Chapter 5

Little did Ninten know, they were not alone.

There was some sort of presence in the area around them, but the capped boy had not noticed it while in the safety of Claus. As the Psi users walked, the taller had noticed something Ninten had nearly walked past.

"Hey, do you wanna get something?" Claus asked, pointing a thumb to an ice cream shop on the other side of the street. Ninten shrugged, then took a step off the sidewalk. The ginger took this as a yes and followed behind him.

As they reached the shop, Claus opened the door and held it for the shorter.

"How sweet." Ninten teased, walking into the building. The older just stuck out his tongue, retracting it back into his mouth as he shut the door. He chuckled slightly as the other looked at the choices of ice cream.

"Oreo I assume?" Claus smirked. Ninten turned to face him and smiled back.

"You know me so well."

As the hunt went on, Claus noticed a figure staring through the window out of the corner of his eye, when He looked over, the unknon creature had hid from sight, but it wasn't fast enough for the boy to not spot. Claus narrowed his eyes, suddenly pulled away from his thoughts as Ninten spoke up.

"Found it!" he shouted triumphantly, holding a container of oreo flavored ice cream. Claus chuckled quietly.

"You look like that monkey who held Simba in the Lion King." Ninten had not realized it, so he pulled the container to his chest. He pouted for a second before walking to the counter to pay for the frozen treat. After that was done, the brunet looked over to his companion.

"Do you have a spoon?"

"Oh my gods, can't you wait?" Claus groaned playfully. Ninten frowned, mumbling something incoherent. The two walked out of the shop, and started their way towards Claus' home. Ninten apparently couldn't help himself, so he popped the lid and dug into it with his fingers. The redhead rolled his eyes and playfully punched the younger's arm, causing him to make a high pitched squeal.

"Don't do that!" Ninten whined, his mouth full of ice cream.

"Did you ever learn not to talk with your mouth stuffed?" Claus laughed, as a response the capped rammed into him, causing him to nearly fall over./p

"Damn." the ginger said, creating a paranoid Ninten.

"As if you don't talk with your mouth full." The brunet muttered. Claus shrugged, admitting the fact.

Both boys whipped around as a sound startled them; the rustling of a bush nearby. Claus gestured Ninten to stay put, then slowly walked towards the bush. As he drew near, the bush stopped moving, but that didn't stop him. He pulled back the leaves to find an envelope, wrapped in a neat bow. Claus reached for the envelope, when he got yanked forward. The boy let out a shriek, trying to pull back from the force. Ninten had walked up behind him, grabbing his waist and pulling with it. Eventually, Claus had broke free, tumbling backwards into Ninten's arms. He stood up, then helped the other up as well.

Ninten looked back at the bush, only to find a person wearing a ski mask to glance back at them. He latched onto Claus' hand and dragged him away, attempting to save him from the guy. Claus pulled away and popped out his wings. he took hold of Ninten and took off into the sky. Some sort of weapon flew past the gingers head, nearly making contacted. Ninten watched and figured out that it was a knife.

Claus activated his boosters, and rocketed to his house. As they reached the front porch, Claus landed and put Ninten down. He retracted his wings, and ran inside with Ninten, slamming the door shut. Claus locked it and tried to control his breathing.

"What happened to you two...?" Lucas asked, emerging from upstairs. The blond gasped as he saw Ninten, who looked as if he'd seen a ghost. Ninten ran face first into Claus' chest, letting out a whimper. The older's response was to slowly rub circles on his back.

"Is everything alright...? The door was slammed pretty- What happened?" Ness stepped downstairs, his expression switched from confusion, to worry. Ninten did not respond, letting out deep breaths into Claus' shirt. The redhead however did, but was hesitant to do so.

"We were attacked, by some psychopath sitting in a bush."

"Oh my gods. Did he hurt you?" Lucas panicked, running towards the two to check for injuries. Claus rebelled and pushed his brother away.

"No damage done, but the tip of my hair was most likely shaved off by the knife he chucked."

Ness and Lucas were speechless, unable to find the right thing to say.

"He chucked a knife?!" Ness shouted, grabbing his baseball bat and heading towards the door, Lucas protested by grabbing him by the arm.

