More WTDWxDW AU Lore

After today's stream I figured I share more lore for this AU. Starting with Oliver since Derpy shared some Oliver art.

Oliver:

So TV head incident doesn't take place. He's fine ^^.

He and his siblings end up living with Sara and Delilah.

Television is a ship, and Connie and Vee would try to get Oliver to spill despite him not doing so. Also Damien and Celio know about the toons.

He meets Sara and Lewis months after they became friends. He's afraid of the toons (mostly Yatta) at first and his two ex-friends give him a bottle of acetone to use to protect himself. The ex-friends tell him its just a toon spray to keep them away from him. Lewis finds out and tells him its acetone and the effects it would have on toons. Sara doesn't know about this, but when he sees his ex-friends bully Sara he stands up for her and rejects his ex-friends despite them guilt tripping or gaslighting him to stay.

One of his ex friends is a girl named Jenna an old OC I had during my FNAF fandom era, if you remember her you qualify for a discount.

Oliver and Yatta get close (friendship) as the AU progresses. Yatta comforts him after his parents abandoned him and his siblings and all the pinata toon can do was stay with him and hug him.

Other then Yatta, Oliver bonds with Astro, Goob, and Connie.

Before his parents left him, they didn't like Sara and the toons because Sara was considered "not normal". Oliver was mad about that, and there were even times Sara visited that Oliver's parents would pull him to the side and tell him what they thought of her. He was estranged from his parents before, but this was an all time low.

More below...

Litho's Role:

I still have yet to decide on what Litho's role is, but as of now (until I decide to change it AGAIN) he's now a toon in the Dandy World reboot (I'll share that in a future post or if curious feel free to ask). Though my creative mind has created an AU where Litho does possess Sara and is somehow able to control the toon's keeping them in twisted form. It's a very dark sub AU and I do think about it a lot.

Other Lore:

I have thought of funny quotes and moments for this AU I shared with friends. They are canon to the storyline, but I may commission artist for these scenes. I'd commission Derpy but I don't know if they'll do crossover stuff.

Okay that's all see you next update!!!

Show Me Your Brave Heart Chapter 3- Meeting New Friends

Here is the next chapter! I got started on this chapter as I worked on Chapter 2, which put me into a ton of writer's block thanks to certain dialogues and scenes. Luckily, I got them all fixed before I could share Chapter 2 with my beta reader, and it looks great.

Then…I had a bit of writer's block working on this chapter too, as well as quickly falling from Digimon hyperfixation. I tried my best to finish it before the hyperfixation went down, which I did. Now it’s back thanks to a brand new Digimon game coming soon!

Big thanks to my beta reader @gigilefache.

Enjoy!

Wiatt, Dorumon, Lewis, Oliver, and Sara were walking home from school and headed straight to Wiatt’s house. Upon arrival, Wiatt slowly opened the door and made sure his dad wasn’t around. From the looks of it, his dad got most of the unpacking done.

“Dad!” Wiatt called out. After a bit of silence, he concluded, his dad wasn’t around. He opened the door wider and ushered his friends in. “Okay, come in.”

Dorumon came in first and went straight to Wiatt’s room with Lewis and his friends right behind him. Wiatt followed the group to make sure his father wasn’t just in the kitchen or another part of the room. Once the group made it to his room, Wiatt closed the door and pulled his computer chair to sit down as his friends sat on his bed.

“Alright Nicholson, you better start explaining,” Sara demanded.

Lewis frowned and put his hand on her shoulder, “Darling, relax.”

“I will not relax, Lewis!” Sara yelled as she pulled back from Lewis. “We almost died from that…that…thing!”

“You mean Digimon?” Wiatt corrected.

Sara glared and crossed her arms, “Whatever.”

Wiatt sighed, “Don’t worry, I’ll explain everything.” He reassured the girl.

Sara glared, hoping the new kid would explain himself.

“So, what is a Digimon anyway?” Oliver asked.

“We’re Digital Monsters from the Digiworld,” Dorumon answered.

“The Digiworld?” Sara asked.

“It’s another world where monsters called Digimon live,” Wiatt answered. “However, for a while, I’ve been hearing that Digimon have been appearing here.”

“Wiatt.” Sara pulled her phone from her backpack. She went to her photos app, and went to the gallery she saved for all of her monster research. “You mean all these creatures are technically Digimon?” She asked as she handed her phone to Wiatt.

Wiatt looked through the photos and nodded, “Yep, those are Digimon.” He confirmed, handing Sara her phone back.

Sara took her phone and put it back in her bag. “Okay…so now that we know what they are, what are they doing in Happy Hollow?” She asked.

“That I don’t know,” Wiatt answered.

Sara sighed, rolling her eyes.” Great.”

“All I know is that Digimon have been coming here through portals,” Wiatt revealed.

“How do you know that, darling?” Lewis asked.

“Because I’ve been to the Digital World many times before moving here.”

“You what?!” Sara exclaimed.

Wiatt nodded, “Why do you think I know about what’s going on?”

Lewis, Sara, and Oliver looked at one another before turning their gaze back to Wiatt. “Do you know how these portals are made?” Lewis asked.

“Sadly no,” Wiatt replied, shaking his head.

Lewis and his friends frowned in reply. Sara was disappointed to hear everything put her one step behind over this monster mystery in her hometown.

“Are all Digimon nice?” Oliver asked.

Dorumon nodded, “Of course.” They replied. “Most are nice, but some are bad.” They answered. Oliver shivered at the fact that there were some evil Digimon out there.

“The Digimon appearing in Happy Hollow, have you heard of some incidents?” Wiatt asked.

Lewis and his friends tried to think of what incidents came to the top of their heads from their meet-ups and club meetings. “Well, darling,” Lewis started. “Most of the incidents are just the monsters roaming around the forest areas.”

“Though we did have some incidents, such as the company’s computer systems going down or attacks in the woods.” Oliver pointed out.

“Sometimes it’s a bit of both,” Sara added.

“Hmm…” Wiatt replied. He looked over at Dorumon, who knew what Wiatt was thinking about and nodded in reply, making the young boy smile. “Well, I’m glad you met me.” He got off his chair and went over to the shoebox and opened it. Wiatt then presented the three with devices similar to what he used during the fight with Keramon. The difference with his device and the three in the box was that the ones in the box were blue with dark blue buttons. “I was going to give one to Lewis, but I trust you two enough to get one of your own.”

“What are these?” Lewis asked as he took the device from the box.

“Digivices,” Wiatt answered. “It’s what I use to help Dorumon to digivolve.”

“Digivolve?” Lewis questioned. His eyes widened, remembering seeing Dorimon digivolve into Dorumon. “Wait, was that what we saw back at the school?”

Wiatt nodded, “Correct. Once a Digimon has bonded with you, a special phenomenon happens where Digimon evolve stronger.”

“So, Dorumon can evolve stronger?” Sara asked.

Wiatt was about to answer before his Digimon cut him off. “Yep! It’s only temporarily, but I can stay in this form as long as I like.” Dorumon replied.

Oliver and Sara looked at the remaining Digivices, looked at each other, and went back to the box. “Are you giving them to us?” Sara asked.

Wiatt nodded in reply.

“Why me? I don’t even trust you enough.” She added.

“I don’t trust you either, but you have tons of knowledge of Digimon like I do,” Wiatt answered.

Sara looked at the Digivice in the box and was unsure about grabbing it. She then saw Oliver grab one, making her frown as she was left out. With a sigh, she grabbed her Digivice as well before looking at it. “Okay, so now what?”

The second she said that, her Digivice, as well as her friends' Digivices, started to glow. Not long after, Wiatt’s computer began to glow to make him smile.

“W-What’s going on?” Lewis asked.

“Well, just like me and Dorumon.” Wiatt started putting his hand on Dorumon’s head. “You three need Digimon partners if you want to get up close with them.”

Soon, three balls of light appeared out of the computer and appeared in front of Lewis, Oliver, and Sara. The lights then formed into three Digimon who smiled at their new partners.

The first Digimon looked like a rabbit with four ears. Her body was pale pink, while her ears were purple; she had a crescent moon on her forehead, pink eyes, and a cowlick. She also had a pair of crescent moons on her hands and one on her torso, and a pink ribbon around her with a silver crescent moon medallion.

The second Digimon looked like a mouse with its left ear stitched up with a red witch hat. One eye was green while the other eye was a red button. The shoe they used was orange and yellow, with two white bandages made into an X and a dark orange trap with a green eyeball. The bottom part of the shoe was silver, looking like a mouth.

The last Digimon looked like a Triceratops with a white body, with black-tipped horns and tail, small black spikes on his back, a small pair of black wings, and red tip spikes on its frill. He also wore a red bracelet and a blue bandana around his neck.

Lewis and his friend’s eyes widened in shock, seeing the monsters right in front of their faces.

“Lewis, Sara, Oliver, meet your Digimon partners. Lunamon, Shoemon, and Gammamon.” Wiatt introduced the Digimon in the order they came alive.

Lunamon looked at her partner Lewis, and her eyes widened and sparkled at the sight of him. “Are you really my partner?” She asked.

Lewis was nervous and gave a slow nod. “Y-Yeah.” He replied.

Lunamon giggled and hugged her human partner, surprising him. “It’s so nice to meet you, I’m Lunamon!”

“Uh…I’m Lewis. Lewis Bright.” Lewis introduced himself. Lunamon snuggled and hugged him closer, giving a lovely sight. Seeing the creature was harmless, he gave a small smile and rubbed her back.

“It’s nice to meet you, Sara!” Shoemon beamed as she jumped up and down. “I’m Shoemon.”

As Shoemon introduced themselves, Sara’s head followed along with the Digimon. “Uh…nice to…meet you…too.” She said, feeling dizzy from Shoemon’s non-stop bouncing.

Gammamon looked at Oliver up and down, making the taller boy nervous. “You look tall,” Gammamon commented.

“Uh…thanks…” Oliver replied.

“Are all humans tall like you?” Gammamon asked.

“S-Some do,” Oliver replied.

“Cool!” Gammamon’s eyes widened and sparkled with amazement. He then jumped on Oliver and gave him a hug, which made the taller boy yell in shock. “I’ve been waiting for the day to meet you!”

“G-Great!” Oliver squeaked. The scared Gammamon hugged him tightly.

Wiatt and Dorumon turned to each other. “I think they’ll get along just fine,” Dorumon said.

“Yep,” Wiatt replied.

Meanwhile, at a shopping center not far from the neighborhood, things were normal at first till the internet went down, leaving the workers frustrated that nothing was going through and that they were being logged off their systems.

“Hey, what’s going on!” A lady complained.

“Your computer is not working, too?” Her male co-worker asked.

“Yeah.”

On the computer screen, Keramon was seen eating the data of the internet like he was a termite eating through wood. This internet eating caused the whole shopping center to lose internet and shut down the computers. After eating enough data, Keramon started to glow and digivolved into a chrysalis-like monster with sharp tentacles.

Keramon’s new form then started to come out of one of the electrical billboards, scaring all the civilians in the shopping center.

Dorumon’s eyes widened, and he growled, looking out the window. Wiatt took notice of his partner’s behavior, “What’s wrong, buddy?” He asked.

“Trouble’s afoot,” Dorumon said.

Wiatt looked over at his friends and their Digimon, “Hey, would you guys like to see your Digimon in action?” He asked.

“W-Wait, we’re fighting Digimon with our Digimon?” Sara asked.

“Of course, that’s the adventure of having a Digimon, Sara,” Shoemon replied.

“Fighting bad Digimon!” Gammamon added as he put his claws into a fist and started to punch the air.

Sara sighed, feeling slightly protected by the Digimon, but not enjoying this whole adventure with monsters.

Wiatt, Lewis, his friends, and their Digimon started to follow Dorumon, who tracked the scent of the Digimon. “We’re getting close,” Dorumon said, continuing to sniff out the Digimon. They continued to follow the Digimon till the group made it to the shopping center, where many of the customers were talking about what had just happened earlier.

Seeing so many people, Wiatt turned to the Digimon behind him, “Alright you four stay hidden while the others and I check to see what’s going on.” Wiatt said. Dorumon and the rest of the Digimon nodded in agreement and hid in the bushes as Wiatt and the others went to the civilians.

“Is everything alright?” Wiatt asked.

The civilians turned to Wiatt and his friends, and some of the civilians sighed seeing Sara, Lewis, and Oliver. Wiatt was taken aback seeing the reaction of the civilians towards his friends.

“Oh great, they got another one.” One man said.

“Uh…” Wiatt started, turning to his friends, who felt nervous seeing the adults. “We're just here to ask what’s going on.”

“Look, I’m not asking you weirdo kids anything. There’s no such thing as monsters. Grow up!” The man yelled as he walked away in a huff.

Wiatt scoffed and crossed his arms. “Wow, jerk.” He grumbled.

“Get used to it, darling,” Lewis spoke up. “We are considered annoying to an extent,” He then turned to Sara, “though one of us takes the cake.”

Sara glared and turned to her friend, “What is that supposed to mean?” She asked.

“I mean you do bother strangers with your monster hunts, darling.” Lewis commented.

“Agreed,” Oliver added.

Sara growled and glared at her friends.

“Excuse me.” The group turned to the female worker, who walked over to them. “You're those monster hunter kids, correct?”

“Yeah,” Sara replied.

“Okay, you have to believe me, but after the computers started to go off, I saw a figure that appeared on my computer.” The worker explained.

Sara took out her notebook and pen, clicking them. “What did the figure look like?” She asked.

“Well, it had a huge head, huge hands, and it had this creepy smile as it continued to eat the data.” The worker explained.

Wiatt and the others gasped, knowing it was Keramon causing trouble again.

Sara finished writing down what the worker explained and looked back up. “What happened next?” She asked.

“Well…the monster started to glow and change before escaping through one of the billboards. After that, who knows where it went?” The worker explained.

Sara was finishing writing down what the worker explained and nodded, seeing that she got everything. “Anything else?” She asked.

The worker shook her head.

“I see,” Wiatt replied. “Well, thanks for telling us, ma’am.”

“You’re welcome. Hope are computers will work tomorrow.” The worker said before walking away.

“Come on, we need to find Keramon and fast,” Wiatt said. The four left the shopping center and went to where their Digimon were hiding. There, they saw Dorumon, and the other Digimon turned towards them.

“Find anything?” Lunamon asked.

Wiatt nodded, “Apparently Keramon caused problems online, digivolved, and escaped.” He explained.

Dorumon glared and started to sniff out the area to find Keramon. He then caught a scent and pointed to where the evil Digimon was located. “He’s not far,” Dorumon said. The beast Digimon then sprinted off, hunting for Keramon.

“Dorumon, wait!” Wiatt yelled as he chased after his Digimon partner with his friends following behind.

Dorumon continued to get a hold of Keramon’s scent, growling, knowing he was close. He heard a stick snap and quickly turned, snarling. Dorumon looked around the woods, hoping to find Keramon, as sounds from all over caught his attention.

“Where are you?” Dorumon growled.

He heard rustling and branches cracking around him. Dorumon searched high and low for Keramon.

Dorumon gasped as he turned to Wiatt, his friends, and their Digimon. “Stop.” He warned.

“Huh?” Wiatt asked.

“He’s here.”

Wiatt looked around and stood by his partner as the two looked around, hoping to find Keramon. It felt eerie as the woods were quiet, too quiet. Oliver and Sara were frightened being in the woods, with Oliver holding Gammamon tightly.

“O-Oliver, please let go.” Gammamon struggled.

Lewis and Lunamon also looked around until the latter’s ear twitched, hearing something. Lunamon turned around and saw no one in sight. “He’s here.” She whispered.

Lewis heard his Digimon speak and looked around as well for Keramon. “W-Where darling?” He asked.

Lunamon looked around and gasped, “Look out!” look out!” She shouted as she pushed Lewis down, as Keramon swooped down ready to attack.

The group turned to see Keramon in their new form growling at them.

“That’s Keramon!?” Oliver yelled.

“Not really!” Shoemon replied. “It’s Keramon’s Champion form, Chrysalimon!”

“Champion form!?” Sara asked. She then looked down at Shoemon, “So that means you guys can get bigger and stronger?”

Shoemon smiled and nodded, “Correct!”

Sara groaned, “Wiatt, what did you pull us into!?” 

“Uh…” Wiatt tried to think of a good reason, but got attacked by Chrysalimon’s tentacles.

“Wiatt!” Dorumon yelled. He growled at Chrysalimon, who chuckled evilly. “Metal Canon!” Dorumon launched an iron sphere from his mouth and launched it at the evil Digimon. However, due to how strong they were, it didn’t do damage.

Chrysalimon was about to attack again till Lunamon stepped into battle. “Tear Shoot!” She yelled as her forehead antenna launched a water orb at the evil Digimon. Chrysalimon hissed and used their tentacles to attack Lunamon. 

“Lunamon!” Lewis yelled, going over and holding her. “Are you okay?”

Lunamon nodded. “I’m fine.”

Chrysalimon then grabbed Lewis and Lunamon, holding them tonight as he laughed evilly.

“Lewis!” Wiatt, Sara, and Oliver yelled, concerned for their friend.

“Don’t worry, Oliver!” Gammamon exclaimed.

“We’ll save them!” Shoemon added. The two Digimon went to face Chrysalimon, ready to fight them, with Gammamon going first.

Energy appeared in Gammamon’s claws as he flew to Chrysalimon and yelled, “Breakclaw!” He scratched Chrysalimon in the face, causing them to shriek.

Now it was Shoemon’s turn to attack. They hoped before jumping in the air, “Petit Needle!” She yelled. Shoemon took a deep breath and launched needles from their mouth. Chrysalimon braced themselves from the attack, causing them to let go of Lunamon and Lewis.

Sara and Oliver went over to their friend and helped him up, “Lewis!” They both shouted.

“Are you okay?” Sara asked.

“I’m fine, darlings,” Lewis replied.

Chrysalimon was getting angry, as they used their tentacles to swipe Shoemon and Gammamon away. The two opposing Digimon skidded to the ground, causing Sara and Oliver to go to them.

“Gammamon!” Oliver yelled.

“I’m fine Oliver,” Gammamon said, looking up at his partner.

“What about you?” Sara asked, holding Shoemon.

The puppet Digimon looked up at her partner. “I’m okay.”

Dorumon growled, ready to fight Chrysalimon. “Wiatt, let’s do it!”

Wiatt’s eyes widened. “Do what?” He asked.

A smirk appeared on Dorumon’s face, “You know.”

The young boy’s eyes widened. “No. Absolutely not!” Wiatt yelled.

“But Wiatt.”

“No! Remember last time I let you Digivolve!?”

Lewis and his friends turned to Wiatt and Dorumon. “Why can’t you let Dorumon digivolve, Nicholson?” Sara asked, glaring at the smaller boy.

“Yeah,” Lewis added. “Didn’t you say Dorumon can Digivolve into something stronger?”

“I did, but…” Wiatt paused. He was about to explain why, but he had just met his new friends and didn’t want to scare them off. “It’s complicated…” Before he could answer, he saw Chrysalimon about to attack. “Look out!”

