Sun dragged Moon's body out of the black goo, grunting softly. "That's- that's not water-" he said between breaths. "How long have we been in there?!"
Moons groaning could be heard as he slowly woke up.
"Moon? Moon!.. Are you alright..?-" Sun asked, shaking Moon slightly.
He groaned again. "Yeah, I- ugh- I'm fine-" he grumbled as he sat up. "Uff.. what were we in?!.."
"I- I don't know- it's like- some- black goo?! I really don't know-" Sun said, laughing nervously.
Suddenly, Eclipse's—or more so Solar Flare's (original)—body was seen nearby. Sun went over and dragged it out of the gunk while Moon watched and recovered, eventually getting up.
"When was he here?" Moon questioned, staring at the limp body.
"I don't know.. I don't remember seeing him.." He paused. "He shouldn't even be here! He was with Solar and they were both far away from the daycare!"
"Weird.." Moon muttered. He then shrugged, not really caring much. He walked over to Eclipse's lifeless body and nudged it roughly. "Wake up idiot."
Eclipse groaned, getting up on one knee. "Where..?" he muttered, looking around the place.
"Ruin's dimension," Moon answered. "Now what are you doing here?"
"Y- Yeah.. aren't you supposed to be with Solar?" Sun added.
"Oh fu- g-" Eclipse sighed in annoyance. "Stupid portal thing, accidentally activated it.."
".....What do you mean portal? Did you destroy our only way out?!" Moon exclaimed.
"No! Well- Kinda, but it isn't that bad!" Eclipse replied, rolling his eyes. "We'll get out of here either way, stop worrying your ass off."
Moon scoffed while Sun stepped in. "L- Let's just continue to find a way out of here and away from.. that," he stated, gesturing to the black gunk.
"Yeah- What the FUCK is that anyway?!" Eclipse hissed. "It's like- in my damn systems!"
"Like we know," Moon replied harshly, rolling his eyes. "Now get up, idiot."
Eclipse sighed in annoyance and stood upright, scanning his arms and legs a bit for any damages and such. Everything was fine besides a few old scratches and such along with his movement being slightly limited. Like he mentioned, the gunk seeped deep into his systems meaning it most likely got in his joints which made them a little bit stiff.
"FUCK!" Solar exclaimed in anger, immediately going to grab stuff to fix the portal as quickly as he could.
Bloodmoon was watching from the side, just enjoying the chaos.
"Are you going to help me or what?" Solar asked coldly. Bloodmoon rolled his eyes but started to get to work, following Solar's instructions.
Groaning was heard. Just in time.
"I hated that-" Moon and Eclipse murmured in unison. The two snapped their heads at each other before Eclipse just shrugged it off. Moon on the other hand.. who knows, really.
"Well that's surprising.." Nice Eclipse muttered to himself. "Portal's fried, but at least you guys made it out."
"So where is the little shit?" Eclipse asked out of the blue.
"Who?" Sun and Moon said in unison.
"Right. I got help from a certain.. someone, which—"
"Which is Bloodmoon. The worse red skull," Eclipse interrupted, looking at his other version with a blank stare.
"Sorry, you got help from him?!" Moon exclaimed, agitated from the idea.
"Look. I needed the extra pair of hands. You guys would have probably been stuck in time if he didn't help me fix the portal that HE-" Nice Eclipse pointed to Eclipse, "-broke."
"LISTEN," Eclipse started, "I didn't know it was even capable of doing that! I thought it wasn't finished!"
"I did mention that it could be used as a one way trip, yes?"
"......"
"Exactly."
Sun cut in, "O- Okay well uh-" He glanced around. "Where is Bloodmoon, firstly..?"
"Somewhere. Probably running around already.." Solar replied.
"How did you even manage to get him to help you?" Moon asked. Sun nodded, also wanting to know how.
"I found a weak spot in his body. Offered to fix it for him in exchange for his help," Solar answered.
"You let our only chance of getting rid of that little shit get away?!" Moon hissed.
"Would you want your ass stuck in time for possibly hundreds of years?" Eclipse spoke before the nicer him could.
Moon went silent for a moment. "Fine."
Sun and Nice Eclipse both blinked twice, taking notice of how Eclipse actually protected someone that isn't himself. Moon stayed oblivious to that fact and Eclipse noticed the other two. He scoffed, but didn't retaliate much.
"Right.. so what now? I- I mean, we're back, but Ruin and Bloodmoon are still out there.." Sun asked, shifting slightly.
"We do the obvious. Fight back," Eclipse stated calmly.
"Well of course, genius. But how," Moon said as he glared at Eclipse.
"T- The virus," Sun said, "we can try.. cure him I guess?"
"Well it isn't a bad idea.." Solar murmured. "It shouldn't be too hard I suppose."
"So are we going to get a move on or what?" Eclipse said as he rolled his eyes. "I'm bored standing here."
"How about you shut up first then—"
"Moon, it's okay. Let's- Let's just get going," Sun intervened.
"Yeah, let's go," Solar said as he started to walk. "Ruin is our top priority right now, we can deal with Bloodmoon and everything else later."
"Fine.. is there anything else we missed?" Moon asked as he started to walk with Solar, the other two ray heads following behind.
Solar sighed. "Well, Monty's now ruined."
"Wow," Moon said nonchalantly, giving an unamused hun right after.
"How did that..?" Sun asked, fidgeting with his hands slightly.
"The red rodent," Eclipse replied nonchalantly.
"Why am I not surprised.." Moon muttered, rolling his eyes.
After some time, they figured out the 'cure' and started to get a lead. Though, they needed a plan to execute this.. and then they had to deal with some others. But like Solar said, Ruin's first.
Eclipse was silent for most of the time, only talking to answer questions when Solar wasn't—which wasn't much. He was.. more caring than he normally was. It didn't show in his tone, but more in his actions and words. Then there was Solar flare. He kept mental notes of this.
"Right, so what's the plan?"
"Go in, try negotiating, and then just- go for it."
"How beautiful and well-planned."
"Shut up."
