Some how you find your way back to the orphanage, almost tripping in your own tiredness. The lady at the front desk was unsurprisingly missing.

She left a key under the welcome matt though.

You stumble as quietly as you could up the stairs and to your room. Drowsily you close the door behind you and flop into your soft bed, and drift off to sleep.

That night you dreamt of Kris.

You awake with a start, not remembering exactly what happened. Your memory is a strange blur.

Then.

From out of the corner of your eye, you see him.

Jevil.

"You- you-" you stutter confused and hopelessly tired. Jevil leaves the shadows of your room.

"(Y/n), please, don't scream. It's alright dearest Lightner." The floating jester coos.

"Why are you here!?!" You exclaimed
"I- I just needed to make sure my new friend was safe.." he replies sheepishly, his pointed ears lowering.

You sigh. "Okay then. I'm going to sleep." And you practically pass out before you hit your pillow.

Jevil's POV

The poor tired Lightner was out like a light. (UEE HEE) Gently the chaotic jester tucks the Lightner into bed, then retreats to the shadows of her room, regaining the guard dog persona he had before.

"Do not fret my dearest friend. I shall protect you through this dark night, and even after, during the brightest of lights."
