Chapter 1

pain.

Pain was all I could remember.

Pain was all I could feel.

It's all I knew. All I had left.

The room was small about 7 by 7 meters in length, the wall and floor were made of dark soules stone brick stacked securely ontop of it , the wall were drenched in scraps and blood seeping into the crack of the wall that layered the cold dead room, on the far end sat a opened widow shining the only light sources bleeding into the dark soulless room, in the corner covered in the voidnes off the room concealed in black sat a tall figure the sound a cracking and squeaking as the shuck in thier place. Their limbs long handing by thier side as their body riddle with tremors.  On the other side of the open widow sat Iguin thier eyes mask concealing most of thier face other then the small grin plaster on their face as they watched the figure in the conner shake and tremble uncontrollably. 

" how are you feeling today, little one?" Iguin ask as the leaded closer to the window as they tired to see the figure better. The figure frozen the low cracking and squeaking ceased.  The room was filled with silence and dread the room held the silence like a death trap, soon the sudden of a sharp snap! Echo thru the room like a threat as the figures head snapped up facing the window. They didn't speak,  the didn't move, their gaze held on to Iguin thru the clear glass protecting the man from what looms inside the room, he watched waiting for anything a sound, a movement or a sign but nothing happens the figure stared eyes locking onto Iguin with death in silence. Finally Iguin let out deep sign as they shuck thier head in disappointment, " i realy hoped we could make progress today but oh well" Iguin whispered as he moved towards the coner of the wall, soon a small crevice opened ou a light seeped into the room once more as the light shot in The figure turned suddenly pushing themselves deeper in the coner as the light hit thier foor alumanting it before it was quickly pulled once more I to the darkness. Soon a tray of food was slidden I to the room before the crevice was promptly closed behind as footsteps drifted away from the small room.  The Figure head slowly creakes down landing on the tray of food , fulled with a slab of what looked like deer meat or beef they couldn't tell anymore. Minutes past as silence filled the cold lifeless room till the slowly rust sound of clicking echo thru the wall as cold metallic claws reached towards the tray slowly the hand paused around the tray as the finger slowly snapp around the tray as they picked it up and returned to the conner  the cold metallic reached out picking up the slab of cooked meat as it slips from thier hand as they attempt to hold it, soon the figure slams the tray and food across the room the tray bending as it collides with the jagged stones as the food scattered across the room as the figure stood. As it rose the sound of clicking,  Snap and crack echo thru the small cage it finds it slef once more stuck in. 

" run .. rabbit..run..rabbit.. run .. run ...run. " a cold cracking voice echos out as thier body sways in place thier limbs dangling at thier side  beofre suddenly slamming it fist inti the stone cracking the ground with eases. As they did the froze once more eyes staring at the damaged with a cold intensity " hahaha...hahahahaha" a slow cold chilling laugh escape thier mouth as they thru the body into the wall as the slumped to the floor landing with a THUD! As their luagh filled the room, it was not one of joy, or sadness, it was one of pain, of hollow pain left in a lifeless pice of work. It let out deep soulless chuckle as its head shot back smacking the wall with enough force it looked like someone had took out a grudge against it. Int eh faintest of light you come make out a type of soft fabric wrapped around the figure it's once bright and vibrant blue covered in ash and blood during it like an old cartoon in the 19's. The figure remained motionless once more folled by the low sound of clicking and scraping exho from it celling once more. 

Across the halls Iguin walked away from the celling closing the old wooden door leading to the observing room he would watch them from, nothing new happend once more , the subject refused to speak and so much as leave the conner once more, thu it had seemed to stop clawing at its self this time , there's last time it ripped and torn at its arms till nothing was left other the metal that held it together, as he walked he was great by the floating cap and cloak of Sasaran, thier head drifted towards them as they walked closer " anything new?" He asked voice dripping with excitement,  Sasaran had grown quite fond of the subject Iguin had brought back with them from the festival all those years ago. Iguin shock his as he watched Sasaran cloak draped in disappointment  as he shuck thier head in disappointment " awww,  I was hoping for something new allowing me to pock and prod at them again." He said with a hint of amusement as they float beside Iguin as they walked further down the hallway, Iguin let out a amused chuckle before extending thier arm out

" Sorry to disappoint,  but they did turn to meet my gaze as I spoke but didn't move" Iguin whispered as hint of joy in thier words. Sasaran let out a small hum before as they opened the door for Iguin. " intriguing " he whispered before entering the room and closing the door behind them. In the room were to others brimmed caps  Restys, and her apprentice Inina who sat on the box near the widow as they swayed thier legs around like a child. " Restys, Inina, on what do I own the pleasure?" Iguin asked as they set down on the table in the middle of the room , the room was filled with crates and boxes,  spell crumpled and throw into corners with no second thoughts about them, it was a dull light room compared to the hallways which were nearly pitch black , the sight was an old bonded storage unite used to hold food for transport and other cargos before they would be shipped out or collected,  but it had closed down soon after the day of the pack and they had used it as a perfect cover for some of they new experiments and projects as it was used by unknowings and they doubt the Knights of morralis would ever think about them using Somthing like that, the ignorance was a blessing to them in many ways. Inina head snapped up upon her Iguin cold smokey voice as she wings their body of the small crate she had been sat on as she walked towards Iguin. The girl was wearing a small brown leather satchel by their side by the sound of the item it was Somthing soft and light weight as it slide around in the satchel as well as another item thu this one didn't shift as much and sounded like it was wrapped in paper tightly. Inina stopped a few feet away from Iguin as he leaded further back to get a better look at the younge girl her brimmed cap lead softly ontop of her head.  " Iguin " she greeted bowing her head slightly in acknowledgement " may I go see them?" She asked voice soft and numb as always , Iguin didn't need to ask who or what for as this became a common thing from the girl she had grown a habit after a while of meeting his new project he had grown quite fond of , she would attempt to give them small items and gifts sometimes it would take them others it would destroy them with no hesitation, it reaction would always be a mystery to them going from zero movement for a week to a sudden thrashing even once attempting to break the widow keeping them separated from it, luckily the magic in graved into the glass did not seem to break despite the ruthless slamming of the creatures rage, it had startled Iguin as they  were just thier to check in on them once more only to be meet with its relentless onslaught,  it had given up after what felt like hours before slightly returning to the conner were it laughed or cried for the rest of the day, they made no further attempts at contact with it the rest of day leaving be to its own devices. Iguin gave them a dismissing wave letting them go as it won't do much harm. She smiled before heading down the hallway towards their room.

Soon she reached the room it was small  room not allowing them to have much space out of fear they would use to momentum to small them self into the wall at one of thier many attempts to cause irreparable damge. Soon she pushed to old wooden door to the observing room open it old hinges letting out a long dramatic creak letting them know of thier presence before they saw them. The room was filled with a small low humming thu it was hard to tell what it was due to how broken and out of tune their voice was after the first few weeks after waking up when they screamed so much it nearly destroyed thier voice entirely, she walk toward the widow pressing her face close to the glass as she strained her eyes to find them, to her surprise they were stood facing the wall. Thier back turned to the widow, limbs were swaying by thier side as their shoulders shuck with a terrible force. She couldn't see what they were doing other then they had thier hands over thier head the metal claws digging into its side. She reached towards the glass before giving it a ferm tapping. Tap Tap. The noise stopped. Its seemingly froze in place before it's hands slowly slide down to its side letting a lound metallic snap echo as the joints pulled at each other to hold it self together.  It let out a low crack as its head turned to side to see the window. Inina smiled before giving it a small wave. In return it slowly turned it body to face the window it's metallic feet scrapping along the cold stone floors, taking that as a good sign Inina walked towards the conner of the wall Iguin had previously went to before closing the circle around a spell near the bottom of the wall as she did a small 4 by 4 cm crevice opened up as she pulled her satchel forwards opening up till reach for the times inside. Soon a small grey rabbit plush was pushed thru the hole, it looked worn down covered in holes and dirt,  but still surprisingly intact,  beside it was a small item they couldn't smell wrapped in a small layer of paper but not the ones they had been given before as this one was surprisingly thin. " here I got you theys in my time away I hope you enjoy them bon" she whispered as she broke the ring to the spell sealing the crevice again as they had learned leaving open was a bad idea as Bon had attempted to stick it hand thru a sunk its claws into Sasaran's legs nearly ripping it off entirely. They had given them the name Bon after realising they had a star struck time at remembering thier going weeks without remembering only to remember and then lose it once more. Bon stared at the items for a beat it's head tilting every so often before two metallic hand reached out to take them it slowly with more carefulness then it had with most item closed it cold metal finger around the small grey plushy lifting it up towards thier face out of Inina's view as it remained concealed by the shadows of the room . It reached another hand out slowly to the plushy it's air creaking and clicking as it strained to do so, it ran it finger down the soft seemes of the fabric . It's eyes remained fixed of the object in their hands before pressing ot softly to their chest as they brought It's head down it chin landing on the small plushy head. Inina smiled at the soft display Bon was showing towards the old warn down thing she found during one of her master outings. Soon Bon released the small plushy setting it neatly down into thier conner were other items they had been given and kept lied before reaching out towards the other side theh took into the metal hand bringing it close to them as they inspected the item thoroughly " you open it Bons " she stated watching as they turned towards the glass once more before reaching a hand out and unwrapping the item. Inside was small burger plain and basic with beef and cheese. " i know you don't eat much or any of the food Iguin gives you so I grabbed this on my way here. " she explained shrugging her shoulder as she brushed of the fact she didn't need to , despite throwing its food away nine times out of ten it did  they did eat enought to prevent themselve from straight up starve. Bon observed the burger as tho it might bite them before bringing it closer a biting down on it easy tearing into the burger with little trouble, the sound of the food griding against it teeth echoed thru the air before taken another bit and by long jt had disappeared Bon picked up the wrapper pressing it between it claws hands till it became a perfect ball before setting it by the small crevice. They paused their for a while eyes locked onto that part of the wall   waiting,  watching before eventually retreating back to the conner sitting down with a large THUD! As it's metallic parts scrapped against the wall living long shallow lines running down.  Bon movement ceased as it body went still. Inina watched eyes scanning for anything else, after a few beat Inina let out a dry sign before eventually leaving the room understand she wouldn't get anything else out them today. 

4 years later-

" captain Easthies , new on a possible Brimmed cap hideout " Luluci exclaimed practically darting into Easthies office her breath a lound huff as she attempted to catch her breath, in her hands was a report a few sightings of brimmed caps heading to old storage facility that closed down years ago. Easthies snapped his head towards her his eyes narrow at the mention of the Brimmed caps. " where?" He command his voice sharp " a storage unite call k-9 use to be own by unknowings but closed down long ago" Luluci explained handing the files over to Easthies hands, he took in with a swift movement as his eyes scanned the paper with a sharp attention. " any pointed hat near the location,  I don't it will be a clean fight" he examined voice tight and hard. Luluci straight before answering " yes master rollen, watchful eyes Ron , krullow and" she passed averting her gaze from captain Easthies " Master Qifrey and watchful eyes Olruggio " she explained knowing the tension between him and Qifrey seemed to have thu she didn't mean to ask knowing she would get a hard lecture by her captain. Easthies face darkened at mention of Qifrey the gears in his head turning as he thought. Easthies let a deep dread sign before turning his head towards face Luluci " send a request to them all.. we will need all the help we can get during this."  He command placing the file onto his desk as reach for his cap coated in a crimson red with wings plaster on its side  as he wrapped his cloak onto his uniform  as he ready him self for the raid.

" Qifrey!" Olruggio yelled rush out side a piece of paper clenched in his hand as he rush over to white haird man, he was outside doing a lesson with his student's,  Richeh and Tetia crouched down next to each other,  Tetia ranting about the spell and God knew what while Richeh despite her cold stone face listened with intensity. Further back sat by her slef book scattered around them in a neat pile was Agott her stone cold face sending chill down grown man's , she was so dedicated to her study she ended up reading and drawing 9 out of 10 times only to stop when prompted to. Qifrey head snapped towards Olruggio a smile forming on his lips as he watched the old man run towards him with such force but as he came closer his smile faded as his gaze landed on the pice of paper tightly around his clench as he skidded across the ground as he landed next to the man " huff* a messes from the grand hall" he exclaimed as he bent over trying desperately to catch her breath " grand hall?" Qifrey whispered as he took the aper from Olruggios hands spreading it out to read it. " The Knights of morralis request your help in a possible Brimmed cap sighting near your area" Qifrey muttered voice rising in disbelief. As he read the message. Agott head snapped up upon hearing Qifrey raised thier voice " Brimmed caps near by?!" Agott exclaimed rising ti her feet, discarding her book to the floor, Richeh and Tetia chatter ceased as they head turn to Qifrey in confusion. Qifrey sense his mistake hand the message to Olruggio before turning to his students " it seems me and olly are need for an urgent request,  but you have nothing to worry about we'll be back by the night" he exclaimed as he rose from his spot, " you said the location was near by" Tetia squeak pulling their knees closer to their chest " are you sure we shouldn't mive till it shorted " she asked voice warry Richeh stared at Qifrey her face blank but he could practically tell what she was asking . " ni no Tetia you'll be fine i promise, you'll be safe you have my word " he exclaimed as he crouched down next to the pink haired girl rubbing circles into her back trying to ease her tension. Richeh seemed to not believe Qifrey and he couldn't blame her she hadn't been one to take his word as fact unlike Tetia. " are you sure Master Qifrey " Agott asked her voice blunt and shallow as she crossed her arms raisng en eye brow at Qifrey, on thing he appreciated about the girl was her unshaken resolve tho it sometimes didn't help. " it'll be fine Agott,  we're only there as back up the Knights Of Morralis will do most of the heavy work " he resure giving her a warm and soft smile as he ended the lesson ushering them back inside as him and Olruggio got ready to set to the meet up location issued on the paper. Olruggio and Qifrey flew in silence for a while as they made it to the meet up location. Qifrey was overall tense his shoulder locked together as his gaze remained hard even after reassuring the girls. " your tesne" Olruggio stated voice blunt 

" I'm fine Olly" Qifrey reassured tho the tense shoulders didn't fall. 

