Roman's pov

Dear journal,

I wake up in my room with a note and a plate of food next to me.

Note to self: give Patton handwriting lesson

I quickly get dressed, eat, and go downstairs. I look at the couch but V isn't there. Did he mean the downstairs couch? I look in the main living room but Virgil isn't there. There is a note on the table next to a plate of half eaten food

He's going to find depression?!

"V!! THIS ISN'T FUNNY COME OUT" I wait a minute for a response but none come. I take Virgil's advice and take a deep breath. Then I teleport to where Patton and Logan work during the day.

"DAD? LOGAN?" I yell out. They both come running from their respective offices. A couple of other sides peek their heads out but then return to their own work.

"Roman? What is the matter, shouldn't you be home now" Logan says while pushing up his glasses.

"V left" I say as I shove half of the note into Patton's hands. He quickly reads it over and gasps. He shows the note to mom Logan.

"Both of you can calm down, I know exactly where V is." Patton and I look at Logan, our eyes wide.

"What do you mean Logie" a couple of other sides are starting to get curious and watch us. Logan gives them a look then teleports all of us back to the house. We walk into the house and Logan summons a cliche pin bored, red string and all.

"Virgil and I have been tracking Depression for the past year, last week we heard a rumor he was in a cave, previously home to a dragon witch, on the south side of Thomas' mind"

"You didn't think to tell us that?!" Patton yells at him. He takes a deep breath and quickly composes himself.

"V didn't want anybody to know" Logan retaliates.

"Logan, Patton both of you need to hold off this old married couple routine, what are we gonna do about Virgil?" I say, annoyed at their bickering.

"Well, I'd imagine we go and rescue him" Logan says while pushing his glasses up.

"Great, here we go again"

Virgil's pov

Dear Journal,

I teleport from the random forest I ended up in straight to where we think Depression is staying. I walk into the cave, there is a fire going in the middle of the cave. Someone is here. I think to myself. Hello

"DEE?" I call out, I feel a gust of wind behind me and I snap my head to it. I don't see anything so I turn my head back around to face to back of the cave. I feel a hand go over my mouth, and an arm slink around my waist. HELLO

"What do you want?" The voice says. I judo flip the side over my head(Roman has been teaching me self defense)and see who it is, Dee? V, V, V, V

"What the hell virgil?!" He yells.

"Sorry!" I say as I help him up. I may hate the guy but if I expect him to help me with my...issue I need to play nice.

"Why are you here?"

"I need your help," I say. He chuckles.

"You killed Dolin, what makes you think I want to help you?" Dee's hands start to glow his dark black color.

"Just hear me out, you have something to gain from this so you might want to consider helping"

"Just spit it out dork" He summons a chair, sits down in it and crosses his arms like a child.

"I want you to split me and Paranoia" HELLLLLOOOOOOOO, answer me or I'll force a switch 'you don't have enough power to switch right now' Dee chuckles.

"Why would I do that?"

"I'll do anything, I just want him gone" Dee uncrosses his arms and stands up. He stalks towards me slowly. He backs me up against the cave wall.

"Anything..?" He says, I nod faintly. He claps his hands together and smiles.

"Well ok then, I think I'll keep you" .......what

"Uhhhh....what do you mean"

"If I split you and Paranoia I'm keeping you" he spits out. Pppppffffftttttttttt

"Well do we have a deal" he asks while holding out his hand. Ok do what Logan says. Weigh the pros and cons.

Pro: I don't have to be worried about paranoia forcing a stick and I can be free to kill his ass and get revenge for Dolin

Con:everything else...........................

I need to protect Roman I can't let him die too. No like how I let Dolin.......

Flashes of Dolin on the ground bleeding out clouds my vision. Not again. I need to protect my family.

"Deal" I shake his hand and a bright white light surrounds me. I feel a tugging sensation on both sides of my body. It goes on for what feel like hours. I don't know what is going on around me. All I know is pain. I feel like I'm being torn in two. Like a piece of me is being ripped away. Then it all stops.

My vision settles on the side in front of me. Paranoia! I did it. I actually split us. I slowly stand up from my spot on the cave floor. I'm wearing a white leather jacket with ripped white jeans and a lavender under shirt. Where the fuck is my hoodie. WHERE THE FUCK IS MY HOODIE. Ok V pull yourself together now isn't the time to panic. WHOA i just told myself not to panic.....that's new. I feel better, about everything. I don't feel any fear or worry. Obviously my instincts are still there along with my anxiety but it is a good feeling. Then it all crashes in. I see Paranoia raise his fist then I feel a hot flash on my face. It all keeps coming over and over again. Then black.
