You opened the door, walking forward into the blinding white that it had supposedly led to. Another night in Black Space.
That white soon faded into black, revealing yet another room. BASIL was standing there, back turned to you, waiting for something to happen. You scoffed silently, and kept walking forward. Towards him.

BASIL, upon noticing your footsteps, turned around, smiling at you.
".. Ah! OMORI.. T-there you are, hahah.."
God, this isn't going to go well. Don't you think?
"I-I've been waiting for you for so long, OMORI! I kept t-thinking that you'd never show up, b-but here you are!"
He seemed to beam with happiness. Just another Black Space BASIL. You shouldn't waste your time trying to save him.
"This place is.. U-um.. K-kinda creepy.. But.. Now that y-you're here, we can finally go home!"
Oh, how you wanted this to all end. Yet, all dreams come with nightmares.
BASIL awaited some sort of response from you, fiddling with his fingers lightly. His flower crown seemed a bit tattered, but you paid no mind to it.
You eventually nodded, knowing that his request was completely empty. Without meaning. You couldn't fulfill it, even if you wanted to.
"L-lead the way, OMORI!"
He grabbed your hand, letting you take the lead. You sighed gently as you started to walk away from where he stayed, your free hand firmly gripping your knife.
".. H-how have the others been doing?"
You didn't reply. You simply couldn't reply.
You kept walking, noting the way the trees' leaves shuddered. There was no sign of wind, yet... Eh.
"How are my flowers doing? H-have you been watering them? Haha..."
You felt something watching you. You tried to ignore them.
".. U-uh- OMORI, wait, there's-"
You stopped walking and looked back at BASIL. A RED HAND was holding his arm tightly, and BASIL had let go of your hand to try and free his arm from it's grasp. He failed to do so.
Another RED HAND appeared, grasping at his other arm. He let out a small squeak as his arms were held apart.
You know what to do. No BASIL here is ever perfect. You can't keep trying to save them.
"O-OMORI- C-could you- Nn-!!"
You held the knife up, your gaze flickering between it and BASIL's chest.
"W-wait- SUNNY-! GAH-.."
The sickening crackle of your knife piercing his skin and breaking through his ribcage echoed through your head as you watched blood slowly seep out from the fresh gash on BASIL's chest. Satisfying. You harshly drag your knife down through his stomach, gritting your teeth at how his blood drenched his clothes, eventually seeping down onto the ground below him. The RED HANDS held him in place.
"S.. SUNNY..."
One last breath slipped from his quivering lips, before his body slowly fell limp in the RED HANDS' hold. You took your knife out of him, trying to ignore the thought of his internal-
No, that'll just make everything worse once you wake up.
You stepped away from his body, and let the RED HANDS let him go. They then disappeared. His lifeless body fell to the ground, blood pooling around him. You could see a hint of his- No.
You looked away, walking off. Hell, you wanted to get far, far away from all of this. But that wouldn't happen. That couldn't happen.
You searched for the RED HANDS. You wanted to go back to Black Space, hell- Maybe even get back to White Space. You eventually spotted one of them in the distance, and it scurried towards you once it noticed you.
You'll have to face the TRUTH one day. Even if means risking your life for that freedom you've longed for.