" your not, your worried" Olruggio said bluntly as he turned to see his face.

"..." Qifrey averted his gaze not having the courage to meet Olruggios eyes, he was right despite what he had told them girl back there  he was worried, The Brimmed caps were no nearly threat that would go down no problem,  they were crule people one's who would gladly cross the line of morals if need be. The fact thier a possible Brimmed cap hideout near his Atelier scares him. For them to be so close and for him to not know, he fail.

" for the brimmed caps to be this close" Qifrey whispered pausing in the air as he spoke, Olruggio sense the tension stood as well turning towards the silver hair boy. Qifrey was frowning deeply looking down at his shaky hands. " you couldn't of known , their sneaky that the most dangerous part about them , there's nothing you could of done " Olruggio reassured placing a hand on Qifrey shoulder as he tilted his head to meet his gaze. Qifrey let out a low sign his shoulder slumping as the tension washed away. 

" your right thank you Olly "  Qifrey said softly as he gave Olruggio a small smile. Olruggio smiled as his hand slid from Qifreys shoulder they continued they journey to the meet up. When they finally made to the spotted several Knights Of Morralis and  3 other witch's talking among themselves " Master Qifrey,  Olruggio thanks for joining us! " Master Rollen yelled waving down the two as they felt to the group. At the mention of his name Easthies turned his head towards the two his eyes narrowing as he watched Qifrey land by " Master Rollen, Ron and Krullow   it good to see you once again. " Qifrey exclamation reaching a hand to shake Rollen hand his gave them a warm friendly smile before his attention turning the Easthies " Easthies " he stated  as he approach them offering a hand out " Qifrey " Easthies blurted shaking Qifreys hand hard before realising it " so what the situation?" Olruggio asked behind Qifrey shoulder as to hopefully provent any unnecessary tension between the two. Easthies attention snapped towards Olruggio the clear scowled vanishing going to more professional look " we've been able to pin down a possible Brimmed cap hideout, we are unsure how many or if it's still active. But we can't risk that. " he Examined voice blunt as he smalled his  capture pennant into the ground as he cleared his hand Signaling to Luluci to pass him the file . Luluci pulled the document from her bag handing it to Easthies hands. " but we do know this " he examined handing the document to Olruggio who took it hesitantly, as his eyes scanned the document his eyes widen before turning to Qifrey with a serious expression " Master randal and two other have gone missing " Olruggio whispered voice low and wary. Qifrey went Stiff next to his his lips pressed into a fine line  as his eyes hardened in disbelief " and you assume this is connected to the Brimmed caps" Qifrey asked voice wary and tense. Easthies gave him a ferm nod as he took the document from Olruggios hands and passing it back to Luluci. " yes and with proof but that not the main issue her now " he stated taking his capture pennant into his hand " we're going to move in it 1 cloak mark be ready " he stated as he walked away to talk to his other members. Qifrey walked over to a rock slumping down next as his dropped his head into his hands. Olruggio sense he need sometime to to think went to join the others talk about what they have been up to.

with the Brimmed Caps.

" hello Bon " Inina greeted wacing at the small window in the observing room. The room was still dark allowing them to still remain concealed in the shadows as they seemingly hating it when someone saw them yelling and attempting to rip them apart before clawing at themselve ripping onto them self until I've being stopped or going motionless once more. It the conner Bon sat their metallic legs sticking out into the light as they watched from the conner. In their had was the grey rabbit plush Inina had gifted to them hoping to ease their mind more, it's metallic claws gently clamped around the item as it pressed its softly to their chest as the sound of clicking and snapping echo theu their joints. Bon head pressed heavy against the cold stone as its head scraped against the wall. Bon stared at Inina with what most would assume hostilitie but Inina had learned to know as that being Bons default face, Inina laughed before approaching the small crevice opening up as she waited for Bon to approach. Slowly bon rose from his conner the sound of metal scraping across each other before the sound of heavy footsteps steps approaching with a delay in the sound like a broken record.

Soon bons  hand reached to opening but they made no attempt at forcing their hand into the crevice instead they stood their watching carefully and waiting.  Inina smiled as Bon stood wait to reserve the items she pulled out a pot ink mixed with blood and a burnt piece of paper before sliding into Bons hands. " can you draw me a pyro ball?" She asked kneeling down as watching fron the crevice inbhooe not to discourage Bon from moving. Bon took the items dipping it's finger in the cold ink the ink dripped down slowly as a cold cracking feeling washed thru their body their head drifted towards the paper as their finger hovered over the paper as the thought. Soon the paper was slidden back thru the crevice what was once a blank sheet now had a wonky but usable spell with the sigal of fire in the center it's outer ring left un closed for Inina to safely inspect. They had been slowly attempting to get Bon to use and understand magic, much to Iguin excitement Bon took a deep rooted fascination to magic excepting the small picture book Iguin had offer whitch was a huge success as They would tear the items Him or Sasaran would offer to them with no second thoughts. Inina using her pen closed the spell and watched as a perfect ball of fire hovered above the paper " well done Bon ! Here" she exclaimed reaching into her satchel and pushing a handful of sweet thru the opening tho to Bon it wasn't much as their hand was two times her size Bon took the sweats as the sound of crushing echo thru the wall as they happily eat the sweets. " m..more?" They asked the voice a deep echo and breaking " no sadly but you keep this up and I'll get more." She apology before chuckling, behind the wall she could hear the sound of metal scraping across the bricks before a low Thump! Vibrated thru as Bon sat against the wall it's back facing Inina

" hurts" they exclaimed voice low and wary. After getting more vocal with her and Iguin they had complained about pain tho never fully exclaiming were or why before going into a raging fit attempt to attack them and become hostilitie for the rest of the day.

" I know Bon I wish I could say it'll be over  but I can't " she whispered pressing her back to the wall as she spoke. Despite how she was outside theys wall inside with Bon she was peaceful almost sympathetic to the subject knowing this was forced onto them and now had to live with it for the rest of their lives

" name??. What is my name?.." Bon asked raisng their hands clutching the head in their head as they spoke.

" Bon Bon the Hare " she whispered her voice Emotionless as she spoke., truth be told  she had no idea of who Bon was before behind place in this cage that was the closest to home they could remember. 

Bon eyes slowly closed as their body slumped against the wall Signaling the end of their conversation  Inina slowly stood closing the crevices behind her before exiting the room as the door creaked behind her. " Inina " Iguins cold voice called to her from the hall. Iguin looked as he always did his eyes mask covering almost all but his mouth, his cloak swaying behind him despite their being no wind in the old storage facility.. " Iguin " she stated turning to meet his gaze " how's are little friend today" he asked his tinged with amusement. Inina gave them a light shruge before walking away knowing Iguin wouldn't press for Questions or go after her, to focused on his little project he's always talking about. Soon she reached the grand door into the open room they had called the meeting room or lounge inside Restys was sat her purple brimmed cap bent down concealing some of her features. " Inina it's time to leave" Restys stated voice blunt and dry of any emotions telling Inina there was no debate here. Understanding Inina gave her a silent nod as she approach her masters side. Restys smiled as she watched her apprentice stand by her side waiting patiently for her to move. After finisher her drink Restys stood adjusting her Brim cap before placing her hand of Inina's shoulder Signaling it's time ti leave. Wrapping her cloak around the two they both vanished into the air like they were never there to begin with. 

" hey Bon! How are we today!" Iguin yelled as he approached the glass Bon was once again in the corner the body once again concealed in the shadows their metallic legs extending out into the light as the sat there watching as Iguin approached the window

" fin..e" Bon stared as its head smacked against the brick wall.

" that's good to here my dear " Iguin exclaimed clapping his hands together in joy. " anything new you want to say today" he asked tilting his head dramatically as hus mask his his features from Bon.

Bon raised it head clicking as it's joints straine to lift it " Out." Theh exclaimed voice distance and broken.

Iguin hummed in confusion before reaching inside his cloak pulling out a thick leather journal filled with tags sticking out of its pages as he flipped thru the pages stopping on one filed with recent notes. " out. Out were?" He asked curiosity tugging at his words . Bon body began to shake it joints clanging together as, Bons head scraped against the stone tiles sparz fling as a ear bleeding sound rings out. " out!" They exclaimed voice rising as anger Built inside. It's head snapping up towards the glass with such forced it would of broken and normal humans neck. Iguin stared in both amazement and intimidation as Bon staed daggers into his soul. 

" you know you can't leave this room, it's for your own good" he examined voice low as if he was talking to a child. Bons hand raised hight joint snapping before it crashed against the force the force vibrating thru the storage facility "OUT!!!!" bon yelled the voice breaking as they rose joints screaming against each other as they reached the wndow Iguin took a step back as they approached with more speed them they seem capable of. Soon their clenched first smacked against the wall enough to break thru if it was a regular glass. The other hand claws digging into the space. " OUT!!! LET ME OUT!!!" they yelled voice dark and full of malice and anger that would of killed him if weren't for the glass separating them Iguin realising that this was getting out of hand he reached for his palm quinn pulling a incomplete spell out before placing it on the window as he closed the seal. Soon a lound screech hit the air as Bon sealed back in pain the body tweaking arms glitch in there place as the clutched it's head and chest mouth open wide as they retreated into the shadows. Their body clashed against the bricks metal on stone grounding with a terrible force. Soon the spell fell to the ground the ear bleeding screech ceasing as Bons body collapsed to the ground, their metallic body trembling with shuck force the sound echoed thru the halls. Iguin stared lips pressed into a thine line as he watched their body press into each other like a scared child. " i think that enough for today" Iguin whispered picking the spell off the floor as they exited the observing room into the hall the wooden door creaking as it closed behind them. Bon remainded trembling in the corner the metallic hands clenching around it legs as they pull them close. Burying it's head into its knees as a small sobs escaped their voices.  

Outside hiden in the bush laid Easthies   Luluci,  Master Qifrey,  Olruggio,   master rollen , Ron , krullow and six other Knights Of Morralis. As they watched the entrance of storage facility. As a cloaked figure entered the storage unite, even from this distance they could make out the large brimmed cap on their head they were carrying a box full of what sounded like glass items. The group watched as the metallic door slammed shut behind them. " we move in. " Easthies stated rising up from the bush as his grip around his Capture pennant tightened. Olruggio nod Signaling to Qifrey to follow as they moved in " you  Luluci , Qifrey and Krullow go back entrance " Easthies commanded as him and the others dart towards the entrance. Qifrey noded not wanting to make a fuss during such a serious event. As the brimmed cap closed the door the box in their hand shaking. The door suddenly burst open. A gasp escaped their lips before a long paper banner wrapped around them capturing them as it did the box in their had slipped thru the fingers " No!" Rhey expected as the box collided to the foor opening up as the context inside spulled across the floor " enough Brimmed cap!" Easthies commanded as another bameer wrapped tightly around them preventing any chance of escape. As Easthies and the other Knights Of Morralis secured the Brimmed cap master Rollen approached the box wanting to see what was so important to the Brimmed cap. The colour drained from his face as his hand reached for a glass container the fell from the box " Captain Easthies " Rollen whispered voice shaking as her turned towards them. Easthies turned his head towards Master Rollen as he called his name His eyes admittedly falling to the jar in his hand. His eyes darkned as he saw the contents inside. The jar was filled witha thick crimson red liquid. As a small item floated inside. " WHAT THE HELL IS THIS" Easthies demanded pulling on his Capture pennant causing the Brimmed cap to kneel to the ground gritting their teeth as the stared dagger into Easthies eyes " what do you think Pointed cap?" They spat voice dripping with smugness a toothless grin plastered on their face. Easthies not having patience for their shenanigans reached into his Cloak for the memory erasing spell. On knowing what he was looking for the smile fell as panic covered they face " wowowo easy I'll tell!" They exclaimed voice rising as panic clawed at their voice. " what's is this" Easthies commanded pointing to the box they were in possession of " organs. From one of their new toys. They told me to retrieve them and drop them off here for what? No clue. " they muttered turning to the jar in Rollens hands " that right their is it belive a kidney or liver" he told gesturing with his hand behind their back to the jar. Rollen felt sick tug at their stomach. As he still the jar down not trusting them self to hold it any longer. " take them outside and secure them there's bound to be more" Easthies commanded to the other Knights Of Morralis. As he signal for Rollen and Ron to follow him as he adventured deeper inside.