Lewis, his friends, and their Digimon turned around and saw Chrysalimon’s tentacles coming towards them. Everyone tried to get away from them; however, they were caught one by one, except Dorumon.

“Wiatt!” Dorumon yelled.

Everyone struggled to get free from Chrysalimon’s tentacles, but every time they struggled, the evil Digimon held them tighter as he chuckled evilly.

“Wiatt, let’s Digivolve now!” Dorumon yelled.

“N-No!” Wiatt yelled back.

“Wiatt, whatever Dorumon needs to do, he has to do it now or we all die!” Sara yelled. Chrysalimon’s tentacles held her and her friends tighter, which couldn’t make them breathe. 

“B-but.” Wiatt tried to argue.

“Darling, please!” Lewis begged.

Wiatt and his friends couldn’t breathe any longer, and soon Chrysalimon's remaining tentacle got sharper, ready to impale the group.

“Wiatt, make your decision now!” Lunamon yelled.

Wiatt looked between his friends and Dorumon, who looked concerned, seeing his friends in danger. As much as he didn’t want to Digivolve Dorumon, he was running out of options at this point. 

With a sigh, Wiatt tried to use his left hand to grab his Digivice from his pocket. Despite the struggle and with time running out, he tried his best to grab his Digivice. The said item started to glow, and soon Dorumon started to glow as well.

Oliver opened his eyes and saw Dorumon glowing. “Guys, look at Dorumon!” He yelled. Lewis, Sara, and the Digimon turned to look at the other Digimon, being surrounded by a yellow aura.

Chrysalimon paused and looked over at Dorumon as Wiatt finally got his hand into his pocket and pulled out his Digivice, as the light glowed brighter, blinding everyone.

A blast of light came through the Digivice and went towards Dorumon.

“Dorumon, digivolve too…” Dorumon yelled.

The light hit Dorumon in the chest, causing him to glow and grow bigger. His claws, feet, and pair of wings grew bigger, as well as a furry white collar around his neck. The glow faded, showing Dorumon looking darker and bigger.

“Dorugamon!”

Lewis, Oliver, and Sara were in shock seeing Dorumon, or now Dorugamon, had grown bigger. Wiatt sighed, relieved it didn’t happen like last time.

Dorugamon growled and ran to tackle Chrysalimon, causing them to let go of Wiatt and his friends. The group fell down to the ground and looked up at Dorugamon as he and Chrysalimon were battling it out. Chrysalimon used their tentacles and held Dorugamon’s hands and feet, but this gave the latter a chance to use his attack.

“Power Metal!” Dorugamon yelled as he launched a large iron ball from his mouth at the evil Digimon.

Chrysalimon shrieked and let go of Dorugamon, which gave him the chance to headbutt Chrysalimon into a tree. The evil Digimon struggled to get up, but Dorugamon came by and was ready to scratch Chrysalimon. The evil Digimon quickly dodged the attack and went to attack next.

“Data Crusher!” Chrysalimon shouted as he launched his tentacles at Dorugamon.

The beast dragon Digimon dodged the attack, grabbed Chrysalimon’s tentacles, and swung him around before slamming them into a tree.

“Woah,” Lewis said. “Dorugamon is tough.” He turned and saw Wiatt keeping an eye on Dorugamon, with a stern look on his face.

Chrysalimon struggled to get up before Dorugamon came by and clawed it in the face. He was about to do it again, but…

“That’s enough, Dorugamon!”

Dorugamon turned to Wiatt, who looked worried for him. “That’s enough.” He repeated.

Dorugamon growled and turned to Chrysalimon. “You better go away.” Dorugamon let go of Chrysalimon and went back to Wiatt and his friends.

Seeing Dorugamon distracted, Chrysalimon was ready to attack from behind, but Dorugamon was able to sense it and was ready to attack before Chrysalimon could. 

“Cannonball!” Dorugamon yelled as he launched multiple iron balls at Chrysalimon, which caused the evil Digimon to be launched in the air, never to be seen again.

Lewis and his friends were amazed by Dorugamon’s power. “That was awesome!” Oliver cheered. “Wiatt, Dorugamon is amazing!”

Wiatt didn’t respond as he walked over to his partner, Digimon.

“Darling, you okay?” Lewis asked.

Dorugamon breathed heavily and sighed as he reverted into Dorumon. He fell to his knees as Wiatt put a hand on his head. “You okay, Dorumon?” Wiatt asked.

Dorumon finally caught his breath and looked up at Wiatt. “Did I do good?”

Wiatt smiled and hugged his partner, “You did great, buddy. Real good.”

Dorumon smiled and hugged his human partner back.

“Aren’t those two amazing?” Lunamon asked, her eyes still sparkling from watching the fight.

Lewis looked over at Wiatt and Dorumon, letting go of the hug, and celebrating their win. He blushed seeing how brave the two were, “Yeah…they are darling.” He said.

Nothing Bad Happens Chap. 12- Hazel and Marissa

Here is the next chapter! I’m excited to introduce the Cabrera’s for this Au! Like I mentioned last chapter this chapter was supposed to be Chapter 11, but I switched them because I needed more ideas for the Cabrera’s and that I wanted to introduce the defunct animatronics asap because of some ideas that were hyper fixated in my brain.

Thanks to my beta reader @gigilefache, who also appears in the fanfic as well!

Enjoy!!

A mother and daughter parked their car in the Dreamworld parking lot one morning. The daughter sighed as she looked at the facility.

The mother, Marissa, looked at her daughter and sighed as well, “Hazel, why are you sad?” She asked. “I thought you’d be excited going to Dreamworld?”

“I’m not sad. I just…” Hazel said as she sighed. “My classmates are going to be here, and you know how everyone at school hates me?”

Marissa sighed and frowned. Her daughter was different then most kids. Hazel loved horror, ghosts, cryptids, and mysteries. However, this interest got kids scared about Hazel.

“I know sweetie, but there’s lots of kids here. Not just the ones who go to your school.” Marissa reassured her daughter, ruffling her hair.

Hazel sighed as her and her mom got out of the car, Hazel grabbed her brown backpack and put it on, and walked together hand in hand inside the Dreamworld facility.

Once inside, Hazel saw so many kids in the lobby as they waited to get in, some she even knew from school. As they were in line, Marissa’s phone rang.

“Hello.” Marissa answered as she put the phone in her ear. Hazel looked up at her mom, and saw her expression change into a frown. “O-Oh, I’ll be there soon.” Marissa hung up the phone and sighed.

“Work again?” Hazel asked, though the tone of her voice knew this was a regular occurrence.

Marissa sighed, “Sort of. I have to attend a meeting, but it’s only for an hour and I’ll be back to spend time with you. I promise.”

“That’s what you always say…”

Marissa frowned. “Look, this time will be different. I promise.”

“You sure?” Hazel asked.

“Positive.” Marissa replied.

Hazel gave a small smile as the two made it to the counter. Marissa paid for Hazel’s entrance fee, and gave her an attractions wristband.

“Alright, I’ll see you in an hour.” Marissa said.

“See you in an hour.” Hazel replied somberly.

Marissa kissed her daughter on her forehead before leaving the building for work. Once she was gone, Hazel sighed and looked at the map to see what she could do. 

Hazel heard gasps behind her. She turned to see the Walker Triplets frozen in fear. They slowly walked away before going up the elevator to the Arcadescape.

“Of course.” Hazel shook her head.

Hazel decided to walk away from the lobby and went to the employees only area of the facility. The hallway wasn’t as dark as the office rooms illuminated light. Hazel looked at the offices, seeing no one in sight, giving her a free pass to go through. During the walk she saw a door slightly ajar and heard voices. She took a peek and saw Wiatt and the founder trio, sitting down in a circle, having a discussion.

“So, you’re wanting to make a new commercial for Dreamworld?” Wiatt asked.

“Indeed darling.” Lewis replied.

“It’s been a couple of months, and with the animatronics talking it would bring lots of guests to the facility.” Sara explained.

“Plus, you're the one with the camera, Wiatt.” Oliver added.

Wiatt looked at his camera in his hand before looking up at his boyfriend and friends. Wiatt gave a chuckle, “okay, me being the camera man, I get.” He replied. Wiatt turned to Lewis, “but didn’t you have a camera, Lewis?”

Lewis chuckled nervously, “funny story. I lost my camera when I moved from my house to Sara’s apartment.”

“Good news, I kept those videos safe and sound.” Sara added.

Lewis sighed and smiled at his friend.

Wiatt sighed as well, “alright. I guess I’ll help.”

The founder trio smiled at the prospect of a new commercial. Hazel smiled seeing the adults getting along with the ideas, wishing she had a similar friendship. She was ready to step back and head back to the lobby only to bump into the door causing it to squeak. Hazel gasped as Wiatt and the others got up hearing the door.

The adults were in shock seeing Hazel. “W-What’s a child doing here?” Lewis asked.

“I’m not sure.” Wiatt replied.

Sara got up and walked over to the young girl, who gave a sheepish smile. Hazel looked up and gave a nervous chuckle. “I’m in trouble, aren’t I?” She asked.

“Depends.” Sara replied. “What are you doing here?”

“Just wanted to escape the crowds and ended up here.” Hazel explained. “Hi, I’m Hazel.” She held her hand out to the female founder.

Sara smiled at the young girl, and shook her hand. “I’m Sara Covetman.”

As the two shook hands, Hazel realized she was shaking hands with one of Dreamworld’s founders. “Y-Your one of the founders, aren’t you?”

“I am!” Sara replied.

Hazel got nervous and let go, and tried to look mature, like her mom would be at times. “Oh, it’s nice to meet you.”

Sara chuckled, “you don’t have to be formal with anyone else.”

“Oh okay.” Hazel replied, as she leaned on the wall, crossing her arms. “Sorry my mom likes to be formal, and I figure I will try it too.”

Sara giggled. Wiatt, Lewis and Oliver then came by seeing the girl. “Oh, here’s the other two founders Lewis Bright and Oliver Acrimony.”

“It’s nice to meet you, darling.” Lewis said.

“Nice to meet you too.” Oliver said.

Wiatt cleared his throat. He crossed his arms and glared at the female founder.

“And who are you? I haven’t heard of a 4th founder.” Hazel said.

Sara snickered, which earned her an harsher glare from Wiatt. “I am Wiatt Nicholson. I’m a mechanic and,” he paused to put his arms around Lewis, “this lovely man’s boyfriend.”

Lewis blushed red as a tomato. Hazel made an ooooh sound, which made him turn even redder. Wiatt gave a kiss on his boyfriend’s cheek. Lewis chuckled and kissed his boyfriend on the cheek, causing Wiatt to squeak and turn red as well.

Hazel giggled seeing the couple.

Sara rolled her eyes in response, “anyways, kid, we should take you back to your parents. They’re probably worried about you.”

“Oh, my mom dropped me off,” Hazel replied, “she hopes I have fun at a party here with some classmates.”

“Still, we should take you back to your friends,” Oliver said.

Hazel frowned and turned away, “I don’t have many friends. I’m the one the other kids don't like to be with.” She explained, “Mom said coming here, I should make new friends, but it didn’t work.”

The Founder Trio and Wiatt looked at each other and frowned. They related to the young girl’s situation, mostly Sara. With a small smile the female founder went over to the young girl.  “You know, we’ve been there before.” 

“Really?” Hazel asked.

Sara nodded, “why do you think we built Dreamworld in the first place?” 

“I don’t know? I just thought you were trying to find a place to build talking robots.” Hazel answered.

Wiatt chuckled as his boyfriend and best friend glared at him. Wiatt stopped chuckling and cleared his throat.

“Well, we built this place so no child will be left alone.” Sara explained.

Hazel smiled, but quickly frowned, “guess I failed, I'm not making any friends here.”

Sara thought for a bit, and snapped her fingers with a smile. “Hey, how about you join me and my friends in helping us with our commercial?”

“What?” Lewis, Oliver and Wiatt exclaimed.

“D-Darling please think this through!” Lewis yelled.

“I did.” Sara replied, putting her hands to her hips. Lewis and Oliver groaned knowing Sara didn’t really think this through.

Hazel blinked and was surprised. “Really? I can spend time with you guys?” She asked.

Sara nodded. “It’ll be fun, we’re going to walk around the facility, and record a few things for the commercial.”

 “Alright! I’m in!” Hazel beamed.

“Great!” Sara exclaimed, clapping her hands together.

Lewis, Oliver and Wiatt looked at each other. “Think this might be a bad idea?” Wiatt whispered.

“Who knows.” Lewis and Oliver replied as the three boys went to the elevators to see Sara and Hazel picking out a place to go and record.

“Alright, pick which floor you want to go to.” Sara offered.

Hazel looked through all the different levels of Dreamworld on an elevator map and pointed at the MadHouse. “That looks fun!”

Sara smiled and nodded. “Okay, let’s go guys!” She pressed the button to go in the elevator and down to the desired level. Lewis, Oliver, and Wiatt sighed.

While they were going down the elevator, Hazel kept glancing at Wiatt’s camera and every time Wiatt saw her, she turned away before taking another quick peek. “That’s a weird camera you have.” She commented.

Wiatt looked at his camera and gave a small smile, “it’s my grandfather’s camera.” He answered. “He gave it to my dad, and my dad gave it to me.”

“And then you’ll give it to your kid when you and Lewis have one, right?” Hazel asked, with a wink.

Wiatt and Lewis blushed in embarrassment and looked at one another. “Well, if we have kids.” Wiatt replied.

“We’ll see.” Lewis replied, nudging his boyfriend. Wiatt groaned and pulled his hat down, covering his face.

Hazel chuckled, “do they act like this all the time?”

“Oh, they do.” Sara and Oliver replied at the same time, smirking.

Lewis’s face turned a deep red as he glared at his friends and mouthed, “I hate you two.” However, Sara and Oliver chuckled, knowing their best friend didn’t mean it.

“Well,” Hazel spoke up, “I bring my camera at times too.” She opened her backpack and took out her hazel colored digital camera with a dark green strap. “Tada!”

The founders were amazed seeing Hazel owned a digital camera. “I’ve seen those digital cameras before.” Oliver said. “My twin siblings begged me to buy one for them.”

“You should buy it for them!” Hazel exclaimed.

Oliver chuckled, “well, not yet. I will, I promise.”

“Good.”

The bell of the elevator rang and the five stepped out and walked into the MadHouse. At that point Sara nudged Wiatt, causing him to turn on his camera and point it at her. “Welcome to the MadHouse!” Sara exclaimed. “Here at the MadHouse everyday is Halloween filled with treats, and scares. However, nothing scares me.”

“Boo.”

Sara squeaked and jumped as her friends laughed at her. The MadHouse animatronic, LolliPop, was the one who scared her.

“Man, I didn’t even yell Boo and you jumped!” Pop laughed.

“Good news, I caught that on video.” Wiatt replied, giving the animatronic a thumbs up. Pop gave a thumbs up back.

Sara glared. “Delete it now, Wiatt.”

“Hmm…” Wiatt thought. “It would be nice if the commercial showed one of the founders being scared.” 

Sara started to run after Wiatt who stepped back and tried to keep his camera away from her. “Give it to me!” Sara yelled.

“Nope!” Wiatt mocked.

“Give it!”

“Come on darlings, knock it off.” Lewis said, trying to hold Sara back.

“Wiatt, just listen to Sara.” Oliver said, holding the mechanic back.

Hazel chuckled watching the four mess around. She turned to see Gigi putting up a poster of Lollipop and the triplets that she drew herself. The young girl walked over to the MadHouse employee smiling at her drawing. “Did you draw that?” She asked.

Gigi jumped and looked at the young girl, “oh, yes I did.”

“It looks amazing!”

“Gigi is one of our amazing artists at the facility.” Lewis explained as he and his friends walked over to the two. Sara and Wiatt were still glaring at one another despite being calmed down.

Gigi chuckled, “aww thanks Lewis.”

“Hey Gigi!” Lisa called out. Everyone turned to the Rollerink worker. “Are you busy? We need a few workers to help teach the kids how to dance the hokey pokey on skates.”

“Sorry, I got some posters to put up,” Gigi replied, “but I heard Hayden is available.”

Lisa smiled, “cool! I’ll grab him! Thanks!” She beamed before leaving to find the moody janitor.

“You’re welcome!” Gigi replied.

“You and Franny still like messing with Hayden, huh?” Wiatt asked, crossing his arms.

Gigi chuckled, “pretty much!”

Lisa then came back, “oh, before I go. We’re missing some roller skates at Rollerink.”

This surprised the founders, “why would someone steal roller skates?” Sara asked.

Lisa shrugged in reply. Suddenly a shout echoed across the halls. Everyone turned to see Liz losing her balance while skating at high speeds. People stepped back as the 12-year old barreled their way.

“Woah! Woah! Look out!” Liz screamed, as she was about to crash into Hazel.

“Ooof!” Liz and Hazel exclaimed at the same time, falling to the ground.

“Liz!” Oliver exclaimed. He helped his sister up. “Are you okay?”

Liz nodded, “I’m fine.”

“Why are you roller skating in the MadHouse, darling?” Lewis asked.

“Oh, Ben dared some of the kids to take the roller skates from Rollerink and ride around the facility for the thrill of it.” Liz explained.

Oliver sighed, not surprised his younger brother would plan something like this.

“Well, we got the answer to where the missing skates are.” Wiatt said.

“Yep.” Lisa replied.

“Aha!”

Everyone turned to see Franny, who looked tired and exhausted as she used the wall to hold herself up. “Found you kids!” She yelled, catching her breath.

“Uh Franny?” Lisa asked.

“Were you looking for the missing roller skates on skates?” Gigi asked.

“Yep! Figured it would make things a lot easier.” Franny replied.

Lisa rolled her eyes as Gigi chuckled over her best friend’s silly ideas. Liz chuckled as well, and took off the skates and handed them to the manager of Rollerink. “Sorry, Miss. Lisa.”

“It’s fine, guess I’ll hold off roller skating hooky pokey and help Franny get the rest of the skates back.” Lisa said, taking the skates from the young girl.

“Lisa, what if me and Franny go look for the missing skates.” Gigi suggested.

“Oh are you sure? Wouldn’t that interrupt your poster work?”

Gigi shook her head. “Nope, in fact we can also get help from others if needed.”

Lisa smiled, “alright then.” She replied. “Franny, once you collect the skates just have them up on the counter.”

Franny nodded. “Got it.”

“Oh, and you don’t need the skates Fran, just get your shoes.”

Franny looked down and sighed, “aww, but I was having fun using them.”

Lisa put her hands on her hips and pouted, then immediately held her hands out. Franny sighed and took off the skates and handed them to her co-worker.

“Let me grab my shoes. Gigi and I will look for the skates.” Franny said as she left to go back to Rollerink.

“Okay.” Lisa nodded.

Gigi smiled and followed her friend to Rollerink with Lisa following behind.

“This place has a lot of interesting workers.” Hazel commented to Lisa.

