Eternals

Secrets weren't hidden forever but the one secret that all the Eternals were keeping from Discord wasn't even a secret. All of the Eternals knew and it surprised many as to why he didn't know what happened to his daughter Screwball. Jeffy kept saying she ran off back to the Immortals but they didn't know what happened to her, maybe she didn't make it. But everyone knew exactly what happened to her. Jeffy especially.

He killed his sister and enjoyed it. He remembered that it gave him the rush of being a killer once more and taking in every bit of it while having the other Rainbow Factory Controllers by his side. When she was brutally murdered by both his hand and the Immortal Device, he had been in the dark of where his sister's soul went, if anywhere. He had always followed what Flippy believed to be true. That if they die by the Rainbow Factory then their soul remains trapped there to never escape ever again.

But then Nyarth became the controller of Silent Hill where he found the area in which was hidden, where only he could find it. Where the souls of those who died by the Rainbow Factory were trapped and imprisoned in some kind of cage among the deepest and darkest part of the town. What had he felt at that point? Pain, regret, happiness? So many questionable feelings but he hid them from his curious father. How did he not know that he had killed his daughter. But mostly importantly, his own sister, Screwball?

Even if Discord were to ask him, Jeffy knew he would be unable to tell his father. It would be too hard. And it had almost happened. He had asked him again and again and Jeffy attempted to change the subject and leave but this time, the spirit of chaos held him back and said he thought he wasn't telling him the truth. In an instinct-like panic, he teleported himself away and then used his flower to locate Meowth who he knew could help him. Maybe.

Nyarth was always sensitive, more than usual, about the things happening in Silent Hill and even more so with the imprisoned souls there. Jeffy had attempted one time before to get help from Nyarth with Discord in which he immediately refused, lashing out at him as he retreated deep into a part of Silent Hill even he would not venture into alone. Maybe now he may help him, maybe he could sway him with the possibility that Discord was on his trail and would eventually bring the same question up with him.

An idea in his head, Jeffy tracked down Nyarth just slipping into Silent Hill but before the portal behind him could close, the narrowing followed him through.

His mind was dazed for a few moments before he became refocused. But that didn't bring him any sense of relief once he realized just where he had followed Meowth into. This was no normal Silent Hill area and it wasn't in the normal form or who covered in fog. No, instead, it was covered in a darkness not even he could see through. Years of being a self-taught killer had given him the ability to see through the dark with little difficulty. This darkness was different in the case that it was a darkness created and controlled by one's mind. Both the monsters in Silent Hill itself and Silent Hill's now controller, Nyarth, it added a sense of fear that would scare anyone who didn't understand it. Jeffy was one of those who understood it but still often found it's eerie tone to be too much for the former serial killer to take.

This was the Silent Hill Otherworld with the darkness and rust on every building and street and no escape but through a portal only Amber and Nyarth had the advanced power to control. Just being here scared him and now he had to stay here and convince his friend to do something he had refused time and time again to do. He was stubborn, Jeffy knew, but not heartless. He knew he valued him as a close friend and he would no anything to help those he cared about. And from what Jeffy had seen, Nyarth was not a big fan of Discord despite saying he trusted him. He did trust him but he didn't necessarily like him.

It took Jeffy only a few moments to recover and only a few more moments for Nyarth to notice him. Knowing him, he expected him to irritated but he simply looked... well, devious. Jeffy was used to his devious look but it sometimes made him uncomfortable. Now, he couldn't think of a reason as to why he wouldn't be annoyed at him for following him into Silent Hill without him knowing. Maybe he knew why he had followed him but then, why would he not be angry with him? But if there was one thing Jeffy had learned about Nyarth, it was that he could not easily be predicted and one emotion could be displayed on the outside and the complete opposite on the inside.

Nyarth flicked his tail and then curled it back upwards behind him. "I know why ya're here Jeffy" he simply stated, a slightly dangerous tone lacing his calm voice, screeched slightly.

That wasn't good. But even he knew the Pokemon wouldn't even try to hurt him. They were close friends, he would never do that, even if he was on the brink of losing it. Visibility, he awkwardly shifted before taking a deep breath and lifting his black, blood-stained eyes to his friend.

"If you do then I suppose I don't have to persuade you to help me then?" he asked carefully, wondering how he could have a sudden change of mood on the subject, after last time.

