Worlds Collide (SANSCEST MULTISHIP)

Chapter 21 - Welcome Home

Night looked at the place. He forgot what it looked like. He never visited this place since... they took him away from his brother. He looked at his skeletal hands which are white instead of his goopy black ones. The purple tunic adorned his clothing so as his crown with the cut out crescent moon. He's not confuse nor scared however, this is a dream anyways. A dream where he can control where he wanted to go and his mind doesn't flash any images or anything, just him controlling everything.

He touched the bark of the blooming cherry blossom. The place was on top of a hill. The sky is forever set in between night and day, a Twilight, that is also what they named the place. He sighed sitting in the bottom of the tree. A book appearing in thin air which he took and read. This was very peaceful. No war. No worries...

Wake up...

What? Night looked up from the book and looked around for any signs of living though he knows it was impossible.

'That can't be right. Only Dream and I can go to this place...'

Please I know you can hear me...

'Who's there? Could it be there is another entity? But I've been absent for a long time... what if it was Dream?'

Nightmare... please wake up.

Suddenly, he felt himself being forcefully thrown out of Twilight. He felt himself pushed back to reality and he sat up right away, feeling light headed. What happened?

He blinked for a moment taking in the room he was in first. He recognized it as his room and... Dream was there.

"Dream? What are you doing here?"

Dream was looking down, not talking. Night was getting more and more worried.

"Hey, i-if it's about what happened I'm-"

"Why?"

Night stopped at the mysterious question.

"Pardon?"

"Why...?"

Night was getting no clue on what is he talking about.

"D-Dream, I don't understand could you-"

"Why didn't you tell me?!"

Night was surprised at Dream yelling at him, Dream was not angry but tears are rolling down his flushed face and a sorrowful look.

"Why? Why do you need to keep this from me?"

Dream said in an almost hushed tone. Night looked at his hands expecting the goopy ones but was surprise to see white bones. He scanned his arms and saw his purple tunic. Was he dreaming? But he just woke up! Maybe it was a dream within a dream thing? He pinched himself but found pain in dong so. He took a deep breath then faced Dream.

"Dream, I can explain please..."

Dream wiped away his tears and spoke.

"Why didn't you tell me, Brother?"

Night didn't know if he should lie, tell him he just don't want to tell him but he felt guilty already. Telling lies to his sweet sibling will just make it worse.
