Cursing

Blood (lots of it)

Near character death

Virgil was sitting in his room not quite sure what to do for the day. He wasn't sure what time Roman had planned on taking him on his quest. Roman had told him Virgil he wanted him to help him in taking down a specifically hard dragon witch. Virgil decided that he would go ahead and take his shower and get dressed.

He wore a black long sleeves shirt with his ripped skinny jeans. He plops on the end of his bed and pulled his socks and shoes on. He then looked in his closer for his jacket that he had hung uo earlier that day. He pulls it on cs re fully and sips it up carefully. He then mived back to his bed. He grabs his phone and headphones. He went over to his door, silentlt debating whether he looked good enough to be seen. He shook his head at the nervous thoughts and plugged his headphines in and played music. He oulled his hood up and made his way into the living room.

Patton was in the kitchen cooking the large lunch he always does when Roman had a mission the following night. Roman was probably in his room getting ready for the mission. Logan sat in his recliner a book resting on his leg. He was in one of those dazes where his eyes were seeing the words but not really reading them.

I walk over and carefully tap his shoulder causing him to snap out of his daze "Oh. Good afternoon Virgil. Did you require soemthing of me?"

Virgil shook his head "No... Just wanted to make sure you were alright. You were a bit dazed just then"

Ligan adjusted his glasses "I am indeed troubled. This missiin seems unnesacary and very dangerous."

Virgil nods "I know but if Roman really wants to take it down I need to be there to make sure he doesn't get himself killed"

Logan gave a concerned look but nods, none the less. Virgil nodded as well and made his way to the kitchen where he was met with Patton handing him a plate "morning kiddo!!"

Virgil smiles and takes the.plate and sets it down on the the table and he sat down "morning and thanks"

Virgil began to eat and only stopped when he saw Patton set a glass of orange juice on the table for him. He sipped it and then stood to throw his stuff away. He smiles weakly at Patton. But before he could say anything Riman walked in while running a hand through his hair. He carefully grabbed a plate and began to eat quickly soon finishing.

Patton looked concerned but put a smile.on his face none-the-less " you're gonna give yourself the hiccups kiddo"

Roman set his plate in the sink and scarfed down an entire glass of orange juice in 2 gulps. He then grabbed Virgils sleeve knowing the skin on skin contact would scare him "Thanks for the food pat!! Gotta go get Virgil his gear"

With that said, Roman dragged Virgil to his bedroom. His room was intense and very red and white. He let go of Virgils sleeve and head over to his closet. He opened it and it had red clothes. He then closed it again. He clapped and all the clothes were replaced by a single outfit which was identical to Virgils. Roman plucked it from the hanger and handed it to Virgil, who took it in his arms looking cinfused.

"The fabric is thicker and more durable. It'll protect you from common weapons" He spoke while fishing in a large tote pulling out a long butterfly knife amd offering it out to Virgil.

Virgil took the knife slowly glad that it was closed. He then sets it on the bed. He walked into the bathroom and changed his clothes as did Roman in the bedroom. Virgil came back out feeling a bit more heavy but not to much. Roman stood there with a pair of black combat boots and dark purple laces "Here ya go. These'll help you with the muddy and tough terrain."

Virgil nods and took them he then slipped them on and laced them up tightly. He set his black tenis shoes on the bed on top of his clothes. He then looks at Roman who was collecting some essentials like food and a map and water bottles. Virgil slipped out to tell the others bye and grab his headphones from his room as well as a couple extra phone batteries. He had a feeling that he would need some music to keep himself calm and sane during this long adventure.

He made his way to his room but noticed his door was already open. He peeked in and saw Patton carefully folding some of his clothes and had his headphones set on his bed with the box of fully charged portable chargers "D...Dad?"

Patton looked over and smiles "Heya Virge. Sorry for being in here wity out your permission but i thought I'd help you get some stuff ready for your trip." He handed Virgil a book bag full of the clothes and then the small box of portable chargers and placed his headphones on his head for him "see? Much easier. Oh and theres a book in their from Logan. He said something about the book changing?"

Virgil nods gently "Yeah. Thanks dad" Virgil was the pulled into a hug and he had to manuever the things in his arms to hug back.

He smiles and Patton looks up at him "Be careful out there alright kiddo?"

Virgil nods and stepped back "probably shouldn't keep the prince waiting. We'll be back in a few days at most." He smiles nad Patton nodded. He then disappeared out the door. Virgil shook his head and plugged in his phone and turned on his music. He pockets his phone and heads out the bag on his back and the box in hand.

He got back to Roman room.to see him standing there with a bag similar to Virgils but white instead of black. "Patton?" Virgil says which cayght Romans attention.

Roman looks over and nods "yeah..

He was hust in my room while i went to get some water bottles from the kitchen. Also you forgot this" Roman handed him the butterfly knife which he then pocketed.

Virgil gave a small sigh and Roman was then walking over to a large door.

[Time Skip to them settling after their first day of searching for the dragon witch]

Roman and Virgil had finally found a good spot to take a break. They had found some tracks but othet than thay not much else. They decided to set up a small camp to rest for a bit. Roman had suggested they take turns as look out. Virgil took first shift sense he didnt usually fall asleep til later. Luckily Patton had packed a blanket in one of their bags. Roman layed it out and began to get his rest. Virgil sat on the floor of the small cave they had settled and started a fire in.

It was a few hours in and the moon eas at its peak. Roman was going to go wake Roman up but heard a loud ruffle in the shrubbery just a bit into the forest. Virgil got nervous... Extremely nervous. He wanted to go wake Roman up but what if it was nothing and he was just imagining things.

