“Please, If y-you H-have t-to. R-rise H-him as y-your o-own. W-with l-little pat.” A woman, Black and purple says. I Wake up again. I’ve had that same dream the last few nights. Ever since I saw him unknowingly use his magic to do something. Oh wait I forgot!

Hi! My name is patton! Patton Hearting. Son of Winter Haze Hearting and Opal Hearting. Im a bit of a hybrid of a Guardian and A Pony. My mom And dad Used to take care a small Halve blood shadowling who I actually really know well. That havleblood used to be the Shadow Kingdoms great magic wielder’s, Nisha Cloud’s Son.

“ROMAN VAN-LORD! GET BACK HERE WITH MY BOOK!” I hear Logan Yell out. I sigh a bit. We all Live in this huge house. We actually built the land and stayed in two apartments that Roman and Remus’s Parents Owned. We only had to pay for one apartment as long as we helped the staff and their Parents. That was until a year ago. We all moved Here. The house was built for each of us. A huge room that leads to a mini meeting area with three other bedroom doors and a sliding door to the hallway. We have two of these. One is shared between Me, Logan, and Roman. Virgil, Remus, and Janus shared the other. Thomas however slept in the room more down the hall that holds guest bedrooms.

“Oh  I'm sorry Pocket Protractor! I wanna see what your reading!” I hear Roman yell to logan. I sigh and move my way to not be noticed by the two As I head into the hallway. I succeed and I walk down the hallway to the staired to go into the actual Living room and head into the kitchen. I started to make breakfast when Glover, Sanders, Both Van-Lords, Smores, and Cloud.

“Hey patton! What are you cooking this time?” Roman Asks.

“Pancakes, Bacon, Eggs, and sausage! Oh and Biscuits!” I say happily. I'm hoping that my worry is not showing. I know I shouldn't hide feelings and all that But I have an uneasy feeling and That dream didn’t help at all. 

“Yum! I’ll Help you.” Thomas says

“Ssssssame Here.” Janus says following Thomas into the Kitchen. We three are the only ones who actually can cook meals. I made Thomas Learn how to cook once I found out he couldn’t when we first started to live together. Thomas was actually 20 like me but he just turned 20 not too long ago. Virgil’s birthday was coming up. Janus’s Birthday was a few weeks after mine so he was also 20 years old. Roman and Remus were 23 and Logan was 24. I smiled softly as we brought everything to the kitchen table to eat. I smiled pushing away any uneasy feeling I had as we talked and ate breakfast. After breakfast We ended up walking around town. It was actually a town that had a unittien safe collage and it was actually beautiful and had amazing people. I had met princess Fluttershy’s friends before and me and Pinkie pie got along quite well. We both like to get to know each person who is new in our community and try to make as many friends as possible. 

I looked across the street we were on sensing unittien magic that wasn't mine or…… ya. Anyways I spot this group of people who I don't recognize except for one person. He was out of the group against the wall smoking. I sighed softly before coming back to the conversation.

“OH I'M SORRY MR SMORES!” Roman yells out.

“Really Sir Sings a lot? You are going to be calling the smartest one here his last name?” Virgil asked.

“ I dont know what you are talking about Stormcloud.”

“Now, let's not call eachother names kiddos” I say, interrupting them a bit.

“Aw come on Pat.” I wanted to freeze a bit but I kept walking to avoid any worry. Nothing but that dream and the uneasiness is bothering me. 

“Me and Princey here are just teasing each other.” Virgil continues.

“Ya. And I just added Mr. Pocket Protractor over here into it.”

“ I’ll ask you to refrain from involving me into your silly name game.” Logan says as we continue.

“Remus, How far are we from this place you wanted to go?” Janus asks

“Don't worry. It's not far. Almost there. Just… Listen.” Remus responds. I was confused a bit before I heard music playing.

“Are we going to a Club?” I asked. Remus giggles and nods. Then looks at me.

“How did you know? We can't even hear it right now.” He asks. My heart stopped for a second. I forgot that as a Unittien I have way better hearing then the others.

“Well one I have very good hearing, remember? Also Context clues. You like going to bars and clubs and I remember hearing you talk about a club you wanted us to go to last night AND You are humming a bit.” I explain. It was true. I never Actually told them That I was a Unittien but I have told them things like I have really good hearing and smell. I’ve actually had one or two instances that I was kinda caught doing magic but I managed to make them believe that It was actually a dream they had or that they were dreaming.

“We are here.” Remus says after a minute. He had bought it. Logan had even backed me up with my statement.

We entered the building after having ID checked. We all go and have fun. I just have two drinks while I watch everyone else drink and party around. I smile and watch as I see Roman and Remus Pulling up Logan, Virgil, Thomas and Janus to the Karaoke stage and they start singing.

“Hey, I wasn’t expecting someone as adorable as you to be here. Especially in a club like this during this time of day.” Someone said. I look over and See a male. He could easily take me down. Even if I did use my powers the moment He had me pinned so I couldn’t move my arms I would have a small chance of actually getting out of his grip.

