C/F/N: Close(st) friend name

You watched as the garden filled with fire, with no such expression with remorse nor guilt. How would Pin do such? Why must she had done anything like that? Its weird. But you dont know her as much, you dont even know her. Or do you? It sounds familiar. You sighed, being careful with not inhaling the fumes of the gas that intoxicated the fire, fixing your mask you had covering your mouth to prevent the fumes. Its been 45 minutes now, maybe its all done. Grabbing the fire extinguisher, you started slowly removing all the fire. Thankfully the group didnt stop you, so its okay.

Minutes after minutes, you had finally been done. The garden, now filled with dark substances, emitted a foul smell. Though, you couldnt smell it due to your mask. The group then agreed to heading off to try and find other people who need help. Outside of Yoyleland, away from most troubles.

Running through the cramped forest, i could only feel my breath being drastically lowered. I wasnt chased or anything, i was just worried. Worried of them. All the running is tuckering me out, but im a fast runner..But i should take a break. Feeling my throat slowly go dry, I urged to get a break. Slowing down, i was able to catch my breath. Due to the fastened breathing i were taking, my thoat went sore, causing to cough. I paused, before starting to take deep breaths. After a few minutes, i calmed down and started walking.

Recently- No. A few months ago the show had ended. And yet O/N, hadnt yet came back. It had.. worried me. Well of course, they had been my best friend for..The longest time. The whole show. But, ever since i left them, the burning urge to leave this show again and go back to them had been strong. But i managed to surpass that urge and stay, and stay i did. Although it had been..okay to say the least, something had felt off. Was it because of O/N not being there or has it just felt..weird.

Everyone has been weird, even me. Well maybe not me, im still me. But seriously, all the contestants even felt weird. Even O/N's closest friend, C/F/N. They have been weird too. I mean, i might just be thinking random things. That happens. It happens a lot. I think of random stuff all the goddamn time. Or im just crazy.

Still, being in my thoughts, i had walked into a clearing. Full of..nature. But not as like a forest again. A park, with bushes filled with flowers ontop, a fountain and..allat. you know. Snapping out of my thoughts, i payed attention to the surroundings. There were a lot of objects. Am i in a city? Looking around, i could definitely tell myself that yep, indeed i was. I shivered a little at the thought. Ive only been to the city once or twice. Due to the isolating, i blame the show on that.

Hesitating on wandering to the city, i take a deep breaths before taking speedy steps. All i need to do is find O/N.

And thats that.

3rd pov

You were currently sitting outside on a bench, just lost in your thoughts, looking out at the scenery. You were up on a hill, because Death P.A.C.T had a cottage on the hill, which was their hasngout spot. Or, meetup stop. One of those works. You spaced back into reality once you heard footsteps and someone sitting on the bench, on the other side from you. You turn to see Tree.

"Oh hey Tree, hows it holding up?" You started up a conversation smiling. Yet he didnt respond, just staring at his feet. His expression was blank, causing your smile to fade a little as he didnt reply. "You alright?" You ask, as he only looks away from you. You worry a little, but decide to not invade his personal space. Turning away and looking at the surroundings again, you couldnt really think of anytjing to think of. Nor, see. Looking up to the sky, you could only spot a nice sunset, the moon starting to appear, and the sun starting to dissapear slwoly but surely.

"..The sunset is beautiful. Isn't it?" Tree then spoke, making your attention turn to him. You look at him, to see him looking at you. You smile a little, "Yeah. It is. Is..Everything alright, Tree?" "Ehh.." He cleared his throat, "Its..Nothing? I mean, i keep thinking something bad is going to happen, thats all. Its a gut feeling, though." He replies, turning back to the sunset. "Yeah. Well, We will see if your gut is true or not, but hey, even if its true then im always here to help if anything goes wrong. Even if we just met. Im here for you, for them." You give him a gentle smile, causing him to smile aswell. "Thanks O/N. I appreciate it. Although we met you like hours ago, youre a good teammate. Youre pretty strategic, if its coming from me." He adds. You chuckle, "Thanks! I dont have that many strategies, but im always trying my best!" You respond. "Thats good. Its always best to try than to give up. You know?" "Yeah!"

You and Tree kept talking, about the group, death prevention and other stuff. Some times you had to come up with things, but thats alright. I mean, you dont remember much. Not much, but at all. But hey, youll get them back soon enough. You still have company, thats the good thing.

Company...
Its always best to be with someone than alone.