" in here " Luluci gestured towards the wooden back door to the metallic unit. Olruggio approached turning the handle to makesure it wasn't locked before pushing it opened. The room was dark the only light behind the light from the door. Qifrey eye narrowed as he attempted to see in the dark to makesure their was no one ahead. " it's clear" Qifrey stated as they enter thru the back door closing it behind them. The room they had entered was a storage room filled with boxes and crates, Qifrey slowly reached for the boxes pulling them slightly so he could see inside. Most were filled with metallic parts, some fabric and others medical materials such as bangages and vial of herbs. Qifrey raised his eye brows in confusion the medical supplies made sense theys were the brimmed caps but the fabric and metallic parts made no sense to him.

" hey olly, recognise any of theys parts?" Qifrey whispered turning to signal the beared man to him, 

Olruggio leaned down reaching a hand to examine the context inside. Pursuing his lips. "Part for machinery,  what machinery is can't tell. " he muttered as Luluci approached to see what they were doing. 

" would explain the fabric " she muttered to her slef more then thum reaching a hand to her chin. 

That explain the fabric and metallic parts but not the Medicine in some of the boxs " but what about the medical supplies " he asked confusion clear in his voice.

Luluci looked uncomfortable as the answer was bond to be unpleasant and wrong as was everything with the brimmed caps. Soon they advance deeper into the storage Facility steps slow and Quite to help keep their element of surprise. As they adventure deeper in the come approve a large metal shutter door. Qifrey eyes scaned the door seeing if there was anyway to open it without a alerting the Brimmed caps of the ambush tho he doubt their presence hasn't been made knowing stealth Was never Easthies strong suit as be would attack and ask questions later.

" Olly help me check this room out" he whispered waving Olruggio over. Olruggio crouched down next to Qifrey brushing his hand over the steal shutter as he looked for a lach or handle to open it. " it's looked shut from the inside no way of opening it without someone hearing " he stated as he pulled his is pen from his cloak as he moved to the wall next to it and began drawing " wall breaking seal" Qifrey stard smiling at Olruggios cleverness. As he closed the seal with wall around the seal burst into grains of sand making way for them to enter. Luluci nodded allowing them to enter as she checked around for anything else. As Qifrey and Olruggio crouched thru the wall there meet wre another storage room this one however was stained with blood. As they enter Qifrey admittedly grimaced placing a hand to cover his mouth as the strong smell of Blood filled the room " blood hell" Olruggio muttered as he took covered his mouth at the strong smell. The room was drenched in blood as it covered the floor , walls and some of the crates. " i to that Olruggio. " Qifrey whispered pushing himself up as he wondered the room, as he turned the corner he was meet with 3 machine suits sat on the floor " well I know why there's fabric" Qifrey told Olruggio as he searched the other end. There infront of him was a pink and purple rabbit,  a grey and white  sheep or lamb and a human looking one with a red and yellow suit with a hat on it tho it wasn't a witch hat he could remember.  As Qifrey got close the smell got stronger making him gag as the smell of mold hit his senses. " what the" he muttered as his eyes scanned the costume characters they were old covering in dust and practically swimming in blood it clinging to the fabric and metallic joints. He brochures Olruggio voice cut thru " Qifrey..." he called. Qifrey paused he disents turning around his breath hitched as he saw what layed in Olruggios hands. Clutched in his hand was a pointed cap it's once bright fabric splashed in blood the edge of the fabric torn. In his other was a shorter more damge Pointed cap hafe of burnt off. Olruggio looked deeply worried and disturbed as he turned to meet Qifreys eyes. Qifrey's stomach twisted as his head suddenly snapped to the robotics characters behind of him his eyes wide with horror as his hand reached towards the sheep character l. Sha as the name tage around its neck called. As his finger clutched it cold damp fabric of the suit he tuggs it down with little force. As its head popped of clashing to the ground with a thunk as blood leaked down spilling across the floor " Qifrey what are you!? .. oh my.. oh god" Olruggio yelled before turning his head away from the scene. Inside was a corpes. Old and rotten left to marinate in the coffen that is the suits Qifrey breath hitched as he  scrambled back as he gaged heavy from what he saw. " oh God. " Qifrey as he gaged pushing himself away from the horrors he just witnessed.  As he bend down the context of his stomach spilling across the cold tiles. Soon he feels a warm hand press against his back rubbing circles into his shoulder blades as Qifrey finally spilled his context of his stomach. 

"Easy .. easy take your time " Olruggio reassured as he rub small circles into The snow haired man leaning against a set of crates. " I forgot how vial the Brimmed caps can be." Qifrey stammered as  he wiped his mouth clean. Olruggio turned grimacing at the blood soked site inside was a mutilated corpes their arm was twisted and mailed like a stick the bones piercing thru the skin as it layed their stuffed into the small and tight crevice of the suits. Blood drenched their feature and the part of the body they could see. Whoever it was died a horrible death no doubt by the Brimmed caps hands. As they exited the room no longer able to stomach what they uncovered they were meet with a clearly disturbed Luluci " are you to alright?!" Luluci exclaimed walking over to the two. Qifrey still looked wores then wear his face pale his eyes red from vomiting. Olruggio had swung his arm around the man supporting then man as he looked seconds to fainting in the room.

Olruggio swallowed a lump in his throat before speaking " we.. " he paused as he tried to find the best way to word it " we found out were thoes missing people went " he whispered his normal stone brave and blunt demeanor was now warry , horrible and completely broken apart as he spoke to Luluci. She opened her mouth to speak but firmly closed as the realisation hit in her face going a cold white as she risted the urge to gag. " understood.  I'll inform Captain Easthies of it " she stated his voice blunt but even know they could hear to horror in her voice. 

" we still got ground to cover" Qifrey exclamation as he stumbled forward. As much as Olruggio wanted to yell at the man to take care and slow down. But he couldn't for once was right they couldn't slow down now not here in the middle of a dragons den. Soon they advance deeper into the storage Facility to much of their surprise they had yet to see any memenlber of the brimmed caps. This wasn't a small facility,  on the contrary it was massive making it highly likely there was going to be multiple members of the Brimmed caps but no. All they had found was crates full of random items   Fabric,  metallic parts,  medicine,  food and even one full to the brimm of ink pots.  The Fabric and Metallic parts made some sense as theh had found thoes robotic animals things, but why would they be making thoese? They didn't seem strong. He'll they didnt seem to be able to move at all the joint rusted and melted together. The food , no clue sure they could be holding surplus here so they didn't need to leave often but each on had them same patch items. A chunk of beef or lamb some bread and water.  The Medicine supplies and equipment made some sense to Qifrey as the Brimmed caps were know to do inhuman like things to other and themselve. So it didn't surprise them if they had good knowledge on medical items and skills unlike them who were unable to know due to past incidents. 

Suddenly Qifrey left his foot suddenly sink. 

" huh!" 

Olruggio and Luluci snapped around at the noise started at the sudden panic coming from Qifrey after minutes of silence. 

Qifrey's eyes widened as a spell activated under his feet. 

A trap! How foolish of him not to consider there would be some.

Before Qifrey could complain further. He body fully sank into the ground the floor closing up after him.

" QIFREY!!" Olruggio yelled.

Qifrey landed with a heavy Thump! As his back smacking against the solid stone. Qifrey grunted as the pain register in his back. His eyes blinked as he adjusted to the poorly light room he found himself in.unlike the hallway he was previously in the room he found himself was early dark. The only light beeing the large glass window leading into a room with a wooden door in the side. Qifrey's eyes slowly blinked as he pushed himself off the floor growning as his body scrapped against the floor. 

The first thing he noticed was the room was small about a 7 by 7 in foot long the wall were made up a dark stone like material layered simalr to how bricks were. The second was the lack of a door. His eyes slowly scanned around the room noticing how there was nothing other side the large window in the room.

" were-" he muttered before a sharped sound cut thru the air. Qifrey's breath hitched as he pushed himself up off the floor spinning around towards the sound. In the corner sat a figure. Qifrey couldn't make out their features other then they were large and the proportion were disturbing wrong that made Qifreys stomach turn. The figure remained motionless in the corner making no attempt to attack or even acknowledge Qifreys presence before he spoke. Despite being concealed in the darkness Qifrey could practically feel it staring at them making his fight or flight hamer into his skull. " hello?" Qifrey asked voice low and wary as he stard at the Figure in the corner. 

....

Silence.

Qifrey let out a deep sign before he turned back his eyes scanning the room he had fallen into. as he did he could hear the low and rapid clicking sound emanating from the Figure in the corner as it watched Qifrey move around examping the room with efficiency. The room was covered in dents , cracks, and blood stains running from the walls to the floor as he traced his finger over a large dent of the wall his mind flash to the horrors he had seen before making him winces.

Then a a cold metallic hand clamped down next to his head, spinning around towards see, only to be meet to with a rabbit staring into his soul, the blue soft fabric haven been warn down and dusty, down its head was a large black stick its ears draping down its head swinging lightly as it stared down at the silver hair man, its humanoid eyes staring deep into his soul its mouth hung open allowing Qifrey to she the blood stains clinging to its metallic parts. It's fabric body ended around it elbow torn at the end to reveal it metallic arms. It's head twitched as it stared at Qifrey its eyes scanning Qifrey slowly. Qifrey remained frozen it the creatures grip its hand cold and lifeless wrapped around his throat but it wasn't painfully, it left just enough room for him not to be suffocate him just.. hold. As Qifrey watched the creature tilt its head a low metallic snap creaking thru its ears flopping against it head. He noticed its eyes weren't metallic, they were real, flesh and organs, the corner of its eyes were red and blood shot. Suddenly the cold metallic claws retracted from his throat the sharp shaking sound of its joint clashing together as it back away, soon creature returned to the corner its body slumping down with a heavy thud!

Qifrey remained frozen in places minutes offer the creatures retreated back. Before he slump forward letting a  deep sign out of his throat.  As sweat dripped from his forhead as the immediate danger ceased. His eyes drifted back to the corner it's movement haven nothing but ceased.

Qifrey watchs for a while before returning to his search running his hands against the gaps in the bricks laced around trying to find a hole or false walls suddenly his hand dipped into the wall. Bingo! He smiled down as he pushed the brick tile off as a small 2 by 2 hole opened up. Qifrey crouched down as he inspects the small crevice slowly he enter the small hole his head bumping against the hash stone making him winces as he realised his hat must of fallen off as he fell thru the trap. As he exited the over end he released he was in the other room opposite the glass, the observing room. Qifrey looked around his eyes drifting to the two things in the room , one the old wooden door in the corner leading mostly into another hallway, the second was a spell carved into the bottom of the wall, slowly he crouched down running his fingers over the Ingrave stone the spell was old mostly created during the day of the pack as he noticed the old sigals making up the spell. 

THUD! 

Qifrey jolted at the sudden noise  his body shooting up towards the glass, his eyes landed on the metallic fist slammed into the glass, surprisingly it wasn't cracked. In fact it remained impressively intact despite of the overwhelming force applied which he knew could definitely have broken his bones if directed to him, on the other side of the glass stood the blue bunny its head dropped down as it strained to look thru the glass. It left arm remained by its side swaying lightly. It right arm was pressed heavily against the glass separating them two its body twitched and turned as its eyes remained fixed on Qifrey stiff shoulders. Qifrey watched,  waiting to see it the rabbit would do anything else, after  a beat its dosnt move its eyes tracking Qifreys movement with curiosity?, fear? He couldn't tell.

" what?" He whispered mentality slapping himself when he rembers this things might not even know what he's saying, or speak. To his surprise the blue rabbit pulled it first away from the glass slowly its joint straining to do that simple motion before taking its finger lightly against the glass pain the opposite of what they did earlier Tap, Tap twice. It's head turned to Qifrey its eyes scanning Qifrey for something he couldn't decipher. Tap ,Tap  twice once more, this time with more force and urgently, Inching it head closer to window. Despite knowing that it was important to regroup with the others but his curiosity got the better of them as they approached the glass pain, " you want something?" He asked tilting his head to the side. The rabbit seemed to nodd it head thi very loosely the pain fighting to support its head. It's iched closer it body cms from making contact with the glass pain it relied its hand back for Taping once more. TAP TAP! the glass shook violently with every tap as it became more frantic. " what is it?" He asked not understanding what it was that the light blue rabbit wanted. TAP! Tap! TAP! As it ignorance grew so did the the tapping it rapidly increased it hands twitching as it became more desperate.  " I'm..  sorry I dont" he pasued . His gaze turning around his eyes scanning the wall behind him. His eyes puase on a brick tile sunken slightly in. He turned back to the rabbit who has seemed to have ceased its tapping its gaze following Qifrey. His point to ward the brick tilting his head towards it, " this?" He asked voice raised slightly.  The rabbit tapped once more lightly and softly this time. Taking it as a yes he approach the sunken tile his fingers running thru against the broken tile. When he noticed it was push able he pressed it fully.

CRACK!

