"One Of Us" Among Us Alternate Animation

Chapter 5

I stared at the sky. There's alot to think about. I got a new pet, a new crewmate joined us and I'm finally going to be able to talk to Red in private. I felt something dropped on my lap. I looked down to see a stick. P/N is in front of me waiting. I picked up the stick, 'Do you want to play fetch?'. It nodded excitedly. I threw it and it slither after it. I chuckled while shaking my head. I don't understand why some of the crewmates don't like P/N. Yeah, it's a parasite. But it's about as innocent as a normal pet.

P/N came back with the stick and place it on my lap. I petted them while saying happily,'Good job, P/N.'. I suddenly had an uncomfortable feeling that something was approaching me. I quickly looked behind myself to see nothing? I itched my head while feeling very confused. I guess I'm starting to get tired. P/N looked kinda scared. I looked at it concerned, 'Did you see something?'. It nodded. So, something WAS coming towards. I have no idea what it is. But at least it's left.

Red step out of the door. I looked them, 'Oh good. Now, we can finally talk privately.'. They walk towards me sit down next to me and sighs,'You want to talk to me about something. If it's really important, which it most likely is, then I think you should go first.'. That's very considerate of them. I deeply sigh, 'Back at Skeld, when you were fighting against Purple, I saw the device stabbing your hand. It must've hurt like hell. But please be honest with me about this. Did it...do something else to you?'. They stayed silent for a long while. I looked at them concern, 'Look, if it's something serious, you know that you can tell me. I won't tell anyone else, if that's what you're worry about.'. They looked like they're in deep thought, before they asked, 'You really won't tell anyone, even if it's something really bad?'. 'Red, I trust you. You're my friend after all. I hate to see you suffer in silence. I know you, ever since I joined Skeld. You should know very well that I'm good at keeping a secret.', I said in a reassuring tone of voice.

They stay silent for quite awhile. Is it really THAT bad? I hope that they're not dying. I truly hate to lose another friend because of the imposters. Red hesitantly sighs, before a mouth suddenly appeared on their face and the tips of their fingers became much sharper. This is what the device did to Red!? It literally turned them into the very thing that everyone fears?! I sat there speechless, while mentally freaking out. They nervously said, 'The device did this to me. I can't risk telling anyone that I'm an imposter. I'm afraid that if I did, they'll want to kill me without a second thought.'. I stared at them shocked. I completely understand why they were so hesitant in telling me their secret. It isn't something that you can just bluntly say without anyone having a fucking heart attack or, more likely, freaking out. Any other person would've just run straight to the emergency button.

But I'm not going to do that. I hugged them in a comforting way, ' Red, I would never do that to you and same goes with Yellow, Glitchy, Blue and White. I don't blame you for not wanting to tell us. But you're going to have to tell them sooner or later. How are we supposed to help you, if you stay silent about it?'. I felt them hugging me back silently crying. I sighed, 'I understand that you're not ready to tell them.'. 'No. I'm really not. But I'll tell them eventually, when the time is right.', they said while still tearing up a bit. I help wipe the remaining tears off of their face, 'And while you built up the courage, I won't tell them anything until then. I promise.'. They seem to have calm down as they looked at me, 'Thanks alot, Y/N.'. 'No problem Red. You just need some time. Now, what were you going to tell me?', I asked.

They suddenly had an expression that look like they just remember something, 'Oh right! I almost forgot!'. They gave me a serious look, 'I want you to be very careful, whenever you're around Olive. Especially since they're your roommate now.'. I felt very confused, 'Why? Didn't you say that they're a crewmate who got away from the parasite.'. They stayed silent for a few minutes, 'I did. It's just that.....I can't explain it to you now. But you'll understand why eventually.'.

I don't understand why. They just told me that the device turned them into an imposter, but they couldn't tell me why I should be careful around Olive? It doesn't make any sense at all.  I sighed out of frustration, 'I don't get why I should be careful. But I'll be take your advice only because I barely know them.'. 'Good. I'll see you at the office in the morning.', they said happily before standing up and walking inside. I sighed and looked at P/N. It's staring behind me. I gave it a concerned look, 'P/N, why are you doing that?'. It jump from being started and look up at me. I quickly look behind to see nothing. This is just weird. I'm kinda scared now. I picked up and stand up, 'We better get some rest anyway.'. I nervously laughed as I walk back inside and go to my and Olive's room.

Y/N and Olive's room

I'm making a small bed at the foot of my bed for my pet. It gonna need a place comfortable place to sleep at. P/N and Olive, who is on their bed, are having a staring match for some reason. It's was silly at first. But now, it's starting to kinda creep me out. I purposely slammed my hand onto the dresser, breaking them out of their staring match and most likely startled the hell out of them. I glared at them, 'Are you two done having a stare off?'. Olive looked away while blushing a bit from embarrassment, 'Sorry. I didn't realize I was doing that.'. I sighed and went back to making the small bed. They looked at me confused, 'What are you doing?'. 'Making a bed for P/N. It'll need a comfortable place to sleep at.', I respond without looking at them.

I heard them got off from their bed and walk towards me,'You know, I can give you some advice about taking care of a parasite pet.'. 'Oh really? Are you the parasite whisperer?', I said jokingly. I heard them chuckle at my joke, 'In a way, yes. I know plenty about them. Like for example, once they imprint onto their owner, they protect them in anyway possible from danger. Such as staring at one area with a worry look for a long time to warn them.'. I finish making the bed. P/N was doing that earlier. I think it was protecting me from whatever it was that tried to harm me. I looked at Olive shocked, 'P/N did something like that earlier, when I was outside.', 'Then it did a good job watching your back.', they said with a smug look on their face. I felt something headbutting my leg. I look down to see P/N. I picked it up and placed it on it's bed, 'What do you think? Is it comfortable enough?'. It curled up around the small bed, let out a big yawn and fell asleep. I had a happy expression on my face, 'I guess that's our que to go to sleep.'. Olive nodded in agreement and walk back to their bed.

I got onto my bed and pulled the covers over myself. They did the same. I glanced at them, 'If you like me to, I can try give you a tour to this place. It might be a little confusing at first. But you'll get use to it eventually with time.'. 'They will really be great.', they said happily. I let out a yawn, 'Cool. I'll see you in the morning. Goodnight Olive.'. I closed my eye to go to sleep. But the last thing I saw and heard before I fell asleep was Olive smiling at me, 'Goodnight Y/N.'.
