Ignore me and my brain during this chapter
We're running on 3ish hours of sleep......
I don't even feel the tiredness anymore. I'm just writing to give my brain something to do.

SB's POV:

3 nights.

For three nights I've gone with out sleep. And for some reason I was baking cookies.

"Dhayabsvsisjbdkshsnsnznzjs"

Tango's POV:

I heard what sounded like gibberish coming from the kitchen. When I walked in I found SB muttering to her self
Making random noises, while baking cookies.

"You good?"

"Never been better!"
"Self Care is for the weak!"

"SB you need sleep before you go insane."

"Sanity and normality are just figures of imagination created by people who fear idiots."
She laughed...

"Ok you're being delirious..."

"Did you know the bananas are berries and strawberries are not?"

"You are going to sleep."

"NoOo it's 2 in the afternoon!"

"I don't care! You need sleep!"

She just jumped on the counter t posing.
And I decided this was gonna need to take more drastic measures....

In the Chat:

<Tango> any one happen to have a tranquilizer dart?

<RentheDog> yeah....why?

<Tango>.... no reason......

<JoeHillsSays> that is suspiciously not specific

<ImpulseSV> Tango..... you can't tranquilize a child who hasn't slept........

<Tango> I Never said that.

<JoeHillsSays> YOU WERE PLANING ON TRANQUILIZING SB!?

<Xisuma> Better question Ren why do you have a tranquilizer dart?

<RentheDog> that is on a need to know basis.... and you do not need to know.

<Xisuma> I kinda do

<Docm77> Tango, have you tried chloroform?

<Docm77> because I have some if you need some...

<Tango>🤔

<JoeHillsSays> NO

<Xisuma> Doc why do you have chloroform!?

<ImpulseSV> TANGO NO

<Xisuma> Tango don't even think about it.

<Iskall85> Tango I would honestly use a combination of both... works on Ren.

<RentheDog> say what now?

<Welsknight> O_0

<JoeHillsSays> What is wrong with you people!?

<Welsknight> would you like some help there Tango?

<Tango> yes....

<Welsknight> ok be right over

I'm still trying to figure out how to get this gremlin to sleep.

"Ok SB, we can do this the easy way for the difficult way, it's your pick."

"The difficult way sounds fun." She smirked.

Wels arrived.

"So Tango what seems to be the problem?" Wels ask

" SB refuses to sleep and she's acting delirious..."

"Ahhhh ok. May I see this lil gremlin?"

"Sure she in the kitchen....."

Wels POV:

"Hi SB. Would you get down from the counter please?"

"No."

"Wrong answer!"

I scooped the child up by the legs and placed her over my shoulder, then walked out of the kitchen.

"We're gonna go for a walk." I said to Tango, who just looked confused.

She didn't have enough energy to fight, so she grunted with mild anger.
She kept mumbling things that didn't make any sense.

Once we were outside I set her down.

"Ya know SB, you can't stay awake for ever right? You really do need sleep."

"Yee"

"So why won't you sleep?"

"I physic wouldn't." She slurred
"No can."
"Sleeve no want."

She could not form a coherent sentence.

In the Chat:

< Welsknight> Tango I'm gonna bring her to stress to see if she has a potion or something. I'll bring her back in a bit.

<Tango> ok Lemme Know if she give you any problems.

<Welsknight> o7

"Walls"
"The cook in oven fire"
I had no clue as to what she was trying to say.
So I just looked at her confused.....

She pulled out her communicator

In the Chat:

<SharkBait> tooooonnnguuuuuu

<Tango> Huh?

<SharkBait> cooks in stove

<Tango> .........

<SharkBait> 🍪=🔥

<Welsknight> ohhhhhhhhhhh

<Tango> 👍

I understood what she was trying to say after that.

About 600 words.
