17: Two days left

..

The loud sound of water droplets hitting your window wakes you up- or was it the nightmare you had? Did that count as a nightmare.. actually? You adjust yourself as you sit up on your bed, it was another day.. a very cloudy one. You look outside the window just beside your bed, it was raining. Really hard.. it might stay like this for an hour or so..

The first ng you decide to check is your phone, hanging for dear life at.. oh at 19 percent. That was just a percent less than yesterday, okay then.. other than some spam from some weird article you accidentally subscribed to (and until now, you haven't figured out where it was coming from) there were some texts from your mom.. you click on the notification which sends you to the messaging app.

MOM
< Are you doing okay?
< You haven't been answering my calls again.. you know how worried I get when you don't qsnwrr them!
< *Answer
< I hope you're doing your chores, do them at your own pace okay, even I couldn't possibly finish them all in one day!!
< Oh also
< Did you end up visiting Funny? Funneh?
< I hope you did! Since she seemed to be just as worried about you as me.. if you didn't, it's alright, take things at your own pace.
< Also can you check the closet downstairs for anything you want to keep? We'll throw whatever you do need anymore- but don't pick everything, I doubt we'll have space in that tiny car of ours 😂
< That's all! Don't forget in two days I'll pick you up, okay?
< Bye bye! Don't forget that mommy loves you okay!! 💕💕💕💕💕

Love you too >

...

Oh yes.. Funneh. You forgot about her, haven't you? Your eyes wander towards the window, it was raining really hard... Will she come today? you doubt she'd decide to walk out, maybe.. maybe today you won't be going out.. you did what mom wanted you to do, which was to leave the house once... You don't have to do it again perhaps.

Hm.. you click open the door as you walk into the next room beside yours, which was the bathroom. Due to the marble floor and walls.. it feels really cold, even if you were wearing socks and long sleeves- you mumble something as you fix up the collar of your white collared shirt. Your black vest from yesterday sits peacefully on your bed, mostly because it was hot last night.. the complete opposite of right now.

You pick up the toothbrush and toothpaste, horribly enough.. you remembered that you haven't really.. been brushing your teeth recently, your teeth still look fine.. but you won't risk another day without brushing them.

You brush your teeth for a solid one or two minutes before spitting the paste out- you stare at the sink for a bit as you wash your face..

you feel like theres something here.

Something in the room.
Something weighing your shoulder.
Something..

Your eyes glance to the mirror.
Someone was beside you, her body slightly leaning against yours. The girl was almost the same height as yours, her being slightly taller however, as her long dark hair covered her face. Despite her face being completely covered.. you know she's smiling. You can tell.

You stare at the reflection of the girl for a bit, just hoping she would just...go away. But she won't. You wanted to leave first, you tried.. but your feet won't let you- it's like.. you're stuck in place.. until she leaves.

"Don't you miss me?"

She would say, her head tilting. You don't reply, because she isn't real and she is just a hallucination. You have been reminded multiple times of this. Her head tilts back into place.

"Why won't you talk to me?"

She'd continue. You don't reply yet again. You decide to focus more on the reflection of yourself than hers.

"...do you hate me?"

She asks, her head tilting below this time. Her never once looking away from you.. you can tell. You flinch at the question but you keep quiet. Nobody hates her, you don't hate her.. but she is just your imagination, a hallucination. The girl raises her right hand to her hair, as she slowly moves it, revealing an eye. A bloodshot one piercing right into you.

"..well I don't hate you."

Her mouth turns into a large grin, just an empty black void inside it. Please leave me alone. You hug yourself in hopes to comfort yourself, you're scared- but why? you deal with this everyday.. what's the big deal today? She chuckles to herself loudly before disappearing.. again. Like always.

You sign to yourself, whenever she's around you can't help but feel scared. Scared and regretful, for whatever reason. You decide to walk downstairs to find something to do today.

..

There was nothing interesting in the closet. You yawn to yourself, as you look through all the boxes of stuff in it. The closet is situated just beside the staircase, and it's a very small one.. the closet you mean. Yet it holds lots of stuff.. stuff that isn't important to you, well.. not anymore.

You decide to only take out the stuff that you'd like to keep while the rest will be thrown or given away. Stuff like dad's fishing rods, mom's cooking books, old clothes.. none of those were important in your eyes. You start shivering.. why was it getting so cold suddenly-, the hell? You stay silent as you listen to the sound of rain hitting the roof of your house, it's still raining.. and pretty heavy too.. you doubt Funneh will come today.

You think to yourself, as you open up yet another dusty looking box. Inside were more clothes.. which was weird because you were so sure mom decided to give them all away.. and she did.. didn't she? She must've gave away only your clothes because Rainbow's clothes are mostly the ones you find. In fact, right now you're holding a jacket she used to wear. A light pink jacket, its hoodie and sleeves a grey colour.

You used to have a matching purple one, but it's small now.. and you don't really know where it went either. You look at the jacket, as you dust it off. Actually.. now that you think about it, you wonder how big you've gotten since then.. you unzip the jacket as you get up to test it on. You wear it over your white collared shirt. You look at it.. it fits. Yeah..? You move your arms around, testing the jackets potential. It's a perfect fit.

You feel very comfortable in the jacket. It gives you a weird sense of nostalgia. When you hug yourself with it, it's just like hugging your big sister all over again. ..that's depressing. You decide to sit back down and continue sorting out the stuff, who knows what outfits you can steal from your sister now. She can't possibly mind.. would she?

