The kingdom between realms
The problem has arrived

The problem has arrived

Alex enters the lab while the people of the underneath kingdom sleep.

Alex: the machine of power...Sam put a lot of his power into it so it maintains this place and created its own power around this cafe so people wouldn't be able to see in here anyways..

Alex turns on a device showing a tv of how the war in the kindness kingdom is going and the events happening in VOTLS as well as rebellion and MA.

Alex: so much fighting, so much pain...heh it's supposed to happen and him...

He looks Crisp on the tv talking to Ice and Henry.

Alex: his soul well soon be changed my plan to bring back Vanessa if she does perish from the war..he will vanish and die but she will remain. A soul for a soul, heh though his soul is special it won't be so easy~ but what the hell might as well wait till he's off his guard.

Alex grabs his tea watching the tv with a smirk.

Alex: And again experiments will pour in..

He sees his book on the desk and he laughs.

Alex: you'll be back soon Bella I'll find users of dark magic they'll know what my name is one way or another..

He laughs maniacally looking at his desk with small figurines of all the people of the realms and he tips them over.

Alex: whoops~ just reminding all of you that I'm your friend~ hehe I absorb and mark everyone's actions.

He heads back up without being spotted and his expression changes back to a friendly face and serves customers that come into crisps cafe then goes to check on Nate.

Nate is doing fine. He is designing a new outfit.

Alex sees Nate designing and he sits next to him and drinks his tea.

Alex: How's your brother?

Nate: He seems to be fine. Last I checked on him, he was doing alright.

He looks slightly at Alex

Nate: So what do you do in your freetime? I mean almost everyone else is off to war and I can't see you in my visions for some reason so what were you doing?

Alex stays quiet enjoying his tea.

Alex: I was checking something out in the cave of voices.

Nate: What were you checking out?

Alex: a theory if that place still is my home it used to be my home and when I tried to go into the cave it vanished...meaning.

He thinks "meaning darkness siblings did die when darkness changed and now Frank exists.."

Nate: Meaning?

Alex: A death of two siblings anywho do you want two other siblings?

Nate: Isn't that a question dad should be asking me?

Alex: It is but he'll be here soon he'll tell you..and how do I know he has a magic device to message me like you do he was in the garden of rebellion he told me when he was talking to Henry and Ice sent this message.

He shows the message it says "Don't do anything stupid and I was able to get some blood from the unconscious Sen from when he fell and got blood from Whil due to having to snap him out of that bitches control....Sam is trying to agree to murder her he's trying to court her but she's doing things or done things that he's thinking not to..ask Nate if he wanted more siblings.."

Nate: I don't think he will kill her...I think they'll end up together

Alex: who knows what if crisp murders her and him like he plans to?

Alex makes an evil smile.

Alex: Besides, she deserves death, right? Raping and innocent and controlling someone.

Nate: Shows what you know in the end...what if she regrets what she does? And isn't killing still killing no matter the reason for that killing?

Alex: you know if that same axe threw if he threw it at her she could've died there at the end of story...and he would've fought anyone who went against him he's trying to ease things out but it seems like that bitch doesn't want that.

Alex turns the magic tv in Nate's work place for clothing to see the events happening in rebellion being right now the courting.

Alex: you see her that bitch seems like she doesn't trust Sam even knowing the kindness kingdom is there neighbor...

Alex glows dark and golden and he smirks and drinks his tea.

Nate smirks

Nate: You clearly don't know everything or you might not say such things. She's being cautious. Just because the kindness kingdom is her neighbor doesn't mean that she can trust them. Only fools trust blindly without building any foundation first. Trust takes time.

Alex laughs hard it sounds maniacal but it isn't.

Alex: t-that is funny huh? Trust yet she was cheated or left many times yet here she is not trusting a guy who is going out of his way to help people and her and matter fact he could've killed her instantly with that axe and didn't she should trust him just by that he was showing he isn't a threat so THATS HILARIOUS!!!!

Nate: Yes trust the guy who throws you off your throne, attacks you for apparently no reason at all, insults you everyday and may or may not be lying to get what he wants...kind of like you. Makes one wonder if he's really a nice guy or only pretending to be to get what he wants with no true regard to what anyone else feels or wants, doesn't it?

He's eyeing Alex in such a way that it's clear he doesn't trust him

Alex: you don't have to trust me heh I don't mind I'm not your enemy or maybe I am just you decide that anyway I need to wait for crisp to use sen and whils blood and crisps and some of your fathers blood and use my blood manipulation so the blood can make forms it wants and make you siblings do what you want but please check on your sibling anywho see ya later tonight in crisps public lab down the street.

He leaves Nate's clothing shop and uses his magic to teleport vanish and to appear in his apartment.

