 Hey guys, so here is chap 2. So...enjoy? Ig. Also, this over 80 pages in Google docs.

Two days had passed. Laff was still in there, having not a clue on what he should do to get out. He was still thinking about what Socks said. "You want to get out?" a voice said. Laff looked up quickly. He saw no one there. "What?" Laff wondered aloud. "I said, you want to get out?" Laff now knew he heard something. But he didn't recognize it. "I don't know. What do you think?" Laff wasn't sure whether to trust the voice or not. "I need you Laff. You understand what needs to be done." Suddenly, a man appeared out of nowhere. "What!" Laff yelped. The man had dark blue skin, almost black, eyes a yellowish green. "You know what to do, but not the ability to do it. You need some help." Then, a yellowish green vine came from the man's hand and grabbed onto Laff's own hand. "It will be easier if you don't move," he said. Then a strange feeling filled Laff. It felt as if something were going into him. He was still too shocked to talk or move. Then the feeling faded, and the vine disappeared. "Wha...What did you do?" Laff stammered. "I just gave you power. Simple focus, and you will be able to do unimaginable things." Then the man disappeared. "Wait!" Laff said, but it was too late. Laff had no idea what to do. Or who the heck that man was! All he said was focus. Laff wasn't sure, but decided to listen. He closed his eyes and started focusing. Then the same feeling happened again. He opened them, and almost had a heart attack. A yellowish green ball was in his hand. It disappeared after he saw it. He was terrified. He just saw a strange man, and now strange things were happening to him! He took a deep breath, and focused again. When he saw the ball again, he didn't freak out as much. "Now what?" he muttered to himself. The ball faded slowly, not fast like last time. He didn't know what to do. He just put his back to the wall. He was just sitting there when he heard someone. TBH. But he wasn't talking to Laff, more like himself. Laff was confused. Why was TBH not talking to him, but right there? He then suddenly realized, it was his thoughts. He could hear TBH's thoughts! He realized that if that man gave him a strange ability, maybe it can be used for something. He focused on TBH's thoughts, not caring about them. When he finally achieved his goal, he smiled. Socks never would expect this. He realized he had a second chance.

TBH and Woolfster were working on repairing the village. "Almost done!" TBH sighed. Ever since Laff controlled him, he had been feeling more tired than usual. But that wouldn't stop him from fixing the village. "Well, that doesn't mean the rest of the village is done." Woolfster said. "Yeah. Still can't believe he nuked it." He wanted Laff to just be his friend again. He missed his old friend. "There, I just need the glass." TBH was about to get it when he got a sudden and painful headache. "Ugh." He groaned. "You good?" Woolfster asked. "No. Just got a really painful headache." TBH sat down. This was new to him. He never had headaches like this before. "Well, it's nice to see you again." TBH froze. He must have been imagining. "No, you're not imagining. This is real." How did he know that?! "TB...What are you doing?" Woolfster asked slowly. "What?" TBH asked, then saw his hand moving, with sword in hand. "WHAT THE HECK?!" TBH yelped. "What is going on?" Woolfster asked. "I...I don't know. Just...just RUN!" He swung his sword at him, but Woolfster ducked just in time. "It's Laff! I can hear him in my head somehow!" TBH tried to explain. His body was acting by itself. He had no control! "What do you mean? Laff isn't here!" Woolfster asked, still dodging the sword. "Well, enough fighting. Let's meet face-to-face now" Suddenly, he started running to the gulag. "TB!" Woolfster said, and started running toward him. TBH had no idea what to do. He tried to stop himself, but he couldn't. When he got up to the gulag, he placed a TNT down, and lit it. He then felt his body relax, and found he could move to his will. He ran toward Woolfster, but the explosion knocked him down. His head was heavy, and the world was spinning. Then, he felt himself being wrapped up in something. Whatever it was, it felt weird, like energy. He tried to break free, but then he heard a voice above him. "Well, that was very interesting to watch." He looked up and saw Laff. "How did you..." TBH was speechless. "Let's just say, I had some help." Laff said. He picked TBH up, and turned to Woolfster, who was standing there, shocked by what he saw. "I'll be seeing you soon, Woolfster." Laff said. A yellowish green oval came up behind him. He pushed TBH into it and followed. The oval disappeared, and Laff and TBH were nowhere to be seen.
