More than One

Chapter 10: Deja Vú

Boyfriend tried his best to not get so cocky when the battle finished, since he didn't want to go out of character and be fooled by the people of this world, so he looked over at Pico who smiled at him, something he always enjoyed back in his world.

"You did it!" Pico cheered, which kinda weirded the midget off, since he's used to Pico being all tough and crap, pretending he's rock hard, when in reality, he can be really sweet, but it still made him feel a bit awkward. Boyfriend stoped himself from asking things and just acted the way Pico said so that Frank wouldn't become suspicious about them.

"Y-Yeah," Boyfriend pretended to stuttered, "I did it!" Boyfriend repeated. He looked at the man that he supposedly should be calling dad, and from what Pico told him, he used him as an gosh darn ashtray! What an amazing father he is for sure!

"Does this mean we can go now?" Boyfriend asked, like the idiot he was, he DOES have the power to make any deal he strikes come true no matter what.

Frank stayed silent before smiling at him, but it wasn't a reassuring smile, it was a crocked one, one used by the demanding ones, the ones who want to hold power over others.

"Sport," he began, "your mother and I never raised an idiot," Boyfriend, Pico and Pump got nervous, already in a position to start running, "did you really think I was gonna leave empty handed?" He rhetorically growled as he moved his hand to grab Boyfriend and drag him back with him by force. Something then triggered in the cerulean haired rapper that caused him completely freak out.

"N-No! STAY AWAY FROM ME!" Boyfriend unwillingly screamed. Pico to the rescue as he used his spray can, which, by the way, was one of the toxic to inhale ones, and sprayed the man.

"Keep your disgusting hands off him!" Pico hissed and grabbed the two by the wrists and began running before speaking to them. The two post-apocalypse spreaders (is that even a thing) where dragged behind him, but they didn't mind, they wanted to leave that alley.

"Come on!" Pico boomed, "I know a place where we can hide!"

...

The three ran into an abandoned mansion, all clearly out of breath as they were all panting, who knows how long they ran for.

"Boyfriend, you are an incredible actor, you had me worried for a sec." Pump acknowledged, still breathing heavily.

"That wasn't acting, Pump, I, for some reason, actually felt like that." Boyfriend panted and sat on the floor of the mansion.

"What?"

"That was probably Baby Blue reacting." Pico guessed.

"Who?" Boyfriend questioned, tilting his head to the side.

"My boyfriend." Pico reminded.

"Oh right."

"This place gives me deja vú for some strange reason." Pump pointed out.

"An abandoned mansion on a November instead of an October, the spookiness reminds me of when we first met at the mansion, when you tried to steal my girl." Boyfriend remembered.

"We where still gullible, can you blame a kid when it comes to candy?" Pump admitted.

"Yes." Boyfriend voiced.

"Speaking of children." Pico interrupted, moving his left shoulder, signaling the pair to look over and see this world's version of Skid.

Skid's skeleton costume is a shade of lavender and his hands and head are adorned in stickers. He wears a cyan hoodie that says "Ayú" on it, with purple and blue shoes.

"Pump!" Skid exclaimed, running up to them, "I was looking for you! Your sister said that you left yesterday and haven't came back yet."

"Well, I was helping uh, Mr. Fairest's son to hide." Pump excused, obviously wanting to face palm himself.

"Hide? Why?" Skid tilted his head to the right.

"Baby blue," Pico looked at Boyfriend, "do you want me to tell him?" Boyfriend went into quick thinking mode, he wasn't sure, he just entered this dimension, he's already facing his supposed dad of this dimension who's permanently damaged this world's version of him.

"I mean, s-sure? I-I mean, if you want." Boyfriend stuttered, not knowing what to do. Pico decided to tell him, kind of sugarcoating it as well, trying to not traumatize him either, probably because so that he could expose who this man really was behind the cameras. Boyfriend would have gladly told him, but this want his world, so he just left it up to Pico.

The funky midget then felt a bit tired, it was dark, but it wasn't a tiredness of wanting to sleep, he felt like he wanted to resist this, like something bad was coming his way if he gave in.

When Pico finished explaining everything, Skid began to apologize to Boyfriend, he felt a bit guilty, he should be apologizing to Benjamin, not him. The tiredness he felt was getting stronger at right now, he just wanted to pass out. Eventually, unwillingly, he passed out.

...

When he woke up, he saw everyone gone, Pico, the speakers that the graphite artist for some strange reason carried, and the spooky kids. There was only this monstrosity, this abomination, this thing that strangely looked like Frank. The shadowy demon thing had Frank Fairest's hair and outfit, but with some exceptions, the shirt is partially unbuttoned, slightly exposing its chest, it lacks a belt, and its boots split into two sharp toes. Its arms fade into neon blue hands, and it has glowing red eyes. It has horns which resemble cigars sprouting from its head, as well as salmon-colored smoke emanating from its arms, ears, and mouth.

"WHAT IN THE WORLD?!" Boyfriend screamed, absolutely confused at what the heck he was looking at. At first he thought it was the most creepiest thing he has ever seen in his life, but then asked himself, which would he prefer to be the first thing he saw when he woke up, Lemon Demon or this, he chose this.

"Who or what are you?!" Boyfriend demanded, only to get no response back, "Can you please tell me what in gods freaking name are you?!"

The monster just stayed silent, then suddenly, it emoted pink smoke everywhere. Boyfriend coughed and waved his hand to fan the smoke away from him while scrunching his nose at the smell. He then looked at the smoky monster, shadow monster? He didn't know anymore, but it was a monster, and it did not look like it just came in like a You get sibling entering the older siblings room just to mess with them.

"What do you want?!" Boyfriend growled once more. Music then slowly began to be heard by the cerulean haired singer and rapper. It then stopped, he looked confused at the monster.

"You want to rap battle?" Boyfriend clicked. Once again, Zero response from the stranger creature that stood in front f him. Boyfriend looked around, he was still worried about the others, and they're probably worried about him... he didn't know, they whereby with him right now, so either he's in his head or something else is going on.

"If I win, will you please tell me where my friends went?" The midget asked, again no response, "Of course."
