Date: Dec 13

Testtube and Fan had announced their discovery to the rest of the people in the hotel, apparently there was 4 monsters on the island and they had figured out ways to avoid them. This discovery had made their survival more easier and everyone was happy for it.

Salt had finally gathered up the courage to go outside the hotel and collect stuff for them but to be honest she only did it just so oj can notice her or talk to her again. Knife was with her ofcourse. As they entered the forest, they were certain that no monster could sense them as they were wearing a perfume that blocks out their scents. Salt breathed in the air, it was kinda cold.

...

Pepper wondered around the forest, looking up at the slightly dim sunlight that penetrated through the leaves. She heard a slight noise and got down, her instincts kicking in. She carefully and quietly crouched towards the noise, almost immediately noticing salt. She was back and pepper was happy, although it was a little confusing since she couldn't quite smell them.

They were talking about something but pepper didn't pay attention, she just focused on salt. The loneliness she felt without salt by her side made her kinda depressed. She missed seeing salt's face, she missed hearing salt's voice even tho she could only recall vague memories of it. Her heart ached for her and her heart felt empty without her best friend by her side.

She wants salt

she needs salt.

She couldn't take it anymore..

She lunged forward, flapping her huge bat like wings and picking salt up as she flew away. Salt struggled in her grasp, panicking and yelling. Pepper dropped her down on a nearby cliff, she watched as salt breathed heavily and tried to get away.

"Stay back!" She struggled, turning around to see the end of the cliff

"please..." She started to sob. Pepper crawled closer, taking in her precious beauty that she missed oh so much.

"You still remember me.. right?" Her voice was hoarse and shaky, like she had been screaming and crying for hours without end. Salt looked at me, her eyes widening

"w... What?" She said, sniffling.

"I missed you.. I hope you missed me too." Peppers voice became a little bit more clear as she spoke

"I don't want to lose you again." Tears fell down her eyes

"stay with me...."

Peppers voice got more distorted as she roughly held salt in place, her eyes rolling up onto the back of her head and her skin ripping as her mouth got wider and bigger. A strange appendage rolled out of her mouth, attaching on salt's chest and injecting some strange liquid inside. Salt screamed, trying to get it out of her. After that pepper stopped, getting off of her as she screamed in pain. Salt whimpered and sobbed as her bones got broken and rearranged, she writhed on the ground and puked up blood. Salt couldn't take the pain anymore and passed out.

When she woke up, her entire body was sore. She looked around, she was in a cave. Pepper was there, crying beneath her. When pepper saw her she got more guilty

"I'm sorry.. I had to, I wanted you to be with me." She sobbed and sobbed.

"please don't get mad at me, don't leave me again." She begged. Salt's heart broke at her words, she finally recognized her, it was pepper! Her best friend that she had lost a long time ago.

"Pepper?" She said, her voice was barely above a whisper. She reached out a trembling hand, pushing through the pain just to caress peppers face gently, the face that she thought was gone for good long ago.

"You're wearing my sweater.." she said, smiling softly as pepper continued to cry.

Meanwhile:

Knife stumbled back into the hotel, locking the door behind him frantically.

"Salt is gone!" Oj stood up from the couch

"really!?" His voice seemed a little happy, he cleared his throat once he realized that

"I mean.. uh.. really?" He repeated, more sincere this time.

"She got swooped up by a monster." Knife said, showing the basket and the peice of ribbon that was from salt.

"Is it bad that I don't feel sad right now?" Cheesy said, genuinely feeling a little guilty for not feeling sad

"no." Oj whispered to him.
