Sleepless Agony

Chapter 6: Eyes Can Be Deceiving

Beep. Beep. Beep.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

Beep..Beep..Beep..

Beep...Beep...Beep...

Foxy woke up to the declining beeping of the machine. He shot up like a rocket and look at the device. Foxy spammed for the nurse calling button. Soon, a nurse rushed over and saw what was happening.

"We need a doctor in this room, stat!" The nurse screamed down the hallway, getting everyone's attention. Lolbit's doctor ran into the room and looked around to assess the situation.

"We need a doctor?" Lolbit thought as the sound resonated in her ears. "What do they mean? What is that beeping noise?" The note gradually slowed down as she heard the commotion going on.

"We need to resuscitate her!" a voice shouted.

"Don't let her die!" Another yelled, sounding like Foxy, "Please...don't let my wife die!"

"Wait, die?" Lolbit questioned as the words crept out her mouth. "Am I dying?"

The doctors checked Lolbit's pulse but felt something irregular. "Wait, something is wrong." Everone pause as the doctor declared that sentence. The doctor grabbed a flashlight and opened Lolbit's eyes. He shinned the blinding tool at her face to see a dilation of her pupils. The machine flatlined as he turned around to face everyone.

He let out the faintest whisper where only Lolbit could hear it.

"She's still alive."

Red sat and watched the twins play Note Saber. Slick started playing It's Been So Long. "I don't know what I was thinking," Slick began to sing.

Red joined in, "Leaving my child behind,"

Sly completed the trio, "Now I suffer the curse, and now I am blind,"

They all started to sing in unison. "With all this anger, guilt, and sadness coming to haunt me forever, I can't wait at the cliff at the end of the river."

Slick hit all of the blocks, but still missing some here and there. Soon, Rose started to join in at the chorus. "It's been so long since I last had seen my son lost to this monster. To the man behind the slaughter."

Ashelly looked at the now quartet and made a slight smile. Winter sat next to her and notice her weird mood. She scooted over closer to her. "Hey, how's it going?" Winter spoke, trying to be sincere, but her tone still the same as always.

Ashelly looked up to see the sister. She returned to her original position. "Nothing," Ashelly answered dryly. A long pause followed her answer. Winter gave a concerned look and shoved Ashelly's shoulder a little.

"C'mon, Ash, tell me what's wrong, please?" Winter spoke in an actually concerned tone of voice. Ashelly quickly looked at her. She didn't know what surprised her most, the fact that Winter was genuinely worried or the fact she was just called Ash.

"Uh," was the only sound that could escape her when she was abruptly cut off from Slick, Sly, Red, and Rose celebrating that they finished the song.

"Wooo! That was fun!" Sly yelled and jumped into the air. Slick sat the game equipment down and sat next to Red on the couch. Sly followed en route. She looked across the other end of the sofa to see Ashelly tucked into the sofa's armrest. "Who wants to play next?" Slick asked, looking around the room. His eyes darted to Ashelly, as he noticed her melancholy mood. He got up and gave her the controls.

"Huh? No, I don't want to play," Ashelly rejected, looking back down at the floor. Slick pushed the equipment onto her.

"No, please do it! I insist. No take backs!" Slick stated after going back to his position near Red. Ashelly huffed and got up to put the gaming equipment on. She scrolled through the songs and picked Welcome To Freddy's by Madame Macabre. She put the game mode on expert plus, earning a shock from her siblings. "Huh? Expert plus? How the heck is she gonna complete that?!" Slick yelled out.