Virgil worked up the courage and made his way over to the bush only to see a bot of reptilian scales lead deeper into the forest. He drew his butterfly knife and carefully flicked it open and following. He didnt realize how far he had gone from the cave and then he felt something wrap around his ankle and tug his leg from below him.

He let out a loud yelp and his back hit the muddy and drit worn floor. He opens his eyes that had fallen shut in the fall. Hovering over him was a woman like figure with lots of scales and a black witches hat. Virgils froze up but then his flight or fight reflects kicked in. He kicked up ward at the creature whi gave out a loud scream of pain and he turned onto his stomach pushing himself up as quickly as possible and began to book it.

He kept running despite the burning in his legs. He could hear the sound of wings behind him. He decided to scream to wake Roman up "Roman!!!"

He didn't know if it worked but before he could get back to the cave he felt something wrap aroumd his middle and pluck him harshly from his run and knocking the wind out of him. He felt the grip tighten until he was sure he felt a rib crack and he let out a loud scream of pain. That did the trick, Roman jerked uo and rushed out of the cave to see Virgil being crushed by the dragin witchs tail. The Dragon witch noticed Roman amd tossed Virgil aside. Roman grabbed his sword and went to fighting. Soon Virgil was regaining his barings and looked up to see Roman backed up against a wall sword lost in the dirt. The dragin witch was about to shoot a large green spike like beam at him but Virgil kicked himself into gear and lushed Roman out of the way so the beam nailed Virgil straight through the stomach. It was as if a sword had just been thrust through him but it easily cut through the clothes. Virgil was knocked to the side and his back the 2. Virgil heard Roman scream out a 'No' and then a clink of metal was heard and a large wail of pain coming from the creature and a thud.

Virgil felt a choke course up through him. He then let out a weak cough and some blood spilled from his mouth. He had his hands grasping at his stomach. His short was ripped and a puddle of blood was forming around him. The thud of feet and soon Roman had dropped down next to Virgil rolling him on his back and moving his hands to see the wound "No No No!!!" Roman held his hands to the wound causing Virgil to let out a wail of pain.

Roman the remebered that Logan could help. He scooped Virgil up in his arms and began to run as fast her could to the exit of the imagination. By the time he got there Virgil was slipping in and out of counciousness and princeys short was soaked in blood his white shirt now matching his sash.

Roman kicked in the door to the imagination and screamed out for help "Logan!! Patton!! Help!!" Patton was first to awaken and he rushed out and the sight alone made him gag and cover his mouth. He helped get Virgil to the couch and alogan had rushed out. His eyes widen and he adjust his glasses to make sure he was seeing correct "oh... Oh dear Lord" he ran off and returned with a large med kit

He dropped down onto the floor next to the couch and carefully renoved the now uncouncious Virgils clothing to reveal his blood stained pale skin. Patton had to hide his face in Romans chest and sobbed. Roman had a hand in Virgils hair and noticed Virgils eyes began to flutter open.

"R...Roman..." Virgils voice was hoarse and once he talked his throat clenched and he coughed out more blood.

Logan then pressed the cleaning supplies to Virgils would and he let out a loud scream of pain to which Patton almost want to stop Logan but instead dropped down and held Virgils head gently "its okay Virge... I've got you..."

Virgil began to scream as Logan pulled the bits of cauterized clots out. Patton held him tightly and let tears silently fall down his cheeks and then Virgils body went limp. Patton started to freak out but Logan spoke up with an uncharactierstically shakey voice "it was blood loss and pain. He'll be okay. Roman, Patton go get washed up and get me lots of warm wash clothes ams pain meds."

Logan began to suture him up and Virgil stayed unconscious. The 2 did what they were told and Roman came back with many wash clothes amd 2 pails of warm water. Logan nods and began to clean the area a bit more thouroughly and the warmth would ease the soreness as much as possible.

A few hours had passed of Roman explaining excatly what happened to Patton and Logan. Logan was haply to know that Virgil got hurt helping Roman but would have prefered if neither of them had gone period. Patton was glad that they defeated the beast but scared for Virgil. Virgils eyes began to flicker open. He glanced around a bit and recognized the living room ceiling, a place he spent bours staring at sometimes. Virgil then let his head fall to the side and saw Patton, Roman and Logan talking at the table.

Roman... He was safe and no injuries. He was safe. He saved him. Virgil let out a sigh of relief but that hurt... Really bad. Virgil let out a small groan that caught the others attention. Roman was the first up. He came over quicjly and hugged Virgil gently. Virgil winces but hugged back weakly. Patton hugged as well and Logan shooed them off of him "Virgil is most likely in extreme pain from this embrace. I recomend you both refrain from touching him."

With this explanation they both back off. Only then did Virgil realize that he only wore his pants amd his entire upper half was bare aside from a lot of cause wrapped around one shoulder and covering his entire torso. He blushed and Logan noticed. He pulled a blanket up over Virgils chest which Virgil smiled weakly at. He rest his head back on pillow and gave a breathless chuckle "H...Hey" He finally managed to Roman

Roman smiles "Hey..." He looked.like he had been crying and it hurt Virgil "you good? You weren't hurt were you?" At first Roman thought Virgil was making fun of him but the look Virgil had was to sincere and it made Romans heart shatter

"No... You were though... Badly..." Roman carefully let some more tears roll down his cheeks.

Virgil shook his head "Nothing i can't handle... I just did my job. I went with you to make sure you weren't killed. I succeeded"

Roman buried hos face into Virgils chest and began to weep. Virgilw as surprised but let him and ran a hand through his hair weakly. Roman soon calmed down and looked up "I should have saved you..."

Virgil shook his head "You did... You brought me here"

Roman smiles and ran a hand through Virgils nessy hair "I guess you are officially by prince now..."

"Nah... To much pressure..."