..
*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

That was the last box anyways.. nothing was interesting or could fit you other than the jacket. Surprisingly enough, everything else was far to small for you.. how small even was Rainbow-

*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

..who's that? You think to yourself as you push all the boxes back in the closet, you yawn once again as you make your way to the front door. You listen quietly, it was still raining. Who's would be the door? You raise your hand to the doorknob, opening it.

Revealing your friend.

..

"Top of the morning to ya, Lunar!! Or uh.. afternoon actually.." she mutters, glancing at her watch. She wears a completely different outfit from yesterday. She wears an orange shirt, with her sleeves and collar being blue. (I would put a pic but oh, Wattpad is such a BITCH) She holds onto an umbrella.

"Sorry for coming pretty late- my mom forced me to clean my room, saying something about how my room looked like a goblins lair or some shit- anyways look what I have on!!" Funneh exclaims, pointing at the weird hat on her-

Wait- That's yours. That's your frog hat.
Funneh notices your glares to the hat on her head as she laughs.

"Oh this? Hah! Well.. you dropped it on the sidewalk or something and I only noticed it when I was walking home- wanted to give it back to you today!!" She exclaims as she puts the hat back on your head, where it belongs.

"Don't worry Lunar! I wasn't thinking of stealing it!" She reassures. However despite how much you missed the hat.. you can't get yourself to walk around with this stupid hat on your head today,
so you open the door behind you and throw it in.. as safe keeping.

"I.. see- oh yeah! Anyways-" Funneh exclaims, using her head to point to the sky. "Not a really good day today huh? It's raining pretty hard, but I still really wanna hang out! Where do you think we should go?" She asks, using her free hand to strike a thinking pose. You think silently too.

".....Ooh- yes! I got an idea!!" Funneh exclaims, after legitimately two seconds. "Why don't we head to the arcade! That'll be fun!!" The arcade.. you haven't been there in a while.. you used to hang out with them there after school, Funneh and Draco would compete in random games while you and Gold were more on criticizing their gameplay or about the food there. Rainbow rarely followed, something about homework- she actually cared about her school life unlike you.

"I'll race you!!" Funneh randomly yells before sprinting away, with the damn umbrella. You pull up your hoodie as you chase after her. "Wait- what the heck?!?!?" Funneh exclaims, as she stops dead in her tracks. Because of this, you bump into her. "Oh my god-" Funneh mutters, as she looks at the lawn. More shit. More than yesterday.

"I swear to god- who has a dog here- wait.. Prince has a dog.." Funneh mumbles to herself. "Oh my god, you think this might've been Gold's doing?? Since.. you know, yesterday" she asks, slightly cringing once again. Perhaps.. "that explains the massive pile.. of SHIT in MY YARD" She randomly yells, as if she's targeting someone. Funneh sighs, "whatever let's head off!" Funneh exclaims before sprinting again.

..

"I'm so stupid- sorry Lunar" Funneh apologizes, as she places her umbrella over you. She must've noticed that she was forcing you to run in the fricking rain. "I was so on the fact that I'll share the umbrella with you when I came out the house, but then I get there and I automatically forget, isn't that something!" She laughs, you didn't mind honestly. But the umbrella did better protection than what the hell your hoodie was doing.

"Well let's head in then, shall we?" Funneh exclaims, as she points towards the arcade. The arcade was one of the outside stores in Faraway Plaza. Going in, you're greeted with neon coloured lights. The carpet a dark navy with stars and patterns all around it. The place wasn't as lively, but it was just the same as you remembered. You look around in awe. How does something not change even after four exact years?

"Well! I'll be getting our tokens now! Look around!" She exclaims, "don't worry, with how small this place is- I doubt you'd get lost or something" she walks away, heading towards the token machine farther away from you. That's the complete opposite of what Rainbow would've said. You could be in the most safest place you could ever think of.. and she'd still needs to know where you are at all times till you reach home. "....." How many times have you brought her up today?

Hm.. you look around, there are lots of arcade games to look at.. where should you head to first..

..

There were lots of games. Some looked new, while others gave you nostalgia. Like that claw machine! It holds lots of toys in it.. you remember when the four of you would try your hardest to get at least one thing from it. To the point you'd visit the machine daily! You only ever gotten one thing from it.. and it was a yo-yo! Funneh ended up taking it and loosing it in just one day...

Or that Air Hockey table. Out of everyone, it was decided that you were the best at this game! the only time you ever lost is usually when you play with Rainbow, on those rare days when she didn't have anything to do after school. She would beat you with a score of 5/12, with her right hand in her pocket. Which was worse because she's right handed. And yet you still scored 5.. imagine the other three.

There was also a DDR game.. you rarely played it since you never really understood it. The one usually playing it would be Gold, mostly because she usually got tired of waiting for the other two to finish their racing competition.. which was on some car racing game just in front of the DDR machine. Which was funny because Gold could spectate their race while playing a different game.

You walk past some more memorable games like those shooting games with those fake ass zombies, those basketball games, pinball machines.. ect.

You stop at a arcade machine, a dark blue one.. Space Invaders.. you didn't stop because of the game, you stopped because of the person playing the game. The boy was completely focused on the game as he mashes some buttons, you stare at him. You didn't expect to see Draco today..