“It sure does.” Liz replied as she walked next to the younger girl. She then realized she had never met the girl before and smiled holding her hand out, “oh, I believe we haven’t met before, hi I’m Liz, Oliver’s younger sister.”

“I’m Hazel.” Hazel replied, shaking the girl’s hand.

The two girls let go, shaking their hands, as Liz chuckled.“Sorry you got caught up with the craziness, my brother decided it would be fun.”

“It sure looks like fun.” Hazel said with a smile.

“Oh it is!”

“Speaking of, where is Ben?” Oliver asked.

Before Liz could answer, some little kids started running out of the maze as Ben came out wearing roller skates and a hockey mask. He laughed maniacally, as he continued to chase after them.

Oliver and Liz groaned and shook their heads.

“Well, there’s your answer, Mr. Oliver.” Hazel pointed out.

Liz sighed, “I’ll grab him.” She said, going over to her brother. Her brother continued to laugh maniacally. Liz tapped her brother in the shoulder, causing him to turn around. His twin took off his mask and pointed at their older brother and his friends, who glared at him.

“Oh.” Ben said, giving a nervous chuckle. “H-Hey Oliver, what’s up!?” He was trying to act innocent, not realizing everyone saw him scaring little kids.

“Ben, what did I say about scaring the younger kids?” Oliver asked.

The boy twin rolled his and gave an irritated stare at his older brother. “That it’s not fun and you guys want less complaints.”

“Exactly!” Oliver replied.

Ben grumbled as Liz patted him on the back. She then decided to introduce her brother to her new friend.  “Uh Ben, meet Hazel. She’s our brother’s special guest.”

The male twin looked at the 8-year old girl and smirked. “Well it’s nice to meet you Hazel.” Ben said in a tone that made him sound suspicious. The male twin put his hand out. “Put it there!” 

Hazel looked at the boy’s hand and back at the young boy who gave a “sweet” smile. With a smirk, Hazel replied.

“You have an Electric Joy Shocker on that hand don't you?” Hazel asked.

Ben’s eyes widened. “Darn it!” He yelled.

“Darling, I thought we confiscated that from you after you constantly did it to Hayden a week ago?” Lewis exclaimed 

Ben chuckled, “hey, tell it to the animatronic twins who told me how to get to the confiscated items room.” He exclaimed pointing at LolliPop.

The adults turned to the MadHouse animatronic who gave a nervous whistle. “W-What?” Pop asked. “He gave us a giant chocolate bar!”

The adults then turned on Ben, whose eyes widened. He looked over at his sister, who shook her head that she wasn’t going to back him up. He then looked at the new girl, Hazel in hopes she would back him up.

“Sorry dude. You're on your own.” Hazel replied.

Ben groaned, “this is so unfair.”

“Ben,” Oliver spoke up. “You and Liz are going to help Gigi and Franny gather all of the missing roller skates.”

Ben’s mouth dropped. “What?” He yelled.

“If you help them now, you two might catch Hayden doing the hokey pokey on skates.” Oliver mentioned, giving a smirk.

Ben and Liz’s eyes widened and a smirk formed in their faces as they dashed off to find the skates. Liz turned to Hazel and waved goodbye to her. “See you later, Hazel!” Liz exclaimed.

“Later!” Hazel yelled back, waving as well. “They seem nice.”

Oliver chuckled, “they are! They can get into chaos, but are sweet when you get to know them.”

“I like the chaotic ones!” Hazel exclaimed.

Sara and the others laughed at her response.

A loud gasp was heard as the founders, Wiatt and Hazel turned to see the Walker Triplets in fear. “Uh…you three okay?” Wiatt asked.

The triplets didn’t respond and stepped back from the group before running off screaming. 

Hazel frowned and sighed, “I knew it.”

“Knew what?” Sara asked.

“How those three would react to seeing me.” Hazel answered. “Remember when I said I was an oddball?” The adults nodded in reply. “Well, those three avoid me, thanks to my classmates.”

“Why do they avoid you, darling?” Lewis asked.

“Well, I like scary things like analog horrors, cryptids, you name it.” Hazel said with a smile. However, it quickly turned into a frown, “but because of that, many kids think I’m a weirdo and keep others from being near me.”

Sara frowned, feeling bad for the young girl. She could relate being outcasted by her classmates thanks to her bullies and the incident that brought their demise. Seeing this young girl go through what she went through is why she built Dreamworld with her best friends in the first place. Determined, Sara put her hand on Hazel’s shoulder.

“You know, we see the triplets around here often and we’ll talk to them about how they treat you.” Sara said.

“Really?” Hazel asked, her eyes widening.

Sara nodded, “plus we’ve all been there before.”

Hazel blinked and turned to Wiatt, Lewis, and Oliver who nodded having been there themselves. She let out a chuckle, “glad to know I’m not alone in this.”

Sara chuckled and ruffled the young girl’s hair, making her laugh. “So, shall we continue with the tour and video?” She asked.

Hazel nodded. The five went over to the Rollerink, and to their surprise, saw Hayden and some of the Rollerink workers, dancing the hokey pokey on rollerskates. Or well, he was trying to dance, but kept slipping and falling, while there were kids younger then him, who could stay balanced on their skates.

Wiatt chuckled as he recorded this, which was caught by Hayden. He growled, seeing Wiatt and his friends.

“YOU!” Hayden growled.

“Run!” Wiatt squeaked.

The five ran off from Rollerink, and Hayden went to chase after them. The grumpy worker didn’t make it far as he fell face first, causing everyone, except Lisa, to laugh. The manager of Rollerink went over to Hayden and helped him up.

“Are you okay, Hayden?” Lisa asked.

“No.” He groaned in reply. He glared at Wiatt and his friends.

Later, Wiatt and his friends went to Trampoland. Hazel was having fun jumping on all the trampoline areas with Ribbondancer.

“Hey! I’m going to jump off and land on my feet like a cat!” Ribbondancer exclaimed.

“Do you want me to dare you?” Hazel asked, as she jumped up and down.

“Go for it!” Ribbondancer replied, giving the girl a four thumbs up.

“Do it!”

“Don’t do it!” The founders and Wiatt yelled.

Ribbondancer ignored their warnings, and did a few jumps, then a flip, before jumping off the trampoline, towards the ground. However, he landed on the next trampoline hard, and he jumped right back on the trampoline he was on before.

“Tada!” Ribbondancer exclaimed.

Hazel laughed, as the founders sighed in relief that Ribbondancer didn’t break, again.

Even later, the five went to Arcadescape and Hazel got to play arcade games with Wiatt while Lewis recorded the two playing.

“You're going down!” Hazel said, as she focused on her character. She smiled seeing she was almost at the finish line. However, a Cherry bomb came towards her, knocking her character out and her mouth dropped. Hazel turned to see Wiatt with a smug look on his face.

“Sorry, but you're going down.” Wiatt replied. He then used the speed power up to speed through the finish line and won. “Yes! The Arcade Prince wins yet again!”

Lewis chuckled and sighed dreamily. “He is an arcade prince.” He whispered. Lewis then realized he was holding the camera, and it caught what he just said. “I’ll edit that part out.”

After the fun day, Hazel had gotten hungry. So the five went back to the lobby to get some pizza, but Hazel froze seeing her mother coming in.

“Hazel!”

Hazel, Wiatt, and the founder trio looked to see Marissa coming in looking shocked that her daughter was hanging out with the adults. 

“Oh no.” Marissa whispered.

Hazel chuckled nervously. She slowly walked over to her mom, fiddling her fingers. “H-Hi mom. You’re here early.”

“Yeah, my meeting ended early.” Marissa answered. She then looked over at the adults of the facility, “please tell me my daughter didn’t cause trouble.”

Wiatt shook his head, “no, she was helping us.” He replied.

“Helping you?” Marissa asked, confused.

Wiatt nodded in reply. Lewis then spoke up, “you see darling, Hazel was joining us for a commercial we were making for the facility.”

Marissa then realized who she was talking to, which shocked her. “W-Wait, you're one of the founders of Dreamworld. Lewis, right?”

Lewis nodded, “indeed I am, darling.”

Marissa turned to Oliver and Sara, “and your Sara and Oliver aren’t you?” She asked; however, she called the two the other’s names.

“N-No. I’m Oliver.” Oliver corrected.

“And I’m Sara.” Sara added, correcting the other woman.

Marissa chuckled nervously, “oh sorry.” She apologized. “I’m Hazel’s mom, Marissa Cabrera.”

“Nice to meet you, Miss. Cabrera.” Lewis replied.

“Oh,” Marissa chuckled, “just Marissa, Lewis.”

“Oh, okay.” Lewis replied.

“I hope you don’t mind that your daughter was helping us.” Sara spoke up.

“Nah, it’s fine. “ Marissa turned to her daughter. “I was hoping she’d make friends with kids her age, but,” she paused as she looked at the founders, “I’m surprised she became friends with you.”

Sara frowned, “yeah Hazel told us what’s been going on.”

Marissa sighed, “I was hoping today this would be her chance and kids would get to know her, but I guess I was wrong.”

Sara gave a small smile to the mom, “well, she did befriend two kids.” She reminded her.

Marissa’s eyes widened, “she did?”

Sara nodded. “They're Oliver’s little brother and sister. They are a little older than her, but it’s close.”

“Yeah. I’m glad.” Marissa took Sara’s hand and shook them. “Thank you Miss. Covetman.”

Sara chuckled, “just call me Sara, Marissa.”

Hazel looked at her mom and the female founder when suddenly something clicked in her brain. A smile appeared on her face. “You know mom, as a thank you, we should invite the founders for dinner at our place.” She suggested.

Marissa quickly let go of Sara’s hand and turned to her daughter.  “Hazel, don’t make an offer like that!” She scolded her daughter.

“Hehe.” Hazel chuckled. “Sorry.”

Sara looked at her friends, who shrugged at the idea. They never had an offer like that before, well, except when Eric invited them for dinner. “Actually, we were going to have pizza together here at the facility, do you want to join us?” She asked.

“Uh…sure. I haven’t eaten yet.” Marissa replied.

“Great! Come with us!” Sara exclaimed, as she and the rest of the adults.

Hazel smiled and took her mom’s hand. “Come on mom. I have so much to tell you.” She said, trying to drag her to the dining hall.

“Okay, okay.” Marissa said, laughing. It was the first time in forever that Marissa saw her daughter smiling and laughing, and it brought joy to her face too. Even though it wasn’t the friends she was hoping for, the Dreamworld gang did make her daughter’s day memorable.

What do you think about Marissa X Sara

And also here

What do I think about them?

I LOVE THEM!! I do have AUs where they are a couple and you’ll see Sara go into a gay panic thinking of her! I’d say the AUs where MarissaxSara play the strongest (as of now) is NBH AU, Turning Back the Page, and my newest Dandy’s World crossover Au.

[thedreamworldlibrary]

Is Winnie his own person? If so, is he good?

Yep! Winnie is his own toon. As for Carlos, I'm not sure if he's dead or still alive. The AU does follow WTDW, but with some twists and turns to fit with Dandy's World too.

As for good...eh...he's a bit of an anti hero or chaotic neutral. Examples are Discord MLP:Fim and Impmon from Digimon Tammers

[thedreamworldlibrary]

Does Lewis get turn into a toon or something? Or is Starlight is his own person?

Starlight is his own person! No one dies in this Au (maybe…idk.) he does act like Lewis though but that’s because he asked Sara to help her with the Ichor process.

[thedreamworldlibrary]

Anyone wanna ask WTDWxDandy's World AU questions?

I'm off from work early and figured I have asks open about my newest AU. These can be any questions regarding the AU itself or the character's roles in the AU

[thedreamworldlibrary]

A Dreamworld Dandy's World AU Crossover: Dandy's Dreamworld!

So after getting into Dandy’s World I’ve been messing around with a crossover au with Delilah Keen being Sara’s mother. I have like 5 AUs in total of this concept, but one in mind that's been plaguing my mind is this one: Welcome to DreamGardens:

So here's what's going down:

Sara is Delilah Keen's daughter in this AU. No idea who the dad is, BUT its not Arthur if anyone was curious.

Gardenview does shut down, but later in time rather then 2002.

Instead of animatronics, Starlight and the others as well as Morris and Astra are toons created by ichor. Winnie is not possessed by Carlos, but that's unknown as of now.

Also unknown is the fate of Litho. Either he's around and bothering some other person for immortality leaving Sara alone, or this specific AU he does not exist. If I get ideas I'll add on to it via the fanfic.

Another (and last) unknown fate is Sara's bullies. Since Nightlight, Gruff, and Lorenzo are toons. Its highly unclear if the bullies just die or are alive (or a mix of both: one dies the rest are alive)

The toons do take care and befriend Sara during her childhood. So there are wholesome moments with the toons and Sara.

The Toon Handlers are concerned for Sara's wellbeing since she's friends with the toons and not human kids.

After Gardenview shuts down, the toons whereabouts are unclear. Either they ALL live with Sara and Delilah, or they live with the toon Handlers, Arthur, and Delilah and visit once in a while.

Sara still has Delilah as her mom. Her dad is unknown at this time. Celio is still around, but is Sara's babysitter then caretaker.

When Sara befriends Lewis, the toons don't like him at first and they do interrogate him. When Lewis shows he doesn't wanna harm Sara (and he's gay) they leave him alone and like him. Sara does tell Lewis, and later Oliver, his siblings, Eric, Carly, Norman, and Wiatt about the toons and how they were brought to life. Though Wiatt finds out on his own and Sara just comes clean.

Speaking of, Oliver, Ben, Liz, Carly, Eric, and Norman have their own reactions to the toons being alive. However, they are all take it well.

Time skip to Dreamworld being built, and Delilah joins Sara, her friends, Eric, and Norman (who is alive in this AU). Delilah tells Sara how to use Ichor to bring the toons to life. They use Starlight first and its a success. Sara does the same to the others and Delilah is proud of her daughter.

That's all I'm gonna share for now. If anyone is interested in more let me know!

EDIT: Changed the AU name because Dreamgardens didn't run with me.

Nothing Bad Happens Chap. 11-Millie and the Defunction Crew

Here is the next chapter for all of you! This time were bringing in the defunct animatronics!

This chapter was supposed to be chapter 12, however I got too excited for this one and the original chapter 11 (which was bringing in more Dreamworld characters) wasn’t ready yet. I got the plot on who I’m bringing in and what’s going to happen, but my brain isn’t letting me bring the story to life. I hope that makes sense!

Also from the title yes I’m bringing in the defunct animatronics, and YOUR GONNA LOVE what I have planned for one of them because this idea has been rent free in my mind for MONTHS!! I really hope you do like it!

Big thanks to @gigilefache for being my beta reader.

Enjoy!

It was a long day at Dreamworld as a field trip, a couple of birthday parties, and an after-school club had all been holding events simultaneously. Everyone worked their hardest, attending to kids and making sure everyone had a safe and fun time. Once the last party ended and the guests went home, the Dreamworld employees stayed behind to clean up and restock items.

Wiatt and Audrey had been in the storage room putting away the decorations for the party that took place over at Trampoland. “Man, today was exhausting!” Wiatt exclaimed, stretching.

“You can say that again,” Audrey replied. “My uniform is still damp from the water gun fight.”

Wiatt chuckled as he put one of the boxes back on the shelf. The two employees heard a thud and turned around seeing some boxes shuffling in the corner. Wiatt and Audrey looked at each other and smirked, thinking it was one of the animatronics playing a prank on them. 

“Alright, Melody,” Wiatt started as he and Audrey started to walk towards the boxes. “If that’s you trying to scare us then just come out and do it. It’s not going to work.”

The shuffling continued and Wiatt shushed his co-worker as he went in to surprise the changeling animatronic. He grabbed one of the boxes and removed them, but was surprised not to see the purple triplet, but a goat animatronic.

The animatronic was brown with small horns, green eyes with black sclera, and a mint green bowtie on her neck. She looked skittish seeing the two employees and ran off, tackling Wiatt in the process.

“Was that a goat?” Wiatt asked, looking up to where the animatronic ran off.

“Looked like it.” Audrey replied.

Wiatt looked at his co-worker. “Do you know who that is?”

Audrey shook her head, but she did have a clue on the mystery animatronic’s identity. “I do know the founders had to scrap four animatronics due to some technical errors that Lewis or Oliver couldn’t fix.”

Wiatt wondered if Sara had something to do with it. As if it were Lewis or Oliver’s mistake, they would be able to fix it in a flash. Wiatt decided not to worry about it now. The two continued putting the boxes back on the shelf.

After they were done storing everything away, Audrey got ready to head out for the night. “Are you busy tonight?” She asked Wiatt, putting her black jacket over her uniform. “Hayden, Pen, Andrew, and I are going to a karaoke bar, want to join?”

“I wish I could.” Wiatt replied. “However, Lewis wants me to stay behind and do a quick maintenance check on the animatronics. After today’s events, he wants to make sure they're good to go for tomorrow.”

Audrey sighed, “well I hope you have fun with us in spirit!” She beamed. “Maybe next week?”

Wiatt nodded, “sure.”

Audrey smiled and waved goodbye to her co-worker before leaving the building and getting into the front seat of Hayden’s car before the party drove off. 

Wiatt waved back before he heard Starlight groan. He turned around and saw the star animatronic looking tired.

“Today was one of the craziest days I ever delt with, darling.” Starlight complained.

“I know.” Wiatt sighed, it wasn’t his first time working a busy shift, but seeing the animatronics having limits surprised him.

“I had three kids put stickers on my back and my support beam!” Starlight yelled, showing all the stickers that were on him. Wiatt chuckled, making the animatronic glare. “It’s not funny!”

“It is! The sticker that says, “I sparkle!” suits you!” Wiatt laughed. Starlight, glared and growled at the mechanic. Wiatt calmed down his laughter and went over to the animatronic. “Alright, alright, I’ll get the stickers off you, but could we keep…” Starlight glared as his eyes turned red and purple warning the mechanic not wanting to keep a single sticker on him. “Noted.”

Wiatt started to peel the stickers off the animatronic, starting with the support beam. Luckily, they were easy to peel off, not leaving a single speck of sticker residue. While removing the stickers, Wiatt had to ask the star animatronic a question.

“Star.” Wiatt started.

“What is it, darling?” Starlight asked.

“Do you know anything about a goat animatronic?”

Starlight’s eyes widened, he never heard of another animatronic other than the ones present. “No, sorry.” He answered.

Wiatt sighed, “it’s alright. I just figured since  Lewis tells you everything.”

“Oh he did,” Starlight replied. He narrowed his eyes and gave a smirk, “especially about you, darling.” Starlight booped Wiatt’s nose making him chuckle.

“Okay, what did he tell you then?” Wiatt asked.

Starlight froze as he tried to think on how to explain it to the mechanic. “Well…he said you were an amazing boyfriend, and that he misses you.” He explained.

Wiatt rolled his eyes knowing Lewis missed him too, and yes, he was amazing. “What else?”

“He talked about his friends, my backstory….” Starlight trailed off, trying to think of what to tell the mechanic.

