Part Two
Shattered
"wake up!" someone yelled at Shattered.
Shattered woke with a start "who! What?"
Shattered looked around and saw Error sitting against a rock messing with a few strings he must have made from magic, Shattered guessed, and bleeding from his head, and Sol laying curled up in a corner shaking and telling herself all would be ok. Shattered walked over to a row of pillars that was just small enough that she couldn't slip through, with a hall on the other side. If she looked through, she could another set of bars across the hall.
Made from earth magic, most likely greater. Shattered noted to herself. Stone or another type of rock.
"Where are we?" Shattered asked turning to Error. "some sort of dungeon?"
"The ice cat dungeons" Error said calmly not looking at her, but his eyes had a sort of crazed terror in them.
"wow dungeons!" Reaper's astral form purred from beside her.
"What is it with you and dungeons?" Shattered whispered to Reaper.
"because they mean blood, and blood means violence!" as Reaper finished his sentence that only Shattered could hear, a loud distant shriek of pain came from down the hall that made Reaper smile wider and Sol start to shake harder and whimper.
Shattered sat down and Error got up and sat beside her, his claws scratching at the rocks below slightly.
"Who's that?" Error asked looking up to Reaper who stopped doing flips in the air when he heard Error.
Reaper yelled "you can see me!?" right as Shattered said in a loud whispered you can see him?!" and Error nodded.
"Of course, I can see him. He's there as clear as day" Error said looking at Shattered "well, I didn't see him when we first met, where was he?"
"he wasn't in his phantom form like he is now, he was... wait! This isn't the time to be talking about this!" Shattered said in a loud whisper standing up. "what we should be talking about is how to get out!"
"oh, true" Error agreed standing up too "you know this isn't the first prison I've been in."
Shattered watched as he walked over to a wall and touched it.
"Sol! Come here. You to Shattered." Error called closing his eyes and pressed his paw up against the rock and when he opened his eyes a small spot appeared on the rock.
Shattered walked over to the rock and peered at the spot that seemed to be growing larger fast.
"What's that?" Shattered asked looking back at Error who was helping Sol stand up and walk over to the wall.
"Its... Ugg... A... portal..." Error grunted "Sol! Can you please walk?! Shattered! Come help please?"
"s-sorry" Sol whispered.
By the time Error and Shattered got Sol to the wall it was almost as big as the wall.
"I didn't know that you could also control portal rifts" Shattered panted helping Sol stand up.
"I can't" Error said raping a Red-String-Bandage around Sol's arm so she could walk better, "One of our cats named Nayroy made it. She is amazing with spells. Although Fareon made the potion and Nayroy just enchanted it."
Shattered widened her eyes with confusion. She was about to say "what" before, "What's going on in here!" a guard called from the bars of the cell.
"ok, get in, Fast!" Error told Sol and Shattered panting slightly.
Sol nodded and walked in, shattered ran into the portal without speaking and Reaper did a backflip in the air and swooped into the portal along with Shattered.
Reaper
It was weird going through the portal. Reaper's head was full of questions and possible ways to kill Sol who had recovered from her mental break down and was sleeping. Error was talking to Shattered about family and that type of crap. Reaper thought that it was odd that cats cared about family. Reaper would have killed his family with his bare claws if he were asked to. Too bad they were dead, and so was he. Huh. He had never thought of that. He had been dead for so long. When you were dead for as long as he was it is easy to forget that you are actually dead.
Reaper still needed to find a way to take over Shattered's body, but she didn't have any corrupt in her soul at all from the time they had spent sharing a body and stuff. She didn't want revenge on anyone or anything, unlike how he wanted to kill, so it would be difficult to take over her body. At least she was still suspicious of Error and Sol, who she didn't believe didn't have any magic, maybe Reaper could use this to his advantage. Error hadn't told Shattered and Reaper why he had his strange magic, but he did tell them about how him and Sol met.
"She helped me after I got out of the prison. I was really hurt, and Sol patched me up. I don't know what she's planning, but I do know she's not a threat." Error had told them. "we made a camp with some other cats so the cats with no home or cats that were kicked out of there tribes had somewhere to go. And apparently to the tribes, take them out and gain control of their territory" Error rolled his eyes.
Error
Error flopped on the ground, deciding to take a break from walking. He looked up and around.
"Good, I'm far away from any Ice or Flame territory, and good thing the Stone cats don't care about what goes on in the other tribes. But if the Flame cats get me now... I'm done for. But if they do find me, I could just kill them," Error thought, "No! I do not kill cats! If they find me, I will run so no more cats have to die by me claws."
Error didn't even realize where he was going until he ran right into a tree and fell backwards.
"ow!" he yelped with pain and rubbed his side of his face in pain.
He sat down and made a lose bandage out of his weird new blood red cords of string that he found he could make to heal, attack, and just mess around with. He continued until he found a cave. he looked in and found that the cave was a natural tunnel that went back far into the rock. Near the entrance he saw a small old looking campfire. It's safe. He thought as he walked into the near the back of the cave where he found a patch of moss and curled up.
I hope I don't get found, I hope Geno is ok and most of all, I hope I'm not a murderer. Error didn't just hope, he wished. With those last thoughts he finally fell into an uneasy sleep. All he could dream about was what would happen if his old tribe caught him.
Error woke up with a yell of pain.
"Shut up!" a cat hissed at him in a low whisper. "we're close to a Stone Tribe patrol. I'm Sol by the way. You?"
"What? Don't you know not to tell your name to someone who might be your enemy?" Error said turning his neck to look at Sol.
"I don't think of this as 'telling my name to someone who might be my enemy'" Sol said pocking Errors wounds. "I call it helping a fellow survivor."
Error disappeared and reappeared on the other side of the cave.
"how do I know that you aren't planning to kill me right now?" Error said narrowing his eyes.
"I can't. I don't have any powers." Sol paused "Are you Error?"
Error flinched as she waved his red string bandage (that was already starting to disappear) at him. "Yes. My name is Error."
"Well nice to meet you Error!" Sol said smiling.
Error fell perfectly on the ground and with a flick of his paw, he caught Sol and Shattered with his powers and lightly set them on the ground.
"You guys alright?" Error said turning his head to look at them.
"I noticed you didn't help me out." Reaper grumbled crossing his front arms in the air.
"You, my genocidal little friend, are already dead, aren't ya?" Error called up to Reaper.
"oh, I guess that's true" Reaper said lowering to tap Error's back.
"Ack!" Error yelped jumping back "haphephobia!"
"what's haphephobia?" Shattered asked.
"it's when you have a fear of touching other cats, and the act of touching someone can cause pain. I got it from..." Error broke off and looked down at the ground. "I'd prefer not to talk about it."
"How dose Haphephobia work if you get touched by a ghost!?" Shattered yelled making a weird face.
"what ghost?" Sol said looking back at them slightly alarmed.
