I feel it coming out of my throat, guess I better wash my
mouth out with soap, Gotta wish I never spoke, now I gotta wash my mouth out with soap

Why did mommy never tell me that monsters do exist?

Darkness surrounded Emma, ​​​​she rarely could see anything, the only thing she could hear was her heavy breathing and her heart beating, she felt as she was in danger, that she needed to run away, so she tried, but nothing happened, she kept running on circles, she desperately to leave that place, but it was useless, there were no walls, much less a door.

The orange-haired looked around, she found a source of light not too far away from her, she immediately ran after it. It was a table, it had many different types of food, they looked delicious, though Emma had a bad feeling about this, she took a glance at the tray in the middle, which was covered, the orange-haired girl gulped, her shaking hand approached the tray, uncovering it at once-

Conny's corpse was revealed, an oddly beautiful red flower sticking out of her chest, her skin was gray and tense, her eyes were no longer bright but looked dull and fatigued- her mouth was opened slightly- It was a truly horrible sight.

Emma's breath hitched- she shook her head, backing away at once, but she tripped over nothing- A demon's hand started to move towards her, its long boney fingers holding a white flower.
The orange-haired girl tried to scream, but nothing happened, she tried to run but it was all in vain, she was paralyzed.

The demon's hand was so close to her that she could feel the tip of the flower poking her chest- And when the monster was about to kill her-

She woke up.

Emma jumped up, cold sweat dripping down her forehead- she wiped it off as she sat up, Emma glanced at the clock, It was 5 am, she still had an hour left to sleep, she glanced to her left, [Name] was sitting at the edge of her bed, a worried
look on her face-

"You had a nightmare, didn't you?" she asked, her eyes softening.
Emma hugged her, burying her face on her chest, tears streaming down her face.

"I know. I know." [Name] whispered as Emma whimpered, the [h/c] hugged her tighter.

"[Name], Conny-"

"Let's not to talk about it.

Please."

Both laid down on the bed, [Name] covered each other with the blanket, and began to play with Emma's hair

She sighed as she felt Emma's  relax- It was so rare to see Emma cry, it broke [Name's] heart, she'd do anything to see her smile, to never see her cry-

Ever again.

[Name] adored Emma with all her heart, just as she adored Norman and Ray, so she was determined to save them from the demons, she had made her mind long ago, she'd do anything to see them free-

Even if she had to sacrifice herself on the way.

♡----★♪•♡•♪☆----♡

Emma's wide eyes lingered from across the hall, she still couldn't believe what she had seen last night, the image of Conny's body kept reliving itself on her head over and over, it was making her crazy, the orange-haired girl looked terrified , she was paler than usual and her hands were trembling.

"And this goes here?"

"Yes, that's right." Isabella cooed, patting Mark's head.

Emma froze- hearing her voice made her shiver, she couldn't believe how indifferent she was with the demons given the unmistakable circumstances- she was working with them, but they probably forced her, there was no way she would want to work with them willfully.
