Roblox Piggy: F.E.A.R

12.3 - Darkest Of My Heart

Lucinda's POV:
For a moment, I believed that I was dead and thought nothing of it.

I was proven wrong shortly after when I found myself laying on the ground of the plant. However, many things were different. The lights were red instead of blue. The four hallway entrances were replaced with black ink-like borders, and said hallways were replaced with familiar places, two of which I so desperately wanted to forget; the forest cave, the school cafeteria, the metro's lounge, and the carnival's high striker. I was sitting infront of the cave section while Mr.P and the scientist were on the metro's end.

"Where am I...?" I thought to myself as I stood up and looked around. Georgie was no where to be found, much to my dismay. Mr.P slowly stood up as the scientist charged towards me. I quickly jumped out of the way before running away. From the corner of my eye, I noticed Mr.P, and I was quick to tell that he seemed angrier than ever. He quickly fired more bullets at me before I rolled onto the ground to avoid getting hit by them and by the scientist's tube of acid.

I got up and kicked the scientist in the stomach before backing away from him and turning on my heel. I quickly ran away from the scientist, my heart pounding faster than ever before. Of all the previous times I had done this, none of them compared to what could potentially be my last time doing the same thing. Was this all in my head, or was this real? Stuck inside of my thoughts, I noticed a glowing black and white ball and quickly jumped out of the way, and what came out of it made me gasp.

"Doggy...?"

"No...my mind is playing tricks on me, don't fall for them. He's infected, and my lost eye is proof of that."

I shook my head vigorously as I fought to keep standing. Although I was hesitant, I managed to run away from Doggy's illusion. I ran into the carnival section of the distorted plant and was about to sit down on one of the benches when I noticed a glowing gold coin from the corner of my eye. I turned to it before slowly creeping towards it and picking it up. I sighed and shook my head as I realized what I had to do. I bit my lip before turning around.

Without giving it a second thought, I ran towards the scientist as fast as I could.

As expected, he tried to attack me, but I was younger, meaning that I was faster. I had to disarm him, but it wasn't going to be easy since his weapon was a tube of burning hot acid. It would surely leave another permanent mark on my already damaged skin. I bit my lip before making my decision. The scientist tried to hit me with his tube once more, and I lifted my arm up to block the attack. I had to force myself to not close my eye as the burning hot acid hit my arm.

I felt it burn and scar my skin and Rose's trench. I held back a cry of pain as I swung my arm outwards, knocking the tube of acid out of the badger's hand. My unharmed hand immediately flew and covered my burnt arm as I bit my lip in pain. Fortunately, the acid didn't burn through the fabric of my late sister's trench, but it most definitely burned my skin. I let out a shaky sigh as I stared at the red, nearly purple, mark on my arm.

"Mimi is going to freak," I said to myself as I looked back up at the badger. He tried to punch me, and I moved my head to the side before grabbing his arm. I turned around before throwing the badger over my shoulder and onto the ground below us. The roar that escaped him was my cue to leave, so I ran away from him and towards the metro section. Avoiding Mr.P, I slid through the vent on the left of the doorway.

The room I was in seemed to be a carbon copy of the metro's lobby, just smaller. It had the chairs, the benches, the closed entry door, and the vending machine. Said machine had a high striker hammer inside while said bench had an already lit torch. I put the coin into the machine while questioning how the fire from the torch didn't burn the wooden bench it was on. I went over to the torch before picking it up and turning around, and I found myself face to face with the mastermind himself once more.
