Chapter Text
You were laying on your bed in your room, that's covered with ur favorite posters of bands and anime, games that u enjoy.
Scrolling on ur phone on tiktok.. some game peaked your interest "hmm-." you muttered tiredly "that sounds .. like a pretty cool game, I think I should try it." you yawn and you roll over to your side putting ur phone on the bed side and grabbing ur laptop and putting on ur lap, pressing the button to turn it on and letting it boot up
You logined in hoping your laptop doesn't give you a blue screen, you clicked onto itch.io typing the game in and pressing on the link that leads to The Freak Circus game page you pressed download as you wait for it to download you unpatiently looked at the warning, endings blah blah while waiting for the downloading bar to complete.
Once it did, you booted it up on your 3 year old laptop that acted like it's in the 1990's. It was very laggy... but you still managed to play the game.. you soon after felt very tired when you reached the part of when the mc went up to the huge mirror ( Columbina's mirror ) in middle you finished Columbina's story and you decided when the mc ran out of the tent in fear, you'll go to bed.
You turned off your laptop closing it gently, putting it off to the side on the bedside and plug in the charger.
You laid on your back to look up at the ceiling until you slowly fell asleep.. and you started dreaming, not a nightmare nor a good dream.
The Dream.
You.. woke up in ur dream well regain consciousness, you looked around.. in your dream to see your surrounds and it appears to be a blank white room and then your eye catch something, an.... figure??
None other the figure it's Her, Columbina.
Columbina turned to you as her wings fluttered and twitched, like.. she was happy?
"!!" You jumped a bit when she suddenly grabbed your hand, clasping her hands around yours.. she smiled.. it was... creepy... like she was... -
Columbina spoke, her tone was happy. "My dear, After... all this time you're here, finally here!" She looked like she wanted to jump in your arms right then. You were confused, it felt.. strangely weird, but you realized this was just a dream.
You try speak to her cause she cut you off before you even got to speak "My beloved... I'm so glad you're here! I've been waiting for you!" She basically hugs you really tightly and her wings are flapping fast and.. you awkwardly hugged her back. You thought to yourself you knew her character but.. not that much so you weren't really expecting her to act like this and you spoke "Uhm, what do you mean Col-" She interrupted you "No nono! Don't call me that dear, Call me Bina or even better my lovee orr" She went on ramble slipping out on what petnames or nicknames you should call her, rubbing her face on your cheek.. it felt nice, but you still couldn't shake of the feeling that .. it weirdly feels real? Like.. she was there, like.. THERE THERE...??
Columbi- Bina said "My Love" She let go of you and back off a inch then she spoke again, her tone was sadder "I don't have much time due to you waking up but be careful on what you find torrmorow."
You were confused and when you were about to say something, you woke up .. you rubbed your eyes trying to adjust to the darkness and you rolled onto your side and you yoinked your phone from the bedside table and turned it on getting flashbanged in the progress you looked at the time by squinting... 6:30am, you groan tiredly you didn't have work in like... 3 hours? But then you thought to yourself about the dream and mutters to yourself ".. Why did Columbina say that?..." you shrugged it off, you didn't give a crap really.. actually you were tired too so you drift of to sleep.
Nothing happen this time when you were sleeping but something definitely changed you were going to find out soon.
