The Sundrop & The Moondrop

- Chapter 22, The First Ghost-

- Sundrop's perspective -

It's been months since Delilah died, she was so nice too. Recently though more have died, mysteriously too. They visit or work in the daycare.. then, they mysteriously disappear and someone finds them dead. Moondrop did this, I know this as a fact.. but, knowing that I can't tell anyone?.. it hurts. It hurts to know that your friend-.. well.. what used to be your friend is a killer. A murderer, that's what he is.. but I'm not blaming him. I'm past that now, I know now not to blame him as it could make the situation worse.. it's bad enough already.

I was laying in my room looking at the ceiling. It's plain.. boring..  I thought to myself. The ceiling was a very dull grey colour and it was cracked in several places due to Moondrop throwing stuff around. Moondrop's written notes to me a few times, not too often though as I seem to annoy him by existing. I had stayed there for a few hours now, doing nothing but staring at the ceiling.. there's really not much else I can do in here anyways. I could run around the daycare and climb the play structures but even that gets boring. "..It used to be more fun when you were around.." I muttered, Moondrop must've heard this because he started speaking "What did you say?.." I responded to him, still staring at the ceiling "Nothing.. I don't think you'd want to hear it anyways.."

"Hear what?.. is it important?" Moondrop said and he sounded a bit impatient "..I just said that, well-.. it used to be more fun when you were around.. y'know, when we weren't combined?.." I replied, Moondrop didn't reply after this so I assume he grew tired of listening and dozed off into his own little thought world. Then, I heard a voice.. it wasn't his voice because it didn't sound as dark or as creepy as his. "..Can you hear.. me?.." the voice said, I immediately started to get up and look outside the curtain. It sounded as if it came from outside Don't be silly Sunny, it's probably nothing..  I thought to myself silently. I went to go sit down but then I heard the voice again "I-I can't sleep.. can you help me?.." the voice muttered, this time it was right beside me. I turned left and what I saw... I saw a ghost, a spirit.. some kind of supernatural entity.

The owner of the voice was small, a child probably not even past the age of 12. The child had long hair but I couldn't identify what colour it was because they were transparent. I stumbled back a little and began to speak to it "Wh-who are y-you?.." The small child replied as soon as I stopped speaking "I-.. I'm tired.." The child was also wearing a dress, it looked like sleep-wear and they had a sleeping mask on their head. They were carrying a small plushie, it was a plushie of Moondrop though it too was transparent and unable to be effected by physical interactions. I noticed that they had a wound in the area where their stomach would be, it seemed to be frozen in time. "I-I'm Luna.." the child spoke, their voice seemed to echo throughout the room in a creepy kind of way. I didn't know what this spirit child was but whoever it was, I could remember that they were a guest in the pizzaplex. They must've died here..  I moved closer a tiny bit to the child and began inspecting them.

"Y-you're dead.. aren't you?" I said, the child merely nodded and looked at me..
