A/N: Hey, there everybody! It's me, MBAV fan66!
So, last chapter we had fairies and evil shadow creatures! What's next for our gang to encounter along their journey to save Benny?
So, this chapter will have a little musical flow to it, as Ethan and Benny sing a duet with one another. Of course, it's one of those scenes were the characters are singing in the plot, but then they don't acknowledge it afterwards. Does that make sense? It's kind a hard to explain, but they do it all the time in movies or even in musicals (which is all the time for that one). Anyways, that's what this scene in the chapter basically is.
I hope you all like it! And as a side note, I put down below who's singing what for you and please bare with me, as it was not easy doing a duet between two people who are in completely different places while singing. :P
Italics = Ethan Singing
Bold = Benny Singing
Bold Italics = Both Singing

It was finally nightfall, as the gang had traveled a good amount of distance after exiting The Dark Forest. It was starting to get late out now, so they all decided to setup camp under the stars for the night, as the moon shone broughtly in the night sky.
It was a pretty nice and relaxing night out, as they all fell asleep quickly, only moments after dinner.
Well...everyone except for one person, that is...
Prince Ethan tossed and turned on his resting place on the ground, as he found it very difficult to sleep. All he could keep thinking about was his beloved Benny and if he was alright. It worried him to no end knowing that he was Alissa's prisoner and what evil torture she may be putting him through. He just hated it all.
Finally getting fed up with all the restless sleep he was getting, Ethan sat up with a sad sigh. He then glanced back up at the stars that shone above him. He could just barely make them out through the tree tops, but they still shone just as brightly. He smiled fondly thinking back on their first date together. The sky looked just as it did back then as it does now.
A few minutes later, he found himself getting up with a stretch as he decided to take a walk around to help clear his mind and to calm his nerves a bit.
Elsewhere back at Alissa's castle, Benny found that he too couldn't sleep that night. He's was too worried about Ethan and the others, but mostly Ethan. He knew how much Alissa had wanted him dead more than anyone in the world. He also knew that she wouldn't stop until he was, too.
He sat there on the edge of his bed, looking down at his chained wrists. Oh, how he wished these stupid things weren't on him right now, restraining him from using his magic. Or else he would've saved everybody the trouble and just blast the damn evil witch's spirit back to the underworld, where she belongs, but he can't.
He missed Ethan greatly...and gazing up into those beautiful memorizing brown eyes of his...and seeing that dazzling smile of his sparkling in the light around him...and those lips. Oh, how he missed the tingling sensation he got every time their lips touched and the warmth he could feel deep down inside of him ever time they kissed. It was like magic. Something right out of a fairytale.
Well...actually, Ethan really was from a fairytale. And right now he was currently in one himself, but you get the picture.
All Benny wanted right now was his dear prince charming. To have and to hold. To cuddle with on those long lonely nights, much like this one...
He sighed sullenly.
He then got up and walked over to the window, taking a seat on it's ledge, as he stared out across the darken land with his mind only on one thing...
"Somewhere out there, beneath the pale moon light. Someone's think of me, and loving me tonight." sang Benny, glancing upward towards the moon.
Ethan strolled around for a bit before coming to a stop to kick a small rock, as he sighed. He then also looked up at the bright moon shining up above that lit up the sky. "Somewhere out there, someone's saying a prayer. That we'll find one another, in that big somewhere out there." sang Ethan, leaning up against a tree as he continued to look up.
He smiled as he imagined Benny's smiling face twinkling there in the sky with the stars. "And even though I know how very far apart we are. It helps to think we might be wishing, on the same bright star."
"And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby. It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky!" sang Benny proudly with all his heart, as he too smiled fondly picturing Ethan's handsome and adorable face in the night sky.
"Somewhere out there, if love can see us through. Then we'll be together, somewhere out there. Out where dreams come true." they both sang in harmony, with all their might as they gradually soften the tone a bit as they got more closer to the end.
Benny had placed a hand on the cool glass of the window as he sang, while at the same time Ethan placed a hand over his heart and looked down. He closed his eyes thinking about how their first date was on a calm and peaceful night much like this one.
Ethan then pushed himself off the tree he was leaning on and walked slowly through the forest with his hands in his pockets. It was as if his body was on autopilot as he walked, remembering all those wonderful sweet moments he had with his one true love, Benny. From the time they first met, up in until Alissa's return and Benny's kidnapping.
The beaming smile that was once on his face, soon fell when his mind reached that unfortunate event. The lonely prince never thought that he could ever hate someone more now than he did Alissa right now for all the chaos she's done brought to their lives.
Benny sat there for a couple of minutes, also lost in his thoughts about all his fond memories with Ethan. He let out a breath that he didn't know he was holding, just thinking about it.
The spell master got up off the window ledge and made his way over to the mirror that hung in the small prison like room. He gazed into it deeply, picturing Ethan coming up behind him and wrapping his arms around him. Benny smiled as it felt as if Ethan really was standing there behind him embracing him with his loving arms.
He wrapped his own arms around himself, imagining the moment in his head and Ethan placing a loving gentle kiss on his cheek. Benny closed his eyes, enjoying the moment, only for him to open them again to find only his reflection standing there alone looking back at him without Ethan there.
His shoulders draped sadly, as he sighed before dropping his arms to his sides and walking back over towards the bed.
Ethan walked aimlessly, as if in a fog or something. He eventually came to a small stream glistening in the bright white glow of the moonlight. He glared down at it sadly as he stared at his lonesome reflection being casted back at him in the moving water down below. He dropped down to his knees to get a better look at it. He could see the longing and great desire for his boyfriend in his eyes and how much it pained him to know that he was being held captive by his archenemy, Alissa.
