Another day started, it was probably 12:14am? Both of them didn't knew

Emma felt sick, she didn't wanted to see Conny's dead body again. Or see those demons, Mom betraying them, and how the demons said they'd ship out Ray first because of his birthday

She sighed, looking at Norman with a depressive face, Little Bunny was thrown away in the room, closer to the wardrobe that had in there, she was sad, more of it, she was feeling guilt, for this time, knowing, Conny was going to die, and even that, she let her sibling die to that demons' hands

Norman went closer to her, hugging her tight, his hand tracing in a circle motion on her back as Emma sobbed on Norman's shoulder

This was happening again, a panic attack that she thought she'd never have again, and Emma was no where to be ok with this, neither Norman

Her breathing unstable and her chest hurt, Emma clenched her fists against the wooden floor as she tried to make her mind focus on reality again

It took some minutes to Norman finally calms Emma down, he was worried about his friend, and she was one of his top priority

Emma breathe got cracked, but her voice left her throat any how

— "I d-don't want t-them to die, N-Norman.."— She sobbed, trying hard to not cry

The expression in Norman's face suddenly changes from fear to surprise, he didn't thought this was the reason Emma was scared.

— "We a-are g-going to escape with everyone" — Emma sobbed on Norman's shoulder, not willing to look at his face

— "We'll try and succeed, Emma" — He comforted the red head girl, still rubbing her back in circle motion

— "W-We have to.." — She cried her words, not loud nor desperate, she was determined to escape

— "Tomorrow act as yourself, ok Emma?" — Norman said softly, nudging Emma's hair with his hand

She let a soft grunt in reply, soon to stay quiet

Norman hold gently Emma for some minutes, as her sobs turned into a soft snore, and the white haired boy knew she'd fall asleep on his arms

Norman smiled, whipping his own tears away as he tried to grab Emma, failing miserably

'Sometimes i hate being so weak!' He grunted, looking for Ray or someone who could put her to bed other than Mom

He left her leaning on the bed frame, got up and wake up Ray, who was just a bed away from him

None to Norman's surprise, the raven haired boy was awake

— "She's better?" — He said simply, getting up from the bed, and walking slowly to where Norman left Emma

— "For now, I don't think she can hide it well from Mom" — He said, Norman knew that Ray had eavesdrop everything, so there was no reason for him to lie about the reason for this panic attack Emma had

— "So, demons huh? You guys escaped without being spotted, right?" — Ray asked, lifting Emma up in his arms

The limping body of a bright orange haired girl nuzzled on Ray's chest, making the boy stiff, but as soon he relaxed, he brought her to her bed and tucking her in

— "Yes, we didn't left Little Bunny there, so there was no mistake, Mom doesn't know that someone went to the Gate, so for some time we'll be fine" — Norman stated, going to Emma's bed, sitting down by the unconscious girl

— "Hmm i see, so now we should really start to make a plan" — Ray said, walking away from the last spot he was, and taking a place beside Norman

— "We need to escape, so, we need firstly know, what we are dealing with and where to escape from" — Ray said, looking at Norman with a deadpanned expression, Norman nodded
