A Light in the Darkness

A/N: This chapter is much more laid back than the rest. Enjoy a death free chapter! :)

The drip from the faucet could be heard.

Rebecca rubbed her exhausted face with some water before looking up at herself.

She had felt awful since the events had happened.

She had been so stressed during the scramble to get here, she had lost a hold on Telum, and he ran and hid into the shadows.

She prayed that they were safe.

She had tried to leave to get him back, however other OCs refused to let her leave for him.

It had only been 4 hours since the attack, the house had been somewhat silent.

Rebecca was still lost in thought.

She knew that Telum had the ability to hide and travel in shadows, however, it was impossible to get where they were hiding since the backrooms were so lit up, no shadows, not even other peoples shadows could even be seen.

She knew he could probably take care of himself, however that didn't make her any less paranoid.

There was a knock on the door and Rebecca jumped.

“Inky, are you okay?” Called out a familiar voice.

She smiled and opened the door to reveal Curly.

Even though she may have lost Telum, Curly was still by her side, and she was going to make sure she did everything she could to keep him safe.

“I'm doing fine,” She said, giving him a tired smile. “Just thinking..”

Curly frowned and crossed his arms, “Well don't think too hard. I know you personally aren't known for being well when you are left alone with your thoughts…”

Her mind drifted back to the night of the car crash.

“Haha… Right. I am doing okay though, promise.”

She gave him a small smile and he eyed her to make sure she wasn't lying.

“Okay then…. Anyways, I am feeling really hungry, do you know the next time we are going to be able to eat….?”

She felt concerned, it seemed like he had a bigger appetite than he had before.

She shook my head, “Sorry, Curly, not sure there is anything filling here. I mean, there is canned fruit, if you really want?”

He slightly gagged, “No thanks, I don't think I am that hungry…”

He seemed disappointed, but there really wasn't a lot of food here.

Usually Linxer would be able to help, or even Narrator, but neither of them seemed to be at the safe room.

Curly stared at me with a weird glance.

“Is there something wrong?”

“Huh? What? Um.. No, I am okay…” It seemed like he was in a trance.

“Okay then…” Rebecca's concerns grew, but she felt like needed to get her mind off of things. 

She walked ahead, Curly tailing behind her as she headed to go see other OCs and how they were doing.

As she entered the main room of the safe room, it seemed like OCs seemed just as on edge as she did.

There were some chatting with each other, some staying on their phone, probably texting Felicity or someone else, and some who were by themselves staying quiet.
