Micro

“Mom!” Micro yells as he pops into his Sanctuary. Instead of a relieved cry in response, he heard Rodin’s voice break through.

“She drank too much in worry and passed out,” he says as he cleans a glass. “You were gone for about 10 hours.”

Micro looked at him in confusion for a moment before face palming. The damn time dilation. He had fought Sing and Cad for at least 10 minutes. 10 minutes out there, 10 hours in here.

“When did she pass out, and where is she now?”

“About 2 hours after she came in, and your room.”

“And… did she say anything?”

“Other than being worried about you no matter what I tried to tell her…” Rodin started before trailing off.

With a sigh, Micro made his way to his room in the Sanctuary. After stepping in, to his relief his mom was still asleep. Creating some clones, he had them grab some items from around the room to drop into their Inventory. He already would have to explain his powers and why he’s being hunted. He did not need to deal with her finding out just how kinky his girlfriends and him could get (especially Fluttershy. The thing that girl wants done to her sometimes. Add in Chara’s dominant attitude and the shows they put on…). Once he finished cleaning those things up, he sat in a deck chair he dragged over to the beside.

Now, he had a choice. On the one hand, he could easily pass this off as a drunken dream. It was now night in the real world so he could get her onto the couch and say he found her passed out. If he really wanted to, he could say that Frida had visited and they had a small party or drinking contest. Overall, it was a simple plan.

On the other hand… did he want to? Did he want to make it so she didn’t know what was happening? And even then, how long would it last. Tirek clearly knew who he is… Who his mom is! If he does pretend this is nothing, would she become a target again? Almost for sure. Even if he didn’t want to tell her and expose her to the threats he was facing, she would end up in the cross hairs anyway. At least if he tells her, she could be protected. He could let her keep her key to the Sanctuary. He could jump to her side and defend her if she is in trouble.

He was wrong. There was no choice.

“Mhmmm…” He heard from the bed. Looking back, he saw his mom starting to stir. Well… time to take care of this. “Mi..cro-OW! My head is pounding. I must’ve drank too much last night. I had a weird dream to-”

“Mom,” Micro started wondering how exactly he should approach this topic.

“What is it dear?” Software started, then she took a look around the room. “Where....where are we? And...what’s that on the door handle?”

Micro turned crimson and decided to get one thing out of the way first. Making a handsign, he created a Shadow Clone. His mom went wide eyed as she saw an exact copy of her son appear.

“I have a lot to tell you about.”

Dream World

“I can only keep this thing back for so long!” Bloody growled out as she had the Blaster fire another beam into Pyramid head. She even commanded the damn thing to head but into the monster to try and physically push it back.

“I’m trying punta!” Sombra spits back as she continues pushing out the green biotics.

“Uhhh...uhhhh…”

The girls (minus Silver who was building barriers and Bloody who was physically blasting Pyramid head) turn and see Luna starting to stir.

“Wha...what happened?”

“Fina-Fucking-ly!” Bloody shouted back. Luna looked up and her eyes went wide when she saw Pyramid Head trying to break through.

“No…” Luna started muttering. “I drew him toward you all… I’m meant to defend the dream world…”

Bloody hissed as the Gaster Blasters holding Pyramid Head’s arm shattered as the muscle’s flexed. With its arms free it swung the huge cleaver, smashing the larger Blaster in front of it to bits.

“Stop it Luna!” Scootaloo said as she shakes the vice principal. “That thing feeds on regret! You need to calm down!”

Luna tried and she knew, but she only felt more regret well up in her. She was the reason this thing was so strong. She was the reason these girls were now in trouble.

With a roar, Pyramid Head slammed its cleaver into the barrier. Silver stumbled back with a cry at the hit and her first barrier cracked. Sombra sent out purple biotics to try and weaken the monster. Bloody summoned Izanagi to her side and had him thrust his spear forward, sending a stream of lightning crashing into the hulking monstrosity.

Diamond growled in frustration and turned, smacking Luna across the face.

“For crying out loud you thousand year old bitch!” Diamond spat. “What the hell did you do that was so bad? I nearly forced Micro into a life as a fucking slave! I abused the only friend I ever had until Micro’s golden heart led him to help me! Look at me now. Am I beating myself up over the past? NO! So what the hell did you do that was worse than that?”

“I nearly killed the world…” Luna said. If not for Pyramid head still roaring in the background and the fight to hold him back, silence would have reigned.

“Oh,” Diamond muttered. “Well...Fuck.”
