Time Spent Together

Waking Up and Places to Be

"Ugh.." I winced as I sat up from my position on the cold hard ground. I rubbed my head and stretched out my back. It felt, and sounded, like I had been sleeping for days. The air rushed through my spine and elbow joints, creating oddly satisfying popping noises. "Look, little princess is awake." I opened my eyes to be met with the gazes of seven men. Well, two of them were boys, and most of them had masks or other eyewear, but I had their gazes nonetheless. "What happened? Why did you leave me alone? How dare you leave me alone," I skipped over my usual drowsy, just-woke-up stage and went straight to the accusations. Gavin sighed and rolled his big green eyes. "We didn't mean to leave you. This black dot thing swallowed us." I nodded, "Yeah, that's what happened to me. The dot just kept stretching while I was mopping sooo...that happened."

Eyeless Jack snorted. He was leaning on the railing by an open wall window thing-y. Because I have no words. I looked around and saw the familiarity of a parking garage, only this parking garage didn't have many parked cars, and there was trash and other rotten newspaper everywhere. Jeff was sitting on one of the rusty looking cars by BEN, who looked like he didn't give a rat's ass about the situation. He was just boredly playing his game. I looked up and saw Laughing Jack hanging upside down from the beams in the ceiling. Why...? Hell, why am I even asking? He's LJ, for Jesus sake. Masky was across the lot, leaning on the wall opposite of where I was sitting. His arms were crossed over his beige colored jacket. I could just imagine him sneering under that feminine white mask of his. Toby and Gavin where the closest ones near me. Toby didn't look like he was having a good time, his knees were brought up to his chest, his arms on his knees, and in turn, his chin resting on his forearms. Every now and then, the boy's body would jerk, or Toby would make some odd or unnecessary noise, due to his tourettes syndrome.

"Where are we?" I asked softly, hoping only Gavin would be the only one to hear me. "I dunno. Everything is in Japanese, or Chinese, or Korean..I don't know. It's a bunch of symbols on pretty pink and blue digital billboards," Gavin shrugged. He leaned his back to a car behind us. "Huh? So the spot transported us to a different part of the world? Did the teleportation well start leaking again?" I asked, leaning on the man, inhaling deeply. I felt him shake his head. "No. When the well leaked, there was that goo everywhere. This was just a spot. On the floor." I exhaled. "Well, will we be able to get back to the mansion?"

"Do you see and wood-sy areas anywhere nearby?" Gavin asked sarcastically. I frowned. Then cringed as I started hearing things from the outside. Cars sounded like they were running nonstop, along with horn honking. I heard several people shouting and a gunshot or two in the distance. I gripped onto Gavin's flannel and tensed. I felt him tense as well. "O-okay..no. It sounds like a concrete jungle...are we somewhere in Japan? Or China? Or Korea?" I asked. Gavin shrugged. "I don't know, kiddo. We landed in the alley. We were there for several minutes, just in bewilderment, before you came barreling in through another black hole screaming like someone was ripping your body limb by limb. You landed on your head and passed out. We found this place, and carried you here. We waited several hours for you to wake up," Gavin said. I turned my body so I'd be laying my head in his lap. I looked up into his calm looking face. I could very clearly see the light dusting of freckles on his cheeks that made him look boyish, and the small thin scars on his chin and forehead from countless beatings from his drunken uncle when he was a child. I felt immediately saddened by the thoughts of Gavin's childhood, and his abusive girlfriend later in life. Then I started wondering why I had created him like that..?

Haunting flicked my forehead, to which I responded with a loud "ouch!" and rubbed the, probably reddening, spot on my forehead. "Quit thinking like that. I'm perfectly happy with who I am." Oh. I forgot Gavin could still probe my mind, even without my consent. Even when he wasn't tricking me into thinking I had a second personality. "Sorry.." I muttered.

"GOT IT!"

All of us turned toward BEN, wondering what he got. The glitch looked very pleased with himself, and could barely contain himself. What a flip from how he was acting earlier. Guess he has two sides like a coin. "What?" Masky barked, I could hear the sneer in his voice. It was like poison. "Okay, so I got bored of playing Spirit Tracks-"

"The Legend of Zelda game," I interrupted. BEN nodded. "Yeah, I can't believe it either, bit I got bored with it and decided I wanted to watch Netflix. More accurately, I wanted to watch Death Note. But guess what?" the glitch asked. BEN was bouncing up and down on the car hood. Jeff scooted away from the giddy blond. "Spit it o-out!" Toby yelled. Yeah, he definitely isn't happy.

"Buuut~" BEn sang, dragging out the word like a gossiping teenage girl would, "Death Note isn't on Netflix. The internet doesn't have any public record of the term Death Note." I stood up, eyes wide. "What? It's a popular anime, how is there absolutely no record of it? Seriously, no fanart of the Wammy boys or even Satan in disguise?" I asked. BEN chuckled, the look on his face was comical. He continued talking, "But then I leaked into police records and government files, and figured it out. I know where we are. In space and time." I gasped, "No way, you don't mean-"

"Oh, yeah. I mean it." BEN grinned proudly and I launched myself at him, wrapping my arms around his chest and giggling like a madwoman. He hugged me back and we both started squealing like the diehard fans we were.

The other men were utterly confused. The two younger kids were squealing as Masky turned to EJ. EJ turned to Jeff, who had a "help me please" look on his face since he was sitting right next to the giggling duo. Jeff turned to Toby. Toby turned to LJ, and finally, LJ turned to Gavin. The Haunting let out a heavy exhale. "Why me?" He thought to himself. The brunette whistled, a loud, high pitched sound that echoed through the Creepypasta's ears. "What?!" Mickey deadpanned, doing a complete 180 on her mood. She turned to the male and huffed, crossing her arms. But then breaking out into a grin and squealing. This kid could not contain her excitement and happiness.

"Why are you two acting like this? It's fucking annoying," LJ stated bluntly. Mickey looked up and glared at the cone nosed, monochrome clown. "Because," she started, whipping her blondish red hair to the side, only for it to go back back and cover her right blue eye, "we are in the Death Note-verse." Gavin paled, well more than usual. "You've got to be kidding me..."