“What about the scrapped animatronics?”

“Sadly no.” Starlight replied. “Why are you so interested in scrapped animatronics?”

Wiatt told Starlight about the goat animatronic he and Audrey ran into, and how his co-worker brought up the defunct animatronics. Starlight’s eyes widened in surprise as to him this was the first time hearing about this.

“Well, that’s the first I heard about this, darling.” Starlight replied. “Lewis never told me about the defunct animatronics. Although he mentioned one of them was to be used for the Arcadescape.”

Wiatt frowned, “so Lewis kept a lot from you, huh?”

“He did.” Starlight replied.

Wiatt wondered what kind of secrets Lewis kept from Starlight, the other animatronics, and even some of the employees. Lewis usually never kept secrets from anyone, he was always open and shared everything.

“That doesn’t sound like the Lewis I remembered. He was always open to talk about everything.” Wiatt said as he was removing the rest of the stickers.

“Well you could talk to him or Sara about it.” Starlight suggested.

“Why Sara?” Wiatt asked.

“Well when I was brought to life, Sara and Lewis had a few private conversations.”

Wiatt’s eyes widened and he glared. “They what?” He yelled, ripping a sticker from Starlight.

“OW! WATCH IT!” Starlight yelled.

“You mean to tell me Lewis and Sara are keeping secrets from us?”

Starlight’s scarlet mask went on his face. “Not a lot of secrets, Lewis told me some of them like how Sara used some of his soul to bring me to life,” he explained. “Though the motives are…” he paused as images of that day played in his head. “Blurry to say the least.”

Wiatt got up and started to make his way to the offices of the founders. “I’m going to have a long chat with my boyfriend and that bitch.” He growled.

Starlight felt guilty that he shared a bit too much information with Wiatt. He let out a sigh, “sorry, darling.” He whispered.

Wiatt went through the hallway hoping he’d talk with Lewis and get his side of the story. He stopped to see Sara’s office door was open and the goat animatronic from earlier was running out, looking scared.

“Huh?” Wiatt questioned.

The goat animatronic looked up at Wiatt and hid behind him.

“W-What’s going on little one?” Wiatt asked.

“Wiatt.”

Wiatt looked up to see Sara, looking surprised. However, he sensed something was different about the female founder. “I-I thought you’d be home by now.”

“N-No, you told me to stay behind and check on the animatronics before I left.” Wiatt replied.

“Sara” walked closer to him, and Wiatt stepped back along with the goat animatronic who was scared of the female founder.

“It seems like I forgot!” “Sara” exclaimed, letting out a chuckle. “Well, you could go home now,” she paused as she looked over at the small goat, “and let me take care of the trespasser.”

The goat squeaked and shivered, stepping back, ready to run again. Wiatt looked down at the goat and saw she was horrified being left alone with the female founder.

“Before I go. I need to ask, who is this animatronic?” Wiatt asked.

“Who cares!” “Sara” spat, “It's a trespasser!”

Wiatt glared, “How is she a trespasser, Sara? or should I say, Litho?”

Sara, or rather, Litho’s eyes widened as she let out a chuckle. “So you saw right through me.” He said as his voice changed to his natural one.

“I’m not stupid. I don’t trust Sara, but I know her well enough.” Wiatt explained. “Also it was Lewis who told me to stay behind not Sara.”

“Trying to be one step ahead of me, huh Nicholson?” Litho asked.

“Sara told me about you, why do you keep messing with her?” Wiatt asked.

Litho smirked, “why are you so concerned for her? I thought you hated me?” Litho said, mimicking Sara’s voice in order to get to Wiatt.

“I never trusted Sara, but that doesn’t mean I won’t have someone ruin her life.” Wiatt replied.

Litho chuckled, “aww that’s sweet. You care for her.” He mocked.

“Ugh…I don’t,” Wiatt replied disgusted, “but I know Lewis and Oliver do.”

“Well, it would be a shame if something happened to them thanks to their friend.” Litho said, smirking.

Wiatt growled hearing Litho would harm Lewis and Oliver and put the blame on Sara.

“But,” Litho spoke, getting closer to Wiatt, causing him and the goat animatronic to step back, “before I can get to them, I should get to you and the little goat first.”

The goat animatronic squeaked, shivering and bracing herself as Wiatt went in to protect her.

Litho stopped and grunted as he held his head. “N-No!” Sara spoke out.

Wiatt looked at Sara and saw she was fighting, trying to remove Litho from control.

“I’m not…letting you…hurt them!” Sara struggled.

“Sara…” Waitt whispered.

Sara looked up at the mechanic, “Wiatt, take Millie and run!” She yelled.

“Millie?” Wiatt turned to the smaller goat animatronic and saw her run off in fear.

“Don’t just stand there!” Sara yelled. “Protect her!”

Sara yelled out in pain as Litho took control once more, “stay out of this you pest!” He growled.

“No!” Sara yelled, taking control again. “I’m not letting you hurt her! Wiatt run!”

Wiatt listened and ran after Millie to protect her as Sara struggled with Litho for control of her body.

Millie ran as fast as her legs could take her, she turned and saw Wiatt following behind, then running faster to get away from him.

“W-Wait! Millie!” Wiatt yelled, trying to catch up to the goat animatronic. “I won’t hurt you!”

Millie turned a corner and ran into an open room, hiding behind some boxes. Wiatt came in and looked around.

The goat animatronic stayed still as possible as she watched Wiatt look for her. She slowly stepped back, only to hit a box in the process making her jump and topple all boxes to the ground.

Wiatt saw the boxes fall with Millie in the middle of the mess. Scared at what she did, Millie dashed out of the wreckage and tried to escape through a door, but due to her small size she couldn’t reach the door knob, and having hooves it made it difficult to jump for it. She saw Wiatt’s shadow and realized she was cornered.

“It’s okay.” Wiatt reassured the goat animatronic. “I’m not going to hurt you. I promise.”

Millie started to hyperventilate trying to find a way to escape.

Seeing how scared she was, Wiatt stopped and kneeled down to Millie’s level. “Millie, it’s okay. I just want to protect you.” He said.

Millie looked up at the mechanic who held his hand out. She looked at it and into the eyes of Wiatt.

“It’s alright. I’m here.”

The goat animatronic slowly walked over to Wiatt, which made him smile a bit. Millie got closer to him and sniffed his hand. Seeing he wasn’t harmful, she allowed Wiatt to pet her. He smiled more seeing Millie trusted him, eventually allowing him to to carry her.

“Okay, now let’s find a safe place to hide.” Wiatt said.

Millie nodded in reply. This surprised Wiatt as most of the animatronics spoke, but not Millie. He wondered whose soul was in her, why Litho wanted Millie so much, and how come she wasn’t talking?

These thoughts distracted Wiatt from the three figures sneaking up behind him. He heard a mechanical sound and sighed. “Alright, Starlight, Ribbondancer, or whoever is behind me right now, I just had a crazy fucking night. I don’t need you sneaking…” Wiatt paused, seeing three unknown animatronics behind him.

One was a moon shaped animatronic and wore an outfit similar to Starlight, the other was a red moth animatronic, and the last one was another goat animatronic, though he was bigger than Millie.

“O-Oh hello.” Wiatt said.

“Why hello there!” The moth animatronic exclaimed. “I’m the wonderful, magnificent Lorenzo, and these are my compadres; Nightlight and Gruff.” Lorenzo put a hand on his chest while he pointed at his other two friends.

Nightlight gave a wave and nervous smile, while Gruff gave a humph glaring at Wiatt.

“What brings you down here?” Lorenzo asked.

“O-Oh I was just protecting Millie.” Wiatt answered.

“Ah. I guess you know her.” Lorenzo said, glaring.

“W-Who? Millie?” Wiatt asked.

“No. No. No! Millie is her favorite.”

Wiatt realized what the moth animatronic meant by, her. “You mean Sara?”

Lorenzo smiled. “Ding! Ding! Ding congratulations you win a prize!” He exclaimed, pumping his hands up like he was ringing a bell.

Wiatt was confused, and looked at Millie. “Uh…I never thought Sara would have another favorite.”

Millie smiled sheepishly in reply, which made Wiatt smile.

“I’m surprised too, I mean she did pick the most boring people to be her friends.” Lorenzo replied, rolling his eyes.

Millie and Wiatt’s eyes widened, as Millie glared at the moth animatronic. It took Wiatt a second before he glared at Lorenzo as well. “What did you say?” Wiatt asked.

Lorenzo chuckled, “oh come now, you said it yourself…Sara…sweet boring Sara, making friends. Yet, she made friends with a wimp, and a kill joy!”

“Hey, my boyfriend is not a killjoy!” Wiatt yelled.

“Ah, so you're the second star to the right, Lorenzo brought up.” Nightlight said.

Wiatt opened his mouth to say something, but realized that Lorenzo had a good nickname for him. Long, but a good one. “I can’t hate you for that one.”

Lorenzo chuckled as he leaned over to Gruff, “told ya.”

“Idiot.” Gruff grumbled.

Nightlight chuckled as Lorenzo glared at his friends.

“So, how do you know Sara?” Wiatt asked.

The three animatronics looked at one another. “Wait, you didn’t know what she did to us?” Nightlight asked.

“N-No.” Wiatt replied, shocked. He then glared, “what did she do?” Millie shivered, sensing Wiatt’s anger.

Nightlight looked over at Lorenzo and Gruff, “who wants to tell him?” She asked.

“Don’t look at me, you're the one who loves to call her names!” Lorenzo exclaimed.

“Uh, you're the one who led us to bully her!” Nightlight exclaimed.

“Only because it was fun!”

It then clicked with Wiatt, he remembered Lewis telling him that Sara was bullied and that her bullies went missing one day.

Before he could answer, the group heard footsteps coming towards them.

“Wiatt!”

Wiatt’s eyes widened as he, Millie, and the defunct animatronics turned around to see Sara. 

She was breathing heavily due to the struggle she had with Litho. Due to it, her hair tie was loose with strands of hair sticking out. Sara saw Millie unharmed and smiled before walking over to her.

Cautious, Wiatt glared, put Millie down, and grabbed a crowbar on the side and pointed it at Sara’s neck. “Nice try, Litho! I know you're just pretending to be Sara just to get Millie.” He growled.

Millie’s eyes widened as she stepped closer towards Wiatt and Sara.

“Wiatt, it’s me!” Sara exclaimed, trying to prove it was her and not Litho.

“I’m not an idiot! I won’t fall for your tricks.” Wiatt replied, he held the crowbar tight ready to hit Sara. He then felt a tug on the hem of his pants, and looked down to see Millie biting it to stop him. “Huh, Millie?” The goat animatronic let go and went over to Sara.

Millie sniffed Sara and smiled before leaping into the founder’s arms, nuzzling her. Sara chuckled and held Millie tight. “I’m so glad you're okay.” Sara said.

Wiatt loosened his grip on the crowbar and dropped it realizing it was Sara. “I-It is you.” He said. 

Sara nodded in reply.

The mechanic then glanced at Millie, “you know when Sara is Sara, don't you?” He asked.

The goat animatronic nodded.

Wiatt sighed, glad he didn’t attack the wrong person. However, that was the least of his worries. “Sara,” Wiatt spoke, causing her and Millie to look up at him. “I have so many questions right now.”

Sara went quiet and looked over at the three defunct animatronics. Lorenzo glared at her, while Nightlight and Gruff stared at her with worry in their eyes.

“Uh…you can tell me later,” Sara said, grabbing Wiatt’s hand. “Come on, let's go.”

Wiatt swatted his hand away from Sara’s grasp, “no!” He shouted. “I’m sick and tired of you lying and brushing serious questions off! You’ve always done this even back in high school!”

Sara stepped back, and glared. “I’m not trying to brush it off!” She yelled back. “I told you, we can talk about it later!”

“No, tell me now! You want me to help you? Then you better be honest with me!” Wiatt exclaimed. He then glared, narrowing his eyes, “otherwise I’ll go to Lewis.”

Sara’s eyes widened, the anxious feeling in her stomach churned in her. She was cornered, she thought her past would never be brought up ever again. Sara felt something touch her arm and  looked down to see Millie putting her nose on her arm to relax her.

Sara took a deep breath and exhaled, “out of everyone I’d tell the truth about my past, it be you.”

Wiatt also took a deep breath and exhaled as well, calming down. “Sara, just tell me what’s going on.”

“If I do, just don’t tell anyone.” Sara begged. 

Wiatt glared and crossed his arms, “it depends on what it is.”

“I’ll explain every detail.”

Wiatt loosened his arms and nodded.

Sara then went to one of the crates and sat down, putting Millie on her lap. Wiatt sat down on the crate across from her, and the three other animatronics walked over, with Lorenzo sitting on another crate.

“So, start from the beginning.” Wiatt said.

Lorenzo was about to speak until Nightlight elbowed him to prevent Lorenzo from talking. He gave a sheepish smile, making Gruff and Nightlight roll their eyes.

“Well, Lewis told you how I was bullied before I met him, and Oliver right?” Sara asked.

Wiatt nodded, “Lewis told me all the time. He hoped that would be an excuse to trust you, but he was wrong.” He answered.

“I like him.” Lorenzo whispered.

“Shut up you idiot!” Nightlight whispered smacking the moth animatronic over the head. Lorenzo rubbed the back of his head glaring at his friend.

“You know we can hear you, right?” Sara asked.

“Sorry,” Nightlight replied. “Continue.”

Sara rolled her eyes, “anyways,” she continued as she pet Millie. “My bullies never went missing, I lied. They were dead.” Sara took a deep breath and let it out slowly in hopes to hold back her tears.

Millie frowned as she cuddled closer to Sara to comfort her. It made her feel better, but not by a lot.

The three defunct animatronics frowned, bowing their heads down in shame.

“I figured something happened to them.” Wiatt replied. “You get nervous when someone brings it up, or when other kids asked you if they were killed.”

“And they weren’t wrong.” Sara answered. “I did kill them.”

“W-What?!” Wiatt asked, looking horrified.

Sara knew Wiatt was going to react like that. “I-I killed them.” She repeated, in a shaky voice, “N-Now before you get upset, please let me explain.”

“You mean to tell me my boyfriend has been best friends with a murderer?” Wiatt yelled.

Tears started to come out of Sara’s eyes. 

“I knew you gave me a bad vibe, and now I know why. You're a killer Sara Coverman!” Wiatt yelled.

Sara gasped as the tears fell from her eyes. She wiped them away, but they continued to fall.

Millie growled at Wiatt and got up and tackled the mechanic to the floor. She continued to growl as her horns got sharper.

“Millie! Stop!” Gruff yelled.

The small goat animatronic stopped what she was doing. She turned to the bigger goat, who then glanced at Wiatt.

“Wiatt, before you continue to yell at her, please let Sara continue.”

Wiatt was confused, until he saw Sara crying. His eyes widened as he slowly got up. Wiatt never saw Sara cry before, and yet, he felt bad for making her cry. He looked over at Millie who frowned as her horns went back to normal, seeing the female founder cry.

The smaller goat got off of Wiatt and went over to Sara and comforted her by nuzzling on her leg. The female founder stopped crying as she looked down at Millie trying to cheer her up. Millie looked up and jumped into Sara’s arms giving her a kiss on the cheek. Sara sniffled and wiped the remaining tears from her face.

“Thanks Millie.” Sara whispered, pulling the smaller goat closer to her and hugged her tight.

Wiatt got up and brushed himself off as he sat back down on the crate. He gave her a moment to calm down before they continued their conversation.

Once she was calm, Sara continued her story, holding Millie. “Yes, I did kill them, but you weren’t there that day. They were pushing me, calling me names, and when one of them brought out matches and…” Sara sniffled, tears coming back from her eyes. “I got scared! I don’t know why, but I pushed one off the cliff!” Sara started sobbing.

Wiatt was shocked, while the three defunct animatronics felt guilty.

Sara wiped the tears from her eyes as she continued, “I-I ended up pushing the other two, but one tried to do the same to me, so I pushed them. The other kid begged for mercy, but,” Sara paused as her eyes turned dull, “I was bullied by these kids for two years. I didn’t want to take chances. I was so scared. I just wanted it to stop.”

Wiatt too understood Sara’s dealing with bullies. He didn’t kill his bullies like Sara did, but what Sara went through made her what she was in the present.

Sara sniffled as she wiped the remaining tears from her eyes, as they turned back to normal. “After that I lost trust in people, and I told the story that my bullies went missing for years, until they found their bodies.” She explained. “If it wasn’t for Celio, Lewis, Oliver…”

Sara paused when Millie put her hooves on her hands.

“And Millie.” Sara finished. “I’d be a different person, maybe worse than how you see me.”

Wiatt sighed knowing it was his turn to talk. “I get it now. Lewis told me I should give you a chance.” He replied. 

Sara nodded. “I became mean to you because I didn’t trust you. Sure, you're Lewis’s boyfriend, but what if you break up with him or hurt him?”

Wiatt sighed, “I would never hurt Lewis, but I understand where you're coming from.” Now he had another question. “However, I need to know who Litho is, who Millie and the defunct animatronics are, everything!”

“I’ll get there, don’t worry.” Sara replied.

“After we got to work on building Dreamworld, that’s when Litho and Winnie came to me. Litho knew about my past and if I didn’t do what he said, he’d tell Oliver and Lewis.” Sara explained.

“So you agreed to this because of it?” Wiatt asked.

Sara nodded. “I agreed to it because I got scared if Lewis, Oliver, or anyone found out, I knew I'd lose them.” She sighed. She petted Millie, who looked up at her in concern, “so one of my first experiments was to transfer souls into animatronics and to add salt in the wound…Litho gave me the souls of my three bullies, and well…” Sara then pointed at the defunct animatronics.

Wiatt turned to the defunct animatronics in shock. Lorenzo and Nightlight gave a sheepish smile and wave. Due to Gruff not having hands he can give a nod. Wiatt waved back, he stopped and turned to Sara in shock.

“Wait, you said three bullies, correct?” Wiatt asked.

“Yeah.” Sara replied.

“Then, whose soul is in Millie?”

Sara didn’t respond; she looked down at the small goat before looking Wiatt straight in the eyes.

Wiatt was confused until he looked at Millie and back at Sara. It finally hit him. “Part of your soul is in Millie?”

Sara nodded silently.

“B-But h-how?” Wiatt asked, stuttering a bit.

Sara brought Millie close to her. “To keep it short, I got overwhelmed with being part of Litho’s plot, building Dreamworld, and anxious of my secret coming out. I just…had enough.” She explained.

Wiatt frowned and got up to sit next to Sara, putting his arm around the female founder. 

“Eric found me and took me to the hospital. When I was released, that’s when I started experimenting with souls. It’s not like I had a choice.” Sara continued.

Wiatt removed his arm around Sara, as she continued her story.

“So, when I was experimenting with souls and the animatronics, that’s when Millie came to me,” Sara paused to look down at the goat with a small smile, “I thought I made a mistake, but after a while every time I touched Millie, I felt a connection. That’s when I realized a part of my soul went into Millie.”

