He shudders. I smile. He runs away. I giggle again.
"I don't understand... I don't know why I've accepted weakness for so long?"
I sigh. He sighs. I hear daddy. I turn. He walks into Kalib's room. I sigh. He starts whipping the idiot. I giggle.
"Fuck!"
I look around.
"Leave me alone."
I giggle again. Daddy leaves.
"I'm done being weak."

That night.

Time for supper! I go eat. I hear a loud shout. Who was that? And where is he? What happened?
"Let's go check on him."
I nod. We go check on him. I see him laying on the ground. His hair now white as snow and he has one red eye and one green eye. What happened? He is twitching wildly. What's going on?
He turns and smiles.
"I could say I'll take you
I could say I'll make you
But underneath all I plan to do, to do is break you
You could be my breakthrough
Watching demons wait 'til
I leave you, and they can initi-niti-nitiate you"
He twitches hard. Why is he twitching like that?
"No one understands me
Too scared to command me," he sings looking down. 
"Walking through an empty underworld of demons dancing," he skips around us.
What is going on? He smiles bigger.
"I'll drag you into my home
Lose you deep in my thoughts
Fall inside the rabbit hole again
I'll drag you into my home
Lose you deep in my thoughts
Fall inside the rabbit hole again," he claps.
What is he doing?
"Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (fall inside the)
Rabbit hole again
Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)
Rabbit hole a- (fall inside the)," I'm dragged into a hole.
"Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)" I fall down over and over.
"Rabbit hole ag-
Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)
Rabbit hole again,"I finally land.
I look around.
"I won't wait to play you
I will not forsake you
I'll wait as long, as long as it takes you
You will say you need me
Say you don't believe me
You can try but you will never, never, never leave me," he smiles grabbing my arm.
What is he doing? He pushes me back.
"No one understands me
Too scared to command me," he sings looking down. 
"Walking through an empty underworld of demons dancing," he skips around us.
"No one understands me
Too scared to command me," he sings looking down. 
"Walking through an empty underworld of demons dancing," he skips around us.
I look away
"I'm too late to walk it alone
Too late to say I don't know
Too late to turn back time a- (fall inside the)
I'll drag you into my home
Lose you deep in my thoughts
Fall inside the rabbit hole again (fall inside the)
I'll drag you into my home
Lose you deep in my thoughts
Fall inside the rabbit hole again."
I sigh.
"Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (fall inside the)
Rabbit hole again
Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)
Rabbit hole a- (fall inside the)
Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)
Rabbit hole ag-
Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)
Rabbit hole again"
I look around.
"I will always wait for you
I'll always be waiting
I will always follow you
'Cause you cannot escape me
I will always wait for you
I'll always be waiting
I will always follow you
'Cause you cannot escape me."
I sigh.
"I'll drag you into my home
Lose you deep in my thoughts
Fall inside the rabbit hole again
I'll drag you into my home
Lose you deep in my thoughts
Fall inside the rabbit hole again
Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)
Rabbit hole again
Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)
Rabbit hole again (fall inside the)
Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)
Rabbit hole ag-
Rabbit hole, rabbit hole (inside the)
Rabbit hole again"
He grabs onto daddy. Daddy just freezes. What is he doing? He lets go. His hair turns back dirty blonde. His eyes go wide. I look around. He sobs. I sigh.
Mommy shout, "guards!"
"No!"
He disappears.

Flashback ends.

The figure's gone! Who was that? I don't know... but I'm kinda worried he's coming back for us now...

Felix's POV

It's storming! I don't want them to go out into that! I stop them.
"What's wrong?" Paradise asks.
"It's storming!"
"Okay... we'll stay."
I nod. Suddenly we hear a groan. I look around. It's from outside. I look outside. I see a boy. I go help him. He's unconscious... I bring him in.
"Who is he?"
"I have no idea mate."
"Oh noes!" Cherry and Hollyhock cry adorably.
"What?"
"He's hurt!"
I nod.
"Healing rain!"
"No not in the house!" Willow shouts running in from the kitchen but he was too late. We all get soaked by water and watch as all of our wounds fade away. My God.
"...sorry."
"It's ok."
Willow chuckles softly then says, "well now we all need to go get dried off!"
I nod. We walk off to get dry. I finish. I walk back into the main room. That poor guy. I sigh. He starts to wake up. I sit down.
"Where am I?"
"My house."
"Who said that?"
"Me."
"Who is me?"
"My name is Felix. I'm over here."
He tiredly turns. I wave. He gives a tired wave back. I sigh. He looks up. I look back.
"My—my name... it's—" he passes out.
I sigh. Perry walks in. I look over.
"Hi."
"Hey."
He plops down. I sigh. The boy wakes back up. I look at him. Perry gets up and sits down in front of him.
"Hi my name is Perry, what's your name?"
"K—Kalib."
I nod.
"Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you."
"Y—y—you too."
I smile. He smiles cutely. I smile back. He turns and sees Orvis. He looks down. I sigh. He starts to softly cry.
"What's wrong?"
"...I know how that works I don't know how to undo it."
I nod.
"... I feel like a monster..."
"Why?"
"... the reason I know... I did that to my dad... my family always abused me... so... I got fed up with being called a monster and a demon."
I nod. He starts crying harder. I look down.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay."
The others walk in. Yucca sees him crying and sits down.
"Hi, my name is Yucca and you are?"
"Kalib."
"Nice to meet you, I'm sure you've already met Felix and one of my brothers, Perry."
Kalib nods.
"The one in yellow is Narcissus but some call him Narky, the one in grey is Ludovicina, purple is Acanthus, red is Lycaris, orange is Paradise, cyan is Brunnera, green is Aloe, black is Hollyhock, brown is Willow, and pink is Cherrico but he prefers Cherry."
I nod.
"Can you introduce yourselves? I don't know you as well as Narcissus does."
They introduce themselves.
"Nice to meet you."
Narcissus looks over cutely. I sigh. He yawns and stretches. Kalib looks down. I look over. He looks up. Then his stomach growls. I get him something to eat.
"Thank you."
"No problem."
I smile back. He falls asleep. I sigh. Yucca sighs softly. I sigh again. He groans. I look over. He looks around.
"I'm sorry."
"For?"
"That..."
I nod. He sighs. I sigh. He lays down. I smile.
"It's eleven o'clock let's go to bed."
I nod. We go to bed.
