Hey! So, I'm sorry about the lack of updates, I have and do want to update! I have lots I want to do with Leo and the others, this one is technically the only full chapter left, I'm working on chapter fourteen currently, but I have hit a bit of a writers block, not sure what to do next and whatnot, I do have plans to get somewhere, but it's the in-between scenes that are stumping me. But don't worry! I don't plan on giving up. I just need something slightly different for a little bit of time.
Annnnnd that is also the reason for this update, I am working on another fic currently. It takes place in the same universe as this one, and is...technically happening at the same time.
I need to work on the chapter some more before releasing it, and I hope to get some cover art on it. But it is basically FNAF Sister Location, Leo is...not the main character of it, but he will come in later on. The main character is someone you guys haven't met yet. If you are interested I'd love for you to check it out! I hope to do them at the same time, updates will probably play on and off each other, like when one is updating the other is on a break and visa versa.
A lot of the reason for this is because I've been watching a lot of sister location stuff and have felt super inspired about it, so this is what happens as a result.
Now for reviews!
SilentAmbiance: Aw! I am so, so glad to hear that! That makes me so happy! Seeing your reviews always brightenes my day! You are always so kind so thank you so much! As for the secret, well you would be surprised what kind of secrets Leo is keeping ;). I'm glad you liked the part about Jamie! I had originally planned for it to be normal but then I was like, hey, why not? And so that happened. And yeah, I see your point, I can't promise a day by day, because that would probably become repetitive and not so fun to read, but I will take it a bit slower through the month. And thank you! That is very sweet, I don't plan on taking time off from this one, but as stated above I'm a bit stuck so that's why I'm going to be working a bit on the other one while my subconscious works on this one! So yeah, anyways, thank you so much for the review! You don't know how much I love seeing what you guys think on the characters!
I hope you enjoy the chapter!
Chapter Thirteen
Some answers...but more questions...
Leo was pacing. Well as much as he could pace with his crutch and busted leg. The bots watched him curiously, Bonnie and Chica were playing a game of gold fish but had stopped to watch the guard.
"Lad ya alrigh' there?" The crimson bot asked from where he was sitting on one of the tables.
The guard let out a breath coming to a halt, he was lucky that tonight they weren't being fussy about him walking around. He was pretty sure he would smack them in the head with a chair if they did.
"...she is coming soon. Her and that weirdo. But you guys are going to have to stay still, pretend to be regular robots or something...I don't know, but I don't know what they will do if they find out you are this sentient..." he trailed, his eyes flickering over the four of them.
"Would...they hurt us?" Chica asked quietly, and Leo took a breath rubbing his face.
"...I don't know Chi..." he trailed and took a deep breath. "You guys...whoever built you...they made you incredibly sophisticated. Not even computers are as advanced as you are. Somehow you can comprehend and feel emotions. Your strength is immeasurable, and yet you can hold and handle things with incredible gentleness." He took a breath, "we just...have to be careful. Clearly she knows about you guys moving at night, and the whole...stuffing thing." At that the bots shifted in place. Leo took another breath and collapsed back into a chair.
"Okay, we will be sure not to move. We appreciate your concern Leo. It's not often that humans regard us as more than just machines." Freddy said softly, the guard looked up at him and nodded before running his working hand through his hair. It was knotted and in some places likely matted. He knew his hair was overgrown...he probably should get it cut, the last time it was cut was when the wicked hair dresser in jail had given him a buzz cut.
Leo shuddered at the memory and took a deep breath. He had never been happier that his hair grew fast than in these past few months.
He lingered his hand in his hair taking a moment longer to appreciate the return of his locks...only to pull his hand away and grimace. He probably needed to wash his hair again…
"Thanks Freddy." The guard finally breathed out and the animatronic nodded in response.
Bonnie's ears suddenly twitched and he looked to the door, "they are here..." he trailed quietly, everyone looked to the doors tensely. Leo snapped out of it first and got up, ignoring how he wobbled.
"Alright, everyone back in your spots. Except you Foxy, you stay out here." The crimson bot nodded and hopped to his feet before going still like only a robot could. The other three climbed back on stage and took positions. Just as Bonnie got his guitar into place there was a knock on the door.
Leo looked over to reveal the sight of both Joey and Acid, he couldn't help but take a moment to stare at the strange man. He had glowsticks duct taped to his face to look like glasses. The guard took a deep breath and hobbled over. He unlocked the door easily but had to quickly step aside as the mechanic came in not caring if he was in the way. Acid followed and waved at Leo, the guard gave a slight nod in return. But his eyes soon fell upon Joey again as the woman set a backpack down at the table.
