Crimson Parasite (On Hiatus)

Chapter 28: Back To One

-Back at the Rift-

Vyx was still scattered into pieces of his personalities. Pho was trying to sort the mess happening but was thrown towards a pile by Orange.

Pho: "How long until you finish reversing the ray!?"

Gray was lying down on the floor. Looking at the ray gun with the prism attached to it.

Gray: "I haven't even started yet."

Pho: "Have you tried flipping the prism?"

Gray: "I don't think that will work."

Pho: "Fine. Wait can't you just use the book?"

Gray: "Eh it'd be the boring and lazy way out."

Pho: "You can, can't you?"

Gray just shrugs at the question. Pho picks up the book and starts writing.

Pho: "And then uh... The split clones are now back together as one."

All the clones dissappear in an instant. In exchange, Vyx was back to their normal self.

Vyx: "Wow, that was anticlimactic."

Pho: "Thank me later. Now if you don't mind, I'm just gonna pass out here on the couch."

Pho lies down on the couch. Vyx remembers something which made him laugh a little.

Vyx: "Heh. Have fun trying to get up."

Pho: "Oh wait what-"

Pho tried to get up but they were glued to the couch. They remembered why.

Pho: "I hate you."

Vyx: "Hate is a strong word, I prefer dislike."

Pho: "Just get me out of here."

Vyx: "Uhh how do i do that exactly?"

Pho: "Get some water and hope it washes off the glue."

Coal climbs on top of the couch holding a bucket. A small drop of water spills on Pho, stinging them as it was really cold.

Pho: "Coal, WHAT'S IN THAT BUCKET!?"

Coal: "Ice bucket challenge!"

Without hesitation, Coal dumps the bucket of ice and water on Pho. Vyx comes over and helps Pho get off the couch.

Pho: "Where did you even get ice from?"

Vyx: "Like I said, this place has almost everything."

Vyx's visor powers off, displaying a blank empty face.

Pho: "Hey uh, you okay there?"

Vyx: "I'm fine, just needs it's batteries changed."

Pho: "Wait, batteries?"

Vyx: "I meant I gotta go charge it. Be back in a minute."

-Vyx POV-

I got out of the room, leaving Pho and Coal in there. I head towards a door and opened it, on the other side it was a bathroom.

Mirror, sink, toilet stalls, and complete with a hand dryer. I take out a pack of disposable batteries and took four of them then left it on the sink. I sigh and hold the sides of my visor for a few seconds.

...

I felt the cold wind touch my face. I look down and saw it. My visor, in my own paws. I look at the mirror and saw myself, Eyes as black as shadows. I took the four batteries and opened the sides of my visor. I take out the old batteries and threw them away, replacing them with the new ones.