He glances at you, before focusing on his game again..

..

He looks at you yet again, this time in shock. The sound of a Game Over can be heard from the machine.. oh shoot did you distract him? Your bad.

"...Lunar? I.. I didn't expect to see you today" he exclaims, in shock. He looks around, "did you come with someone? Or did you just.. randomly decided to head here..?" He asks, trying to start conversation. You stare at him a familiar blank expression, one he knows far too well. You turn towards the game, which was right now showing a screen of top scores.

1) ★★★★★
2) ★★★★★
3) ★★★★★
4) LUNAR ECLISPE
5) ★★★★★

Your eyes widen at the sight. Your name is still on the top five?!? If you remember.. you were number 2 then.. so you did go down a few.. but.. still being on the top five despite it being four years should be a achievement.

...

"6, 247 points!" That has to be your highest. Rainbow claps her hands, she looks really proud.. the screen switches to the score board, where your name is placed second.

"You got second place!! What the heck- that's so cool!!" Rainbow exclaims, excited for you. She notices something however, as she focuses on the screen. "Oh Eclipse?" She reads, mentioning the name written after yours. "Like my piano?" She asks, you shake your head in frustration. "Rainbow, Rainbow... you know her addiction is bad when she forgets eclipse was a word before her piano" You mumble, mocking your stupid sister.

She seemed annoyed, "oh- I knew that! Is it because you like space then? Space stuff.." Rainbow asks, confused about the name choice. "...yeah?" "Cool, also you spelled Eclipse wrong" she points out- huh? You stare at the name on the screen in confusion.

"Yeah it's Eclipse, not EclisPE" the way she sounds it out sounds like she's mocking you, and that's annoying. You try to swing a punch at her face, but she dodges it as she continues giggling to herself. "Ooh- look! They're trying out the claw machine again! Hehe, I'm going to go give them emotional support!" Rainbow exclaims, running towards your friends who are all standing dramatically at the claw machine.

...you turn back towards the game cabinet.
LUNAR ECLISPE / 6,247 points.
You wish it really was about eclipses.. you think to yourself, as you walk towards your friends and sister..

..

"...I see.. well.. did you want to play? Sorry" he apologizes, backing away from the machine. Oh wait you didn't.. you shake your head, you don't even remember how to play these type of games..

"...Oh wait isn't that.." a female voice exclaims from behind Draco, Funneh! She's back, with a bunch of tokens in her hands. "Draco!!! I didn't know you were here!" She greets, Draco sighs in relief at this. "Oh Funneh.. hi.." "What're you doing here? I rarely see you here these days, dude!" She exclaims, walking beside you.

"Well, I USED to be busy.. but now I'm not, so here I am" he explains bluntly, not wanting to explain more. "Well then! Wanna play with us? I bought like.. lots of tokens.. my mom's gonna kill me, but whatever" she shrugs. Oh don't die Funneh. "I don't know... It'd be pretty shit if I just-" he's trying to find an excuse.. you can tell.

"What?? When were you so considerate- come on dude! You're already here anyways right?" Funneh continues, tilting her head in an annoyed manner. "Come onn" "...well you don't mind.. right? Lunar.." he asks you, you don't mind at all. You shake your head, as Funneh gives the tall boy a toothy grin. "Dibs Street Fighter!!" She yells, heading towards said machine. "Oh dude- what!?" Draco yells, running after her.. you run along with them.

..

"AGJWGHSGSJ I HATE THIS, I HATE YOU, I HATE EVERYTHING" Funneh yells, on the floor, gripping onto the Claw machine. "Dude that was so close too- god.. this game is so rigged!.. I told you!" Draco exclaims, looking at his broken friend. "...No. try again, that was so close we might be able to-" "No Funneh I legit don't think we can-" "DRACO. THESE. ARE MY TOKENS. I GET TO DECIDE THEIR FATE. AND I SAY. CLAW MACHINE"

You stare at your friends with concern. You bite down on another fry that you went and bought earlier.. with Funneh's money of course. These fries are dry as hell, they didn't even give you sauce. Horrible.

"...I'd sue this place, but I'll continue eating for now.. because it's food, can't waste it." You mutter to yourself. You won't actually sue this place. These were just many of the many things you had recited from Gold. "...they aren't even salty.. well.. some are, others are as if they went and coated the entire fry with salt.. how do you even mess up that badly?.." You recite once again, under your breath. You know you complain a lot when someone can full on recite everything you complained about from heart.

You wish Gold were here honestly. Then it would be just like old times. You wish nobody hated eachother and everybody were friends again.. but for now, you'll just deal with only having two out of four friends with you-

"YEAHHHHHH!!! LUNAR- LUNAR!!! LOOK AT THIS- WE GOT IT!!!" Funneh yells, shoving an orange coloured sprout mole plushie into your face. "And it was all because of me" Draco exclaims, pointing at himself, proudly. "Yup, and rules are that the person who wins it, gets to keep it" she exclaims, handing Draco the plush as if she was handing him a trophy. They randomly pose while staring at you, you sigh as you place your fries on the counter behind you as you hold an invisible camera, you click your tongue to tell them you took their 'picture' already.

"Thank you, thank you very much" he thanks, in a mocking like manner as he places the plush on his head. You could feel the people staring at you, some are concerned, some are trying to hold in their laughs, some are ready to call the mental hospital if one of you decide to laugh really loudly like a maniac again.

