Not Easy Being Me: part 17

Anti hissed in pain, watching as Marvin's hands hover over a giant gash that was on his side, Marvin's hands glowing white as the green skin on the edge of the wound started to close. He already got the minor cuts and bruises out of the way, healing them within minutes, but this one was taking forever, and it didn't stop the pain.

Marvin watched as the glitch squint his eyes shut, hissing from the pain, but the was too focused on healing the wound to worry about his comfort... like he'd ever deserve it. "So you were attacked by this glass demon, who's asking for Dark?"

"Yes." Anti breathed, trying to ignore the pain, but it was rather difficult.

"And what did you say to it?" Marvin questioned as he stopped for a moment pulling out a small purple vile and popping the cork open with his mouth.

"I tried to tell it nothing but the bastard managed to pull the answers out by threatening me- FUCK!" Anti's voice boomed when Marvin poured the vile onto the wound, a burning sensation spreading through it. "WHAT THE FUCK MARV!?"

"It'll sting," Marvin answered as he threw the vile away.

"NO SHIT!?"

"I could just let it get an infection." Marvin snapped, before rubbing his hands together, his hands glowing again as he covered them over the wound once more. "Besides, consider it payback for your stunt you pulled on Wilford and Dark." He glared up at Anti watching as he cast his eyes to the ground in defeat, a smug frown laid in his glitch features. "And what did it pry out of you?"

"It... just wanted to know where Dark was... so I told it that he switched bodies with Wilford." He squints his eyes like he was trying to think. "It sounded like it knew Dark... But it didn't exactly talk about it and Dark being old pals."

"And what did it say about Wilford? Does it know him too?" Marvin questioned, looking up at the glitch for a second before looking down at the wound.

"It... didn't know who he was... and it seems like it doesn't want to know who he is considering that it said he'll just have to kill Wilford."

Marvin froze, slowly looking up at Anti. "It what?"

Anti looked up at the magician. "I-It wants to kill Wilford." his head then fell back into the pillow as he stared at the ceiling, trying to recall all that occurred. "It... It said something about... Wilford being in its body."

Marvin looked down at the ground, thinking over what Anti had just told him. There was a glass demon running around in the upside down? Sure there were all kinds of demons there but Marvin never heard of demons made of glass in there. And what did it mean that Wilford was in its body? The whole thing was just confusing, however, he did know there was a big threat coming their way, and he doesn't know why. He decided to table it for now, looking over at the glitch, finally ceiling the big gash in his side. His hands finally stopped glowing as he looked to the side, listening as Anti sighed in relief, the pain finally subsiding. "Why did you tell me all of this?"

Anti opened his eyes, looking up at Marvin, who still had his eyes cast to the ground. "What?"

"Why did you tell me all of this?" Marvin looked back at Anti. "You could have just kept it from me, and let that thing come but you didn't... Why?"

Anti sat up, looking at him with an offended look in his features. "You kidding me?" he began, pointing at himself. "You think I'd let that thing come here as slaughter every one of you?"

"Why wouldn't you? You don't like any of us-."

"But I don't hate you all enough to let you die!" Anti barked loudly.
