Chapter 13 (A/N AFTERWARDS)
Marie's POV
I still thought about my dream while helping Tobias maintain the animals. "Still thinking about the dream, Marie?" he asked, making me snap out of my trance.
"A little," I replied honestly, brushing the mane of Dusk, "It just weirded me out how terrifying the people were. The thing that scared me most was that guy was there. The guy that attacked you."
It stayed silent for a second before I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to see Tobias standing there, giving me a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, Marie," he reassured, patting my shoulder more, "It was just a nightmare from that day. You're probably still a little traumatized from that. Everything will be okay now. Please, stop crying now."
I didn't even realized that I was crying a little. I wiped my eyes and nodded, smiling. "Thanks, Toby," I thanked, earning a smile in return.
He nodded and gave me another smile before taking care of the other animals, leaving me alone. I continued to brush Dusk's mane, but I couldn't stop thinking about my dream. Why was that man there? I thought, Why did he know my name? Is he someone I knew? I have to find out more!
Jeff's POV
I looked at my hoodie in disbelief, anger rushing in my veins. I growled to myself as I shook my hoodie roughly, "Where the FUCK IS IT?"
I tore it apart and found nothing there, making me yell in anger. I yanked my door open and went to Ticci-Toby's room, kicking it down. Toby looked at me angrily. "The hell was that for, Jeff?" he asked.
I ran my fingers through my hair and looked at him. "The phone is gone."
His interest was quickly brought up. He put his hands on my shoulder and stared at me. "It's what?" he asked in disbelief, groaning when I nodded, putting his hands on his head, "We were so close. We almost had her. Where else could it be? No one knows about it!"
I shrugged, angry at my act. That's all I could do in this situation and I hated it with a passion. I kicked a hole in the wall and sat on Toby's bed, taking deep breaths. "She's gone," Toby mumbled in his hands, his voice breaking, "Marie's gone and there's nothing we can do about it."
I sighed and patted Toby's back, feeling his chest fall in defeat and tick a lot in stress. "Dude, come on," I urged, "We can't give up, man. Marie is probably worried and confused. We have to help her come back and prove she's alright and didn't do anything. Now, stop crying and get a grip."
Toby looked at at me. His goggles were holding the tears he had let go, staying on them. "Wow, way to make me feel better," he said sarcastically.
I raised my hands up defensively. "Sorry! I'm a killer, not a fucking therapist."
Toby chuckled a little, taking his goggles off and his mouthguard. His eyes were puffy and red from the tears, the tears dripping off the goggles since they were pooled. "You're right," he sniffed, wiping his face, "We're in too deep. We have to finish this and soon."
Ticci-Toby's POV
"That's right," Jeff said, standing up, "Now, you should take a bath, Toby. You look and stink like shit."
As Jeff left, I scratched my head and felt the grease in my hair since I haven't washed myself properly since Marie's disappearance. I got up and searched for clothes, finding a clean outfit in my drawer. I went to the bathroom and started to take a shower, the warm water washing away the stress I have in a way. As I stood there, I started thinking about the phone. Who else knows about Marie being alive? I asked myself repeatedly. Sally does, but she can't even lie to us without cracking in a swear or laugh. Who else-
My eyes widened at the sudden thought. There's one other person that knows about Marie. He's the bastard that found her. "Masky," I whispered to myself, quickly turning the water off and drying myself.
I put on my clothes and grabbed the knob when I felt that it wouldn't budge. I pushed the door and it still wouldn't move. It's not even locked! I banged on the door and yelled, "Anyone, get me out of here!"
I heard some shuffling and a familiar voice reply, "No can do, Toby. You have to stay there."
I glared at the door, hoping that son of a bitch feels it from the other side. "Masky! What the hell's gotten into you? When I get out, I'm going to kill you!"
It was silent for a minute before I heard, "Not before I kill you."
Then, I heard water running. I turned and saw the bathtub still having running water. I went to turn it off the see the knob broken off. This bathroom doesn't have any windows and the door was built to have no cracks. My eyes widened at the realization. He's going to drown me here...
