8:50 PM

The cadets got back to the ship,, where the unicorn was watching a movie. Leaning back on his chair as his thoghts were distant. He seemed to be in another world, unable to truly focus on the movie. He had the photo album in hand...

His ears drooped as his pale blue eyes scanned the book. Then, his ears twitched as he hears the doors open. He glanced over to see his cadets walking through the doors.

He was rather confused, he knew that he said to come back before midnight. But he didnt think theyd be back this early.

He stood from his seat, putting the photo album on his seat as he gave a warm smile at the cadets.

" Ah,, i didnt think that you'd come back so early, wha-"

Before the unicorn could finish what he said. He noticed that his cadets were close to crying, and one already cried. He was about to ask what happened. Before he noticed something else

" ..w-wheres..Foz..? "

Asked he, the three winced as they looked down, not having the hear tto explain to the unicorn what had happened. Lars had his fists clenched as tears started falling from his cheeks, down to his chin.

Xuli's soft cries became sobs. And kyan couldnt hold it back. His tears flowed down like a stream, his eyes only having pain and guilt swirled in them.

And ubercorn got his answer.

" H-hes fine,, right-- h-he...he-"

The unicorn hoped his assumptions werent true. That his cadet was fine. That foz was fine, just. Roaming around, he was fine

He was fine!!

" Were..s-sorry- u-ubErcorn-"

Choked out the gymnast, while his cries filled the room along with the others. The unicorn winced at the answer.

His eyes widen in shock

" no.. "

His heart was racing

" n-no.."

   Tears pricked the corners of his eyes.

" p-please-"

His chest ached, heart breaking from the words of the gymnast.

" p-please say he i-isnt-"

He tried to say,, but his words slowly fading to silence. As tears welle dup in his eyes, he pleaded for them to say it isnt true. He begged for fate to tell him its all a lie.

And as the hopes slowly fade with the truth clouding him in darkness

He begged.

He prayed for the world to show that this wasnt real.

Pleaded for the universe to make this all just a nightmare
