Finally adding in some other egos, bc I feel like it but don't want to write my actual book rn. This one isn't extreme and is sort of a follow up to the last one, but not really. They're just finally... figuring out the truth, we'll say.

They created a circle around him so he couldn't escape and shouted foul curses toward him. They thought they were getting to him; how cute. 

Anti stood in the middle of the circle with his arms crossed, head down, and eyes closed. A smirk played on his face. "You all just don't get it, do you." It wasn't a question, but the others answered with more curses anyway, and Anti finally lifted his head.

"What? What are we not getting?! You put Jack in a fucking coma!"  Chase got louder and louder and started to break the circle, but Schneep pulled him back by his wrist, giving a sad look.

"No, I killed him. Blame doc over there for... preserving him. What I did, was give us freedom."

"Shut up about freedom! We have more work to do than ever before because of you!"

Anti tilted his head and grinned big. "You're blaming me? What did I just tell you! 'Good doctor' Schneeplestein is the one to blame for even attempting to save him."

Chase looked back and forth between the rest before he landed on Schneep and turned new anger on Anti.

Quietly, a threatening edge to his voice, he gave it to Anti. "You're lucky he was able to save him at all or we'd all be dead, you fuck."

Anti uncrossed his arms and put a hand under his chin, mocking the divorced father with a sly, "Ooh, I'm so scared."

"You should be." Jackieboy and Marvin said in unison. They looked at each other before Jackie stepped forward. "It's us against you, Anti. Fix what you've done or so help us-"

Anti threw his arms to his sides and growled out, "So you just don't want to believe me. You'll just keep blaming me no matter what I say! Doc knows what he did; why do you think he's been so quiet since it happened?"

All eyes turned to Schneep. He let go of Chase's arm and cowered out of the circle, head down. Chase pulled him back, making him squeak from the sudden pressure. "He would have told us," Chase said as he ignored Schneep's attempt to pull away. "Right, Schneep? You wouldn't hurt Jack!"

The doctor gulped as he pried Chase's tight grip off him and turned away from the group. "I-it was an accident."

Anti's expression went smug and he placed his hands on his hips. "That's not a no."

"Schneep, why didn't you tell us?" Jackieboy's voice was soft, but stern as he tried to control his anger. His fists rapidly clenched by his sides.

"I knew how... how you'd react. I promise I didn't mean to!" Marvin reached for the crying, shaking doctor, but Schneep flailed away as soon as he was touched. He landed on the floor with a thud and Anti stepped out of the circle.

He stretched. "Well, as much as I love revealing people for the true villains they are, I think I'm gonna go bother Jack in his dreams some more. Have fun settling down two sick-in-the-head people tonight!" Anti cackled as he shot away.

Uhh, oof? Okay, I know these weren't much but like, it really did help to write again. If I have anymore in me, you'll know, but I think these were enough to calm me down over the past couple days so idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
