𝐴𝑆 𝑇𝐻𝐸 𝑅𝐸𝐷 𝑃𝐴𝐼𝑁𝑇 hit the canvas, the painting became more horrifying by the second. What was truly horrifying was her absent look towards the horror. The depiction of her darkest rage was open to the world, even something that had happened, but Juno couldn't remember. Juno's numb state was painting a picture of the Reaper's curved dagger sticking out of the chest of a dark skinned man. His hand was on his chest and blood poured out of his wound.
Allison glanced over at the depiction of Victor's dead corpse, but without his face in the drawing, she couldn't tell who it was. That didn't mean that she wasn't disturbed by Juno's...artistic choice. "Juno, what are you painting?"
"Two days ago." Was all Juno said in a monotone voice. Juno, again, could feel nothing. She had gone all day without one of her episodes, but here she was, sitting in art class with Lydia and Allison, Isaac a few seats away, and she felt completely numb.
Lydia, curious by their conversation, peaked over to look at Juno's easel. She glanced over to Allison, the two girls sharing a concerned look since they've never once seen Juno create something so horrific. Lydia asked, "Um, what happened two days ago?"
Juno didn't answer. Her eyes stayed trained on her painting as she continued to add more red. Lydia snapped in front of her friend's face. Juno's expression immediately changed and shook her head a little, finally snapping out of her trance. Her eyebrows immediately furrowed at the painting in front of her. She had no recollection of making that. "What the hell is that?"
"Something morbid and horrifying that you are not going to think about." Lydia informed as she ripped the piece of paper off her friend's easel and crumbled it up. She threw it in the garbage behind her and motioned to the new piece of paper. "Start over."
"What's going on with you?" Allison asked, genuinely concerned for the girl. Juno let out a breath and pinched the bridge of her nose, incredibly stressed with these moments of numbness. "I think it's like Stilinski and Scott hallucinating. I just got my own special version of it, I guess."
