Angry (An Inanimate Insanity FanFiction)

4

    I don't normally get nervous when someone knocks at my door, but my nerves have spiked since last night, so honestly you wouldn't be surprised that I yelped when I heard it.

"Paintbrush? Was that you? Everything okay?" Oh. It was just Test Tube. Thank god. Lightbulb got up and opened the door.

"They're fine, just nerves, we're both pretty concerned." Lightbulb responded, letting Test Tube in. "Where's Fan?"

"He's with BowBot in the lab. Said he wants to keep a very close eye on her with people going missing. Speaking of, that's what I'm here for." Test Tube's smile turned into a straight face. Oh no, does she know?! She can't know. There is no way, right?

"W-what are you talking about?" I asked sheepishly, trying to sound tough but obviously didn't work. Lightbulb gave me a glare, that turned into a smile almost right after.

"Fan and I have been discussing for the past hour, and we want to keep you guys safe. You guys are welcome to come stay in the lab until Pickle and Knife are found as it is very secure." Test Tube suggested. I looked over at Lightbulb and she was practically glowing.

"That sounds like an awesome idea! Thanks Testy!" Lightbulb said, hugging her.

"Since Paintbrush is sick, I have lots of different easing medicines to help them relax. Just, don't touch anything or else quarantining might have to be a possibility." She shot a glance at me and I nodded.

"We'll meet you at the Dr. Fizz machine in 30!" Lightbulb giggled, dancing around the room. I wonder why she was so happy. Test Tube waved goodbye and left the room.

Lightbulb giggled and skipped around the room. I was quite confused.

"Painty, do you see the opportunities?! Testy has amazing stuff we can check out. Not only that, but we aren't even close to being on the suspect list as of now!" She cheered. My eyes widened.

"Lightbulb! Don't scream that! Someone will hear." I looked at the door, silently praying no one would come in. She covered her mouth quickly before smiling again.

"My bad. Well, we don't have any time to waste. Let's go."

I slowly follow her as she skips out. My mind is rushing. It's like this is all a game to her. Well..anything to keep Lightbulb happy.

We fall down through the tunnel that leads to Test Tubes lab to be greeted by herself and Fan.

"Hey guys!! I'm so glad you're both safe!" Fan exclaimed. I smile at him and Lightbulb rushes to hug him. Test Tube proceeds to lead us to the room we will be staying in until Pickle and Knife are found. Which they won't be. We'll be here for a long time.

"I hope this is comfortable enough. This is a pretty stressful time for us all." Test Tube released a long sigh and relaxed against the door, Fan wrapping his arm around her waist.

"Yeah, definitely. I hope those two are found!" Lightbulb says, still just as cheery as always. Test Tube gives a light smile.

"Lightbulb, you always look for the best in things and I love that about you." I really wish I could tell them the truth right now. I lay in the bed of the room and turn away from the others.

"Painty has been taking this pretty hard. You know how they get." Lightbulb explains. Test Tube nods.

"I'll leave you two to it then" and with that the two of them are out of the room, the door shut behind. Lightbulb giggles.

"Once they go to sleep, we can search around for tools to help with our next attack!" She exclaims. I sigh.

"Lightbulb, I'm not sure I want to hurt anyone else." She groans.

"You are such a party pooper Painty! Don't you want to make me happy? Don't you love me??" She cries out. No no no I don't want her to be upset!

"Lightbulb, I'm sorry I do love you I swear! If it will make you happy then I will help you..." Help her with her sick fantasies... but it's Lightbulb. I can't say no to her.

Now we just have to wait.
