Third person POV

It was becoming night, the almost white lighting changing to an orange then to a dim blue. Every one was inside, getting ready for the night, going into their rooms and getting in their beds to go to sleep and hope that tomorrow they'll wake up at home as if this was a weird dream.

But one of them couldn't get any sleep, paintbrush. their headache was too much, they knew there had to be a bathroom here and that was the one place they could think of that could have pain killers.

Paintbrush POV

I walked down the hallway, seeing a room obviously marked bathroom, it was pretty close to my room anyways. I went inside, it's bigger than I expected, several sinks on the counter with a large mirror behind it and a curtain separating this area from what I'm guessing is the toilets and bathtubs.

I walk to the mirror, noticing a box that seems like it would be a for medicine or makeup, only one way to find out. I opened the box, medicine, there's even pain killers in here, I grab the pain killers and a cup on the counter, I fill the cup with water and swallow down one of the pain killers with it.

I look in the mirror, my hair was slightly red, I saw something red behind me. Of course I'm not an idiot so I turn around to see if someone is actually there or if I have to run for my life. Nobody was there, nothing red. I ran to the door that somehow closed, it's locked

"Shit-"

I turned back around, the red figure took my place in the mirror. I realized I wasn't in my body any more. I watched as whatever was possessed my body unlocked the bathroom door and went into the kitchen, grabbing a knife. Oh fuck, it's going to try killing someone isn't it.. I follow it to my room, yinyang is awake, wait seems like only yin is.

"There you are paintbrush- wait why do you have a knife?"

I saw it put the knife away, not saying anything about it. It got into my bed and faked being asleep?

"... Something's wrong... "

Morning, ???? Pov

T

his body...
Weak...
But its power...
Strong...
Kill...
Burn...
Kill...
I move this body out of its bed and make it reach for the knife...
The knife is not there...
I make the body leave the room...
I see that thing...
The thing that seems to be this body's friend...
Kill...
Burn...
Kill...

"Um, paintbrush, are you-"
"YIN STOP YOU KNOW THEY AREN'T OKAY. "

Forgot the thing was two in one body...
I make this body, feeling more like my own now, walk away from them...
This body cannot teleport like I used to...
Walking will take some time to get used to...
I realize my thoughts are less basic...
This body is not feral like I used to be...
This body is good...
I made the right choice...
I grab the knife from the kitchen drawer...
I turn around...
The short skeleton is there...

"look kid, i dunno what got into you, but i know your aren't you."

I held the knife tight...

"i'm warning you once, put the knife down."

I tried to stab him...
I missed...
He was gone...
I was restrained...

"well, kid, you got guts, but i know you don't stand a chance against me..."

I was teleported...
It's too dark to see...

"i got em"
"Good, put them on the table and hook them up"

I was strapped down, the knife taken from me...
I attempted to talk...

"A-"

My mouth was covered...
The leaf was removed from the body's hair...
I was losing control but I held on...
A switch was flicked...
A machine hummed...
A dim light was in the room...
I saw that the body was on the machine...
The machine...
It removed me from the body...
I had a new body now...
Weak and powerless...
But I looked the same as I used to...
I look to the paintbrush...
They're back in their body...
They got to be set free...
I was tied up and guided out...

Dib POV

The machine worked, I'm not sure why it was in the basement but it helped unpossess paintbrush. I walked the new form of the ghost that had possessed them upstairs. I had to tie it up so it wouldn't run away and kill someone. It looks like a living object like paintbrush or golf ball. But it was a red leaf, its face was messed up too.
As I walked it down the hallway I saw golf ball step out of her room. She saw the red leaf and I saw fear in her eyes.

"Wh- bu- no... It- it can't be... She- she died..."
"Don't worry, I'm going to make sure she doesn't hurt anyone. "
"Bu-"

Golf ball took a few deep breaths to calm down

"That's evil leafy... One of the most evil things ever"
"I think I can change that, I can't make her entirely good but I'll make sure she isn't evil enough to kill anyone"

I walked into my room, Zim was sleeping in, I didn't see GIR. I grabbed a wristband I got online and put it on evil leafy's wrist. She stopped thrashing around. It must have worked. I let go but didn't untie her. She walked away, leaving the room.
