Another challenge for AsylumClan! :D
Everything belongs to rightful owners. This one's based on Creepypasta, needed a new change from the whole 'Warrior's theme...
It was dark in the room, very dark, she had ordered for it to be that way so that the baby wouldn't be blinded as soon as it was born.
Star-Eyes grumbled under her breath as she found her way out, she had just recently checked on Priscilla. Slender would want to know that his expecting love was okay.
The blind grey creature made her way to the entity's room & rested her hand on the door, she knocked before she heard footsteps coming from inside.
"Yes, how is she?"
A smooth, but tired voice sounded as the door shifted open, Star-Eyes turned her blind gaze to face the sound.
"She is doing great, but you need to stop worrying, it'll be no good for when your child arrives. Relax now, because you won't have time to do it later when you're chasing after your mini-me."
Guilt & embarrassment swept off the creature and alerted Star-Eyes' senses.
"I'm trying... But my child will be more than welcomed into my room, if it helps Priscilla-"
"Enough!" Star-Eyes lashed, she felt Slender recoil at her harsh tone but the blind medic kept going. "Priscilla won't get any better with you watching her or moping around all the time, should I make Sunlight send you out for a quick patrol with your youngest brother?"
She let her lips curve upward into a nasty smile as the tall creature quietly snickered.
"Maybe, it could do some good. How are you & Starlight managing?"
His tone suddenly soft, Star-Eyes let her shoulders relax from their constant tensed state; she knew that Slender was only looking out for them because of their disabilities but it did help for him to ask from time to time.
"Starlight's doing fine. I've told her not to strain her leg too much but she's wonderful with helping me around."
Star-Eyes smiled stayed as she realised how much the crippled proxy had been making herself useful around the mansion.
"I'm doing fine, I guess, feeling a lot older actually..."
Star-Eyes trailed off as she thought of the pain in climbing endless stairs & having trouble to breathe every time she got a vision.
"Any more visions?"
Slender cut into her thoughts, the blind medic jumped at his sudden & urgent thoughts.
"No, none yet, don't worry."
Star-Eyes shook her head, footsteps sounded from down the hallway & Midnight's voice rang out.
"Sir, Sunlight wants to know if its safe to return to the waterfalls for today."
Star-Eyes groaned inwardly as Slender sighed and passed her to address his proxy.
"Uh, I & Trender will go, tell him that. You can stay here & guard the mansion."
Midnight nodded, his star-dotted hood bouncing on his head.
"Got it, Sunny!"
Midnight turned & raced down the stairs to inform the second in command. Slender turned back to Star-Eyes as he called back:
"Watch Priscilla, I'll be back soon."
Star-Eyes felt a frown form itself on her face, would she dare tell anyone? Star-Eyes knew how much he loved Priscilla, but Star-Eyes herself had loved Slender before the discovery for their child. Star-Eyes hid her feelings well, she could handle this...
Whatever happened to Priscilla & Slender wasn't up to her, but she would defend their child as if it were her own, all she wanted was a second chance.
A chance to be normal again before the accident that left her the disfigured being with terrible secrets.
Star-Eyes sighed as she trudged back down to her lab, Starlight would be waiting for her, better to prepare for the cold weather than dwell on things that seemed impossible.
