Bladie blew a raspberry and stretched. "Guess we'll hafta find him then." Dav nodded. They both walked away from the wall but were attacked by rain the second they did. Bladie moved his wet hair up from his eyes and looked at Dav. ".....Maybe we should get some umbrellas first." Dav, again, nodded, this time his hair slopping over his face. He asked, "You have some at home?" Bladie confidently nodded and slid his bangs back across his head. "Yep! Two next to my front door. You gonna go back?" Dav head banged as a nod, flinging his hair back. Bladie laughed as Dav wiped stray hair strands out of their face.

Dav tapped around on their watch and teleported back home, Bladie waving and backing up against the brick wall. "...I think my head is rounder." A few minutes later, Dav returned with 2 umbrellas and again stumbled against the wall and waited for the effects to wear off. Bladie opened the umbrellas and handed the dark red one to Dav, keeping the black one. The two finally left from behind the building and started searching for Chris, however, their hopes were low because they had no idea where it'd be or where it lives.

after about 20 minutes of walking around and exploring the city, occasionally pointing at buildings from the series, they decided to give up and try again another time. As they stood on the sidewalk, Dav texting Chris saying he'll see him some other time, Bladie said he wanted to visit the Candy Club and get some candy. Dav nodded and clapped, and they both walked to the pink building. As they were walking, Dav stepped in a puddle of mud. It splashed and stained Dav's shoe and pant leg, causing them to exclaim and stop walking. Bladie pointed and laughed playfully. "Haha! You got mudded, hahahaha!" Dav blew a raspberry at him and they continued walking.

A while later, Dav and Bladie are leaving the Candy Club with off-brand candy. They go behind the building and decide to teleport back. They close their umbrellas and brace themselves, Bladie with his arm around Dav's shoulders as Dav taps the watch's screen. They teleport back to Bladie's place and fall back onto the couch, once again hit with the torturous effects of teleporting. "Never," Bladie breathes. "Again." The two look at each other, their heads leaning on the couch. "I am not....... teleporting again." Bladie looks back at his ceiling. "You can, I won't." Dav looks back at the ceiling as well. It was obvious that he could tolerate the nausea and dizziness a bit more than his friend.

Time passes, and Dav waves goodbye to Bladie as they walk down his porch steps. It's nighttime now as Dav rides their skateboard back home. They get lost in their thoughts. Why wasn't Chris answering them? Did something happen? Does it have a Worldtravel Watch too and did it teleport back to this world? Because contacts from one world are wiped if the phone's in another. Dav remembered something- When he went to text Chris asking if he was available, he noticed that Bladie was in his contacts unlike when Dav and Chris were exchanging numbers. They pulled their phone out and looked at their text messages, but didn't see Chris in them. They put their phone back away. Chris never left Spooky Month. If he did, his number would've disappeared unless he just didn't take his phone. He also could've been asleep or busy. Dav finally arrived to his apartment building and decided they'd ask Chris about some things next time they see each other.

Dav entered his apartment and sat on his couch. Bladie didn't want to teleport again, which meant he couldn't bring him to see Chris. But he also couldn't take a picture of him and show it to Bladie because the phone wipes all proof of being in another world. And Dav isn't very skilled artisticly- he could do a doodle, but it couldn't show what Chris REALLY looked like. So the only option left seemed to be bringing Chris out of Spooky Month and into this world. But Chris might be a character, so they could get in trouble. Dav sat in silence for a bit. They figured they'd just welcome whatever happens with open arms and it'll all work out in the end. If things don't work out, oh well.
