~Survival~

~Chapter Twenty-One~

The next morning, everyone eats and decides to leave the apartment. When they got outside, they were struck by a chilling breeze. "Brr..brisk out much, huh?" says Carol as she wraps her arms around her body.

Suddenly, they heard slight groaning and picked up the pace. When they were about five blocks, at least, from the apartment, they stopped to catch some air. However, their happiness soon faded after hearing the unholy groaning again.

"WHO ARE YOU?! SHOW YOURSELF!" exclaims Sarv as she turns into her demon form, despite being in public. They were lucky no-one was really outside. Suddenly, a limbless and eyeless teenager come out and floats in front of them, staring blankly.

"Wha..?" says Kapi, in utter shock. "Damn. That's too scary..*bzzzt* even for me.." admits KB as he wraps a protective arm around QT and gets his blades out in case. "What..? Were you the person at the pizzareia that was groaning and asking for help?" asks Sarv as she reverts back to normal and walks closer to Gold.

Gold nods. "Yes. I want to at least regain my sanity or emotions. Because I know damn well I can't get my limbs back." he says. "Well, actually, you-" explains Ruv, but gets shut up by Sarv covering his mouth.

"What?" asks Gold, blankly staring at Ruv. "Well, you could artificial limbs!" says CJ, finishing Ruv's sentence. "What does..ar..tificial..mean..?" asks Gold again, trying to understand what they're saying. "It means you can get robot arms or legs." says Kapi.

Gold shakes his head. "I'd rather be limbless than walk around with robot parts, sorry..it just seems like too much and also very expensive." he says. KB rolls his eyes and scoffs, knowing the part about it being 'too much'.

"Well, maybe we can help!" exclaims Cherry happily. All the others nod. "Yeah! We can teach what it feels like to love, and be sad, and be happy, and-" says Tanya, but get cut-off by Cyber scoffing. "Okay, we get it." they say.

"Wait, what do you mean by sanity? Why would you want your sanity back?" asks Wolfie. "Because it would probably help me understand my POV of the world better and maybe even help me understand the world as a whole." answers Gold.

"Well, now that we know he ain't gonna kill us, why don't we get going before freeze to death..?" mutters Andy. Everyone nods and tell Gold to follow them, which he does.

-----------------------------------------------------

After about four of walking (or floating in Gold's case), they finally reach a nice clearing and decided to settle down for a bit. "Okay, let's work on emotions first!" exclaims Eliza. Everyone nodded, as that would be a bit easier.

About three minutes have passed and Gold finally felt joy for once in ten years. "Wow. That was fun!" he exclaims as Plague and Cherry sit down, legs aching. "Well..glad you enjoyed it.." growls Plague in an almost annoyed voice.

Gold looked confused as to why Plague sounded like that, but shrugged it off. ABout ten more minutes were put into this, and it seemed to work. Gold had regained happiness, sadness, disgust, fear, anger, confusion, protectiveness, being cocky, and a general sense of being proud.

"Okay! Now, we need to help you with your sanity." says Winter as he sighs slightly. "How are gonna do that..?" asks Cyber, confused. "Make him extremely pissed?" suggests Selever. Everyone seemed on board with it, even Gold himself.

"Has anyone noticed that he has five Pokeballs on his belt?" asks Agoti as he points at the brown belt around Gold's waist. "Ooh! Someone can challenge him to a Pokemon battle!" exclaims Yukichi.

Everyone nods. 

--------------------------------------------------------

After the battle thing and somewhat bringing back Gold's sense of sanity, they decided to get going when all of a sudden, they heard a thump. "WHO THE..hell.." exclaims BF as he starts to drift off to sleep.

Almost everyone was hit with a sleep bomb. Some had managed to escape, but most were put to sleep.

"Sir..we finally got them.."
