Ty

This is after the tornado in Ty's dream.

"Ty, are you okay?" a worried voice came from under the rubble.

"I'm okay, Red." I replied.

My twin sister pulled me from the rubble. She was really strong for her age, especially for a female.

I looked down at her tread. "You're hurt."

"It's fine." she smiled at me and limped over the cave. I tried to help her a few times, but she always refused. She'd always been independent. It got on my nerves sometimes.

I looked around the outside of the cave. Everything was crushed and thrown all over the place. Including the trux.

"Shouldn't we try to help someone?" I asked. "This place is a mess."

"Trust me, I would." Red answered after she started a fire. "I mean that's what Mom would do. But you're in really bad shape. I need to take care of you before I take care of anyone else. Go drink some water."

I drove to the stream next to the cave and drank a bit of water. It looked much clearer than usual. As I was driving back, I groaned, I didn't feel so good.

"Ty, are you okay?" Red asked.

"I'm fine." I replied.

She felt my head and looked at the water. "I think there's chlorine in the stream."

"What's chlorine?" I asked.

"It's a chemical that's supposed to clean water. It's usually used by creatures called humans. It doesn't really affect them, but it's toxic to us."

She picked up a leaf and drove to the opposite side of the fire. She started to wave the smoke into my face and I coughed as I tried to wave the gas from my eyes. "What are you doing?!"

"The CO2 from the smoke dissolves the chlorine." Red explained. "Mom taught me."

Please don't try this. I don't know if it'll actually work.

After the smoke stopped blowing on my face, I dusted off the ashes and coughed up some of the water. "I...actually feel much better now."

"I told you." Red boasted. But her voice sounded a bit different. It sounded more like...Tiara's?

I finally opened my eyes, for real this time. I stood up from the rubble.

"Ty, you're awake!"Jenny jumped up and hugged me.

"No time for hugs." I gently pushed her away. "I know what's wrong with D-Structs."

"Is it chlorine poisoning?" Blayde asked.

"Yeah... how'd you know?"

"The tool told us a long time ago."

The yellow reptool jumped on a rock in front of me. "Hello, my name is rose.
