I know I haven't updated this story in a while, but it's heard to think of things when you have writer's block. But here's what I came up with. I hope you like it

*3rd Person's POV*

*Astral's Mind*

Astral opened his green eyes tiredly. "Dark Mist..." Astral whispered, half conscious. Dark Mist's anime side looked back at Astral slightly. 'How is this happening? He can't be waking up now. He thought to himself worriedly.

"I can feel it." Dark said getting everyone's attention. "What can you sense Dark?" Dark Mist asked while still keeping his site on there anime counterparts. "It's Astral, he's waking up." Dark replied.

Dark Mist's anime side disappeared from his alternate side's view. "W-where did he go?!" Dark Mist said surprised looking around for his amine double.

"Ahhh!" Dark Mist whipped his head around to see Dark clutching his head in pain on his knees. Dark Mist ran to his side.

"Dark, Dark! What's wrong with you?!" Dark Mist asked urgently. Dark couldn't respond, for he was in to much pain to speak.

"Heh heh heh." Dark Mist turned his head to see in anime side with his hand on Astral's crystal. "What have you done to Dark?!" Dark Mist demanded.

His anime side just smirked at him, and pushed some of his power into the crystal that Astral was in. A red glow appeared around Astral, causing him to whimper in pain. Which caused Dark to cry out.

"Ahhh!" Dark cried out as his headache got worse. "Dark!" Dark Mist said worriedly, looking back at him. "Surrender and the pain will stop." Anime Dark Mist side said. "We will NEVER surrender to you." Dark Mist growled back.

"Fine, have it your way." His anime side replied. The red glow around Astral brighten slightly, causing both Astral and Dark's cries of pain to get louder.

*Real World*

"Something doesn't seem right here." Demon said. "What do you mean?" Black Mist asked. "One of them is getting hurt, but I can't tell which one." Dumon replied back. "All we can do is wait until they wake up." Vector said not looking away from the monitor.

*Astral's Mind*

The red glow only intensified, making Astral shift uncomfortably in his crystal. While Dark was on his side holding his head in pain, trying to contain the pain.

"Well, what's it going be? Are you willing to let your friends wither in pain, or are you going to surrender? Dark Mist's anime side ask tauntingly.

Dark Mist looked back at Dark, then to Astral. 'Is it really worth it for them to go through all this pain?' He asked himself. Dark Mist looked at Astral as he withered in pain.

"Is it really worth it for them to go through this pain?" Dark Mist's anime side ask, getting his true side's attention. "I... I don't know." Dark Mist replied back. "Think about it, you're the one who's causing them all this pain. But if you surrender, all there pain will disappear. All you have to do is give up control. The anime side said in a convincing voice.

"Maybe you're right." Dark Mist said as his eyes turned green. "You do want there pain to stop, don't you? The amine side asked. "Yes... I do want there pain to stop." Dark Mist replied back, sinking to his knees. "Can't you sense there distress? They are bugging for this pain to stop. The anime side said increasing his power, thus increasing the pain Astral and Dark felt.

Dark Mist looked over at Dark as he withered in agony. "You can stop all there pain, just let me have control." "N-no... don't listen to him Dark Mist. D-don't let him take control." Dark said through his pain. Dark Mist barley understood Dark's words.

The anime side increased his power, making the red glow around Astral to become even stronger. Dark cried out in pain before passing out. Dark Mist was looking down at the ground, not sure what to do anymore. Until he heard Dark cry out in pain. He looked over to see Dark unconscious, twitching in pain.

What will you do now, true side? The anime personally asked him as he appears beside Dark Mist.

What will Dark Mist do now that Dark is unconscious? Will he surrender to his anime personally, or will he fight back? Found out in chapter 6. Bye readers! See you all next time!
