(Yo yo yo, another chapter! TW: SWEARING(?) angst, body horror, and uh.. more idk)

Sunny is absolutely dumbfounded.
Was he.. in heaven?
He didn't know, but here he was. Sitting on the ground, with his dead sister in front of  him.
"Cat, got your tongue, Sunny?" She asked playfully.
The only thing he could do at that moment was just to look up at her.

She sighed and offered her hand.
Sunny hesitantly reached his hand out and grabbed hers, pulling himself up. Mari gave him a kindhearted smile, giving his hand a squeeze.


It started to hurt.
Why is she hurting him.
It hurts stop.
Stop.

Sunny winces, trying to pull his hand back from Mari's. But further restraint was futile. He looked up at her with a pleading eye, but his eye dialted with fear.

That's.. not Mari.
I-its that freakish.. thing. That creature.. its abnormally stretched out neck that makes a cracking sound every time it moves. Its gross unhinged jaw, widening ever, so slightly.

Sunny tries to pull his hand back.

His attack does nothing.

Sunny shoves Mari(?)

His attack does nothing.

Sunny pushes Mari(?)

•  •  •

Mari(?) Has been defeated!

Sunny watches as it sinks down into the ground, his breathing shallow from stress. He sighs in relief and turns back to the gray door. He takes a step forward and slowly inches his way to the door.

Curious of what would be on the other side, he opens it.

A piercing white light blinds his vision. He blinks a couple of times and scans the area before him.
He steps into the white void and looks around.

Wait..

Whitespace?

This shouldn't exist anymore. He's dead..
His eye darts around, eventually landing on a black and white bo-
Omori?

He takes a step back in fear, but the door slams behind him, making him jump. While also alerting the boy in front of him. Omori slowly turns to look at him, his eyes widening in the process.

Sunny is mortified. He looks in both directions, refusing to look the boy in the eyes. He closes his eye tight.

"Time of death.. 1:43PM."
The doctor mumbles as he takes one more look at the body. "Poor kid.."
He walks out of the room and into the waiting area, where 3 people are sitting.

One of them looks up. "I-is he okay? C-can we save him!?" His voice cracks slightly, a worse contrast from his happy-go-lucky attitude.

"He's dead, Kel. You saw it, and I saw it, too." She says, lowly. She's even darker than before..

One of them puts a hand on her shoulder.
"Aubrey.. we're gonna be okay. It's gonna -" He gets cut off.

"Shut up, Hero. Like you would even know anything, you're probably gonna cry in your room all day, like how you did with Mari." Aubrey remarks with a digusted look on her face.

Kel seems to be still in shock after what has all happened today.
His face stained with tears.
"H-he's gonna be okay.. right?"
He looks up at the doctor.

The doctor sighs and speaks up.
"I.. I am sorry for your loss."











"What..?"

They all looked horrified.
Well, accept for Aubrey. She was expecting it.. But she still looked miserable.
Kel buried his face in his hands.
"W-why does this keep happening to us..?"
He spoke desperately.

Aubrey doesn't speak, her mind is racing, and she's close to having one of her.. episodes.

Hero stares down at the floor. His breathing getting heavier as he grips the fabric of his jeans.








"He's dead."