Millie gave a smile as she nuzzled into her chest.

Wiatt smiled seeing the animatronic bond with Sara. “Is that when you discovered a small part of someone’s soul could go into an animatronic and bring it to life?” He asked.

Sara nodded. “Yep, I told Lewis about it, and after a while he wanted to test it out for himself.” She explained. Wiatt was about to speak, but Sara quickly cut him off. “Now, I didn’t force him. He wanted to do this on his own, and I was scared because what if it went wrong and I ended up killing him.”

Wiatt was shocked, he knew since he arrived Lewis had secrets about Starlight. All this time he thought Sara put him against his will, but he still wanted to hear Lewis’s side of the story. If they match then he would go easy on Sara.

“What about Oliver? Does he know?” Wiatt asked.

Sara shook her head. “I haven’t told him. I plan too, but I just couldn’t.”

Wiatt understood why. Oliver was sensitive and would freak out hearing all this. “So if part of Lewis’s soul is in Starlight, who are the other souls in the animatronics?” Wiatt asked.

“Other employees at Dreamworld. Except the triplets, LolliPop and Cheer. However, I didn’t experiment on them.” Sara explained. “Winnie did.”

“Winnie? Is he the Pegasus animatronic I saw in your office when I arrived?” Wiatt asked.

Sara and Millie turned to Wiatt, the female founder nodded. “Yeah, he…tried to kill them, but I was able to save them and use part of their souls. They don’t remember the incidents and I’m glad, but…” Sara paused.

“But what?”

“That’s when Litho possessed me. However, my soul didn’t just get trapped into an animatronic or wherever Litho sends souls. I was still in my body, watching everything Litho does.” Sara paused, to catch her breath and let Wiatt take everything in. “Litho was confused too, until he realized part of my soul was in Millie.”

“Is that why Litho wants Millie?” Wiatt asked.

Millie shivered burring her face into Sara’s chest. Sara nodded as she rubbed Millie’s back. “When Millie found out, she stayed hidden. Then the facility opened and I guessed she was overwhelmed by the amount of employees here.”

Millie looked up and nodded to confirm with the female founder.

“And that’s everything you need to know Wiatt.” Sara said, “I know it’s a lot, but at least now you know the truth.”

Wiatt was still wrapping his head around the whole story. Yes, it was a lot, but Sara covered everything he needed to know. Wiatt nodded as he got up, “what can I do to help?” He asked.

Sara’s eyes widened as she got up, “what do you mean?” She asked.

“After what you told me, I trust you just enough to help you.” Wiatt explained. 

Sara’s eyes widened in surprise. After years of Wiatt not trusting her, he’s asking to help her?

“I know we don’t get along, but you told me everything.” Wiatt then smiled, “and that’s good enough for me to help you.”

Sara smiled glad she had someone to help her. “Thank you, Wiatt.” She said.

“Anytime.” Wiatt said.

“Oh great.” Lorenzo spoke up, with a groan. “Sara got herself another looser on her friend squad. Yippie!” He spinned his fingers looking like he was celebrating.

“Lorenzo, quit it!” Nightlight shouted. “He’s trying to help her.”

“Yeah, we listened to the whole story.” Gruff added. “So be supportive for once.”

Sara and Wiatt chuckled at the three bickering. Wiatt stopped and looked at Millie before giving her pet. “You know you're not talkative Millie, but you are sweet.”

Millie smiled in reply.

“She is sweet.” Sara replied. “But your right, she doesn’t talk. Most animatronic talk once part of a soul is put in, but Millie never did.” Millie looked up at Sara, which made her smile. “It doesn’t matter. I like her no matter what.” Sara pulled Millie closer to her.

The goat animatronic smiled and snuggled her back. Sara giggled as Millie continued to nuzzle her. The female founder frowned as she put Millie down who looked at her with worry.

Wiatt looked down at the goat animatronic before looking up at Sara. “She doesn’t live with me.” Sara said. “Litho can possess me at anytime, and it’s risky keeping her with me.”

“I know Oliver doesn’t know anything about what you did to Lewis, but do they know about Millie or Litho possessing you?”

“No.” Sara answered. “If I told them, Litho can kill them.” Sara turned to Millie, “as for Millie…the moment Lewis finds out he’s going to wonder what I did to bring her to life.”

“Makes sense.”

Sara nodded. She then felt Millie nuzzle her leg, which made her smile and kneel down to her level. “Don’t worry Mils, I promise we’ll hang out again soon.”

Millie stopped nuzzling and nodded happily. She then nuzzled Wiatt’s leg too, making him chuckle as she went to the other three defunct animatronics.

“Keep taking care of her, okay.” Sara said.

“We will.” Gruff replied, giving a nod. The four defunct animatronics walked off, heading to a safe part of the facility. Millie turned and smiled at Sara before following her friends behind.

Please check those AUs out because they are SOO good!!

Big thanks to @gigilefache for being my beta reader!

Enjoy!

Everything happened in what felt like a second.

It started with Starlight, also known as Lewis Bright, Wiatt, and their friends fighting Litho in order to stop him from destroying the world. It was a warzone with Moris, Ridley, and Winnie deactivating. Hayden who spent part of the battle trying to kill Wiatt for what happened to Pen and Lisa, got killed by Litho for being in the way. Wiatt and Starlight tried to stop Litho for good only for the demon using his strings on the two and suddenly a flash of light happened.

Once the light faded, Lewis opened his eyes to see he was back to where it all started…

The day he died.

Lewis gasped as he just saw his best friend, and business partner, Sara Covetman, pull a knife from her pocket. “Didn’t you say, you wanted to be a star?” She asked, raising the knife.

Lewis gasped knowing what was about to happen. “Not like that, darling!” He yelled as he shoved Sara to the wall.

The girl hit the wall hard, but still had the knife in hand. Sara saw Lewis ready to run, but she grabbed him by the back collar, pulled it, and threw him on the ground. Sara raised the knife, ready to stab Lewis. He kicked her in the stomach dropping the knife.

Lewis tried to escape again, only for Sara to grab the knife and slash Lewis in the leg. He let out a painful yell, as he looked behind him to see blood oozing from his left leg.

Sara was about to stab his leg again, but Lewis kicked the knife out of her hand, and onto the floor right in the middle of them. The two looked at one another and began a race to grab the knife. 

Lewis struggled due to the pain, but was determined. Sara was inches away from grabbing the knife until Lewis snatched it.

Sara then tried to reclaim the weapon from her friend, and as they pulled the knife back and forth, Lewis accidently sliced Sara in the arm. Shocked, Lewis dropped the knife. Sara held her arm as blood started to trickle down like a tea pour. She looked up at her friend and growled. She tackled him to the ground, grabbed the knife  and was ready to stab him once more.

Lewis’s eyes widened, it was like last time. Sara pinned him in this position and constantly stabbed him until his eyes closed and he woke up in the Starlight animatronic. 

That’s when everything went wrong.

No. Not this time, Lewis thought.

Lewis glared and kicked Sara in the leg. She yelped as Lewis got off of her. The two friends glared at each other as their fight got even more heated. The two punched, kicked, and if they got hold of the knife, slashed each other. They fought like this for a few minutes, and were tired, bruised, and cut up. They were breathing heavily, waiting for the other to make the next move.

“Why, won’t you let me help you, Lewis!” Sara yelled. “I’m doing this for the facility!”

“Help me?” Lewis asked. He let out a laugh. “How is killing me helping me?”

Sara growled. She ran ready to stab Lewis again, but this time he was ready. 

Before she could stab him, Lewis grabbed her arm. “Why are you doing this, Sara?” Lewis yelled, pushing his best friend into the wall, the knife slipping from her hands. Sara groaned, holding her shoulder as she glared at her best friend. “I thought we were best friends! I trusted you, darling!”

Sara saw the knife on the ground and went to pick it up and attack Lewis again. The later grabbed her wrist and squeezed it tight, causing Sara to drop the knife once again. “Gah!” Sara screamed. She slowly looked up to see Lewis glaring at her.

“I’m going to ask one last time,” Lewis started as he squeezed Sara’s wrist tighter. “Why are you doing this?”

“Y-You wouldn’t understand.” Sara replied, weakly.

“How do you know that?” Lewis asked, squeezing Sara’s wrist tighter causing her to whimper. “You told me everything while we were growing up!” Now, Lewis slightly twisted Sara’s wrist causing her to cry in pain.

“L-Let go Lewis! Please, it hurts.” She cried.

“No! Not until you tell me everything!”

Sara breathed heavily as she struggled to remove Lewis’s hand, but he held it tight and wasn’t going to let go. She looked for her knife, only to see it inches away from her. She went to reach it, only for Lewis to take notice and kick the knife far away from the woman. 

Sara felt her hand ready to snap off at any moment after feeling a harsh crack in her wrist. Tears started to appear from her eyes as the pain got the better of her.

“Okay! Okay! I’ll talk, please let go, Lewis! Please!” Sara cried.

Lewis glared. He stopped twisting it, but held it tight. “Alright. Talk.” He said. “Why do you want to discover immortality?”

“I-I made a deal.” Sara answered. “With a demon.”

Lewis nodded. He remembered that from the previous timeline, but he rather hear it from Sara herself.

Sara was about to continue, but she paused and stared at Lewis. He was confused until he heard her let out a sob.

“O-Oh my god…” Sara cried. “Y-You're still alive.”

Lewis’s eyes widened, realizing Sara remembered everything from the previous timeline. “You remember everything now, do you?” He asked.

Sara nodded as she sobbed again. The sobs turned into cries as she used her free arm to hug Lewis. He was surprised too, and soon felt his shoulder start to turn wet due to Sara crying. “I’m so sorry Lewis.” She cried. “I’m sorry.”

Lewis, seeing his friend was no longer a threat, let her arm go and hugged her back. Sara used her other arm to pull Lewis closer as she continued to cry.

“Let it out, darling. Let it out.” Lewis whispered, rubbing her back for comfort. He waited until she was done crying to talk more about her deal with Litho.

It took many minutes, but Sara finally calmed down. She wiped the tears from her eyes and let go of Lewis.

“I’m sorry, Lewis. I’m really, really sorry.” Sara said.

Lewis blinked as he led Sara to a nearby table as the two sat up on top of it. “Darling, why did you do what you did?” He asked.

“I-I…” Sara paused to take a deep breath. “When I was experimenting with souls, Winnie told me I needed a new soul in order for this to work.” She explained.

“So you used me as your experiment, huh?” Lewis asked.

Sara nodded. “I debated on it. You’ve been my best friend for years, and I was hoping to find someone that wasn’t you, but Litho and Winnie were pushing me.” She explained. “I-I guess I snapped when you and Oliver were pressuring me with what I was doing. It’s not an excuse for what I did, but…”

“I get what you're saying.” Lewis interrupted. “But what about Eric, and the others?”

“That wasn’t me! I only killed you.” Sara answered. “A-And a few others, but I’m not ready to share that yet.”

Lewis sighed, knowing this wasn’t Sara’s first rodeo with murder. “I’m guessing Winnie and Litho were the cause of everyone’s deaths?”

Sara nodded. “I found out Winnie killed people behind my back, and gave me credit for it. I tried to back out and fix everything, but then Litho possessed me.” She explained.

“What about Oliver’s TV head?” Lewis asked.

Sara sighed, “I won’t lie. I did set it up, but I chickened out and decided to keep Oliver alive.” She explained.

“I guess Litho finished what you started once he took over your body.” Lewis guessed.

Sara nodded. The two stood in silence taking all things in. “Feel free to hate or leave me.” She said, turning away from her friends.

“I… I don’t hate you Sara.” Lewis spoke.

Sara turned to him, surprised. 

“But I don’t forgive you either.” He continued.

Sara frowned, knowing she couldn’t have her hopes up.

“What you did, darling, was betrayal, but knowing you worked with Litho, you know more than what Wiatt and I found out about him.” Lewis said.

“I do. Even knowing how his portal works and how to shut it down.” Sara replied.

Lewis smiled. “Then help us.” He said. 

“What?” Sara asked, confused.

“Once we get the others together, you can help us with all the knowledge you have.” Lewis explained. “If you can show me that you’ve changed and want to help us, then maybe I’ll forgive you.”

Sara gave a small smile. It was good enough for her. “Alright.” Sara replied.

Lewis smiled back, but it was interrupted when the door swung open.

“Get away from him.”

Sara and Lewis turned to see Oliver coming in holding a knife, glaring at Sara. The two knew Oliver got his memories of the previous timeline and was ready to kill Sara.

“D-Darling.” Lewis said, standing up and slowly walking to his best friend. “Put the knife down, Sara is on our side.”

Oliver chuckled, “bullshit!” He snapped, pointing the knife at Lewis. The latter looked horrified seeing his friend was ready to kill him. “She’s just using you until she kills you.”

“Oliver.” Sara spoke up, walking towards her friend. “I know your angry and hate me for what I did to you and your siblings, but I promise you I wasn’t the one who killed you or them.”

Oliver glared, raised the knife, and scratched Sara’s hand. She let out a scream, holding her hand as blood trickled down. Oliver was ready to hurt her again, until Lewis held his friend back from getting revenge on Sara.

“Darling, stop!” Lewis yelled.

“Lewis, let go!” Oliver growled.

“No! I’m not letting you hurt her!”

Oliver glared. Even though he didn’t want to hurt Lewis, he had to know him into his senses. “You’re making a big mistake letting her live.” Oliver raised the knife with enough strength he had to stab Lewis.

“And your making a mistake trying to kill him!” Sara yelled.

Oliver looked up at Sara, who looked at him with sadness. Oliver lowered his knife as he stared at the woman who ruined his life in the previous timeline. Lewis let go of Oliver as he turned to Sara.

Sara took a deep breath as she looked her friend in the eye. “I’m so sorry for everything.” She started. “I’m sorry for hurting you, and your younger siblings. Even though I wasn’t the one who killed you three, I was the one who made that stupid deal in the first place.”

Oliver’s expression changed after hearing Sara’s apology.

“I’m sorry for bossing you around, and I’m sorry for pushing you and Lewis away.” Sara’s eyes teared up, as she let out a sniffle. “But I’m on your side now, and I’m the only one with information on Litho and everything he does.” Sara wiped her tears away. “I don’t care if you hate me, but you're free to hate me or leave me once we stop him!” Sara then broke down into sobs.

Oliver looked at his knife and back at Sara. He then tossed the knife, causing Sara to look up. “Alright, I’m giving you a chance.”

Sara felt relieved Oliver gave her a chance.

“But, if you hurt me or my siblings. I won’t be forgiving.” Oliver threatened.

Sara nodded. “I understand.”

At that point Oliver calmed down and saw his friends injuries that were from the fight prior to him coming into the room. “I’ll get the first aid kit.” He said. Oliver picked up his knife, and walked out of the room.

Sara and Lewis sat down on the table again waiting on Oliver and the first aid kit. Once the taller founder came back, he opened the kit and started treating his friends' wounds.

Nothing Bad Happens- Winter At Dreamworld

Hello guys!! Here is my cute little winter fanfic for my WTDW NBH AU! I wanted to write a Christmas fanfic after my Halloween one, but November and December were a BUSY time with work, and I went on vacation with my mom (I did write a bit of this fanfic while on vacation). So instead of a Christmas fanfic I decided to write a little Winter fanfic since I didn’t get this out around Christmas.

There is a chance I might write winter style fanfics for NBH AU.

Big thanks to my beta reader @gigilefache

Enjoy!

It was late at night, and the Dreamworld animatronics were asleep, resting before another long day at the facility.

At the entrance to Staract, four figures slowly opened the door. They quietly made their way to where Starlight slept.

The star animatronic had been levitating as he snored. “Psst…Starlight.” A voice said, alerting him. Starlight groaned, and continued to sleep.

“Starlight. Please wake up.” Another voice said.

“Lewis, I need more beauty sleep. You should know that by now.” Starlight replied in his sleep.

Suddenly the tall figure let out a loud gasp as he turned the light on. “STARLIGHT WAKE UP YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS!” 

Starlight screamed in his sleep, trying to get a hold of himself before his support beam snapped off. He looked up to see Ribbondancer and the triplet animatronics; Mimic, Melody and Masquerade at his door with a big smile on their faces.

“Darlings!” Starlight shouted. “It’s early in the morning! What do you four want?!”

“You have to look outside and see this!” Mimic exclaimed.

“There’s stars falling from the sky!” Masquerade added.

“Stars?” Starlight questioned. He got his support beam moving as his friends led him to the nearest window and showed him what they were talking about.

Starlight gasped as he saw white snowflakes fall from the sky and land on the ground. “Well I’ll be…” He whispered. “Stars are falling from the sky.”

“It’s so…magical!” Melody whispered, putting his pinching claws together.

“I can’t wait for Mr. Wiatt, Mr. Lewis, and the other workers to see this!” Mimic exclaimed.

“What’s going on?” A voice groaned. Everyone turned to see Rex, rubbing his eyes as he was woken up by the triplets. “What are you guys doing up?”

“Rex, you've got to take a look at this.” Starlight said, pointing at the window.

The dragon animatronic walked towards the window in awe seeing the “stars” fall. “What is that?” He asked.

“It’s stars. Falling stars.” Mimic replied.

Rex chuckled as he joined his friends in watching the snowfall.

A moment later, LoliPop and Cheer woke up and turned to the group and went over to them. “What’s going on?” Lolli asked, groggy.

“Falling stars.” Melody replied.

LolliPop turned to the window and their eyes widened. “Wow, it looks like sugar falling from the sky!” Lolli exclaimed.

“They do!” Pop exclaimed. 

“To me it looks like pixie dust.” Cheer said. “We should go outside and see it!”

“Tomorrow darlings.” Starlight said. “When the Founders wake up and open the place.”

The animatronics looked at each other and nodded in agreement, continuing to watch the snow together.

“Lewis. Lewis. Wake up.” Sara said as she tried to wake up her best friend.

Lewis groaned and turned away, “no Wiatt, I don’t want to ride a comet with you.” He replied in his sleep.

Sara groaned and looked over at the next bed, where Oliver was sleeping. She then walked over to him and tried to wake him up.

“Oliver.” Sara started, tapping her friend’s shoulder. Oliver groaned and put the blanket over him. Sara rolled her eyes and shook her best friend, “Oliver. Wake up.”

“Sara, go back to sleep. It’s early.” Oliver groaned, peeking from the blanket.

Sara looked at the clock and saw it was 6:15 am. To her, that wasn’t early for what she wanted to show her friends. “Could you at least get up and see this!” She exclaimed.

Oliver didn’t reply and just pulled the blanket closer, trying to get back to sleep.

Sara groaned, and decided it was time for desperate measures. She went between the two beds and pulled Lewis out first, then Oliver. Surprisingly, the two boys were still sleepy and didn’t notice what Sara was doing with them. The female founder then dragged the two to the window and then lifted them up.

Oliver slowly opened his eyes and he quickly woke up seeing the snow outside. He tapped Lewis on the shoulder, but due to not having his glasses on he just saw a white blur like he was staring at paper.

