Split Personality

The Sound of A Sparking Match

oof emotion time. 

__________________________

Pinks POV: 

 The taller one makes eye contact with me and we just stare at each other. He pulls the girl behind him and puts on a threatening face. I shrink down. I don't know what else to do.

Want me to take over? Red asks. 'No...I need to handle this one...'

"I come peacefully and without bearing arms." I say quietly and calmly to the tall one. "Dad, What is he doing on your property?" He asks, not taking his eyes off of me.

He had a Russian accent. Strange. Was there a state from Russia? I don't remember reading about one. Then again, I was reading old books, even for the time.

"Alaska, He is telling the truth. Stand down. It's ok." America says. Alaska...that sounds so familiar.

"What do you mean it's ok?! We have the worst thing to ever walk the earth in our living room!" He yells. "Listen! I know you don't want me here. I know none of you want me alive. But...this was not my decision." I say. After I do I just sit there and hug my arms.

"You know what America, I think I'll take my chances in the woods. It's not as if my absence would make anyone sad." I say as I stand up and start to walk towards the door.

What are you doing?! 'why do you care?' Are you ok? 'why wouldn't I be?' You heard America. It's certain doom out there!

 a strong spark of anger came from deep within me. it bubbled up and then it popped with the sound of a sparking match. 

 "oh so now that's a problem!? I don't remember you ever being concerned about our health! I don't remember you ever caring if we lived or not! But now you're all up and antsy about it! Why are you Red?! Why do you care all of this sudden?! What do you get out of all of this you selfish little prick!" I yell.

Umm Pink you should probably be quiet- "no Red! I'm done with being your little doormat! Being your stupid human shield! Every time something bad happens you sacrifice me and run away and hide like the coward you are! I am done! You want me? Pick up your mess first." I say

A hand is placed on my shoulder. I jump and turn around to see America looking concerned. "What?" I ask. "You do know you said all of that out loud right?" He asked softly. I recoil a bit. I start to breath a bit quicker.

I start to walk backwards to the door. I can't break down. Not now. I just yelled at Red! I yelled in front of people! I don't yell! I don't get upset! I'm supposed to be the good part of us. I can't get mad!

"Hay." I look over to see Oregon. "Wanna go on a walk? I know a good spot." She says with a blank face. I look at America. He thinks for a moment then nods at her. She then looks back at me. I nod too.

"We can get going right now." She says grabbing my wrist and pulling me out the door.

America's POV:

There was a click and Alaska along with Hawaii came in. Once they made eye contact with N I knew everything was going to go down. N shrunk down. Alaska started saying things. But I was not expecting what was going to happen next.

He said so many concerning things. He looked so hurt and damaged. But as much as I hate to see it happen, it needed to. It's one painful step, but it's an important one. Red needs to learn how to stop and Pink needs to learn how to stand up for himself. They both get one step closer with this. They just need to heal correctly.

Florida's POV:

Wow dude. Alaska is being really uncool. Just give the man a chance. Why you yellin at him? He's clearly not gunna fight you. I wanna tell Alaska to shut up but even the mighty Florida has fears.

But everything was going A ok until he started yelling at nobody. Like, what he doin? Why he be yelling at a color? He sounds mad though. And based on what he's yellin about I can understand why. I'll be helpin him with that mother fucker if he ever tried to do something to my new scar bud.

Texas's POV:

I have a lasso. I can use it if I need to. What the hell is going on?

Alaska's POV:

Me and Hawaii were just going to check up on dad and see how his week was. He didn't show up the day before the meeting like he usually does so I thought I would ask why.

We walk in and the first thing I see is a demon sitting on our couch.

"I come peacefully and without bearing arms." it said quietly. "Dad, What is he doing on your property?" I ask, not taking my eyes off of him.

"Alaska, it's ok. He is telling the truth. Stand down. It's ok." Dad says.

"What do you mean it's ok?! We have the worst thing to ever walk the earth in our living room!" I yell. "Listen! I know you don't want me here. I know none of you want me alive. But...this was not my decision." The monster says. After that he shuts up again.

"You know what America, I think I'll take my chances in the woods. It's not as if my absence would make anyone sad." He says as he stands up and starts to walk to the front door.

...he froze

"oh so now that's a problem!? I don't remember you ever being concerned about our health! I don't remember you ever caring if we lived or not! But now you're all up and antsy about it! Why are you Red?! Why do you care all of this sudden?! What do you get out of all of this you selfish little prick!" He yells out of nowhere.

"no Red! I'm done with being your little doormat! Being your stupid human shield! Every time something bad happens you sacrifice me and run away and hide like the coward you are! I am done! You want me? Pick up your mess first." He yells.

I'm so confused. Dad seems to know what's going on though. He puts his hand on his shoulder and he jumps a bit but he turns around and acts like he didn't just have a one sided argument with himself.

"You do know you said all of that out loud right?" Dad asked him. He seems startled.

He starts to walk backwards looking very panicked.

"Hay." I look over to see Oregon. "Wanna go on a walk? I know a good spot." She says to him. He looked at America for approval. He approves.

"We can get going right now." She says grabbing his wrist and pulling him out the door.

The door closes and that's it they're gone. I look at my dad. "Ok we all deserve an explanation. Oregon's going to go murder him. What took you so long to get that one done?" I say. "Oregon's not going to murder the man. She's going to calm the guy down." Florida Says.

"Ok I do owe all of you an explanation as to what's going on. I call a family meeting." Dad says. He pulled out his phone and started sending a message. I guess it was for a family chat because I got a massage from dad. So did the rest of the family.