Nyarth simply unsheathed one claw, long and dripping with the head blood of his alter ego and blood brother, Master Meowth. "Dun take me for a fool, Jeffy. I saw what happened between ya an' Discord an' I knew ya would come afta me. I came inta Silent Hill 'cause I knew ya would follow me an' Discord would be unable ta ovahear us" He paused to gently lick Master Meowth's blood off of his claw and then sheathed his claw once more.

Jeffy just ignored his blood need for the time being, he understood it and personally kind of liked the taste of blood himself but Nyarth's was a need not a want and even now, he couldn't help but feel slightly put off by it. So it would just be better to ignore it for the time being.

"You knew? So now what? What made you change your mind? You know after... last time" Jeffy wasn't sure if he actually wanted to help or if he was just planning to reject him and make him deal with the issue himself and probably make the situation ten times worst.

Nyarth smirked in his devious yet good-natured manner as he teleported himself next to the Fourtellta. "'Course I knew. An' as for last time..." His smirk vanished. "I was ticked off in general at da time an' plus, I... I didn't t'ink it would get so serious dat Discordia would begin ta sink ta dis serious of a level wid his questions"

Discordia. He had heard it before as being what his father would be called because he had bad aura by those who saw on a daily basis with the aura sense. He knew Nyarth normally saw in aura sense so he using the bad aura name on every Eternal every once in a while didn't surprise him.

"And by ticked off you mean depressed, right?" Jeffy good-naturely responded, smiling slightly as he gently nudged his friend. "Like when you tried to-" he got cut off by Nyarth flattening his ears to his head and narrowing his eyes at him, anger in his blue and black eyes.

"Dun say it" he warned but it seemed to pass straight by Jeffy's head as he continued to finish his sentence.

"You tried to use the abilities you learned from Pinkie Pie's and Apple Bloom's Cupcakes operat-"

Nyarth lashed his tail and allowed pain to begin to overtake his eyes. "Stop, Jeffy" he stated, taking a small step away from him, the memories of his depression coming back to him in a flash.

"Their Cupcakes operation on yourself and then lock yourself away from everyone else and-"

Nyarth had enough and snapped his eyes shut and wrapped his paw onto Jeffy's shoulder before he gripped tightly, transferring his internal pain into his friend, begging his silently to stop plaguing his mind with his depression's thoughts and memories. It was a time he just wanted to forget.

Upon feeling his friend's internal pain, Jeffy shut himself up and looked into Meowth's pleading blue and black eyes. "Too far?" he asked. When Nyarth simply gave a short nod, he sighed. "Hey, sorry about that. I kind of get carried away with things sometimes. But enough of that, what are we gonna do about Discord and..." he trailed off, unable to even say her name. "You know... her?"

Nyarth had regained his composure and simply shook himself to rid himself of his negative thoughts on the previous matter and return to the issue at paw. He turned away from Jeffy and lifted one paw to turn it in the air in a certain manner. The Otherworld's darkness and rust dissolved into a more tame state with a slight fog covering it. Nyarth was no idiot. He knew Jeffy felt uncomfortable in the Otherworld and he wasn't going to make him feel that way around him. Jeffy trusted Meowth but the darkest state of Silent Hill didn't help. He was glad he had changed their surroundings.

"I'm still not all for dis" Nyarth stated, letting a small part of his mind go into its' own little world in the darkness of Silent Hill. It wasn't his main mind so it had no effect on his thought process right now.

Jeffy knew this but still didn't know what Nyarth was trying to do with this. He looked briefly to the ground, taking a few moments to gather his thoughts. Looking back up, he looked back to Meowth who had turned back to him, his blue and black eyes calm and friendly. It relaxed him to honest that he was acting like himself truly in this situation.

"Then don't. I won't let you do something you don't want to do" Jeffy answered, remembering the many times he had forced Meowth to not do something he felt he had to do but didn't. He hadn't wanted to do it either so he simply.

To this, Nyarth giggled a little as he grinned at Jeffy, a complete change of mood than before. But that was one thing Meowth was known for, changing his moods in the blink of an eye. Was it strange, yes. But like Discord, Space, and Pinkie Pie, he knew better than to question things to a full extent, even with Meowth.