 A spell is actived. As the wall behind him opened up. Feeling the sudden air change Qifrey wips around  to see the  the large bunny ich from his face. It's hands swaying by his side.  It eyes remained fixed onto Qifreys one good eye. It's back arch as it loomed over the white haired man,  its mouth opened wide. Slowly its demands reaches up to Qifreys faces its cold metallic hands brushing a strands from his eye before slowly retreating. The blue haie turns to the door in the corner its movement stiff and jagged as it stumble towards the door its hand clenching around its handle before tearing the door apart the hinges falling off  as the door comes stumbling  to the ground. The rabbit paused staring at the door clattered to the ground  its head twitching as it watch the door come to a holt it paused fir a while its body twitching and shaking before it head turned back to the hallway. It's metallic feet scrapping against the hard wooden floor as it exited into the hallway its head clipping again the door frame. 

Qifrey watched as the massive rabbit walked away it body shaking like it was cold, before its disappeared round the corner the sound of its metallic footsteps scraping across the floor echoing out into the distance. He blinked a few times as he tries to process what just happened. Qifrey face dropped into a awkward situation " I believe i may have, ' messesd up' " he whispered realising the gravity of the situation. As he peaked thru the opening thru the hallway.

" QIFREY!!!" a shout cut theu the air making Qifrey jump at the sear intensity. Qifrey sheepishly turned to meet the  voice calling his name  running down the corridor was Olruggio his face full of relief that made Qifrey winces in his hand was Qifrey's point cap showing his theory of it haven fell when he accidentally fell into a trap  beside him trying her best to caught up to the surprisingly fast Olruggio was Luluci her red crimson cape flowing behind her. " Master Qifrey!" She called stopping inch's from him while Olruggio practically tackled the poor man " WHAT THE HELL QIFREY!!" Olruggio yelled stealth had seemingly gone thru the window. As Olruggio wrapped his arm around he could practically feel the wind being knocked out from his lungs " Im sorry Olruggio realy" Qifrey tried to reassure  much to Olruggios annoyance " SORRY?! OH MY, QIFREY!! YOU COULD OF DIED FOR HEAVENS SAKE!!" Olruggio muttered voice filled with anger and concern as he pulled back to see himself " im sorry Olly truly,  I had no idea there would be any trap" Qifrey whispered as he raised his arm up in surrender. Olruggio let out a deep sign the grip on the man's shoulder slowly fading as he let go.  " your an idiot " he muttered under his breath as he sets Qifreys hat back onto his head. 

"I'm glad your safe Master Qifrey " Luluci exclaimed.

" im am too but we have a new problem at are hands" Qifrey muttered  straightening his cap.

" and what might that be?" Luluci asked her capture pennant clanging against the ground.

" theirs more than Brimmed caps here" Qifrey exclaimed turning to were the blue rabbit had vanished off to.

" like what?" Olruggio asked sensing something was up. 

" rember those costumes we saw.." Qifrey whispered voice low as his mind flashed back to the horrors they witnessed.  

Olruggio visibly grimace at the memory his face going pale as he gave him a soft nod.

" well I just saw another one... " he paused taking a deep breath before he continued " and this one was moving." He stated 

" what?.." Luluci asked visibly conflicted as she tried to wrap her head around the information.

Olruggio turned to face Luluci eye brow raised " you said this was Brimmed cap hideout not a lab right ?!." He asked voice warry as he questioned the Knights Of Morralis.

Luluci's head snapped up meet Olruggios eyes " that what the intel said but I now doubt that was the hole truth " she whispered voice scanning around taking every little snippet of information.

" are you hurt? You said you saw another one?" Olruggio asked his eyes scanned Qifrey looking for any signs of injuries. But to his relief there was none. 

" im okay.. I kinda ended up stuck in a room with it..." he muttered his eyes returning to the room he was just in.

" and it didn't hurt you??. Luluci asked taking a step closer. 

Qifrey waveing his hands infornt of him sensing slight warry." I know it sound weird it is.. but it didn't. If anything its seemed... confused.. curiosity " he satiety his dropping to a whisper 

Luluci walked past the two catching their attention. " we can't stop and think about that now we have a task to complete" she exclaimed  walking further down the hallway. 

Olruggio and Qifrey shared a silent signal before they followed suit eyes scanning around as they proceeded with great caution. Now they know they weren't just Brimmed caps lurking around in this storage facility. Olruggio wrapped an arm soft around Qifreys shoulder making sure he wouldn't disappeared from his slight. 

With Bon. 

They walked the halls their metallic feet scrapping against the hard wooden tiles. It's metallic joints shaking at it strained their body to the fullest its hands wrap against the hard stone brick walls as it uses it's strength to support its heavy body.. the drain saturated blue fabric.  Clinging the its metallic parts of its suit as it roam the halls it steps echoing thru the galls as they twitched and shook. It's eyes frantic as its scanned ahead focusing on every little detail and crack at it came to a crashing holt infront of another wooden door. It's eyes remained fixed on the small wooden door, its dark colour   the signs of wear and tear thru out the small cracks and signs of the wood expanding. Slowly its arm reached out creaking as it's cold metal fingers closing around the small metallic handle before slowly pulling it open with much more care and softness then it had with its wooden door leading to the stone cage its known for years. 

As they entered they were meet with the same small room they had been wearing into for years. The room had more stuff then theirs did a shelf in the corner old and wooden. A desk with piles of paer, some with spells, some with words and some with drawings. Bons blood shotveyes scanned the room slowly the head snapping around as they mapped out the room.  Stacked ont he shelf was books, trinkets, and items mostly gift from Inina similar to them. But unlike them they seem to keept them out of reach from them or wanted to priority the quality of them items. Their eyes landed on the larger glass window pearing into the small room behind the window. Slowly the approached the window it body thudding against the wall as it bumps into the wall.  In the dark room sitting down facing the wall back turned to them, this one was grey, and white. It's hand torn smae with its legs up to their thigh similar to Bons a there ears was a bale skin tone similar to a yellowy colour.  A golden collar around the neck with a small tage with the letters Engraved " SHA" as the sound of Bon bumping against the stone wall the sheep like costume head snapped up a soft rumble echo thru as they pushed their body up. Turning to towards the glass..  their body was covered in tears and damage wires pocking out and fabric warn to the brink of repair.  Their eyes widen at they meet Bons blood shot eyes as they creaked forward stopping inch's from the glass. "bon? " they whispered voice slured and strained as a hand reaches out planting a hand against the cool glass. Bon watched their eyes never leaving theirs as they strained their arm to follow suit with cold metallic claws touching the cold window. "shA" they creaked voice dark and broken as they pressed the mean to the glass. Sha followed suit pressing lightly at the glass separating them. 

" fRee, Question " Bon asked pulling back head twitching as it steps back a large THUD As their feet planted against the hard wooden floor. It's head snapped around scanning around till it lands on the lose brick tile Bon stumped over clenching its fists tightly in a ball before punching at the wall pushing the loose tile back activating the spell, at the sound of the spell activated Bon ripped around a sharp Snapp cutting thru as the torso wiped around. SHA took a heavy step forward its feet clanging against the wooden tiles as they creak under the new found weight. Sha turned to meet Bons eyes once more.  Slowly she reached out a pulling the drain blue rabbit into a small hug. It's metal hands rubbing against the soft fabric of Bons body. Their head resting against their shoulder as they hugged Bons softly. Bon didn't move they didn't return the gesture their arms remaining by their side, head snapped upwards and solid like a beam. 

" thank YOu " SHA stated. Voice muffle with kindness and gentle as they hugged Bon with so much carfulnes it didn't seem wrong. 

Soon they released their grip around Bons taking a step back as they watched them with such softness and innocent it made something warm in Bons chest spread despite their being nothing left. Bon didn't say anything more thier expression reminds blank , jaws hanging open as their turned to face the door once more. Head twitching sharply as them stumbled towards the door their clawed hands clamping around the handle before pulling it open once more.

" bOn?" SHA asked stumbling forwards hand extended out words towards the blue rabbit exiting out the room. Bon didn't speak they moved with a death in silence which screamed danger.  As Bon vanish from sight once more SHA's ears drooped down as they stamgered after the Rabbit. SHA knew Bon wasn't the type were silence meant something good, It mean two things ever the were scarred, or about to hurt someone. SHA chased after the blue Rabbit their metallic feet THUD angst the creaking wood floor.  They hadn't been out of that box of room for years haven memories every nook, scrap, cracks, and blood stains lining the wall. SHA's body shook as they forced themselve to to follow suit getting a feeling they would need to hury to catch up to the Blue rabbit before they hurt someone.

With Easthies and the others

"CAPTAIN EASTHIES!" Master Rollen called from. The hallway as they opened a shutter door to a room. They were covering their mouth and grimacing at the sight. Easthies widen his head around to the voice his eyes narrow and dull as he walked towards Rollen capture pennant tight in his hand. " what is it?" He command rasing an eye. Rollen didn't speak shaking hours head as he gestured to the room he had just opened. Easthies eyes narrowed as he stepped infront of the door as Master Rollen stampered back gaging heavy. Easthies froze at the sight. 

The room was a cold metallic white. Lining the room with tiles lining the floor covering what once was pure white room was blood. It reached every nook and corner in the large room , up the walls,  the floor to the center. In the middle of the room stood a metallic table facing the door. To the side stood two large desk, full of jars, tools , bandages and other medical supplies which were illegal in Pointed cap standers. A  drain was sitting in the corner of room draining the blood from whatever horrific act they committed in this room. The room looked like a good bath. As Easthies enter the room he was hit with the strong stench of blood not fresh but still horrible,  the table had restraints lining were arms and legs would go. Easthies eyes scanned the room, his anger boiling as he watched the gruesome sight. As he stepped closer to the work table lined with tools and tissue.  The room looks just a cutle as horrid the Brimmed caps were, it showed the extent of their ideals would go.  

His eyes landed on a small stack of papers drenched in blood, he approached forward  his gloved hands peeling off the small pile of paper  his eyes scanned the small documents his finger smugging the blood off the paer as he peaked down at the document. Some of the words were worn by blood and years. It was detail support something about " cheating death " it had instructions about manually removing person's heart, brain, lungs , tissue and major organs it made him sick. It's made his anger boiling at the idea of someone doing something like this to someone.. innocent people who knew nothing or even members of his group. He couldn't make out what exactly they were trying to do.. the paper was torn and drench in blood waring the context of the paper down.  His place the paper down practically chucking it across  the soaked desk. He exited the room his finger drenched in blood, boots misted with blood.  His eyes were narrowed cold and hard as they turned back to group. Master Rollen and Ron were next to each other face twisted and plae as Rollen explained what he saw. Ron looked in raged visibly tense and revving in rage. 

" Captain Easthies.." a Knight of morralis called walking over to Easthies hands clenching tightly around their capture pennant.  Easthies eyes remained fixed on the ground of a sec before snapping up " Continue searching there's bound to be more here.  " he stated voice returning to a cold and blunt tone. As he walked away the Knight of Morralis nodded Signaling to the other to follow suit. They had encountered five brimmed cap plus the one at the entrance,  two of them put up a decent fight but we're apprehend soon after two others were caught with surprise subduing them with no problem,  one the oddest one a brimmed cap with once again a box in them had didn't fight them slowly lowering the box and raisng their hands up in surrender.  Once them brimmed cap was subdued they examined the context of the box seeing once more bloody fabric, ranging in purple  blue  grey, red and white they were all soaked in fresh blood when asked them didn't respond they remained quite eyes hallow and empty it made something in Master Rollen shutter sensing a wave of danger he never felt often. Easthies had order the other Knights Of Morralis to secure them never the others removing any accessories to marieals 

The scanned the rooms entering mostly empty storage rooms and areas holding a abundance of items ranging from reasonable to confusion. Easthies was scoping down the hall when a voice cut thru " Captain Easthies!" Luluci called jogging towards him Easthies ripped around his gaze landing on the three heading towards him as he slammed his Capture pennant into the ground freeing his hands , " Luluci, Master Qifrey,  Olruggio " he staed giving them a slight nodd. Qifrey smiled nodding back as he bent over trying to catch his breath once more as he ran to catch up to the women. Olruggio nodd patting Qifreys back as he caught his breath. " the rest of the area is clear.. " Luluci sated eyes landing on the extremely pain Master Rollen and Ron who looked seconds from vomiting. 

"we captured about five Brimmed cap members nothing strong or higher in the chain of command like we suspected " Easthies stated  resting his hand on his chin as he thought.

" well. I can say this.. there's definitely something else in herw other then the Brimmed caps. " Qifrey staed standing up as his breath finally caught his breath. 

Easthies eyes meet Qifreys his expression hard as he turned to him. " what do you mean." Easthies commanded.

" during are investigating i feel into a trap, as we were under the impression there was none. I ended up being teleport to a room. In said room, was a dull blue rabbit thing. Looking similar to what we found in a storage area. It was hostilitie or atlease didn't engage me at all but it did trick me to open the door for it." Qifrey dtaed waving his hands around as he spoke.

" What type of idiot let's a random " blue rabbit thing" trick them to release them?" Easthies commanded voice filled with irritation as he pinched the brimm on his noise in frustration.

" in my defence I did hit by head when I feel and was just trying not to be killed by it. It was tall and incredibly strong no like to kill me if it decided to attack me." Qifrey exclamation trying to justify his action. 

Olruggio and Luluci watch as Easthies and Qifrey went back and forth feeling at each other like normal.  When a sudden THUD ran out behind them.

