The Wardens POV

°A backstory?°

Before we get into this I am going to be sharing a bit of a backstory for Sam in this story ^^

(TW: BLOOD AND MENTIONS OF PANIC ATTACKS)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sam grew up in an orphanage for most of his life so he doesn't know his birth parents and never really was able to get attached/form a bond with the other kids (as they got adopted), so he chose to isolate himself as to not get hurt when others left. But for some strange reason this one boy with white hair seemed to stick around him and give him flowers, Sam found it annoying but didn't do anything, except one day he just snapped and that's also the day he figured out what his power was. (Hehe yes I'm writing this part out as a story, deal with it ✨️)

Everybody was out at a park to play and get fresh air
Everybody was running around playing with the caretakers, Sam however was sitting on top of the monkey bars enjoying the breeze

Sam pov:

*humming and swaying legs back and forth* "mmm, this is nice" I said while smiling, notices something through the corner of his eye so he looks, "damnit.. it's him, what does he want now?." I said mumbling

"HEYY!" says the boy trying to get my attention, so I looked his direction and tilted my head to silently say "what?" "Uhmm- can you come down please?" The boy said *sighs* "mhm" I said while hoping down to face him while holding the loose support beam to the monkey bars, "what do you need?" I say, "I have something for you!" The boy said smiling "close your eyes" *I close my eyes hesitantly* and feel some thing touch my head, I dont what happened.. but something inside of my snapped, I'm not sure if it was fear or anger but the last thing I remember was my hand feeling warm and the pole I was holding in my hand molding it's self into something.. what exactly happened was a blur, but when I gained consciousness again I was on top of the boy, there was red everywhere.. my hands felt warm so I looked down I was holding a pair of large scissors. But they were covered in blood.. I looks towards the boy, h-he was crying he looked shocked and I noticed his arm. I-I cut off his arm, there was so much crimson everywhere, I dropped the scissors and tried to stand up quickly but fell backward, my mind was fuzzy it was hard to breathe, and then I felt warmth something was hugging me I looked down and saw it was the boy, h-he was hugging me?. I was so confused but I couldn't move my ears were ringing and I saw one of the caretakers running over then. It went black

Ponks pov:

I ran over to the green haired boy to give him a flower crown I made, I asked him to come down and asked for him to close his eyes, which he did hesitantly, so stood up on my tippy toes to reach and put it on him head, but- my arm was grabbed I looked at him his eyes were a slight red he tackled me to the ground and grabbed my arm "W-What are you d-doing?!" I said sobbing I was scared, and then my elbow felt numb it felt.. light? I looked back up to the boy, his eyes were the normal white again he looked at me and his eyes widened he tried to get up but stumbled, still being in shock not knowing what happened I hugged him whispering to calm down he was shaking. I'm not sure what happened but he went limp, only then did the pain hit in I grabbed my arm and looked down. My left arm bellow the elbow was gone. There was bl00d everywhere so out of instinct I screamed and was met by a comforting hug it was one of the caretakers, they grabbed a rag and wrapped it tightly around my arm "i-it hurts" I said crying, they were comforting me while calling another person for help, it went black, and when i woke up I was laying in a hospital bed?. "What happened?" I thought, I looked over and noticed the same caretaker that was there sitting next to me sleeping I reached over to shake them bit was meet with a burning pain in my left arm sand bit my tongue to not scream, and they woke up and noticed me, they immediately layed me back down and helped me to drink water. "What happened? Why am I here?" I asked, they responded with "In the hospital, Sam cut your arm off." "Sam?" I questioned "oh yeah, you never really knew his name did you? It's the boy with green and red hair" they responded grimly "oh.. w-where is he? Is he okay?" I questioned, they were silent and just stared at me so I asked again "where is he? I-is he okay? He went limp I my arms" I said tearing up, "he's in another room getting help. But yes, I think he is okay" they said sighing, "o-oh, did he get hurt?!" I said jumping up "WOAH! No, no he didn't get hurt, why are tou worried about him anyways?.. he hurt you" they said back trying to get me to calm down, i froze at those words "i-im not sure. I just- feel like attracted to him? I feel like I need to make sure he's okay?." I said confused (no, not as in love attracted, rn they're like 7 or 8) they sighed "you should get more sleep, your body still need to heal" I nodded my head "okay." I say laying back down

Back to Sam's pov:

It's been a couple of weeks since what happened, I was in the hospital getting some anger management help? I'm not sure, but I'm back at the orphanage, everyone is avoiding me. The caretakers are even try to stay away from me unless needed.. "when is he going to get out?.." I said quietly to one of the caretakers, they seemed shocked "uhmm, I'm not sure. Maybe in a few more weeks. Why are you asking?" They responded, "o-oh, I just want to apologize.. I don't know what happened b-but I hurt him." I said tearing up, they sighed and came and sat next to me, they didn't seem scared of me? "Don't be surprised if he doesn't forgive you, what you did was well- quite traumatic" they responded; I looked at them confused "w-why aren't you scared of me?-" I said looking away "honestly, I'm not sure, I just have a feeling that you aren't what you seem, yk?" They responded, I broke- I just broke down crying, after I calmed down we chatted a bit, they even showed me how to use the electronic things and I soon learned their name is Alex we talked for a few minutes but they had to leave eventually.

Fast forward a few weeks when Ponk got out (still Sam's pov)

Alex told me he'd be back today, so here I am waiting in the common room biting at the skin around my nails panicking, "what if he hates me?" "He hates me doesn't he?" "What should I even say?!" My mind was crowded with thoughts but it was cut off by "SAMMM!?" I heard someone yell, I recognized that voice it him, the white haired boy I looked up to see him walking around looking for me "r-right here!" I called back shakily he walked over and sat next to me and I slipped off the couch and moved to sit on the floor infront of them criss-cross "w-why were you looking for me?.." I said, "hmm, cause I missed you!" He said back, and I responded with "why?. I hurt you! You're missing a arm because of me" he looked taken aback but turned my head to look at him "it's no problem! See" they said as vines with flowers on them formed into a hand like sape to replace the missing one, I must've had a dumbfounded look on my face cause he laughed and I turned away embarrassed "it's my power silly, I can control plants/nature" they said I looked at him" you already found yours?." I responded back confused, he tilted his head "have you not?-" he said confused, I shook my head in response "really?!" He said surprised "then let me help!" He said while smiling "Y-you don't need to do that!!" I said surprised "nope! I've already made up my mind" he responded "i-" I got cut off with him putting a finger up to my mouth "nope, its been decided! My name is Ponk and I'm your best friend now" he said smugly, and that's where I met him, we figured out that I'm able to control technology (aka from Redstone) and I'm able to mold certain materials into diffrent things
