I wrapped the last few loaves of pumpkin bread I made and put them inside a bag. Making sure they would stay all warm. The sun was close to setting, but I wouldn't be back home till morning. I grabbed a second bag putting everything else I needed all together. My books that was I translating, some spare change of clothes, a pillow, blanket. All of it is what I needed for this fun activity for tonight.

A sleepover with all the Leaders.

Everyone accepted the loved the idea. After a few days, we had it planned and ready for tonight. No talking about the current situation at hand, just relaxing together as friends. I have been working so much lately that I haven't had time to do anything fun or relaxing. If I don't count myself reading Comet's book. I made my way out the front door soon enough. I locked it behind me and made my way to the leaders's meeting room. Where we decided to have our party.

The streets were empty as I made my way through them, I couldn't shake my anxiety though as I walked through the streets. My eyes looking out for any Steves who may be passing by. I kept looking behind me but I didn't see any Steves in front of me. I bumped into them. We both quickly stepped back. I bumped into a Yellow Steve.

"I am so sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going." The Yellow Steve looks at me surprised. Then oddly smiles.

"Oh don't worry about it, are you looking for something?" He holds a book up in the air. My eyes widened seeing the book I was working on translating.

"Oh I didn't realize I dropped in, thank you." I reached up to take it back, but he pulled his hand away quickly.

"What's the book about anyways?" He steps away from me and opens the book.

"It's not your business, can I have it back please?" I reached out to take it from him again. He steps back faster than I could reach. I can't match a Yellow Steve's speed. No matter how hard I try.

"Hmm let's see..." He hums before looking over one of the pages I was translating. My heart froze. "I was working hard on crafting my skill with the bow and the new abilities I have found. I hope doing this can better prove to my dear friends how much stronger I have become. To show that despite how my eyes may look I am still their friend and hope for them to have the best-" I kicked under his feet causing him to fall back. I grabbed the book before rushing off into the building. The Yellow Steve didn't dare follow me with the sight of the colorless guard near the entrance of the Rainbow Citadel.

"Sabre? Are you alright?" One of the guards asked me as I held the book close to my chest.

"I'm fine just got spooked by a wild cat. I've been on edge for the past few days." I lied to them. They laugh a little.

"You're not the only one Sabre, come on in everyone else is waiting for you." I sighed with relief as I stepped inside and made my way up the long staircase to the meeting room. I felt a little out of breath when I got to the meeting room.

"Sabre! Thank you for planning this out!" I quickly felt my arms wrap around me. I looked up to see the Indigo Leader. He looked as excited as ever. I smiled at him.

"I'm glad everyone wanted to do this, I know it was a bit rushed." I sighed a bit. He shakes his head.

"No, I think we all needed this." He lets go of me and makes his way back to the Blue Leader. He gives me a small smile. I smiled back at him. In the center of the room we had 10 mats set up, most of them were filled up with blankets and pillows by now. Looks like I was sleeping next to Light. The Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet Leaders already had theirs set up. So did light, of course, I put my first bag down that had all my things. I kept them at the head of the mat.
