(Michael's POV)

I sighed as I stared up at the roof of the tent, I hadn't slept at all last night like usual. Nightmares are a real pain in the ass, aren't they? Just as I was about to close my eyes and doze off, a bright beam of light invaded my tent, blasting me in the face with the sudden brightness. Immediately, I raised my arm to block the sun's rays, hissing at it like a freakin vampire. "Michael, you're not a freakin vampire."

Realising exactly who opened the entrance to my tent, my eyes widened as I sat up quicker than Ritchie's storm blink. Quite a coincidence really, because Ritchie was the one who opened my tent. A light blush appeared on my face when I saw Ritchie standing outside my tent, smirking at me and probably my blush.

"C'mon, sleep hater. Everyone else is already up and ready to leave. Don't wanna leave anyone behind now, do we?" I blushed even more, but nonetheless, got off my sleeping bag to get ready with the others.

-----Skip to Everyone ready :3-----

(Smol Void Bean's POV)

Once I was done and caught up with everyone, we started to head down the path towards a pretty tall mountain that was in the distance. Us guild leaders were hanging in the back of the group while our guilds talked in small groups, mixing all the guilds together. Bri and Silver were chatting together while I was listening into the twins talking, adding a few additional comments here and there. Suddenly, I felt a strange presence around us so I stopped in my tracks, going unnoticed by the others as I looked around the forest to see if there was anything out of the ordinary.

Suddenly, a giant pink and black figure jumped right in front of me, startling me quite badly. Before I could even move away from it, two huge fluffy arms wrapped themselves around me, easily picking me up from the floor. I tried to wiggle and shadow-travel out of their grip but my magic wouldn't work for some reason. So, I did the next best thing: Shout like my life depended on it.

"GEt YO FuCKING PAwS OFF oF ME, YOU hUGE-ASs mARSHMALLOW!!"

This caught the attention of all the guild members and other guild leaders luckily enough, but this also made the mysteriously fluffo-creature seemingly mad. "HEY! GET YOUR PINK BEAR PAWS OFF OF OUR FRIEND!!" My mind completely dipped. I was currently being held into the air... by a freaking bear... I went into complete panic mode. Thrashing my arms around to try to get out of its grip and trying to use my magic to shadow travel out, it never worked. Instead, the grip of this thing tightened around me, making me stop all movements as my brain shut down. It was like I was dead, I couldn't move a muscle, which just made it easier for the bear.

The bear seemed pleased about my actions because it bent its knees and sky-rocketed through the air, leaving the others to just shout out to us. For the bear to put me back on the ground and the worried voices calling for me.

Me being the tired and terrified shadow bean I was, this absolutely freaked me and then, I blacked out...

(Ritchie's POV)

"You god damn fecking marshmallow!!" I yelled out as loud as I could, watching as the giant pink bear took away my- I mean our shadow bean.

"Marshmallow?" I jumped when I heard a sudden voice behind me, so I turn around to see who spoke, but I may have forgotten that everyone in the guilds were behind me. My face blushed brightly out of embarrassment when I say my guild and the other guild leaders, especially my brother, smirking or grinning at me. "I uhhh..."

"Ritchie, it's freaking obvious you like Michael. Don't even try and hide it." Brandon spoke up, standing in the front of all the guilds with the biggest smirk out of everyone here. I was about to retaliate until Mario spoke up before me. "Sorry Ritchie, but us dragon slayers can sense lies, so don't even attempt to lie to us."

Just to confirm Mario's statement, the other dragon slayers, Mitch, Colin and Bryan all nodded in agreement. I sighed, knowing that no matter how much I can try to deny it, I will never be able to avoid the unavoidable for the rest of my life. "FINE! I like Michael! Happy now?" I grumble, my face burning like a freaking tomato and probably looks like one too. "Very, now we have to find a way for you two to get together!" The dragon queen squealed, I had to hide my face in my hands from how much I was blushing. It was nearly as bright as Bryan's gay- I mean fire dragon rawr!

"Soooo, now that that's out there, how about we try and find this smol shadow bean?" Once everyone had nodded, the dragon slayers walked, well, Mario limped, over to me, sniffing me like they were dogs and I was their meal. "Uhhh, why are you guys sniffing me?" "You're the closest person to Michael, so we thought that you might have his scent. Which you do so we can follow it now."

And that's how we ended up walking through the forest, following 3 of the dragon slayers as they sniff out Michael's scent. Mario was unfortunately stuck behind us as David helped him limp across the forest floor. 'I just hope that Michael's alright cause only I know about his fear...'

