Chapter Text
The sound was too silent. it seems even the wind backed up like even it didn’t wanna deal with this issue. As he stared down reading those words over and over again
“Lost Cause”
The emotions filled his head, Rage, Sadness, and one he couldn’t describe, Maybe Guilt? He didn't want to believe what Mane said, even though deep down he was true.
But he felt all alone, the last conversation before his disappearance wasn’t the best to end off, it was a fight.
Manepear had sold Eggchan out of the Mafia, and his pearl was pulled. Wemmbu he couldn’t believe it, Mane had sold him out for the mace. Maybe he’ll never know why he did. there was one obvious reason. The mace.
Wemmbu knew he could tell Egg anything, that was his best friend. But he never did, Eggchan wasn’t stupid. He knew his best friend was hiding things, but if he ever wanted to talk about it, the subject would be changed.
Wemmbu didn’t have much people that he got along with, he didn’t like Parrot that much, Flame was his rival he didn’t hate Flame, but he wasn’t a fan of him either. And then there was Spoke, Spoke was definitely more of a wildcard you could say.
During their long trip to the farlands, Wemmbu explained, that he felt weak or not as strong enough & Eggchan Replied.
The angel wings slightly expanded as he spoke, “Wemmbu, you don’t have to do all this work to become the most powerful. There’s other stuff you’re good at. You don’t have to put yourself through this.”
Eggchan looked at him really looked at him. he was tired he knew Wemmbu would never admit it though. Wemmbu would rather die then admit his weakness.
The demon looked at the Angel, and laughed. Who was he without his power.? “Egg without my power, who am I?” Wemmbu laughed, It wasn’t a happy one though it sounded more pitiful than anything.
As they walked, the mood just felt off. Egg didn't know what to say or do, he knew that his bestfriend felt weak, but what could he do to help.
Soon night fall and the two kept walking farther and farther into the farlands. The angel spoke calmly as he looked at the demon, "Wem, we been walking all day, maybe we should take a break and rest? No one is gonna find us out here anyways."
The demon froze as the angel had gently put his hand on the demon's shoulder, the demon wasn't mad at the simple touch of comfort, just surprise. The demon even if he didn't want to admit it, he knew the angel was right. he was tired and a rest would definitely help with it. So the demon spoke softly as he looked at the angel. "Fine, lets just find an area that's not so out in the open, then we can rest okay Egg?"
The angel smiled knowing he had got through to him, it was still a long walk as the land was just repeating but, finally after a long five thousand blocks the biome changed into a Sunflower field.
As much as the demon didn't want to stop here, his legs were to tired to walk thousand or millions of blocks to the next biome.
The angel slowly walked in the field quickly finding a stop that wasn't packed with sunflowers and had room for both of them.
Soon the demon followed it took him a few minutes as he couldn't focus on anything but the but the sunflowers.
Rejoice.
The demon slowly walked over to his bestfriend and sat down next to him.
The angel quitely undid the demon long purple hair and slowly brushed though it as he spoke to him. "Wemmbu, you know his death isn't your fault right, you tired your best."
The demon cut him off before he could continue, his voice being shaky as he respond.
"But it is, I could have been stronger and he would still be alive, he could be here with us right now Egg, but now he's dead and it's my fault, I couldn't save him."
The demon hated feeling like this, he felt so weak. he was still trembling as he refused to cry as that made him feel more weak then he already felt.
The angel hugged him gently, what could he say to him, the demon was barely holding it together. The angel softly warped his wing's around the both of them as he comforted his bestfriend.
As the night went on the angel fell asleep on the demon shoulder.
The demon couldn't sleep though, all he could think about was, if he was stronger how he could've saved Rejoice, or maybe Mane wouldn't had left him. Just maybe if he was stronger, Mane wouldn't had left him and Rejoice wouldn't be dead, maybe Rejoice would've gotten to see the sun and the outside again. But he never will, and it's all his fault.
The sun was about to rise as the demon finally closed his eyes and fell asleep.
a little while after the sun came up, the angel had woken up. he looked over as he felt the demon's body slump onto his.
The angel looked at him just sleeping on his shoulder.
He knew, he just knew that he didn't sleep at all during the night.
He knew that the demon wanted to get a move on in the morning but the angel stayed still.
He planned to stay like this until his best friend got the sleep and rest him needed more than anything.
The full morning hit but still then angel didn't move, he knew this demon better than anyone else on this server.
The angel looked at the demon peaceful face as he slept, he could see the eyebags and how bad the were.
By noon the demon was slowly waking up, he slowly lifted his head from the angel's shoulder, the angel unwarped his wings slowly.
The demon looked at him and asked.
"Egg why didn't you wake me up, we need to continue moving, we don't have time to wait."
The demon's voice was still raspy from sleep.
The angel looked at him this time really looked at him. And then he spoke.
"Wemmbu you're burning yourself out by doing this to yourself. you are barely sleeping or just not sleeping at all. If you keep doing this your going to get yourself killed, then you won't be on the server anymore. you are pushing your limits and you know it. Wem i'm worried about you, I can't lose you."
The angel's voice was gentle but firm.
The demon looked away from him, because he knew everything Egg said was true, he didn't want to admit it so he just sat there quietly.
The demon trusted him though, the angel was the only one who never betrayed him.
The two sat there for a while until the demon spoke quietly.
"Maybe we should just rest today, we haven't really took a day to just rest."
The demon said softly as he looked at the angel who looked happier after what he said.
"Yeah Wem, that sounds like a good idea."
The angel felt happy that the demon argee to just chill and rest even if it was just for today.
They both know that this peace won't stay for that long though..
