she put her left arm around his neck "thank you… again"

"It's the least i can do." He murmured. He started up the staircase slow, making sure she could catch up. When they reached the top her let her go in the doorway of the office. "If you need anything at all just use the intercom, hun."
"heh, ok." she walked over to her cot still grasping her shoulder.
He trotted down the stairs and took a second glance up at the office. He turned and headed down to the bakery after getting some stuff for lasagna in the frozen food section.
"I will not stop till you are drowning in the blood of your loved ones." The eerie words were hissed in his ears. His head exploded in a headache, nearly knocking him over.
He leaned against the reflective glass, grimacing in pain. He opened his eye and saw a portion of it covered in blue. No… In the reflection Sycore stood, his head tilted crazily. He spun around to face him but he was gone.
Seraph could see the monitor and how Tom had this explosive headache "damn… i… i hope he can fight off this demon…"
Cradling his head in one hand, he picked up the things he dropped on the floor. He stumbled to the bakery where they had a full kitchen. He snuck a free sample cookie and got to work. Sycore's threats echoing in his ringing ears. He blocked them out with various song lyrics.
Eyes, in the dead still water. Tried, but it pushed back hard-er. Cauterised, and atrophied, this is my unbecoming.
And there's a silencing as the machine arrives here. I feel it pulling me, I feel the past that's died here.
He started singing a mixture of all the songs, quite melodious if he said so himself. He soon finished the meal and made his way back to Seraph.
"You ok Tom? I saw you fall…" she asked with concern in her eyes
"Yeah, just got a huge migraine for some reason. I'm okay now." He set the food on the table along with some paper plates and forks. (Yaaaaas forks) "Tanoshī." He gestured the food.
she smiled "thanks again… for the third time now." she sat down and politely began to eat.
"It's nothing." He replied. "You feeling any better?" He asked.
she rolled her shoulder "gonna be sore for the next few days…. but i'll be fine." god i can feel it grinding against other bones…
"You sure? Do you need any pain reliever or anything?" He asked.
"I might, but it can wait." she took another bite of the meal "this is amazing."
"Uhm, thanks." He muttered. It wasnt cooked that well and was rushed. I glanced everything out… its probably not that good…
yay fucking LOVE crunchy noodles. she nodded her head to a song she remembered
Tom turned his head from her and looked out the window. He blinked and the world distorted around him, grey and black, the light was barely anywhere to be seen. He turned and looked at Seraph. Her body ozed blood as she leaned backward in the chair unnaturally, her eyes white and shaking. He recoiled with a shriek and blinked. It was gone.
Seraph look at at tom with fear and she rushed to him is probably isn't helping anything he is seeing… "Tom?" she asked with panic and fear rich in her voice.
"I'm fine sorry." He mumbled, putting his hand on his eye. "Just saw something."
"No shit Sherlock." she glanced back at her chair and sighed "what did you see?"
He sighed. "Something pretty disturbing…" The image flashed in his mind. "J-just… so much darkness… everything was distorted…"
"weird… well… as long as it's over now…" she sat back down now how do i help him?
"Y-yeah."
"It's far from over, silly boy." He felt Sycore's claws running along his neck, probing at the tender flesh. He ignored it with a slight wince.
"Want some water or something?" He asked.
She pulled out a bag of drinks "i grabbed a few while you were passed out earlier, you want one?" she asked pulling out a monster for herself (sponsored by Monster Energy Drink…. i wish)
"Sure." He replied. Tom took one and sat down, looking off at the wall. He turned to Seraph. "Do you think we'll ever get out of this realm or whatever this is?"
She nodded "We will, i know it." but… we might be split up… she opened her monster and took a drink "What'll be the first thing you do when you get out?"
He shrugged. "Go see my cat i guess… my sister doesn't like him so i doubt she fed him. Probably kicked him out of the house." He took a sip of the spicy liquid.
she shrugged "well, who knows how time passes here? a few seconds could have gone by or years could have passed."
He set his drink down. "Yeah…" He furrowed his brow. "Would we look the same age or would we be older if it was a few years? This could be the key to immortality." Tom pondered.
"maybe… wow that got deep quick." she continued to eat her meal.
"Yeah…" Immortality…
What? That came out of nowhere….I don't want immortality… He glanced at her food. "I'm going to go get something, ill be back." He told Seraph as he ran to fix his sudden sweet tooth. He grabbed some chocolate brownies and started snacking on them on the way back.
