Phos was WHAT?! Part-3

"It's painful, whether they are here or gone"

"Phos do you get it?"

"OH!"

"Then, give these feelings a name"

"HUH?"

"Why..."

"If it has a name, then it isn't so scary right?"

"An Encyclopedia is for categorizing everything I..."

*Bortz walks up to Dia and starts pulling on their severed hand*

*Slip*

"D"

"Don't!"

"AH...!"

*Bortz pulls Dia's hand all the way off and a bright rainbow glow is released*

*Rrrrrriiiiiiinnnnnng*

"That sound a minute ago..."

"I'm sorry Phos I put you in danger..."

"I thought it would be fine but..."

"YOU!"

"Just when I realized you'd gone off somewhere, you were trying that strange fighting style again! I told you, that stunt's too hard on you! You can't do it!"

"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!"

"But"

"I don't want to always just be protected by you and Rain..."

"Even though I'm a Diamond too, I'm of no use at all, that's not right"

"I..."

*Dia starts shaking in sadness while holding their hand-less arm*

"It's the same, whether I'm here or not, isn't it?"

*Borts still holding onto Dia's arm pulls them closer, as Dia lowers their head*

"What mindless-"

"BORTZ"

*Phos on their knees and holing onto Dia's legs peaks their head off to the side and start trash talking Bortz*

"YOU BASTARD!"

*Phos goes between Dia's legs, as Dia squeals in embarrassment*

"Don't you bully Dia"

*Bortz looking extremely annoyed starts to unsheathe their sword*

"AH! Um, you see, I just happened to run into Phos here, and I was giving them some advice"

"I don't know what it's for, but they can't come up with any ideas...!"

"Could you help them out, Bortz?'

*Bortz sheathes their sword and takes it off their waist as they approach Dia and Phos*

*Click*

"I could"

"No way!"

*Bortz uses the sheathed sword to pick Phos up by their neck tie, then throws them back down*

"Even if we help them out once on a whim, there's no end to it"

*Bortz uses the downwards motion of throwing Phos to unsheathe their sword and points it at Phos*

"I'll turn them into dust, worries and all"

*Dia rushes to cover Phos as Bortz is about to strike, but Bortz stops in shock and rushes past them then stops and looks up in absolute shock*

"AH!"

"HUH?!"

*Dia and Phos turn around, and they are put in shock as well just above them is a sunspot of the likes they have never seen before. It completely ignores them and heads straight for the school*

"It went right by us... Even though Dia and Scrap are both here..."

"It's too big for a Cloud"

"But anyway they're right over the school, Sensei should have already notic..."

*Phos Opens their mouth wide when sudden realization hits them*

"AH! Sensei's napping"

"WHA!"

"WHAT!"

"That's"

"Not good...!"

------POV change to Rain-----

*Rain, Euclase, and Jade are walking together down the hall*

"Jeez"

"That Phos..."

"They didn't even have the pad they got from Sensei anymore, I said Dia's name without thinking, but I hope they haven't gone off to get in the way again"

"Well if Dia and Bortz are together it should be fine right? I know Phos is scared of Bortz so there shouldn't be any problems"

"Hopefully they'll give it a rest while Sensei is asleep, at least"

"Ahh... Euclase, Rain this is just between us, but waking sensei up"

*Jade has a flash back of trying to wake Sensei up by punching him in the back of the head until their hand breaks off*

"AHH, so that's how you broke your hand huh?"

"Yes Rain"

*All three of them stop walking while they talk for a bit*

"It's more of a struggle than fighting those Lunarians"

"W, well, don't worry too much, even if it's phos we're talking about, I'm sure they won't get themselves into something every single da..."

*Euclase is engulfed by a shadow as they turn around and look up to see a giant object heading straight for the trio*

*BOOM!*

*Jade, Euclase, and Rain stare at it in shock as Dia dragging Phos comes running from behind it*

"Jade! Rain! Euclase! Above you!"

*Dia points above them with their broken arm. The trio look up to see the bottom of a massive cloud*

"When did that happen?!"

*Bortz uses the object on the ground as a base board and jumps off it, and to the cloud*

"But"

*Jade and Rain say the same thing in unison*

""Ah, Bortz is here, then there's nothing else for us to do""

"Jade! Rain!"

"Apologies..."

"Heh, sorry"

"Phos"

*Diamond launches Phos across the pond and straight into Rain*

*Rain catches the thrown Phos*

"O why hello Phos nice of you to drop in"

"You Again!"

"This time it isn't my fault!"

*Dia unsheathes their sword and launches off a lily pad in the pond*

----POV change Dia------

"Get back"

"But, there might be something I can..."

