I went quiet after Jeremy asked. I brushed it off and fell asleep. In the morning, I didn't feel Jeremy next to me and I thought the worst. There was a trail of miscellaneous blood splatters on the ground. I sprinted out of the room, following the blood and found Jeremy laying on the ground. Jake was yelling at him.
"Just because it was justified The Squip killed Rich doesn't mean you're off the hook!" I stepped into the room and Jake had fear in his eyes.
"M-Michael I thought you were sleeping." Jake tried.
"What did I say?" Jake went quiet. I walked closer to him and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt.
"WHAT DID I SAY?" I repeated.
"N-not to mess with Jeremy." He managed.
"Then what the fuck are you doing?" Jake stepped off and the girls emerged through the kitchen door.
"Jeremy! Are you okay?! You should be in bed." Christine ran over to him to help him up.
"I was dragged here. Jake..he um.." Everyone looked at him.
"Jake we went over this." Chloe said.
"What? You two talked?" Brooke asked. Christine propped Jeremy on her shoulder and he limped over to me. He leaned on me and I pressed a kiss to his temple.
"Hey g-guys. What's up?" Evan and Connor came in, flanked by Zoe. I looked at the bruise that formed on his neck. I felt so bad.
"Nothing Ev. We just had a disagreement me and Jake." Jeremy lied.
"Good we have everyone here. Michael." I flinched.
"The Squip said something to you before leaving." I felt the anxiety fill me.
"I-I don't know what you mean?" She rolled her eyes.
"Don't bullshit us Mell." Brooke stepped up.
"Chloe please. He's been through enough." Chloe pushed her back.
"No. He's fine. Tell us." I wanted to avoid the question completely.
"I don't know if I can."
'No no Mell. I'm sure they'd love to know.'
The Squip was taunting. Jake tapped his foot and stared bullets into him.
"Cap, you can trust us." Christine muttered. Connor and Evan stood together a little father from the group and Evan's neck glowed violet.
"Mell!" Chloe barked.
"Fine! The only way to destroy The Squip is to destroy the main source and where it was made, I wanted so bad to leave this out but it's everything, "and the creator..." Jake was mad now.
"THAT'S ALL?!" His face turned red.
"Jake calm down." Connor threatened.
"Shut up! SHUT UP! MELL YOU RUINED OUR LIVES AND NOW YOU'RE GONNA FIND A WAY AND IF YOU DON'T, I'LL KILL YOU MYSELF!" Jeremy ran at Jake.
"FUCK OFF MY BOYFRIEND!" Jeremy fell onto Jake. Jake brushed Jeremy off as if he was a fly.
"STOP!" Zoe screamed.
"So she speaks." Chloe said sarcastically.
"I hope you know this is what 'he' wants. We need to find a way to destroy this overlord. Michael knows how to then we're set." Connor stepped forward.
"Hate to be the debby downer, but how are we gonna find the creator?" I tensed.
"And also," I wanted Connor to shut up, "how are we gonna find the source? We're pathetic without the creator either way." Jeremy tried standing and I picked him up. Everyone's eyes were on me.
"I know. I'm just gonna back up to the doors. Christine hold Jer." She did as told.
"I'm going to tell you this and I don't want anyone to follow me. Don't try to protest." The Squip appeared and froze everyone where they stood.
"Go ahead Mell. I'm sure they'll love to hear it." I took a shaky breath.
"I created The Squip. I programmed him and made him just so that me and Jeremy could fit in with the rest of you. I know you all are mad at me and I understand if you hate me. But don't worry, I'm going to destroy him. Even if it means my life." Jeremy's eyes spilled tears and I opened the doors.
"I love you Jer. Bye." I turned and ran out the door. The Squip unfroze everyone and disappeared with a slam of doors. I didn't stop running. I heard The Squip laughing in my head. Tears spilled onto my cold cheeks and I pushed through squipped.
"I will destroy you!" I screamed.
'I will wait for you. Just have your battle face on.' The Squip laughed maniacally like he did when this all happened. The only thing on my mind was Jeremy. I left him to the mercy of the group. But the only way to destroy The Squip was to destroy me. If I have to die to stop the misery of the entire world, it's worth it. I felt as though I could hear the sobs of Jeremy and the screams of anger from Jake. I imagine the quiet graveyard in the back of the warehouse.
'Soon that'll be your last lying place.' The Squip said with a chuckle.
"I'll defeat you." The Squip scoffed.
'Destroy me, destroy yourself Mell.' I hardened my expression.
"I'm ready to pay that price."
I'm sorry Jeremy...
