Chapter 1: Grieving for dear daddy
Midnight awoke to the sound of crying. Her brother has been doing that since their father was killed by that Hedgehog, Shadow. "Brother, are you okay" she asked as the teenage darkling only shook his head and kept crying (A/N: Yes, Eclipse, in this, is a teen). "Please, brother, Daddy would be upset if you cry, and I'm upset too, so please don't cry" she said as he looked at her, the topaz like irises in the darkness of the rest of his eyes filled to the brim with tears. "How can I, tell me, how can I!? Our father is dead, no one knows how horrible I feel cuz they're also dead, and you're the only family I have left, so how am I supposed to stay cheerful when everyone I knew and loved are dead" he asked as he started sobbing again. It always made Midnight feel oddly sick when he'd be so upset, it confused her. but she, in a way, understood that feeling. "Big brother, it will be okay, he's in better place now" she said as Eclipse only looked at her before crying again, but this time softly. "Maybe the Dark Arm hatchlings might understand, they're like family, aren't they" Midnight asked, her nightgown blillowing eligantly in the wind. "Maybe, but they're asleep, and they need they're rest, they're still children after all" he said calmly. "See, you do too have a soft side" she chirped as the older darkling growled under his breath, baring all of his yellow fangs. He soon turned away and smirked slightly. "Oh, I'll go make a fire, okay, since we're both awake" she exclaimed as she walked deeper into the forest they were already in. As she walked deeper, she cried softly as well. "I knew getting firewood would have been the best excuse for me to cry without him seeing, I don't want him to worry about me" she said before sobbing. Both of her parents died thanks to Shadow, and she'd get her revenge if it wasn't for Eclipse not letting her for fear of her dying as well. She soon heard footsteps as she quickly wiped her eyes of any tears. "You've been crying, haven't you Midnight" Eclipse asked as she slowly nodded, starting to cry again. Once she started, he started as well as theyh both looked at the moon, tears falling as they stargazed. "I miss him, big brother, I want Daddy back, why d-did he have to g-gooo" she said in between sobs. "I d-don't kn-know, lit-little sister, I j-just don't know" he replied as he kept crying. Both Darklings cried themselves to sleep like they had every night since the death of their only family besides the dark arm hatchlings and each other, their father, Black Death. it wasn't uncommon to hear sobbing in the forest anymore. They even cried in their sleep.
