Jeff's POV

I woke up in the middle of the night and I went to check on Angel. She's managing well for Toby being out for a year. I walked in to Toby's room and saw her, squirming. I figured she was having a nightmare. "Angel. Wake up." I shook her, just a little. She started screaming and shot up, flaming. She saw me and hugged me crying. "Angel. It's ok. It's just a dream, nothing more." I said, rubbing her back as she cried. She stopped flaming soon after.

"It's more than a dream Jeff. It's every day. My life is a nightmare without Toby. I love you, Jack and everyone but, I can't take it." She stuttered and sobbed. "I feel so useless." I really feel bad for her.

"Come on. You are gonna sleep in my room the rest of the night. And you are not useless." I said, picking her up before she could protest. I brought her into my room and set her on my bed. I tucked her in and waited until she fell asleep. I laid on the floor and stared at the ceiling for an hour before putting my eye mask on and falling asleep.

Jack's POV

I got to the cave that SHE lived in, and walked into the darkness. "Into the belly of the beast I go." I mumbled walking deeper into the cave, which opened up into a pit with lava running around the platforms at the bottom. This pit also had many caves leading to traps and what not, but I knew where I was going, this is my ex-girlfriend's place. I walked down the stairs passing multiple caves on the way down. I got to the level just above the lava platforms and wandered in the cave that lead to her actual house.

"Emma?" I said, walking in her house. She shouldn't hate me, because she broke up with me but, still I was ready for a fight.

"Jack?" She jumped on me, and hugged me. "It's been forever! How are you Jack? Wait, what's wrong?" She must have seen my expression. I sighed and I recapped her on what happened up until now.

"And Toby is unconscious and I was wondering if you would help me." She thought for a moment before swatting her long brown hair back and turning. Emma has schizophrenia and she doesn't remember her episodes, she has pale skin and a "stitched" mouth. Most people know her as Emma the Doll.

"What's in it for me Jack? You know I don't do things for free." And this is why I wish I broke up with her, she's so two-faced. I thought for a moment.

"What do you want? I'll see what I can do." She giggled and turned to me.

"I think you know what I want," she said, wrapping her arms around me and touching me, "one more time? And since you need my help, I think it's a fair trade." I shudder at the thought of being in bed with this girl again, but then I thought of how Lilia would be if I don't get Emma's help.

"Fine, but fix Toby first. I'm running on a deadline." She smiled and stopped holding me, "Whore!" I thought. I walked out of the cave, the way I came with Emma trailing behind me. We got back to the mansion, "Go wait on that side of the house, you know how Slendy is." She nodded and skipped off; I walked in and quietly ran to Toby's room. I saw Toby lying on the bed, alone. "Lilia must have had a nightmare and went to see Jeff." I thought opening the window and leaned out. Emma waved for me to stand back and I did, she came flying up and climbed in the window.

"You are lucky that I like you Jack." She said, walking over to Toby. She used her powers to heal Toby and she also linked Toby's awakening to Lilia's only a minute or two later.

"Thank you Emma. Now, let's go back to your place before Slendy wakes up." I said, jumping out the window, Emma climbed out after me, shut the window and jumped down into my arms. I set her down and we walked back to her cave, I braced myself for the worst night of my life with my ex. I almost gagged but, I caught myself before I did. "FUCK MY LIFE!"