The group ripped there body's around to the sudden sound. Qifrey pulling his pen out ready as Easthies pulled his Capture pennant into his hands. Olruggio pulled his palm quinn out flipping to premade spells, Luluci got her Capture pennant ready.  The others around them got ready pulling their plam quinn out and readying the Capture pennant. 

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Creaping from the darkness a long heavy metallic foot broke out from darkness it joints clanging together as it pressed hard Against the stone tiles. Then other as it tugged deep into the ground. Peeking from the darkness its head nearly hitting the roof of the hallway stood Bon. Their large frame hunched over as they watched down at the group infront of them. It's once dull and dust worn down blue fabric was now drenched in blood as it coated there body like it took a shower. It's metallic hands were practically swimming in thick chunky blood as it pooled onto the ground with something clenched tightly in it's right hand, they eyes were blow iy blood shot eyes scanning the ground with a unfocused gaze. It body was more worn a torn the Qifrey had first noticed. Like before Bons mouth hug open blood clinging to its joints as a broken gargling sound echoed thru the halls.  Slowly Bon pulled its arm back its joint shaking and clanging as it did so before flying forwards throwing the item clenched in its hands there rolling onto the floor stood what made Easthies and the rest stomach drop. Was a lung freshly torn. Easthies stammered back away from the thrown organ as his eyes shot up to the blood soaked rabbit.

" the hell?" Olruggio whispered visibly gaging at the sight Qifrey always knew he had a weak stomach another reason he was the first to pull away from the earlier sight not wanting Olruggio to react the same way. 

Bon's head snapped towards Olruggio making him flinch  as its eyes landing on Olruggio small frame compared to them. It's body shook and twitched as it stood theire its arms swaying by its side as it just watched with a sinking feeling. 

Qifrey slowly lowered in pen tucking it inside his satchel. As he slowly took a step forwards.

Easthies head snapped towards him his free hand reaching to pull the snow haired man back. " What are you doing?!" He muttered trying not to raise his voice as to not startled the blue rabbit infront of them.

" trust me.. it didn't attack before I do t think it will now.." Qifrey whispered voice soft as he pulled away from Easthies grasp as he took another warry step forwards. His hands raised as to show he's no harm.  Bon's head snapped towards Qifrey its body shaking violently at the sudden movement, its neck creaking softly as its neck strained to support it head. Qifrey takes another step forward his boot splashing against the blood spilled across the ground. He doesn't approach any further, he keeps his hands held out palm visible to the Blue rabbit. 

"Heyyyy there.. " Qifrey exclamation voice soft and low. 

Bons titled its head its ears smacking against it head as the sway infront of them. Bon doesn't speak.. doesn't move... doesn't react ... they just watch... their eyes tracking the smallest movement of the snow haired man. 

" im Qifrey.." he sated placing his hand to his chest a friendly gesture to the tall beast.

Bon remains motionless as it watch Qifrey thru their blood shot eyes.

" im not here to hurt you.. we're not here to hurt you" they stated gesturing to the group behind them waving their hand from their chest to the group. 

" fREind QUEsTion " Bon shutters voice dakr, droopy, shakey , and distorted.

Qifrey visibly flinch at hearing the Blue rabbits voice. It was broken a mangle of tones and staitce.  Easthies trip around his Capture pennant tightened at the sound of the rabbits voice his body tensing. 

" Y..yes.. friends" Qifrey whispered taking a cautious step towards the Rabbit.

Then the rabbit laughed.

 "hahahahahhHahahahhaHAHAHAhahahaHAHAHA. " Bon let's out a distorted laught pulling its head back as it laughed its ears flopping against it head. Mouth open wide as it laughed  

Qifrey stammered backwards sensing a looming danger radiating off the Blue rabbit. Olruggio pulled his arm towards him his grip tight and shakey. Luluci sends Easthies a confused gaze wait for orders or anything from her captain.  

Bons head smalled forward it body making a sharp CRACK! As it dose, Bon's ears floppy by its side.  Bons body shock as their laugh died down breaking into a low deep distorted static sound. Bon then froze. Joint seazing up preventing them from moving. It's once blood shot and blown eyes were now dilated staring into Qifreys eye.

Suddenly Bons lunged.

Hand shooting out to grab Qifrey.

Qifrey reached for his pen as Bon came lunging at him!.

Cold, metallic hands inch's from his throat.

Olruggio hand shot out trying to reach the fabric of Qifrey's cloak trying to pull him back from the immediate danger!!.

Luluci remained frozen have not had enought tine to full process what just happened.

Easthies yelled an order but it was muffle in Qifreys ears.

Suddenly a grey blur slammed into Bons side derailing it from reaching its claws around Qifreys neck.

THUD!!!

Bon's body clashed against the hard stone brick walls. Their metallic parts scrapping as its head slammed hard Against the wall disoriented. Bon's Boby was pushed hard against the wall as two metallic hands remained clamped on their shoulder stinging any attempt of them pushing back. Bon shook their head trying to gain their composer as it slammed jolted their head. It's blood shot eyes shot up landing on the bright green eyes of SHA. SHA was pining the blue rabbit against the wall its joints staining against their hard thrashing. Bon let out a distorted gargle thrashing against SHA'S iron grip it hand shotting up to trying and pry its hands off it but SHA did not bug pushing harder against Bon's shoulder causing them to let a distorted wince as pain shot thru their joints. 

" sTOp!" SHa echo out mouth opening as they spoke their voice was soft and kind as they pushed Bons further against the wall stopping their attempt at reaching the ground on their left. 

Bons head snapped back its mouth flying open as it let out a ranging noise as its claws reached out digging deep into the fabric of SHA'S arms.

Bon's eyes were wide filled with Burnjhg Rage when meet SHA'S calm eyes.

Suddenly Bon pulled its arm back before it CLASH! against SHA'S chin pushing the sheep back as its head shook violently, SHA stammered back its body swaying from the sudden brutal force its hand reaching up to steady it head. But Bon's moved fast before she could regain focuse, CLANG! Bones first collided with the chest of SHA pushing them back Bon was relentless in its rage its clawed hand digging into the fabric of the arm befote tossing them inti the darkness which they entered from, bon's body heaved as it stared down at SHA their head looking up with confused eyes at Bon, ear lowered and a small sound similar to a wince echoed thru the metallic voice. Bons cockrd it arm back ready to deliver another ferm hit to the defenceless sheep. When sound a sliver white cloth wrapped around its arms halting Bon's attack.

Bon's body jolted so the clothes wrapped tightly around its arm preventing it from coming down on the sheep. Bon racked its head around 140 degrees, It mouth open wide as its eyes lock on Luluci, she had wrapped her Capture pennant into order to ceases Bon's action. Her hand gripping tightly around the handle in fear as she realised what she did. Bon let out a small distorted Chuckle finding her reaction amusing before his hand pulled forwards grapping the clothes stranded to keep his arm from coming down before pulling suddenly making Luluci lose balance as she lifted ibti the air before slammed intot he wall to the left of Bon. Easthies acted fast casting his Capture pennant to bon's torso. Bon reacted faster dodging his attempt at subduing them as he attempted to pull it back however Bon clamed it feet down onto the the silver white cloth preventing it from moving. Easthies let out a hiss as bon turned towards the group once more.  Bon lunged forward towards Easthies it metallic claws clamping down around his neck pulling him off the ground close to the roof, Easthies's hands sprung up gripping around the metallic joints sof Bon's arm trying to pry it off as his oxygen supplie feel.

Qifrey active his water spell it shooting out a long thin beam of water strong enough to cut stone. It nick Bon's leg making it buckle under its weight. Bon head snapped towarss them rasing as he chucked Easthies towards them. Qifrey let out a gasp as Easthies came flying into him punching the air from his lungs. Olruggio gritted his teeth his eyes drifting from Qifrey and Easthies to the blue hulking rabbit smacking awake a Knight of morralis. He flipped thru his spell his hands shaking as Bon turned to him. Sense the danger he quickly active his fire spell as bon came lunging forward. Bon came rolling down as the spell hit their body their flames catching easily against the fabric lining it's body Bon let out a small squeak as it thrashed around on the group its joints scraping against the ground as it attempt to put out the fire. 

Bon trahsed its body heavy as riddling with pain as its hand swat it's arm behind them its claws nicking the soft fabric of its skin soon the fire died out. Bon remian on the ground it's knees scraping on the stone ground as it let out a draging breath its warn dull blue fabric skin was now crashed around its back and side of its ribs its head, slowly it body rose it feet clamping down on the hard stone as its joint strained once more its body swayed as ut stood. Its joint clanging together as it steadied it's self once more. It's head snapped towards Olruggio it's blood shot eyes wide and raging. Olruggio cused under his breath he watched it rise and turn towards him, voice hard and tense " Come on of cause its fire proof " he stated voice low as he backward further from the rabbit. Master Rollen got behind Bon and activated a spell. Suddenly a large THUD vibrated thru the wall as a large golden smacked against Bons side. Bon shock its head quickly recovering from the hit before acting, Bon dodged the Golders attack fast before grabbing its head and ripping it off clean destroying it with smiple ease. The golden crumbled by Bon's feet. Bon's head snapped up towards Master Rollen, letting out a large distorted grunt before lunging forward to him Rollen let out a shreak! As bon hand grip his writing hand beofr he had time Bon slamed its foot  to his chest ripping his arm clean from his shoulder. The skin teared and cracked as his was sent flying inyo the floor blood dripping across the ground. Rollen screamed in pain as he clucnhed the fabric of his arm close to him trying to stop the bleeding. Bon let out a small chuckle pleased with the pain they've caused before tossing it off with little to no care. Watch Full Eye Ron stepped closer to Rollen trying to stop him from bleeding out. Bon attention snapped around to Olruggio once the sound of prn scraping on paper caught his ears. Olruggio had shook as he attempted to ready another flame thrower spell. Before a metallic hand Slammed! Into his rip.

Crack!

Olruggio gasped as the wind was locked out of him, blood spilling from his mouth as he toppled to the ground. Olruggio let a small grunt as ge pressed a hand to his rips. ' Dammit definitely broke a ribbon or two'  Olruggio cussed to himself. As he let out a grunt as he strained the body to respond to move.

Bon watched as Olruggio crawled away towards the wall trying to stop himself from worsening his injuries. Their didn't move,  their  didn't chase, their watched, their eyes once fulled with rage and hatred was now dull and empty.  Before he turned back towards Easthies as he stood his Capture Pennant into the ground. Blood trickled down his forhead, his hair a riddle mess of curles and blood.  His eyes were dark and narrow as he stared off into Bon's soul filed with rage and malice " damm monster your going to play!" Easthies commanded readying himself. Bon watched his eyes widening lowering his body as he prepared to lunged forward.

" Arhga" Bon let out as two metallic hands clamped around it's neck, pulling them into a choke hold, Bon screeched as squearmed in SHA'S hold their hand coming to claw and scratch violently against their arms but SHA didn't bugg holding on firmly lifting the 480,986 pounds Rabbit off the ground. Bon thrashed some more kicking its metallic legs back both SHA'S but SHA didn't move their grip tighting as Bon grew more desperate. " TrAtiOR!!" Bone squeaked voice breaking as their vidy twitched and spashed. SHA tilted thier head to meet Easthies widen and confused eyes. Easthies's grip around his Capture pennant loosened as he lowered trying to make sense of the situation.

SHa pealed their head back to Bon shifting their grip to get a better hold on the Blue ragging Rabbit. Soon the pulled one hand back shifting into one hand to hold the rabie Rabbit. Soon the metal claws digging into the lose set of wire sticking at the end of its neck. Bon freezes their hands clenching tightly into the fabric of SHA'S arm thier eyes wide full of fear. They let out a small shallow squeak. And wince something like a silent pleaded. SHA freezes guilt swimming in theor eyes before pulling the set of wires out. Bon head shot up mouth open wide. Mouth open wide as no sound escape body tensing up before going slack in SHA'S arms. Eyes wide and still moving compared to its body.

SHA slowly lowered Bon's body to the ground joints screaming at the new found weight. Bon remainded monsters its arms drapping across the cold stone, head slumped eyes tracking SHA'S movement with sadness swimming thru its blood shot eyes.  SHA shifts from being behind them to being face to face with Bon, their eyes soft and kind as they raised their hand to cress Bon's face, bon closed their eyes as SHA pulls the motionless body toward them. Their arms wrapped soft around Bon's chard and beaten body. Their body pressed safely around SHA as she hugged them almost like they trying to shield them from the world.

Easthies watchs this display confusion eminent in the face as they lowered his Capture pennant not sensing the admittedly danger is no longer present, his eyes landed on Qifrey who remainded on the ground   hat discarded across the ground meters away. Their was blood dripping from the small cut on his cheek, his hand rubbing the back of his neck as hissed in pain clearly in pain from the crashing. " can you stand?" Easthies asked voice not having a hint of worrie or concern as he stepped closer to Qifrey picking his hat up and handing it to the snow haired man. Qifrey snatched the hat from Easthies hands rolling his eye at his words before pulling himself up from Ground as pain shot thru his back from the force of Easthies hitting into him at full force. Still Qifrey stood brushing the dust from his white cloak and clothes before resting his hat to his head. " yeah.. I'll.  Be fine.." he muttered under his breath as he stumbled to help Olruggio up from the ground. 

