Ghostbur's Thoughts

Entry #17

George slowly walked out of the house, smiling.

Pulling out a wither rose, he delicately played with it, and crushed it into a powder.

"Come on out, Dream." he said, blowing the powder away, and turned around.

He saw Dream standing behind him, and hugged the taller man.

"How are you, Georgie?"

"I'm great, but why are you following me again? I'm not gonna be killed or something."

"Who knows? You might."

George laughed nervously, but knew inside he could easily kill everyone and destroy the timeline if he felt like it.

He'd already gotten DreamXD as well as most of the minor gods under his manipulation, and he was practically impenetrable.

He just needed a few more weeks and everything would be set for him to be able to join.

Opening his eyes, he dismissed Dream, and walked away.

Carefully fluffing up his hair, he put on his clout goggles and smiled.

The 404 on his t-shirt glowed, and he faded away, back into the Inbetween.

Blinking his eyes a few times, he adjusted to the bright white light of the mystical world, surveying the tall pillars that cast no shadows.

Rubbing his eyes again, he pushed past the few lost travelers that were straggling inside, and purposefully took a few turns.

Right, left, left, left, right, down, and through the painting behind the wither rose.

Hopping down from the ledge, he brushed himself off, and looked up.

"Hi Purpled!

The boy turned around, blue-ish eyes lighting up.

"George! You're back! How has the procedure gone? W-will I be able to see everyone in the SMP again?"

"Don't worry Purpled, you'll get out of here soon."

"George, you're the best. Thank you so much for helping me."

The boy smiled, and hugged George.

With his heart melting, George returned his hug, ruffling Purpled's hair. Purpled was like his child, and had been caught in the Inbetween after following Karl in a timeline.

If George hadn't been able to manipulate the portals, then Purpled would've become like the others that had become lost travelers.

Unlike the other travelers and Gogy, Purpled didn't have the skill to go through realities, which only developed as an adult.

Purpled was basically stuck in the Inbetween, but he took it very well.

He would sometimes dress up as a lost traveler, and helped George watch Karl, giving George updates.

However, Purpled was slowly becoming one of the Lost, and George could see the effect the Inbetween had on Purpled.

His usually strong blue eyes were turning into a cloudy grayish indigo, and they lacked their usual spark.

George shook his head, turning back to the task.

He had to have Tommy give a canon life for Purpled to come back.

Dream still had that revival book, so Tommy would be fine.

He just wanted Purpled to be back.

Purpled had to come back.

Purpled's POV

Purpled smiled, waving to George as he left.

Taking out his contacts, he blinked a few times, trying to get used to wearing no contacts.

He turned around, and saw his reflection in a mirror. He frowned, looking at his eyes.

They had started to turn red at the edges, small veins of red that were nearly unnoticeable against the dark purple of his natural eye color.

Sighing, he rubbed his eyes.

Why were his eyes turning red all of a sudden?
