//I HATE THIS TITLE!!!!//

George and Dream have fallen asleep.

Skeppy and Bad were wide awake.

Skeppy wishing for answers and Bad too scared to give them.

"Do you want to know who I was? Do really want to know?" Bad asked quietly.

Skeppy hesitated before nodding.

Bad let out a breathe didn't know he was holding. "My name is Darryl. I don't know why I was chosen, but I was sent here to save you and your kingdom from The End."

"But The End is a myth." Skeppy said.

"No, it's very real and now I know that your father was going to bring it to take full control of every kingdom and use yours as a hub."

"Why do you keep saying 'my kingdom'?" Skeppy asked.

Bad finally looked at Skeppy. "Your father is in prison. You're the rightful ruler."

Skeppy froze. "I'm anything but ready for a responsibility like that. I can barely make decisions on my own..."

Bad places a gentle hand on Skeppy's shoulder. "I'll be here to help you. Just because I have my memories doesn't mean I'll leave you."

Skeppy smiled but his smile quickly faded. "I've heard that Angels have powers like George and Dream have... is that true?"

Bad nodded. "We have more than them too, but we can't really share what we see."

Skeppy sighed and they sat in silence for a few moments.

"Do you have wings?"

"Yes I do."

"Could you... possibly..?"

Bad laughed quietly. "I think I could fly you around."

Skeppy smiled a bit as he grabbed Bad's hand and basically dragged him out.

"Skeppy! Slow down!" Bad said.

Skeppy ran into his room with Bad and went over to his balcony.

The sky was clear and the stars shown bright while moonbeams danced as far as the eye could see.

Bad stepped out onto the balcony his wings tucked behind him.

Skeppy stares in awe. "You look like an-"

"Angel?" Bad laughed.

"Yes... pun intended!"

Bad and Skeppy laughed. Once they stopped, Bad held his hand out to Skeppy. He stared at Bad's hand then back at him. "You wanted to fly right?"

Skeppy nodded and grabbed his hand. Bad pulled Skeppy closer and spread his wings giving on strong beat and they flew.

Skeppy let out a shocked scream and cling to Bad's side. "Skeppy open your eyes! You need to see this!"

Sure, Bad had seen sunsets and moonlit fields before... but this time he was with someone. Someone he could enjoy it with. Someone he cared for.
