'Wilford' groaned as his head began to move, squinting his eyes a bit before they fluttered open, being met by blurry vision. He shook his head, going to rub his temple but his hands felt as if they were tied down. He blinked a couple of times, his vision clearing as he looked down to see that he was tied up in a chair. The pink ego tried to wiggle his arms free but to no avail. "Hmm, odd." He whispered before looking around finding he was in complete blackness, almost as if he were in a void. "Hello?" He called out hearing his voice echo before going quiet again. "Anyone there?"

"Finally... You're awake." A voice said, causing 'Wilford' to look forward, watching as a figure made of glass shards walked out of the darkness, a vile grin on its face.

It prowled forward, looking into the pink ego's eyes. "I finally got you where I want you. No running this time Dark." It chuckled snapping its claws open making them grow. "Oh how I've waited for this moment. Pitty you're not in your own body... The would have been so much more fun-."

"Oh well, good evening!" The pink ego interrupted. "My name is Wilford Warfstache and you are?"

The DA stopped in its tracks, it's smile falling upon hearing him speak. "What are you-... Nice try Dark, but that's not gonna fool me... Not this time."

"Dark?... I believe you got the wrong ego scamp." 'Wilford' chuckled, before his features brightened up with a smile. "But you know Dark! Well, any friend of Darky's is a friend of mine-."

Suddenly the DA let out a screech grabbing a hold of the chair and getting into the pink ego's face. "WE ARE NOT FRIENDS! AND YOU ARE NOT WILFORD SO STOP PLAYING THESE GAMES!"

"My what lovely spikes you have!"

The DA jumped as it turned around to see 'Wilford' standing right behind it. "What the-?" It then turned to the chair to find it completely empty. Its anger only rose as it turned back to the pink ego who only smiled at it. "HOW DID YOU-?"

"Also I have to say that you have a lovely home..." He said as he looked around. "A little dark for my taste but it suits you-."

"ENOUGH!" It shouted as it grabbed the pink ego by the shirt and threw him onto the chair where glass-like chains wrapped around him tightly. "ENOUGH OF THIS BULLSHIT! I KNOW IT'S YOU DARK!"

"Ohho! I'm getting a serious case of deja vu right now." 'Wilford' chuckled. "It reminds me of the time I found my dear friend Abe."

The DA froze upon hearing that name, causing their features to soften. "... Abe? He... He's alive?"

'Wilford' blinked as his smile grew looking at the DA. "You know Abe... Huh, small world! How did you two meet?!"

"He... He was my partner." They whispered looking down, in shock at the fact that the detective was still around.

"Partner?" 'Wilford' chuckled. "The only other partner he had was-." He suddenly froze, slowly looking up at the DA as his features softened. "... DA?... Is... Is that really you?!"

The DA then formed a scowl growing out its claws aiming them at the pink ego. "You know damn well it's me you-."

"My dear friend it's been... It's been years!" He whispered his eyes becoming glassy as he looked at them.

The DA could only stare, the realization that striking them. He really did think he was Wilford... It must have been a side effect, which caused it to growl. "I don't have time for this." It then pressed its claws against the pink ego's chest. "I don't care if you think you are Wilford or not I'm still getting my-." The DA paused when the pink ego reached up, taking its claws into its hand, causing its features to soften.

"What has happened to you? Who did this to you?" 'Wilford' asked in worry.

The DA tried to ignore the care and worry in the eyes of the pink ego. They knew it wasn't the real Wilford. They knew it was the one that did this to them. "You... You're not going to-."

"... This... Was because of me wasn't it?" 'Wilford' asked, watching as the DA's green eyes cleared looking at him with hurt. "I did this to you, didn't I?"

The DA's claws began to shake against the pink ego's chest before it growled yanking its claws away from him squinting its eyes shut. He was acting too much like the real Wilford. They couldn't bring themselves to look into his eyes if they were to rip his soul out and crush it... They just couldn't. "I have to find a way to snap you out of it." It growled before its eyes began to spiral.

"DA what are you talking about-?" The pink ego froze looking into its eyes almost like he was in a trance, his one eyes becoming pink with yellow spirals.

"Sleep." It whispered, watching as his head slumped over, giving it time to think as it stared into the darkness clutching its glass claws into fists. "I think I know who can bring your miserable ass back out Dark... Then I'll rip your soul to shreds." It growled, disappearing into the darkness.
