"..."

(???): *Spiritually*: "...Mike? Mike, are you ok?"-(Through Mike's POV, his eyes are just opening open through the sound of a familiar voice)

"Mike soon sees what was left of the small chest Tangle saw earlier now smashed, originally inside of it and now attached to Mike's right-wrist, is an ancient looking bracelet with a glowing green orb-crystal...he looks up, and sees someone Mike never thought he would see again, now in a form as a glowing green ghost."

(Mike the Wolf): "D-Dad..."-(As he begins tearing up upon seeing him again)

(Mike's Father): *Spiritually*: "Yes, it's me. Didn't you would end up getting a scar like your old man."-(Preferring to himself as he points out the little scar Mike has on his right eyebrow...But Mike simply hugs his father, Mike's father seems concerned/confused)-"Hey, you alright kido-?"-(Mike starts crying. Whisper slowly wakens slightly and listens in on their conversation)

(Mike the Wolf): "I'm sorry...I'm so sorry...I didn't mean to cause all that to happen..."-(Mike's Father quickly realises what he meant)

(Mike's Father): "Hey, Mike...what happened back then wasn't your fault. It was my undoing. The Wolf-Hunter was gonna take you away or kill you...I could let that happened to you..."-(As he rubs Mike's head)

(Mike the Wolf): "Well...why wouldn't you let me help you?"-(Calms down a bit, but still has some tears in his eyes)

(Mike's Father): "I was just of losing you...I would have guilty for losing you...I'm sorry kido."-(The 2 hug each other more. Whisper can't help but tear up, but puts her mask on to hide it)

"The ghost of Mike's Father then disappears for now...Whisper then places her hand on Mike's shoulder...the moment gets cut off as Tangle wakes up in a fright as she busts the safe door open through her tail and jumps straight out of the safe."

(Tangle): "AIR! Don't care if it smells like burning"-(Very relieved to be out of the safe)

(Mike the Wolf): *Coughing*-"Ah, crud..."-(Sees the distraction of what's left of the bunker)-"Mimic wasn't messing around, there's like nothing..."-(Quite shocked at what happened, Whisper is shaken...and after some thought)

(Whisper): *Whispers*: 'Mike, Tangle...go home.'-(Mike & Tangle turn to Whisper, Mike kind of knows why, while Tangle-)

(Tangle): "Wait! I know I screwed up! I knew Mimic's game, but someone else got me...but it won't happen again!"-(Not wanting to leave Whisper continuing to take down Mimic alone)

(Whisper): *Whispers*: 'No...'-(Mike steps in)

(Mike the Wolf): "Tangle, leave her be...she's just-"-(Tangle then steps closer to Whisper)

(Tangle): "Please don't do this Whisper! Let me prove I'm not a failure!"-(As she gently shakes her in a sad way)

(Whisper): *Sniffs, then whispers*: 'You're not...'-(Secretly starts tearing up)

(Mike the Wolf): "Please Tangle, don't push her..."-(Kindly pleads with Tangle to stop)

(Tangle): "W-Why?!"-(She ask both Mike & Whisper, only for Whisper to turn and remove her mask)

(Whisper): "I won't lose another friend like you 2! I CAN'T!!"-(The words "I can't" echoing in the area...She then starts crying for a bit as she's sitting on the entrance to the safe hole frame)

"Tangle can't help but shed a tear or 2 for Whisper...Mike goes to sit next to Whisper, Tangle joining them as well."

(Mike the Wolf): "Whisper...was this why you didn't wanted us to come..."-(Whisper sadly nods her head)-"...I get it...my dad would be scared of losing-"
