Another boring day was passing through. Nothing interesting happening. No problems arising. Just a calm springs day really. Which resulted in a lot of nagging and whining from the younger guardians, who were bored out of their marbles.
Moon eventually was getting fed up off having to deal with the two boys. Rolling his eyes in the back off his head before he got his hood and grabbed the strings, pulling the elastic around his face so now all that was there was his midnight black hair.
Moon soon felt a huge weight on his back. He sighed in annoyance. "Dream stop pushing my back so I get up." He spoke, but it was muffled and caused Nightmare and Dream to laugh a little.
"But were bored." Dream complained, flopping on the back of Moon. "Can we play a game?" He asked attempting to tug the hood off of Moon's head.
"Play a game of Hide and Seek." Moon told the two before bringing Dream other his shoulder and sat him on the ground.
Nightmare folded his arms in annoyance. "We already played hide and seek." Nightmare stated also sitting on the floor next to Dream. "What else can we do instead?"
Moon undid his hood, looking up at the tree where Star was sat on a branch, looking other the village. Only noticing now that one of the twin tails on his cape were missing. "Hey Star!" He called up as Star looked down towards him.
"Yeah?" Star said in a questioning tone. Moon saw how drained Star looked, having light bags under his eyes.
"What happened to your, you know cape?" Moon inquired, gesturing to the cape.
Star panicked a little, feeling a bead of sweat then run down his head. "Oh you know... I must of lost some of it in the village." He scratched the back off his head.
Moon squinted his eyes, shaking his head in disbelief. "Don't lie."
"Honest" Star quickly blurted out. "Honest I didn't even know it was gone." He continued.
Moon raised a brow, looking at Star's clearly nervous expression. "C'mon I'm your brother. I can tell your lying."
Nightmare soon climbed up the tree. Going up the tree quickly right to the top. Dream followed afterwards. "What are we doing?" Dream asked.
"Gonna find Star's missing cape part." Nightmare replied, scanning the village area.
"Oh okay." Dream agreed also looking around.
Before Nightmare went down the tree. "Let's go down to the village" Nightmare suggested, Dream still following behind him. "We'll be back soon." Nightmare waved to Moon and Star as he and Dream ran down the hill towards the village town.
The wind suddenly went through the tree. A few leaves falling down.
"Star. C'mon tell me the truth. You didn't just loose it in the village." Moon suddenly got up. "You're much more careful then that, especially when it come's to that cape." Moon continued crossing his arms.
Star looked off. "Well I did." He grumbled, still staying firm with the story he had made up.
Moon soon got up the tree and took hold of Star, accidently brushing against where Star's wound was still attempting to heal.
"Ow!" Star exclaimed a little pushing Moon's hands away. "Don't touch me there." He mumbled quickly.
Moon then saw that the fabric had teared. A look of concern instantly went other him as he saw the cut that was relatively deep. "Why didn't you tell me about this!?" He grabbed the button Star's cape and brought their faces closers to one another.
Star tried to shove him off.
"You know I ended up like this cause I didn't tell you about stuff like this!" Moon exclaimed, his eyes flaring a light blue.
"That's why I didn't want to tell you!" Star shouted back, clasping his head in his hands. "I didn't want to tell you, in case you got mad at me for having a wound that wasn't as bad as you use to have!"
Moon removed Star's hands from his head. "Look here mister." He instructed, as Star looked up at him.
"I never ever, ever want you to experience what I went through. Your always gonna be my little brother and our lack of communication is what severed our bond. Let's not do that again." Moon held his brother's hands. "Fix our mistakes and help the apple incident to never happen."
Star wiped his eyes a little then. "I'm sorry." He apologised.
"Don't be sorry." Moon told him. "Now who's the asshole who did this to you."
Star laughed a little. "I don't know. Though they had an accent like the people in Underfell." Star recalled.
"Right now we gotta heal you, since we lost our healing magic a long time ago, we'll have to ask well ourselves." Moon muttered out looking out at the side of the tree. "Crap!" He soon remembered that the two had gone to the village. "Okay, I'm gonna go and get them back here. Will you be okay on your own?"
Star nodded. "Get them quick." He waved as Moon climbed down.
"I will." Moon waved before jogging down the hill.
Dream and Nightmare currently had no luck finding the missing tail of Star's cape, as they looked in every nook and cranny for where it could be. But they didn't find any trace of where the cape could be.
"Maybe we should ask people if they've seen anything." Dream suggested after a while.
