There will be an sumory at the end, hosted by Jenus.

Virgils POV:

"We need Wrath."
"And who is HE supposed to be?", asked Logan, visibly confused.
"He is our way to win", Roman asked, dangerously comming closer.
"Roman, calm down.", Patton said.

"Anxiety! Jesus, I haven't seen you in such a long time.", he grinned mishiviously. "And this must be the people you ditched us for."
I scoffed. "You know why I left, Wrath. And don't call me Anxiety.

"Now, if we could focus! Wrath will show us the way to the Bar, so wr cam get Remus and end this nightmare."
"And what do I get for that?", Wrath asks, playing with his finger nails, which are to sharp for my liking.
"Depends.What do you want?", Roman contors, now on my side.
He laid a Finger on his cheek, pretending to think.
"I want awsers.", he stated.
"Awnsers?"
"yes, Awnsers. All that Anxiety has said was that he needed me for the way, but never said why. Why is Remus gone? Why do you not just ask Janus? I. want. Awsners."
"Absolutly not.", I said, notocing a slight dhake in my voice.
"Well, why should I help you than?", he said, his voice rising. I took a step back.
I never liked it when he got like that.
"You may ask a few questions, but  I will not awsner all. Thats my final ofer. "
"Sure, Paranoia.", he snarled. I felt my arm lift up, this close to closing my first around his neck, only for Roman to stop me.
"We, sadly, need this guy, Virgil. You can't strangle him yet."
I sighed.
"We shall go, time is running out.", Ligan said and added a small "Before Virgil strangles somebody."
I felt my anger again, but hid it well.
I am fine.
I am in control.
"Your right.", Wrath giggles, showing ni signs of fear.

Romans POV:
Virgil scares me by now. His face seems much paler, his voice has this slightly demonic backround sound and the way he flinches makes me sad. I swear, whatever it takes, I will make him happy again.
When he nearly strangeled Wrath, I nearly cried.

As we headed out the lightscape and passed the border to the dark part of Thomas' head, I felt Virgil taking my hand and squeezing it. He was afraid.
"It's gonna be alright.", I whispered.
"I don't think so."
Before I could ask him what he meant, wrath came to us.
"So, Virgil. To my questions-"
"Give him time, Wrath.", I warned
"And who are YOU supposed to be?", his voice rose and I felt Virgil take a step forward.
"He is under my protection. Rise your voice again, and i will cut your tongue."
"Aww, das Paranoia have a crush?"
"I am not Paranoia. You little dic-", Virgil  stopped when he heared his  voice slipping and did his breathing exercisis.
"Virgil? Hey, deep breathes.", I helped him calm, even when only a bit.
After a whilr he nooded to Wrath, and he started asking away.
Questions like -
"Where is Janus?"
"Why is Remus at the Bar?"
"Why are you and Paranoia to differemt people in one body?"
- were easily awoided, when Virgil nearly bit Wraths Arm off.
"The Bar!", Patton yelled in excitment. And he was right - I could see a black-brownish building from here.
"Well, than", Wrath clabbed his hands. "My job is done, I have only one last question for you Virgil and I will be on my way again."
"Go on and ask.", Virgil spat. The deeper we got in the dark mind palace, the shorter his nerves got.

"Do you think you will actually win?"

Everybody stopped in their tracks.
"Excuse me-", Logan said
"Of course, my son will win!", Patton chimed in.
"How dare you-", I  was too  close to Wrath for his liking, and he backed away.
Virgil opened his mouth.
"Your part in this story is over. Go home and say Hi from Virgil."
Wrath backed away further and teleported away.
Finally.

Anxietys POV:

"Your part in this story is over. Go home and say Hi from Virgil.", I spat and Wrath finally went away.
A hand was placed on my shoulder and I turned around quikly, Holding a knife I had hidsen in my sleeve up their chin.
"Virgil-", Roman said, backing away from the knife, hands up.
I hid the knife in my belt again.
"Sorry, Roman.", I mumbled.
I am loosing it.
I have nothing in control.
I am not Virgil anymore.
I am Anxiety.
"We need to go to the Bar now. Before this can escalate any further.", Logan said.
Is that Pity in his eyes?

The Sumory hosted by Janus:
Janus: Greetings, dear readerssss. While I remain gone in this fanfiction, I can still tell you what happened. Don't worry, if you could not read the chapter. I am a better author anyway.
So, since the last chapter we have a new Side - Orange, also known as Wrath.
Wrath is needed to find the way to Remus, so Virgil and He make a pact. Virgil needs to tell Wrath all the things that are happening, since Wrath and Paranoia once were Friends, in order to make Wrath show them the way. Wrath agrees but asks Virgil a very unsettling Question: "Do you think you will actually win?". Virgil freacked out at that, but luckily the Bar was in eyesight and he didn't need wrath anymore. So, he send him away with the words: "Your part in this story is over. Go home, and say Hi from Vrigil".
At the end of the chapter Virgil lost it and now is only Anxiety now. He doesn't think he will win and belirved that he will lose  and be a dark side again, trapped in his own head.

1013 words (finally a at least a little bit linger chapter, I think the ending will take a loooong while so I already apologize- )
