☆One and the same☆ (Sun and Moon fanfiction)

Chapter 8

🌜Moondrop's🌛POV:

          My head wasn't hurting anymore, and my mind felt... Quiet. Quieter than ever, actually. I opened my eyes and tried to get up, but I couldn't. It looks like I'm trapped on some kind of table? Big and metal table. My wrist is trapped, my neck, waist and above my feet. What the hell?

          I didn't want to panic or anything like that, even though this made me feel uncomfortable. Trapped like this. I looked aside and saw... A rabbit mascot? Ugly costume, I must say.

🔪- Oh, dear Moon! Are you awake? - He turned to face me and got closer to the table.

🌜- Yes, I am. Who are you, if I may ask?

🔪- Moondrop, don't you remember? I'm your creator!

🌜- Creator? - I was confused.

🔪- Well, yes! It's okay, Moon. We didn't see each other in quite a while. Let me introduce myself! My name is Glitchtrap. I am the owner of this building and the creator of every animatronic here. Including you and Sun!

🌜- I don't wanna be rude, sir, but is that your real name or like the performance one? Sorry, I'm just not familiar with humans having such names. This is purely an informative question.

🔪- No, Moon, that's okay! I can see your concern. Don't you worry about that. Now! You must wonder what's happening, yes?

🌜- Well, I suppose. Why am I chained to this table?

🔪- Oh, sorry about that, dear Moon! I forgot to set you free.

          He took the keys from the small table beside him and unlocked everything that kept me paralysed here. I stood up in a sitting position.

🌜- That's a relief.

🔪- I'm certainly very sorry for that, but I didn't want you waking up and possibly trying to do something you shouldn't while I wasn't here.

🌜- Why would I do that?

🔪- Now, Moondrop, I need you to tell me something. You can be honest with me. This conversation can last as long as you want it to, we are alone. Well, until I turn him on.

🌜- Turn who on?

          I was genuinely still confused by everything that was happening right now. This guy seems a bit suspicious. I don't know, maybe it's just his way of talking. Weird man.

          He moved away and showed me another big metal table, just like the one I was on. I was shocked to see who was on it. It was... Sun. How...

🔪- I think I got some of your problems solved!

🌜- ... How is that possible? Is that really Sun? - I stood up and walked up to him.

🔪- Of course it is Sun! I thought it was time to separate you two. You were never one and the same, were you?

🌜- No...

🔪- So, that's why I want to talk with you, Moondrop. With zero offence to him, I thought you would be a bit more serious to talk with.

🌜- I guess.

🔪- Now, even though I could already assume what happened, could you tell me exactly what happened? Miss Vanessa found you two broken in your room.

🌜- Oh, did she...

🔪- She did.

🌜- I don't know what to say... Sun and I had an argument, I suppose. It certainly wasn't the first time but this time... It was more difficult.

🔪- I see, I see.

🌜- We kinda fought for control, I guess. Sun wasn't letting me out. He wouldn't let me breathe! I was sick of it... But he still refused to let me out. I couldn't do my job either!

🔪- Oh? Tell me about it.

🌜- He would always say it's for the best. I tried to be calm about it and not make a big deal out of it, but it got draining. I could do absolutely nothing. All I could do was just think to myself and watch what Sun was doing. I could talk with him sometimes, but we ran out of pretty topics, I guess.

🔪- He basically trapped you in your head?

🌜- Well, basically, yes. It could have been better if he just let me do my job at the very least! He removed all the 'Nap times' from the daily schedules and didn't let me do my night patrols! He would even sleep with the lights being on!

🔪- Oh, I see Moon... I assumed something like that might happen. I understand you. You two started fighting about it, trying to forcefully switch for too long and your system got so heaten up that it started melting!

🌜- Melting? We melted?

🔪- Partly. Your face got all melted and messed up, along with some smaller body parts, like fingers, for example. Do you wish to see your old body? It's in the back.

🌜- I think I'll pass that horror show.

🔪- Fair enough. Do you wish to tell me anything else, Moon?

🌜- I appreciate this, sir, but I think I'm good for now.

🔪- I'm glad to hear that! Let's turn on Sun, shall we?

🌜- Go on.

          Glitchtrap turned Sun on and backed away a bit. Sun seemed to gain consciousness slowly as he opened his eyes.

🌞- Ugh... What happened? - He tried standing up, like I did. - Wait, 'Parts and service'? Oh no... NO!

🔪- It's alright, Sundrop! You-

          Sun flinched, closed his eyes and started spinning his rays really fast. I didn't know he could do that... It's good that Glitchtrap backed away. His arms could have been cut off! Damn.

🔪- Hey, Sunny, it's okay! Nobody is here. It's just me.

🌞- Oh, I'm sorry, sir! I got startled! - He stopped spinning his sunrays.

🔪- It's okay, I knew you would be.

🌞- Can you let me get up now, please?

🔪- Of course, Sundrop. Are you calm now?

🌞- I'd say so.

🔪- Alright then. - He freed him as Sun stood up. He still didn't notice me. - Look who's standing in the corner, Sunny boy!

          Sun looked over Glitchtrap's shoulder and saw me. His eyes widened as he stared at me. Not knowing what to do, I just stared back. What do I even say now? Last time we spoke, we basically killed ourselves! ... This is awkward.

🔪- Look, I know you two have a lot to talk about! So, I'll go do my stuff now. Moon, you know the whole Mega Pizzaplex, you can lead the way to the Daycare when you're done here, okay?

🌜- Of course, sir.

🔪- Alright then! See you two sometimes soon!

          Glitchtrap said his goodbye and left the room. Sun and I were alone once again, just staring at each other, speechless. What now?
