The image has nothing to do with this chapter, I just thought it was funny :)

Wilbur POV

I woke up to some very concerned people standing around where I laid in bed. Wait bed? What happened? Phil noticed I had woken up and came over to me.

"Hey mate, how you feeling?" he asked, his voice laced with concern.

"I feel fine I guess. My head hurts and I have a bit of a headache," I responded while rubbing my head a bit. Tallulah came over and I noticed it looked like she had been crying. I picked her up and set her on my lap. "Tallulah, mi niña, what's wrong?" I asked her, concerned about my daughter.

"You passed out and I got scared papa," she cried while burying her face in my sweater.

"Oh mi niña, I'm so sorry I frightened you. I'm alright I promise. Papa just got a little too dehydrated and passed out. It won't happen again, okay?" I told her softly, while rubbing her back. I had to lie to her. I couldn't tell her that I had gotten another vision which caused me to pass out.

Once Tallulah calmed down some, I looked around the room. Phil, Quackity, Foolish, and even Gegg were here. I needed to talk with Phil and Quackity as soon as possible. I told everyone I was okay and that I wanted to speak with Phil and Quackity alone. I decided to have Foolish take Tallulah for a moment while I spoke with them.

"Okay, we need to talk," I said to the other two once Foolish took the kids.

"What's going on mate?" Phil asked carefully.

I gave him a quick nod then turned to Quackity. "Quackity this is going to sound crazy but I'm having visions. And you were in my most recent one." He looked at me like I was insane but I kinda thought he would. "Just listen to me please," I practically begged him. He gave a slight nod so I continued, "I think I'm seeing an alternate reality of some sort. In my most recent vision, there was an election. At first I thought my party had won but I was wrong. You had made a deal with someone named Schlatt and pulled your party's votes to his party. You won the election. Well technically Schlatt won but that's not the point. The point is: I need you to believe me on this. I need your help to figure this whole thing out."

He just stared at me with a blank expression. I knew he wouldn't believe it right away but I was hoping that we would anyway. "Wilbur, you've always had a big imagination. This just another one of your fantasy things that you wish was real," Quackity said with a monotone voice. "It's best if you stop now." With that he left. Is he serious right now? He thinks I'm just imagining things? Seriously?! I swear I'll make him believe it one way or another.

I felt a hand on my should and looked up from the door to see a surprised Phil. "Uh mate? Your eyes are red. And I'm not talking like 'I've been crying' kind of red. Your eyes aren't brown anymore," Phil said quietly. I got up, confused as to what he meant, and walked over to the mirror in my house. There staring back at me was myself but I had red eyes and the white streak of hair had fallen out of my beanie.

"Phil," I whispered, "what's happening to me?" I looked at him then back at the mirror as he walked over to me. My eyes started to fade back into their normal dark brown color. I looked like me again. Except for the white streak in my hair that wouldn't go away no matter what I tried.

"I'm not sure. We will figure it out though. Together," he reassured me. There's something that has been bugging me for a while now ever since I told Phil about this.

"Hey Phil, how come you believed me instantly when I told you about all this?" I asked him.

He paused for a moment as if he was internally debating on telling me or not. But what he told me when he finally spoke, shocked me. "I've been seeing an old friend of mine. Almost as if he were a ghost," Phil finally said. "He tells me these stories about different things he has experienced. You and I are in some of those stories. He even told me a story about a place called L'Manburg. That's why I was shocked when you said the same name."

I looked at him with shock. Someone else knows about the country of mine from a different reality. I was happy but shocked at the same time.
