Bitty Surprise - Chapter 5 - Pov Killer
We are back to my upload Sunday :3 Which means more cute bitties for all of you! <3
First Chapter: [Here] AO3 link: [Here]
*---------------------------------*
Killer can honestly say he doesn’t like humans.
And that is mostly because this stupid dumb lady doesn’t stop trying to steal their bitty!
Well she is trying to pay them money for it but it is still stealing! They said No! Leave them be!
Even going as far as to try and get Cross or Killer himself to sell little Axe to her.
Killer however can say that telling the lady that they live in a castle and that Nightmare is a land owner and landlord was very satisfying.
Though her flirting is fucking weird. The look of pure disgust on Nightmare’s face however had been amazing and hilarious. Also very reassuring but that is beside the point and only for Killer to know.
Killer grins at Axe “So what do you normally do for fun? We are trying to figure out what to get you little guys hobby wise but we keep drawing up blank.”
Axe raises a brow and raises the partly carved wood statue.
Killer nods “More tools for carving. I will try to search for tools your size for that.” And learn more about the craft as a whole. He knows there will be wood chips coming off and they will need a way to clean the bitty housing to make sure the wood chips doesn’t harm either bitty. Can they order the tiniest Roomba ever? That could work… With that in mind a bigger Roomba for the bitties to sit on like a cat would be really cute.
More screaming from the front of the store and Killer glances over before looking at Axe “I honestly don’t get why they don’t just ban that woman.” Axe nods as he looks annoyed in the same direction.
Killer chuckles “And she keeps bringing that brat too. Even after both Ramfy and Lambert told her the child isn’t welcome as they keep making a mess.” Then again, she does pay for everything each time. But Killer can only imagine the issue of having to keep restocking the store.
Honestly, normally Killer wouldn’t care if it weren’t for the fact that that idiot lady kept trying to steal their bitty. The audacity honestly.
Even worse was that it seems like the lady had more spoiled children cause now there are apparently three. The girl of before seemed to be the youngest. Either way it meant that Killer and Cross made sure to spend even more time with Axe. One of them was with him at all moments of the day. As soon as the store opens until it closes. They both do feel terrible about letting Nightmare deal alone with all his work but Nightmare reassured them that Axe’s wellbeing is more important than the work. Not to forget that Nightmare had no issues with moving the work to a later day to deal with, even if it displeases Dream.
Though… maybe that is exactly why Nightmare has no problem with it…
Axe clearly had it the roughest with all of this. The poor bitty was clearly a bit overwhelmed with all the attention and Killer tries to reassure him that he doesn’t need to push himself. That if Axe needs time to himself they understand and accept that. They just can’t risk letting that lady be alone with their bitty.
Killer just… He doesn’t trust those humans not to try something.
So he keeps watch.
Cross is out at the moment to do their actual groceries while Killer chills in the store. Glaring at this woman who is trying to steal their tiny teammate.
Surprisingly, even with the humans things had been rather calm.
Which is obviously when it all goes to shit.
It starts with loud barking outside and a loud cheer from the son that Killer had only seen in passing until now.
It sounds like something being thrown over and orders of “Catch it!” is when Killer starts to feel nervous but he can see the older girl eyeing the cage with Axe and like hell is Killer leaving his little buddy.
Then the door shoots open as a large dog skips inside trying to break and moments later a tiny form runs in full speed with another dog after it and the human cheering.
Killer knows right away who it is and he feels himself freeze.
Renegade doesn’t pause as he rushes straight to Killer and, much more important Axe. Killer doesn’t think as he kneels down and uses his arms to form a ramp going up to the cage. Renegade takes it and Killer feels tiny footsteps that run up and straight to the cage. Killer looks up and sees that Axe has forced the door open a tiny bit and Renegade slides right through it into the cage.
Killer straightens and takes the cage as a whole before either human can even try to touch it “Don’t you fuckers fucking dare.” Killer holds the cage close as he glares at the humans. Trying to radiate his LOVE as a very clear warning.
The boy huffs “Hey! I caught that bitty! That makes it mine, give it now!” The boy grins triumphally.
Killer glares and flips the brat the bird “Fuck off. That is Axe’s bonded and so automatically falls under our care by contract. You piss off entitled brat.” He looks down and feels fear pick up.
That is blood. Renegade is bleeding. The dogs… They bit him?
