  As snufkin and joxter walk down the snowy path the once came from. Joxter looked at snufkin who had his hat covering his face. Walking to a familiar hut,seeing the same familiar witch sitting on the porch holding here staff.

"Snufkin welcome bac-"

Oblivion froze in her tracks seeing snufkin holding moomintroll in his arms with an arrow nearly in his heart,she quicky ran over to snufkin, holding onto moomintroll's and took a deep breath

"Bring him inside quicky any longer  his out here he'll freeze"She yelled walking to the hut door, snufkin and joxter slowly followed behind. Oblivion quickly closed the door and blow a kiss towards the fireplace and lit it. Snufkin put moomintroll on the table and looked at oblivion who had pity and fear her eyes.

"I-I'll try my best to work my way through this arrow snufkin but..."
Oblivion said looking at snufkin with sorrow in her eyes, Snukfin took off his hat his ears pointing down.
"Just do what you can" snufkin said putting his hat back on before walking to the couch. Joxter sighed and walked over to snufkin before oblivion walked infront of him.

"I think it's best if you leave him alone for right now"

oblivion said walk away from joxter towards moomintroll, joxter sighed and walked to the couch and sat down. Snufkin sighed playing with thumbs looking up at the table then back down to the floor.The deafening silence was interrupted by the sounds of the fire and glass being moved around, Oblivion focusing on the wound made it seem like she and moomintroll were the only two in the room. What felt like an eternity oblivion let out a loud and tired sigh before throwing herself on the chair.

"Luckily the arrow wasn't too close to his heart but he'll be fine" 

She said taking off her hat and looking at snufkin and joxter. Joxter sighed and patted snufkin on his back causing snufkin to look at him, Joxter gave him a comforting smile before looking at moominroll who was slowly getting up. Snufkin quickly ran over to him near tripping over his own feet, moomintroll sat up grunting in pain

"Moomintroll don't move too much"

Snufkin said putting his hand on moomintrolls back and hand. Moomintroll leaned on snufkin shoulder before looking into his hazel brown eyes.Snufkin helped moomintroll off of the table slowly, Joxter walked over to moomintroll and snufkin

"How are ya feeling kid?"

joxter said handing moomintroll his sweater, moomintroll took the sweater and quickly put it on and gave joxter a smile

"It still hurts but i'm fine thank you joxter"

moomintroll said giving joxter a small hug, joxter tensed up a bit but hugged moomintroll back. Snufkin looked at joxter and quiet gasped seeing a tear roll down his cheek, snufkin looked down hear something he said echo in his mind

" You should've been the one who got shot"

Snufkin felt his own heart broke as tears  run down his cheeks like a water fall, Joxter letting go of moomintroll hearing sobbing and sniffling. Joxter placing his hand on snufkin shoulder and looked at him with worried look on his face

"Hey now what's wro-"
