Chapter Text
I woke up, Rolling my blanket and pushing myself off bed. But instead of not exactly feeling anything.. I felt something. It was a mix of fear and Curiousity, i notice a plate with 5 waffles, and another plate with some white rice. There was a note on the plate with waffles: " Meet me in the garden. And don't think i am killing you.. Just beacuse i will lock the door. But eat some food first, please. "
I looked at the note in fear. What scared me was that my door wasn't locked.. This whole time?
Thinks about it, did someone think about killing me? Did someone think about.. Worse murders? Did someone think about.. Did someone....
Maybe some dinosaur facts will Enlighten me up.
* I picked the waffles and took a bite, grabbing the spoon and eating the rice. Even though they're not fully finished, at least i am full.
As soon as i entered the garden...
My eyes met the sighting of bassie, in the garden, standing and looking at me hopeless. Almost like she is insecure about something... But let's her anger out on it.
"You're early. " Bassie grabbed shelly's hand, her grip becoming tighter, shelly tried to pull back.
"I want to tell you the truth about that class trial. "
Bassie let out her hand on shelly's hand, her other hand had already locked the door.
" I just wanted to get involved... You know shelly. Nobody has ever been *dependent* on me. I was just somebody that cocoa would definitely laugh at. I would just be somebody for cocoa to replace. " Bassie holded her tears, wiping her face a little with her bare, naked arms. " I was like nothing. And so.. I decided to try and get involved in the class trial with... " Bassie tried so hard to be seen mysterious, but she just seemed pathetic.
" A fake alibi, and a story. "
Bassie couldn't hold it in anymore, she started crying, but before she did she covered her eyes... And just ran off.
Was this something dinosaur facts couldn't replace...?
" Heyya!"
I felt somebody grab my back, i left out a scream immediately
" SORRY! "
I flinched, later tucking my arms on my stomach
" Oh shelly! You're too scared! "
“Now shelly, ive been searching for you and bassie, let's find her! ”
Upon hearing the words, i immediately looked at the toon behind me, it was scraps, she was energetic like usual, she had a bottle of POP in her hand, resisting the urge to take another sip.
“ you seem to be enjoying your pop like my dinosaur facts! ” scraps Chuckled as she heard me, her hand finding my hand again.
“come on shellie! " Without warning or hesitation, , her grip became tighter so i couldn't let go. I was forcefully being ran away by scraps, i was already sweating, thirsty my face went a little bit red and heated due to the sweat.
“ scraps, you could have given me a warning, ya know? ” my expression was even asking it too, i was now tired and couldn't walk, my leg trips on the hard, wood floor
"You're lucky i grabbed yu! " Scraps Bursted into laughter, flexing her little victory that at least i am not injured.
“ scraps lets find brusha! ”
I said.
...
" Why? ” scraps stopped her steps, her face turned to me, eyes locking on each other. Scraps was nervous, while i was just another asking annie.
" Uh- yeah lets do! But we will find bassie, and looey first! " Scraps quickly switched up , her hand was on my hand again, gaze locked up on me.
"Scraps, you talk to me alot! "
Scraps let out a suprised yet acknowledging gasp, her eyes widening a little, mixing with the gasp.
"Oh yeah.. "
Scraps played with her cat ears, eyes closed.
"And youre the only one i can talk to more likely! "
Scraps paused her playing upon hearing shelly's nice, never aggressive language, within a blink, her arms were tucked on me, hugging me like i needed one.
"Oh! "
"Uhm... "
An unknown voice could be heard from behind, because of Curiousity, scraps and i turned our head to the behind
What seemed like to be behind us was cosmo and sprout.
"Hey, sorry for this interruption, but we just want to walk around... Please don't get in the way! "
Cosmo said, protesting
While sprout was looking around, inspecting for any suspicions like he was some detective.
“ .. and.. “ sprout responded, he was squinting his eyes while.
“ i keep seeing you two eachother. “ sprout admitted in 2 blinks, his eyes still focused on cosmo .” like you two have something in common!” sprout said.
“uhm… “ i took my steps back, slowly running away, first place to come in mind will be the room. but as i was walking away.. chills went down the spine, my gaze forcefully locked up on what seemed like to be.. the vending machine for POP.
“ i feel weird.. “ i muttered when there was nothing to even mutter at all.
the vending machine wasnt like what it was like before. it was now rusty, out of stock. there was a POP left on the floor, and it seemed to be having a note on.
“ the 10th person to drink pop would be cursed, and they may die.” - …poppy?
after reading the note, i immediately picked it up, and hided it in my pocket. this would be a good clue, especially if something… bad happened.
well.
now that i am in my room… what will i do?
i cant just stare to nothing.. i guess some conversations could help, i couldnt even ask brusha if she had made a floor plan of this building!
i carefully walk out of my room, shutting the door shut, but just like that , i had forgot my keys. yet never noticed.
there was dandy standing alone, looking bored.
“ what youre thinking about? “ i uttered in a mocking playful voice, approaching dandy as my arms were tucked behind my back.
“ bleh… “ dandy yawned, closing his eyes. “ just bored.. “
“ want to hear a dinosaur fact? “ i snickered, requesting dandy if he could.
“ no… “
….
“....”
“.....”
dandy walked away in silence, not even a “ yes “ that he could even say.
“ im gonna take a nap.. i dont have anything interesting to do for now. “
i muttered under my breath, walking away heading to my own dorm room, jumping myself on to the hard bed sheet, pressing myself on the pillow while rolling the blanket all over on me.
for now, its over.
but ginger…connie..their deaths werent over to my mind. they kept coming back, and they will never stop.
….
i completely felt asleep in a second, and just then, i woke up 1 hour later, the weather hasnt changed to night at all. so i guess i cant skip this day for now.
without hesitation, i rolled my blanket down and jumping myself off the hard bed sheet, my feelings wasnt any particular, just like 1 day ago.
as i left my dorm room, it was now empty. the halls were empty.
“ i wish i just skipped this day.. its so boring.. “ i whispered, i guess.
however, there was something that could never leave my mind today.
it wasnt ginger.
it wasnt connie.
it was…that note. the note i saw earlier.
only 3 people drank pop as of today.. what about the others.?
who is the tenth person.?
i zoned out in my thoughts, i couldnt possibly stand this anymore..
but in a lost, eyes lost itself.
i fell and fainted on the cold, wood floor
i couldnt feel other toons grabbing and rushing me to somewhere else.
atleast..?
after 10 minutes, i woke up on a entire different room, i was surrounded by goob,soulvester, and blot.
“ ?reh htiw gnorw stahw “ ( whats wrong with her? ) blot said fragilely,not thinking about observing the condition, he just wanted to question.
“ is shelly going to be alright..? i gotta go soon.. its almost nightime. “
goob also questioned, he was feeling impatient, you could hear that he was rushing.
“ she is awake! “ soulvester felt lighted up, he was happy about the toons not being injured, or badly.
blot and goob walked away, but there was a hint of happiness and cowardness in both of their movements. soulvester looked away and he was walking away too.
but you fell asleep fast.
hours passed.
now it was 2 hour left before morning.
and you? woke up literally.
“uuuuuuh…” i lenghtened my words like i lost it,after all i just fainted,woke up, fell asleep.
i clambered to ones feet, i started stalking the hallways clumsy.
and then..
i saw a big door.
the lock was on the floor.
the door was opened.
and it smelled…awful.
i wish i never opened it…
at all..
because what i saw was…
goob.
his arms were hanged on the floor, there was a circle made with blood. and on it, there was 10 POPS. all covered in blood. they were all drank.
goob was the tenth person.