"Ah just my luck too, that was my last token! Well, at least we won something right?" Funneh exclaims, stealing a fry from you. "Yeah sure, but you sure you're gonna give it to me? You don't want it?" Draco asks, taking the plushie off his head. "Obviously not!! You won it fair and square! It's yours now" Funneh exclaims, pointing at Draco.

"..okay. I'll name him Draco Jr then" Draco exclaims, as he places it on his head again.

..

The cold feeling of the air conditioner drifts away as you walk out of the arcade. You had a fun time playing around with all your friends again, you beated them over air hockey about 10 times- despite haven't playing in four years, you're still the best and you're proud.

The rain outside has stopped yet it still felt really cold and hazy outside, but it was less cold than the inside of the arcade! It was legit freezing in there.

"Alrighty now! What should we do now?" Funneh asks, swinging her umbrella over her shoulder. "..we?" Draco repeats, still not getting the hint. "Well yeah! You're not busy right? It's summer vacation! I doubt you have anything to do.. right?" Funneh asks, concerned. "Well.. no, but.." "well then! Wasn't it fun hanging out again like old times?" Funneh asks, the question both for him and you.

"Well.. I guess it was" "I'm not forcing you to hang out with us, but it would be nice!" "..." Draco thinks to himself for a bit, slowly and hesitantly he nods- making Funneh celebrate. "Yeah but- if we're gonna hang out, can I bring this thing home first?", He motions to the plushie in his hands, "I'd rather not loose it" "yeah sure!! We'll follow from behind!"

..

The three of you walk back to Draco's house, despite you only being out for one and a half day.. you've been to this dude's house two times already, about to be three. "Is Mrs Polly home?" Funneh asks, starting up some small talk. "Yeah.. I think so, grandma hasn't been feeling good lately.. whenever Polly needs something, she'd ask me to get it for her as she stays by grandma's side.." the three of you stay silent for a while.

"..I hope she gets better soon" "thanks" Funneh glances around, thinking of something else to talk about. "Hey.. you think we could visit your grandma as well? Even for only a while.." "yeah, I don't think she'd mind.." you glance around.

There was not a lot of people on the sidewalks with you so you look across, towards the sidewalk beside yours. There were some people.. people who don't matter to you, the only person that catches your attention there was a black haired girl, her hair in a ponytail. She seems to be 15.. and her eyes are.. a dark brown colour.. her eyes turn to you, she smiles..

..oh Rainbow..

"Lunar? You okay?" Funneh asks, bringing you back to reality. You glance at her before turning back to Rainbow- she's gone. You sigh.. you're hallucinating again, dad was right.. you do need to go to a hospital. Maybe a psych ward would be a suitable choice like he said.. you nod your head to Funneh's question as you walk off, leading the two of them to Draco's house.

..

The door shuts from behind you. "Ah home sweet home" Funneh exclaims, holding her arms out as if she were to hug the house or something. "Shut up bitch you don't live here" "shut up bitch, I can live wherever I want to live.. bitch" you hum in amusement, they never change.

"Oh? Draco you brought your friends here again?" Polly asks, out of the hallway. "They wanted to visit grandma, they can.. right?" Draco asks, as he places his newly gotten prize on the kitchen's counter. "Oh- of course! Wow, lots of people have been visiting grandma lately" Polly exclaims, as she leads the three of you towards Draco's grandma's room. That's a mouthful, you would call her by her name.. if you had remembered it. Sorry, You have a terrible memory.
"Hm? Wait- There were people visiting? Who?" Draco asks, he didn't know there were people visiting. Polly walks towards the farthest door on the left and holds the doorknob, turning towards the three of you. "Well some usually visited while you were at school, or were out of the house.. and for the people here right now.." she stretches the 'now' while glancing at Funneh, making a face. She opens the door, revealing the small room.

The walls and floor a beige colour, with not a lot of things in it. Just a bed, a bedside table and some hospital equipment in the corner.. there were two things that caught your eye however. One, the large 'get well soon' flower on the bedside table. And two, the grandma lying on the bed.. awake. There were two adults in the room talking to Draco's grandma. A female and a male. They both had brown hair, the women's hair being lighter than the man, who wore glasses. They notice the company, as they turn towards the door.

".. FunnehCake! There you are!" Funneh flinches at the sight, you glance at her with a confused face. The woman stomped towards Funneh, who starts to slowly back away, hiding behind you. "Polly! You didn't tell me they were my parents..!" Funneh whispers, loud enough for you to hear. Her parents..?

"We were looking all over for you! You didn't even tell me you were going to leave the house!" She scolds, "sorry mom- I was uh.. busy..??" "Busy?!? What business could my lazy daughter possibly have?!?" She exclaims, before her eyes turning towards you. "...I was busy um.. showing Lunar around?" Funneh adds, pushing you in front of her- blocking Funneh.

"..Oh my goodness!!" The mom gasps, as she runs towards you- pinching your face. "Oh my!! Are you Lunar- It's been so long! How have you been?!?" She asks, you're in too much shock. "Oh my! You're so thin! Have you not been eating lately?!?" Owie, she's pinching my- your.. Your cheeks really hard.

