..Not Again.. : Betrayal
Part 5, No ownin' Ib just yet nope.
_::Mary::
Even I hadn't expected this, so many dolls. Well this makes things soo much more simple. I picked up one of the dolls. "Awwh, aren't these things the cutest Ib? " She looked terrified. "How can something like that be cute?"
_::Garry::
I focused on Ib, trying to ignore all of those dolls, throwing away what was in my way. And when I got through she actually grabbed around me hiding...And crying. What happened Ib? I just heard a scream. "These..dolls... Giant blue thing...Mary...red rose petals... me..." Ahh, she really did seem scared. Ugh, mabye it would help to throw all the dolls into the photo and cover it? And where's Ib's parents? They should of heard her scream.
_::Ib::
Since when was sleeping dangerous? Well, if I had to answear, I'd say since now. Once I opened my eyes and when I did there was dolls all over the dolls with that smile, and a split second from I saw them till one of them jumped onto my bed, and I couldn't hold myself and then of course I had to scream. Garry and Mary rushed in, and both of them seemed surprised.
And then I could see something change in Garry's eyes, from surprise to dislike and hate, ut compared to Mary he went towards me, and tried to comfort me. But at this time I just regret that I bought that portrait. Still, when he sat beside me it gave me comfort that he were close. But I really didn't want Mary or the dolls in my room. "Can we.. move these dolls?"I tried to sound normal, no idea about how it turned out for the two others, they nodded, both helping to place them into the portrait. Now, I didn't want Mary inside, but I guess there were no other choice. "I … simply had a nightmare, I dreamt about being chased by those dolls, and some bigger ones.
They just wanted to play... but after a while there came mannequin heads, all filled with blood. Crying blood. And then I saw myself.. my nine year old me. And Mary..clinging to my arm..nono, not my arm.. Garry's. She was smiling. Seeing me almost dead..."
Mary seemed frightened about this. "I wouldn't want you dead! You're a friend, aren't you?" What about these dolls? How did they come in?
"Probably by the portrait. Seems like I might have been standing there like a seal, sealing off an exit and entrance."
_::Mary::
If she keeps having more dreams like that I'll never become a friend to her. And can never figure out how to become a real person. Why is it that everything I want gets ruined? Somehow, always it gets ruined. I only want a normal life with normal people. Noone seems to really care about me. Garry always talks to Ib. Noone talks to me except for Tattle. But Tattle have been so silent these days. Everyone leaves me somewhen, "Do both of you think I am mean?" I needed to ask, I wanted to hear the answear.
And that question seemed to shock them both. "It was only a nightmare, and... you haven't done anything bad yet." Ib! Mabye I should... NO I'm getting so soft. "You wont get through me with tears. Not after what happened before, Mary." I somehow knew he'd say that. And I guess he had a reason to too. I mean.. He still remembers me like that, to them the first time. But I... I guess I overreacted. When he figured out I wasn't ..human.
_::Garry::
How can she ask that when she knows what I'll answear. How dare she ask that to Ib when she don't remember what happened. She keeps being unfair and so sneaky. I bet she placed the dolls there somehow. But being like that, she's a kid, with a kid's mind, but it is still so... Alright Where's my rose!? I knew I had it, I know it's still linked to my life, where is it?! Not in one of the pockets for my coat, nowhere- Mary, of course.
"Alright, Mary, please give that rose back. I'd like that rose back..now. " "Huh? What? Oh, this thing? But I want it so much myself. It got such pretty petals. I could take the petals?" No way, she knows what that would do to me! "Mary, it's Garry's rose, it's rude to steal things, that's also not how you make friends. It seem special to Garry." Ib...why?
_::Mary::
Ib...why? I thought we were friends. And she tells me all of that. I want this rose myself! Anyway what they say, I want it.
"No! I want this rose, it's pretty!" I took the covering off, and the dolls jumped to all around the room again. And Ib looked terrified, and Garry just shocked. "Mary..enough. Why can't we make this a calm and easy conversation?" Why? WHY!? Because they want to do it the hard way.
_::Ib::
...What's with all the glass being destroyed? I tried to ignore the dolls, making it so I can see what was happening outside.
And all I saw was … Portraits, moving. "Why..is this happening?!" Mary getting angry can't of caused this mess! "Somehow, Guertena dosen't seem to be done in this world just yet. It seems." I could barely hear Garry whisper that for himself.
Mary stood on the other side of me, shocked. Friends! And then she opened the window and ran to them. She seemed happy. But I really didn't want this.
_::Garry::
Why is it that I have to unlock the worst of things almost always? Now Mary was on the loose, and we seemed to be all alone.
Ib? "Hey, Ib? Where are you going?" I need to see if my parents are here, they ...we have had such a noisy convo and they havent reacted one bit. " Made sense that she was worried. "I'll go with you." She nodded. And when we got to their room... More. Headless. Statues. Gosh is it never gonna end? But I couldn't see anyone in the bed or anything.
Obviously.. this seemed familiar, atleast for me. "Except for the fact that we're in your house, this is almost what happened in the gallery the first time, three years ago." "Ib, do you know anywhere without any kind fo decoration? " She seemed to wonder why I asked that, "we need somewhere, so I can just explain you what seem to be going on now, and let you know more." AHH Alright that hurt.. What can of...Mary. I need that rose back and that fast.
_::Mary::
I really didn't mean to drop that rose, but I was having so much fun playing with my new friends. They were walking and..they needed some comfort too, they were complaining about how much they had to stand still in this world. I thought that was only drawings?
Obviously I had it wrong. I remember seeing Ib and Garry dipping their roses in water when they lost a petal or two. Was there any nearby? Hmmm... There's some! Time to dip it in water. Oooh, that felt weird! But when I turned around, none of my friends was there. There was only this giant doll which kept holding me a bit too tightly. And I could feel that was gradually breaking. It Hurt...
I might of never been real, but I could feel pain, and this was almost the worst, but it was also the nicest pleasure, mabye I'd be reborn real? That would have been nice. GYAAAAAAAAAAAH! … Garry.. Ib... I'm sorry, I couldn't be much of a friend, mabye I can help you all later? Sometime? And I won't ever trust these dolls anywhere. Tattle, if you can hear my voice... support Garry and Ib!
