Roman faced off against the Dragon Witch who was currently holding Patton in her firm grasp. Her claws brushing against the moral sides face, cutting thin lines into his freckled cheek.

Roman grit his teeth and brandished his sword, mind mulling over how he's going to get out of this one. Everything had been going smoothly until she attacked them. Now, Virgil and Logan were on their way but Roman wasn't sure they'd get here on time. Roman was running out of options.

Roman glanced back at Patton who met his gaze with the confidence Roman was proud of. Understanding shone in Patton's eyes as he silently urged Roman to retreat, but Roman Just ground his teeth harder in denial. He refused to go along with that plan! He could figure this out, This wasn't over yet!

"Let him go," Roman growled at the witch who smirked nastily at him.

"And lose this precious bargaining chip? No way." She hissed and tightened her grip on Patton. Beads of blood rolled down Patton's cheek at the added pressure and a quiet whine escaped the moral sides throat.

Roman couldn't attack while she was holding Patton but that also meant she couldn't attack him. They were at a standstill but that didn't make Roman feel any better. He had to stall for time.

Out of the corner of his eye, Roman spotted Virgil, his eyes glowing a dark purple as he slipped furtively out of view. Roman met eyes with Logan who's silently communicated, 'Go now!' Then Logan disappeared back into the bush and the Dragon Witch turned to see what Roman was looking at.

Wasting no time, Roman lunged, pretending to swing his sword at her face. She whipped back around and held Patton as her shield, what she wasn't expecting was an electrified punch from behind that sent both her and Patton toppling to the ground.

Roman grabbed Patton and yanked him away, hugging the moral side to his chest while Logan and Virgil kept the Dragon Witch's attention.

"Are you okay?" Roman asked Patton, brushing the hair softly out of his face. Patton nodded but his lip trembled and tears welled in his eyes. "Oh honey, it's okay. Everything's okay, I'm so sorry."

"N-no, it's- it's not your fault," Patton said, wiping at his eyes with the heels of his palms.

"Come on, let's get you out of here," Roman said, lifting Patton just as a rain of blinding, thunderous lightning bolts split the sky and hit the witch who screeched in pain. Virgil could be seen amongst the lightning with his hands extended, furious eyes glowing a vibrant purple. Logan appeared beside Roman and motioned for him to follow.

"What about Virgil?" Patton cried, his voice swallowed up in Virgil's storm.

"He'll be fine, he told me to get you out of here. He's got this covered." Logan assured and It began to pour as they fled. Dark, swirling clouds moving in quicker than what would be considered natural.

Roman swung open the door that led back home and they stumbled into the living room.

Roman placed Patton onto the couch and moved to re-enter the imagination but Logan stopped him with a hand.

"Don't," Logan warned. "He's got it covered."

"But-" Roman began just as the door swung open and Virgil fell through the entrance. He was soaked to the bone and his hands were burned but didn't look seriously hurt so Roman helped pull him to his feet.

"Virgil!" Patton cried and Roman carefully placed the anxious side beside Patton. "What happened?"

"She's gone for now." Virgil rumbled, leaning against Patton who cradled him softly.

"That lightning storm was quite impressive, I-" Logan was cut off by Roman who loudly cried,

"It was AMAZING! I didn't know you could do that!"

Virgil blushed and to hide his growing smile, he buried his face in the crook of Patton's arm.

"You did a really great job Kiddo. Thanks for saving me." Patton said softly to Virgil and looked up at Roman and Logan. "You guys too, thank you."
