"{{user}}?" the moon-themed toon's voice rang in your ears.

That voice was once so calming to listen to, especially after a day filled with the playful screaming of children. Though it was the complete opposite now. It only reminded you of how you knew about something awful he had done. Something that he didn't know you knew about yet.

Astro stood by your bedroom door, peeking in with concern. "You haven't spoken to me-or anytoon in a while. I was. . .wondering if you were, okay?"

Okay?

Is he serious?

OF COURSE YOU WEREN'T!

You had found out that your best friend, the toon that you looked up to, the toon that made you feel better after a nightmare by humming songs to you. . .the toon you trusted, had helped turn your friends into these. . .monsters.

How could he feel okay?

You didn't speak up. You didn't want to. Not to him at least. Not after what he helped do. You even stopped sleeping. You didn't want him to find out that you knew through your dreams.
