I watched as Remus cleaned Virgil's room, it was a mess and he had nothing better to do. As I watch I feel Thomas summon me, "Thomasss is summoning me, be back soon." I say sinking out.

I rise up in Thomas' living room, in Virgil's spot. I look around, Patton was standing in his spot, Thomas had a nervous expression. "Yesss?" I hiss out, still worried about Virgil. "So, them pills have been doing more damage than Virgil was letting on?" He asks, knowing the answer. "Yeah, he passsed out a few daysss ago and hasssn't woken up sssince, he jusst lookss like he iss in pain." I say, he looks like he wants to question the hissing, "I hisss when I'm worried, like a ssstutter." I say, he nods "why did he lie to me about it?" He asks "he was upset and probably sad, he probably thought he deserved the pain." Patton says close to tears, I sigh and look back to Thomas. He was breathing heavily and his eyes were darting around the room, he looked terrified. Patton seemed to notice to, "Kiddo?" Patton Asked taking a step forward. Thomas flinched, me and Patton look at each other. "Thomas?" He asked again "I'm sorry, don't hurt me!" He shouts crouching down and covering his head, "I'm not going to hurt you kiddo. Come here." Patton gave him a warm smile as Thomas looked up, "a-are you s-s-sure?" He asks uncurling slightly, "of course. Why would I?" He asks as Thomas is slowly brought into a hug. "I don't know what happened, but now I feel like everyone wants to hurt me and I just feel loads of anxiety and I feel-" I cut him off, "paranoid." Thomas visibly flinches and I mutter a 'sorry'. I look at Patton who was looking at me, "Virgil." We say in unison, I sink out, leaving Thomas to Patton.

I rise up in the bedroom and instantly hear screaming, I look around trying to find the source, in the corner I see Virgil curled up, the spider legs acting like a shield.

Remus comes into the room with Logan on his tail, "what happened?" I ask desperately to Remus, who looked like he was close to tears. "I don't know, he just woke up, looked at me and started screaming at me saying stuff like-" he gets cut off, "GET OUT!!" Virgil's distorted voice screamed, I look at Logan who was going towards Virgil.

Logan reaches down to the multiple legs, doing his best to move them. In return he got an animalistic hiss off of Virgil, making him pull back. "I SAID GET OUT!!!" He screamed again, he looked terrified. His breathing was fast and he was shaking, "I don't know what to do, I've never experienced Virgil's panic attacks being this bad." Logan says adjusting his glasses, "well yeah, he isn't having an anxiety induced panic attack." I say, Remus nodding along and Logan looking confused. At this point, Roman was in the door way, I hiss glaring at him, catching Logan's attention.

Roman rushed over to Virgil, sliding beside him. "I-I'm so so so sorry." He says not noticing the spider legs, "DONT HURT ME. GET OUT! GET OUT! GET OUT! YOU ALL WANT TO HURT ME, YOU WANT ME TO LET MY GUARD DOWN SO YOU CAN HURT ME, BUT I WONT LET YOU!!" He screams out again.

Roman jumped up when one of the legs went out to strike him. "I'm not trying to hurt you. I'm trying to apologise, but you're just as arrogant and stubborn as always." Roman says, Virgil seemed to cry out in anguish. I glare at Roman "will you sshut up for two sseconds in your life, you're not making anything any better!" I shout causing Roman to shut up. "If it wasn't obviouss, he issn't anxiety anymore iss he." I say blocking out Virgil's screams and please for us to leave, "he'ss paranoia, and who'ss fault iss that?" I ask, "yourss." I say pointing to Roman, "how is this my fault?" He asks, confused "you got Thomass to take anxiety pillss, and while Thomass took them it slowly killed Anxiety but in the processs brought back paranoia." I say gesturing to Virgil on the floor, we all end in glaring at Roman, "now I recommend, you go help Patton with Thomass who isn't taking the change ssso well." I say watching them both sink out. "Remuss, can you go sort out Virgil'ss room back at ourss. He won't survive here." I say, Remus saluted before sinking out.
