TW: Mentions of murder, Mentions of death, Mentions of blood, Crying, Jumping out a window, Let me know if I need to add more

{Remy's POV}

Patton standing over papa's body..... With a knife...

I nearly screamed. Nearly.

I quietly crept into my room, hoping he didn't see me.

(Little did I know, he did.)

I opened the window. I looked down. 'Doesn't look like a far drop.'

I turned around. I packed some stuff in a bag, like my clothes, toothbrush, brush, the necessities.

I heard footsteps coming towards my door. They weren't normal walking ones, they were full-on stomping.

I scrambled to get my stuff and get out. I almost left. Almost.

I turned around and saw Remus' bear plushie, that I have been sleeping with, and Roman's doll.

I quickly ran to grab them. I then heard my door, it was going bust down any minute.

I ran to the window. I sat at the window sill and swung my legs over the edge. My door was nearly broken down.

I jumped.

I don't know how long it took, but I eventually touched the ground.

I heard Patton yell.

"Remy!! Get Back here!!"

I didn't look back, I kept running, and running and running. I didn't stop until I reached my Patton's friend's house/Co-owner of the restaurant/technically my uncle.

I knocked on the door hastily.

He opened it.

"Wha- Remy? What are yo--"

He didn't get to finish, as I had cut him off.

"Uncle Janus *huff* I *Pant* Patton-- Papa," I said

"Remy, take a few deep breaths and come inside. When we get in there, you can tell me." Janus said.

I nodded. I entered the house, trying to collect my breath.

After I caught my breath. I started to explain.

"Patton, I saw Patton standing over Papa's body. He killed him!" I started to tear up as the memory keeps repeating itself like a record player.

"He WHAT!?!" Janus screamed. I flinched at that.

He noticed it, his gaze became softer. He opened his arms to invite me for a hug.

Of course, I accepted it. I was crying my eyes out.

Janus just stood there, telling me that "it will be okay" or "You're gonna be okay"

I knew those were lies. It won't be okay because I broke my family. I won't be okay because I'm broken. I broke when I lost my siblings and I saw Papa dead. Patton is most likely looking for me. When he finds me, he'll kill Uncle Janus, then drag me by my hair, then kill me.

"U-Uncle Janus?" I stuttered.

"Hm?" He hummed.

"Where's Virgil?" I questioned. He stopped his soothing hand motion. Wrong move.

I stayed still, afraid that he'll hit me like Patton did. And then throw me out. And-- Wait, what was that noise? Was that? Sniffling?!

"Oh, Remy sweetie, you didn't hear, did you? Virgil went missing, and then police later discovered blood that matched his...." I froze. No way. My childhood best friend can't be dead.

"He- He was confirmed to be dead. They said he was murdered." Janus then broke down crying. So I tightened my grip.
 We stayed in that embrace for what felt like forever. We then let go. He led me to a bedroom.
"You can stay in *hic* in there," He said.
I nodded and walked in. He closed the door and I was left alone with my thoughts.
I felt tired,(For once) so I decided I should try to get some sleep.
I laid down and felt my eyelids getting heavy as I felt my consciousness get taken away.

End, For now.