“Huh?” Lewis questioned.

“Oh!” Sara exclaimed as she grabbed Lewis’s glasses from the top of the drawer and handed them to her best friend. “Here you go.”

Lewis put on his glasses and a smile appeared on his face. “So that’s what you wanted to tell us darling!” He exclaimed.

Sara chuckled, “yep! First snow day of the year!” She beamed.

“Which means we won’t be busy at Dreamworld.” Oliver added.

“Good news, we can show the animatronics what snow is!” Lewis replied, telling his best friend the positive aspect of a snow day.

Oliver nodded until something came to mind. “Wait, can the animatronics handle snow?” He asked.

“We did make them waterproof, but we’ll see!” Lewis answered. He left the window and got dressed into his winter clothes.

Lewis wore a teal jacket over his regular work clothes, a blue beanie with stars on them, blue and yellow striped gloves, and a yellow scarf with stars all over them. Oliver wore a dark purple jacket over his work clothes, purple gloves and a green beanie over his head. Sara wore a hot pink jacket over her work clothes, pink earmuffs, a yellow scarf and pink gloves.

“You guys ready?” Sara asked.

“Yep!” Lewis and Oliver exclaimed at the same time. The three left their apartment and went over to Lewis’s car as he drove his friends and himself to the Dreamworld Facility. As they drove, the trio watched the snow fall as their excitement rose with how fun it would be to show the animatronics snow.

The trio made it to the facility and Lewis parked the car before he and his friends got out. As they were getting out of the car, a yell was heard.

“Sara, heads up!”

Sara looked up to see a snowball hurtling towards her, she let out a yell and ducked as the snowball hit Lewis in the face. Sara slowly looked up and saw it was Wiatt who threw the snowball, but the expression on his face was a horrified one.

For his winter wear, Wiatt wore a dark blue jacket over his uniform, his mechanic hat, dark blue gloves, and a blue and purple scarf.

“Oh shit.” Wiatt mumbled. He started to walk over to his boyfriend and brushed the snow off his face. “I’m so sorry Lewis. That was for Sara, not for you.”

Lewis glared, which made Wiatt give a sheepish smile and a chuckle. Another snowball hit the mechanic in the back of the head. Wiatt turned around and saw Sara, with her hands behind her back giving an innocent smile. He glared and was ready to throw another snowball at her, but saw the animatronics staring at them from the window.

“How long have they been staring?” Lewis asked.

“Don’t know.” Wiatt replied.

Lewis unlocked the door as he, and the other three went in. Once inside the animatronics turned to them and went over to the four talking over each other about what they witnessed. 

“Woah. Woah. Woah.” Lewis started. “Slow down, darlings. What’s going on?”

“We just saw falling stars, darling!” Starlight exclaimed.

“Yeah!” Ribbondancer added. “We’ve been up ALL night as we watched the falling stars!”

“Falling stars?” Wiatt asked. He looked outside and he realized what the animatronics meant. “Oh, you're talking about the snow.”

The animatronics blinked in confusion. They looked at one another before looking back at Wiatt. “Snow?” They asked at the same time.

Wiatt nodded in reply.

Lewis, who was taking off his jacket and gloves, went on to explain what snow is. “It’s frozen rain darlings. In the winter when it’s cold enough the rain freezes and you get snow.”

“The best part of snow, is you can play in it!” Sara added, as she removed her earmuffs and jacket.

“You can!” Ribbondancer and Melody exclaimed.

Sara nodded in reply as she took off her gloves.

Ribbondancer and Melody looked at each other with a big smile on their face and ran outside to check out the snow. However, the two froze in their tracks as they realized how cold it was outside. The two animatronic shivered as they walked back in, partially covered in snow.

“T-That’s c-cold.” Melody shivered.

“V-Very cold. Colder than an ice cream sundae.” Ribbondancer replied, shivering.

Wiatt chuckled, and leaned over to his boyfriend. “I guess animatronics can’t handle the cold.”

“No they can’t darling.” Lewis replied, chuckling as well.

The door opened again, revealing to be Eric, who was bundled up in a dark green jacket, beanie, and gloves as well as a green and black stripped scarf. “Morning guys.” Eric said, shivering.

“Morning Eric.” Oliver replied.

Eric removed his scarf and went over to the lemur animatronic and put it on him. “Ribbondancer, what are you thinking?” He asked.

“Uh…snow at the moment.” Ribbondancer replied.

“Okay, but you went out without any protection! No jacket, no boots, scarf, anything! Being out in the snow without those is dangerous!” Eric exclaimed.

“Dad. Relax.” Carly said, as she waddled in.

The 13-year old girl wore a pink jacket, a pink and yellow striped scarf wrapped around her neck covering her mouth, pink gloves, and a pink hat. However, from the looks of it Eric bundled his daughter up nice and good for the winter.

“It's Ribbons' first time experiencing snow.” Carly said. She removed the scarf, as she continued to explain. “He doesn’t know the dangers of hypothermia, plus I think animatronics don’t have to worry about that.” Ribbondancer tilted his head in confusion.

Eric sighed, “Still, Ribbondancer should wear something warm if he’s going outside.” He reminded his daughter.

“True, but he should be fine. All that energy he has should warm him up.” Carly replied.

Eric smiled, as he removed his jacket and hat. He put the hat on top of Ribbondancer’s head. The lemur animatronic stuck his tongue out almost like a blep. “By the way.” Ribbondancer began, “where are the triplets and Oliver’s siblings?”

“They stayed at home to play in the snow.” Carly replied. “Dad will pick them up and bring them to the facility later.”

“Oh. I hope they're having fun!” The lemur animatronic exclaimed.

“I just hope Ben is wearing his jacket.” Oliver hoped. “Last snow day, he didn’t and was sick for an entire week.”

“He is wearing one. Don’t worry.” Carly reassured the taller founder, patting him in the back.

Lewis did some thinking and got an idea. “You know, it won’t be busy today. Why don’t we let the animatronics experience snow while they can?” He suggested.

The animatronics turned to the founder. “D-Darling, are you sure?” Starlight asked.

“Yeah Lewis, are you sure?” Eric echoed.

Lewis nodded, “yeah, I got some winter clothes in the Staract that could fit the animatronics!”

“Wait!” Mimic started.

“You mean…” Melody added.

“We can play in the snow!” Masquerade finished.

The founders nodded in reply. The triplet animatronics smiled and started to roll around the facility as they tackled and hugged each of the founders. “Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” They repeated in unison, as they hugged the founders so tight they couldn’t breathe.

“No…problem.” The founders choked out.

“Alright you three, let them go.” Rex said, clapping his claws. “You don’t want them to suffocate and they won’t be able to take you out for your first snow day.”

“Oops.” Melody said as he let go of Sara. “Sorry, Miss. Sara.”

Sara took a deep breath as she was able to breathe again. “You're good Mel. You're good.”

The other two let go of the other two founders as they tried to catch their breaths. Once they were able to breathe, Lewis spoke up. “Alright, I’ll grab the winter wear, Wiatt,  get Starlight set up in his walking mode, and we’ll get this bloody fun snow day started!” He exclaimed.

“Yeah!” The animations cheered.

“We get to cause war and bloodshed in the snow!” Melody yelled, giving a maniac laughter. Everyone turned to him in horror. Melody stopped laughing seeing everyone stare at him. “W-What?”

“Darling, when I say bloody it’s just an expression.” Lewis explained.

“O-Oh. I didn’t know that.” Melody replied, feeling embarrassed.

“It’s alright, darling.” Lewis patted the purple changing animatronic on the head, which made him feel better. “Now, let’s get you guys ready.” Lewis then went upstairs to Staract and went to the dressing room to grab a box filled with winter wear. He went back down to the lobby and he and his friends put the winter clothes on the animatronics.

Eric helped bundle the triplet animations and Ribbondancer so that they’d be nice and warm. Carly helped Cheer and LoliPop put on their scarves and jacket, keeping it light unlike what her dad was doing.

“Ladybug, should LoliPop and Cheer put on a hat and mittens?” Eric asked, pulling out two purple mittens and a beanie with flowers on them.

“Dad, relax. They’ll be fine.” Carly reminded her dad.

“Yeah, I don’t need any extra layers.” Cheer replied. “Plus, how can I wear a hat?”

Eric looked at the hat and back at Cheer, and realized she had petals that prevent any kind of headwear except her goggles. “Hang on! I got an idea!” He exclaimed as he left to go find more hats to cover Cheer’s petals.

“Quick, run.” Carly whispered.

“On it!” Cheer replied as she dashed off to the door, where Wiatt and Starlight were.

Starlight wore a yellow jacket, a teal scarf, and two different mittens. An orange one over his blue hand, and a teal one over his yellow one.

“Are you ready, Starlight?” Wiatt asked.

Starlight nodded, “I’m ready.”

“Same here!” Cheer interrupted.

Wiatt chuckled and opened the door. He and the two animatronics closed their eyes as the cold air blew inside. They slowly opened their lids, seeing snow coming down at a faster rate. 

“Perfect timing, snow is coming down good!” Wiatt commented.

Starlight was the first one to step outside, and flinched at the snow touching his feet. He lifted his right leg up and shivered. “That’s cold.”

Wiatt giggled, “it is cold.” He replied. “But your animatronic feet should get used to it.”

Starlight looked down at the snow again and slowly put his feet on it. He was surprised that it didn’t feel as cold anymore. He took a few more steps and was able to enjoy the snow up close. “Wow.” He whispered. “It feels magical.”

“That’s how snow is, darling.” Lewis said. He took his boyfriend’s hand, causing Wiatt to blush. Lewis gave a flirtatious smirk, “now let’s make it more magical, Wiatt, my love.” He then dragged Wiatt and started to dance with him.

“L-Lewis!” Wiatt yelled, as his boyfriend spined him around, before dipping him. Wiatt pouted, but Lewis landed a kiss on his nose. Wiatt gasped as his face turned a bright red and he gave a small glare as he smashed his lips onto Lewis’s, causing the two to fall to the ground. The two laughed seeing how cute and ridiculous they were acting. They looked into each other’s eyes and smiled before kissing each other again.

Starlight smiled seeing how romantic his soul brother and his brother's partner were being. Everyime he felt Lewis being happy, he too felt happy.

“Enjoying it?” Sara asked, snapping the star animatronic out of his thoughts.

“Y-Yeah.” Starlight replied. He was then interrupted by the other animatronics running outside to check out the snow up close. The animatronics laughed as they looked at the snow up close, feeling the same way Starlight felt.

“So, what fun things can we do in the snow?” Pop asked.

“A lot of things.” Sara answered.

“Like what?” Lolli asked.

Sara thought about what would be fun for the animatronics on their first snow day, and smirked when she had an idea. She scooped up some snow into her hands and formed it into a ball and threw it at Wiatt’s face.

“Ah!” Wiatt shouted, as the snowball hit him. He and Lewis looked up and saw Sara chuckle.

“That’s for this morning, Nicholson!” Sara yelled, before continuing to laugh. She was then cut off by a snowball, hitting her in the face.

“And that’s what you deserve, Covetman!” Wiatt yelled back, as he laughed. A snowball hit him in the back of the head. Wiatt turned around to see it was Lewis who threw the snowball at him. “L-Lewis, how could you?!”

“Sorry, darling, but that was for throwing it at me.” Lewis replied.

Wiatt pouted, “but it was an accident!” Another snowball then hit Wiatt in the back of the head, and he turned to see it was Oliver who threw it.

“Nice shot, Oliver!” Sara beamed.

Oliver rolled his shoulders, smiling proudly, “it’s all in the wrist,” he replied. Suddenly a snowball hit him in the back of the head, knocking him into the snow face down.

“Oliver!” Sara exclaimed. “Are you-” she was cut off as a snowball hit her in the back of the head as well. Sara looked up and saw Starlight in a throwing position, looking nervous.

“I don’t know what’s going on, but I saw Lewis do it.” Starlight said, pointing at Lewis. This caused the founder to glare at his soul brother, and throw a snowball at Starlight. “Hey! What was that for?”

“It’s a snowball fight, darling.” Lewis replied. “It’s harmless fun.” He then got hit by two snowballs by Sara and Oliver. With a glare, Lewis made another snowball and threw it at Sara. The Founder Trio threw snowballs back and forth at each other.

Wiatt ended up hit by one of the stray snowballs and threw one back at Oliver, causing him to join the snowball fight as well.

Starlight was hit by the trio’s snowballs, which caused his eyes to glow red and purple. He growled, created a snowball and threw it at Lewis, however his throw was so hard it knocked the young man back.

“Oh snap!” Starlight exclaimed, covering his mouth. He was shocked he had a good aim, and was worried he harmed him. “Lewis, are you alright?”

Lewis stuck out his left arm and gave the animatronic and thumbs up, showing him that he was indeed alright.

Starlight sighed in relief. Suddenly he felt a bunch of snowballs hit him in the back. He turned to see Ribbondancer with a handful of snowballs, and the triplet animatronics making more.

“Best part of having four arms. I can beat all of you in a snowball fight!” Ribbondancer beamed as the triplets handed him two more snowballs in his second pair of arms. The lemur animatronic started to launch snowballs at a rapid pace, as he laughed.

Everyone was pelted with snowballs as they all ran for cover by using the trees as a shield.

“Who was the designer who gave Ribbons, four arms?” Carly asked.

Sara and Oliver turned to Lewis with glares. “Oh, and it was Sara who agreed on the design, so she takes half the blame!” Lewis yelled. He was then hit with another snowball over the head. “Wow, you animatronics have good arms.”

Starlight rubbed the back of his head, giving a nervous chuckle. “Apologizes, darling.”

“We need to fight back!” Carly exclaimed, as she created a snowball, and threw it at Ribbondancer, who caught it with his other hand and threw it back at Carly, hitting the girl. She glared and growled before making a bigger snowball and throwing it at Ribbondancer.

The lemur’s eyes widened as the snowball knocked him to the ground, causing his head to fall off.

“Oh shit.” Carly whispered, covering her mouth.

It was silent for a bit as everyone looked at Ribbondancer. “I’m okay!” Ribbondancer yelled. “You really got your head in the game, Carly!”

Carly sighed in relief and ran over to Ribbondacner’s head, picking it up and handing it to his body. His body then put the head back on, spinning it before it locked in place.

“Ah…” Ribbondancer sighed. “Much better.”

“Okay, let’s pause on the snowball fight before one of you robots loses a body part we cant replace or put back.” Carly said.

“I agree,” Rex said, stepping in. “This is getting way too dangerous.”

“Awww.” The triplet animatronics sighed, dropping their snowballs. 

“But, what should we play now?” Melody asked.

Everyone started to think of what would be a fun snowtime activity. Oliver snapped his fingers as an idea came to mind. “I know of a fun activity!” He exclaimed. The taller founder got up and ran to gather some snow, forming it into a ball and putting it back on the ground gently, and started to roll it until it became a bigger ball. “My siblings and I used to do this all the time.”

“What are you making?” Lolli asked.

“A snowman.” Oliver answered.

Ribbondancer’s eyes widened, interested in what a snowman is. “Oooh! Is it going to come to life?” He asked.

“Uhh…” Oliver trailed off. “I mean there’s a song about a snowman coming to life.”

“How did they come to life? By souls?”

“W-What?” The taller founder asked, confused at what the animatronic was talking about.

Sara then went over, gave a nervous chuckle, and covered Ribbondancer’s mouth. “Oh Ribbondancer, you're such a joker.” She laughed.

“I am?” Ribbondancer asked, confused. “But I wasn’t joking.”

Sara laughed nervously again as she pulled Ribbondancer by his tail and dragged him away. Oliver looked at Lewis and Wiatt confused, but the two just shrugged. 

Once Sara and Ribbondancer were away from the group, the female founder glared at the lemur animatronic. “Listen, Oliver doesn’t know about the whole thing! Please don’t mention it or even hint at it.” Sara advised.

“But he’s your best friend, shouldn’t best friends tell each other everything?” Ribbondancer asked.

Sara sighed, “it’s hard to tell Oliver.” She said, looking back at her best friend. Ribbondancer then turned to the taller founder as well.

Oliver was helping LolliPop and Cheer make the two other parts of the snowman, and giving them a thumbs up that they made the head and 2nd body a perfect size.

“Don’t want to shock him, huh?”

Sara gave a chuckle, “pretty much.”

“Well…” Ribbondancer trailed off as he tried to think. “Alright, I’ll keep it hush, hush.”

Sara sighed, “thanks.”

“No problemo, Sara!”

The female founder chuckled and the two went back to the others, who were now wondering what they should make the snowman. “Ribbondancer, you're the artistic one.” Pop spoke up.

“Do you have ideas on what we should make our snow person?” Lolli asked.

Ribbondancer looked at the snowman and started to think. “Aha!” He exclaimed. Ribbondancer then ran back inside the facility, before rushing back out with all of the arts and craft supplies. He looked at the snowman again, and then looked at his crafting supplies before using them to help create the snowman. Once Ribbondancer was done, he revealed the snowman to be a snow version of himself.

The snow Ribbondancer, had a hat similar to his made out of felt, green blush cheeks, green pipe cleaner arms, and a tail made out of a construction paper chain.

“I made a Snowdancer!” Ribbondancer beamed. “Get it, because it’s a snowman Ribbondancer!”

Starlight chuckled, “I get it darling.” He said.

“It’s very cute.” Carly said.

“Want me to make more?” Ribbondancer asked.

Starlight nodded, “do me next, darling.”

“On it!”

Ribbondancer gathered more snow and started to build a Starlight snowman, or a “Snowlight” as he called it.

“Hey guys!” Eric called out. “When your done, I made hot chocolate for all of you!”

“Hot chocolate?” The triplets exclaimed, wondering what it was.

“It’s chocolate milk, but warm and sweet.” Lewis answered.

“With marshmallows.” Sara added.

The triplets and LolliPop smiled and rushed back inside to try this hot chocolate. The founders chuckled, and decided to go inside too. Lewis stopped and turned to Wiatt, Starlight, and the other animatronics who were helping with building a Snowlight.

“Are you darlings, going to come in?” Lewis asked.

“In a bit.” Wiatt replied. “I’m going to help the animatronics with the snowman building, and then we’ll come in.”

“Alright.” Lewis then went back in as Wiatt and the others continued building the Snowlight.

Once it was finished, the Snowlight was revealed to be like a regular snowman, except the head looked like a star. Ribbondancer painted yellow and blue blush cheeks, blue and yellow pompoms on the star points, a blue scarf, and yellow and blue pipe cleaner arms.

“Aww they look cute!” Ribbondancer beamed.

“They do indeed, darling!” Starlight exclaimed. “It looks like me!”

Wiatt chuckled, “it sure does.” He said.

A blow of cold air rushed through the mechanics of the animatronics, causing them to shiver. “Burrr…we should get in before we catch a cold.” Rex said.

“Y-Yeah.” Wiatt shivered. “We can play in the snow later.” The group then started to walk back and join the others inside for hot chocolate.

“Wiatt.” Starlight said.

“Yes, Star?” Wiatt asked.

