The next day, William was in the middle of making an animatronic he wanted to call "Ennard", he had only made an endoskeleton with all the features an animatronic could possibly had when his cellphone rung.
"DAD!!!!" a voice that sounded somewhat like a sobbing noise of Terrence came from the phone.
"What happened, Terrence?"
"E-Elizabeth-"
Frick, thought William, don't tell me-
"I'll be there in a second-" William set down his tools and drove to Circus Baby's Pizza World. There he found Terrence terrified and crying.
"W-What's the matter...?" William said, trying his best not to have a mental breakdown with two of his children dead by himself.
Terrence shivered before he lifted his hand slowly to point at the blood around C. B. "I-I think E-Eli is d-dead...!" He forces out the truth.
William was angry, disappointed, and sad at the moment, he looked at C. B. and sighed, he told Terrence, "Let's just go home, Terrence, go home..."
On the way home, William said to Terrence, "Why don't we just tell your mother that Elizabeth is missing, I don't want you to get into that big of a trouble, and don't worry I'll be the one saying it was my responsibility." he smiled at Terrence. Terrence, weakly smiled back.
When they arrived home, of course, Clara would ask, "Where's Eli?"
"I don't know," William said firmly, "I was building an animatronic and wasn't paying attention to what Eli was doing, now she's missing."
Terrence was shocked by how his father didn't stammer a single word he said to make it seem as if it were true, he didn't seem nervous at all.
Clara glanced at Terrence, she wanted to see if he had an anxiously-nervous face, which he would have when he is guilty. Terrence gulped, he couldn't hold it.
It looked like Clara seemed to notice because she said, "cut the act, William, I know Terrence is responsible, UGH THAT MISTAKE DOES EVERYTHING WRONG!!!!"
"CLARA SCHMIDT!!! WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO THEN HUH?? KICK TERRENCE OUT OF THE HOUSE??" William yelled back.
"OH YES, IT'D BE BETTER IF HE JUST KILLED HIMSELF!!! OR IF HE DOESN'T, WE COULD KILL HIM!!!!"
"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU???? HE IS YOUR SON!!! YOU CAN'T TREAT HIM LIKE THAT!!!"
"WELL THEN, YOU THINK YOU'RE ANY DIFFERENT??"
"I--" William had no more words to say, that was all true, "well- you see, at least I'm trying to CHANGE!!"
"Then why do you still beat them with a stick?! HUH HUH??? WHAT your not grateful of having a BETTER dad than HIM???"
William was triggered, "Clara, zip it."
