Before You Go (Skephalo)

Chapter 1

"Skeppy!" Bad shouted angrily "Fix the spawn right now!"

Skeppy giggled a little "What are you talking about? I'm not even on."

"Skeppy I know this was you!"

"I'm not even oon!" Skeppy reiterated. Waves of 2018 nostalgia washed over him.

"I can- I can literally see you!" He yelled. Bad's character was standing in front of Skeppy, clearly watching him break spawn. Skeppy held back his laugh and kept going anyway. Suddenly the whole world was set to 50% lava and 50% water, thus crashing the server.

"Skeppy! Are you- What the fudge, Skeppy!?"

"I didn't do anything!!" Skeppy muted his mic and began to laugh as Bad made a ton of angry noises, yelling plenty of "Oh my goodness"es. He could've sworn he heard Bad hit the table a few times. Skeppy missed this. He hadn't trolled Bad like this in years, but his fans kept begging for it. Overall, Skeppy felt bad, but calmed down knowing he had a backup. Finally MunchyMc reloaded and Skeppy went back into kitpvp.

"Skeppy I thought we were done with this. You have a backup, i know you do, put in the backup right now!"

"I told you, it's not me!"

"Thats it, I'm done." The sound of someone leaving a discord call was heard.

"No! Come back!" Skeppy laughed, expecting to hear his voice again in a few seconds. But, he didn't. Bad didn't come back. Skeppy didn't think much of it and continued laughing, talking into the mic. He waited two minutes, then five, then ten, then twenty.. Surely he was going to come back any minute. He sat there, making little changes to spawn as he waited, but his best friend never joined back.

Skeppy started to really feel bad. Him and BadBoyHalo were closer than ever before. He thought it would be fine since it's just like old times but.. he felt guilty. Skeppy eventually fixed the spawn with the backup and got off. He sat on his bed and got out his phone. He called Bad over the phone instead of Discord. He answered.

"Bad, I'm sorry.."

"Skeppy." There was awkward silence for a second. "Skeppy I don't want to talk to you right now."

"Bad I'm sorry, I really am, I just wanted to mess with you a little bit, I-"

"Hah! I got you, you muffinhead." Bad laughed.

"Bad! You- You scared me!"

"That's what you get!" Bad kept laughing, while Skeppy was just relieved. "I trolled you right back."

"Dude. I thought you weren't gonna speak to me for at least a week."

"No. I always want to speak to you, Zak, you muffin."

Skeppy paused, he felt like his body took a screenshot.

"That was so cursed." Skeppy laughed, "You never call me Zak"

Bad laughed, lightly flustered, "Well I thought it would help get my point across." Bad crossed his arms as if Skeppy could see it. "I couldn't ignore you. You mean alot to me, Skeppy. There. I called you Skeppy."

"Okay. Darryl."

...

"Stop!"

Skeppy burst into laughter again. That muffinhead meant alot to Skeppy too, but it's not like he was gonna admit that.

"You know Bad, Vidcons coming up this month.."

Bad paused, he forgot, he felt his heart start racing. Thinking about meeting Skeppy scared the fudge out of him. He was so afraid of messing up and having Skeppy leave. It was his biggest fear.

"Bad?"

"Ah! Yes Skeppy, I remember."

"And you're still going?"

There was a bit of a pause.

"Yes, Skeppy.." Bad finally responded, strong distaste in his voice.

"Yay!! I'm so excited!" Skeppy squealed.

Hearing his friends excitement calmed him down a little and made him smile. "Me too, I can't wait to see how short you are in person." Bad giggled.

"You're shorter than I am!"

Bad giggled once more, "Whatever you say, you shorty."

Skeppy hung up.

"Hey!" Bad yelled, jokingly offended.

Bad streamed that night with Quackity and  eventually went to bed.

He dreamed about Skeppy and meeting up with him, except everything went wrong. Bbh kept messing up and stuttering, causing Skeppy to mock him. The mocking made Bad cry, which resulted in even more bullying. Suddenly all his friends started appearing around him, next to Skeppy, pointing and laughing. Skeppy pushed Bad onto the sidewalk and walked away with everyone else. Bad sat there in horror, crying, watching the people he loved most leave him.

Suddenly Bad jumped awake. He was sweating a lot. He looked down at Lucy and pet her. It was just a dream. Bad laid back down to try and get more sleep, but that moment kept replaying in his head. Over and over he saw them leave him. Bbh couldn't sleep like this, it was 4 AM, but he got on his phone anyway.

Skeppy had posted a new video. Bad clicked on it, and sure enough, it was the troll from earlier. Bad didn't know Skeppy recorded the short call though. It includes Bad talking about Vidcon and going. Great, now he definitely can't back out now.

He looked at the comments full of excited fans and skephalo shippers. It made him smile. He loved the shippers because he loved looking at the art they made. Just then, he knew how to cheer himself up. He clicked on the youtube search bar and looked up skephalo. He watched plenty of maps, edits, animations, and clips of him and his best friend. He did that for a while longer, then calmly went back to sleep, no nightmares this time.
