Still a bit shaken from the Hosts words and attempts, Y/n hugged Yellows forehead as they came to a stop in the hallway. Reggie was still buffering, his eyes filled with the text and bubbles again.
Y/n didnt like the way that looked. They much preferred his nice brown eyes than those soulless walls of black and white.
Yellow tried a few different ways to wake him up; gently patting on the cheek, booping his nose, shaking him a little and trying to look into his buffering visual receptors. Alas, Red did not wake up with ease, and Yellow feared that their day might be put on hold because of this loading error.
"I shall only need a few minutes to work on Reggie, dont stray too far" Yellow requested of the small child, taking the little button off of his shoulders. "Stopping you mid update was a mistake, huh?" Yellow said to his counterpart, pulling up the androids shirt to access his chest panel, which popped open after a few taps.
Y/n didnt see much past that, looking down the hallway. They saw someone in a blue shirt turn and enter a room.
The man in the painting.
Y/n looked at Yellow for a moment before abandoning their post, curiosity leading the kitten forward.
They moved as quietly as they could, placing their small hand on the closing door to stop it. After a moment, they slowly pried the door open and peaked in.
The room was dark, lit only a faint blue by computer screens. No sign of the man..so the child went in further, leaving the door a few steps behind them as they looked around. Cords riddled the floor and walls, making them look like smooth and scaly silver snakes that would devour such small prey if given the chance. The room was cold, icy, even, as though the small ones flesh were to turn to ice!
There was static..a sound of high and light that made Y/n cover their ears..they backed up, only to find themselves sunk against a wall. They followed it to the floor, covering their ears and closing their eyes, in hopes it would stop.
Yellow finished his work with Red, sighing in relief as his friend came back online. "Now we can get back to- y/n? Y/n?!" Yellow panicked, having lost sight of his delicate package. Panic seared his body as he fretted, starting to search, to call out their name.
Alas, Y/n could not hear their guardian call for them. The sounds were intense, overloading the small childs senses and making them tear up. They didnt even hear the hallway door slam shut, locking Yellow and Red from their squishy target.
Y/n made the mistake of looking up. Glowing in the dark, grin illuminated by the monitors was a man. He looked over the child, giggling as he held a knife over their head.
"S̷̨̻͙̪̦͔̠̣͉̿̌͒͐͆̄͌̀ą̷̡͓̗̠̹̫͑̋̓̃͊͝y̴̭̦͊̂̅͂̐̑͋̊ ̸̧̧̖̫̼̙̮͋̅͜g̸̢̡͓̩̘̞̠͙̈́̎̀͑͌̕ȯ̵̗̝̩͍̪̤̊̉͆͝o̴̯͙̤̖͈̍̿͑̓̕ḑ̶̢̖̞͖̦̼̩̋̿̑͝͝b̴̛͙̼͔̖̃͊͋̉̒̾̚̚͝y̶̤̻̰̫̟̖͕͎̯̠͠ë̶̲͙̘̟̳̲̱́͘"
The voice snarled, loud over the static as Y/ns eyes widened.
"Eat lead glitch thing!" A new voice shouted. A man in a blue shirt sprung from the shadows and hit the other Male with a metal baseball bat, knocking him away from the child.
The glitching man hit against the wall, leaving a dent in the metal snakes which, to Y/n horror, came alive and wrapped around the intruders body. The static calmed down, the two men screaming at each other. The glitching ones blue and green eyes glowing in the dark, the blue shirts glasses being filled with the light from the computers.
They exchanged some words and the blue one wound up for another hit, the intruder disappearing a moment before impact, leaving the blue one to pant, having hit the metal snakes.
"Actually, its Aluminum" the blue one growled as he turned to the child, setting the bat against the wall. Y/n shrank away immediately..but the man in blue gently scooped them up and opened the door- Yellow falling into the room as the door was opened. The blue one chuckled softly, "Missing someone?"