"Don't worry Jeffy. I actually wanna help ya but not in da way ya want me ta"

Jeffy briefly tilted his head to the side to this, wondering what he meant by that. He wanted Nyarth to simply help him, not do the full thing. But maybe Nyarth was one step ahead of him on this... again. "What do you mean Meowth? I just want you to help me keep Discord under control and to help me explain and show him what happened to... her" Again, saying her name was too hard for him at the moment.

Nyarth's grin slipped into more of a devious smirk once more, though this didn't bother Jeffy in the least. "Exactly dat. I'll help ya keep Discord unda control an' I'll help show him what happened but..." he paused, glancing briefly behind him to the deepest, darkest part of Silent Hill where the trapped souls resided. Looking back, he let out a small sigh before adding, "Ya have ta be da one ta explain it ta him"

Silence followed by Jeffy not believing what Nyarth was saying at first. Finally, when it clicked, he shook his head and laughed hesitantly and slowly, thinking he was just joing again. "Haha. Element of Laughter strikes again. You can't expect me to explain to my insane, chaotic father that I killed his daughter in the most slow and torturous possible way and I enjoyed it. And that her soul is now living in endless torment" He paused, meeting Nyarth's serious and calm blue and black eyes. "You're joking right?"

Nyarth narrowed his eyes in a serious manner at Jeffy, his expression losing any carefree attitude. He expected this reaction. But it wasn't his thing to mess with but leaving his friend to deal with it alone was basically him killing him. And he was going to do whatever he could to keep him safe, just not going to protect him from everything. In a way, Kojiro' overprotectiveness had given him a new light in reality. That sometimes you could get some help from others but in the end, you had to eventually deal with it yourself. It may not be something Nyarth himself had fully learned yet and he probably never will. But if he could teach someone else this before something really bad happened, then he was willing to go against what his Eternal instincts were telling him to do so.

"Okay, dat's just a new low even for ya. No, I'm not jokin'. Ya have ta deal wid dis problem. I'll help ya but I will not do it for ya" He paused, flattening his ears against his head as harsh memories and nightmares poured back through his delicate mind, Shaking his head, he looked away from Jeffy, forcing back tears as he struggled to continue. Internally, this hurt but he did everything he could to hide it. Hopefully Jeffy wouldn't notice his struggle to contain his emotions. "Trust me on dis one. I had ta learn dat da hard way"

Jeffy had not just met Nyarth, he knew how he worked and he noticed his struggle against his own emotions. Though he didn't react on it. If anything, that would only make him angry or make him break down. And either was not what he wanted right now. But Nyarth did have a point, whether he wanted to admit it or not. He had known he would have to face reality eventually but not this soon. He wasn't ready but there was no going back now. Discord was already suspicious and now he had given him every right to be even more. He had not answered him and escaped him. It had been so long since he had had a killers' urge that he had resorted to panic in a few brief moments. Yeah, going this alone, he was as good as fucked.

He let out a deep sigh, collecting his thoughts once more before he nodded. "Yeah, I know. I just didn't want it to happen this soon. But I know you've felt this before. A lot" he carefully responded, fully aware of the emotional and mental state his friend was currently in. It hurt him to know he was this hurt by his foolish choice of words.

Nyarth didn't cry. But he didn't hold his emotions back either. He took a few more moments to keep himself together and also to allow Jeffy's friendship and accepting words to sink into his mind. "Jeffy... You're a good friend" he quietly stated, turning around to gently hug him, a not so strange human motion. Jeffy only reacted in returning the hug, being careful with him, knowing of how sensitive he was with literally everything. Majority of the time, he completely forgets that Nyarth was in fact a Pokemon but his human like characteristics and non-Pokemon-likeness of him made it hard to notice non appearance-wise.

The hug only lasted a few short seconds for Meowth almost immediately, Nyarth pulled away and shook himself. Re-collecting himself, he straightened up and said, "Alright, let's get dis ova wid" before beginning to move his paw in a certain direction, trying to create a teleporting spell. He hated those spells, too hard and he often failed them. Now was one of those frustrating times.

As Nyarth struggled with his own magic, an idea snapped into his mind and once he noticed Meowth's magic beginning to respond to him, panic once more took over him. He had was careful as he grabbed Nyarth's paw and disconnected his line of magic. Before Nyarth could react however, he telepathically messaged him, being careful to not paralyze his mind, not like last time. "Nyarth, call Fluttershy. She'll be able to help keep Discord calm and under control right?"

