TW/CW- Cracking bones. Inexplicit. 

Eret groaned, leaning against one of his towers in front of his castle.

He had a massive headache.

Eret screwed his eyes shut behind his glasses. He pressed his forehead against the andesite.

He hissed in pain when something stung his back.

Or well, his shoulder blades.

Then his forearms began to itch. Eret slid down onto the ground and brought his knees to his chest.

"Eret?"

Eret opened his eyes and looked up.

Tubbo stood in front of him, looking concerned.

"Are you okay?"

"Oh, uh," He winced at another sharp pain from his back. "Not really?"

Tubbo squatted down so he was eye-level with the king.

"Well, what's wrong?"

Eret opened his mouth to speak, but yelped in pain instead when something broke through the cloth of his robes. Whatever it was pressed against the back of his chestplate, which he quickly took off.

Tubbo gasped.

A pair of golden wings spread out behind Eret. On the back were red patches lined with white, similar to his robes. Eret's forearms were now covered in golden scales, the ends of his fingers pointed and claw-like. Eret took off his helmet and rested his head against the tower. He felt drained.

"Holy shiT-" Tubbo yelped, clutching his head.

Eret shoved himself off of the wall, knee-walking closer to Tubbo.

"Are you okay?" Eret looked the teenager over.

"My head hurts."

Eret rubbed his shoulder in a comforting way. "It'll be over soon."

Tubbo winced.

Eret hissed and backed up a bit, his own head beginning to hurt again.

Horns curled out of the top of their skulls.

Eret's was a deep gold color, a curled shape backwards. Tubbo's were like that of a ram's, curling around his face, then twisting again to go outwards.

"Ugh." Eret groaned.

"E-Eret.." Tubbo glanced at his arms, then at Eret. "What's going on?"

"I don't know," Eret curled his wings around his sides.

Then a tail curled around his side. It flicked slightly.

"This is scaring me." Eret mumbled.

"Me too." Tubbo shuddered. 

The president bent forward and dug his fingers- claws? -into the ground. Spikes shoved out of Tubbo's clothing, varying in size. He yelled in pain.

Eret sighed. 

------------------

Ghostbur hummed, sitting in his library writing. Schlatt hovered beside him, looking over his shoulder.

"Are you ever gonna tell me what you're writing about?" The ghost with ram horns asked, ears flicking.

"No. Not until it's done."

"Whyy?"

"Because I want it to be a surprise."

Schlatt huffed and crossed his arms.

"Ow-"

Schlatt glanced to Wilbur.

"Are you okay?" 

"I don't know. My back started to hurt."

Schlatt blinked.

The ghost with horns hissed in pain.

Dark gray scales now covered both of their forearms, fingers pointed and sharp.

"Wh-what's going on?" Wilbur yelped, staring at his hands.

"I don't know Wil."

A pair of wings shoved out of Wilbur's sweater, making him yell. Schlatt gasped as two large spikes grew out on his shoulder blades.

"What the hell is going on?!" Wilbur screamed

"I don't know!" Schlatt curled in on himself.

-----------

Eret curled his wings around him like a bat, resting his forehead on his knees.

Tubbo was leaned on the wall beside him the best he could with the spikes that followed his spine.

"I wish I knew what was going on." Tubbo sighed.

"So do I, Tubbo." 

They were silent for a moment, then Eret gasped.

"Do you think anyone else is having this problem?"

Tubbo perked up as Eret unfurled his wings.

"Maybe Dream knows what's going on!" Tubbo gasped.

"Or Sam."

"Someone has to know what's going on." Tubbo stood up quickly, reaching out a hand for Eret to take. Similar to Eret, he had a tail that snaked behind him. Though his had spikes on the end.

Eret took his hand and stood. "I'll ask in chat."


<The_Eret> Hey uh, anyone else growing wings or horns or something???

<WilburSoot>  Yeah. I have wings and Schlatt has these weird rock-looking things on his back.

<Dream> What?

<awesamdude> Wait, what's going on??

<The_Eret>  We don't know. Tubbo and I have tails and horns.
