He ran more and more with the two following after him, it was like a police chase but on foot, Techno closer behind than Philza because Philza couldn't run for the life of him.

"RANBOO COME BACK!" Philza yelled, almost out of breath.

Techno finally closed in on Ranboo, tackling him to the ground trying to restrain him. 

"Kid, calm the fuck down!" Techno said, "You're acting like a fricking child!"

Ranboo still crying and trying to get out of Techno's grasp started yelping like a helpless child, like somebody would come help him, like he knew somebody would come help him.

Suddenly from around the corner Niki came out, and saw Techno trying to bring him back to his house. Seems a bit incriminating, hm?

"Techno! Put him down, you're hurting him!" She quietly yelled. 

Techno looked up, seeing Niki standing there looking at them, Phil slowly coming behind him.

"You.. guys... run too fast," he said while panting, "Hey, why's Niki here?"

She stared, looking at the confused Phil.

"You condone this?!" She questioned.

"The kid ran away right as he woke up, he needs to rest. He was asleep for a good 3 days, Niki! Don't you understand?"

Ranboo looked up, tears in his eyes and stared right at Niki, hoping she would help him.

"Fine, I'll help you take him back." She mumbled.

Ranboo started trying to kick his way out before finally giving up and going with them, for half of the way.

Techno finally just dragging him, he got up and starting running again. 

"RANBOO GOD DAMN IT!" Techno screamed.

He ran and ran leaving no hints of where he went off to. He didn't intend on coming back, ever, and if he did he'd be in big trouble anyway. He couldn't stop thinking about what was written in his memory book. He was trapped inside his head like a never ending maze and he was stuck there until some hero came to save him.

He stopped staring back into the snow filled paths, seeing a pink figure in the snow, going the wrong way. He was okay. For now at least.

He kept flipping through the pages of his book, some pages torn out and some glued in. He didn't remember the handwriting on the pages but they said somethin special was put in somebody's tea and.. The other details were scratched out.

Was, was he going to poison somebody?

He panicked more as he thought about it, killing somebody. What the heck was he thinking when he wrote that? Was he on something? The writing wasn't his, but to similar to be sure.

He kept flipping until he found a page written by Dream.

It wrote:

Hey buddie, I know you haven't seen me in a while but I hope we can meet up again sometime. I really miss you and I think we make a really great team.

-Dream

"TECHNO! HE'S OVER HERE-" and then he couldn't hear.

Everything disappeared. He was in his own world now. He couldn't hear, or see anybody. Just the faint and incoherent screams of Phil and Niki.

He started walking, seeing if he could find somebody, anybody.

Was this the end? Was he dying? Could he never go back?

He laid on the floor. He was dead, wasn't he.? He looked up, around nothing. All black, and these white looking columns which looked like they came straight out of heaven. Or hell, couldn't really tell since he wasn't really focused on them. The sky was a really dark blue and instead of the stars being white, they were black. Tiny specs of what looked like ash hanging in the sky.

He decided to look around, if he were dead, at least this place was pretty cool.

His backpack still sat on his back, but he was too lazy to check if anything was in it.

A doorway appeared and he took a gaze around and opened the door. Beautiful mountains surrounded the inside of wherever the door led to. Then, everything turned to night in the door. Suddenly, black. Fire broke out and he could hear the screams of people, so horrifying. He couldn't tell who's screams they were, but he singled 2 out. Techno and Phil. He banged on the seemingly invisible wall who separated them and started crying out their names.

He would always be traumatized by this. The fate of his friends, his.. friends.

He reached in his back pack to see only a compass. A lodestone compass. He decided to follow it, leading him around the door and into the darkness again.

Soon enough Ranboo was falling into the darkness that engulfed him, leaving him defenseless and attacking his panicked state until it crumbled. He cried out again, hoping somebody could help. Somebody could save him.

He felt like he was in Techno's arms again except no warmth was holding him and restraining him. Only coldness. Darkness. And most of all, loneliness took it's grab at him, and was winning.

He wanted to die. Right here, right now.