Nyarth was in fact, about to react when the gentle telepathic message settled in his mind. He stopped trying to push Jeffy away and let the thought linger. Jeffy did come up with good ideas when he wanted to. And he had a point. He would not back out of his agreement but the extra help from the kind and gentle pegasus curer and lover to Discord would definitely help.

"Fine. I'll use ma flowa powa ta talk ta her" he verbally stated, unable to his telepathy. "I just hope Discordia isn't wid her" he added as a muttered comment but just loud enough for Jeffy to hear. He knew his friend understood him and so he tried to ignore his slightly feared aura around him. He didn't want to make this already bad situation even worse.

As Jeffy let go of his paw, Nyarth reached one paw up to his charm which glowed and slipped out his blue flower that he had kept with him all of this time, ever since he had found it in his hell of a cage in Silent Hill when he had been a Immortal, left to die by Satashi. It was also when he began to consider being an Eternal. Now, look where he was.

Nyarth's charm would always be a mystery to Jeffy. No other nyarth could do what his charm to do. He said he thought it was because he was different and more powerful while his charm acted more as a life source and now holder than anything. Nyarth treated the flower like the most delicate thing in the world, holding his link to the Eternals and all those he cared about it. Without it, Nyarth would most likely already be dead by Satashi's or Chrysalis' hand/hoof. Damn how much they all hated the Immortals...

He twisted the flower's stem and whispered something to it in a quiet voice, one filled with trust and love for the flower. He always spoke like this to it. It meant so much to him. "Siiv ahrk vothaalvut Fluttershy, lig" he spoke, shutting his eyes as he clung onto it. Jeffy knew what he said in general. Jeffy often said the same only in the ancient Eternal language. Nyarth was using his Dovahkiin tongue. 'Find and contact Fluttershy, please' was what he said. Please, a word the Pokemon barely uttered, said it to a flower.

The blue flower responded by twisted in his grasp in which he released it and allowed it to spin in the air before tilting forward and projecting a screen, showing the view of Fluttershy who had picked up her own flower and let Nyarth project his point of view from her own flower. The pink-maned pegasus sat in front of the projection, her teal eyes wide and kind and a soft smile on her face. Jeffy's fear slipped away as no sign of Discord around Fluttershy leaked into his mind. At least this would bring something good. As small as the good was, he was sure that by the end of the day, someone was going to hate him. Most likely Discord.

"Ahnok Nyarth ahrk. .. Jeffy" Fluttershy greeted, tilting her head slightly upon seeing Jeffy with Nyarth in the familiar slightly foggy world of Silent Hill. She couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong. Now that she thought about it, Jeffy, Nyarth, and Discord weren't acting right around each other lately. She had just brushed it off as each other getting into some small argument and needing to kill off steam. Maybe there was something more that she was unable to pick up. Oh dear, she sure hoped everything was alright.

"Hey Fluttershy. We have a little problem involvin' Discord, Jeffy an' Scre-" Nyarth started to explain when he realized who was still next to him, plus he sensed the tense aura radiating off Jeffy now, silencing him. "Uh, ya know who" he added quickly, taking note of the change of expression on the other Dovahkiin.

She flattened her ears to her head upon hearing this. She knew there was something going on and she hadn't thought of Screwball? How could she forget that Discord didn't know what happened to her and that his son, friend, and lover played a large part in her death and eternal suffering? She was so stupid for forgetting.

"Oh my... Does he know?" she asked, worry lacing her soft, honey-like voice.

Jeffy was having a brain-fart right about now. He couldn't even think straight since he ran away from Discord. "What?" he asked, ignoring an annoyed look from Nyarth.

Fluttershy however, didn't seem annoyed at all. The Element of Kindness and the Element of Love really did shine through here. "Discord. Does he know... what happened?" she didn't dare say exactly.

They both shook their heads. "No, but Jeffy here needs ta tell him, now. I know what happened last time but now I'm simply gonna help keep Discord unda control an' help ta show him what happened while Jeffy explains it ta him" Nyarth responded, stealing glances at Jeffy who shrank back at his explanation again. He was not looking forward to this.

"And you want me to help you to show him and keep him calm, right?" Fluttershy ended his explanation with a brief smile.

