Just A Monster (KP FIC)

2

It was extremely late now. About 2:34 am that I remember of 2 hours ago. Me and Sprinklekit slept behind the counter at this time, the door closed to block out any light, noise, and thief's that made bad habits of stealing left over food during closed hours. I couldn't stop thinking about the event that had occurred the other day. I felt distant from everybody else just so I could keep my secret a secret. Of course others questioned my behavior, especially Sprinklekit. They'd never quit bothering me about it and they always said 'You can trust me.' or 'You can tell me anything.' Sprinkle would want nothing to do with me after realizing what I had done. Nobody would want ANYTHING to do with me... I began to quietly cry to my self as I tossed over in my position. Covering my face with my paws and trying to keep my volume at a minimum. I let out a slow exhale before jumping down from the shelf I was resting on and opening the door to exit the small space behind the counter, finding my self at the array of tables that people would sit and chat on every single day. I decided that I would just take a walk to clear my head while moving past the tables and heading towards the exit door before it opened it self, revealing Feizao with bleeding wounds all over their body.

"Jesus! Are you alright?!" I exclaimed loudly. They grunted and held their paw over a scratch on their waist. 

"Yeah I'm fine! I just came here to find a medkit." They said. I went dead silent as I stared at their bleeding wounds, something was stopping me from speaking up and saying so. Then it hit me. No. NO! I was reminded of my condolences with the human and that STUPID scrap of meat I took from their own hands. I continued to stare at Feizao as the noise around me deafened and I became submerged into my own intrusive thoughts.

"EAT!"
"FEAST!"
"HUNGRY!"

It was all I could hear. I. Was. STARVING. I needed to eat. I needed to look out for my self. I needed FOOD! And just as fast as Feizao had appeared I leapt onto them and pushed them to the ground with an amusing thud, I watched as the soap squirrel began to struggle under me. Straining their wounds and opening them even further as I watched the blood seep out of them.

"MOCHI GET OFF! YOUR HURTING ME!" They shouted. I put a paw on their mouth and held it their firmly. My tongue felt dry and I couldn't muster a single word other then..

"I'll make this quick.." I swiftly launched my head down towards their neck and locked it into my jaws, sinking my teeth into their flesh as I felt the warm blood slowly creep out of it. They let out a muffled and yet heart sinking scream as they kicked and cried even more. The feeling of their very flesh on my teeth was satisfying, but I didn't want to do that to Feizao. I ripped a thick piece of their meat off of their neck and watch as they paused for a second and fell limp, a pool of blood seeping from their now exposed flesh. The life in their eyes had completely vanished. I felt satisfied at the look of their body and yet I could still hear them... I could still hear their begging and chanting to be fed. I look down at the lifeless body with a bit of self hatred for what I had done. But I COULDN'T be satisfied. Not without a meal.

I ran back behind the counter in absolute panic. My fur was absolutely drenched in blood as my tears came down red. I was hyperventilating and sobbing loudly as I made it back in the safety of my home. My chest burned and I could barely tell anything around me as it just became a huge blur, and the same thoughts that drove me to the point of eating my friend scolded me.

"How could you?"
"You betrayed them."
"It's all your fault."

It only repeated it's words, trying to ground me, trying to remind me of what I had done. I quickly lifted my self off of the floor and went towards the sink, turning it on and letting the cold water clean the blood off of me as I splashed it onto my face and my chest.

"How could you?"
"You betrayed them."
"It's all your fault."

I fell to the ground and began hanging my head down onto my knees as I held them up, using my arms as support as I attempted to compose my self by trying to calm my heavy breaths. The voices only got louder. It was trying to torcher me.

"STOP IT!" I scream as I hold my paws to me ears. I had my self pushed against the door in a weak attempt to try and hide my self from their judgement.

"YOUR HURTING ME!" They mocked Feizao. 

"GO AWAY!" I scream again, this time slamming my paw onto the door. Causing a loud bang to echo across the cafeteria, And just like that. They had vanished. As if they were intimidated by the amount of noise I had created against theirs they disappeared. I couldn't help but manage a slight smile as I rested my back onto the door and relaxed my body, gaining control of my sound level and the speed of my breathing as I let out a relieved sigh. That relief was shortly relived as I felt someone pull me into a hug, that someone being Sprinklekit. I realized the amount of noise I had made just to make those voices leave me alone. I wouldn't be surprised if I had woke up everyone in the facility, specifically this side.

"I'm sorry-"

"Save it." They interrupted as they held me tighter. I thought to just stay silent as I didn't really want to argue with them right now, it was the last thing I needed after I had just managed to calm my self down. After a few more seconds of the two of us sitting in that hug I wrapped my arms around them tightly as I buried my muzzle in their fur. They didn't have much of a reaction other then petting the back of my head with their paw and letting out a sigh as I worried for the worst. Did they see me do what I did to Feizao? Or were they just startled by the noise I had made? Either way, I'm still in a pretty tight situation. Eventually they pulled away from me and sat there, they looked tired and at the same time disappointed. 

"Are you mad at me..?" I whimper. They looked up at me with this frown plastered on their face.

"I mean yeah, you woke me up at like 3:00 am in the morning with all your screaming." They rubbed their eyes and yawned, looking off into the distance.

"Why were you screaming anyway? Did you burn the cafe again?" They asked. I prepared to tell them but they'd probably worry.. I didn't want anyone to worry about me, especially because they should be worrying about Feizao when they all wake up.

"Almost." Sprinklekit only rolled their eyes.

"Jeez well don't do it again. I'm trying to sleep." They scoffed before laying down on the ground and almost instantly falling asleep, well that wasn't so bad. I sighed and tried to forget about the events that had happened just before but I couldn't even think of something different, it's stuck with me. Before I had started crying again I lifted Sprinkle up bridal style and let their head rest on my chest as they snored lightly. A large smile suddenly painting my face as I leaned against the wall again and began brushing their fur with my own paw. I decided to lean my head onto the wall and close my eyes, eventually falling into a deep sleep of my own.
