IMPORTANT PLEASE READ: Hey everyone! I updated a little bit of the last chapter, "Revenge", but it is relevent to this chapter. So I would advise that you go back and read the last chapter. I only updated the Killing Joseph section so you can skip the killing parents bit. And again, apologies for any spelling errors

*Jeffs POV*

*Dream*

I looked around but there was nothing there. Blank white walls stared back at me. As I looked around, I spotted a glass of water sitting next to me on a white shelf. Everything is white! I look down at myself, I am wearing a white night gown. Sort of like the ones you get in hospitals. I hate hospitals! This room reminds me of the room where people do tests and experiments on things. I begin to feel uneasy The room itself is a decent size but the lack of anything in it makes me feel claustraphobic. I have the sudden urge to get out of here. I rush over to the, also white, door and bash my fists loudly against it.

"Someone get me out of here!" I cry but no-body answers. I hit the door harder and harder until my fists bleed.

"This place is driving me crazy! Please let me out!!!" I sob, tears streaming down my face. Wait I'm crying?! I never cry! I try to stop myself crying but to no avail. Tears contiue to flow freely from my eyes and down to my chin. I walk over to the corner of the room, sit down and begin hugging my knees. This is not like me, this is not like me at all! Why am I acting like this!?

"You were already insane before you got here." A voice said from infront of me. I look up and Joseph was standing there in a white hospital gown, similar to mine except his was covered in blood. But how can he be here? I killed him a few days ago!

"J-Joseph?" I stutter. A small smile forms apon his face. He looks down at me with cold, unforgiving eyes.

"The very same!" He mocked. Hey, isn't that what I said to him on the night of his death?

"How are you here? I killed you!" I asked. The smile, on his lips,  faded and was replaced with a look contorted by rage.

"YOU KILLED ME AND MY PARENTS! NOW YOU SHALL FEEL MY PAIN, JEFF!" He screamed. Slowly, I saw him take a knife out of his pocket. Uh oh, that's not good. He grinned manically at me. What the fuck, he's gone insane!!!  I can only guess, by the way he started laughing, that my face must have been priceless.

"Stay away from me, you psycho!" I cried. Oh great, now I'm begging! I never normally do this! What the hell is wrong with me! I'm acting like... like Joseph. I'm acting the way he did before I killed him! I didn't see what he did next but I felt a sharp pain in my leg. I looked down, blood was pouring out a deep gash on my leg. Judging by the shape, I'd say Joseph just slashed the knife down my leg. My blood continues to spill all over the floor. I am slightly alarmed at how much there is. So, I rip the sleve off my night gown and wrap it around the wound, holding it in place with the tightest knot I can muster. I need to cut off the blood flow to my leg. Well, at least I'm smarter than Joseph. When I did this to him, he never tried to stop the blood by squeezing his leg. He did not seem to like my smart move, for he then went and cut both my arms. Now I cannot stop the blood flow, I will die of blood-loss. My head starts to spin, I'm getting dizzy. Everything is blurred and I can't hear properly. I can just make up the sound of Joseph laughing before my vision begins to fail.

"Go to sleep" Joseph whispered. Hey! That's what I say! Is he mocking me?! I feel something hot slip down my cheek, it feels... wet?! Oh great I'm crying again!  A sudden wave of helplessness washes over me. I have just realized something... I don't wanna die!!!

*Reality*

*Jeffs POV*

I woke up screaming. That dream was so real! I actually felt everything Joseph felt! All the fear, anger. self-pity that he was feeling, I felt too. Why am I suddenly acting like this now? I murdered him several days ago! Cold sweat rolls down the side of my face. I don't like this, I don't like this at all! I have never re-acted like this after a kill. Just then my bedroom door bursts open and my best friend, Ben Drowned, runs in.

"Jeff?! What happened?! What's wrong?!" He asks.  His hair is all messed up and he is still him his pj's.

"N-nothing." I reply. He gives me a weird look, I can tell he doesn't believe me.  Ben sighs and folds his arms.

"Jeff, don't stand here and try to convince me nothings wrong, you started screaming!" Ben protested.  I can't tell him the truth, he'll think I've lost my edge! He might even send me back to the humans! Even though I am human, I don't wanna go back there! I like it here with Ben, Slendy, Jack and the rest of the gang!

"I, er,  just saw a spider so I screamed that's all." I lie. I hate lying to him, I really do, but it's the only way. He bursts out laughing.

"Jeff the Killer, afraid of a spider?!" He said loudly. I pretend to be embarrased.

"Shhs! No need to tell everyone! And besides, it was a huge spider!" I say frantically. To make my act more convincing, I make myself go red. He continues chortling and I roll my eyes at him. He sees my annoyance and tries to surpress his laughter.

"Ok man, I won't tell anyone about this." He says, still wearing a huge grin on his face.

"Whatever. But if you do, I swear I will beat the crap outta you!" I say. I know I could easily beat him in a fight!

"Sure, sure." He says sarcastically. "I'm gonna go back to bed now, night Jeff." He walks out the door.

"Night." I call after him. Hmm, I wonder what the time is? I glance over at the clock on me bedside table. The numbers read, 4:28 am. Ah, what the heck, I may as well go back to sleep. I lay my head against my pillow and listen to the clock ticking. Eventually, I drift into a dreamless slumber.