"Come on darling, don't kill the kid" the dad exclaims, releasing you from the horrible torture. "Well Lunar! It's nice to see you again.. oh! We're having roasted chicken for dinner tonight! You can have dinner with us if you want!!" She invites, ooh chicken?? You give a slight smile. You'll come, that sounds good. See? This is how you treat people who haven't left their house in a while. By treating them to free dinner! Not publicly humiliating them with a frog hat.

"Oh my, so many visitors.. thank you all for coming" the elderly woman exclaims, her sweet smile welcoming you. You haven't seen her in such a while but she looks the same as then.. just more older.. and wrinkly. "..I really appreciate it" she chuckles. You couldn't help but smile.. yet deep inside, you still feel the same.

..

*BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
"..what the heck?" Draco asks, turning to Polly, who's also trying to guess where the sound is coming from. "..Wait.. OH MY GOD- I'M MAKING COOKIES" She yells, darting out the room. "POLLY WHAT-" Draco yells next, following her. The room stays quiet for a bit, as the beeping of the fire alarm keeps going.

"OH MY GOD THERES A FIRE" You could hear Draco yell in the distance. "What? Oh no.." Funneh's dad mutters, as he makes his way out the room, his wife following him. "..Wait.. I wanna see-" Funneh chuckles lastly,

walking out the room. She turns towards you as she tilts her head, probably meaning something like- 'Are you coming?'. You nod as she walks out, interested to see what's happening with all the yelling in the kitchen.

You're about to leave too- "Ah, you're Mr Starlight's daughter, aren't you?" You halt in your tracks. Nobody mentioned that name to you in a while.. you sometimes forget that that's your last name. You turn towards Mrs May, Draco's grandma. You remember now. You remember her name.. obviously not because of the large get well soon card that has her name written in bold red, not because of that haha.

"Ah what's your name.. let me think.. uh.. um... Sorry I've gotten quite old haha-" she chuckles, you can't help but chuckle along. "..Oh yes! You're their youngest! Lunar.. right?" She remembers your name. You nod your head, as you walk towards her. Maybe you won't leave the room just yet, you'll keep this lady company while the others go crazy about the fire.

"Oh my.. I haven't seen you in so long, you've grown taller haven't you?" She exclaims in weak manner, as she holds her hand out.. her hand trembles. You look at the old woman with pity in your eyes, you haven't seen her in so long.

"How has your home schooling been going? I bet you have become a real smart girl, huh?" Ah homeschool? You haven't done that in a while.. the last thing you remember is dying over algebra.. and that was two months ago... So.. you shrug at the question, hoping she'd see it as a positive shrug. She hums in response, that warm smile never leaving her face.

The two of stay in silent for a bit, which is awkward. Does she not want to talk to you anymore? Maybe you're boring. You turn away, Hm.. maybe you should leave, maybe get Funneh to talk to her next.. she's better than you in conversation-

"You know.. you look just like your sister" your eyes widen, you turn back to Mrs May. Do you? Do you really? No.. you don't, you can never possibly..

She seems to notice your hesitance, as she continues. "Yes, really! You've grown just as pretty as your sister.. if she could see you.. she would be proud" you stare at her, speechless. You don't know why, but this makes you really sad. This makes you really.. really sad.

"..She wouldn't.." you hoarsely mumble. She can't possibly be proud of a person that hides in her home for four years out of mourning. A girl that rarely gets As on her tests.. the girl who couldn't even play the violin correctly without mistakes.. she wouldn't be proud, she would be embarrassed.

"She would.. I know your sister, and I know you.. and you're a really talented kid, Lunar.. if anything, you just need a few pushes and maybe.. no you WILL be just as great as your sister" me? Just like Rainbow? No..

"..No.. I can't possibly achieve as much as her" you mumble again. Then you think. If Rainbow was still here.. maybe.. maybe she would be proud of you.. maybe..

Mrs May smiles at you, she knows what she means.. you stare at her, despite your eyes being the same dark blank stare.. she could see some emotion in them.. Sad? Happy? Relieved? You yourself can't understand what you're thinking right now.. you get down on your knees as Mrs May side hugs you, you need the embrace right now..

..

"Thank you all so much for visiting grandma! She's very happy" Polly thanks once again, towards Funneh's parents, Funneh and you. Draco stands outside with you, you and Funneh both forced him to hang out for at least one more hour.. so uh.

"Don't come home late okay, Draco?"
"Yes, Polly.."
"You don't want poor grandma to worry, not like last time.."
"...okay"

All of you walk away from the house, as Funneh's mom turns towards you. "So Lunar! Don't forget about the dinner okay- oh and Draco too!" Draco stares at her in confusion, "huh? Dinner?" He repeats. "Yeah! My mom's making roasted chicken! It's really good-" "okay I'll come" Draco exclaims. He's still a foodie until now.. congrats.

"Hm!" Funneh's mom hums in amusement, "well then! I'll head home right away to make an entire buffet! Let's head home- bye bye Funneh!" She waves at her daughter, "don't do stupid stuff okay?" "..okay mom" Funneh mumbles, a bit embarrassed now. "Byeeeee" she stretches the word, as she turns a corner.. somehow, you could still slightly hear her.

"...My bad" Funneh apologizes. "Nah dude, it's okay- your mom is surprisingly pretty chill" Draco exclaims, "what? You think she'd be a rude bitch or something?" "Who knows.. then she'd be just like her daughter"

..