" can you stand Olly?" Qifrey whispered voice soft as he slung a warm around Olruggios waist fulling the beared man up from the ground in protest as he let a string of cures as the sudden movement tugged at his side.

" no." He breathed in voice raw and thick with pain.

Qifrey's gaze softed as he adjusted his grip to cause the lease amount of pain to the man. As he steadied Olruggio,Qifrey's eyes drifted across the room to the others. 2 of the Knights of morralis were injured on was smached full force by the Bleu rabbit sending them to the wall breaking there shoulder blades, another was bleeding from their mouth from being hit at their side but still standing, Luluci was knocked unconscious by being posed by the rabbit tho didn't seem to have any wears injuries Qifrey could see. Ron had some scraps and blood but Master Rollen had it wores his arm haven been torn off from his shoulder and tosses aside Ron had torn a strip of fabric from his cap tieing it to the shoulder to try to slow the bleeding and for him to die from blood lose.

" what are we going to do about thise things?" Qifrey asked Easthies following their gaze to the two robotic mascots sat on the floor, SHA had pulled Bon closer to the wall further from the the group Bon was lifeless in SHA'S grasp, SHA ran the hand thru the soft fabric around Bon's floppy ears trying to south the Trembling Rabbit in their arm. their head was resting against SHA'S shoulder back turned to the group of Pointed caps they had moments ago attacked. 

Easthies didn't answer Qifrey his eyes reminded fixed on the two huddle in the corner. SHA'S ear twitched before their gaze landed on Easthies making them tense at the sudden notice. SHA didn't speak. They pulled their left arm back from Bon's back. Before waving it towards Easthies not in a hostile manner but a soft kind manner which further confused Easthies on the matter.

" take them to the cells at The great hall.. they mostly have information on what the brimmed caps were up to here. And if they don't they might know more then they think " Easthies commanded turning to the other group of Knights Of Morralis who nodded as they curiosity approached the two wrapping their Capture pennant around the to ready to transport them.

Qifrey eye's narrowed as Easthies payed no more mind to the situation walking towards the exit as they got ready to leave. 

For some reason Qifrey found himself staring at Bon their body limp in the Knights Of Morralis hold its eyes frantic as they were separated from the grey sheep. Who put up no fight to their movements.

Something was wrong about how they moved, how they reacted,  they were some golem.. they felt real.. alive..

The thought made Qifreys stomach turn and twist his mind flashing back to what he had saw in the storage unite earlier. One of the costume characters being identical to the Grey sheep that stopped the rabbits rampage.

" you thinking "

Qifrey blinked before his gaze turning to Olruggio in his grasp.

" what are you thinking about Qifrey?" He asked voice strained as he forced his feet to move as they exited from the storage unite.

" im thinking... we may want to stay around for a bit longer." Qifrey whispered as his eyes turned back to Bon and SHA,  beside him he could hear Olruggio let out a deep sign in default.

" welp might as well as it won't be able to walk for a bit" Olruggio staed bluntly earing a chuckle from Qifrey.

As that they walked off outside were more arrived taking Olruggio and the others to the healing spire.

Outside the storage unite 

From the sideline watching at the Pointed caps exited from the boulding crouched hidden by the over grown vegetation was Iguin. His mask swaying in the wind as his eyes tracking the movement of the group his eyes narrowing when he saw them pull both Bon and SHA out of the building, bon was drenched in blood which made a small smile form on his lips as he noted Bon had attempted to murder the pointed caps in their attempt to subdue them, SHA no surprise was spotless haven not been the violent type allowing Iguin to examine them with little to no backlash. Bon however since walking up was iver extremely shy and timid or angry and violent. 

Iguin watched as they hauled the two away watching as years of his work were ceased by the pointed caps. 

" what do you plan on doing now..." Sasaran croaked voice creaking as his cap and cloak float behind Iguin out of sight.

" wait." Iguin whispered a smile tugging at his words as he backward disappearing into the forest.

" they'll survive and return home eventually we just have to wait." He reassured as he walked past Sasaran, Sasaran let out a small chuckle before following them deeper into the forest sliping away from The pointed cap who had no idea there two most curles of the Brimmed caps was in thier reach.

At The Healing Spire.

"What the hell hit you strong enough to crack 2 ribs with a clean break like that!" Sinocia asked flabbergasted by what she was seeing. As she pulled tightly at the bandages wrapped around Olruggios waist. Olruggio let out a long hiss as the pulled pressed against the bruised area around his ribs. Sinocia had beable to treat all of Qifreys miner wounds and had moved on to the breaded man who suffer a bruised rib as well as to others being broken cleanly which was heavily unusual in most injuries.

" well I wasn't really expecting to get stomped at by a metallic rabbit " Olruggio bit out thru stained breath as Sinocia treated his wounds.

" A metallic rabbit?!" As deadpanned a hint of amusement of in her words as she let a small breathless chuckle.

" yeah a big blue metallic rabbit with an anger problem!" Olruggio muttered voice filled with irritation as the memory , Qifrey couldn't help but smile at Olruggio ponting about a blue rabbit if he hadn't been their himself it would sound like the man was insane.

" what?" Sinocia chuckled " were you two fighting a rabbit golem?" She asked jokingly as she finished treating up Olruggios wounds.

Qifreys faces darkened at Sinocia's words averting his gave from Olruggio, Olruggio eyes drifted onto Qifrey's frame as he felt something in the air change.

" I don't think what we encountered was a golem.." Qifrey whispered voice low and dripping with something Olruggio couldn't read.

Sinocia came a hault as she sense something dangerous swimming in Qifrey's words. " they.. what was it?" She asked warry and curious in her wording.

Olruggio's eyes narrowed as he waiting patiently for Qifrey to answer.

" Olly " he started tho his gaze still remain else were. " remmber those weird items we found in that.. " he paused taking in a shaky breath " storage area behind the shutter door?" He asked voice low and deadly quite as if no one was supposed to know.

Olruggio tesnes slight his face speaking lowder then more words could count.

Sinocia raised a brow to the two witch's " what are you getting are Qifrey..?" She asked voice low as she back away from Olruggio allowing him to kindly lower his shirt fully covering the bandages.

" we found medical supplies, fabric. And what Easthies and the other reported..." Qifrey whispered turning to meet the twos eyes. 

"I don't think thoes things were simple golem...but something worries." Qifrey muttered voice thick with dread.

Olruggio's eyes widened as he realised what Qifrey was implying standing up abruptly which earn a hard yell from Sinocia.

" if your implying what I think your implying.." Olruggio whispered voice low and filled with a silly pleaded which made Qifreys heart break. 

Qifrey gave q slight nod watching as Olruggio collapsed back into the bed were he sat as Sinocia patched up his wounds.

Underground In The Great Hall.

SHA sat in the large stone room they had been placed in after being taking in by the red hat people. Their eyes drifted from corner to corner taking in the larger room it was bigger then any of them room the Brimmed caps had placed them in. It was surprisingly clean unlike their rooms which were stained with blood and mold, SHA sat in the middle legs crossed beneath them as they took in the room. In front of them sat a metallic door. Small and would no doubt break if she gave it a a good hit but she didn't finding the idea of them leaving such a easy escape unrealistic believing their was a trap ready for them if they dared though of escaping. Behind the door they could hear the sound of yelling. 1 no 2 maybe 5 people whispering among themselves not paying mind to SHA'S presents behind the metallic door. 

In a another larger stone room sat Bon who lay slumped i  the corner haven manage to regain control over their body after SHA had tugged at the wires protuding from the fabric of their head connecting to the metallic neck. Bon had woken up pissed thrashing around the larger room raming their shoulder into the wall making the guards outside become worried before the thrashing ceased Bon let out a deep ragged and drained sound that remind them of a heavy exhausted breath before they slumped themselves back into the dark corner. To be honest with themselves they were tired have escaped, freed SHA got revenge on a brimmed cap member, then attacking that group of witch's before getting attacked by SHA then lit on fire and then body disabled. 

Their eys tacked the movement of shadows walking pass counting, 1. 2.. 3..4..5. Noting down which voices matched the footsteps,  were they went ,how long they vanished for, tone all stuff that most would never search for but they did even without  even seeing the people outside they had already built a solid idea on many of them. One being no doubt the man they had slamed into the white haired one.. Bon paused as their eyes landed on the door as their mind replaced the events of the day?.. hours? They had no concept of time.. not now..  or ever.. Time wasn't something they had ever been given not anymore.. maybe at tone point they did but.. now.. its pointless to wonder. 

"You want to do what?!" Easthies blurted fist slamming against the desk his eyes wide , mouth open wide.  As he stared at both boys infornt of him, Olruggio was leaning against the wall arms crossed as he gave Easthies a simple shrug when he sent him a glance. Qifrey was stood close to the desk hands tumbling with hit cap as it lay in his hands. " i said i want to to talk to one of them. " Qifrey stated blankly as he locked eyes with Easthie.

" ARE YOU MAD!!' Easthies asked wavaing his hands up completely baffled by what he was hearing.

" Easthies,  I just want 10 minutes that's all." Qifrey exclamation shifting his hold as he held a arm out as he talked.

" Qifrey,  have you forgot that less then 5 hours ago you, me ,Olruggio and many others were just moments away from being killed by thoese things!" He spat voice heavy with venom as he narrowed his eyes at Qifrey.

" I did not forget" Qifrey stated voice going low as he paused to collect himself " i have a theory.."

" a theory?" Easthies questions raisng a suspicious eye brow at Qifrey's words.

" and what might I ask is your theory Qifrey ". He asked voice filled with hostilitie that made Qifrey want to punch the man infornt if him.

" I believe these are victims of forbidden magic not mindless beast but people who can't tell the difference between us and the one who hurt them". Qifrey sated averting his eyes down to his cal his finger gripping the fabric tightly as his face twists into a frown.

Easthies raised an eye brow clearly not believe Qifrey's words making the snow haired man sign " i believe they attack because they believed we were the ones that hurt them " he exclaimed extending a hand out as he spoke.

" but were not " Easthies dead paned crossing his arms.

" yes but they might not know the difference between us and them all they saw were others with caps and wands, in their eyes that makes us no different to the Brimmed caps" Qifrey muttered clearly reaching his patience. 

Easthies eyes narrowed averting his gaze from the snow haired man to Olruggio who had been oddly quiet during the conversation.

" and you  what do you have to say regarding Qifrey's theory" Easthies commanded rasing a hand and gesturing to Qifrey before his hand returned to the desk. Olruggio let out a long drawn breath before pushing himself off the wall and approaching Qifrey's side  he quickly sent a glance to Qifrey before turning to Easthies. " i believe Qifrey's theory i makes sense to what he had told us before regrouping with you " Olruggio sated voice low and blunt making Easthies's eyes narrow at him.

" and what other information is that?!" He demanded turning his head towards Qifrey. 

" during are investigating I fell into a trap and ended up in a dark door with no door and nothing but a window pearing in, during the time their i cma3 face to face with the Blue rabbit that attacked us, tho the attitude from there to when we all saw it was completely differently, it was slow, cautious it seemed confused and warry of me then anything. But during when we meet them they were hostile aggressive and clearly not caring." He exclaimed giving Easthies a summary of what he had told Olruggio and Sinocia at the hospital. 

" I believe the reason they didn't attack was the fact I had dropped my cap before being teleported into the room." Qifrey sated. Easthies paused the gears in his head turning as he thought over what Qifrey had given them. Easthies soon let out a deep huff before straightening his back his hand reaching for his cap before setting it on their head. " fine but I hope you don't plan to have a tea party with the rabbit?" He asked sarcastically as he walked around his desk and over to the door.

" actually i wish to speak to the other one." Qifrey told voice smug as he flashed Easthies a small smile.

" hello there!" Qifrey  chimed voice soft and cheerfully as he enter the room. Unlike Bon's room it was fairly lit. In his hand sat a small carbord box filled with items as it shook in his grasp. SHA's head snapped up ears pointing at the sound of the new voice. The were sat in the center of the room legs crossed as they lined up a row of small pebbles they had picked from the ground. SHA tilted thier head in confusion as Qifrey closed the distance setting the box down to his left before joining SHA as he sat.

" you don't mind me joining you?" Qifrey asked a soft warm smile on his face.

"nO. Please Go aHead" SHA spoke caughting Qifrey off gaurds as his head reared back his wide with shock before falling back to normal.

" oh you can talk?" He asked general curiosity tugging at his words. At that SHA answers by simply nodding the neck creaking against the movement. Qifrey smiled understand as he shifted closer sense no danger from the worn down sheep. His eyes scan thie body landing on the ware and tear across their body similar to Bon their arm and legs were missing the fabric around them revealing the metallic endoskeleton of the creature. It was no different to Bon's and Qifrey believes that the same with the other mascots they had saw.

" im Qifrey it pleasant to meet you what might your name be?" He asked extending a hand out towards the sheep making Easthies tense as he watch from the doorway. SHA'S eyes drift to Qifrey's extended hand thier eyes wide as they sated in disbelief at the gesture. Slowly their arm reaches out taking Qifrey's hand with remarkable gentleness its cold hands making Qifrey shiver at the touch. SHA paused before slowly shaking it as if scared to put more pressure on it. Making Qifrey giggle , at the sound of of Qifrey's giggle SHA abruptly stopped making Qifrey paused as his eyes drifted back to SHA. SHA eyes were locked on Qifrey their ears going up and down slowly before they tilting their head.