With a breath the night guard locked the door again before going over to where she was. He idly noted that Acid was trying to turn on one of the arcade games, but he honestly couldn't give a care.
"How did he walk?" Joey suddenly asked, as if she sensed Leo's approach.
"I uh...he didn't, the cleaners brought him in here." He lied taking a seat by the human and animatronic.
"Leo it would make things a lot easier on both of us if you stopped lying to me." The woman scolded as she looked over all her tools. Leo blinked and adjusted in his seat before taking a breath.
"Okay, say I stopped lying to you. What then?" His eyes flickered over her face, but he could garner nothing from her expression.
"Then I would be better informed of the situation and be able to help better." Her dark eyes flickered up to him and he quickly found he couldn't hold her gaze for long.
Those brown orbs were so intense it made him curl in on himself.
"Or you might take advantage of your position and try to take them." He ground out, forcing himself to look into her eyes. She stared back at him, and the inkling of familiarity ate at him, but try as he might he couldn't figure out who she was.
"That is just something you are gonna have to figure out then Leo. Can you put your trust in me to fix your friends, or are you going to be so paranoid I end up getting nothing accomplished?" She countered, and Leo bit the inside of his cheek.
"I'm not paranoid, and of course I trust you to do your job. But I don't have to tell you anything more than what you need to know." He ground out, and she stared at him for a bit longer before turning to face the fox who had been watching them with his one eye.
"I wonder if you remember me." The statement made Leo blink, was she talking to him or the bot?
She tilted her head gazing at the crimson bot.
"Though, probably not. It was a long time ago." Leo was only further confused by her words, he couldn't help but tense up automatically when she turned her attention back to him. "I have no intention of harming or removing these animatronics. I was brought in to fix them and that is what I'm going to do." At that Leo blinked, he opened his mouth to respond but the words died in his throat. What could he say? What would suffice? What could sound intimidating enough to scare this woman into not hurting them?
She sighed and turned to look at Foxy again, "tell me what is hurting you the most Foxy." She ordered lightly, the predators eye flickered over to Leo his eyebrow twitching upward a bit in a questioning manner.
Well. Nice job bot, it's too late to hide it now.
Leo could only sigh and nod rubbing his face.
Foxy's yellow eye fell back on Joey and he adjusted, breaking from his stiff position, "well lass, my joints have been giving me quite a few problems. Though if I'm being honest, I'm not terribly comfortable with all of this." The bot admitted the last part quietly.
Joey nodded and took a breath rubbing her face a bit, "look. I know that having a stranger look at and fix all your problems and weak points isn't the most ideal situation. I don't like that happening to me either. But I have nothing but respect for you beings. I find your designs incredible, and all I want to do is help as much as I can." The woman told them, and Leo shook his head amused.
"They prefer actions over words. I learned that the hard way." The last bit was grumbled.
"Leo is right, miss. We only have your words to go on, and frankly they aren't much." The bear agreed and Leo glanced back at him and smirked a bit.
That's right, she couldn't just jump in and get their trust automatically, Leo had to be beaten to a pulp in order for that to happen-
"I think she is tellin' the truth lads..." the fox trailed, his eye not leaving Joey. She offered a nod to him, and Leo couldn't help but whip to the animatronic.
"What do you mean you think she is telling the truth? You just met her!" He protested and Foxy glanced up at him before down at Joey again.
"I can't explain it ta ya Leo, but I don't believe she intends to harm us." the fox argued and Leo couldn't help but scowl a bit.
Now that just wasn't fair.
"See? Foxy agrees." Joey smirked at him, and Leo scowled back.
"Fine! Fine, if he agrees then go right ahead." He then pointed at her, "but if I so much as suspect you are going to hurt them, you are out of here faster than Foxy can say aye." With that Leo crossed his arms biting back a wince as a bit of pressure was put on his broken limb. She seemed to notice his pain despite this and smirked a bit in amusement before turning back to the red bot.
"HAHA! SUCK IT LOSERS!" Acid's strange voice caught all of their attention. He was in front of an arcade machine and Leo couldn't help but be a bit impressed at how fast he made it work.
It had taken two hours at the least for Leo and the bots to turn it on.
"Acid, quiet down. I have work to do." The woman chided and the mad looking man looked over before nodding and turning back to his game.