Lambert had been in the store today and looks worried “Oh no he is hurt. I will call in the healer and call dad!” and they rush to the counter and starts dialling numbers.
The human lady glares “That is a bitty that my son caught. Hand it over immediately.”
Killer glares and growls lowly “Fucking try it bitch.” There is no reason now to hold back anymore honestly. They got Renegade now and that had been the reason they had still been playing nice to begin with.
It would be best if they could get Renegade treatment right now but they can go to other stores in this universe to get him the treatment he needs. It will be a shame to say goodbye to this town to visit but Killer much prefers to have Renegade and Axe comfortable.
The lady glares and Killer doesn’t think as he pulls out his knife and aims it right at her throat.
There is a dead silence in the store.
Killer smirks “Fucking. Try. It.”
Silence until-
“Killer!?” Cross joins his side looking alarmed “What are you doing?!” He looks around the scene anxiously.
Killer keeps glaring at the humans he has his knife aimed at “This bitch was trying to kidnap Renegade after her fucking dogs hurt him. I think I am within my right to protect him.”
Cross blinks at him before looking down and gasping “Oh no Renegade. It is okay. We will get you looked after and then get you and Axe somewhere safe.” Cross then looks over his shoulder and glares at the humans.
Ramfy walks into the store and they end up being lead to the back where the healer had arrived. Renegade fought tooth and nail to not be removed from Axe’s side and Axe wasn’t much better as he kept trying to reach for Renegade. Biting the hands that went to pick Renegade up. Killer tried his best to keep Axe calm as Cross watched every single move the healer made near Renegade.
The first issue came with removing the poor little guy’s jacket and Killer couldn’t help but stare.
He really was a tiny skeleton as Cross had said. The little guy seemed to have a bit of a gradient of grey to white on his arms, grey near his claw tips and white halfway up his arms. One eye was red and the other was red and blue multicoloured. The grumpiest little face and very tiny grey freckles on that adorable little face.
Killer can admit he has a weakness for cute things, sue him.
Renegade manages to cause quite a bit of damage by scratching and biting but the healer seems unsurprised as they manage to get the bitty healed, dressed and back in the cage. Even with their hands now bleeding quite badly that they have to treat themselves.
Lambert looks nervous “I am so sorry miss Shar I-”
Shar shakes her head “It is fine. I expected as much from a wild bitty.” She washes and disinfects her own hands before healing herself “Now. He needs a lot of rest and most likely rehabilitation by how he acted. After that special care before he is able to be adopted.”
Ramfy nods “I expected as much and will get the right organizations informed.” Shar nods and leaves.
Ramfy turns to him and Killer pulls the cage closer to him. Ramfy sighs “I understand that this is less then you wanted but it is for the best if he is moved to the right facility to receive treatment… and with Axe being his bonded-”
Cross glares and moves in front of Killer and the cage “No. You are not taking either of them.” Killer feels his soul speed up just a tiny bit.
Ramfy frowns “We don’t want trouble and we are just trying to do what is best for the bitties.”
Cross nods “And while we understand this. I hope you understand that we find it very hard to trust strangers with our little bitties. We have already proven we know how to treat Axe right and we will do the same for Renegade.”
Ramfy sighs but Killer speaks up “Lets be honest here. Either we are leaving today with the two bitties and your okay. Or we are leaving with the two bitties without it. It doesn’t make a difference to us.”
Cross shoots him a look before speaking much more diplomatic than Killer himself did “Contract wise we are already the owners of both bitties and until the two were reunited Axe would sleep here for his emotional and mental health.” Cross smiles brightly “Which means that now they are reunited we will be taking both home and give them all the room and time they need to recover.” Cross straightens his spine as he speaks “We completed all the classes and checks about bitty care. We know which meds Axe needs to take for his skull and as skeletons we also will be perfect to make sure Renegade heals well from his injuries.”
Killer grins as he leans on his hand “Questions?”
Look, just because they did what they did to rebalance the multiverse doesn’t mean Killer isn’t a little shit and he knows it. Killer also loves to see Cross be a little heathen.
Ramfy frowns at them and seems to realise that they are in matter of fact right and are within their rights. Ramfy sighs but nods “Very well… I hope they both will be fine…” He looks seriously as them “I do think it is unwise to take them immediately. I think it would be better to give them time to socialise and rehabilitate first. However, as you said, all of you have completed the course on bitty care and proved safe for them to be near. And as you mentioned, contract wise you are their owners.” Which yikes. With them being sentient that is just weird to hear now.