"Hey.. actually Lunar, you okay?" You turn to Funneh, who was beside you. You dart your eyes away from Draco, who's rubbing his sore head. What would make her think you aren't okay? Draco turns to you to see what's up. "Oh- no it's nothing it's just.." Funneh mumbles, trying to think of something. "Ah.. nevermind-" she mumbles.

"..I remember hearing about a little store from my friend" Funneh randomly starts. "It was a little stand by some kid that sells something really important to me-" Funneh pauses as her eyes widen.

"- wait. Oh my god" Funneh mumbles, before sprinting away from the two of you. "Ugh- what's with that girl now???" Draco complains, he turns towards you. He suddenly looks away. "..we should uh.. follow her" Draco mumbles, following the path Funneh took.

..

You and Draco walk towards a stand that's set just in front of Faraway Park. It seems to be child business.. because a child is at the stand. He seem to be selling toys or something.. hm, back in your days you sold lemonade for money.. toys is just something you never thought of.. it's pretty smart honestly.

"Do you want to buy anything?" The child asks, he seems to be about 6-8. "Nah.. I'm just looking for a friend.. a blue haired girl" Draco explains to the weirdly dark blue haired boy. "Oh- that one? She bought my entire collection of silly string. She's a weird one" ...Silly string? Your eyes widen in horror at the mention of the word. You turn towards Draco, who looks just as horrified as you.

"..she went into the park" ohno. The poor old people. "Lunar. We must go.." Draco mumbles, before thanking the kid and sprinting in. "..man the teenagers here are losers" the kid exclaims, counting the money he made..

You follow in before-
*SSSSSSSSS

You were able to dodge the attack, thankfully. You instinctively kicked the legs of the attacker, sending her to the ground. "Disarm her!!" "NO WAIT-" The entire box of silly spray is taken away by Draco, while you take away the spray can she's holding.

"NO WAIT- I NEED IT" Funneh hisses, as she tries obtaining the can from you. But you luckily dodged the attack as you hurl the can away, onto the road out of the park. It then got run over by like.. four cars.

"..No.." Funneh mumbles, as she falls to the floor. "Funneh.. I honestly thought you forgot about these things.." Draco mumble, looking at the neon coloured box in his hands. The colours make it very easy to see from afar.. "Well I did slightly.. but.. who just.. forgets about those things..?" She asks, acting all dramatic. Funneh got banned from a store once for spraying silly string everywhere then, not only was she banned, but the silly string itself too, it's rare to find a shop that sells the funky little cans in this town now.

"Why does that kid even have those??" Is what Draco is more worried about, "Dunno- heard from somewhere that that kid moved from a different town or something- might've been why--" Funneh explains, while trying to obtain another can from Draco. "Nuh uh" Draco holds the box up high, unable for Funneh to reach from the ground. "Agh damn you.." "Throw it away Lunar, I'll stop her.." Draco mumbles, as he gives you the.. actually really heavy box as he braces himself.

"NO WAIT- ITS MINE. I WASTED 50 DOLLARS FOR IT" She hisses, trying to get to the box. "GO LUNAR GOOOO-" You run off, towards the closest trash can-... The farthest trashcan you can find! Because honestly, can you trust Funneh to not decide to dig into the trash of she knows you threw it in there? You've seen her do it once, don't need to guess again.

You runs to the edge of the park, an area which is out of Funneh's vision- and stuff the box of silly string into a bush. You couldn't find a trash can.. but this should do for now..

..

"Ma'am! Ma'am!! Please help us ma'am!!" A child voice yells, you turn away from your bush to reveal a little girl. She should be about 10.. you're guessing. Her hair a light brown. "Please help us ma'am, my uh.. friend! He's getting bullied!!" You stare at her in confusion, as you glance around. Ohno she's talking to you.

The little girl wore a messy bun while her skirt was slightly dirty. Oh you don't want anything to do with this.., "Please ma'am you have to help my friend!!" She exclaims, tears in her eyes. ...hm. You hold your hand out, a sign for her to wait, as you look back towards your friends. You had to back away a bit to see them, Funneh's depressed on the ground while Draco just stares at her.

Draco notices you staring, as you motion from him to come. He immediately gets the hint and pulls Funneh up to follow him.

"..What?" Draco asks, walking towards you, with Funneh following behind. You point towards the kid, who explains everything to them. "Hm? Bully? Who's bullying your friend??" Funneh exclaims, upset- forgetting about her silly string. "I don't know- but there were four other people.. one of them was a girl with a baseball bat!" Something clicks. You turn towards Funneh, who seems to be thinking the same exact thing.

"..Did she by chance.. have a yellow streak on her hair?" Funneh points out, showing where the streak would've been on her hair. "Yeah! That's right!" Gold.. she wouldn't.. that kid's really young, why would she pick on someone younger than her? You doubt it. You highly doubt it. Maybe someone has their hair dyed the same colour, coincidentally on the same place-

"Why would-" "Where are they?" Funneh asks, enraged. "..Follow me!" The girl exclaims, running off. You glance at Draco as he cusses something under his breath, following along. You sigh to yourself, as you run towards them. Nothing peaceful happens in Faraway..

..

