(This is sorta a filler chapter to keep the story moving along)

I gasped and stood. He shook his head and muttered something to himself before looking over at me with his stupid big brown eyes.

"Don't be afraid..." He calmed standing slowly, I took a step back from him "I mean... he's inside of me... trying to tell me what to do... I can usually fight it though..."

"What are you talking about?" I scoffed taking another step back from where I was "Blurryface wasn't a person."

"It was a machine or an AI designed to make music... I know... and when it went wrong.... Someone had to take it down..."

"It was you! You destroyed Blurryface!" I exclaimed

"Not exactly..." He replied quietly "I removed it from the form it was and implanted it in my brain. It has certain triggers or places, make him stronger... he can get so loud."

I looked at him. What on earth? This was insane. I took a step towards him and cocked my head. He looked at me, like he was waiting for me to scream or call for help.

"That's why you were with D... he was protecting you." I said finally. He smiled in relief.

"Yeah... Josh found me by myself... I was bad, he was so loud..." Tyler winced remembering "He took be back to the Doctor and he helped me cope."

"That's..." I struggle to find the right word "Amazing, you're so brave..."

"Well, there must be something to you too... or you wouldn't be so important..." He pointed out.

I nodded and shrugged "Like I said I don't know why they do what they do..." I look out at the desert again. "I sometimes with I was never involved in this... that I didn't have to go through this pain"

Tyler cocked his head "But then what?"

"Then I realize that if I'm not going to do this who is? The people of BLI are brainwashed into thinking music is a fault. That creativity is wrong, I can't live knowing that they don't even know what it is. They don't know what it's like to feel anything other than what they are forced to feel. It's what they deserve and I'm going to give it to them. Even if it kills me." I told him firmly.

"Now that is brave." Tyler told me "I'm nothing compared to you. I'm just a scared little boy."

I scoffed "You inherited the Blurryface, that's a little more than a scared little boy." He blushed and shook his head, like he didn't believe me "No really! Like that's amazing that you would do that."

He smirked at me and twitched "He's so strong here. It's like he's trying to rip himself out of my head."

I bite my lip and look around "Maybe we should go someplace else."

"No. This is where D and Fun Ghoul will meet us... I can live until tomorrow." He said firmly. Then there was silence. And sometimes quiet is violent. The sun had set and the moon began to rise. The moon illuminated the sky in an eerie veil of white. It glowed like a signal of truce for the night. BLI had this rule where after the sun set, no one was allowed out, not even Korse and his men, so they were probably gone now.

"It's so peaceful..." I murmured "It's like there is not harm in this world...."

"It's an illusion, everything about the night is an illusion. The light is just a reflection, the peace is causes is just a fake, and nothing is as it seems in the dark. It becomes another creature of darkness." Tyler started bitterly "I hate night, nothing is real."

This wasn't anything like the Tyler I met. It was like he was two completely different people, which was somewhat true. I guess the Blurryface gets stronger at night. I couldn't help but think about what he said. It was true, the night wasn't actually the night. That's just what we called it to separate when we sleep and when we are awake. It's not real. Well that ruined the mood.

"But it doesn't stop the beauty from being real..." He finished after a few minutes. He reminded me of Jet Star. I mean not really the looks but how he acts. He is so much more than just a face that you know, you just have to know to learn more. Jet Star didn't open up to me until I had been with them for a good few months then he told me things I could never even thought of and it was amazing. He was fascinating and deep. He would tell me that he hid all his thoughts in his hair and that's why it was so fluffy. But Tyler, he didn't have anywhere to hide his thoughts. Just his brain and in his brain was Blurryface. He had nowhere to hide his thoughts. God, he must have a migraine all the time.

"the sun will rise and we will try again..." Tyler started to sing " Ooooooooo"

His voice was soft and rough at the same time. It was like driving in the car and the wind blowing through your hair. That feeling when someone hugs you after you haven't seen them in a while. It felt like... home.

"Stay Alive, Stay Alive, for me."

Sorry it's so short! It's just a filler, next one will be longer!!!
