*This takes place as a normal day after the incident happened (if you watched tnm, you would know what i'm talking about* Sketchpad lives next to top hat along with folder living with top hat. *This is in human form btw*

Tophat's POV:

Finally, 3 years, 4 months, and 9 days after it also happened. Yes, I have been counting the days, that is also the amount of time that.. they.. disappeared. I still miss them. I still see illusions of them everywhere I go. They just won't leave. But, things have been better ever since the incident. I actually started to go outside more, and I also start to see sketchpad more often. But I noticed something. Something was odd about him... I need to start talking to him about it. I might do it later on today. He did say we should stick together, always. That means we talk about most of our secrets. And me and folder are still good friends ever since college.  Speaking of which, she picked me up groceries and just made it back. 

"Hey Top hat!" She said as she put the groceries on the side

"Hey folder." 

"I picked up some burgers at big juicy burgers! You want one? Its your favorite!"

"Yeah sure, I guess."

She came and sat on the couch, Which she had two burgers in her hand and gave one to me.

"Where are my onions"

"Oh shoot! I forgot to tell you! They had no more onions." She said.

"Oh."

"So.. bad news." She said 

"What is it?"

"There was a murder at sketchpads old work place. Sketchpad told me that he was going to take a visit over there today."

"Wait.... WHAT" I sounded like a dumb idiot

"Yeah and he told me to drive him there. Then, when I was shopping and looking at the news from my phone, I saw that the investigation team had a murder. All they saw was a black shoe on the ground. The little amount of surviving members are investigating the crime scene and I think that sketchpad might be next."

"How do you know he's alive?!" I panicked. I didn't want to lose another friend.

"I saw him walking down the street once I got home."

"Well he is never visiting that place again and I'll make sure of it!"

"Umm. How are you supposed to.."

"I'm Out!"
