Karl's POV
I reopened my eye's as I yawned, 'Looks like I feel asleep' I thought

Then I felt weight on shoulder, I looked to see Ponk still sound asleep, snoring softly

I smiled, but then a though came to mind, 'How could he still be able to breath with that mask on, I should take it off-'

Wait no, I can't do that... It'll be rude of me, and that's his privacy that I shouldn't cross. I pulled my arm back as I instead patted him

'Hm wonder what Sapnap and Quackity are doing?'

~With Quackity and Sapnap~

"Ahh! Fire! Fire!"

"Throw f*ckin water at it!" Sapnap yelled trying to stomp on the flames that were now on the floor

"Doesn't water make it stronger?!"

"What the heck you learned that from?!" Sapnap yelled at Quackity

"...Tik Tok, Oh sh-"

~Back To Karl's POV~

'I think their doing well!' I smiled, but it soon disappeared as I felt someone watching me

I looked around holding Ponk a bit closer to me, making sure he'll be safe

Then a strange figure came to view, it was none other than that Lemon God, and he looked... irrated

"O-oh hey" I whispered

He mumbled something, but noticed Ponk around my arm's.

'Oh snap, please don't get mad' I panicked as I gave him a fake smile

Instead of snapping at me, he looked... calm?

"Normally I wouldn't approve of other's holding my love, but you are an exception" He smiled warmly

H-huh? What?

Thoughts raced through my head as I spoke, "W-what do you mean by that? I'm a bit confused

He tilted his head, "You don't... Remember?" He sighs, "Nevermind Then, but I trust you that you won't bring harm to him or take him away from me... right?"

I didn't know how to respond. Ponk doesn't belong to him, but how should I respond?

Just then Ponk woke up

'Saved' I smiled as he yawned

He looked directly at me and quickly pulled away, flustered of what position he slept in

"O-oh hey!" Ponk stuttered

Ponk's POV

Oh how embarrassing! Snap, and he's looking at me with those adorable eye's! Dang Quakity and Sapnap chose a good cute guy

"Ello Ponk" Karl chuckled

"Hello again, heh" I turn to face... The Lemon hoe- er God, damnit Foolish why are you making me saying that now

"H-hey-" Then it hit me, "W-wait please don't Karl! He did nothing wrong! I swear! I-I was just dozing off, and-and-"

The Lemon God stopped me, "Love, I know that you would never betray me, and also I trust Karl, we meet before"

"Meet before? What do you mean?-"

"Questions answered on another day, I gotta do some... Business with someone" He quickly spoke

He waved farewell as he faded away. I looked at Karl who was looking away from me...

Something is telling me he's hiding something

"Karl? What did he meant by that?" I asked, sternly

He just stayed quite, as I asked again, "Karl, don't make me repeat myself-"

Nothing, and I grew annoyed, "Karl!"

He quickly covered his ears, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry,I'm sorry, I'm sorry, don't get mad..."

My heart dropped, sh!t I went too far, "H-hey no, I should be the one apologizing, I shouldn't have yelled or force you"

Karl looked at me, and gave me a weak smile

"Hey let's go visit the other's!" I suggested

Karl agreed as we ran to the main part of the SMP.

As we walked and talked, I could feel the urge to go down to the Egg as we passed it

I stopped in my track's as Karl looked at me confused. He went over, grabbed my hand and started to walk away with me

Just then I was pulled back. I looked to see Bad, smiling all innocently

"Hello Ponk and Karl!" Bad welcomed

Karl being the loveable goof ball replied, forgetting who Bad served, "Oh hey Bad! How are you?"

He responded with well as I could feel his grip on my shoulder get tighter

"Sorry Karl, but I just gotta pull Ponk here aside" Bad spoke dragging me away from Karl

"Wait why?" Karl asked, confused on why Bad was being a bit persistent

Bad sighed as he snapped his fingers, "Ant be a good friend and keep Karl here"

Ant came out of nowhere and tried to block Karl from seeing us

"Ant please get out of my view" Karl begged, trying to tip-e-toe

Ant didn't listen as He did his job. Bad dragged me away as I saw all of that happened

Once we were quite far away, Bad spoke, "How's it going with that... Lemon God?"

Wait... when have I told him he's a God?

Bad saw my confused look, and explained, "The Egg told me, and it misses you being there"

I sigh, "Bad, I'm sorry, but I'm trying to stay away from the egg"

Bad sighs, "Nevermind that then, but how's the situation with him?"

"...Bad...I'm scared..." I mumbled

"Wait did he hurt you?! Did he hurt your lovers?" Bad asked, concerned for me

"W-wait N-no...I don't think...but Bad I had this horrible dream that he killed my lover's" I soon started to cry, "T-then he asked I-if I loved, a-and I said no, and that b!tch killed everyone!"

"Oh dear..." Bad mumbled

As Bad tried to comfort me, Karl came out of nowhere and hugged me tightly

"How dare you Bad" Karl hissed

"Wait no Karl it's not how it looks like- Wait where's Ant?" Bad asked, looking around

"I gave him scratches, and he soon fell asleep on my lap, and I gently laid him down on the grass" Karl explained

I giggled as Bad sighed in disappoint in Ant

"So what did you do Bad to make Ponk cry?" Karl asked

"N-nothing! I would never do that to my friend" Bad protested

"Karl don't worry, it was just about... The dream I had" I said

Karl let go of me and sighed in relief, "That's good to hear, but if your lying to me I will harm you Badboyhalo"

Bad's POV
I can forget how scary Karl could be once he becames protected of someone

"A-alright!" I happily spoke, trying to hide fear from my voice

I could see Ponk clearly scared of Karl since he rarely See's this side of him

Then I remembered something, "Hey Karl?"

"Hm?"

"Would you be interested on joining the egg-"

Ponk instantly stopped me, "H-hey we should get back!"

I gave Ponk a stare, but gave up eventually

"Alright! Let's go! Bye Bad!" Karl spoke happily, dragging Ponk away with him

Once out if view, I felt bad for Ponk tying to deal with that God. It must be a real struggle keeping with his fake 'love' act while trying to mantain his actual love interest

Then I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned to see Ant, a bit upset of what he had done

"Sorry Bad-"

"No, no, it's alright, you did some part of your job, so you did well" I said

Ant nodded as I walked back to the Egg, "We should head back now, we don't want to keep the Egg waiting"

Lemon's God POV

Welp one done a few more to kill or torture, but hey they might join me

'Who would be in my side tho?' I thought as I watched a village being covered in vines. The villagers suffocating as the vines choked them

The golems crushed by the vines

'Hm...Oh! I got it! I could ask the egg!' I thought as I clapped my hands, 'But it'll be quiet a challenge tho'

I shrug, 'I'll do whatever it takes to get rid of the other God's including Dream XD and his siblings...but yet again I might spare them'

I walk away from the village, 'Well time to hunt down another God'

What a good way to End it! Well RIP to the Lemon God next victim.
