"W-wake u-up!" Toby says, pushing me off the bed. Whining, I drag myself up. Halfheartedly, I meander to the bathroom. Taking a short, very hot shower and brushing my hair, I dress and walk out to find Smile.

Crouching down I bury my face in his neck and purr slightly. Pulling back I scratch behind his ears. He wags his tail and his tongue rolls out of his mouth. Laughing, I start walking, but I'm interrupted when Smile runs at me. I jump, and he takes the moment to flip me onto his back with his snout.

Staring at the dog, I just laugh and look around as we go down numerous halls. Turning a corner, Smile starts to run.

Stairs.

Gripping onto his fur I press myself onto his back as he jumps past all of the stairs. He lands safely, and I look up, my tail is poofed and my ears are slightly back. Laughing, my tail returns to normal and my ears perk forward.

I smell something good.

Smile wanders into the kitchen, and Jeff spits out whatever he was drinking. He stands up, angry.

"Smile! God damnit! Where were y-" he stops, noticing me. His face goes from anger, to disbelief, to sadness, and back to anger.

"Traitor." He mutters. He walks by me, and pushes me off Smile. Smile's ears lower, and instead of following Jeff, he walks over to me and sniffs to see if I'm alright, which I am. I pet behind his ears,comforting him.

Ben walks in. "Who pissed in his breakfast?" He sees I'm the only one here, with Smile.

"Smile, you like her better then Jeff, huh?" Smile barks, loudly. It doesn't bother my ears, as it isn't high. I smile, leaping onto Smile I nip at his ear. My tail slightly swishes in the air. He barks again, and runs outside, me still on his back.

We begin to rough house again, and we keep nipping at each others ears. We both stop, because we heard something in the woods. Smile was currently standing above me, as he was about to nip at me ears.

Snap.

A branch broke. Smile runs at the sound, and I follow. Hearing him snarl, I retreat slowly, looking around. I didn't notice how far into the forest we were.

A slight tug on my ear makes me slightly jump. Turning, I see none other than Jeff.

"What are you doing out here?" He asks nonchalantly. I can hear the slightest worry in his tone.

"Smile heard something, so did I." I answer. Hearing Smile attack, I leap up a tree like my cat used to, and jump off, spotting him far away. Running, Jeff follows me. My tail swishes in the air and my ears are perked forward.

Smile is attacking some weird humanoid...thing. the skin is ghastly pale, and it had long arms with giant claws at the end. Jeff grabs my arm, his smile fighting to stay smiling.

"Don't, that's the Rake."

"So hungry...so cold..!" The thing rasps, swiping at Smile. Ignoring Jeff, I jump on the things back and sink my teeth into its neck. It squeals, and Smile jumps at him and bites his stomach. The Rake reaches back and swipes at me, scratching my whole back. I feel the blood pour down my back and onto the ground.

Laughter bubbles up from my chest.

Tearing the flesh away from his neck, I laugh insanely.

I start humming the song "light em up, girl on fire remix"

(Play song)

Smiling, I laugh insanely, before starting to sing, Jeff looks surprised, as Smile. Smile backs away, knowing how crazy I will become. Jeff follows suit.

Be careful making wishes in the da-da-da-dark...

I swipe my claws at his eyes, blinding him. He screams in pain. As if in a trance, I, instead of dodging, dance out of reach. Laughing again, the Rake hears me.

Cant be sure when they've hit their ma-ma-mark...

I smile widely.

And besides in the mean-mean time in just dreaming of tearing you apart...

I crawl up his chest, digging my claws into his chest and stomach. Blood coats me, and I lick my lips, tasting the bitterness.

He screams, falling on his back. His claw goes through my stomach. Blood pools into the surrounding forest floor. I cough up blood.

The pain is remote, like at the end of a tunnel. Laughing, I bite down on his wrist, and bite his hand off. Blood spurts out, coating my once black hair,.turning it an angry maroon color.

This girl is on fire!

This girl is on fire!

Light em up up up, light em up up up, light em up up up

This girl is on fire, in the dark, dark...

I scream the lyrics, still managing to sing it.

I hear voices in my head speaking to me.

Kill it slowly! They scream.

Pulling the claws out of my stomach, blood gushes onto the ground.

Stabbing his own claw into his stomach, I drag it up. His other claw swipes at me, and I tear off every claw. The Rake screams shrilly, my ears fall back against my head, in pain. I scream too, covering my ears my once blue eyes turn red.

'Oh shit.' I hear someone say.

I'm just dreamin' of tearing you apart...

I scream the words, digging my hands into his chest. I keep screaming the words, even louder than the Rake.

I hear more voices, barely.

'Wow, remind me to never let her sing around me.'

Digging my claws deeper, I touch his heart. Carefully, I pull it out and shove it into his mouth forcefully. The Rakes body convulses, twitching. I slit open his stomach and tear out all of his intestines and organs.

I hear someone say 'Oh! A kidney!'

This girl is on fire...in the dark,dark....

This girl is on fire!

Yeah yeah yeah yeahahhh..

Cuz my songs know what you did in the dark...

Finishing the song, I fall over, seeing everyone watching. Smile whimpers and rushes towards me as I close my eyes.

Child, do not sleep. Do. Not. Sleep! Slender says in my mind, worry evident.

I feel myself being moved. The pain hits me full blown and I scream out in pain. Tears fall onto the ground and i hear so many voices. They drown my thoughts.

"(Y/n)!"

"Oh my god, is she okay?"

"(Y/n)! Don't sleep"

"(Y/n)!"

Closing my eyes, I fight against the sleep. My body is set on something soft and I cough up blood as it runs down my face. Something slips into my hand and squeezes it gently. Someone wipes the blood off, and I hear someone whisper something, as the blackness wins the mental fight.

"Please don't go, we need you."

·°*·°*·°*

Opening my eyes, I see everyone sitting in chairs or standing tensely. Even Slender.

I make a small whimpering sound, and Toby jumps up.

"G-guys! (Y-y/n!)" He yeels. In seconds, everyone is surrounding me.

Slender pushes them all away, and I feel thankful.

Sleep, child.

With that, my eyes close once more.
