The Voices; Reign of Chaos (ON HIATUS)

Insanity or something else?

Sabre's POV

The Player sat down on one of the chairs and spaced out.

What, and better yet, who did he hear? It simply couldn't be his imagination because there were multiple voices, neither of them sounding like his or his yellow companion's.

Maybe it's just a side-effect from all the stress he's been through lately? Or maybe—

He got ripped from his train of thoughts when he heard another voice "Did- Did he just hear us?" He wipped his head around frantically gaining the attention of both steves who were cooking in the kitchen.

"Sabs? You alright?" Yellow steve asked only gaining a confused look from the player before a quick nod, this somehow, was enough to reassure both steves.

What if it was just the stress? He couldn't be insane or anything! Nothing could cause that!(this is set after destroying rainbow void).

If something is causing this then void is ruled out as a suspect because he's dead, not sure if the darkness could do this and even if they could he destroyed them all!..

Right?..

Now he was starting to panic. 'What if I didn't get rid of the darkness but just harmed them slightly? No, you have to leave that stuff behind you now.'

He thought before standing up and saying out loud "Hey, uh, I'll be going outside for a while. Call me back when you guys are finished." This causing the steves to be concerned but not too worried "Sure!" The Yellow steve replied.

He opened the door and closed it and looked around trying to calm himself down, He stood out there for a while before hearing a faint voice say "I just woke up. . Where are we and what are we doing now- Oh~ look at those lilies-" the voice suddenly sounding more close "Wait he heard us?" It said sounding like it was replying to someone.

This was enough to send Sabre in a small panic mode and his body tensed up. That was not one, but two voices that weren't his own!

He stood there panicked and trying to rationalize the situation 'Maybe I'm just stressed? The sentences aren't too long so maybe I'm just overwhelmed? Or maybe-' He got pulled from this train of thoughts as he heard another voice, one that sounded almost machine like due to the monotone.

"TheFitnessGram™ Pacer test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster every minute after you hear this signal. A single lap should be completed after you hear this sound. Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. On your mark, get ready, start."

He was too stunned to speak and instead just stared at the ground speechless. So many questions filled his mind with little to no answer for all of them. The first one being 'What the heck is TheFitnessGram™'

Again, he got ripped from this train of thoughts as the voice softened up and sounded more human "Oh wait shoot-, Sorry so sorry, that was meant to annoy someone else, sorry if that spooked you dude, also nice forest, WOAH I'm gonna make a flower crown for you" They said sounding more happy.

Sabre stopped trying to rationalize things as a headache started to brew its way into his mind. 'Okay, so these voices aren't hallucinations from stress.' He thought, getting that clear should eliminate any other possibility that this is just his mind playing tricks on him.

"Hi sabre" And they know him by name, he groaned slightly. "Please don't freak out but we are the voices in your head" and that just confirmed his most irrational theory. "Okay now you can freak out while I find some chaos to do"

He mentally replied 'Just don't kill any steves' He's still panicking but it's less obvious.

But since he has voices now there has to be an explanation for it! Voices can't just appear out of no where, the person needs trauma to actually experience voices!—

...

This thought answered his own question.

He heard someone call his name from inside the small house and went in and saw his friends sitting in their respectful chairs and eating food.

He sat down, forcing a smile as he ignored his food as the energy filled steve started a conversation "So what were you doing outside Sab's?" He cursed under his breath and tried to come up with a excuse and said "Just tryin' to clear my mind"

"Of what?" The Yellow steve asked as the Green steve watched in curiosity. The Player debated for a while whether or not to tell them the truth or to make up a lie.

'They're trustworthy right? But then again they would think I'm crazy and I don't want my friends to think I'm crazy! But they would be believing a sweet lie and I don't want that either..What should I do?'

The Player just stared at the table causing the Steves to be concerned, why wasn't he answering? The former assistant looked at the therapist of the trio signaling he needs some support. The Green steve sighed and said

"Sabre, you can tell us the truth we're your friends but if you don't want to tell us so be it. Just because you have secrets doesn't mean you can't be our friend, right?" He said bringing Sabre back to reality and smiled but also wondering. "How'd you know?-" He asked as the Green steve looked at the Yellow steve and chuckled "It's a secret" He said placing his index finger on his mouth.

"Oh come on!" The Player exclaimed in a joking manner as all of them laughed. The Green steve noticing something stopped the laughter "Are you gonna eat your food?" He asked as Sabre screamed internally "I'm not hungry, don't worry!" He replied 'Hopefully they believe that'

Somehow, they did believe that but that doesn't mean they were reassured.
