Chapter 56: A Heartwarming Reunion

Bubba and the others meanwhile were in Bubba's house again, looking outside while chatting. Bubba then let out a sigh.

“So CatNap and DogDay are Dark Critters…” He said,

“Same for Holden's brother he's been searching for, huh?” KickinChicken said,

“...And CatNap destroyed the orphanage that raised him… His anger sure as hell got the best of him.”

“I feel bad for CatNap…” Bobby said, “And for DogDay, since he was there with him.”

“And ya said that CatNap and DogDay were blasted away to a forest behind Playtime Company?” PickyPiggy wondered,

“Yeah.” KickinChicken replied,

“Wherever they are, they might as well finish where they started.” Hoppy said, “Because I know damn well that they're not who they are. They're being controlled by someone causing this so-called “Hour Of Joy” to occur.”

“If they did end up being free from whoever controlled them…” Bubba said, “Then, hopefully they'll finish the same job that we all volunteered for.”

PickyPiggy was looking out the window.

“And there's no pink pillars of light scattered around except for one big one that's still covering up the red sky.” She said, “So maybe they might get to the root of it all.”

“Let's just pray.” Bubba said, “That's pretty much the only way since there's still a lot of these masked critters out there, wrecking havoc…”

CatNap and DogDay meanwhile were back walking in the forest the two were in. The two weren't seeing each other all of a sudden when CatNap told DogDay to leave him alone. That is, until CatNap stepped on something that made a crunching sound. DogDay then heard the crunch as he turned around.

“CatNap?” He wondered, “Did you step on something?”

“...No.” CatNap replied as he continued walking,

“...Ok.”

DogDay then stepped on something that made a crunching sound as well.

“Oh?” He wondered as he went down and noticed it was a flower of some sort, “A flower? Why did I step on a flower?”

“Hey.” CatNap said as he pointed to the path now having flowers all over, “Does this answer your question?”

“It does. Where did these flowers come from?”

“Don't know, might as well find out if we continue walking down this path.”

“Yeah, let's see what's up.”

CatNap and DogDay then continued to follow the path of flowers until they came across a garden of some sort through flowery vines. They were impressed as a river, fields of flowers, other paths from other flowery vines and a hut made out of wood on a small hill.

“Woah…” DogDay said, impressed, “Someone must have spent a long time with this.”

“Yeah…” CatNap said as he then looked at the hut, “Someone should be inside that hut.”

“If they're available… I guess we might as well check it out and tell them how they did it.”

CatNap and DogDay then slowly walked down the now path of the garden to the hut in the small hill. Inside, there was a bed in one corner and a ring of rocks with someone in a hoodie and cape meditating in the middle of it, turning away from the entrance. The two saw someone meditating and wanted to politely ask them.