~~Back to Michael's POV~~

(Michael's POV)

My eyes fluttered open as I slowly wake up from where I was asleep. I may have fainted halfway in the sky as I was very terrified about a freaking BEAR carrying me in the air, pretty much kidnapping me from my friends! What did this bear want anyways, and why meeee?!!!

Looking around, I saw a lot of trees, and I mean a lot. There was bamboo everywhere, jungle-like trees, bushes, and I was currently sitting in the middle of an open area. Suddenly, a rustling could be heard from the west side of the bushes, making my head turn towards the bushes, curious to see what it could be. "Stuff?" About four pink and black bears came crawling out of the bush, my body freezing upon seeing them. 'Please don't come to me. Please don't come to me. Please don't...' Michael prayed to the gods of Atlantide or wherever the hell he was that the fluffy death creatures wouldn't come to him. But luck wasn't on his side, as the fluffy bears slowly made their way towards the purple bean, who looked like he could have a panic attack at any time right now.

'Oh no, please don't touch me, please stay away...' I pleaded in my mind for these furry destroyers to kindly leave me alone and never come back. There is a reason why I hate bears but we are not getting into that, they were some bad memories. Suddenly, my body goes as stiff as a stick when I felt one of their tiny demonic noses touching my leg, all previous intentions on leaving had faded away from my body.

This is when my brain decided to go haywire and I screamed, making the bears backup a little before pouncing on me...

(Back to Ritchie's POV)

'God, did it really have to be a jungle?'

It felt as if we had been walking for hours, when in reality we've only been on our feet for around 40 minutes. As we were about to sit down an have a break, an ear-piercing scream could be heard from across the trees, many kinds of these bird 'pokemon'? came flying across the sky. This stung my heart a little as I knew for a fact that Michael was the one who screamed, and now there was a burning rage in the depths of my stomach. I knew my demon wanted to come out and personally rip anyone who hurt my friends to shreds, but I don't want to hurt anyone innocent. Unfortunately, my weak attempt on keeping him in didn't exactly work and Raijin got lose, he took control and all I saw was black for some reason.

~~Tiny little time skip after Raijin's rage fest~~

(Michael's POV)

I was snuggled into the warmth of the pink, fluffy bears. I know I'm scared of bears, but these adorable things are harmless and actually gave me berries to eat. After eating, they all curled around me, creating a soft bed for me to nearly fall asleep on, if it wasn't for the sudden growl of a certain demon. I jolted up from my spot, seeing all the little bears look scared made something inside me growl as I turn my head to glare at the being who hurt the children, but gasped seeing that it was Ritchie's demon Raijin in control instead. "Raijin?"

"Hello Michael~ I have come to get you away from these death-defying beasts that kidnapped you." My eyes widened as he was about to shoot an attack at the bears, I ran up and blocked the attack from Raijin, taking the shock myself and falling to the floor in slight pain. I could hear gasps coming from the others as footsteps ran up to me and the bears nuzzled my face, probably a child instinct to see if their mother was alright. "Michael stay still, I'm going to heal you." I nodded weakly, staying on the ground as Lo-Pho casted a healing spell around us and I let out a sigh of relief. Once I was healed, I stood up and walked towards a surprisingly nervous Raijin. "Now Raijin, I want you to give Ritchie his control back before I let Kassathar do it for you~"

Raijin's eyes widened as he shook his head vigorously before allowing Ritchie to take control again. Once Ritchie was in control, he looked around frantically before spotting me, basically tackling me into a hug. "Michael!" I chuckled lightly as I hugged him back, my face flushed a little pink with how close he was to me. "I thought you got hurt..." He whispered, a little bit of relief was in his voice. I giggled a little at that. "Well to be honest, I nearly fell asleep. Bears are actually quite warm and cuddly if you get to know a few."

"Sorry to interrupt this adorable moment, but we might want to get moving away from this jungle before it becomes nighttime. That means you two protectors and Colin, stop playing with the bears and let's please go." Bri spoke up, smirking towards our red faces and ushering her pouting guild and dragon child to leave ze bear bebes alone. They stood up and left with a pout.

"Bye little guys!" I waved to the furballs, who waved back with their tiny paws. I smiled at them as I followed the rest of my friends out of the forest, not knowing that I was holding Ritchie's hand. My face flushed a little but I smiled again, squeezing it slightly as we walked at the back of the group. One day I'll tell him, maybe one day...
