Shy boy (ticci Toby x Ben Drowned)

How long?

|Toby's PoV|

"Alright alright!" I chuckle once again picking Sally up lifting her to the highest branch I could, Tim was lounging around while Hoodie seemed to be focused on a bird or somethin, daydreamer.

"It's too fuckin hot!" Tim groaned resting against the tree me and Sally were currently climbing, yup I'm sure I've heart him say that at least six times in the past hour.

"I'll tell the sun off later t-Tim" I chuckle glancing up at Sally who, was now at a much higher point then I was.

"Oh fuck you Rogers!" He yelled looking up at me.

"Anyone else seeing something unusual..." Hoodie mumbled catching both mine and Tims attention.

"Oooo maybe it's Tims sex life- rare, horrible and no witnesses to be able to explain the situation" I look up at Sally grinning as she spoke, little damn rebel.

"You may be a girl but I will hit you." Tim snarled standing up.

"I'm...serious." Hoodie continued, ah shit if he's serious about it then it's no squirrel or Tims sex life.

"Maybe it's...what's his name...little elf dude come back to murder you~" Tim teased as I jumped down catching Sally as she followed.

"Pfft he ain't coming back. It's been half a year man he's probably hiding in a corner-r" I scowled rolling my eyes, I'll admit it was boring without someone to look after, but at least I had my normal routine back.

"Shit!" Out of instinct to hoodies panicked tone we all ducked down, not a second layer did some kind of a sword fly over my head and hit the tree, I stared at the weapon, everything went silent, no sound, only the disturbed birds and wing rustling the leaves.

"Who the fück-" Tim growled "alright Jeff that isn't fucking funny!" He stood up and with a split second passing he froze a thin red line that oozed blood forming on the side of his neck followed by allot more in other places, then, he was on the floor with someone stepping on his throat, I shot forward and swung at the person before he just...disappeared.

I looked back at the sword and found it missing.

"Everyone. Inside. Now." I order pulling Tim up who picked Sally up walking inside, hoodie stopped next to me.

"Who do you think that was.." he asked "too fast to be Ben" I glanced at him and shrugged the both of us walking inside, upon stepping inside I felt a slight presence behind me, turning around I saw a flash of red black and green before just the outside world stared back.

"Toby?" Hoodie mumbled pulling me inside "come on we'll talk about this later." Nodding slowly I walked inside and sat down on the couch staring at the wall while the troublesome trio over there were discussing a next activity as well as cleaning up the thin unworrying cuts on Tim.

I leaned my head back and stared at the ceiling, great just as I was forgetting about one burden another damn one comes along. This person was, as hoodie had said, too fast for Ben, but the height of a child, couldn't have been Sally because she was with us, and as for the sword I don't know anyone who owned a sword.

"Toby"

I opened my eyes and looked around "did someone just call me?" I ask the three, getting no in response from all of them I stood up and looked out of the window, nothing.

"Up here"

I looked up a little and found myself staring at the same figure sat on the highest branch in the closest tree their form hidden well within the leaves.

"You hurt me Toby"

I tilted my head in confusion, hurt? I hadn't hurt anyone that I was planning on keeping alive.

"You're numb, but not completely, I can get into your head and hurt you"

I narrowed my eyes, responding wasn't an option, telepathy, he wasn't human clearly.

"Toby!" I looked over at Sally who stood in front of me "why're you crying?" I raised my hand to my face pulling it away and finding tears on my hand, crying?

"Why are you crying? You're numb aren't you? You don't feel anything. Just like you don't feel for me,"

"I'll be in my room, stay out," I sped walked to my room ignoring the questions.

"Let the game begin."

"Leave me alone" I growl.

"Loneliness will crush you more then you know. Maybe..." there was a dark echoing chuckle "I'll use that...for now, you've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?"

That's when I noticed the hovering figure stood by the door.