Leo let out a breath and rubbed his forehead tiredly. He couldn't wait till they were fixed so he didn't have to deal with these annoying and tall people anymore.
As three am rolled by, Leo found himself trapped in a game of memory. Somehow Chica had convinced him to play with her and Bonnie, but Leo honestly couldn't care to remember how that happened. Freddy was following Acid around, distrust written all over the bear bot. Even after Leo and Joey reassured him that they wouldn't let him do anything. Freddy wasn't having any of it. Acid, for all his flaws and oddities, didn't at all seem to mind the bear's presence, and instead the man explored the building and asked the bear all sorts of questions. Some of which the lead bot answered, but most of which he didn't.
Joey for her part was a quiet worker, Foxy was tense, but he allowed her to work. Sometimes one of his limbs would jerk, one of which nearly took Joey's head off, but just as Leo and the others were about to shout or grab her, the woman ducked automatically, causing the rebellious limb to fly harmlessly over her head.
Then she resumed work like nothing had happened.
Leo didn't trust it.
He didn't like her, he didn't like Acid. The guard was feeling territorial, and try as he might the feelings wouldn't go away. Here they were in his restaurant, messing and speaking with his bots.
Being so possessive was ridiculous and childish, but Leo didn't care.
He might as well have been not playing the game, he wasn't paying attention at all. The guard was watching Joey and Foxy, both were quiet, and Foxy seemed quite intent upon watching everything that Joey did to him.
The mechanic seemed to be working on loosening his joints, something that Leo hadn't even realized was a problem, but in retrospect. Foxy had always moved stiffer than the others.
"Leo!" The chicken's voice made him jump and turn to her, she had an eyebrow raised and he took a breath.
"What?"
"It's your turn." The hen reminded him gently, Leo blinked and looked down at the cards on the table. All of them were face down and the guard blinked as he tried to recall what they looked like when they were facing upward.
But he drew on a blank.
Hoping that luck was on his side he picked several cards...but none of them were a match. Taking a deep breath he turned them over again.
"What's up with you? Usually you beat us at all these." The avian asked and Leo took a deep breath rubbing his face.
"It's because of her isn't it?" The hare asked quietly, Leo glanced up at him, he was a bit too close for the guard's liking, but alas, he couldn't keep telling him to move away.
At this point, his apprehension was likely a bit overboard, the bunny still hadn't done anything to him. Leo should just forgive him and move on...and he...wanted to. But…
"Yeah." He was glad for the distraction and looked behind him and to the mechanic. "I don't understand why Foxy trusts her. I thought you guys didn't like adults." He turned back too them and both shrugged helplessly.
"We aren't very fond of her, so I don't know what's going on with Foxy." Chica admitted and Leo nodded with a breath glancing back at them again before returning to the game.
"Whoa! Does someone live out here!? That is so cool!" Acid's voice came from the kitchen this time and Leo stiffened up snapping his attention to the kitchen. The others did as well, but stiffened for other reasons.
"Wait, someone lives out there?" Bonnie asked quietly, but there was a lower tone to his voice then before.
"I...is...is there a problem with that?" Leo asked quietly, suddenly feeling small and glancing between the bots.
"Of course! We don't know what kind of creep is out there! That is way too close, what if they come in and try to take one of the kids!" Chica responded, aghast at the thought that he might think it okay.
"B...but what if they are harmless...and just can't get a place to stay?" The guard asked, watching their expressions.
"People who sleep behind a children's restaurant have no good intentions Leo." Freddy's voice made him tense up a bit for the first time in a few days. He sounded mad.
"Exactly!" The hare responded and Leo fidgeted in his seat.
"They do...they just...can't get a big enough paying job to afford a place..." The guard muttered.
"How do you know that?" The chicken asked, her brows furrowed as she watched their guard.
"...that's mine. I live outside of the restaurant." He muttered gazing down at his hands.
There was silence for a few moments.
"...why?" The rabbit's soft voice made Leo close his eyes and take a breath.
"I can't afford a place right now. With the door repairs still eating up my paycheck along with the hospital bills...I can't get an apartment." He confessed taking a deep breath and opening his eyes.
"...how long have you been sleeping outside?" the avian asked quietly. Leo also felt the eye of Foxy on him, but the red bot had yet to say anything.
"For as long as I've been working here...so about four months now." He muttered under his breath, everyone was quiet for a while.
"And you got all offended when I called you a hobo." The woman's voice made him stiffen and Leo took a hard breath. He sent her a side glare and adjusted in his seat.
