I sit up in my bed, calm and quiet. I stand and walk into the kitchen to see everyone around the dinner table. I roll my eyes, thinking of it as some sort of family meeting to see what's for dinner.

I grab a drink from the fridge and turn to walk away but Patton stops me. "Anxiety, come here." The usual happy-go-lucky voice did not echo from his mouth like always. But a certain urgency, fear?

I do as told and go to the table, sitting down in a chair.

"Okay, Thomas is going to have a nightmare tonight, we need to be ready. Stay inside your rooms and-"

"Hey, guys!" Calls a 'familiar' voice. We all turn around to see Benny, one of Thomas' friends, standing there doing jazz hands.

"Its not him, Patton. Don't freak out. Thomas is just daydreaming about him... Wait, what?" Patton squeals and runs to Benny, hugging him tightly.

"Thomas has a crush on Benny. Thomas has a crush on Benny." Patton sings. Creativity smiles but Logic doesn't. "Patton, stop. Its not him." Logic grabs his hand and freezes up slightly, letting him go immediately. He clears his throat, fixes his stance, and straightens his tie.

I chuckle and shake my head, knowing what's up. "Logan's got a crush." I cough to cover up the sentence. But Logan knew what I was saying. "Anxiety, are you okay? We need to get that cough checked out." He glares daggers at me as Patton worries over me. I laugh, running a hand through my hair.

"What's up?" 'Benny' asks, sitting at the table.

"Nothing. Go to Patton's room and eat his secret stash of sweets. There's a little vault in the corner. I think the code is 56426." I say, crossing my arms. (I wanna see if any of you can figure out what that code spells.)

Patton stares at me as Benny happily skips to Patton's room. I smile and Logan goes back to the plan.

"When the nightmare gets here, lock your doors and don't answer it for anyone. Unless its us. But we will give each other a code. And, obviously, we can't be alone. Horror movie logic." Logan says. We all nod.

"Patton, you'll be with Logic. Vergi- Verge and I will be in my room." I chuckle and give Roman a side smile, knowing that he knows Logan's secret as well.

"Our code name will be Logicality." Patton says, unknowing that he's making a certain someone very uncomfortable. Logan knows exactly what that means.

"Well, then. I guess ours will be Prinxiety." I say. Roman makes a choking sound and I chuckle.

Roman claps. "Alright, let's get to work." He snaps, and suddenly a sword appears in his hands. "Don't shoot each other for Christ's sake. Please?" He says. I chuckle, doing the same.

A rocket launcher appears in my hands. "Anxiety, are you kidding me? Do you want Thomas to die?!" Logan asks me. I sigh and the rocket launcher disappears. I decide to bring in a gun that I've seen in a cool video game.

The Lancer.

The gun appears in my hands and I'm careful not to touch the chainsaw.

Logic chooses a sniper rifle and Patton tries to think of a gun but all he could get were water guns. "How about this... Think of a gun that shoots fire. Like a dragon." Logan says, his voice calm.

Patton closes his eyes tight and finally a flame thrower appeared in his hands. He smiles down at it.

It looked like a regular water gun but the small bit at the end proved that it was, in fact, a flame thrower. I smile and nod, going to my room to grab my knives.

"Why do you need those?" Patton asks me.

"I've been practicing knife throwing for a while." I say, throwing a knife at Logan. He doesn't move and it flies past him, sticking into the wall behind him. He turns and sees it, turning back to me. He calmly walks over to me and tackles me to the ground.

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! YOU COULD'VE KILLED ME!" He screams, grabbing my shirt collar.

"But I didn't did I?" I ask, smiling at him. He stops for a moment but finally gets off of me, helping me up. I smile and dust myself off.

"Alright, let's get this show on the road."