Nate grits his teeth but decides to check on his sibling again unsure how to feel about more siblings especially when it isn't his dad asking him about them

Once Nate arrives home he marks on the calendar the days his dad been gone.

Nate: Today is the 7th day dad has been in the cherish kingdom. I hope he's safe...it didn't seem to bad when I was in his pocket..

Alaric: Brother your back!!! I missed you..

He's holding a small Nate plushie Alex made for him and in his other hand a plushie of crisp.

Nate: Sorry for leaving you alone for so long little brother. Just had to finish some designs

He ruffles his hair a bit

Alaric:o-oh how did that go and Alex gave me these plushies!! He's a nice guy. I see why dad and him are good friends. Are you and Alex friends?

Nate is silent for a bit as he starts making food

Nate: No we aren't friends

Alaric: Oh why?

Nate: We just aren't

Alaric: there isn't a reason why you don't want to be friends with him?

Alaric looks at his brother confused but gets up from the couch and hugs Nate's legs.

Alaric: I'm here for you big brother..if you have a reason you can tell me!

Nate smiles and ruffles his hair

Nate: I know Alaric...I just get a funny feeling around him is all and the fact that I can't see anything of him with my visions has me on edge around him

Alaric: Maybe he's special like dad!! Did you ever check his soul with your soul ability!! Dad says it lets you see people's souls and there intentions what were his intentions?

Nate shakes his head: Intentions can be deceiving. Some people have good intentions but go about it all wrong...I don't know. I just...Nevermind. We're just not friends, Alaric but I'm glad he's treating you nicely

Alaric hugs his brothers legs harder due to him being short.

Alaric: it'll be ok big brother.

Nate smiles and bends down to hug him better

Nate: Thanks. Come on let's eat

They eat together and he smiles happily later that night crisp comes alone into the kingdom he enters the apartment.

Crisp: hello anyone home?

Alaric and Nate are hiding and Alaric whispers to his brother "you want to scare him!!!?"

Nate nods and whispers "lead the way"

They jump out from behind the couch to try and scare him he just glares at them.

Crisp: So uh who's idea was it to scare me, your father? Hm?

Alaric feels a tone from crisp and feels upset.

Alaric: I-it was my idea dad sorry...

Crisp does a soft smile and laughs.

Crisp: It was a good attempt. I'm proud now do you both want siblings?

Alaric is shocked by the sudden question.

Nate: ......I made dinner, want some?

Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.

He moves toward the kitchen to get his father some of the leftover dinner

Crisp looks at them both.

Crisp: you two ok?

Alaric: y-yeah just that was so sudden and no I wouldn't mind!! Maybe a sister and another brother!

Crisp: haha what about you Nate?

Nate heating up some of the leftover dinner

Nate: You've already decided, correct?

Crisp: no I haven't? I just have blood stored just in case if you say yes and if you don't then I'll just give it back!

Nate: Do you want more kids?

Crisp: yes I always wanted a family of ten haha but that's only if I'm allowed to anyways back to my question do you want more siblings?

Nate: ....I won't mind more. This just seems really sudden. I mean you've only known the two people for 7 days now...shouldn't children take a bit longer than 7 days to even become a topic?

Crisp: your right....just I'm in love I didn't know what I was feeling.....around them why I was doing those actions until Sam asked two days ago "do you like them is that why you flirt with them? Or could it be that you love them?" And when he asked that my heart was racing....but yeah I love them..is it bad?

Nate: I don't think it's bad dad. I'm glad you've found someone. Now you just have to get them to love you too but I don't think that'll be a problem

Nate smiles like he knows something

Crisp: what do you mean by that?

Crisp sensed Nate knows something and also wants to say something.

Nate shrugs, a light smirk on his face

Nate: Who knows

Crisp: Alright so what do you say do you want siblings now or later?

Nate: I think you should wait until you have the other parents as yours before making kids with there blood

Crisp; that's smart!

Crisp poured their blood onto his sword and it stored it.

Alaric: Aw so no sister or brother...?

Crisp smiles and rubs Alaric's head and kisses Nate's head.

Crisp: my beautiful sons I'm proud of you both I may not have magic but it's ok and I made Nate with my blood and some magic I found in a lab!

Alaric: cooool!!! He must be so strong!!!

Alex: Actually he's immortal.

Crisp looks behind him and sees he left the door open and Alex just walked in.

Crisp: I-immorta-

Alex; do I need to repeat myself yes he is and so are you crisp the powerless or should I say you have power~.

He walks up and smirks looking at crisp.

Alex: Are you going to keep it secret forever? Anti magic user.

Crisp: h-huh no no I have no magic!

Crisp thinks "WHY DID YOU HAVE TO SAY IT AND HOW IS NATE IMMORTAL IF I'M NOT?!"

Alex smirks and reads his mind and laughs and looks at Nate.

Alex: your daddy has magic and not only that he gained immortality you as well are immortal.