"I am not a hobo. I have a job." He countered gritting his teeth a bit.
"Mmm, you also live just outside your job. So..." she shrugged, "if the shoe fits." At that he bit the inside of his cheek suppressing a scowl.
"Why don't you just sleep inside?" Chica asked, pulling his attention to her, which he was grateful for.
"...well, guess they may not let me keep the job if they know I'm homeless." He once again muttered, not at all liking the fact that he had to talk about this.
"Well then just don't let them know! You've kept it a secret this long!" Acid's voice made them turn to him.
"Yeah, I guess so. Manager's kinda an idiot so it shouldn't be that hard." The last part grumbled a bit, and Joey snorted behind him. He glanced back at her.
"Yeah, I figured that out." She then sat back and took a breath gazing at Foxy. "Okay, move your joints."
The red bot did as told, moving his elbows, wrists, fingers, knees and ankles. His eye widened and he looked at her.
"Lass, I don't think I've moved this well in years!" He got up and abruptly jumped from the ground and onto the table. Leo blinked, he was moving considerably more fluid.
"Don't push it, your parts are old, honestly we should replace your entire endoskeleton, but I can understand reluctance to do so." Joey advised, the fox stopped bending one of his knees fascinated and turned to look at her.
At what she said he slowly stood on both legs again and crossed his arms, taping his chin with his hook.
"I'd rather keep my current skeleton lass." He then enclosed his hand into a fist and pounded a bit at his chest, "it may be old and creaky, but it has lasted me a long time!" However, the action caused some dust to fall from his frame. He looked down at the circle of dust around his feet on the table.
Leo looked over at Bonnie when the hare made a sound that mimicked a distressed whine.
At first he figured it was because dust had fallen from his friend's body...but then Leo followed his gaze and found that the lagomorph was staring at the dust on the table.
...he didn't realize that Bonnie was such a clean freak.
"I understand, but it's going to require more time replacing the parts that need the most work." The mechanic said, and the bot nodded.
"Understood lass."
"Would anyone like anything? I've been working on my cooking skills again! It's been a long while since I have cooked for humans!" The avian suddenly spoke causing them all to look at her.
"I could go for some food." Joey responded with a shrug.
"Question, would you be willing to cook a chicken?" Acid asked, rubbing his chin thoughtfully and staring at the hen. She turned to him and tilted her head.
"Of course, what would be the problem with cooking chicken?" She asked innocently.
The humans stared at her a moment, but she and her fellow animatronics looked confused.
"...because you are a chick-...you know what? It really doesn't matter. I'm not hungry, Chica, but I'm sure the others would enjoy whatever you make." Leo said, she nodded and smiled before going to the kitchen. Leaving the others to descend into an awkward silence.
Leo had to excuse himself from the dining room for the exclusive reason that the food had smelled far too good. It wasn't something he wanted to do, not with Joey being around Foxy and doing who knows what. But the smells of the room made him uncomfortable.
Freddy had also promised he wouldn't let anything happen to their pirate comrade anyways, and Leo doubted that the woman could hold her own against three animatronics. And that's only if she managed to disable Foxy.
He trusted that they could handle themselves.
At first he wandered around the restaurant for a bit, but then his leg started getting sore. The guard planned on going into the office, but for some reason his feet led him back to parts and services.
Which was stupid in and of itself, he should just go to his office. Not the creepy back room where so many people died.
Yet he found himself there all the same…
Leo felt a weight settle upon him as he entered the room, it was warm, an uncomfortable warm that much of the building shared, but it seemed extra stuffy in this room.
Stuffy. How morbidly ironic.
The room was small, and in a dark way Leo wondered what those nights had been like. Those poor guards...dragged in here, likely fighting and screaming…
Leo felt his stomach churn a bit. His eyes flickered over the beige carpet, and he could see where it was bleached and poorly painted a beige color atop the ruined carpet. He felt bile rise up a bit, that's where the blood was. When the suit slowly killed them...was it slow? Did they have time to think about their end before it came about? Could they feel everything? Did the bots...or children laugh? Did they watch them die? Or...did they just leave them to die alone?
The guard liked to think that he and the bots were on good terms now...and he of all people knew that he shouldn't judge them on their past…
But that could've been him.
Or...the very best scenario...he could've ended up like Mike...bound to a bed and chair for the rest of his life.
