Later at around 12am, you and Regina come out of the tavern. Regina has you close. You ended up drunk. Not like the fun girl type of drunk, but the angry, upset and depressed that you needed to drink it up type of drunk. You stumble a bit and Regina supports you.

You say, "T-take me home. I'm... I'm tired." Regina says, "Come on, girl. You've had it rough, recently. You ended up with a deadly ghost owl whom you thought was caring." You say, "I-I doubt he loves me at all, anyways. I-I'm just... his key to this world... f-for him to you know... kill others." You hiccup. 

You cling to your best friend and she holds you close. You say, "F-fuck relationships. M-my aunt was right. W-when I was a younger girl... sh-she told me... love is a lie. It really is. F-fuck it all. I've faced crappy relationships before I met Barnaby... but HE deceived me the most! It's all... b-BULLSHIT!!" You stumble and Regina says, "Come on, (Y/N)." 

She walks you to your house. You both walked there, anyways. You both suddenly hear this, "Hey!" Regina looks over to see a teenage goat girl. Regina says, "Oh. Hey. What's up?" It's Billie. Billie says, "What's wrong with (Y/N)?" Regina says, "Wait. You know her?" Billie says, "Yeah. I live two houses down from her. I'm just a teenager, but we've been close." 

Regina says, "I'm Regina Spots." Billie says, "So, you're the Regina that called her, huh?" Regina nods and says, "Yeah... Care to help my drunken friend here home?" Billie says, "Not at all... (Y/N)?" You stumble and you groan. Billie says, "Oh man. You're really... drunk. No offense." 

You say, "N-none taken, hon. I... I'm tired and I'm sad. Fuck relationships! Down with all of them!" Billie has the sad look on her face. She looks at Regina and says, "Let's get her to her house." Regina agrees and they both take you to your house.

As they get you about thirty feet from your house, you suddenly feel dizzy. You say, "O-oh shit." They both look at you. Regina says, "Oh shit. Hey... g-girl. Don't even think about pu..." You drop to your knees and you put your hands on the ground. You lean down and you begin to throw up. Both Regina and Billie do a 'tss' expression. 

Regina says, "Ah, shit." You sigh and you spit out the remaining of your vomiting. They both help you up and Billie says, "(Y/N). Come on. You have to try and move forward. We've got you. Your house is just right over there." They take you to your house and they open the door. They bring you in and they get you to your room. Billie brings a bucket, just in case THAT happens again.

Regina lays you on your bed and Billie lays the bucket down near your bed. Regina sees this and says, "Good thinking, kid." Billie says, "This has happened to my mom at least three times. I've figured out the bucket thing while in your own room, so you don't have to leave the room." Regina says, "You're damn smart. Question." Billie says, "Yeah?" 

Regina asks, "Have you ever slipped any booze, yourself?" Billie says, "Um. No. I haven't." Regina says, "How old are you?" Billie says, "Fifteen." Regina says, "Oh, psh. Girlie, I was younger than you are now when I slipped myself my first booze. Smirnoff Ice. A wine cooler. I was twelve. I stole some out of my mom's fridge while she was out with my dad." 

You groan. Regina pulls the covers over you. Billie strokes your face and says, "Get some rest, okay?" You sigh and you smile. You say, "Y-you guys are so great. Th-thanks." Regina says, "I'll sleep on your couch for the night." Billie says, "I'm getting back home. Goodnight, guys." Regina says, "Goodnight, kid." 

You sigh and you say, "Billie. G-goodnight, hon. Regina... I have... extra covers... i-in my closet. The door in the hallway... straight ahead is th-the closet for blankets." Regina says, "Thanks, girlie." She and Billie walk out, but turn your light out before doing so, so you can sleep off the booze.

************************************************************

The next day, you're awake. You're getting over a hangover. You may be sobering up at the moment, but you're still not very happy. Since the whole incident with Barnaby, you haven't let out a single giggle. You'd only slightly smile from the support of your friends.

It's 3pm. Regina left the house to get something from the store and told you she'd be back, but that was three hours ago. You were wondering when she was going to come back. Maybe she decided to make a few other stops? You didn't know.

But since the whole incident, you didn't even eat a thing either. You still haven't today. You walk into your kitchen and you open the fridge door. You see a few bottles of beer in there. You say, "I just got over this hangover. I can't just... Ah, fuck it." You grab one and you close the fridge door.

You open the bottle of beer and you toss the cap aside. You put the bottle up to your lips and you take a big drink. You sigh and you say, "Again, I need it after that whole shit with Barnaby. I just can't get over it. I just... can't." 

You hear a tap on your living room window and you look over to see a note hanging up. You say, "What the hell is this, now?" You walk over and you see that the written part is taped on your side. It reads, "Are you looking for your dear friend, Regina? I've got news for you, my sweet... She's 'hanging' out at the park. P.S. Hoo hoo." You knew Barnaby left that note. You say, "The fuck does he mean by that?" You chug some of your beer and you put it down. You head out of your house.

You pace down the sidewalk and it turns into running. A few others outside see you with a questioning look. You didn't care, though. You were looking for your long-time best friend, Regina and what Barnaby meant by that note he left on your window.

You get to the park and you look around. You suddenly look over at the pavilion and you see something dangling. You say, "Wait a minute. What's..." You gasp and you run down there. You get there and you gasp in horror.

Turns out, it's Regina. She's hanging by a noose and she's got a few cuts down her arms. You quiver and you put your hands up to your mouth. You say, "Oh... O-oh god!" You put your hands down and you scream, "REGINA!! NOOOO!!" 

You back away and you fall back against a bench. You cough and you say, "O-OH MY GOD!!" You pant and you look around. You look down and you put your hands up to your face. You sob out of control. You look up and you yell, "Barnaby! You bastard!! How could you do this?!!" You break down and you sob.

You're unaware of Barnaby being nearby. He's on the roof of the pavilion and he's got his neck stretched down to look at you. He smirks and chuckles. He says, "Like I said my dear... Everyone you love and care about." He does that laugh slash hoot without you hearing him. He moves up and he takes off.