You run along a very familiar road, you haven't been to this part of town yesterday.. yet it's still.. nostalgic. You run along a bridge, before reaching towards a supposed dead end with a bunch of trees. "Behind here!" The girl exclaims while walking through the trees, Draco stops in his steps. "..Wait.. isn't this..?" He mumbles, he looks at Funneh, who hasn't noticed as she was focused on following the girl. He glances to you next, who was staring right at him. He shudders, he looks uncomfortable. "..let's just.. head to them"

The two of you go through the trees, as you stumble into an open lake area. The lake was massive, it's crystal clear water reminding you of all the fun times you had while hanging out here. This is where you used to hang out with your friends.. with your sister.. you'd sometimes have picnics here. Now there's three strangers here who's looking down upon a little boy, the same age as the girl before. The boy had white short hair, as he holds a beaten up toy that probably belonged to his friend. The boy has tears in eyes, as he tries to fight the older boy away.

"I told you! Just leave already, this is our spot! Don't you understand??" The male asks, pushing the boy to the ground. "Norman, don't worry! I got someone to help!!" The girl from earlier yells, grabbing the attention from not only the boy, but the other teens too. Weirdly enough.. you don't see Gold. "Oh my god, it's the troublesome trio" Felicia exclaims, making an annoyed face.

"Blueberry bitch, depressed boy, and knife girl, three in one!" She continues, making the two of her friends laugh. Knife girl? Word spreads around fast.. shoot. "What are you going to do? Cry for us to stop??" That sounds very targeted. You glance to Funneh, who has her eyes narrowed at them. "Shut up Felicia, what I'm more interested in is why the HELL you're picking on a kid" she asks bluntly, upset over the whole crying thing.

"What the hell did that kid even do to you? Huh?" Funneh continues, as the boy runs into the arms of his friend. You motion for them to leave, they nod a thank you as they run back into the trees. "Well that kid was being nosy- that's one thing! We're just here to hang, what? You're gonna take this spot too?" Spot? What the hell are they talking about? "Can a kid just play in peace?" The blonde boy clicks his tongue in annoyance.

"Out of everything, this was our spot first? I found it" Funneh mumbles, sticking her tongue out. This.. has nothing to do with the kid anymore. "Just go away Funneh! We don't give a shit for a crying babbling baby!" Funneh clenches her fists at this, she only cried once, and this was the treatment she gets? Where was Gold? The girl said she was part of this too..

"Well.. we're not leaving till you either apologise to them, or get the hell out!" Funneh makes it worse. Draco sighs at this. "Well.. I'm not interested in saying sorry to stupid children.. and I don't think the rest are either!" Prince exclaims, motioning to the girls beside her. "Whatever, Gold- look at these idiots trying to drive us away from our spot! Isn't it lame?" Felicia asks, turning behind her- towards a girl leaning on the pier's post on the ground, phone in hand. She glances up at you then back at her phone. She doesn't seem interested..

"For the last time- it isn't yours!.. we used to hang out all the time here, didn't we Gold?" Funneh asks, towards her friend that she now noticed. Gold makes a face at this, without breaking contact with her phone. "Hey watch it dude-" Prince exclaims, while shoving Funneh a few steps back. He's always gets so physical, it's really annoying.. Draco scoffs at this.

"Don't talk to her, it's not like she'd like to talk to a crybaby like you.. who loves publicly humiliating people!" He exclaims, a smirk on his face. They're really using that fact to their advantage.. but it wasn't all Funneh's fault.. it wasn't. "Hey- back off! No need to get physical" Draco claims, shoving Prince away. "I'll mess you up, bitch.. and I won't hold back this time" Prince says, clenching his teeth. "They're clearly asking for a fight, why hold back?" Brittney adds. Prince finds this as a sign of approval.

"..Hm well.. don't mind if I DO!" He yells, hurling his fist into Draco's stomach. He immediately winces in pain as he falls to the ground. "!" You back away for a bit in shock. "Draco!" Funneh yells, searching for something in her pocket. Draco kicks the other boy in his stomach as he gets up, slamming his fist into Prince's eye, sending him a few steps back. Felicia and Brittney are cheering in the background, while Gold doesn't even bat an eye..
"BITCH MOVE!" Funneh yells, shoving Draco away. She sprays something into Prince's face, sending him backwards. "WHAT THE HELL??" He exclaims, backing away- trying to get the string out of his face. "UGH IT'S IN MY MOUTH" The two girls stop cheering in confusion, as Gold looks up. Funneh runs to the two girls as she sprays silly string onto them, startling them. "WHA- AREN'T THESE THINGS BANNED?!? WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GET THIS?!?" Felicia yells, startled. Gold stares, trying to process the situation. Her face turns white, as she stands up with her hands out- in a panicked state.

"You little-" Prince mutters, pulling Funneh back from her collar. Draco runs up to him, pulling him from his neck, sending him to the ground. Draco chuckles as he kicks the hell out of the dude, the silly string startled Prince so much- he can't defend himself! Hah! What a baby..

"Where the fuck did you get that?" Gold asks, literally shaking in place. "What? Want it?" Funneh asks, shaking the can with a sinister smile on her face. "No thank you" she exclaims, bending down to hold onto her bat- Funneh kicks it away, sending it tumbling towards you- who have been standing there in shock. Where the hell did she get another can? Was she hiding it?

"Ugh you're insane! Gag.." Brittney gags, holding her mouth shut. "God- I think I inhaled some.." "Ugh whatever! Let's just head somewhere else, these bitches obviously don't want to leave us alone.." Felicia exclaims, in a mocking like manner. Prince gets up from the ground, after Draco got bored of kicking him. "Ugh.. I'll get you for this" he whispers to Draco, as he gets up and walks towards his friends. Both Felicia and Prince walk towards the trees, ready to leave as Brittney follows them- she turns towards Gold, who's kinda frozen in place.