His eyes couldn't help but travel to his bandages, he had gotten injuries, he had gotten hurt. Sure, it would heal, sure it was a temporary problem in comparison…
Was he being stupid? Dwelling over things in the past?
...but was it really in the past?
What happened if he left? Would the bots treat this new guard like they treated him...or like they treated the others?
His hand went to his chest as an uncomfortable tightness blossomed in his chest. He rubbed it staring at one of those spare suits, did they all once have bodies in them? Did the suits that the bots now wore?
Leo knew he shouldn't be thinking about these things, he shouldn't be letting his thoughts spiral, he shouldn't even be in this room.
But here he was. In the room that so many people died, people's lives...names and histories...all lost within this room. How many families wondered what happened? How many wives stayed up at night wondering if their husband had left them? Not knowing what happened to them...Leo could see how it could happen.
He felt angry, but he couldn't be entirely sure who he was angry at. Was it the bots? The man behind it all? The corrupt company that gave these people shabby graves in the back and slapped the word accident over it all shoving their file in some deep archive never to be found again?
Who was he angry with?
...maybe them all.
If it wasn't for that man, none of this would've happened...but the bots were clearly intelligent enough to make their own choices...why hadn't they? Why had he been the first one? What made his life more valuable than all those who came before him?
Nothing.
There was no reason Leo should've been spared.
He was a hobo, he lived in an alley, he spent all his money on drugs. Leo was the scum of society, the type that everyone raised their eyebrows and looked down upon.
Leo, in the end...was nothing.
He was a blip in the timeline of history.
Nothing about him made him more important than those who died in this room. Leo did not consider himself remarkably clever, and he knew it was not all because of him that he was able to make it this long.
Mike. Whatever that man had done, whether it be stay the longest or somehow gain the bots sympathy. Leo wasn't naive enough to believe that it was only his wonderfully charming personality that won them over. No. He knew that Mike had done something to make them start looking at the guards differently.
"Many lives were lost here..." the voice of Acid made Leo jump and whip around as quick as he could with his crutch.
"...yeah." He finally said, before turning and looking at the room around him again.
"This whole place smells like death." The man continued stepping inside, Leo glanced up at him uneasily. His voice sounded different, ominous almost.
Though it was a rather morbid subject.
"Heh...yeah, they didn't do a very good job on cleaning that." The guard mumbled, his eyes flickering over the taller man who now stood next to him.
He seemed suddenly so put together...so sane…
"It's so interesting, watching your interactions with them. They almost seem...human." The once mad man looked down at him and Leo fidgeted under his gaze. Why did these people have such intimidating eyes?
"It's really neat isn't it?" the man continued, gazing down at Leo with what the guard would swear was a searching gaze.
"Y...yeah...yeah I guess so." He stammered, his own eyes searching over the man who almost seemed to loom over him.
"Leo? Are you in here?"
The guard had never been so relieved to hear the rabbit's voice.
Leo turned his attention to the door where Bonnie ducked under it, the hare glanced around the room, and stayed by the door.
"The...the others were asking for you." The purple bot continued quietly, his eyes landing on Acid who Leo just noticed moved from where he was to now crouching before one of the suits and gazing at it with his head tilted.
"Acid?" The guard asked quietly and the man suddenly jumped to his feet and spun around with a clap of his hands, all seriousness gone in his face.
"I think I saw a gumball in the other room! Best get it before the cockroaches do!" He exclaimed and suddenly took off, the rabbit had to move to the side lest they would have collided.
The human and bot stared after the man a moment before looking at each other...and then quickly looking away.
"I'm surprised they sent you in here." Leo muttered his eyes once again falling upon the death traps that lay there so innocently. Concealing their dangerous contents within.
"The others don't like coming in here. Especially Chica...and Freddy doesn't run errands." The lagomorph responded quietly and Leo shifted, putting more weight on his crutch than his good foot.
"And you are okay with it?" The question was quiet, but the hare would obviously be able to hear it.
"...I've always been better at distancing than Foxy and Chica."
"...so do you care? At all?" Leo knew he was crossing unspoken lines. He shouldn't, he should just walk out and leave the matter be. But try as he might, the last call from Buddy would not get out of his head. The fear...the fear that he had felt in those moments that he thought he was going to die.
"...I don't know." That response made Leo bristle and grit his teeth. He glanced back at him curling his good hand into a fist.
"What do you mean you don't know? How can you not know? Do you care that they might have had families? Children that will now grow up without their fathers? Wives who sleep in bed alone now? How can you not care about the countless lives you have taken?" He demanded, he found himself...shaking with rage. Where was all this anger coming from?
