Reflect appeared back in the bathroom of his new room in the new house and walked quickly outside. Materializing an ax, he made a swift walk into the deepest, thickest part of the truffula grove.

He stared up at the sky with thick ribbons of sticky black tears winding down his face, mixing with the snow. Yes, he could barely see it for the many trunks and tufts blocking his view, along with the clouding of the sadness and rage. His eyes were completely dimmed, just glassy green screens over his eye sockets. He didn't float, he trudged determinedly toward the thickest trunk and raised his weapon over his shoulder and began an unearthly screeching and assaulted the tree.

The Lorax, frantic, found him by the time he was halfway through the tree, "What are you doing, beanpole!? You can't chop down these trees! I thought we had a deal!"

"SHOVE IT, LORAX!" He could stop it coming out as a sob, and with a thick crack! the tree fell, slipping to the ground with a thud into the snow. He then went on to the next tree and chopped it.

The Lorax could sense how distraught he was, but couldn't let this continue, "Beanpole, NO!" He jumped up and grabbed the ax, the handle slipping easily from his fingers.

Reflect just fell against the damaged trunk and sobbed, holding it and shaking. Confused and upset himself, the forest guardian gave the ax to a couple of adult barbaloots to look after for a moment while he sent Pipsqueak to get Image. Now for the kid, "Hey, mirror boy, why'd you do that? What good did that do you?"

"At least I c-couldn't make things w-worse. My boyfriend is DEAD, YOU IDIOT!" It didn't matter that Panda had broken up with him, it didn't matter that he still had Slyth and Scrooge. His sweet Panda bear was lying dead in his home with HIS NAME on the note.

The Lorax's frown went from disapproving to sad and he put a gentle hand on Reflect's shoulder, "I'm sorry, kid. I'm so sorry."

Slyth floated around,being a ghost and all there really wasn't anything he could do, he couldn't even pick up his wand to do any magic. Gryff wasn't even home, spending the day with his own boyfriend. Slyth, feeling bored and wanting company decided to go pester his own boyfriend. So he floated to where he thought Reflect would be, but when he got there he saw Reflect wasn't home, though image was.

"Hey Image Wheres Reflect?" Slyth asked, phasing through the ceiling. 

"Uh, I think he's with panda" Image said a little surprised, but soon returning to what ever he was doing. 

Slyth nodded, floating up again, having gotten over his fear of heights (for now that is) he went looking for his boyfriend. 

going about asking around where this Panda-ler was, he finally reached Panda's house, being a ghost and all, phased though the ceiling, peering down, when he saw two figures, cuddling. One who was his boyfriend, when he heard. 

"I LIKE YOU TOO, BABE" 

realizing the bigger male, was his boyfriend, and the one he was cuddling with must have been this "Panda-ler" he felt something in his chest clench.  

he wanted to go down there and tear them apart, Claiming Reflect was his, and HIS alone, but as he looked some more, he saw that the other was genuinely happy. possibly even happier than when he was with Slyth.
