Winter's POV:

Wilbur sighed and looked at me.

"I honestly have no idea what just happened.." he said, not looking me in the eyes. I felt my heart break a little.

Looks I'm not getting answers.

My words tumbled out of my mouth before I could stop them.

"Why am I so weak, Wil?" tears welled in my eyes. Wilbur got off his chair and kneeled before me.

"Winter, look at me." I tilted my chin up slightly. "You are not weak, you are one of the strongest people I've ever met." He looked straight into my eyes.

"If anything, I'm the coward here!" He said with a laugh. "I'm holding an election for power!"

He looked at the ground.

"You know what your fighting for," he said, not meeting my eyes. "And you're fighting harder than anyone else."

He pulled you into a quick hug.

"Come on, let's go eat." He mumbled into your shoulder.

--later that day--

I gawked at my nephew as he stood up.

What does he mean he has a party?

Fundy had just stated he was also running in the election, with Niki as his partner.

My brow was knitted in worry. Wilbur was glaring at his son. Fundy walked on to the podium and sat down, glaring right back.

"Eh hem. Shall we continue the endorsements?" Wilbur asked, sending a final glare at Fundy before looking at the crowd — if you call it that.

"For POG2020, our final endorsement is Jschlatt!" My eyes widened slightly.

Schlatt, huh...

Schlatt walked on to the stage.

(I'm too lazy to research what happens)

"You know what? I'm gonna start my own party!" Schlatt almost yelled.

Both Wilbur and Tommy looked taken aback by this sudden remark.

"Schlatt2020!" Schlatt announced.

"The voting will go live tonight, with 4 parties of POG2020, SWAG2020, Coconut2020 and Schlatt2020." Wil said, looking more stressed than ever.

"Thank you for coming."

I stood up and walked to Wilbur.

"Winter, we need to talk," he said, pinching the bridge of his nose. "You too, Tommy."