"And even though I know how very far apart we are. It helps to think we might be wishing, on the same bright star." he sang, dipping his hand in the cool water gingerly as it ran between his fingers.
Benny shivered slightly, as he felt a cool breeze blow through the room. He brought his knees up to his chest as he sat there with his back against the head of the bed. He wrapped himself in his blanket as he sat there still missing his prince with a forlorn look upon his face.
"And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby. It helps to think we're sleeping, underneath the same big sky!" sang Benny, as he looked over at the window from the bed one last time, staring up at the sky full of stars.
He smiled, knowing that he shouldn't let get himself feel down about it because he knew for a fact that Ethan was coming to rescue him and was going to defeat Alissa and all of her dirty little tricks too, just to get him back. Ethan was like a force to be reckon with when it came to his loved ones. And Benny knew in his heart that nothing is more powerful than love and there was no stopping it, either. Try as Alissa might, but in the end they WILL find their way back to one another, and just like in every fairytale, she will be the one to lose.
"Somewhere out there," rang out Ethan's and Benny's voices together.
"If love can see us through!" sang Benny meaningfully, as he closed his eyes while both hands where held over his heart and Ethan's voice quitely coming in the background repeating it as he finished.
Ethan removed his hand from the water, letting it trickle down from his fingers, as he sang. He looked back up and smiled, while singing the repeat of words while Benny's voice held out the word 'through' strongly and harmonously.
"Then we'll be together," sang Benny, coming in immediately after he finished the last line. Ethan than joined him on the word 'together', as their voices blended together in perfect harmony as they finished the melody with it now growing more softer in volume. "somewhere out there. Out where dreams come true."
Benny smiled brightly one last time before finally feeling the urge to sleep. He yawned and fixed his blanket so now that it was completely over him, as he laid down to rest his head on his pillow. It didn't take long for the sweet embrace of sleep to overcome the spell master and consume him completely. He smiled as he thought about seeing Ethan heroically coming in to save him from the wicked witch of the story and whisking him away to their happily ever after ending.
Ethan stood up dusting the dirt off his pants, not helping the small happy smile that displayed itself across his face. He couldn't wait to see his Benny again. And when he does, he was gonna give him the biggest hug and the most passionate kiss ever.
He had to remain hopeful that Benny was alright and that he would see him again. Alissa's evil magic was no match for the love that they shared inside for one another and he was confident that it would be enough to triumph over her evil ways, as well.
Realizing how late it must've been, Ethan decided to head on back to camp before the others noticed he was gone and began to worry.
Once he finally got back to the others, he found that Sarah was awake.
"Where have you been?" she asked.
Ethan shook his head and smiled at her. "Nowhere. I was just restless in my sleep and couldn't sleep properly, so I went for a walk to clear my head a bit." he replied simply.
Sarah smirked knowing exactly why it was he couldn't sleep. "Let me guess, couldn't get a certain goofball of a spell master off your mind, eh Princie?" teased Sarah hintingly with a wink.
She giggled when she saw him blushing and trying desperately not to look so bashful about it, too.
"It seems you've got me, my fine fanged friend." chuckled Ethan, then. He then stopped and frowned a bit.
Sarah saw this and her facial expression soon matched that of his. She walked over to the prince and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Try not to worry so much. Ok? I'm sure he's doing just fine. It's Benny we're talking about, here. He's been through a lot and I'm sure he's not gonna let some silly little kidnapping get in his way, now." she spoke sincerely in a comforting tone.
Ethan looked up at her, seeing the honesty in her eyes.
"He may seem like a defenseless dork at times, but in truth he's one of the strongest people that I know where it counts." smiled Sarah, placing a hand over Ethan heart.
Getting the message, he looked back up at her and smiled, too.
Just then a small bee like insect came flying up behind him and landed on his neck, where it suddenly stung him.
On relfex, he slapped where the strange bug had stung him, crying out in slight discomfort from the small bit of pain it caused.
"Ethan, what wrong?" asked Sarah concernedly to her friend.
When he removed his hand from the back of his neck, he also grabbed the bee thing. He looked down at it, as it laid dead in the palm of his hand. "I think I was stung by a bee?" he answered unsure, not getting why a bee would be out during the night.
Sarah looked down at the strange bug and indeed saw that it was a bee of some sort, but not any that she recognized.
Suddenly, Ethan felt woozy and a bit dizzy as the world around him seemed to spin. He felt really tired and weak, as he staggered a bit trying to keep his balance. He clutched his hand around the held bug.
"Are you alright, Ethan? You don't look so good." she asked worringly, reaching out as if she was going to help him, but didn't as he regained his balance and flashed a weak smile her way, gesturing that he was ok. "You're not allergic to bee stings are you?" she then proceed to ask.
But he shook his head 'no' as beads of sweat began to form across his forehead. The hand that was holding onto the bug, suddenly fell to his side as he dropped the small creature. Not too long afterwards, Ethan found himself falling to the ground, as well. He blacked out upon impact, feeling really hot and ill all of a sudden.
"Oh, my god! Ethan!" shouted Sarah fearfully, as she ran to her friend's side.
A/N: Man! What a way to ruin a perfectly good Bethan chapter, huh? Lol! I done got you all built up with feels and fluff only for it to all be dashed by ending the chapter with such an awful cliff hanger liket that! *deviously laughs* ;P
So, what did you all think about the chapter? The romantic singing scene between Ethan and Benny? And Ethan falling unconscious after being stung by a strange bee? Could this be it for our favorite prince?
Well, then stick around to found out in the next chapter! :D
So, drop me a review and don't be shy to express your inner thoughts about the chapter! :)
Until next time, this is MBAV fan66, who'll be seeing you all around. Bye! :)
