Player just wanted the day to be over with, he seemed tired after all the incidents in demo 3. Thus, he was still called to Roblox HQ by Shedletsky ─ the next sword, firebrand. Player listened to Shedletsky intently just wanting everything be over with, but then he heard the location of it and where he was supposed to go, Vermillion Village. Wasnt that the area Caspian went to investigate about the firebrand or treasure, he didn't know he forgotten, as Player immediately jumped up and grabbed his things dashing out the door before Shedletsky said another word, He finally got to his love again after so many years and months apart he could finally see his beloved husband once more.
Player made it to the docks in time but was stopped by Kyoko
─ Hey! You seemed to be in a rush everything okay?..
Kyoko asked concerned, shes never seen player in a scurry before, Player seemly frozen as he was still overwhelmed with so many emotions from finding out he could see his love again, he then tilted his head slightly at Kyoko
Kyoko might have realized that Player was probably overwhelmed or frustrated, She quickly apologized so many times, Player pulled out his communication cards, flipping them before showing it to Kyoko
─ [ It's okay ]
After that Kyoko started to ask player and talk to him as Player listened intently and impatiently, he just wanted this to be all over with. When Kyoko finally finished talking, Player dashed away without a second thought, he just wants to see his love, as soon as Player got on the boat and got to Path to Vermillion Village, he immediately got of the boat, thanking the old kind man before walking to find where the hell could his love be.
He started walking around battling anything or anyone that came his way, he made it to a puzzle and completed it, as he ventured more and more, completing jumps, parkour and even more puzzles.
He made it to an ancient tomb as he seemed tired and already roughed up. He still ventured onwards battling even more and more enemies along the way, completing puzzles and almost dying. Finally after the rolling ball running thingy I forgot, he made it to a healing pad as he leaned against the wall resting. He spotted the ship in the bottle as he went over to grab it before suddenly BOOM. a Genie appeared, THE GREAT FLOCCINAUCINIHILIPILIFICATION, or Just The Great Flocci, As the Genie said
─ Heed thy first wish, summoner.
─ Heed thy wish that BURNS IN THE SOUL OF THE GIFTED!
Player didn't have to time for this nonsense, he was super tired and bruised up, he just wants to see Caspian for the last time. Although Flocci DID not know what boundaries were as he kept on yapping and yapping about hurrying up and other shit. Player managed to mutter out a few words or so.
─ My Dear..
Flocci could've swore he heard that correctly, as he seemed confused but granted the wish. Although of course something went wrong, The Genie sighed before asking Player to make another wish, Player muttered another again
─ The.. The Ship in the bottle.
Flocci's eyes widened as he looked flabbergasted and furious, the ship was after all his home. Flocci challenged the player to a fight and after being beaten the shit out of and player dealing with all of his nonsense, he got the ship in the bottle.
He continued to venture deeper and deeper into the tomb, ONCE AGAIN. RUNNING INTO TERRY AND JERRY. Finally he made it out to safety before seeing a group of pirates talking about something.
As Player got closer to eavesdrop on the conversation, a twig snapped under his feet, uh oh.
─ WHOSE THERE!?
One of the startled pirates murmured as he drew out his sword, the other reloaded his flintlock gun and the last was ready to throw some fists at any cost or moment.
Player stumbled out of hiding spot as he scratched his head after being hit by a coconut as he looked at the pirates.
Although he recognized one of them, the red haired one, His... HIS HUSBAND, CASPIAN!?? But it doesn't seem like Caspian remembers Player, As the suspicious pirate seemed confused
─ . .. Is that person even apart of our division and plan. ..????
The suspicious pirate asked flintlock, pointing at player
─ . . SPIES IN MY CREW BREH ESPIONAGE.
Caspian of course is being a complete DUMB. BITCH. as Flintlock sighed and hushed him
─ Now now.. It's just a PESKY eavesdropper. HEY YOU.. We got a policy for stowaways around here...
Flintlock snickered
─ AND THATS GETTING BEATEN TO A PULP!
Caspian shouted
─ LET'S GET EM BOYS!
Flintlock commanded as they all lunged at Player, Player who was zoned out too much finally realized the situation drew out his sword and ball, battling all the 3 pirates before finally defeating 2 of them, Player was on 7 health as he panted. The last pirate was Caspian
Caspian feeling like something was familiar about player, He finally realized that not any player. THATS HIS HUSBAND PYTHON. Player collapsed from hurt and exhaustion as Caspian quickly caught him
─ Shit, Shit shit...
TIME SKIP A FEW HOURS
Player finally woke up at the Camp, his breathing uneasy as he turned to see Caspian talking with Calypso and Captain Trotter.
Once Caspian saw Player was awake, he immediately ran to his bedside crying and apologizing so many times, Player tried to reassure him saying it was okay and fine but Caspian was to stubborn.
─ It's really fine Caspian.
Player said, his voice sounding soft as he smiled at Caspian
Caspian immediately got into bed with him, changing their positions so that they are cuddling with each other as Player snickered
─ Clingy..? Huh
Player patted Caspian
─ Mmh... Nh...
Caspian groaned as he hugged Player tighter, Player felt comfy with Caspian in his arms cuddling like this
His heart ached and burned for him, wanting to tell the truth. Player blurted out everything about the ghostwalker as he looked at Caspian who was processing it, then proceeded to shove his face back into Player's chest, crying and saying words of comfort.
Player tried saying he was okay now but Caspian didn't believe him, he was glad to have Caspian as his partner. The two talked in comfort and eventually fell asleep.
Maybe love is a burning thing.