"Don't go Ness...!" He pleaded, pulling his friend away from the door. Ness muttered a fine, then carelessly dropped his bat onto the ground.

Ninten quietly mumbled something through Claus' shirt, backing away. Claus raised an eyebrow as the shorter pulled out his phone. Ninten texted a message before putting his phone away:

Bandanaboy: Can I get picked up?

Stuttering Nerd: Sure... When?

Bandanaboy: Like, now?

Stuttering Nerd: Oh, alright.

"I'm heading home." Ninten spoke, putting his phone in his pocket. "You can come if you want Claus."

Claus nodded. "Sure. If you want me to."

A knock sounded at the door, Ness walked towards it with his bat. He peered through the peephole, dropping his bat as he unlocked and opened the door.

It was dark when Lloyd had arrived, and Ness gestured him politely to come inside. As he stepped in, Lloyd noticed that Ness locked the door, causing him to feel uneasy in his surroundings.

"Why did you ask me to come for you?" The nerd asked, steadying his glasses.

"Some one tried to murder us." Claus spoke up. Lloyd's eyes widened behind his glasses.

"W-What?" The white-haired boy stuttered, He opened his mouth to speak, but Ninten answered his unsaid question.

"He chucked a knife at us, missing a centimeter of Claus' head. Oh, and is it okay if Claus comes with us. He's got weapons."

Lloyd seemed confused as Claus lifted his arm, changing it into a small cannon.

"This'll help a lot if that bastard comes near us again." He stated. Lucas glared.

"Language."

"Sorry."

Lloyd made his way to the door, waving his friends over towards him. As they walked out, they heard the latch of the lock behind them. Claus never bothered to change his cannon back, knowing it would probably come in hand. Ninten had a tight grip on the nerd's arm, getting ready to use a PK fire. Lloyd pulled out a ray gun, holding it in his free hand.

Claus yelped, out causing the others to jerk their heads his way. He had fallen to the ground, gripping his human arm with the transformed robotic one. Lloyd readied his gun, guarding the other two. The boy turned to Ninten, who held out Claus' arm. Lloyd spotted a deep cut, which slowly turned into a scab as both boys worked together on a healing spell.

Movement caught Lloyd's eye, turning towards the direction. He aimed the gun around the area, when Claus caught his attention by snatching his arm. The ginger lifted both boys up as if they were two small children. He activated his wings and took off. Lloyd let out a high pitched scream, obviously terrified by heights. He clung onto Claus' T-shirt and prayed that he wouldn't let go.

Before they knew it, they were inside of their home. Lloyd fell to the ground as Claus put him down, his head spinning from the flight.

"We could've teleported!" He complained, slowly getting back to his feet. As Claus tried to put Ninten down, he resisted, teleporting right back into his arms.

"Carry me to bed." He playfully teased, giving Claus a nice shade of red on his cheeks.

"Why can't Lloyd do it...?" He rejected, spreading the blush over to the other freckled.

"I-I'm not strong..." Lloyd stuttered, holding up his hands in defence. The twin sighed and hesitantly carried the tired boy to his bed.

"Can you stay the night?" Ninten asked, pulling the covers over him. Claus shrugged and texted his brother.

ChemiraClaus: Can I spend the night?

Sunflower: Can Ness spend the night?

ChemiraClaus: As long as you use separate beds.

Sunflower: Claus! Ew! I would never do that! Stop being so overprotective

ChemiraClaus: Calm down, I was joking. I just don't want you complaining about a sore ass.

Sunflower: As if you won't give Ninten one.

Claus' face flushed a deep red, and Ninten was curious

"What happened?" He asked "You're a human tomato."

"Nothing..." Claus said, quicker than he wanted. His phone was suddenly pulled away from him, as the brunet used telekinesis to take it.

"Ninten! Stop!" Claus pleaded, but his companion continued to look at his phone. Ninten looked up, a blush appearing on his face.

"You two are nasty." He stated, moving over for Claus to fit. Lloyd walked into the room to say goodnight, then turned of the bedroom light as he left.

"Goodnight Clausy!" Ninten whispered cheerfully, Causing the redhead to growl in annoyance.

"Night." He said hesitantly, before both boys drifted into sleep
