Skys POV:
I was surprised, Husky was standing beside Dell, who was on the ground dead. His eyes seemed void of emotion, but when he turned to us and asked a question, I could hear the guilt in his voice. Hero started to heal him and get rid of the blood.
"Was this trial...to save Dell?" I started to think, it was likely. What other kind of trial could fighting the squids be? She was finally free from whatever kind of thing the squids did to her when she was killed. Hero cleared his throat, and I noticed that he was on the other side of the large room. He had a tattered peice of paper in his hand, the next map clue. He looked at it, chuckling.
"It was...the trial for here was called, 'Saving the Lost Soul', I quess she was kind of lost...huh?" Husky had grabbed the paper from Herobrines hand, who was now fake glaring at him. "I was reading that." His eyes weren't glowing, and I don't know when he changed it back to human. Husky only laughed a little.
"Well, I think the next one is for Merome~" His voice went sing-song as he looked at Mitch and Jerome with a teasing smile, who were now trying to get the paper from his grasp.
"Let me see." Jerome whined like a puppy. Husky was keeping him at arms length as he kept reading the paper. I didn't know where Mitch went, until I saw a blur run past Husky, leaving him without the map. "Good job Mitch!" Jerome cheered, and I nearly fall over laughing. It was obvious they had planned that.
"Ooh, love is all that it says." Mitch looked at the page, Jerome sighed.
"A trial to test love, now that is just mean."
Ssundees POV:
"A trial to test love, not that is just mean." Jerome pouted. I laughed a little, although it might mean something else. Either it is testing their love, or it is testing our bond as friends. That thought gets me worried, especially if I think about what that one apparation said. I don't have any idea what will come up next, this past week in itself has been confusing. Herobrines mind, im sure, is starting to fix itself which is a good thing. He killed the evil squids without any hesitation, but what surprised me was that he used a sword instead of his magic. I could see him looking towards the body of Dell, a sad look on his face.
"We should bury her." He said quietly, and we agreed. Thirty minutes later, we finished burying Dell, rain was starting to fall from dark clouds. It soon started to pour, and Hero put a barrier above us so we wouldn't be soaked.
"I wonder what corrupted her soul..." Hero said out loud. He had a sad look on his face. "Her aura was tainted with something, unlike the darkness in mine, but still potent enough to have made her go nuts." Husky sighed, looking away from the new grave.
"She used to be a good friend. It was my fault that she trained with me...The squids injected us with large amounts of something, but I don't really remember what it was. Some sort of poison that if it kills you, after you respawn you cannot move for a few minutes. But if it didn't kill you, you changed..." He trailed off, looking at the grave again. His eyes were dull and didn't have any emotion in them.
"She should have stayed a seamstress." Sky was looking at him oddly, probably also noticing how his eyes were off.
"Husky, why are your eyes empty? Do you feel okay?" Sky asked, he was always worried for his friends, and I swear, it was going to kill him some day.
"Oh, its a thing I can do. I turned off my emotions temporarily during the fight. No worries though, I'll be a crying mess later. It was my fault she became that way anyways." Jason hugged him, and then we started on our way, Sky leading us. I could see the edges of my sight starting to get fuzzy, and I growled to myself. I had seen too many visions of my friends dying already, too much and I might forget what is reality. I pushed it back, silently hoping that it wasn't important. I looked over at Husky, my glasses slipping a little so I could see his aura. It only took a tiny spark of magic to see it. The blue had swirls of magenta within it. The swirls were out of control, not lazily floating around, but zipping everywhere. It was susposed to be blue swirls inside of a magenta aura, and that got me confused. He was probably having some sort of internal turmoil. I glanced over to Mitch and Jerome, seeing their light brown and dark brown auras intertwining where they held hands. They were litterally soulmates, and I nearly laughed to myself. I couldn't see Skys aura clearly, it was a brilliant gold...although what has me worried is the small patch of gey aura by his head. I wonder where he got that. Deadlox was slightly looking at Sky, his light green aura flickering with worry. His eyes were red, maybe he could see the grey too. Orange glowed faintly around Jason, it always looked weak. I don't know if it is because he isn't human or if he was always sad...I hope it's just the fact that he isn't human. I keep forgetting that he isn't from this world, and the way his eyes were always reminded me. Herobrines blue aura had some streaks of white in it because of his magic. It also confused me, he was cursed with dark magic, but it only showed dark whenever it gained control. Max was talking with Ross. His aura was red, but Ross' aura surprised me. It was a dark red, nearly resembling blood...no it looked exactly like blood. I focused on the smell of the aura, and I nearly stopped dead in my tracks. I couldn't hold back an amused smile, his blood aura smelled of oranges. Usually, the smell would corespond to the aura somehow, but this was entirely random. Jin had a bright purple coming from him, it smelled of tulips...again, I was trying not to laugh. A guy with a flower scented aura, it was just too good. Barney didn't have any aura around him, I wonder if it was my eyes messing up, or the fact that he was basically a dinosaur of sorts. The only thing I saw was a dark blue glow by his eyepatch. Red, surprisingly, didn't have red aura. It was a light magenta. It smelled of...daisies...I started laughing. I was internally yelling at myself, but it was too funny.
"Ssundee? Did something break your mind?" Sky asked, and I could barely catch my breath.
"Red...his aura...smells of DAISIES!" I said that last part loudly, but I still fell over laughing. My sides were begining to hurt. "J-Jins is tulips!" I had to stop laughing to breath properly, but I couldn't. After a few minutes of me trying to stop, I was finally only chuckling. My side hurt like fudge, but it was worth it. I noticed my glasses on the ground and grabbed them. I put them back on because my eyes were sparking quite a bit. Jin and Red were staring at me, and neither looked amused.
"Be frank with me Ssundee, does my aura really smell like a flower?" Red asked, and I nearly started laughing again.
"Yep." then an idea came into my head. "But how can I be 'Frank' when I'm Ssundee?" worst joke ever, but it got a chuckle from him. It took Hero a second to register it as well, before he started to laugh a little. Now that my fit of laughter was over, we were begining on our journey again. I didn't see the black crow made of shadows following us.
Thirty chapters already...well excluding the authors note its twenty-nine, but oh well. I'm sorry I haven't been updating as much, it is not because I am getting sick of the story, but because I have been too busy to write. I hope everyone had a good day, and have some cookies (::) (::) (::) (::) P.S. I forgot Husky had a magenta aura with blue swirls, I put that he had a blue aura with magenta swirls...so I wrote it off as him being sad for Dells death. I tried to make a joke at the end, but that is not my forte. I can write sad scenes, maybe small fighting ones, but my jokes aren't that good. I was going to do a reference to the movie Airplane! by having him say 'surely' instead of frank, but it is used a lot. It will be my one downfall if I make an Undertale story, you will get the worst puns or jokes in the world. Sorry for having a long P.S., have yourself more cookies. (::) (::) (::) (::)