“Thank you for giving us a fun snow day.” 

Wiatt smiled, “no problem.”

Starlight's Coffee Chapter 1- Happy Hollow Street

Hi guys! Got a new AU for you all and it’s a Coffee Shop AU!

Welcome to Dreamworld felt fitting for a Coffee Shop AU, and after being inspired by another well known coffee shop AU, I just had to create my own. Now, unlike my other AUs this won’t be a multi chapter fanfic, and rather just a series of mini stories centered around the AU. Some will be multi chaptered, but they’d be at least 10 or less chapters. 

I’m working on more AUs for this web series, and because a ton of them are multi chapters/novel length, I wanted at least an AU where it’s just one long drabble, or small multi chapters, where I can work on them from time to time while focusing on my other fanfics.

Big thanks to @gigilefache for being my beta reader!

Enjoy!

Happy Hollow Street is one of the most popular areas in town with many stores, great places to eat, and a popular arcade. Right across from the said arcade stands a brand new coffee shop called Starlight’s Coffee & Cafe, which about this time was set to open. Inside, were three people; Sara Covetman, Oliver Acrimony and Lewis Bright, the owners of the new coffee shop. The three looked to be in their late teens or early 20’s. They set up the inside of the shop with cute and cozy decor.

“Alright, just two weeks left until opening day, and we’re almost done setting up!” Sara beamed.

“I can’t believe the money we saved up back in high school helped us open our very own coffee shop!” Lewis added, as he put up the menu.

“It took us a few years, but we finally got a building to open it.” Oliver said, as he put up paintings and posters on the wall.

For years it was Sara’s dream to open her own business, and it was finally coming true. She saved up money from chores, part time jobs, even competitions with her best friends to bring her coffee shop to life. She couldn’t wait for everyone to come to their lovely coffee shop to relax and hang out.

“Okay, we got everything inside set up and ready to go.” Lewis proclaimed. “Now what’s next on our list?”

Sara pulled out her phone, opened her Notes app and went to her checklist. She saw they were almost done, two more things; Poster advertisements and Storage stocking. “We just need to put up advertisements and get ingredients, then we’re done!” Sara explained. “Maybe, we can open up early at this point.”

Lewis and Oliver smiled, excited they were almost there. “Darling, I can do the posters.” Lewis offered.

“Sure.” Sara replied. She then walked over to the counter and pulled out two huge stacks of paper that made Lewis’s glasses slide off his nose.

“Darling, this is a lot of posters.” Lewis commented.

“Well, I made enough to cover all of Happy Hollow Street.”

Lewis sighed. He grabbed the first stack of paper, then he opened the drawer and took out a roll of tape. “I’ll come back for the rest,” he said. Sara and Oliver nodded in reply. Lewis then left the shop, walked over to the nearby light pole, and taped the first poster. He went around taping posters to other light poles, walls, and even giving it to other business around Happy Hollow Street.

Lewis was about to head back to the shop, when he saw someone running and knocking into him. The pappers fell from Lewis’s arms and onto the ground.

“Oh no.” Lewis groaned. He kneeled to the ground to pick up the papers.

“Do you need help?”

Lewis looked up and he started blushing upon seeing the other boy in front of him. The boy looked shorter then him, with messy brown hair, and round shaped glasses. He wore a blue vest with stars over a lilac shirt with folded sleeves, dark blue pants, and brown shoes.

“Uh…” Lewis trailed off not knowing what to say to the gentleman.

The smaller boy waited for his response, but from the looks of the stacks of paper, concluded Lewis needed help. “Here. I’ll help you.” The boy said, kneeling down and starting to pick up the papers.

Lewis snapped out of it and went to pick up the papers too, only to touch the boy’s hand. The two looked up and the two boys started to blush. They quickly moved their hands away and looked down nervously.

 The boy read the advertisement, seeing it was for the coffee shop opening across the street from his family’s arcade.

“Oh, so your one of the workers of the coffee shop opening soon.” The smaller boy said, standing up.

“I’m one of the owners, darling.” Lewis replied, standing up as well.

The boy was impressed. “Really? You look too young to be running a business.”

“I’m only 20-years old.”

“Same here!” The smaller boy exclaimed. He then held his hand out, “nice to meet ya, I’m Wiatt Nicholson.”

“I’m Lewis Bright.” He replied, shaking Wiatt’s hand.

“Well, welcome to Happy Hollow Street.” Wiatt said, as he let go of Lewis’s hand.

“Thank you, darling.”

“No problem, darling.” Wiatt replied, giving a smug smile.

Lewis blushed and gave a nervous chuckle. He never had anyone use darling on him, not even his friends. Yet, here’s this boy he never met using darling at him, and it was attracting. Lewis cleared his throat and quickly changed the subject hoping the blush on his face would disappear. As they were chatting they started putting the rest of the posters up together.

“S-So your grandfather runs the Nickel Per Play Arcade?” Lewis asked.

Wiatt nodded as he taped one of the posters on the wall. “Yep!”

“I used to play there all the time when I was a kid.”

“Really?” Wiatt asked. Lewis nodded in reply. “Did you open the coffee shop across from the arcade because of it?”

Lewis chuckled while putting up another poster. “No. It was just a coincidence that the only open building was across from the arcade.” He explained.

“You must feel lucky!” Wiatt exclaimed.

“You can say that.”

The two boys continued to put up and give out posters for the coffee shop. While doing so, Wiatt and Lewis kept on glancing at each other and blushed every time he saw the other’s eyes. Lewis wanted to ask if Wiatt was single, but it felt rude to ask. Wiatt wanted to do the same, but he was worried if Lewis had someone already or wasn’t into him. Then again the blush on Lewis’s face said so otherwise. 

“So…” Wiatt trailed off.

“So…what?” Lewis asked as he put another poster up.

“Uh…are you…available later today?” Wiatt asked.

“I just got to do a few things inside the shop, but I’m free after that.” Lewis answered.

Wiatt smiled. “ I was wondering if you’d like to hang out at the arcade and play some games?”

Lewis smiled. “Sure!” He beamed. “I mean,” Lewis cleared his throat, “sure I’m up for it.”

“Great!” Wiatt exclaimed. 

“Lets finish with these posters, then I’ll grab the next ones to put up, and then we can hang out at the arcade.”

Wiatt nodded. “Okay!”

The two put the rest of the posters up, and soon the stack was completely pinned to every wall and pole. They headed back to Starlight Coffee & Cafe, but someone came out and marched behind them, looming over the two.

“Wiatt!” A gruff voice yelled.

Wiatt and Lewis is gasped and turned around to see an older man come out and walk over to the two boys. The man wore a blue jacket over a dark blue polo shirt, black jeans, and black shoes.

“Where were you?” The man asked.

Wiatt chuckled. “Sorry, Grandpa.” He replied. “I was just showing Lewis around. He and his friends own the coffee shop across the arcade.”

The older man glared at Lewis. Lewis shivered to where he couldn’t think of anything to say that was polite polite to the older man.

“Oh Lewis, this is my grandfather, Carlos Nicholson, the owner of Nickel Per Play Arcade.” Wiatt introduced his grandfather. “Grandpa, this is Lewis Bright.”

“N-Nice to meet you, sir.” Lewis stuttered, as his hand nervously shook, trying to shake the older man’s hand.

Carlos gave the boy a cold glare, before a smile formed as he shook Lewis’s hand, tightly. Lewis flinched as the older man’s grasp became harsher. 

Carlos laughed. “Well, welcome to the neighborhood, kiddo! Sorry for the scare!” He beamed.

“N-No problem, sir.” Lewis stuttered, in pain.

Carlos let go. Lewis held his hand feeling it throb. “So, what have you been doing with my grandson?” The older man asked.

“I was just putting posters around for our new coffee shop, and Wiatt offered to help me.” Lewis explained. 

Carlos looked at his grandson, who nodded in reply. The older man sighed, “as much as I appreciate my grandson helping you. I need him to watch the arcade for a bit while I go run an errand.” He explained.

Wiatt sighed and pouted, but Lewis patted his new friend on the shoulder. “Don’t worry, darling. When I’m done I’ll come in and hang out with you.” He explained.

Wiatt smiled, “thanks Lewis.” He said.

Lewis smiled. “Anytime, darling.”

Wiatt walked back inside the arcade while Carlos left to go run his errand. Lewis walked back inside the cafe and grabbed the rest of the posters. However, he looked up to see Oliver and Sara smirking at him.

“Darlings, why are you looking at me like that?” Lewis asked.

“Did we just see you flirt with the Nicholson kid?” Sara asked.

Lewis blushed, “uh…not really flirt. We just hung out for a bit.” He replied. “Wait, you know him?”

Sara nodded, “he and his grandfather came to me a few days ago to say hi.” She explained. “They seem pretty nice.”

“Yeah, he is.” Lewis sighed, as he turned to the window to see Wiatt overlooking the counter at the arcade.

Oliver went over and put his arm around Lewis. “Sounds like you like him?” He asked.

“I-I mean.” Lewis replied blushing. “He’s cute.”

“Ooooh.” Oliver and Sara said at the same time.

Lewis’s face turned a bright red as he glared at his friends, who chuckled in response. He then marched out the door and slammed it, which made Oliver stop chuckling but not Sara. She continued to laugh until Oliver nudged her shoulder, causing her to stop.

“What?” Sara asked.

Oliver pointed to where Lewis was standing and saw he was gone.

Sara’s face quickly formed into a frown. “Oh.” She sighed. “Too far?”

Oliver nodded in reply, while Sara sighed.

“Don’t worry, he’ll calm down once he’s done.” Oliver reassured his best friend.

Sara nodded as she and Oliver went back to working more on the inside of the coffee shop.

After Lewis finished with putting around the posters. He felt better, and decided to go straight to Nickel Per Play Arcade. Once inside he realized everything looked the same as the last time he was there. There were some new arcade games and claw machines, but that seemed to be it, everything else was as he remembered it.

Lewis looked around to find Wiatt, and saw him helping three boys with their prizes. One boy wanted a purple robot toy, the other wanted a stuffed rabbit, and the last boy got a water gun. They thanked Wiatt before they ran back to their parents and showed them the prizes they got.

Wiatt chuckled. He then saw Lewis and smiled. “Hey! You made it!” He exclaimed.

Lewis chuckled. “Sure have,” he said. “So, what do you feel like doing darling?”

“I don’t know, what are you up for, darling?” Wiatt asked, narrowing his eyes and smirking.

Lewis’s face turned red as a tomato as he let out a nervous laugh. “W-Why do you like calling me darling?”

“Well, you call me darling, so I should also call you darling.” Wiatt replied.

Lewis chuckled nervously. “Well, I call everyone darling. Even my friends.”

Wiatt chuckled, “well, it’s dashing.”

Lewis squeaked as his face turned very red. He turned away from the other boy, as the latter chuckled. “C-Come on let’s play some games.” He stuttered, grabbing Wiatt’s hand and dragging him to the arcade floor. Wiatt chuckled seeing his cru-er-new friend be all flustered.

Once calm, Wiatt helped Lewis with his game card and the two spent the rest of the day playing arcade games together. Lewis was so impressed with how skilled Wiatt was with gaming, that he would be distracted as Lewis lost.

“Yes!” Wiatt cheered, beating Lewis for the 5th time. “Beat you again!”

Lewis sighed, chuckling. “You have skills darling.” He said. “I guess I’m distracted by your skills.”

“Well, I’ve grown up in this arcade so I’ve learned a lot.” Wiatt said, stretching.

“I can tell.”

Wiatt smiled and Lewis smiled back, rubbing the back of his head blushing. “So, you want to play more or do you need to head back?” Wiatt asked.

Lewis looked back at the coffee shop before looking back at Wiatt. “I guess I can play a few more games before I go back.”

“Cool!” Wiatt beamed. “Want to play the new VR game we got set up?”

“Sure!” Lewis replied. The two boys ran over to the VR game and started playing.

Back at the coffee shop, Sara looked through the window, and glared at her best friend hanging out with Wiatt across the street. They we’re near opening day, and yet Lewis was playing games and flirting with the Nicholson.

Oliver didn’t seem to mind, “relax Sara, Lewis is having fun.”

“I know that!” Sara spat. “It’s just, we have a coffee shop to set up, and Lewis is busy playing video games.”

“Sara.” Oliver said, putting his hand on her shoulder. “You can’t be jealous over Lewis making new friends, or in his case, a boyfriend.”

Sara frowned and turned away. She didn’t have a crush on Lewis, but he was one of her first best friends. He protected her from the bullying she went through, even to the point he took a beating, which landed him in the hospital.

Oliver frowned and tried to think of something else to help cheer Sara up. “Even though we’re near opening, it doesn’t hurt for Lewis to take a break.” Oliver stated. “Plus, you did say we could open early, so Lewis spending time with Wiatt doesn’t sound so bad.”

Sara glanced at the arcade and sighed, “I guess it wouldn’t hurt.” She replied. However, she lied as it was a bad idea.

Oliver smiled. “See! What can go wrong?” He asked.

“Everything.” Sara thought.

Oliver then heard his phone vibrating and pulled it out from his pocket. He saw it was his younger sister Liz calling him. “Sara, think you can bring the cups to the storage room? My sister is calling me.” He asked.

Sara nodded. “Sure.” She replied, picking up the boxes.

Oliver picked up the phone and walked outside to take the call. 

Sara then made her way to the storage room. She walked down the hallway to it, and just as she was about to open the door to the room, she saw another locked door nearby that piqued her interest. 

Curious, she put the boxes down, and went to look at the door. The only odd thing about it, was the keyhole was in the shape of an eye. “Huh?” She wondered. Sara remembered in her office, a case with keys all hung up, and quickly went there hoping to find the key for the door.

In her office, Sara saw the case hung over her desk and opened it. Inside she saw many different keys, and one stood out; a black key with a red eye on the top. She took the key and went back to the door, putting the key into the keyhole and twisting it. Sara heard the door unlock, and upon opening the door there was a flight of stairs, going down.

“Huh?” Sara asked. She stepped in and walked downstairs, and was surprised to see bottles filled with colorful substances. “Are these potions?” Sara looked around seeing the amounts of potions around her. She froze seeing a giant, rusted red book at the end of the room. Walking towards it, Sara brushed her fingers on the dusty book. She brushed the dust off her hands on her pants as she read who the book belonged to.

“By Edmund L. Avidmiser.” Sara read. She wondered what he wrote in this book, and carefully opened it. There she saw many potion recipes, some looked worn out due to age, but some were able to be read. “No way!” Sara laughed, as she continued to look through the book.

The potion recipes ranged from making flowers grow bigger, being sticky like glue, all the way to making you fly.

“This is amazing!” Sara exclaimed. Suddenly, she had an amazing idea. Something that could make the coffee shop one of the best places in Happy Hollow Street.

Dreamers of Myths & Legends Chap.9-Scorbunny: The Wild Child

Here is the next chapter and Part 2 of the Galar Story. I’ve been on a Pokemon kick lately and have been setting up future chapters for this AU. I have scripts up to Chapter 14, but I’ve been focused on other fanfics and work to set them up properly. Also I’d rather take things one step at a time, but I’m excited for these chapters to drop.

Big thanks to my beta reader @gigilefache

Enjoy!

Danica was in the kitchen preparing the vegetables for lunch while her Lillipup and Yamper were playing around nearby. Until that is, the three heard calls from her son.

“Mom! Mom! We have an emergency!” Lewis yelled, as he came through the door.

Danica left the kitchen and ran to Lewis, hugging her son tight. “What happened? Did you get hurt by a wild Pokemon? Fell and scraped your knee?” Danica was frantically asking questions if her son got hurt while Lewis muffled and tried to pull away from his mom’s embrace.

“No mom!” Lewis muffled, as he gently pushed her away. “It’s not me, but Sara’s Skiddo.”

Danica and Lewis turned to Sara holding Skiddo’s Pokeball. Her Piplup stood by her as he rubbed her leg for comfort. Wiatt and Oliver approached, both also worried for the young girl.

“What happened?” Danica asked.

“We ran into a Scorbunny and it attacked Skiddo.” Oliver answered.

Danica frowned and walked over to Sara. “Sara, could you send out your Skiddo?” She asked, causing the young girl to look up. “I just want to see her injuries.”

Sara nodded, and opened up Skiddo’s Pokeball. Once Skiddo was out, she looked exhausted, still in pain from the injuries from the burn she suffered.

Danica kneeled down and looked at the Mount Pokémon. “She looks burnt,” she said. “Lewis, get my medical kit.”

Lewis nodded and went to another room to grab the medical kit. As he was grabbing the kit, Danica checked Skiddo’s injuries again and remembered mentio's remark.

“Oliver, did you mention a Scorbunny did this?” Danica asked.

Oliver looked at the older woman and nodded.

Danica sighed, “not again.”

“Wait, mom you know about the Scorbunny?” Lewis asked, as he came in with the medical kit.

Danica nodded. Not a moment too soon, she started to treat Skiddo as she simultaneously ready to tell the story too her son and his friends. The four sat down listening to the older woman. “Scorbunny is well known in the Wild Area. I met him a month after you left on your journey Lewis.”

Flashback: 1 Month after Lewis left for Kanto

“I found him after releasing the Rookiedee and Nickit we took care of before you left.”

After Danica released the two Pokemon, she heard the grunts of pain coming from behind the bushes. She turned around and saw Scorbunny limping and covered in bruises. Danica was horrified and went over to the fire-type Pokemon.

“Who did this to you?” Danica asked.

Scorbunny turned away, but flinched at the pain he was in.

Carefully, Danica held him and took him back to her house to get the Rabbit Pokemon treated. At home, she bandaged up the fire-type Pokemon and saw him glare at the window. 

“I treated for his injuries back home, but I wondered what kind of battles this Scorbunny was getting into.” Danica explained. “After this Scorbunny would come back injured, and soon many Pokemon in the Wild Area were injured thanks to Scorbunny.”

Danica was picking berries and saw an injured Nickit, Wingull and Bunnelby. She went over to the three Pokemon before hearing Scorbunny laugh. She looked over at him as the fire-type Pokemon smirked and ran off, eating a berry.

Flashback ends:

“So, Scorbunny has been getting into fights with Pokemon?” Oliver asked.

Danica nodded, “yes, I wonder if the Pokemon who gave him the injuries the first time we met sparked his attitude.” She wondered, as she finished bandaging up Skiddo.

“It’s possible.” Wiatt replied. He then looked at Oddity, “I wonder if the noises we heard earlier were Scorbunny intimidating him.”

“Eevee.” Oddity agreed.

Danica smiled seeing Skiddo was done being treated. “There. Sara, your Skiddo is going to be just fine.”

Sara smiled and got up as she went over to her Pokemon. The Mount Pokemon bleated happily as Sara hugged her tight. “Oh I’m glad you're okay!” Sara beamed.

Skiddo bleated in reply as she licked her trainer’s face, causing her to laugh.

Lewis and Wiatt smiled, but saw Oliver frowning. “Oliver.” Wiatt started.