"YoU GiggLeed?" SHA spoke thier voice breaking and altering from high to low. Qifrey smiled before nodding " yes I did, I found the fact you shake with such softness " he explained voice soft and warm. it makes SHA pause. 

Soon SHA retracted their hand raising g it to their eyes before  placing it by their side once more, Qifrey understanding that it's enough places his hand into his side. "SHA..mY Name iS SHA the SHeEp" they said leaing forward as they spoke making Qifrey lean back out of instinct on seeing Qifrey real back SHA quick retracted their taking their hand into their fiddling with them almost nervously, the action was cute in Qifrey's eyes it reminded Qifrey of what Tetia would do when she was nevours about something.

" it okay  you didn't do anything wrong I just reacted due to the interaction with the blue one" he reassured patting his hand in the air as he spoke to SHA, at the mention of the Bon's action earlier SHA looked down at the group guilty avoiding Qifrey's gaze. Qifrey watched this display not understanding why SHA had reacted this way but chose not to voice it seeing the obvious nerves swimming under their skin? Fabric? He didn't know so he switched to the next part of his talk, he shifted turning towards the box he had carried into the room with him he extending his hand into the context of the box rummaging in before pull out a small red leather book, as he did SHA'S head snapped up eyes widen at the book in Qifrey's hands before be could speak SHA'S hands were inch's from him startling him slight at the sudden movement but SHA was aiming at him but rather the book in his hand seeing this Qifrey slowly placed the red book into SHA'S metallic hands, as his grip left the book SHA'S slowly closed their fingers softly around the book like it would crumble into dust if their not carful enough soon the pulled back placing the book to their chest almost like they were protecting it from them. " MiNe" SHA stated as their ears pin back almost like an animal when their scared or angry. Qifrey raised his hand up at SHA'S words " okay.. I not going to take it im just returning it" he explained and that was part of the truth he had brought the items with him hoping to gain more of the Sheep's trust. SHA eyes shifted between the book pressed softly into the chest and Qifrey who remains a safe distance. The look like their thinking like their debating something as thier head twitchis slightly making Qifrey more confused but before he could ask SHA reached he hand out the book still in their hand offering to Qifrey.

Qifrey paused his eyes shifting from the book in SHA'S metallic hand to their eyes. " QuesTion?" SHA asks voice soft and low like a child. Qifrey blinks a few times not truly expecting to get so far with the interaction  but he smiled and gave SHA a reassuring Nod as they waited for their question. "do YoU kNoW wHO Am I?" SHA stammered thrubeats body twitching as they leaned closer towards Qifrey once more as they looked at him with warry eyes. 

Qifrey paused his eyes widening at the question. He in truth did not under stand what the Sheep had asked they had told them their name as Qifrey greeted them but was now asking if they knew who they are? It made no snese it contradicted what was said earlier so he answered honestly " your names SHA is it not?" He asked not understanding their request. SHA realed back ears pinned down as they cluched the bookbint their hands whatever they had wanted was clearly not what Qifrey had said as it seemed to send them into a mood the slight was sad as the sheep had original been quite calm and alomost thankfully for Qifrey's presents but was now gloomy and sad. Qifrey shifted closer before speaking "  you like reading ?" He asked lowering his head to have a better look at SHA'S face. , at his words SHA raised their head before pulling the book out from the chest as they examined it with utmost care. After a beat SHA nodded angling the Book towards Qifrey to take. Qifrey raised a confused eyes brow at the sheep racing a hand to his chest " you want me to have a look?" SHA eagerly nodded in clear excitement. Qifrey couldn't help but chuckle at the shear excitement SHA was showing compared to its lifeless body they showed a lot of emotions,  SHA paused once more before their shoulders shock a small soft noise broke theu the teeth it was quite distance and quiet but Qifrey could clear as day her the soft giggle coming from SHA. Soon he slowly took the red book from SHA'S opened hands placing it with utmost care on his lap before he opened it. The book was a book filled with scribbles and drawings they weren't great drawing reminisce of how a 5 year old would draw the drawing were in ink which was unusual for a kids drawing soon he turned the  ext page and was meet with a drawing which made something in his heart twist.

The drawing was a coloured drawing compared to the others before hand, the drawing was one of field filled with colourful dots which Qifrey assumed were suppose to be flowers, their sat on gass were 5 figures. One was a boy with black hair and red suit with the words Bonzoo written under, next to them sat a other figure with bright orange hair and green and white clothes with the words Bill under them the character resembled a clown in some way, there a few inchs away sat a Ponk and purple bunny there wees smaller and more brighter then the Blue one they had meet they were leaning against who Qifrey assumed was the blue rabbit as he saw a scribble of blue with a pair of rabbit ears protruding from it. Under the Purple rabbit written surprisingly neat was the name Banny. Under the blue rabbit the name was seemly scribbled making it impossible to see what was written and finally stood next to the two rabbits a hand placed on the Blue one was a drawing of a grey sheep which represented Sha. The drawing was more detailed then the others and there was a feeling of importance radiating from each stroke. Qifrey paused before he turned towards Sha who was looking down at the drawing sadness swimming in there eyes as the slowly reached a hand out towards the page resting it over the other three of the drawing. " you drew this?" He whispered senses they was something deeper regarding this picture.  SHA didn't speak just gave a silent nod as their thumb rubbed against the drawing of the Purple rabbit, something unknowing clawed at his heart as he watched SHA show an emotion he could decipher. Soon he turned the page hoping to eases the clear sadness of SHA. The next page was another coloured one with 2 people draw on it they were seemly running in another field,  in the background was a small forest and what seemed to be a small well, both people seemly were younge kids,  almost  one was wearing a light yellow shirt with a pare of grey shorts , covering their face was a sheep mask grey in colour a hand pointing out infornt of them as they turned towards the other pulling them along, the other wearinga white dress and grey legging with a pair of brown soft boots was another kid there face covered by a blue rabbit mask they seemed happy allowing the another to pull them along with little trouble. In there other hand was a small plushy which Qifrey recognised as the teddy they had retreated from one of the rooms,  the teddy was an old worn down Grey rabbit. Sha seemed happy as theire ears pointed upwards as their hand rest softly in their lap as they scanned the drawing.

Qifrey paused as SHA seems to relax as Qifrey flipped thru the book to them, the book was nothing more then a children's  drawings but it seems to please the large Grey sheep greatly slowly Qifrey set the book open on the ground catching SHA'S attention. " im sorry dear  but I have a question to ask" Qifrey apologies sad that they had to break this peacefully atmosphere. SHa let out a dry sign before nodding at Qifrey words Qifrey pasued shifting in his spot beofre he spoke " the people that hurt you." He began watching as SHA visibly tensed at his words their back once hunched now straight as they lock eyes with Qifrey. " what did they do to you and the .. blue rabbit?" He asked voice quiet and warry as he spoke understanding he was entertaining dangerous water once he didn't know if they would be safe to cross. SHA tensed at Qifrey's words their head twitching more rapidly their pinned down to show their displeasure this was definitely a touchy subject Qifrey knew that and he was unsure how they would react, SHA'S body slumps after a beat. " Bon"  the choked making Easthies titl his head in confusion have been watching this display " bon?" He asked voice dull as he repeats the words spoken. Sha lifts their head back towards the man making him straightin under the sudden gaze. " BOn tHe hAriE " the shutter before turning their head back to Qifrey. 

"BeAt TwisT, tOrn, LaB RaTs fOr TheM To PokE tO ThEir LIkeinG WE GReW AnGry AS tiME paSsed SOoN BoN brOke. SHA pauses as a hand reached to tug of the fabric around their head. Giving a light tug before thier hand slumps by their side as thier head creaks as they meet Qifrey's cold blue eye " bON BrOke, thEy chANgeed , BoN CaNt TeLl ThE diffrents BeTweeN yOU oR tHEm, ThEy DIdNt ALL WAys BE LIke...THat! " Sha pauses once more waving a hand out towards Easthies almost pointing to the over room were Bon was being held in, Easthies stiffed his capture pennant clanging against the stone floors as he turned to the sheep in pure shock. He hadn't let the sheep know were Bon was but somehow they had accurately pointed out towards the rabbits cell. The tension in his body was clear making Qifrey sense him a questionable look not knowing what had made the man tense so much but his attention was drawn back to the sheep as it waved it's hands out once more " cuT aNd rIPp THats WhAt wE CaN FirSt REmember ,  All BoN KnOws , ThEY TESTED Us, sEeIng IF wE could StILL FeEl PaIn, We COuLd ... wE knOw NoThIng Much oF Who WE wEre AnYmOre. " SHA chokes their ears pointing down are their lifeless eyes slowly drip down to their metallic hands, Qifrey watches as SHA clenches and Unclench their finger he frowned at the sight his theory being confirmed by SHA'S words they weren't brimmed caps but victims of forbidden magic,  innocent people turned and twisted by the horrid experiments of the Brimmed caps cruel ideas and goals. " they hurt you." Qifrey whispered placing his hand into SHA'S his fingers wrapping around SHA'S giving them a light squeeze not even sure if theh could feel it. SHA'S eyes softed their gaze drifting to Qifrey once more as they tilted their head slightly ears flopping from tbe movement " corRect " SHA chokes their voice becoming more strained as they spoke. " thank you sha i understand this must be quite difficult for you to talk about" he whispered voice soft and fulled with general kindness it make something in SHA'S chest hurt, they had grown so use to the cold malice words of the brimmed caps only having the occasional soft spoken words from Inina who seemed to actually care for them but only a little as they made no effort to stop the torrent inflicted by their friends on them. " QuesTioN?"  SHA mutters  voice soft and small it made it very impossible to say no to the sheep " sure what up?" He asked realising he was speaking to the sheep as if he was speaking to one of his students it made him take a second back.  " i. WISh tO SpEak to SeE BoN " they sated their head creaking towards Easthies almost like they knew it was ultimately his decision. 

Easthies paused averting his eyes from the grey sheep who looked at him in such a way it remind Qifrey of a child looking at their parent in confusion. Easthies rased a hand to his chin clearly pondering if he should allow it. " IF yoU WiSh TO SpeAk tO BoN YOu'lL nEeD Me their  HE wonT BE aS KiNd as Me." SHA stated waving a hand out as they slowly puhsed them slef off the floor thier lesg scraping as they stood, they swayed from the movement making Qifrey extend a hand out on instinct to catch them obly to realise they would moslty get crushed if they pressed thier full weight on the small man compared to them.

Easthies let out a deep sign his shoulder slumping as he takes a few steps back cleating the door " fine but any funny business you'll be thrown back in there understand" he stated voice sharp and hard lacking any kind of kindness. 

SHA pauses freezing in place making Qifrey turn towards him raisng an eye brow to the sheep. SHa titlis their head eyes landing on Easthies. " F.funnY BuSiNess?" They asked clearly  not familiar with the fraze. Easthies face hardened at the Sheep's words clearly taken a back by SHA'S words he shakes their head before stomping off towards the rabbits clearly not giving SHA or Qifrey another words. SHA'S ears pin down as they fiddle with their hands nervously " sOrRy.."  SHA mutters catching Qifrey's attention, he snaps his head towarss them sheep so fast it makes him his as pain  shoots thru his neck before he waves his arms out infornt of him in a panic " no no , it not your fault , Easthies's just a grumpy old man pay no mind to them" he reassured. SHA'S shoulders shake as a small chuckle break their  the composure unlike Bon's which was deep and soulless making the hairs on everyone's neck shoot up, this one was soft full of life and so gental it made a small smile slip thru his mask. 

Soon SHA followed the two down the hallway eyes catching the gaze of the other as they send a confused and uncomfortable glances which made SHA scuffed closer to the snow haired man, they didn't speak as they headed down the hall. 

Soon they reached another large metallic door on both side stood two Knight of Morralis one of which SHA recognised. "YoU , YoUR OKay!" They stard clean happy at seeing Luluci is fine. Luluci is taken aback by SHA'S kind words and general worry she smiles at the sheep nodding " I am thank you for your worry" she said not having it her to be mean to this lamb something unclear tugging at her heart. The way the sheep acted remind Luluci of something but she coundt rember what not wanting to distract herself she pushed that thought away shaking her head before she reached a hand and clicked the door open. 