“Anyways I can sense it. Wanna take a breather outside real quick so no one here and we can talk?” He asks me. Another unittien? Yes. I just now realised it. I nodded and turned to the bartender giving him some money for the drinks before following the guy. I made sureI stayed a bit away and snuck so no one noticed yet. I was also being careful around this guy. I think I have seen him before, But I don't remember where. We get outside through the back door. That uneasy feeling resurfaced but this time even Stronger. I then realised that we weren't alone at all.

“You tricked me” I say matter of factly.

“True but what else was I supposed to say with a hybrid unittien who obviously needed to be tricked.” He says before smirking. My eyes widen as someone grabs me from behind and starts to drag me over to a van. I yell out the best I could panicking a bit. The person behind me covered my mouth as the guy who tricked me had dropped something of his and making sure that if I dropped anything it wasn’t left behind. As I struggled and yelled while being pulled into the van 

HELP!

Virgil’s p.o.v:

We were singing and I noticed the back door open a bit with a man walking out. I then see Patton Following not too far behind. He did look careful as he walked outside. I then got a bad feeling. We soon ended the song and the others started to go look for patton.

“Now where is the small bean that is also dad?” Roman asks looking around.

“Actually I saw him go through the back entrance. Come on. I'm actually getting an uneasy feeling.” I say before leading them to the back entrance quickly. We make it outside and there isn’t any sign of patton. But there was a phone outside. I look at it a bit and look back at the group.

“Where is patton!?”

“Idk!”

“We should have kept a closer eye on him!”

“This is his first time going to a place like this! I hope this doesn’t make him feel like these places aren't safe!” Thomas says

I look down at the phone and turn it one a bit. It was fully battery and it wasn’t exactly locked. I slide the thing and the first thing that pops up is a contacts list. I look through it and see a few things like people's names. Then I see one that stands out. UTHybreedKB. Weird. I look to see any texts and I see a conversation from today that started at the top of the screen.

[UTHybreedKB: Do you have a plan yet?]

[Me: Yes actually. I plan on following them a bit with my men and give them direction to wait. He is small so I'm sure that one of my men can sneak up on him and keep him from using his arms.]

[UTHybreedKB: That seems like a good idea but what if you can't get him alone?]

[Me: We might have to knock out any of the ones we cant just take with us. (Aka basically anyone else other then Me, Patton, and sort of Thomas?)]

[UTHybreedKB: Ok. just make sure you dont take that shadowling. Or hurt him. You and I both know the laws and the punishment if we break that new unittien law.]

“ Hey Logan. You’ve been researching Unittiens and their culture a bit. Right?” I ask, looking at logan a bit. He nods a bit

“Yes I have. I recently have learned about some unittien laws that we actually follow that isnt like our own Laws. Why?”

“Just…. What happens if you take or hurt a…… shadowling?” I ask.

Oh another word for shadows. They started using that about 12 years ago for young shadows. It actually means a halve blood or a young shadow. Anyways If you end up hurting a shadowling really bad or you kidnap them, You can be charged with Shadow endangerment. That had became a law when before the Last lead unittien queen, Queen natura, went to war with crupted shadows. The reason she had made it was because A bunch of shadows that lived in the shadow kingdom had either been corrupted or had been killed during an attack on that kingdom. If you end up doing that AND know that they were a shadow. Doesnt matter if its havleblood or if its a full blooded unittien. You can and most Likely be KILLED. But why do you wanna know that?”

“I’ll explain in a minute. Would you know What UTHybreedKB Could possibly mean?” I asked again.

“ With what you just asked me a moment ago, It could mean ‘Unittien Hybreed Kidnapping Boss. Are you looking through that phone?” Logan asked me as I go back to looking at the phone. I nod and exit out of the messages and go into photos. Thats when I gasped a bit and drop the phone. Everyone saw what I saw and gasped a bit.

“We need to show the police.” Roman said. I just nodded in surprise. There was pictures and I mean Pictures of patton. A couple was from today and some were also drawn over them. There was one I noticed that only had me and Patton at the park the other day. I was crossed out in that one and it said dont touch. Remus Picked it up while Roman went to pay for all of usw. We then Headed for the Police station. Luckily it wasn't too far.

“ Excuse us. But we need to file a report.” Remus yells out once we enter. It was pretty empty today so ya.

“What kind of report?”

“The closest one to kidnapping.” Roman responded.

“Closest we have is a missing person case. I can put most likely a kidnapping on it. Name and anything that might help?” The person at the desk asks, sounding a bit more awake then when she asked what kind of report.

“Name of the person ‘missing’ is Patton Hearting. We found a phone in the area he was last seen in. It isnt his phone.” Thomas says as Remus Hands the person the phone. The exact Phone that Had all those Pictures of Patton. I should have followed him when I saw him go out that damn door. We finish getting the form filled. I had noticed How The person behind the desk had tensed up with patton’s name and Was obviously worried. They probably know Patton. I mean honestly, Who doesnt?

We then went back home for a bite. I had went to make sure that Patton didn’t just go home forgetting to tell us. We all also kept our phones on hand. Just in case. We had given them all our numbers so when patton was found. They would call.
