Gabriel just froze on the floor, he didn't know what to do, he's bleeding, he's in pain, and he's confused. too much. all of these, it's too much. a while ago the yellow bonnie with a crowd of kids his age invited him to a secret party with many candies and gift boxes. but it was a lie, it's all a lie. he locked them up here with him and kill them with a big knife he prepared on the table next to the cake

He look around the room while trying to keep his head on the ground to keep the illusion that he is already dead (well it's not like he have enough energy to lift his head anyway), there is no window or vent or any alternative way to leave the room other than the door where they came from, it might be locked but maybe it's worth the try? . Who knows, maybe the rabbit man forgot to lock the door or something.

He slowly crawls, his body mostly stays on the floors, it's almost like those movie soldiers in their training montage. His arms are the parts of his body that are in pain the most, those are the ones that get stabbed and sliced the most as Gabriel desperately tries to protect his guts while the rabbit man tries to stab him, now every movement that his arms make gives him pain. Slowly but surely he soldiers crawl and get closer to the door, bloodtrail follow him and forming a long line, he is stabbed four times; two on the right side of his gut, one on the middle of his gut, and one on his chest.

*THUMP*

He was halfway there when the rabbit man put his feet on his back. He was done with his new friends and now noticed him. "You are a strong one!, I thought you died first!" The rabbit man playfully commented, his voice muffled behind the suit. With a swift and quick movement of his hand the rabbit send his knife to gabriel's-

Like thin ice on a lake, the grounds suddenly disappear, as if the ground collapsed under him. Gabriel knows that it's not true, yet it's true, at least for him. He fell deeper into the void under the earth. No, he is sinking, slowly.

As he sinks deeper the void becomes dark then pure black. It was a horrifying moment for Gabriel full of confusion mixed with fear of darkness and the unknown, but tiny lights started appearing. Tiny lights appear everywhere around the void, it reminds him of that one night when his father brought him to a lake to see the fireflies when he was younger, it was the most beautiful core memory. Soon those fears are replaced with awe and peace.

He stares at the view around here in awe for gods know how long (does time even moves here?) But he starts to notice that the deeper he sinks the lights appear less and and the black void gradually becomes red. Eventually, there are no lights and the black voids fully become vivid red, his eyes hate this.

Suddenly, there was something on the collar of his shirt, he touched it with his hands to feel it. It feels like some kind hook attached to a string, a fishing hook? Before he could process it the hook pulled him down fast-

The next thing he knew he was pulled out from a red lake in a red world. Apparently there is a point in the void that he didn't notice where he switched from sinking to rising. He is now hanging in the air by the collar on a fishing hook like a cartoon character. However, he's too busy being confused by the one that uses the fishing rod to think about how silly he looks.

The one that holds the fishing rod is obviously not human. It has a human frame but it's not even close to a human, its body is just a skeleton, its head might not be a gator's skull but it reminds Gabriel of one. "Welcome to the flipside, young one." The creature greets him as it gets him on the ground, it's voice wise yet quite horrifying.
