Mithos Goes Home

Mithos flew around the mall for a while, completely oblivious to the fact that his shiny sword and silvery wings were terrifying many shoppers. Eventually, he landed, deciding that if he didn’t eat some pocky immediately, there was no way he could save the unconscious guy from the midget and the scary monster.
His snack was interrupted by a loud shout. “Hey! It’s Mithos! Hi Mithos!” Four teenagers ran over to him.
Mithos!!!” A short girl was the first to reach him. She immediately glomped him. For a moment, he was very confused by this random hug. Then he remembered seeing her in Other Mithos’s memories. She was Maelthra-chath, Other Mithos’s dragon-obsessed girlfriend. He recognized the other friends as Oregulus, Lord of Demonic Blood, and ST218.
“Hi everyone!” he said cheerfully. “Have any of you seen any angels trying to destroy the world?”
“Umm… No… Don’t think so…” His friends were now very confused.
“Oh okay… But have you seen an unconscious guy being kidnapped by a midget or a scary monster?” Mithos persisted.
“Hey! That reminds me! Where have you been? The news said you got kidnapped!” Maelthra released him from her hug to ask this.
“Yeah, and it said you got knocked unconscious too,” Lord of Demonic Blood added. Oregulus laughed.
“I didn’t get kidnapped or knocked unconscious!” Mithos said indignantly. “But there have been a lot of meanies bothering me. Kratos and Lloyd killed my sister. And then Keyblade and Bookworm wouldn’t let me have the yummy water. And Mr. Cactus poked me when all I did was give him a friendly hug!” As he relived these horrible memories, his eyes filled with tears, which he quickly wiped away.
“Umm… Your sister’s fine, Mithos,” Lord of Demonic Blood assured him.
“Did you really hug a cactus?!” Oregulus asked in disbelief.
“Has anyone else noticed that Mithos is acting a little stranger than usual?” ST218 asked. All his friends nodded. Mithos nodded too because it looked more fun than keeping his head still. Everyone stared at him.
“Maybe the kidnappers brainwashed him or something,” Lord of Demonic Blood suggested.
“He mentioned Keyblade. I’m going to call her and see if she knows what’s wrong with him,” Maelthra decided. She grabbed her cell phone and called Keyblade’s home phone number.
Keyblade was just about to leave for the mall when the phone rang. “Hello?”
“Hi Keyblade!”
“Oh hi Maelthra! What’s up?”
“Mithos is acting a little weirder than usual. Do you know what happened while he was kidnapped?”
Keyblade’s eyes widened. “Is he with you now?”
“Yeah, we ran into him at the mall.”
“Can you and Mithos meet me in front of FYE in a half-hour?” Keyblade asked.
“Yeah, sure. See you then!”
“See you!” Keyblade hung up the phone. She smiled, forgetting her depression about the Kingdom Hearts 3 game. This was a perfect opportunity to defeat Mithos. He was apparently still drunk on cactus juice. That meant he wouldn’t be able to fight as well. Kratos and the Symphonians were trapped in their own world, so they wouldn’t be able to interfere by trying to kill Mithos.
If we can just find some way to get him unpossessed without killing him… Keyblade thought.
Let’s discuss it on the way to the mall. Goldd’s voice echoed in Keyblade’s mind. Her drake wings and tail appeared in a golden haze. She flapped her wings back and forth, heading towards the mall.
Meanwhile, Maelthra came up with an idea for what to do on while waiting for Keyblade.
“Let’s play DDR!” She grabbed Mithos’s hand and pulled him toward the arcade.
Mithos’s eyes widened in horror. He let out a high-pitched scream. “But that’s where the monster ate the unconscious guy!”
His friends stared at him.
“Can we fight the angels now?” he asked, not even noticing the weird looks they were giving him.
“I can’t believe I’m saying this, Mithos, but you are definitely the weirdest person I know,” Oregulus said.
“Weirder than me?” ST218 asked in disbelief. “But I though everyone agreed I’m the geekiest person at our school!”
“Look at my sword! It’s shiny! Shiny!” Mithos cheered.
“Yeah, he’s weirder,” Oregulus and Lord of Demonic Blood said in unison. A moment later, they were running away from Maelthra, who didn’t like them insulting her boyfriend without permission. Mithos followed them all, still looking for an angel to kill with his shiny sword.
