The Supernatural, Overcrowded,Dangerous Orphanage of Fate Forest

Chapter 6: Before the Blue Moon

Chapter Text

Cyrus woke up,covered in medical plasters and bandages. He got up,sitting at the edge of the bed,his left calf still salty about last night escapade. He bandage it how well he could. Well,the best he could do was twist some cloth around it,hoping it isn't broke or something. He could asked for some help from Luna,but as soon as he entered the castle,he turned back to monster-racism and run away from her,lamely.

Not wanting to meet any other killing monster,he decided to spend this day in his room,planning another way to escape this mad house. However,with the time distorsion,and the few alternatives to keep himself entertained, Cyrus got bored insanely fast.

He messed and rearranged his few pieces of clothing,played with a ball he found under the bed,looked out the window,played any game he knew he could alone,just for at the end to spend the noon spread on the bed,still feeling a tingling sensation from the cut received by the lizard girl.

Suddenly,he heard from his right:

"Hello!"

As soon as he turned the head,he screamed like a toddler picked by his parents from the playground. The upper part of the ghost girl was in his room,while the rest was probably on the other side of the wall she was passing through.

"Sorry!" she said,raising her hands in defensive gesture and entering fully Cyrus room,now flying in the air. "I didn't mean to scare you!"

Cyrus closed his mouth,regaining his calm:

"You didn't scared me,I just... Saw something. Are these rooms sound proof?"

"Yes! Well,mine is! And Sadie. Probably for when we shout in sleep."

Cyrus just had to hope no one heard his scream. He said:

"Why the f--- are you here?"

"Well,I observed you didn't left your room this morning and I thought I should check-"

"I don't need a spoiled girl that has no other thing than to spy on others to invade my  privacy."

Soon,her face converted into a sad one, looking like a toddler just told she won't have chocolate. White tears started flowing from her tiny eyes as she made sobbing noise. Cyrus,not wanting to make her cry in his room,said:

"Geez,calm down,I was only joking!"

The ghost girl stopped tearing,her mouth drooling a bit ectoplasm,as she asked:

"Promise?"

"Yeah,yeah,promise."

"Pinky promise?"

"No way,I hate that-"

She instantly turned back to crying mode.

"Fine,fine,pinky promise!"

Her face lighten up and she went on to hug him,but passed through the bed and Cyrus,giving him a chill through the body.

"Brrrrr... I feel my tongue in my stomach..."

Fionna looked at him as her lower half was into the bed,passing.

"Um... That's my bed." Pointed Cyrus.

"Oh,sorry!" she said,raising her legs and taking a similar position to Cyrus,though she floated a few centimeters above the blanket.

Cyrus didn't mention it and said:

"I'm sure the others mon- girls told you not to pass through people rooms."

"Sorry... I just can't help it!"

"Okay,but it's my room and I don't like it!" Cyrus snapped,even though he didn't fully consider this his room.

Fionna looked down,a bit hurt,which moved Cyrus a bit. He sighed and said:

"Just... Knock before you enter,ok? If ghosts can do that."

Fionna face lighten up and she went for another hug,but Cyrus raised his hands,stating:

"I dont want another frosty on my stomach, you...um... Fio-"

"Fionna! Fionna Christine!"

"Fionna... So... Your a ghost. How... Is it like?"
