The Morning
Ther sun rose the next morning bright and early. The first to awaken is of course Morality. He rubbed his eyes, put on his glasses and got ready for the day.
Morality decided to cook everyone breakfast. He decided on chocolate chip pancakes and blueberry muffins. Setting to work he busied himself in the kitchen trying to stay as quiet as possible.
Slowly one by one the others awoke. Thomas and his friends moved to the dining table and sat around chat over tea and coffee, excited about what they would see today. Deciet slinked his way over to a chair and sat quietly drinking black coffee. The Duke skipped in giggling to himself while drinking his pumpkin spice latte causing Deciet to raise his eyebrows suspicious.
Logic walked in his nose in a book and sat reeading. His book callled Anxiety for Dummies. He was very interested in the infomation about fight, flight or freeze when it came to anxiety. Anxiety shuffled in with his hood up, rubbing his eyes and flopped down into an empty chair next to Thomas who glanced at him and smiled. Morality brought Anxiety a coffee and placed a plate of chocolate chip pancakes down on the table.
"Thanks" murmured Anxiety.
"Your welcome Anx" Morality beamed down at him.
Suddenly they all heard a very feminine scream comming from the bedroom area. Concerned they all look towards the door leading there except the Duke who burst into maniacal laughter.
They heard Creativity stomping towards the kitchen and had to choke back laughter when they saw him. His hair was fluro orange with glitter throughout and he was wearing a bright fluro pink tank top and fluro orange short shorts.
"WHO DID THIS!" Creativity raged. "IT WAS YOU WASN'T IT ANXIETY! YOU ARE A MONSTER!"
"N-n-no, i-i-it wasn't, I-I-I-I sw-w-w-ear" Anxiety stuttered backing away from the advancing side.
Creativity kept advancing until he had Anxiety backed up into a wall. Anxiety was shaking badly, eyes darting around for an escape. Thomas, his friends, Logic and Morality were trying to get Creativity to back up. Deciet had positioned himself in a way that he could pull Anxiety away if he was forced to. The Duke was glaring at his brother Creativity and was stalking up behind him taking out his mace incase he needed it.
SMACK.
Creativity punched Anxiety across the face so hard he would have fallen to the floor if Deciet hadn't of grabbed him and pulled him behind him. Morality looked shocked and about to cry at the sight of the violence. Logic moved over to Morality to stop him from trying to get into the conflict. Thomas's friends all looked shocked but the boys moved to form a wall between the two sides. The girls moved to check on the now silently crying Anxiety, a deep bruise. Thomas looked shocked but then angry.
"Creativity! That is enough!" Thomas shouted fed up with Creativity's attitude towards Anxiety. The Duke having enough of the situation used his mace to knock Creativity out.
Everyone looked at the Duke shocked then turned to check on Anxiety. Anxiety was shaking with silently tears flooding down his face as he held the side that was hit. Anxiety wouldn't look anyone in the eyes.
Morality ran over and put his arms around Anxiety pulling his face into his chest. Rubbing his back.
"It's ok now, you're safe now, I've got you" Morality murmured as he gently rocked Anxiety from side to side. Anxiety continued to cry.
Talyn came over with an ice pack and handed it to Anxiety to place on his quickly darkening bruise. Twenty minutes later Anxiety was calmed down slightly but still wouldn't speak or look at anyone. Morality got everyone to sit down and everyone started eating the now cold breakfast thinking of the mornings events.
Ten minutes later Creativity started to come round from where they left him on the floor.
"Creativity, into the loungeroom please" Thomas stated sternely.
Anxiety flinched as Creativity walked behind him to get to the loungeroom. Morality grabbed Anxiety's hand and rubbed the palm soothingly.
Thomas observed everything as he followed Creativity into the loungeroom.
"What did you think you were doing!" Thomas said firmly.
"LOOK WHAT HE DID TO ME! I'M HIDEOUS!" Creativity shouted.
"Keep your voice down. This was a prank. What proof do you have that Anxiety did this?" Thomas asked sternly.
"None, but he totally did it" Creativity pouted.
"No it was pretty clear to everyone else that he didn't do it. You are going to aplogize to Anxiety for punching him." Thomas stated.
"I will not." Creativity argued looking away.
"Well then when we are not watching the videos or eating meals you are to be confined to your bedroom. You will serve this punishment until you apologize to Anxiety and actually mean it. If we finish the videos and are sent back before you apologize you shall be grounded for three months. Go to your room and stay there. I will send for you when we start the videos. Here is your breakfast" Thomas stated firmly handing him a single blueberry muffin.
Creativity grumbled as he stomped back towards his room.
Thomas sighed running his hands down his face before walking back into the kitchen.
"Creativity will be spending all breaks in his room until further notice" he announced so that they all new about the punishment.
"T-T-T-Thomas I s-s-swear that I d-d-d-didn't prank h-h-him" Anxiety stuttered looking at the table.
Thomas walked around the table to where Anxiety sat and bent down and grabbed Anxiety's chin lightly to get him to look him.
"Anxiety I know you didn't do this. I believe you. You have no need to be scared of me I am not going to punish you" Thomas stated calmly.
Thomas gave Anxiety a small smile and was thrilled when he recieved a extremely small one back. Thomas stood back up straight and looked around at the others.
"Who did prank Creativty and why did you do it?" he asked.
"I did! He is so mean to others, especially Anxiety, so whenever he's mean to others I be mean to him. That's how it works!" The Duke smiled at Thomas.
"Your not in trouble but I do want you to tell Creativity that you were the one thta pranked him" Thomas stated.
"Of course" twirled the Duke.
"We should probably start the videos again." Lilly stated.
"Yes lets, Logic can you go and get Creativity from his room." Thomas stated.
"Of course Thomas" Logic stated.
Everyone left the kitchen to the loungeroom.