Nightmare nodded. "Okay." He agreed. "But I'm not asking." He added quickly as he and Dream got off the small ledge they were sat on.
Dream walked up to the nearest person there, ironically they were selling bits of fabric. "Excuse me?"
The young lady who had given Star the basket earlier was running the stall, looked down to see Dream. "Hello, can I help you sweetie?" She crouched down to meet his level.
"I was wondering if you've seen like a bit of yellow fabric with suns on the end?" Dream asked, using his hands to try and explain what he and Nightmare were looking for.
The young lady shook her head. "No dear, I haven't." She told Dream.
"Oh okay. Thank you for your time!" Dream smiled happily waving as he then went to go back to where Nightmare... was supposed to be waiting for him. "Night?" He looked around puzzled. Nightmare wouldn't of just ditched him.
In the short conversation Dream had, Nightmare had been grabbed by something and dragged off somewhere. The not so nice part of the village. The person who had grabbed him was darting down alleyways and avoiding the direction of where people were.
The person had put their hand over Nightmare's mouth to keep him quite. Nightmare was very scared as he was soon chucked onto the ground and scraping his knees. He got up quickly looking around to see if anyone was nearby, that would help him. The back off his collar was then yanked and his back crashed with the stone wall.
Nightmare let out a yelp off surprise. He looked at the people who were attacking him, but they were all wearing mask that covered their facial features.
"Please stop." Nightmare pleaded as he looked up tearfully at his attackers, shaking in fear.
"Why should we?" The stranger from the other day asked, spitting in Nightmares face. "You've made all of us suffer, just cause the folks here haven't realised the misery you caused doesn't mean we haven't." A swift kick to Nightmares chest.
Someone else in the group of attackers then yelled. "It's his freaky brother!" Some of them began fleeing.
Not quick enough for Moon though.
Moon was fuming. Thank goodness he had decided to go to the sketchy side of the village first.
"Oi you lot get back here!" He yelled at a few that darted around the corner. "If you don't then you're all cowards!" He threatened.
"Ya think your tough!" Moon's hood was grabbed. Resulting in a very, very quick and firm punch in to the strangers gut. Dragging the stranger off and slamming them into the wall.
"Yeah I do." Moon growled. "I don't go around beating up kids." Moon felt a punch to his mouth and a few more landed on his face.
Moon felt something burst from his back as a tendril wrapped around the strangers neck and threw him away from himself and Nightmare. As it then got into a bloody brutal fight. The stranger ended up retreating after a while.
Moon wiped the blood from his mouth and nose. "You okay?" Moon went other to Nightmare, who was crouched down in a corner. "Did they hurt you in anyway?" Moon continued, checking other Nightmare.
Nightmare nodded, remembering what Star had told him. "Yes. They threw me on the ground and I scrapped my knee's and kicked my chest." Nightmare hugged Moon quickly.
Moon hummed then. "You'll be okay." Moon said in a promising tone. "Does it hurt really badly?" He asked.
Nightmare shook his head. "No. It doesn't hurt too badly." Nightmare assured.
"We'll heal you later. I grabbed some sweets from the tree have a few. It'll give you some hp." Moon brought out some colourful sweets.
Nightmare took a few and ate some. "Thank you." He thanked wiping his eyes still.
"Hey. Don't mention it." Moon assured. "Now where's Dream?" Moon stood up and took hold of Nightmare's hand, getting out of the dark alleyway.
Nightmare looked around. "I don't know..." He mumbled.
Moon nodded. "Can you head back home to the tree? I'll be back to the Tree soon with Dream." Moon looked at the Tree that would be a few metres away.
"Okay." Nightmare complied, hugging Moon quickly before going on home.
Moon, had a soft smile. Looking around the village going towards the centre where a few people were gathered around and he heard, an all too familiar person crying. Moon soon saw that Dream was getting comforted by the young lady from earlier.
"Hey Dream." Moon spoke up quickly, getting a few weird looks from the people. However, he couldn't forget the look of relief Dream had as he got up and ran other to Moon.
Dream's eyes were covered in tears as he even buried his face in Moon's hoodie. "I thought I was about to be abounded." Dream was soon picked up by Moon.
"You won't ever be abounded. Now were gonna head home. Thank you ladies for looking after my little brother." Moon quickly thanked before going home.
The sun was setting anyway, so it was time to rest from all the chaos that happened in the spam off a few hours.