Ramfy sighs but nods “Very well. But please, for their wellbeing, if there are issues or problems come ask for help or directions. I just want them to feel okay.”
Cross smiles and nods “Us too. We just want them to be happy and healthy and we will do everything we can to make it that way.” Cross and Ramfy shake hands after which Cross grins at Killer and gives him a nod.
Killer nods back as he picks up the cage. A glance inside shows that Axe is still holding Renegade as Renegade watches their every move. At least Killer thinks he is watching them as he can’t see that adorable little face under his cloak.
Cross and Killer walk out of the store together with the container holding their two bitties. Killer would skip if he wasn’t terrified of accidentally scaring the two inside the container. Well, scare Renegade that is. Axe is completely calm as he holds his tiny bonded, small hands rubbing his back and removing dirt from the other.
Stars Cross hadn’t been lying about their height difference. Just too adorable.
They know those humans are following them but they don’t care. Killer nods to Cross as soon as they turn a corner and Cross cuts open the fabric of the universe to open a portal. Killer hears the soft gasps from the bitties and Killer grins down “Neat trick isn’t it?” and he walks through, closely followed by Cross.
They appear in the living room of the castle.
Killer grins and raises the cage above his skull as he turns around very slowly “Tada! This is the living room! Everything the light touches is our domain, also what the light doesn’t touch! That door.” He looks towards said door “Leads to the kitchen and has the food inside, no worries as we will obviously bring you two food but just in case you get hungry or the munchies or just really want something specific. The door next to it leads to the dining room.” He continues with his turn “That door leads towards the grand staircase leading up to the other floors but aside from our rooms and Nightmare’s office we are rarely upstairs. The doors on the other side of the staircase lead to our training room and our storage.”
Killer walks over towards the set up bitty enclosure and starts connecting the cage, which they kind of stole… they will have to return and pay money for that, holding the bitties to the rest of the enclosure.
Then Killer sits cross legged on the floor and watches them.
Axe looks around the area with a frown as he holds the unmoving bundle of clothes that is Renegade in his arms.
Killer is unsure what to do when Cross joins his side and carefully opens the cage holding them and moves some food into the enclosure, some chicken with orange and rice it seems, the leftovers from yesterday’s takeout. Cross next dips under the table and oh Killer is very distracted by Cross’s back aimed towards him.
Killer just stares as he struggles with himself to not touch much less slap the backside he wants to touch so badly.
Then the tiny lights in the enclosure turn on and Cross gets out from under the table “There!” he smiles at Axe “Okay Axe, obviously you don’t need to rush but I will just explain, just in case okay? Each room has their own light switch to turn on and off the lights. There are about seven different bedrooms you two can chose from to sleep in or stay in. The water should work and be running but it may take a moment to warm up.” Cross pulls a face “We haven’t found a working miniature kitchen just yet but we are working on it.” he smiles “Any questions?”
Axe frowns as he looks down at Renegade but Renegade doesn’t move at all. Then he looks back up at them and shakes his skull.
Cross nods “Okay! We will just go tell Nightmare what happened okay? Take your time to get comfortable. You don’t have to worry about anything, Killer raised and trained his cats very well and they won’t bother you two either.” Cross shoots him a glare.
Killer, still in slight mourning over being unable to touch either of his roommates as he wants, turns to the bitties “Pretty much! The cats won’t hurt either of you and tend to remain outside anyway. Get some rest and take it easy!”
Killer remains sitting right there and Cross has to pull him with him before he is willing to move. Killer keeps looking over his shoulder at the enclosure. Trying to catch a glimpse of them moving but neither do.
Not… how Killer had wanted them to gain the two bitties but it will have to do. At least this way they know they are safe and sound and have nothing to worry about!
Now… time to tell Nightmare.
--
“Bunny?”
“I am sorry…”
“It wasn’t your fault… are you okay?”
“…”
“Bunny please…”
“… Shoulder hurts still.”
“Can I look?”
“…. Hm”
“Thank you…”
“No problem…”
“…”
“…”
“What if… they realise… I am… not enough? They like you… they know you… not me…”
“They will love you…”
“You don’t know that…”
“Maybe not… But I am still sure.”
“I guess…”
“Is your arm better like this?”
“Yeah… thanks H.”
“No problem Bunny. Goodnight and I love you”
“Love you more than anything.”
