Rocky Roads (OSC story) slow updates*

CHAPTER 6: Burner

"Don't worry kiddo, we aren't going to hurt you" a tall male said, kneeling to reach Rocky's height.

"We aren't gonna hurt you" he repeated in a soft voice, holding his hand out for Rocky to grab.

"Well one of us" the girl in the grey beenie muttered. Rocky didn't hear, but the other did.

"Spraypaint!! His just a child!!" He yelled at her, Spraypaint just rolled her eyes and walked away.

The tall male just sighed and turned back to Rocky, "sorry about her little fella, she's a moody one that's for sure". He said, Rocky looked up at the male infront of him.

By now, Rocky should be use to trusting strangers, but his father always said, you should never trust strangers.
But everyone he met that helped him were nice.

Liam and Bryce.

Snowy, Bowling ball, Flaggy

Yarn, Pitchfork, Apricot, Oodle, Whip cream.

Sliver and Ukelele.

Surely this man would help Rocky as well. "How about I take you to my friends, hm?" He asked Rocky, Rocky nodded and took the man's hand.

"My name is Peanut by the way, what's yours?" Peanut smiled. Rocky looked up at him, then back down.

"Not much of a speaker now aren't we? Well that's okay" Peanut said, he got up and the two began walking.

It wasn't a long walk, seeing as they were just in a orange room. But soon enough they saw more people, there were a total of 11 people there.
Rocky was a little timid, and stepped closer to Peanut. But soon a girl with red-ish hair walked over.

"Oh hey Rosey" Peanut waved to her, "hey Peanut, how's the eliminated contestants life doing for you?" Rosey smiled and asked.

"And who is this little guy?" Rosey asked, crouching down to Rocky's level.

Rocky didn't even say a word, not like he can anyways. I mean he can, but it's rare.

"He's not much of a speaker" Peanut said, Rosey smiled "I see".

Rocky eyes drifted around the orange place. There wasn't anything outstanding here, Rocky looked up. Seeing as Peanut and Rosey were talking, Rocky let go of Peanut's hand and walked away.

Rocky walked over to a girl who was sitting by herself against a tree. She was paying no mind to the boy next to her.
Rocky crouched down, and poked her cheek without thinking.

This woke her up from her trance as she looked over "Tissue what do you want- oh" she stopped mid-sentence after seeing the young boy.

"Sorry, I assumed it was my imaginative friend" she shyly said chuckling at herself. "Um... Who are you?" She asked the young boy.

Rocky didn't answer, he just sat down next to her and held up the item. "Oh um- what is this?" The girl asked, Rocky only frowned and tried to find a charging port.

But she grabbed it out of Rocky's hands, "what are you looking for?" She asked examining the item.
"Do you need it to charge?" She asked a different question. This made Rocky perk up and nod rapidly, the girl chuckled at Rocky's reaction. "Maybe Daddy Long Legs had one... Wanna go ask with me?"

Rocky smiled and got up as well as the girl. "Oh right, I never introduced myself, I'm Record and you are?" Rocky only nodded and began walking. Record quickly ran up to Rocky, not to lose him in this empty place.

"Your not much of a talker are you?" Record mumbled to herself. Rocky happily was skipping next to her, wanting to meet this Daddy long legs person.

After a small trip, they soon met a very tall, lanky guy. The tall man crouched down to face the two of them, his entire body looked like it was covered in black ash, with only glowing dots for eyes.
