||OLD|| -FINGER PAINTINGS- (An II2 Story)

11: Wake up...

Paintbrush had finished eating their breakfast, they wondered why Fan was acting so strange. But it didn't matter much to them. What did matter was that Lightbulb wanted to meet with them today for.. Some reason? They weren't completely sure. They got up from their seat and put their plate in the sink, then they headed to Lightbulb's room.

They knocked on the door and waited for a response, "Come in Painty!" Lightbulb called out, Paintbrush opened the door and then closed it behind them. Lightbulb took out a ball from underneath her bed, "Wanna play Volleyball?" she asked them. "Thats what you made me come here for?" Paintbrush asked. She nodded. Paintbrush sighed, "Yeah, I'll play with you." Paintbrush said. Lightbulb flickered with happiness, "Alright! You go out first, I'll be out there in a moment." Lightbulb said. "Alright." Paintbrush said, then headed outside. There was already a volleyball court outside from when MePhone4 was still there. He randomly dissapeared one day without a trace. Paintbrush started to set up the court, so that there was a net. "There, done." They muttered to themself. They could hear the hotel door open and they turned around. Lightbulb had the volleyball in her hands, and she also changed into a sports uniform for some reason. "Its just us two, you know you don't have to wear that." Paintbrush said. "It helps me focus!" She said, which was a lie, she liked getting dressed up for meaningless occasions.

They each went to their own sides of the court and began to play.

They played for a few hours, they were having a lot of fun.

It was Paintbrush's turn to serve, they threw it in the air and hit it as hard as they could, all they could hear in return, instead of a compliment, was the unnerving sound of a shatter.

They could feel their heart drop to their stomach, their breathing starting to shake, they carefully opened their eyes to the sight of Lightbulb's body on the ground surrounded by pieces of glass. They could feel tears sting their eyes as they slowly walked over to her.

"Lightbulb..?" They asked. She didn't respond, she had a giant hole in her head, she had cracks all over her. "Lightbulb this isn't funny.. Wake up." Paintbrush's voice shook, they picked up the lifeless body and began to sob.

"I'm sorry.. Lightbulb please.." Paintbrush sobbed, hugging her tightly. They started picking up the shattered glass off the floor, trying to piece her back together again, but nothing worked. This was the second time someone died in their arms. This time, they didn't mean it. They wanted to call for help, but they couldn't, their voice quivered, making them unable to even make out a sentence. They slowly got up, taking Lightbulb with them as they went inside the hotel, holding her close.

They could barely even walk in the door before their knees gave out, dropping to the floor and carefully placing Lightbulb in front of them.

Fan and Test Tube were talking to eachother as they walked to the livingroom, it was a little awkward for eachother, but they would get used to how they saw eachother. They made it to the livingroom and saw a horrifying sight before them. Fan choked up, he couldn't say anything. Test Tube on the other hand was saying anything you could possibly imagine. "Lightbulb?! Paintbrush what happened??" Test Tube cried, quickly rushing to Lightbulb's side and seeing what happened.

"I didn't... I didn't mean for it to happen... Lightbulb I'm so sorry.." Paintbrush said quietly, they were still sobbing, they could barely even see anything. "Fan take Lightbulb to her room, I'm going to take Paintbrush to their room to calm down." Test Tube said, helping Paintbrush up. Fan nodded and went to get Lightbulb to her room.