Nyarth glanced briefly down before looking to Jeffy. He didn't speak, silently motioning for him to confirm. This wasn't Meowth's idea in the first place. If Jeffy wanted her help, he would have to confirm it, not him.

Jeffy nodded to Fluttershy, fighting back against the urge to shrink further away from Nyarth's slightly cold gaze. "Yes, I-I can't do this alone and I need all the help I can get. Nyarth could be enough but you know him the best and might be able to calm him easier. If ya know what I mean" Jeffy awkwardly answered.

Fluttershy giggled slightly, her worry slipping away but still holding on. The problem wasn't fixed yet and probably wasn't going to be over by the end of the day. She knew the spirit of chaos enough to know that. Plus, she couldn't and wouldn't pick sides in this. In a way, Screwball deserved what came to her and Fluttershy enjoyed doing what she did in the Rainbow Factory but she also knew it was wrong in a way. But her Eternal side was stronger than her shy and kind-to-everything side. Maybe she should've made it more clearer to Discord than let this stem into Jeffy hiding in Silent Hill in order to hide from his father. Oh, why did things always have to end badly?

"Alright. Meet me by the infirmary. I won't let you go to him alone, even with Nyarth" she stated, narrowing her eyes in seriousness. "Vodrem vis kos saad draaf klov ahstiid" she added with a wink to Nyarth, who smirked in response. Fluttershy gently grabbed her flower and disconnected the projection causing Meowth's blue flower to twist in the air before being sucked back into his charm as if on command. The Pokemon had so many strange things about how he worked that Jeffy would never be able to learn everything there was about him.

"Alright, let's go" Nyarth stated, spinning around and conjuring up a teleportation spell once more, this time on his first try. As he began to teleport them to the infirmary, Jeffy felt like he had to ask something despite how off topic it was.

"Uh, Nyarth?"

"Yep?"

"Uh, what did Fluttershy say to you?" Jeffy didn't understand much Dovah only the basics and that had been some advanced stuff, stuff only Dovahkiins understood.

Nyarth smirked at his confusion and curiosity. Gently, he poked his friend in the side with his free paw. "Ah, don't worry 'bout dat. Plus, trust me, ya don't wanna know"

"Actually, I kinda do" Jeffy smirked his own way. If he were still a serial killer, this would be seen as creepy or downright scary. But not anymore. Despite the bloodstains all over his body and face, Cross still said his smirk made him look cute. He didn't really like that word and neither did Nyarth. Except if it was Pikachu who said it, Nyarth would probably glare daggers at whoever called him cute. Maybe Amber was an exception too. The Eternal leader was technically his adopted mother in a way.

Nyarth only seemed to smirk more. "I'll tell ya later. Now, let's focus on your insane father, Discordia an' da task at paw" he answered, returning a more serious expression. So much for being the Element of Laughter. Sometimes he wondered why Nyarth even represented Laughter but at the end of the day, it was as clear as day as to why.

They teleported without any problem to their destination and almost immediately was Fluttershy there, worry in her eyes as she looked around. She had been hovering but landed upon seeing them. She seemed alert and on edge like she was expecting something bad to happen or she was a deer searching for a predator.

"Fluttershy what's-" Jeffy began but immediately got shut up by the soft spoken pegasus.

"Shhh. It's Discord. He came looking for me but I was able to sneak away. I don't want him overhearing us so let's go together, alright?" she asked in a whisper, her question more directed at Jeffy than anyone for Nyarth already knew the plan and what he had to do. Jeffy had the real job here. Fluttershy and Nyarth were simply helping him. Jeffy had to do the real thing and he could easily try to back out. Now though, there was obviously no going back. They were going through this whether they liked it or not.

Jeffy sighed and nodded, deciding to not give a verbal answer to not alert Discord in any way.

Breathing a small sigh of relief, Fluttershy calmed herself before she straightened herself and began to walk into the infirmary. Nyarth followed besides Jeffy. With the comfort of the two by his sides he felt slightly more calmer. But calm wasn't going to solve his problems. Dammit he was so fucked...

