A Small Glitch

Charged

"Ann needs to charge," Anti stated as he walked into Dark's office, holding Annalise in his arms. Annalise was looking around with curiosity, trying to find the reason why she wasn't allowed in there.

"I-"

"No ands, ifs or buts." Anti prevented Dark from protesting. "She hallucinated last night and she needs to charge properly."

"Most children see the boogeyman in their closet," Dark said.

"She would have said 'monster' or something like that, she said 'closet man', like she saw a person." Anti sat Annalise on Dark's desk, took the laptop, turned it to face him and opened it, pressing several keys to log in.

"How I charge?" Annalise asked.

"Can't we just buy her some batteries or something and let her-"

"Dark." Anti's face made Dark stop. The virus put his hands on Dark's shoulders. "I promise that everything will be fine. We'll stay in the desktop background. Annalise doesn't know how to surf, she won't be able to go anywhere." Dark didn't respond. "Darky." Anti sang, lowering his hand to Dark's thighs and shimming a little. "Darky you know you can trust me. Darky-baby."

"You can stop that." Dark sighed. "Fine. Go charge. But do not leave the desktop background."

"Yes, sir." Anti kissed the tip of Dark's nose. "Alright, Ann, ready to go on a trip?"

"Where we go?" Annalise asked.

"You'll see." Anti took Annalise's hand and pressed his other against the laptop screen. Dark watched as Anti became a cloud of green pixels and Annalise's were orange. The two went into the laptop and Dark turned the laptop so he could see the screen properly.

"Hi, papa!" Annalise greeted with a giggle, her voice a little distorted through the speakers.

"See, told you." Anti said. "Let's go swimming." He said to Annalise before jumping up, floating to the center of the image. Annalise jumped as well and went Anti, giggling as Anti took her hands and they spun around. Dark found himself smiling while his husband and daughter was laughing and spinning around, their bodies glowing of either green or orange.

"Hey, Dark. Could you open Paint?" Anti asked.

"Of course." Dark clicked the icon and a small window opened up. Anti held Annalise while he swam to the top of the window, he placed his feet on it before doing a little hop and going in. Dark made the window larger.

"Wanna finger paint?" Anti asked Annalise as he touched the pencil icon.

"I make butterfly." Annalise said and started drawing.

"This should keep her busy for a while." Anti sat down in the corner of the window. "I love how relaxing it is to charge." Anti hummed as he got comfortable.

"Wilford's calling." Dark said and stepped out of the room.

"No stress, no worries, just energy." Anti mumbled, his eyes growing heavy. "No..." Anti starting dozing off. Annalise finished her butterfly and something caught the corner of her eye, a blue ladybug flew across the screen and went into the Chrome browser icon.

"Ladybug." Annalise walked to the front of the window. She went down to her knees and crawled out, slowly falling to the toolbar.

"Huh?" Anti jerked up, waking back up. "I'm not asleep." Anti blinked and saw that Annalise was gone. "Fuck!" He cursed seeing Annalise walking along the toolbar. "Ann!"

"Annalise!" Dark had returned and saw Annalise jump into the Chrome icon. "Anti!"

"I'm going!" Anti leaped out of the pain window and dove after his daughter. Anti went as he could through the internet's current following the orange pixels that were coming off of Annalise as she flew down.