"Hey uh.. you coming, Gold?" She asks, her mouth still covered with her hand. "..Yeah.. just uh.. give me a minute.." Brittney hums in reply, as she pushes her two friends through the trees.

Funneh shakes her can once again, as she sprays the excess onto the ground. "Ah, I finished the can.. such a waste too" Funneh mumbles, as she throws the can behind her. She'll pick it up later, right now she just threw it behind for dramatic effect. Gold stares at Funneh in disbelief, in anger- she shoves Funneh away from her. She catches her balance, as she looks at Gold.

You walk a few steps closer, reaching where Draco is standing. Gold clenches her teeth, as she stares at the three of you with pure rage. You could see frustrated tears forming her eyes. "Okay dude, I'm sorry for threatening you with silly string, it won't happen again" Funneh apologizes, obviously not getting why Gold was upset.

She grips her hair in anger, "why.. do you guys keep coming back?" She asks, a voice more quieter than you imagined for the situation right now. "Why won't you three just leave me alone?!?!" She yells, now exactly like how you imagined. "I'm sorry if bullying kids were you past time hobby or something but you shouldn't.. you know, bully" Draco says, his hands in his pockets. Gold turns to him in anger, "I wasn't even bullying the kid! It was them?? Did you SEE me do anything to the kid?? I wasn't even holding my stupid bat!!" She exclaims, pointing to the bat you're holding.

".. but.. what if you.. I don't know.. they're your friends!" Funneh exclaims, unsure on what to say. Gold has a point. "You should've tried to stop them if you were so-" "and you!- what the hell do you even want?? If it's about your dumb photo album then.. FOR THE LAST TIME, I DONT HAVE IT" Gold yells, changing the focus onto Draco, who just scoffs at this, maybe he won't tell her for now.. "AND THAT IMPLIES TO FUNNEH AS WELL" Funneh eyes widen at this, she's such a liar.. a horrible one at that.

"As if I didn't see you throw it in the trash yesterday" "HUH- YOU WHAT?" Gold asks, a startled look on her face. "You.. uh.. it wasn't-" "I gave it back to its owner already, so it's all good" Funneh shrugs as Gold stares at her in disgust. "You.. dug through my trash?" She asks, "you dug through her trash?" Draco repeats.. did Funneh not tell him? ".. That's besides the point, just.. hm.." Funneh sighs, everyone stays silent for a bit.

"..What happened huh? Look at us, all fighting.. we're friends.. maybe we should-" "USED to, Funneh.. keyword; USED to be friends" Gold corrects, "something that I'm regretting now.." Gold mumbles, loud enoug

h though for all three of you to hear. "Gold-" "What is it huh? Why am I being treated as if I'm the bully?? Have you ever just.. PAYED attention to yourself for a minute?? You're just as messed up as I am!!" Gold continues, laughing stressfully.

She points towards Funneh, "WHEN RAINBOW DIED, YOU NEVER TALKED TO ME EVEN ONCE WHEN YOU CAME BACK TO SCHOOL" She yells, "YOU AVOIDED ME LIKE THE PLAGUE AS YOU JUST.. MOVED ON.. TO NEW FRIENDS, WHILE LEAVING ME ALONE WITH MY MOURNING THAT I WAS TOO YOUNG TO EVEN HANDLE WITH MYSELF" She points towards Draco next, "YOU HAVE NO SHAME. SCRIBBLING ALL OVER RAINBOWS FACE LIKE THAT- ALL THOSE MEMORIES WOULD'VE BEEN GONE IF I HADN'T WENT TO YOUR HOUSE THAT DAY.. THEN YOU DARE WASTE ALL THESE MONTHS TRYING TO GET IT BACK.. WHO KNOWS, YOU MIGHT TRY TO BURN THOSE PICTURES NEXT-" She then turns to you, angry tears streaming down her face.

"...and you.. after that stupid burial, I never saw your stupid face after that" she mumbles, walking up to you. You try to get out of her reach, by stepping back towards the pier that Gold was standing by earlier. "..You could just.. leave us all like that, and act as if nothing ever happened? You just.. abandoned all of us like that!!" You step back a few more steps.. she's scaring you, you're scared.. "Gold- stop it!" Draco yells, yet he doesn't dare to move closer towards the two of you. You walk onto the pier in hopes to get away from the mad woman.

"...I know I'm supposed to be the oldest, but that really hurt you know? When my parents don't even love me and with my older sister figure gone.. where was I supposed to go? You were all supposed to be there for me.. YOU WERE ALL SUPPOSED TO BE THERE FOR ME" She repeats. You're at the edge of the pier as Gold luckily stops, she rubs her eyes as she whimpers to herself. ".. Gold I-" Funneh gets cut off by Gold screaming, probably a sign for Funneh to shut up. Gold..

The four of you stay silent for a bit, as the only sounds you could hear where the whimpers of your yellow eyed friend. What happened..? What do you do when someone's crying? ..you hug them.. right? That's what you should do.. In this type of situation, a hug would be the greatest choice.. that's what Rainbow would do anyways. You reach your arms out to your friend.. she's upset. She's sad and it will all go away with a hug-

"GET AWAY FROM ME-"
