[GLISTEN]

My god I am beautiful.

I was just sitting on my seat reapplying my makeup for the nightly check up before it's lights out and time for bed. I was wearing my casual pink short glittery dress with matching high-heels to match, Ruby red droopy earrings and my makeup done carefully with love and diamonds. No one could resist me after this.

I got up and grabbed my red ruby dior bag before heading out of my room, closing the door after myself and heading down the stairs to the main area where all the toons already were. My eyes trailed to Rodger who was wearing his casual black suit with a purple tie. A little 8-ball shaped toon was standing next to him wearing a white long dress with small slippers. I just made my way over to him, of course he noticing me before I could take more than a couple steps forward.

Our eyes met and his mouth curled up to a small smile as he saw me. Weird right? I just smiled back and stood next to him, his eyes still on me before he looked forward again, the little 8-ball toon just staring dead in the eye at me. I just gave her a quick smile before attending forward onto what seemed like a stage? I didn't know what was happening but based on the face of the other toons, something serious was about to commence here within this very room.

A light green toon rose from the floor, his face surrounded by flower petals. I assumed he was Dandy, the leader and boss of us toons. His beady black eyes scanned us till his eyes glued onto me. Of course they glued onto me! I was the best afterall!

''Oh my dear! You must be Glisten right! I'm Dandy, your headmaster and leader of all toons, yourself included! Welcome to Gardenview, the home and safe space of all toons and toon handlers alike! I bet we will see alot of good from you..'' Dandy smirked and winked at me. I instantly knew he was not to be trusted, but I smiled and nodded at him, just to be respectful.

He then pulled out a scroll and started yelling out names to make sure every single toon was present. Everyone was other than Boxten. Dandy's expression shifted into a forced smile and I felt uneasy so I wrapped my arms around Rodger, he staring at me for a while before wrapping his hand around my waist, clearly not very bothered by the fact I was holding his hand, which I loved. Rodger might just become my favorite out of everyone...

Once Boxten arrived, super late as always, Dandy nodded, wished us all goodnight and then dissapeared under the stage which I saw had a little trapdoor with an elevator. I just guessed it took down to Dandy's room so I didn't pay much attention to it and headed back to my room, Rodger somewhat following me before sneaking off to the left in a corridor and entered his room, the little 8-ball following him but taking a couple more steps and entering her room on the right. I just made a note of their rooms and entered mine, closing the door before taking my high heels off, tossing them to a corner and jumping onto the bed, laying there for a while before I started taking off my jewerly and outfit, changing into a more comfortable one..

I then took a seat infront of my vanity and started cleaning my face off of the makeup, admiring myself the entire time.

''Oh you're so beautiful Glisten!~ Everyone was adoring and loving you in that room!'' I was giving myself affirmations before jumping onto the bed again and laying down, opening my laptop which was pink themed that I found wrapped up in a pink bow on my bed, typing in my password and opening up my streaming app that let me watch shows for free. I of course went for Mean girls and started playing the movie, taking a comfortable laid down position on my bed while sipping water from my pink cup and enjoying the evening for as long as it lasted, till we got an announcement again.

''Dear toons! The clock has hit 10pm, which is lights out! Goodnight and we'll see you again tomorrow!''

The announcement echoed outside so I closed up my laptop, placed it neatly onto my bedside table before laying down, taking my pink eye mask that had a writing ''princess'' in a gold calligraphy on it, slipping it onto my eyes and neatly tucking myself into my bed, switching to that comfortable side position and closing my eyes, letting myself drift to that sweet sweet unconciousness..

''It's just a dream.. It's just a dream..'' I was hyperventilating. I knew I was. I looked around and was in what seemed like the living room of Gardenview. But the toons weren't themselves... something.. black was filling them up.. I could recognise boxten, but when he turned to look at me, his eyes were bloodshot red and the top of his head was dripping something black.. As if they were... Twisted. in a way.. I couldn't think about it anymore when Boxten started chasing me. I slipped into a corner and watched as he lost track of me and headed the other way.. I fell on my knees and started breathing more heavily. Something was VERY wrong about this dream. It felt too real. I slipped my way into the small room that I was in, looking around my eyes glued onto a.. machine? It had a red wheel.

''This clearly wasn't here the last time I checked..''  my hand trailed around the wheel and I took one good spin, the machine filling up with black liquid. It looked similar to what Boxten was covered in.. I tried to fill up the machine as quick as possible till I felt a sharp pain in my back what got me to whine and fall to the ground, holding my stomach that was now dripping of my blood.

''w-what..!'' My eyes glued onto Boxten, his hand had went through my stomach. I gasped for air as he got closer.

''Boxten it is I, Glisten! w-what are you doing? WHAT!! I- STOP!!''

I woke up screaming at the top of my lungs, Rodger right next to me on his white t-shirt and sweatpants.

''Glisten are you okay?!''