Easthies nodded before steping into the dark room, Qifrey and SHA followed suit SHA had to crouch down to prevent themselve from hitting the doorframe as they entered the large room. The room was darker then SHA most of the light haven been torn and distorted clouding the room in a early silence. There huddled in the corner was Bon who was slumped in the right corner angled in a way that allowed them to have full cases to thoes who enter. Bons legs were tucked to their chest arms wrapped tightly around them thier head rest against the metallic frame eyes darting between the theee before firmly locking onto SHA. Their eyes blood shot and filled with malice. As Easthies and Qifrey enter Bon abruptly stood making Easthies ready his capture pennant. Bon non shoke and creaked as Bon rose from the corner thier feet clamping down onto the floor digging into the stone, the body was hunched over eye's firmly locked on SHA ears drooping down as they turned their head towards the sheep eyes glaring at them. SHA stepped forward positioning themselves in between The two pointed caps and Bon eyes following every twitch and every hesitation Bon made. Bon paused theire blood shot eyes twitching as the body began to shake throwing themselve into once more a fit of laughter like before it wasn't one of joy it sound broken drained of life and kindness it was raw broken drained and forced, as Bon laughed their head flew back once more ears wavinging limply as their shoulder shock with more force then necessary. "yOu SiDE wHiT tHeM..YOu MaKE Me sICk " Bon spat head snapping forward with enough force it would of broken an normal prison spine with easy. Their eyes were narrowed as they landed on Easthies's tensed form  mouth handing wide as a gargled noise echoed thru thier teeth. Qifrey galnced betwwen the two snese the rise in tension as the two locked eyes with another he knew this was going to be ugly " we are the ones who hurt you!" Qifrey's voice snapped Bon's attention away from Easthies,  their head twisting within seconds towards him it made he take a step back from the speed. Bon stared once more before reaching up and pulling tightly it made Luluci winces imaging the pai  they would feel from that. Bon sent the girl a glare making her ready her Capture pennant not wanting to take her chances. Bon once more broke into a fit of laughter as they took a step back a hand clutching the fabric of their face as they laughed " NoT tHE sAme.."  they repeated voice filled with a something heavy. Soon the laughter died down as they fell forward. 

" yOu CLam TO be DiFfrent .. bUT yoU loOk at US wIth tHe SaMe EyEs as THeM" Bon spits at them head taking a sharp turn as they spoke, contrast to sha Bon was not easly swayed his words were filled with pain and rage that woundt be put out by a couple of soft words and Qifrey knew that. Dispite the damger lomming from the rabbit Qifrey approched. Bon's back starighted head snapped up straight in alarm as they watch Qifrey approach. He stop a few inchs away giving him just enough distance to react if they decide to attack them again but close enough to show he was serious. Bon titled their head as Qifrey approched eyes scanning him watching the way his shoulder lacked any of the previous tensetion in them. 

" we are not the ones who hurt you." He sated voice sharp and blunt compared to how he spoke to SHA. He wasn't wearing his haven removed before entering SHA'S room and decided it was for the best to not wear it here. 

Bon's ears twitched lightly before they slumped forwards theire face inch's from Qifrey's but despite the rude invasion Qifrey didn't move remaining locked were he stood. " YoU lOoK aT uS liKe TOols , pieces oF a PuzZle THat YOu CaNt FIx!" They spat voice dripping with venom and hate. " ThEy TooK EVerYtHinG! , So... I mAke tHeM fEel wHAt ThEy maDe Us FeeL !" They chukeled rearing back as a small broke laught cut theu the air. Qifrey couldn't help but thrown at Bon's words he could only imagine a small fraction of what they had felt what the brimmed caps had taken from them and the torture they felt. " im sorry." Qifrey whispered voice low and soft at Hearing Qifrey words Bon suddenly slammed its fist into the stone Luluci tensed and SHA placed a arm infront Of Qifrey as they drew closer.

" SORRy!!!" Bon yelled voice breaking as a spark cracked from their  neck.

Qifrey felt they growing danger he knew Bon was only getting more and more enraged by there presents but he couldn't help but try. " Bon.. i-" but he was cut off as Bon lunged for him.

Qifrey's breath hitched as he stumbled back as Bon moved but was intervened. As thethey wrapped Bon wrist as the other hand pressed hard Against Bons back before they slammed them to the ground, Bon let out a small grunt as they pushed against the force pinning them down. SHA's eyes were narrowed as they meet Bons blood shot eyes. " sToP!" SHA pleaded with the blue rabbit only to be meet with a kick to their leg making them buckle and lose their grip, wasting no time Bon landed a hard hit towards SHA'S head only to be meet once more by a thick silver cloth wrapped around there arm pulling them back. Bon hissed as they swirled around using there other hand to grip the end of the cloth trying to pull it forward. But was meet with nothing sliver cloth wrapped around their leg before suddenly being pulled. Bon yelled as they lost their footing their knee smacking against the hard stone as their head twisted toward the second Person Luluci had wrapped her Capture pennant around Bons leg as they were about to do what they had previously did to her. Bon hissed at the blondes haired girl before there other hand ripped the fabric of the cloth pulling at their leg. Luluci flinched not expecting Bon to be able to so easily to break something like that. "That Wont STop Me!" Bon chuckled as they ripped the fabric holding their arm as they rose once more. " I'lL Rip yOu aPArt, aNd Put yoU bacK ToGether!" They chuckled before reaching for Luluci only to be once more slammed into the wall As SHA stopped their assault. Bon let out a deep distorted noise as they turned to face SHA as their hands pressed hard against the shoulders trying with all their strength to suppress the Blue rabbit mouth open wide as a similar noise echoed from the sheep. But sha was never the one to fight but bon was. Suddenly Bon gave a hard push making SHA stammered back before Bon slammed there firsts into the Sheep's back making them hunch forward before grabbing their shousle3r and tossing them to the side into a wall with a large hard THUD! SHA doesn't rise again this time  their body going limp as their head lurcked forwards swaying limply as their slump against the hard stone. Bon stares for a second their eyes dull and empty beofre they turned back to the three in their room. Bon was heaving now. Their shoulders shaking as they stammer forward their body swaying uncontrollably around as they seemly reach the end of their energy. " i wONder.. iF yoU'll sCreAM WhEn i-" but bon words dieing in their throat as a small body position thir self bettwen the 3 witch's and the blue rabbit. Bone had was extended forwards as they approached was now hovering in the air seemingly lost on what to do. Bon's hole body seized up as their eyes go wide as they stared at the small body protecting the three from them.

The body was one of a small child around the age 8-11years old the shirt was a shorter sleeve one and was covered in claw makes that torn the fabric the shirt was alright sun like yellow standing out compared to the small grey shorts that covered there legs, the kids legs were drenched in cuts , and bite and bleeding heavily, the left shoe was a dark grey and small slight worn down and drenched in mud the other foot was bare and covered in cuts. The small child had their arms extended put shielding the witch's and door from Bon, their arms similar to the re legs was covering in cuts and bites but more gruesome as the bite marks dragged opened the wounds like something had attempted to tear the skin apart , thier hair was a short lock of black with blood clinging together making Qifrey winces at the sight, thier was stick, leaves and other items loved in the bundle of hair, sitting ontop their head was a small flower crown, filled with a ray of purple  white and yellow flowers tangled together neatly and finally covering their face from the three was a old worn down and bloody sheep mask, the mask was dirty and had slight ware and tears the left ear was slightly torn , from the two holes for the a was a tick black stain that reached down to the edge of the mask and shining for the two dark hole was a pare of white glowing eyes that were filled with sorrow. Drenching the shirt was a massive stain of blood " STOP!" The scream at the rabbit making the rabbit stammered back at the voice. Bon stares at the kid their body hunched and hand held in the air. As they scaned the small child that position themselve between them with no regard to themselve. Luluci states eyes wide as her grip loosened around her capture pennant as it lowered giving her clear access to the scenes infront of her, ahead of her standing strong was Easthies his normally blank and hard expression was now replaced with one of shock and confusion, Qifrey huffed as one hand remained raised to shield his faces from Bon's previous attack. His blue ice eye locked on the small child infron of them. 

" s..sha?" Qifrey whispered voice low and uncertain. As he blinked almost afraid this would vanish from his sight. 

The small child's head popped up at the sound of Qifrey's voices their arms lowering as they slowly turned to meet Qifrey's jaws struck face. A few stands of hair brushed against the solid mask covering thier face.  The stared blankly at the man their arms resting by their side as their eyes scanned Qifrey form before titling their head to the side as a small hum echoed from the kid as Qifrey could feel the soft smile under the mask. Qifrey's shoulders slumped a lump in his throat forming as the words died in the throat he slowly reached a hand a pressed it firmly against his chest above his heart as he felt something break deep inside. Sha paused her eyes drapping over him before turning towards Bon thier shoulders solid and strong.as the stepped forwards closing the distance between the two.

" bon"  Sha whispered voice not longer breaking but still raw and clearly forced.

Bon's head tilting as their head returned limply to their side. "sHA" Bon croaked voice creaking but not longer filled with the malice and rage from earlier.

Sha's eyes softed a they took another step forwards extending their hand out towards the blue rabbit. Bone stammered back their back no pressed hardly against the stone wall thier body language completely diffrent to early haven been strong , confident and fulled with rage now small filled with doubt and fear. Bon's eyes drifted from Sha's eyes to her hand which remained extended out their eyes soft and fulled with kindness that made Bon's ears droop down closer. 

" please, no more" she pleaded and Qifrey could hear the desperation in her voices as she inched closer her footsteps soundless against the stone. Bon's head lowered as they looked down at their hands their eyes dilated and locked on the blood stains clinging to the metallic parts before their gaze turned to the slumped body of SHA in the corner their legs spreader out, arms limp by their side   head pressed heavy against the top of their chest, something Qifrey couldn't make out swam in Bon's eyes before they turned back to Sha's extended arm soon a soft noise eascpe the soulless husk infront of them their knees smacking against the hard stone as the once looming rabbit crumbled to there metallic knees. 

" please, you dont have to fight anymore." Sha whispered recahing over and taking one of Bon's metallic hand into theirs the raw   blood scarred skin rubbing softly against the cold , smooth metallic joints. Bon eyes peared theu their flopped ears the blood shot eyes filling with tears Sha hadn't seen in ages. 

Sha tilted her head slightly a warm smile hiden by their sheep mask as their other hand took Bon's other hand placing them softly i to the rabbits lap " we can rest now" they whispered voice soft and warm. Bon averted their gaze their face darkening with something Qifrey could recognise as sorrow.

"Bon" Sha called again a hand reaching against the soft fabric against theire cheek tilting their head to face Her again. " they want to help us" she whispered her eyes landing on the blood soaked into the fabric surrounding around the rabbits chest cavity " please let them help you" Sha pleaded with the rabbit her free hand coming to shift the mask back in place before the rested their head against the soft fabric of Bon's head. 

Bon remainded motionless before their eyes rolled into the back of their head as their body slumped forwards, their metallic hand scrapping against the stone as their movement ceases. 

Qifrey paused his gaze turning  toward the other two pointed caps in the room. Sending them a confused glance. Before a soft sound broke the silence. Qifrey's head snapped back to the two before he noticed a silhouette shifting nervously behind the dull blue rabbit. Qifrey slowly stood his movemt slow and curious as he crouched down next to the sheep girl. Sha paused turning her head to meet Qifrey eye, sha didn't speak just reached out to the snow haired man a gave him a soft almost childish pat on his knee it was laughable at how little force the tap had it made Qifrey slip a small smile on his lips, before a noise caught his ear.

" we can rest?" A creaky deep and raw voice called out from behind the blue rabbit shifting from foot to foot nervously their back facing the two as their hands fiddled infront of their chest. 

Qifrey tiled his head trying to see the small body hidden from view behind Bon, he could notice a small once white.shirt stained with blood and dirt. Their hand were red thick with blood. Sha slowly took a step closer leaving Qifrey's side as thye tilted their head a soft chuckle escaping her lips as they stood softly waiting patiently.

" yes,  but first you need to stop hidding " she whispered turning her head towards the still slumped SHA in the corner before the sound of soft fabric sliding against the floor make her gaze returned to the Blue rabbit, slowly a small form emerged from behind the Blue rabbit making Luluci gaurd completely crumble, their standing by the limp Bon was a small girl around Qifrey's apprentices age 10-12  they wore a a small once white now a light grey shirt, their hand to their elbow covered in a thick layer of blood, they wore a pair of dark grey legging ripped and cut near the ankels thier legs covered in small cuts and brusie covering thier feet is a soft pair of brown blood stained boots, around the child's neck and running down thier chest was a thick layer of blood neck completely covered in blood,  covering every feature of their face was a dull blue and light rey bonny mask with a pair of long  blue ears drooping over their faces a blood stains coming across their face from their lest cheek to the corner of the black holes were someone's eyes would be. Flowing behind them was a pair of dull blood stained bright blood fish green hair clearly not mantaied well and treated properly. Their hands chest against the small child's chest fiddling nevoursly their head dropped down avoiding Qifrey's and the others gaze. 

Qifrey's eyes softed at the small child in front  of them similar to Sha there skin was a slight grey and the two were somewhat transparent allowing them to see behind the small children. Sha didn't approach giving the new person space and quietness as they could see their nevers dancing under their skin.

Qifrey was the first to move.

Slowly he stood taking small steps towards the Rabbit masked child who he assumed is Bon. Bon jolted up right taking a hard step back arms positioned in a defences manner what made Qifrey let out a small winces at raw sight Bon was clearly terrified of him but still he slowly crouched down so he was eye level with the small child, up close he could tell the kid was a small girl the long hair being heavily matted but he pused that aside as he slowly making sure his movement were obvious giving the terrified girl enough time to back away but for some strange reason remaind frozen allowing Qifrey's cold and warm arms to wrap around their small frame, the child was terrifyingly cold almost lifeless in Qifrey's arms the made no such movement and he could barley hear the sound of their shallow breathing. Qifrey eyes narrowed as a unsettling idea creapted In to his mind.

The dull grey ish skin.

The two being some what transparent.

The blood stains and wounds.

Their coldness and lack of any signs of being alive.

Theys two.

Theys kids.

They were dead.
