Process of Elimination (BFDI) [Slowish Updates]

Tensions

No POV

"Everyone, quiet down!" Donut shouted, trying to be heard over the loud voices of the remaining contestants.

Eventually they became quieter.

"The remaining members of Death P.A.C.T., aside from Pen, have left. And there are a few contestants missing, that are still alive."

"How do you know they're not dead?" Eraser asked.

"I, uh- I don't. But last time I saw them, they were alive." Donut replied.

"So who are these missing contestants?!" Fanny yelled.

"It's-" Donut started.

"Clock, Eggy, Yellowface, Rocky, Grassy, Balloony and Basketball." Blocky spoke up, interrupting Donut. "Basketball and Balloony didn't want Grassy and Rocky in a room that still smells like dead Loser. I have no idea where Clock, Eggy and Yellowface are."

"Speaking of that, I don't think I've seen Yellowface for a while." Gelatin said.

"Yeah... do you think maybe he got killed?" Naily asked nervously.

"Yellowface is a two dimensional object. Perhaps he simply slid through the gate and ran away." Lollipop suggested.

"Well, I think we should look for him, we need to make sure every contestant is accounted for." Barf Bag said.

Eggy's POV

I slowly opened my eyes, groaning. "Ow... I have a huge headache..." I rubbed my head and felt a bandage wrapped around it.

"Oh, hey, you're awake." Clock turned toward me. I immediately remembered what happened last night.

"H-hey, wait! Stay back!" I got up quickly from the bed, backing toward the door.

"Will you calm down?" He approached slowly, and I tripped on the ground, falling backward. He dove under me, and I landed on him. He groaned.

"For christ's sake Eggy, I was saving your life!" He pushed me off, and sat up, facing away and wincing.

"Y-You were saving me?"

"Yes! I found you on the ground below the stairs, and you were bleeding badly. You're only alive because of me, and you're making it pretty hard not to regret that." He turned to me and I saw now that his glass face had a three way crack. Surprisingly, he looked more annoyed than angry.

"I-I'm so sorry..." I felt like such an idiot. "I had no idea."

"Well... I get that it was painful. So you didn't see who the person who pushed you was?"

"No, sorry."

"It's alright." He sighed, and sat on the bed, patting next to him with his leg. I sat next to him.

"So, do you think they've noticed we're gone by now?"

"Probably, with this many people dying I'm sure they've learned to notice who's there and who isn't." He replied.

"What do you think we can do while we wait and see if they find us?"

"No clue."

Naily's POV

"So, how much do you wanna bet he just left like Lollipop said?" Gelatin asked, looking around the library.

"No idea. We gotta look for him anyway, right? I mean, he is a contestant." We had split up into groups of two, so naturally me and Gelatin paired up. Great minds think alike. I imagine that applies to our not-so-great minds.

"Well, he's probably-" Gelatin was interrupted by a scream.

"T-that sounded like Leafy!" I yelled.

"Come on, we have to go! She might be in trouble!"