Crisp: h-how?

Alex: your magic silly sure using your magic hurts you tremendously~ meaning when you created Nate you were in immense pain~ but at that same moment your magic became stronger and made you immortal so congratulations!!~

Nate whispers "So that's what that vision meant..."

Alex: SO BASICALLY MEANING CRISP YOU CAN'T DIE AND YOU BECAME WHAT YOU DID NOT WANT YOU DIDN'T WANT IMMORTALITY AND HERE YOU ARE!!

He laughs and smiles crisp looks upset but he needs to accept it.

Crisp: if that's what I am now it doesn't matter...but I'll find a way to be mortal...

Alex: why? Why risk wanting mortality when you gained soemthing amazing?

Crisp: because if I fall in love I won't be able to die with them...

Alex: love heh funny concept and if that's your way of thinking here you can be able to see your sons grow up and your children and be able to be by there side so being immortal isn't all bad just think about it and you Nate how do you feel being immortal?

Nate: Who knows how I'll feel in the future but right now it does not bother me or hinder me in any way

Alex smiles and leaves calmly but dropped something crisp and picks it up. It's a picture of Vanessa.

Crisp: ? Why does Vanessa have a crown?

The picture shows Queen Vanessa who has taken over the kindness kingdom.

Nate: .......

Crisp: ...I have a feeling I should turn on the magic tv to see what's going on in the kindness kingdom...

Nate: NO!

Nate moves to block the tv not wanting to see his father's face once he sees the war happening

Nate: Don't worry dad. I'm sure they're fine and...um...Alaric said he wanted to go to the amusement park together!

Crisp senses Nate's insecurity but nods and all three of them go to the amusement park.

Crisp: So which ride first and I have only an hour left before everyone notices I'm gone today is the party.

Nate: Alaric, which ride?

Alaric: the roller coaster!!!

The monster who is the guide shows around.

Unknown: Ah been a while since people been here just been fellow monsters though I miss the human workers...there all busy with that war anywho my name is Harry nice to meet you all ah crisp hero of the kindness kingdom how you been?

Crisp: I've been good Harry how's Frank?

Harry: he's been alright I mean he's been my roommate for a while currently!

Crisp: so he treats you good?

Harry nods.

Harry: Anywho welcome to my amusement park Sam helped build it with his magic I'll show you around then you can ride the demon.

Crisp: that's the name of the roller coaster?

Harry: yeah pretty convenient right I'm a demon and I named it demon!

Alaric laughs since that's silly.

Harry: ah you must be Nate the clothing designer I love this dress by the way very smooth!

Harry is wearing a nice reddish pink dress Nate made and has a hair bow.

Nate blushes

Nate: T-Thanks

Harry smiles and guides them around showing all the rides. It's a huge amusement park and they get on the ride and had fun.

Crisp: I have to go...Sen needs me for a plan for that queen...

Alaric: what is it?

Crisp: just attempting something!

The tube appears under crisp and he waves good bye before going back to the cherish kingdom Alaric then looks at Nate.

Alaric: What now brother?

Nate: Let's go home

He looks worried

They go home and Alaric knows something is wrong once home they watch to see what's going on at that party. It shows Sam protecting Kennocha from a guy and stopping her from going with him and shows Sam getting hit by some type of golden laser and shows sam in bad pain.

Alaric: I-isn't that SAM?!!

It then changes and shows a person talking to Sam but it's just like a shadow and that person left in a hurry and people then surround Sam.

Alaric: b-big brother what do you think happened and if Sam didn't get in the way to protect Kennocha from that guy she would've been hit instead...

Nate smiles

Nate: True but look at Kennocha's face

Kennocha is clearly worried about Sam

Nate: Sam's getting through to her despite her resistance, he's getting to her heart...as for what happened, I can only guess that someone is out to hurt either her or him

Alaric: what if it's both?

Nate: ....then let's hope it's nobody we know

Alaric: you're not wrong also what's the relationship between Sam and kennocha I caught dad yesterday early morning down here talking to Frank and he said he saw Sam come out of Kennochas room, buttoning his shirt for the 4th time. Why was he in her room brother?

Nate: Who knows...but it shouldn't be so hard to figure out what they might have been doing

Alaric:?? What would they do if they hate each other?

Nate looks at him and debates telling him the truth before deciding against it

Nate: Wrestling most likely or maybe fighting. Who knows for sure what they were doing in there

Alaric: wrestling? But why would he need to button his shirt?

Nate: He might have taken off his shirt to keep it from getting wrinkled or destroyed

Alaric: Oh gosh I hope he didn't hurt her! Actually I hope he did because she deserves it! Hmph!

Nate: ALARIC! We do not wish harm on anyone...that's wrong and not nice at all

Alaric: hmph sorry big brother...

