Everything that happened(working/editing)

Chapter 3 - It Hurts...

(Really sad! Description of blood!)

Michael's pov.

My body hurts.

It hurts to breathe, talk, and move. Hearing papa crying makes my heart hurt and uncle Tommy falling asleep with the dark red liquid around him makes me very scared. He told me goodnight and it was in a way where it made me cry! 'I don't understand!' Why did that ghost do that and why was uncle Tommy scared of him. The events that happened are starting to take their effect on me, I freeze in place and my breathing starts to pick up. "Michael?" I hear dad call my name but I can't move. All I can do is whimper and tremble. "Hey. Mikey, look at me okay?" Dad speaks to me in a gentle voice. I slowly look up into his eyes. 'I can feel my body trembling, I Hate it.' "Breathe with me alright? Ready In. 1,2,3 and Out. 1,2,3. Let's do this again." I try and focus on what dad is telling me to do and breathe with him. It takes a while but eventually, I calm down and hug dad tighter than I ever have. I feel so sleepy, so I whisper to dad, "Sleepy." and close my eye, tears still falling down my face.

Dad picks me up and holds me close so I can't see behind us. "Mikey, can you touch the green part of my earring, please?" He asked me in a gentle voice. I nod and start to wiggle around a bit to get one of my arms free. I eventually get one of my arms free and tap the little gem with a shaking hand. It twinkled beautifully and starts to glow, "Hey Techno, hey Phil. So Phil I really need you to fly over here quick and watch Michael for me." Dad talks out loud but his voice shakes. "...mhm" "Ya it's bad." After silence dad speaks again. "Thank you Phil and please, hurry." Dad's voice cracks at the end. The earrings glow starts fading from its gem, going bad to normal.

'Am I leaving papa, dad, and Uncle Tommy?! NO! I don't wanna leave! I want to stay and make sure uncle Tom is okay! I want to hug papa to help him feel better!' My feelings get the best of me and I start sobbing in Dad's arms. "Dad I don't want to leave papa and uncle Tommy." My voice was quivering and I still need to whisper because of the smoke from the fire I was in. I move my head from Dad's shoulder and look at him. Dad starts walking to the trapdoor and kneels. He sets me down gently and looks at me in the eyes. "Mikey, you have to go to grandpa Phil's. Papa isn't doing alright, so please. Do what I taught you to do and I will meet you there in a little bit, okay?" He looks at me with a sad look in his eyes. I look down, 'I never seen dad like this,' I just nodded faintly but he saw it. I climb down the ladder and run to hide in the hiding spot.

'Why can't I be with uncle Tom and papa?' I sit and hug my knees to my chest. Crying.

Ranboo's pov.

I watch Michael from the window and make sure he gets there safely. As soon as he disappears into the spot, I slowly walk over to Bee. He started to pick Tommy up, hugging him, and rocking them both. "Tommy, p-please wa-ke up." I kneel next to him, being quiet as possible in a broken home. Very slowly and gently, I put my arm on his shoulders to comfort him, and for my other have I grab hold of Tommy's hand. Tubbo flinched and turned his gaze to me. He gently puts Tommy down and hugs me, the sobs that stoped seconds ago have started over but worse than the last. "R-ranboo, he left m-e. H-ow am I goi-ng to fi-ight the demons t-that I have. W-we had the sa-me problems and hel-helped each oth-er through it, I can't do it alone! Not again!" Tubbo is panicking, honestly, I am too. He has never reviled this much to me, "Bee, I know I didn't go through the same things you guys did but I could help you. But first, we need to calm you down." I make my voice soft and talk to Tubbo. His blood-filled hands hold on to my shirt as if his life depends on it. 'I don't know what I'm doing right now. I just lost my friend and almost my son, and Bee is sobbing in my arms because he lost the only person that understood him most.' I push my issues to the side and focus on Tubbo, I need to help him first. Music! I think of a song and start to hum softly. I slowly stand up and take Tubbo with me. He was still hugging me like a koala, but I don't mind, as long as I make him feel better. 'He didn't deserve this, no one does. And Tommy, he shouldn't have died like this, no one should have.' I cry silently, I take us down the stairs and head towards the hiding spot. I look up to the sky to look at the stars and end up seeing Phil. I shake my head to make the gem glow so Phil can find me on the snow mixed with ash. He flows down to me, "Ranboo what the hell happened here!" He sounds panicked. Tubbo snores quietly, he fell asleep and I didn't realize it. I look down at Tubbo, "We don't know but when I find out-. I don't know what I will do." I whispered, getting angry as I mention what happened. "But Phil.... I sorry, I failed my promise..." I squeeze my eyes shut. "What are you sorry for? What do you mean?" Phil looks scared. "T-tommy's gone, he died protecting Michael. Someone wanted to kill them both! Not only that, the trap door was locked from the outside Phil, someone knew that it could be locked from the outside. No one knew that except for people close to us!" I started to cry at beginning of this conversation. I was breaking down.

Once I opened my eyes and Phil was already through the front door.