"Leo, you can't say for certain that they were innocent, they could've been just like him."
"Not everyone is evil Bonnie! I thought you would have figured that out by now!" The guard countered and the rabbit mimicked a breath and glanced to the side, looking both cross and in deep thought.
"But adults are bad, and bad people deserve to be punished." The rabbit insisted, and Leo grit his teeth. He hadn't actually realized this was what the hare had been thinking this whole time. The bot said he didn't want to kill Leo anymore...but why? If he so clearly distrusted adults...even now…
"Just because you say someone is bad doesn't make them bad! You don't know what they are going through! You don't know where they came from! This isn't punishment! This is cruelty!" he felt anger bubbling inside him like a fizzing soda so shaken it was about to pop it's top off. The rabbit looked at him and opened his mouth, but Leo wasn't done. "You...you don't get the right to decide who is good and who is bad!" He shouted, feeling himself trembling with pent up emotions.
"Then who will?! Who will punish those who need it!?" Bonnie demanded advancing a step forward, Leo was so mad he didn't even stumble back in retreat. His eyes were narrowed as he glared down the bot. "No one cares! No one will do anything!"
"YOU CAN'T JUST HURT PEOPLE BECAUSE YOU FEEL LIKE THEY DESERVE IT!" The guard shouted back, the rabbit gazed down at him with narrowed eyes looming over him like a massive shadow.
And suddenly…
It wasn't Bonnie.
Leo felt his body seize up with a strange cold and chilling feeling, he forced his eyes away from the looming figure and to the place around him, it was different. He wasn't in parts and services anymore.
He was in a bedroom.
A bedroom he didn't remember, it was dark, dreary, and despite Leo knowing it was a child's room. It looked nothing like one. There were no toys, there was hardly a bed. Paint was peeling from the walls, and the door could hardly be called that anymore.
Movement out of the corner of his eye forced him to look back at the looming figure, it wasn't Bonnie, not anymore. It was barely a shadow, barely a figure to make out. But it was there. Looming above him like a wave of darkness. A suffocating force that made him choke on the air that provided him life.
He vaguely realized he had stumbled back, but it was barely registered, especially when the dark shadow's hand rose up. A massive, imposing hand that Leo found struck him with a painful fear he couldn't explain. His breaths came out short as he stared at the hand that slowly grew closer to him.
Before he even had time to move again, a scream ripped from his throat. Cruel and harsh it ripped through his vocal cords, shredding them, he only caught his voice moments later, and spent the moments after trying to inhale enough air to replenish what he had lost. It took him far too long to realize he was now on his hands and knees. Heaving for breath, his good hand curled into a fist, holding him up as he hunched there like a three legged table.
He nearly let another scream escape when his body was shaken, but this one was easier to handle. Easier to control, and it remained contained as an unknown being shook him.
The bedroom setting seemed to fade out of reality as the parts and services room took control once more. Leo found himself on his hand and knees staring at one of those horrible painted spots on the carpet. His broken arm was clutched to his chest, as if some vain attempt to keep his heart from busting through his rib cage and out of his chest.
The breaths that came out of him could be best described as wheezes, through the loud wheezing and ringing in his ears, Leo could vaguely make out a voice speaking to him. But it was far away, like he had cotton balls in his ear canal. Everything felt far away, distant. Even the floor beneath him felt like it was miles away. The guard felt weightless, like there was no mass, and no pain to hold him down anymore.
And then it all came crashing down like an avalanche.
Pain rocketed through his system first, that caused him to gasp sharply and let out a whine, he couldn't even put in the effort to swear.
There was something fussy on his face, a hand perhaps? But hands weren't fussy…
The next, came the crushing weight of gravity. He nearly collapsed from his position, only just able to stay up because of his nearly non-existent muscles.
Then finally the sounds around him registered, someone was calling his name, but he couldn't place their voice. There was a hand on his face but it didn't feel like a hand, not a human one at least.
His tongue was once again lead within his mouth. The guard tried to speak, but all that came out was garbled words.
But Leo's thoughts were racing as he tried to figure out just what the $#$ that was…
I hope you guys enjoyed it! I hope to get the first chapter of the other one out soon!
What did you think of the whole situation with Leo panicking? What did you think of the new characters?
I'd love to hear what you think!
Thank you to all the new follows and favorites! I appreciate all your support!
