Tess

"Flabber Gas. Makes your muscles all...flabby." Oh Fuck! Uncle Ray and Hen can't move and I'm not moving from I guess my fear and past trauma. I'm failing both of them because I'm not fighting that man or doing anything to get them back to normal.

"Do you have any...'back to normal' gas?" I want to kill this man, but I can't get up to do so! I wasn't sprayed by this gas but, I feel like I can't move like Uncle Ray and Hen. 

"No, but maybe there's some down in the sewer." 

"Pfft. Unlikely." I look over and see an opening for the sewer. Is this place starting to get smaller?

"Oh. I see. That's a clever way of saying you're going to throw me in the sewer. Man this is not my day." The man throws Uncle Ray down the sewer first. 

"Ahhh!"

"You're not gonna get away with this... I'm sorry, what's your name?"

"Barge. The name's Barge."

"Why are you stealing all these towels dude?" 

"Don't tell him! He doesn't deserve to know." Villian or not, he would be a brilliant voice actor. 

"Uhhhh...I'm so sorry, who are you talking to?" Barge pulls out a towel with a face. You have got to kidding. 

"My boss. The king of all towels." I don't wanna know.

"Shhh-wut?" 

"Now throw him down the sewer De'Bargerey and bring more towels for your king." De'Bargerey? What the fuck?!

"Yes, your dryness."

"No no no! My talking towel says you should let him go." Barge throws Hen down the sewers.

"Ahhhhhhhh!" Barge sees that I'm still here.

"Any last words?" I try to mutter something but, I can't! Barge grabs me and throws me down the sewer.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" I scream louder and louder than Hen and Uncle Ray did. My screams are so loud that I don't even hear us hit the bottom or Uncle Ray and Hen trying to get me to stop screaming. I have failed them, like I failed my parents. I know I was only 10, almost 11 when they died, but I still carried that guilt of that I could have done something to save them from getting killed by Drex. Like right now, I could have done something to stop Uncle Ray and Hen getting sprayed by the Flabber gas but, I didn't. I just froze. I don't feel like I deserve to be a superhero but let alone a sidekick. If I can't even protect Captain Man and Kid Danger from getting sprayed by a gas, how can I protect the citizens of Swellview? About an hour or two later, and I hear faintly Schwoz in the sewers. 

"Ray! Henry! Teresa!" I start faintly hear them talk.

"Schwoz!"

"Schwoz, help us!" I try to speak but, I can't. 

"What's wrong with Teresa?"

"We don't know."

"All we know is that she's been muttering something about failing us and feeling guilty." Schwoz turns me over to look at me and sees what's happening.

"Uh oh."

"What uh oh?" Schwoz starts to explain why he said uh oh while starting to put Uncle Ray and Hen into two separate bags.

"Teresa spiraling."

"What do you mean she's spiraling?"

"Her past trauma from her parents getting killed in front of her was starting to resurface when you three were fighting that towel thief."
