Phil-

Before Tubbo could even sit down I heard the a bleep for multiple phones around the house. Why did we all get a notification at the same time? I scan my eyes around the room looking for my phone, but before I see it Wilbur gasps.

'Woah, um dad? I just got a notification about... we'll just come and see.' Techno also looked shocked as he read whatever had been sent to him. I looked at Wilburs phone. It was a news article.

The headline being: Two people male and female found murdered at *insert random location name*

'You don't think it's...' Wilbur trailed off looking at Tubbo.

Below the article there was a picture of the two people before their deaths. I zoomed in on them so only their picture could be seen. 'Hey Tubbo are these people your parents?' I asked him praying his answer would be no.

But as I showed him the picture his eyes lit up. 'MUM AND DAD!' He said happily. 'How did you know?' He asked.

'Oh it's okay don't worry about that.' I said, trying not to show my emotions. 'Why don't you and Tommy go watch Tv upstairs?'

After the two of them left I turned to Wilbur and Techno.
'This is awful.' I said.
Both of them nodded solemnly in agreement.
'Should we tell him or?' Techno asked.

Before I could answer I heard a scream from upstairs.
Wilbur looked at me horrified before running upstairs me and Techno following.

'What's wrong are you oka-' Wilbur stopped. On the Tv was the news. The words murder and couple spread across the Tv with photos and news reporters.

Tubbo scream again. Sobbing. He feel too the ground. I held him against me. He was uncontrollably shaking.
'Turn off the Tv QUICKLY.' I shouted.

The three boys scrambled to turn it off. Tubbo cried for ages. I just sat there doing my best to comfort him. The boys doing the same. Wilbur tried singing which quieted his sobs for a little while.

All of a sudden Tubbo sat up. 'I-I'm gonna get a drink.' He said. He then got up and left.

'Shall I go help him?' Tommy asked
'No, let him have a moment on his own.'

Tubbo-

I don't believe it. It just can't be real.

A million thoughts rushed through my head. I suddenly had a thought, it crept up on me taking ahold of all my rational thoughts.

What if I went to where they died. I could see for myself. I could say... goodbye.

Before I left I grabbed a phone from on the side it wasn't mine, it was Phils old one. He'd mentioned it before. I hoped he wouldn't be mad.

As I left the house into the cold darkness, I wondered if this was a good idea. But I couldn't get my mind to change. So I carried on walking. I had absolutely no idea where I was going. I checked the phones maps. It would be a really long walk. But I need to know.

I walked through the rain. My fingers felt like they were going to fall off and my body was uncontrollably shaking.

Third person (back at the house)

'He's been down there for like 10 minutes dad. Should we go check he's okay.' Wilbur said
'Yeah okay good idea. Will, why don't you go? I don't want us all going I think it might overwhelm him.' He said.

Wilbur headed downstairs trying to pull himself together before talking to Tubbo. He looked around the kitchen. Tubbo wasn't there.
'That's weird.' He muttered.

'Tubbo?' He said raising his voice a little in concern.

But no answer followed. After looking around the rooms downstairs he concluded that Tubbo wasn't there.

'DAD HE'S NOT DOWN HERE!' He shouted a wave of worry creeping in his veins.

Phil, Techno and Tommy ran downstairs quickly checking again in the other rooms.

'He really isn't here.' Tommy said worriedly, 'You don't think he...' Tommy gulped, 'ran away.'

'I guess he must have done, perhaps he went to see if his parents really are dead.' Techno said.

'We should go look for him!' Wilbur said, 'He's probably scared plus it's freezing out there and it's raining and he doesn't have a coat!'
