"Who...." Dazed, Peppa still grasped hard onto her box cutter, unaware of his next move. "State your business."

The man was wearing a stained blue plaid shirt under a brown hood jacket. Having messy black hair and a mustache. In hand having a nearly empty red wine bottle. Mumbling, he states, "I said I can help you with your problem," and walks closer to the bench.

"Stay back motherfucker, I have a weapon on me and not afraid to use it." Peppa threatened, pointing the blade in his direction. Taken aback, he takes a few steps back slowly, pulling his hands up. "I mean no harm, I just want t-" "Yeah yeah I know you want to 'help me', elaborate."

               The man goes silent, collecting his thoughts. "I know you, you're like... That one child TV star who was British or something," The pig raised an eyebrow. "And you got shat on your asshole fiancé right?" "Correct.." Peppa didn't even know his intentions were yet, nevertheless, gripping the blade towards him. "I can save your reput-" A phone rings in his pocket. "Give me a second."

Beep.
"Hi Sharon."
Angry shouting can be heard on the other side.
"Yeah I know I'm late-"
"I swear I'll come back home I'm just doing something real quick."
The shouting become furious screaming.
"Jesus Ok I get it."
He ends the call and puts the phone back into his pocket.

               "My wife wants back at the house. I could hide you in the barn and we'll discuss the plans in the morning."

               'Is this man actually batshit crazy? I don't even know what he was planning and he wants me to get in his car and hide me in a barn. Unbelievable. Unless..' Peppa was thinking back to those types of movies she watched where the main character gets helped by a high ranking figure and rising to the top.

               What chances could she take?

               "Aren't you too drunk to drive?" Peppa questions the man. The man slurred in a childish tone, "You can't tell me what to do!"

               He already had did several sharp turns and swerves on the road, which seemed like plain fields.

               Peppa wasn't paying attention to what he was saying most of the time. He kept changing the topic of his kids, his hemp farm, complaining about his wife, or just start sobbing about something that happened to him years ago. She eventually learned that his name was Randy Marsh, through his hysterical crying.

               "So, uh... What about you? Aren't you like still in contact with your family?" Peppa snapped back to reality. She contemplates if she should tell the truth or decide to not talk about it. On that thought of family, Peppa thinks back to last memory of her passed young brother George.

———————————————

It was 9 years ago, Peppa was 16, while George was 14. Peppa was in her room with with other girls; Rebecca, Candy, Zoë, and Whitney, messing around.

               The families were celebrating about the green light for season 7. Everyone else was either downstairs or outside. Every once and a while George and Richard would pop in and annoy the girls, but this time, George and Richard wanted Peppa and the other to go outside.

               Expecting it's time to cut the cake, Peppa leads the girls downstairs. She saw a few in the living room and kitchen conversing and chatting. Suzy and Freddy were talking in the living room, laughing during the time Peppa saw them that day, not thinking much about it.

               As soon as Peppa opens the front door, seeing the majority everyone, George and Richard go run off to hide under a table snickering. Suspicious, Peppa takes a few steps out from the door to inspect why, however something she didn't expect to see happened.

Out from behind the house came who was Daddy Pig in the most horrendous Barney costume, screaming. Peppa in surprise quickly snatches a fork and stabs at the eyes. Daddy pig screeches in agony, falling on his back, bringing the table George and Richard down with him. Richard was fast enough to run away before anything happened, however George was struck in fear, leading to his death.

Everyone who were still inside the house, came rushing out, soon to be horrified of the crime scene.

999 (because it's fucking England) was soon after called to the scene. Peppa was not charged for the accidental crime she committed, however had to be put in therapy due to her PSTD and guilt. Peppa showed signs to being absolutely terrified of anything relating to Barney, or someone dressing up as another animal in a costume, leading to both of her phobias.

Even after that her relationship with her parents was rocky, however even got worse after she was divorced after 5 years, and disowned her. Getting backlash from both sides, the both of them went bankrupt.

"Jesus.. Jesus fucking christ. That is.. so depressing. I'm so sorry." Peppa stopped spacing out. Had she said everything out loud?

Awkward silence filled the car the rest of the ride to the farm. "Y'know uh, my son has met God, Jesus, and the devil, and ManBearPig on certain situations.. That was pretty weird."

"What the actual fuck."