They walked for what seemed like an hour in Jeffy mind to the main room of the infirmary. At first, no sign of Discord was shown but then, his tail appeared out of nowhere and wrapped itself around Nyarth. He hated this. But for the sake of their mission, he resisted fighting back and simply let himself fall into Discord's trap. He knew he wanted him to fight back but his change of mood caused him to materialize before him. He pouted in annoyance as he raised Nyarth carefully into the air with his tail. Nyarth narrowed his blue and black eyes at him, curling and uncurling his tail to keep himself calm. Discord stared back, his mismatched eyes glaring with annoyance.

"Oh come on now! Why you not give your good friend Discord some fun?"

Nyarth rolled his eyes and growled slightly before answering, "I dun remember any of dese experiences bein' of much fun ta me" bitterness in his voice, his slight accent laced with annoyance.

"They're fun for me though!" Discord exclaimed, ignoring the gleam of hatred brimming in the Pokemon's eyes.

"Um, Discord? Could you, um, put him down please? We have something we need to talk to you about" Fluttershy said to her lover, flying up to meet eye-level with him.

Turning his head, Discord allowed himself to smile upon seeing her beautiful face. "Oh, I was just having some fun with him, that's all" he stated, snapping his talons and teleporting Nyarth back to the ground who still glared daggers into his brain.

Discord ignored Nyarth and focused his gaze on Fluttershy, the one and only person he truly loved and trusted. She had shown his kindness and friendship when no one else would and even with him becoming an Immortal and then their leader, the Eternals' worst enemies, she still tried to uphold their friendship and now here he was as a loyal Eternal even though he seemed to still have more enemies than friends here anyways. He considered Nyarth a friend and so did he but he more hated him than loved him. But Discord just ignored that fact and pretended the hatred wasn't there.

He was more used to listening solely to Fluttershy and would normally calm down if she reassured him. Sometimes however, even her love couldn't help him keep under control. But that had only happened a few times, not too many. It was rare and he couldn't think of much to make him snap in that way. At least, not yet.

"Hello Darling Fluttershy. Whatever could be so important that some fun can't be added to it?" he innocently asked her, his eyes not moving from her teal eyes. It was now that Jeffy glanced towards Meowth who seemed to regain his composure and now looked at Discord and Fluttershy in an understanding way. He hadn't meant to, but his mind was sucked into Meowth's current thought-process of a recent memory of him and Pikachu. In it, Pikachuu lovingly hugged Nyarth and called him cute. Instead of becoming angry, he seemed to blush under the careful protection of his lover.

Jeffy and Cross never did any of that lovey-dovey stuff. And when they saw the others act like that, it made them feel awkwardly. He had no idea why he said anything, why he made himself known to his father who somehow didn't know he was there. Pulling out of Meowth's mind, he raised an eyebrow and looked back and forth between the three before sighing in thought and said, "Can you guys stop with the romantic stuff? It's really weirding me out"

Fluttershy broke her gaze first, staring at Jeffy with slight fear as to knowing that he had just made himself known to his father. Nyarth too stopped in his memories to look at him, an obvious 'are you fucking kidding me?' look on his face. Shit. He should've known better. Well there was no going now. Plus, he was going to notice sooner or later.

Discord didn't react at first and only when his eyes caught sight of Jeffy did he begin to show emotion. Fluttershy held back the urge to rush in now to calm him. She could see the twisted and evil glint in his eyes. He was onto Jeffy and this time, he was not going to let him go.

He stared at him for a few moments before smirking and narrowing his eyes. "Why, hello there Jeffy. My son" he chuckled.

His words scared Jeffy to be frank. And by scare, he meant scare. Who knew what he would do to him to get the answers of what happened to Screwball out of him. Good thing he had Meowth and Fluttershy by his side but surely they would keep their promise and help him right? Of course they would. They were like Ze. Honest when it really mattered. Now, it surely did matter.

Jeffy regained his composure and looked his father direct in the eye, taking a short moment of thought before he decided to speak. "Discord. Father. I need to tell you something but we can't do it here" As he spoke, he took note of Nyarth moving in next to him and Fluttershy hovering back over to his side.

Discord simply tilted his head, suspicion glowing in his eyes. "Alright. Lead on!" he said.

Visually, the three were shocked for a few moments. Nyarth narrowed his eyes and flattened his ears to his skull. Fluttershy gaped her mouth open and stared at her lover. Jeffy looked between the two and then back at the spirit of chaos. "Really? That's it? You're just going to agree to this and not question it?" Jeffy asked, unable to keep the shock out of his voice.