“Are you okay darling?” Lewis asked.

The taller boy did not respond, as he was thinking about Scorbunny. He wondered why the Pokémon acted so violently, and if the fire-type wasn’t going to tell him, he’ll find a way, nicely. Oliver got up and went over to the kitchen and picked up an Oran Berry they collected earlier. He then walked towards the door.

“Where are you going?” Wiatt asked.

“I’m going to find Scorbunny.” Oliver replied.

The group looked shocked, but Sara was angry that Oliver wanted to give that mischievous Pokemon a chance. “After what Scorbunny did to my Skiddo, you want to become friends with it?” She asked, growling a bit.

Oliver glared back, “yes, I need to know why Scorbunny acts like this.” Oliver opened the door and stepped out, but before he left he glanced back at his friends. “Besides, I’m the only one who doesn’t have a Pokemon yet.” Oliver then left the house as everyone looked at each other.

Back at the Wild Area, Scorbunny had three pebbles beside him ready to kick towards an Apple tree. He kicked one, which only swung the apples in the tree back and forth. The second one he kicked hit an apple, but still it didn’t fall. The final pebble, Scorbunny kicked hard enough, causing his Ember attack to activate and burning the apple to the crisp.

Scorbunny sighed seeing he wouldn’t get to enjoy an apple after all.

“Scorbunny!” Oliver yelled.

“Scor?” Scorbunny asked as he turned around and saw the taller boy. The Rabbit Pokemon glared at him and growled, “Scorbun…”

“Scorbunny wait. I’m not here to fight you.” Oliver reassured him.

Scorbunny continued to growl and started to walk towards him. Oliver didn’t step back, and quickly grabbed the Oran Berry from his pocket, causing Scorbunny to stop and stare at the boy.

“See, I’m just trying to be nice.” Oliver said. “I know what you did with Sara’s Skiddo was wrong, but I want to understand why you did that.”

Scorbunny cautiously walked towards the taller boy, but didn’t take the berry. “Scorbunny,” he said.

“It’s alright, you can take it.” Oliver reassured him. “I’m not going to hurt you, I just want to talk to you.”

Scorbunny narrowed his eyes and grabbed the berry and took a bite out of it. He turned away as he ate the berry.

Oliver smiled and sat next to Scorbunny, “now, I need to know why you did what you did.”

Scorbunny took a glance at Oliver, continuing to eat the berry. He didn’t respond, and turned away.

Oliver frowned, and remembered what Danica said about Scorbunny. “Did someone hurt you?” He asked.

Scorbunny’s eyes widened, and nodded.

“I’m sorry that happened to you, but that doesn’t give you an excuse to hurt other Pokemon.” Oliver said.

“Scorbun.” Scorbunny groaned.

Oliver sighed, “listen. I’m offering to be your friend Scorbunny.”

“Scorbunny!” Scorbunny exclaimed, turning to Oliver. He wasn’t sure if the taller boy was telling the truth, but in reality Scorbunny was lonely, and loved the idea of companionship.

Oliver looked into Scorbunny’s eyes and sighed. He went into his pocket and pulled out a photo. “You know, you remind me a lot of my younger brother.”

Scorbunny turned to see a photo of a young boy and girl who appeared to be twins. “Scorbun.” Scorbunny said, pointing at the boy.

Oliver nodded and chuckled, “yeah you're both stubborn and pranksters.”

The fire type glared and puffed up his cheeks, which made Oliver laugh.

“Yep, your most definitely like Ben.”

Scorbunny sighed, and smiled and the tall boy. He thought to himself and saw Oliver wasn’t so bad. He was pretty cool. Plus he did give him a berry. Suddenly, the fire-type’s ear twitched, hearing something in the distance. “Score! Scorbun!” Scorbunny exclaimed.

“What’s wrong Scorbunny?” Oliver asked.

Scorbunny looked around as his ear continued to twitch. He immediately ran to where the commotion was going on. Oliver put the photo back into his pocket, and followed behind. after a bit of running the two were horrified at what they saw. Two Rookiedee, a Wooper, and a Minccino were caught in a net and was dragged through the bushes.

Angry at whoever was doing this, Oliver and Scorbunny looked at each other and nodded as they went through the bushes. Oliver gasped and stopped the fire-type from getting further. “Scor?” Scorbunny asked.

“Shh.” Oliver shushed Scorbunny as the two saw who stole the Pokemon; Team Rocket.

Meowth laughed as the captured Pokemon were put inside the back of an Ariados robot. “See, I told you our Robo-Ariados can shoot nets up to miles away and store them safe and sound until we see the boss.” He explained. Inside the robot, there were many Pokemon including the ones just captured inside shaking in fear.

“Brilliant Meowth!” Jessie exclaimed. “Shall we stop for today and get going?”

Meowth smile proudly, “we can take a break once we find the twerps’ Pokemon.”

Oliver growled and glared at that claim.

James, however, was concerned about the idea, “are you sure about that Meowth?” He asked. “We’ll get caught if we keep sneaking around stealing Pokemon.”

“Nah, don’t worry!” Meowth reassured his friend.

Jessie then spoke up, “May I remind you, were in the Wild Area. If we get caught here, we can just go to another part of the Wild Area. We hide, steal more Pokemon, rinse and repeat!”

James thought about it for a second, before liking the idea, “I guess that doesn’t sound too bad.”

“Not only that it will show the whole of Team Rocket that we’re not a bunch of quitters!” Meowth exclaimed.

“Wobbuffet!” Wobbuffett exclaimed as well.

“Team Rocket!” Oliver yelled, coming out of the bushes.

Team Rocket stopped and turned to see the taller boy and Scorbunny glaring at them. “Release those Pokemon now!”

“Scorbunny! Scorbun!” Scorbunny yelled.

Team Rocket chuckled before getting into their motto. “Prepare for trouble twerp, you're a bit late!” Jessie started.

“And make it double, while we instigate!” James exclaimed.

“To protect the world from devastation!” Jessie continued.

“To unite all peoples within our nation.” James continued.

“To denounce the evils of truth and love.”

“To extend our reach to the stars above.”

“Jessie!”

“James!”

As Team Rocket continued their motto, Scorbunny yawned. He looked down at the pebble and looked up at Team Rocket with a smirk. “Scorbunny!” Scorbunny exclaimed, kicking a pebble at Meowth before he could finish his part of the motto.

“Meowth, that’s-ah!” He screamed being knocked to the ground.

“Wobbuffet?” Wobbufett asked.

Meowth got up, now with a bump on his head. “Hey, don’t just kick rocks at me while we do the motto, Long Ears!” He yelled.

“Scorbunny! Scorbun bun.” Scorbunny replied.

Meowth gasped, putting his hand to his chest as he was offended at what he was just told. “I can’t believe you said that!”

“What did he say?” Jessie asked.

“He called our motto ridiculous.” Meowth cried.

Jessie and James dramatically gasped. “How dare you insult our motto?!” Jessie exclaimed.

“We’ve been doing this motto for a long time with new revisions!” James added.

Scorbunny yawned in reply.

“Don’t just yawn and ignore us!” Jessie yelled.

“Scorbun. Scorbunny.” Scorbunny said.

Meowth growled, “I don’t care if you lived here longer, we won’t be sass-talked by a twerp!”

“Scorbunny.” Scorbunny replied. “Scor.”

The Scratch Cat Pokemon gasped hearing Scorbunny just insult him causing him to burst into flames. “That’s it!” Meowth yelled. “Jessie, James get your Pokemon out and lets teach this twerp a lesson!”

“Fine by me!” Jessie replied. “Go, Seviper!” Jessie threw her Pokeball and out came her Seviper.

Seviper hissed upon coming out of their Pokeball.

“Inkay, let’s go!” James yelled as he sent out his Pokemon.

“Inkay!” Inkay beamed.

Oliver realized he was out numbered, but heard Scorbunny call out to him. “Scorbunny!”

“Huh?” Oliver asked.

“Scorbun. Scorbunny.” Scorbunny replied, reassuring the taller boy that he could battle these two on his own.

Oliver nodded, putting his trust in the Rabbit Pokemon. “Alright, let’s do this.” Oliver said, ready to battle Team Rocket.

“Scorbun.” Scorbunny said.

“Seviper use Bite!” Jessie commanded.

Seviper hissed as they made their way towards Scorbunny.

“Dodge it, Scorbunny!” Oliver commanded.

Scorbunny jumped upwards, missing the Fang Snake Pokémon. The latter kept trying to catch the fire-type Pokemon, but Scorbunny was just too fast for them.

“Inkay, use Psybeam!” James commanded.

“Inkay!” Inkay shrieked as he used his head to launch Psybeam at Scorbunny.

The fire-type missed the attack, and the Psybeam hit Seviper. The poison-type Pokemon hissed in pain as the psychic attack caused major damage on them.

“Seviper, catch that brat with your Poison Tail!” Jessie commanded.

“Sev…iper!” Seviper shouted as their tail started to glow purple and was ready to swing it on Scorbunny.

“Dodge it, quick!” Oliver commanded.

Scorbunny jumped up again missing the attack, however the attack hit Inkay.

“Inkay!” Inkay screamed in pain.

“Inkay, no!” James yelled.

Inkay crashed into the ground, injured from the attack.

Scorbunny landed on the ground as he rubbed his nose and gave a confident smile.

“Wow.” Oliver commented, blinking in surprise. “Your good at this Scorbunny.”

“Scorbun. Scorbunny.” Scorbunny replied.

Seviper then came from behind Scorbunny, and the fire-type didn’t notice it.

“Scorbunny, look out!” Oliver shouted.

Scorbunny turned to see Seviper trying to grab him. He tried to jump to miss the attack, but Seviper quickly snatched Scorbunny and held him tight. The fire-type struggled to break free from Seviper’s grasp.

Team Rocket laughed, happy that they captured the fire-type Pokemon.

“Let him go Team Rocket!” Oliver yelled.

“For being a smart mouth to Team Rocket, and being a twerp? No way!” Meowth yelled.

Oliver growled, trying to figure out what to do. He had no other Pokemon, and Wiatt and the others were still at Lewis’s house.

“Eevee!”

Oliver gasped, hearing a call of an Eevee. A familiar Eevee to be exact.

Suddenly, a Shadow Ball appeared and hit Seviper, causing them to let go of Scorbunny. The fire-type landed with ease, shocked that he was saved.

“Oliver!”

Oliver turned around and saw his friends and their Pokemon ready to join the fight. “You guys made it!” He yelled.

“Hey, we saw what was going on, darling.” Lewis started.

“Meow.” Sprigatito added.

“We’re not missing out on taking down Team Rocket!” Wiatt exclaimed.

“Eevee!” Oddity exclaimed as well.

Scorbunny was shocked to see everyone else help him and Oliver. He then felt vines help him up, which belonged to Skiddo. He was surprised that out of everyone, Skiddo was willing to forgive and help him to his feet.

Skiddo belatedly tells Scorbunny I'm a language only pokemon could understand that despite him being a jerk, she forgives him, but only a little bit.

Scorbunny chuckled in reply. He then looked to see Oddity and Sprigatito who stood beside him and Skiddo preparing to battle Team Rocket.

Jessie, James  and their Pokemon look horrified seeing they were unmatched four to two.

“Well, this is going to be fun.” Meowth said.

“How come, Meowth?” James asked as he and Jessie looked down at their small friend.

“We defeat them, and we steal their Pokemon, too.” Meowth answered.

Jessie and James smiled hearing the idea. “Now that cheered me up!” Jessie exclaimed.

“Wobbuffet!” Wobbuffet exclaimed.

“Oddity, use Shadow Ball on Inkay!” Wiatt commanded.

“Sprigatito, use Leafage on Seviper!” Lewis commanded.

The two heroic Pokemon used their attacks on the two evil Pokemon, dealing massive damage. However, the opposition still stood strong.

“Seviper, use Poison Tail!” Jessie commanded.

“Inkay, use Foul Play!” James commanded.

Seviper’s tail glowed purple, ready to swing it at Sprigatito while Inkay was attempting to grab Oddity.

“Skiddo, grab the Pokemon with Vine Whip!” Sara commanded.

Skiddo bleated as a pair of vines came from her neck as she grabbed Seviper and Inkay before swinging them and throwing them at Meowth. The three Pokemon were then thrown at the machine chest where the Pokemon were stored, causing it to crack.

“Alright, Scorbunny, use Ember!” Oliver commanded.

“Scor!” Scorbunny yelled. The fire type Pokemon used a pebble and kicked it around until it burst into flames. The Ember attack hit the machine, cracking it even more.

“Okay, Scorbunny, use Quick Attack!” Oliver commanded 

“Use Quick Attack too Oddity!” Wiatt added.

“Skiddo, help out with Take Down!” Sara added as well.

The three Pokemon ran, and at the same time, rammed into the machine, breaking it into many pieces. The Pokemon flooded out and quickly ran or flew away from the machine.

Team Rocket were in shock seeing all their captured Pokemon get away. “All our hard work is escaping!” Jessie exclaimed.

“Quick, let’s hop in the Robo-Ariados and catch them back!” Meowth exclaimed.

“Right.” Team Rocket replied.

The trio and their Pokemon bounced inside the robot as it started to move. Wiatt and his friends stepped back when the robot pointed right at them and their Pokemon. Team Rocket laughed, safe inside their machine.

“Alright, time to grab us some Pokemon!” Meowth yelled, as he pressed a button.

The Robo-Ariados formed a net on its spinneret ready to capture Oddity and the other Pokemon.

Scorbunny turned to his new friends in horror, then glared at Team Rocket. Scorbunny looked around and saw a rock and smirked. He sprinted towards the rock as his feet started to fire up, then he skid and kicked the rock as hard as he could, hitting the net of the robot and causing the net to burn to a crisp, an action that caused the robot to burst into flames. Team Rocket shouted in pain, “Hot! Hot! Hot!” as bits and pieces of the robot started to break off.

Scorbunny tried to run and dodge all of the falling debris, only to trip and fall. He turned and saw his foot was caught in the trap Team Rocket made. Oliver gasped seeing Scorbunny trapped as Team Rocket’s mecha was ready to blow.

“Scorbunny!” Oliver yelled.

Scorbunny struggled to break free. Team Rocket’s machine started to spark and blow smoke.

“If we don’t hurry, Scorbunny is going to get caught in the blast!” Wiatt exclaimed.

Oliver frantically thought of what to do, and his eyes widened as an idea came to mind. He went into his fanny pack and took out an unused Pokeball, “Okay, go Pokeball!” Oliver yelled as he threw the Pokeball towards Scorbunny. The Pokeball hits Scorbunny and opens, putting the fire-type inside as Team Rocket’s machine exploded. The Dream Quartet braced themselves from the blast.

Team Rocket now charred and defeated were being blasted to the sky. “Team Rocket’s blasting off again!” They yelled as they blasted off into the sky as a star twinkled.

The blast finally cleared away, and the Dream Quartet uncovered their eyes and looked up from the smoke. “Everyone okay?” Lewis asked.

“I'm fine.” Sara replied.

“Same here.” Wiatt added.

Lewis and his friends turned to Oliver, who stared at the Pokeball shaking on the ground. His friends faced the Pokeball too as a click was heard, successfully capturing Scorbunny. 

Oliver was surprised and went over to the Pokeball. He picked it up and gave a smile. Oliver threw the Pokeball in the air, “come on out!” 

The Pokeball opened and Scorbunny came out. He looked around, shocked he didn’t blow up into smithereens or blast off with Team Rocket.

“Are you okay, Scorbunny?” Oliver asked, concerned for the fire-type.

“Scorbunny?” Scorbunny asked. The fire-type looked at the taller boy and saw his expression. The Rabbit Pokemon looked at himself and saw not a scratch on him, which made him smile and put his paws on his hips proudly. “Scorbunny!”

Oliver sighed, seeing Scorbunny was okay. “Thank goodness.” He said. He walked closer and kneeled to the fire-type’s level. “That was cool what you did there.”

“Scorbun?” Scorbunny asked, tilting his head confused.

“Saving the Pokemon and stopping Team Rocket. You’re a troublemaker, but you're not a bad Pokemon.” 

Scorbunny’s eyes widened and teared up at the words Oliver said to him. He sniffled and wiped his eyes as Scorbunny jumped into Oliver’s arms calling out to him.

Oliver caught him and hugged the fire-type tight. He chuckled before letting go, “we’re going to be a great team.”

“Scorbunny!” Scorbunny exclaimed. However, his stomach started to rumble, causing him to laugh in embarrassment.

Oliver chuckled, “guess you're getting hungry?” He asked.

Scorbunny nodded in reply as his stomach rumbled again, making him embarrassed.

“Well we better head back to your house Lewis.” Oliver said, turning to his friend.

Lewis nodded, “luckily, we got all the ingredients needed and my mom started cooking when we left.” He explained. “It should be done now.”

“Well what are we waiting for?” Sara asked. “Come on, let’s eat!”

The group got excited as they ran to Lewis’s house to enjoy their late lunch. Upon arriving to the house, the smell of curry filled the room as Lewis and his mother cooked the meal together. Other than the curry, there were also some side dishes like bread and vegetables. “It smells so good.” Sara commented.

“I can’t wait to taste it.” Wiatt said, his mouth drooling a bit over how good the food smelled.

Lewis chuckled, “it’s almost done darling.”

Wiatt, Sara Oliver, and their Pokémon got excited. Soon, the timer rang and Lewis smiled knowing the food was done.

“Alright. It’s ready!” Danica exclaimed.

She turned off the heat and then put curry on a few plates with some rice. Lewis and his mom served everyone their plate, and for their Pokémon, special bowls of curry for them to try. Lewis’s friends eyes sparkled and widened at how good the food looked, and were excited to try it.

Lewis sat down between Wiatt and Sara and scooped up some curry in a spoon. “Well, dig in guys.” He said, as he took a bite.

Wiatt, Sara, and Oliver each took a bite of the curry, as did their Pokemon. However, as they kept eating, the trio started to sweat as their faces turned red. “H-Hot.” Wiatt coughed out.

Lewis who swallowed his didn’t feel the heat kick in, “it doesn’t taste that hot, darling.” He said, eating more.

“I-It’s not!” Sara coughed out. “This thing is burning my mouth!”

The group’s Pokemon except Oddity and Scorbunny were in pain from how spicy the curry was.

Danica took a bite out of the curry and chuckled as her face turned a bit red. “It’s spicy, but it actually tastes good.” She commented.

“H-How is it so…spicy?” Oliver asked, as he struggled to swallow the curry. He then heard a chuckle and looked down at Scorbunny, who ate the curry like it was nothing. Oliver glared, “Scorbunny, did you do something with the curry?”

Scorbunny smirked and pulled out a Tomato Berry.

“D-Did you add extra Tomato Berries to the curry?!” Oliver yelled.

“Scorbun.” Scorbunny replied, winking.

The group continued to cough and complain over how spicy the curry was, simultaneously scolding Scorbunny. The fire-type snickered as he took a big bite of his curry, and took joy thinking about how he would  enjoy his new life with his new friends.
