*Brud's Thoughts*

Simon... brother...

Yum yum, Simon love food.

Cake, ice cream, cookies...

Simon's tummy always happy.

But then... then Black's curse came.

Simon hungry... so hungry.

No food... no yummy.

Simon eat... weird things.

Paper, rocks, dirt...

No, no, no! Simon, no!

*Memories Fragment*

Brud recalls playing with Simon.

Simon's smile... big and wide.

But then... darkness.

Simon's eyes... changed.

Hungry, hungry, hungry...

Simon's teeth... sharp.

Biting... bucket...

Brud's head...

No pain... just numb.

Simon eating... side of Brud's head.

Brud's thoughts scatter.

Why Simon do that?

Brother...

*More Memories*

Simon biting... Brud's side.

Torso... hurt...

But no pain...

Brud confused...

Why Simon eat me?

Don't understand...

*Present Time*

Brud's eyes focus.

Funbot's face... worried.

"Brud, okay?" Funbot asks.

Brud nods... slowly.

Funbot hugs Brud.

"Simon... gone?" Brud whispers.

Funbot's expression... sad.

"We'll find way... make Simon better," Funbot promises.

Brud's heart... heavy.

Miss Simon... brother...