Later at midnight crisp snuck out again to enter the underneath kingdom not a sight of Sam though.

Crisp: ....I thought we agreed t-

He sensss if the spies are watching like he always does and they weren't so he quickly goes down into the underneath kingdom.

Once he enters the underneath kingdom he senses Sam is in Kennocha's room in the Cherish kingdom again.

Crisp: why is Sam going into her room I know he likes her but she shouldn't be trusted do I trust Sam no no fuck no....is he a good person yes....AHH I DONT KNOW!

Suddenly Crisp hears yelling when he looks up and a person crashes onto him.

Gracie appears and looks at them lying down.

Grace: Welcome yellow from VOTLS sorry our announcer is at the war in the kindness kingdom!

Crisp: Is that why you didn't warn me SOMEONE NEW WAS COMING?!

Grace sticks her tongue out and laughs.

Grace: maybe~

She disappears and the guy on him opens his eyes and stares at crisp.

Yellow: W-who are you wait your an angel~

Crisp panics by the sudden change of attitude and tries to punch him off but forget about the Barrier and hurts his hand.

Crisp: ouch..

Yellow: A-Are you ok here let me help you!~

Yellow tries to help but Crisp tries to get up but instead their eyes are meeting and they are in an interesting position.

Yellow: nice and close~ man you move quickly.~

Crisp breaths a little hard and looking at yellow thinking of what to do.

Crisp: easy there~ you wouldn't want to have trouble would you~?

Yellow smirks and tries to lean closer to crisp until grace appears.

Grace: WELCOME YELLOW!

Startling yellow to get off crisp as they both get up.

Grace: was I interrupting?

Crisp: n-no I wasn't doin-

Yellow: yes we were.~

Grace knows that's a lie, just bows and walks up to crisp "show him around." She vanished and crisp nods.

Crisp: uh welcome to the underneath kingdom your name must be yellow!

Yellow: y-yeah and you handsome what's your name~?

Crisp: my name is Crisp, nice to meet yellow. Do you know where you are?

Yellow: no but you said the name of this place uh how did I get here I was going to attend a meeting?

They walk and looks around while talking.

Crisp: it happens the tubes tend to bring people down randomly.

Yellow: tends to?

Crisp nods as they walk past some humans and monsters.

Yellow: m-monst-

Crisp puts a finger on yellows mouth.

Crisp: this is a place to be free monsters, humans and people with power live here or come visit that giant castle that glows it's the main kingdom's symbol. It glows the color that represents your home.

He then points to the sky making yellow look up as he sees signs "kindness kingdom, VOTLS, REBLLION, Monster Apartment." Yellow seeing this makes him shocked when they arrive in a part of the kingdom which is a giant city which looks like his city and he finds his house.

Yellow: w-what is this p-

Crisp: a place were all realms can live. Do you know who Abby is?

Yellow: I don't know but the name sounds familiar..

Crisp claps his hands and appears a list of peoples names and pictures everyone he knows and catagory saying "VOTLS."

Yellow: a-are you a stalker?

Crisp: no? This place contains information of all of us look.

He clicks on the kindness kingdom and reveals Sam, Lost and Crisp's information.

"Crisp a unknown being generation human family the combined flower family age 19."

"Lost the owner of all power age 17 fighting the war."

"Sam location the cherish kingdom king of the kindness kingdom as well as Crisp."

Crisp claps his hands and the hologram disappears.

Yellow: d-does it have information on me... all about me?

Crisp senses insecurities but nods.

Crisp: I read a bit...you're not a monster Yellow nor is your brother Green...

Yellow looks at this stranger as if he wants to cry and escape or something Crisp walks slowly and hugs him,

Crisp: your safe now...I know how you fe-

Yellow: YOU DON'T! ONLY ME AND MY BROTHER KNOW! WHO ELSE KNOWS WHO ELSE!!?

Crisp hugs Yellow tightly and whispers "just me...I'm a monster too ... .I used to be known as one all my life did you know how that felt? Being alone...until I was 17 they saw me as a hero but you aren't alone ... .at least you both have each other.you and your brother....you gained your immortality...from a god ....it must've been hard being immortal and suffering and seeing everyone pass away...I recently gained it....I don't what to do.."

Yellow hears the pain in Crisps' voice and embraces him.

The tube appears and takes Yellow back to his home before he told him the answer. Crisp then is there hugging the air until he opens his eyes and sees he's gone.

Crisp: ....I'm alone? Again...Vanessa left...Sam is he a friend or a foe? Why am I so confused...

The tube takes Crisp back as well. Nate was watching secretly but couldn't hear anything. Frank was next to Nate and were watching together feeling sympathy.

Frank: come on Nate...let's do this.

Together with their magic add a safety landing on a giant soft surface to cushion whoever is falling from the tubes and with that there's a few days left until the Halloween party.