*Bortz jumps up and destroys a bunch of arrows that were launched at them. As Dia looks on in awe*

"I'll tell you what you can do"

*Bortz destroys the cloud* "Nothing!"

"Yeah, I know. But"

----POV change Rain----

"Those two are so difficult"

"I told you not to get in their way!"

"So? Did you ask Dia? Is your work making any progress?"

"Oh, MR.Scholar! You have good timing"

"Hmm?"

*Euclase points at the object on the ground*

"Please, check this out"

"Ah! Well you see I'm busy right now"

"Since it stayed after the "Lunarians" dispersed, I bet its nothing from the moon it might be a big discovery!"

"Alright, I grant Euc the honor of making this great discovery you speak of"

"It's too big of an honor for me"

"I grant lase the honor"

"It's tooooo heavy for me"

"Listen here. You do that properly alright?"

"Let us know when you're finished"

"Let me know if you find anything interesting"

"HUH?! You're serious?"

---POV change Phos---

*The trio start walking off leaving Phos alone with the object*

"Seriously!"

"""Of course"""

"I don't have any time to be doing this!"

"I have an immediate Prob-"

*Phos stops talking in shock and looks above them when they see strange shadows on them. They see a strange creature*

*The creature opens its mouth and engulfs Phos. Phos drops Dia's hand on the ground*

*Thunk!*

*The Trio stop walking and turn around, and see Phos getting eaten*

"Uh..."

'So Hot'

*Bortz and Dia also watch from where they are*

'I can't move'

---POV change Rain---

"WHAT?"

*Euclase and Rain unsheathe their swords and rush this new creature. Euc strike first cutting the creature's head in half. As they draw their sword back they look at it in shock, Rain hits the shell and bounces off shattering the blade*

"It broke, No it mel..."

*Jade tackles Euclase out of the way as the creature attacks, it grazes Jade's leg*

"Jade! Your leg, it's melting!"

---Pov change Phos---

*Phos inside the creature as it dissolves them cries out their pleads for help*

"Someone"

"Help Me"

"AH!"

--- POV change 3rd person ---

*As Jade holding Euclase, and Rain watch Bortz and Dia come from above and strike the creature with their swords. Bortz lands on the shell of the creature*

"Hey, Scrap! Where are you?!"

"I'm talking to you"

"Say something!"

*Bortz uses their hair to attack since their sword dissolved*

"UGH"

*Bortz lands on a pillar with their face displaying great shock and confusion*

"Bortz is"

"Melting"

"Impossible"

"WHAT!?"

*Borts grabs a strand of their hair and looks at it still in shock*

"Is it Heat?"

"Acid?"

"A weapon intended to melt us down and take us to the moon huh"

"And the one who got caught was that frail little idiot, of all people..."

*Dia has a worried look on their face*

"This is the first time"

"Something like this has happened, can we return to normal even if we melt?"

*Bortz shows anger, then no expression at all*

"Hey, Scrap!"

"What's going on in there?! If you're just going to wait for fortune to come and find you"

"You'd be better off disappearing"

---POV change Pgos---

*Phos almost completely gone speaks their last words*

"No"

"Help me"

"If I'm"

"Gone"

"Cinnabar"

"Going to"

"Stuck like that"

"Fore"

"Ver"

*Phos completely melts and melds with the shell*

---POV change 3rd person---

"Tch, no reaction huh"

"Jeez"

"You little handful...!"

*Dia grabs Bortz's hair before they can attack the creature again*

"Bortz! There!"

*Dia Points to a spot on the shell where Knocking can be heard*

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

"Look! Phos"

*Knock*

"Maybe Phos found something"

"PHOS?!"

"Where are you?"

*Knock* *Knock*

*Bortz and Dia launch off the pillar they were on towards the creature and land hard kicks on the same spot*

"Get Back!"

"But"

*The creature strikes where they were, as Bortz and Dia jump up to avoid it. They go in for another strike this time going through the shell as the jump off and drag the creatures organs with them*

"KYUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!"

*The creature rears up in pain as it flips over and falls into the pond. Everyone jumps away from the ensuing tidal wave of salty pond water*

"well then"

"That was..... Interesting"

"That was easy"

*everyone is standing on the edge of the pond looking at the sinking shell, as they see a slug float to the surface*

"in the end, it was just some sort of slug"

"To think it would just shrink in the salt water"

"If we had a moment to collect ourselves we would have realized it...!"

"What a waste of our energy thanks to that idiot getting caught right away!"

"B, But thanks to Phos, we figured out its weak point"

"Praise them a little okay..."

"Why do I have to praise them, I'll turn them into dust once they're back"

"Jade! Rain! Euclase! Hurry and get Scrap's scraps together"

*Everyone except for Dia jump into the pond*