Discord simply chuckled to himself. "Oh Jeffy. What could I possibly question about what you want to talk about? It's obviously something important to all of us or else we wouldn't all be here, correct?" he inquired as Fluttershy regained herself.

The three nodded without words. Discord hopped up into the air hovering which only made Nyarth even more annoyed for him mocking him for being unable to hover himself. "Of course now let's be on our way to adventure!" With a snap of his talons, he was teleported out of the room in a flash of light leaving Fluttershy, Nyarth, and Jeffy alone.

Fluttershy looked to her companions, worry and slight fear in her kind teal eyes. "He knows what's up. We've got each others' backs but we still need to be careful" she telepathically sent the message to them.

She paused for a moment before adding onto the message. "This is going to be a long day" somberly.

The three nodded in unison before turning around and following Discord out of the infirmary. If what Fluttershy said was true, which it most likely was, seeing as how easily and quickly he agreed to the talking elsewhere, they were indeed going to have a long, long day.

Discord could tell there was something up, he always had. Everyone would not answer his question of where his daughter was and now today when he told his son of his suspicions, he had fled him in fear. There was no doubt, he knew and they were all keeping the secret from him. So why did they need to go to this hell-hole to tell him? Silent Hill scared him to be honest though he would never admit it.

The Otherworld's darkness and rust were visible and the faint cries of the trapped souls could be heard. Meowth led the four of them forward, gradually allowing his Silent Hill side to overcome his body. His skin dissolved and the various wounds and growths of a typical Silent Hill monster appeared on his body. He walked like he knew everything in the place and spoke to various monsters they passed by. Even the most scariest monster listened to him.

Jeffy remained silent, sticking close by Nyarth without ruining his train of thought. Fluttershy walked calmly behind him, besides Discord, speaking words to him to calm him. So far, it seemed to be working but it would surely not work for too long.

Nyarth could sense the trapped souls from the Rainbow Factory already, and he sent his mind forward to catch sight of where they were. When his mind caught Screwball, he shrouded the others in a darkness and left her's visible in a dark and pain filled cell away from the others. He had done this on purpose to hide her presence from both Jeffy and Discord. But now she was no longer hidden. The others were still visible but not completely there like they were just hovering in place and couldn't move. They couldn't which made their souls in Eternal pain until he reversed the spell.

Oh how much he wanted Meowzie and his parents to return to this place. They were so close to catching them. He, Mudkip, Master Meowth, Stalin, Hitler, and the German and Russian army just needed to close in at the right moment and...

Off topic. He shook his head to rid himself of the thoughts as he brought his mind back to him. Carefully, he encased the four of them in a force-barrier and opened their way into the blocked off area of the trapped souls. Nyarth was unaffected by it and simply pretended the others weren't there and began to walk towards the place where Screwball was, knowing the other three would follow or risk him kicking them out, out of his prone to severe anger in this form. Thus why he didn't look back at them, knowing at least one of them was going to hesitate. Most likely Jeffy.

He was right. Jeffy hesitated despite being fine in this part of Silent Hill. Though he knew Jadey was here too, she was nowhere the front of his mind. Everything was of what he was going to say to his father and to Screwball, knowing he would have to face both of them. At least he had both Fluttershy and Nyarth on his side. But still, he didn't know how he was going to do this. But he had to do this and there was no going back now. Narrowing his black eyes, he followed Nyarth, sticking as close to him as he could in a way of asking for at least some comfort. Nyarth kind of responded by pulling him to his side, though he didn't speak and simply stared forward, a distant look in his blackened blue and black eyes.

Fluttershy obviously didn't like the fact of those ones who were killed by herself and the others in the Rainbow Factory were here, suffering forever with Nyarth controlling everything without even thinking. It hurt her but she knew it was for the best. Before she followed Jeffy and Nyarth, she glanced towards Discord who seemed on edge and suspicious. He didn't meet her eyes with only made her more scared for what was sure to happen. Although she would understand her lover's reaction, she knew she would be unable to side with him since she herself played a large part in his daughter's demise. Sighing, her flicked her tail for him to follow before taking off towards the others.

Discord did follow her, hovering slightly in the air as he did so. He knew of this place but never was allowed in it but what did this have to do with where his daughter was. Maybe some prisoner here had the answers or something. How could he know?
