She curled up in the backseat of Goo's bright yellow sports car as Logan tossed Xialong and Vivi in the trunk before jumping in shotgun, her heart and mind broken beyond relief. Johan, Eli, Jake...

All of them. Horrible. All of them knew the position she was in. Johan consumed by anger while she literally burned because of him, screaming in pain. Eli who was supposed to have come to save her, but instead was defeated while he tried to save Yenna's toy.

And Jake, the worst of all, despite all his 'romance' and 'devotion' who had seen her drugged and trapped and turned away.

The silent tears were streaming down her face faster and faster, her body shaking with the breathless sobs until she cried herself to sleep.

In her dreams, she was floating in a warm comfortable darkness so starkly different than the drug induced one. She was curled in a ball, a deep heat pressing into her, soothing her jagged heart.

In the darkness appeared a formless body. Immediately she knew she loved that being. Her heart was so overwhelmed and filled with affection her heart was racing. The being pointed up towards the the sky, urgently jabbing a smokey finger.

Okay. She manifested some bricks into existence, red and morbily flesh-colored. She began arranging them in a pyramid for them to ascend.

The figure jabbed more urgently, and she knew why, because there was a low emanating growl from all around them that was growing closer and closer and a spike of fear in her heart. She stacked the bricks faster, the figure continuing to annoyingly gesture. Before she had even placed another row of bricks, the figure scrambled atop the pyramid, stepping on her fingers.

"Ow!" She protested, before trying to climb after them. The groan was getting closer and closer, hurtling towards them as she tried to avoid the falling bricks that the figure was dislodging as it climbed higher above her.

A deep cold shudder ran through her body as a scaly hand closed around her ankle. She immediately bucked and tried to kick them off, fingers scrambling against the loose red bricks which did nothing but pull them out.

"Help!" she shrieked to the figure whom she had loved so much, but the figure didn't even look back, climbing higher and higher away from her as the sharp hands pulled her down grabbing higher and higher, finally settling on her throat and covering her mouth as she tried to scream again—

***

She gasped awake, blinking away the tears that were spilling out of her eyes. What a bizarre dream. How could the figure betray her like that?? I should've climbed up first, she thought bitterly.

This always happened. She built steps for everyone with her own and they would step on her fingers to climb up without a look back down.

Every time she closed her eyes Yenna's pink heart toy flashed across her vision, around which were wrapped Eli's fingers. He couldn't stand a day of Yenna's crying for YN's whole life?

She simply wouldn't last.

Her eyes were swollen face bloated from all the crying, but the throb of betrayal in her heart seemed to be quieting away.
