Days passed by in the factory, and Lou's life continued to be a cycle of cleaning and misery. He tried to keep his spirits up, but it was difficult when everything around him was falling apart. The other dolls ignored him, and he felt more alone than ever before. 

One Day he was laying down on his dirty bed simply staring up at the ceiling

Lou was jolted awake from his daydream by the sound of an alarm blaring through the factory. He sat up in his bed, his heart racing with a mix of fear and curiosity. He hadn't heard that alarm in years, and he wondered what it could mean.

Lou quickly got out of bed and fixed his suit, trying to look presentable despite the dust and dirt that clung to it. He hurried outside, his heart pounding with anticipation as he tried to figure out what was going on.

Lou watched as the other dolls panicked and ran around, completely oblivious to the reason behind the alarm. He couldn't help but grin at the chaos, enjoying the sight of the dolls in a state of disarray. But deep down, he was nervous as well. He had a feeling that something big was about to happen, and he didn't know if it was going to be good or bad.

Some of the dolls looked at Lou, their eyes filled with suspicion and accusation. "You're our old leader," one of them said, pointing a finger at him. "You must have something to do with this."
Lou bristled at the accusation, his eyes narrowing as he glared back at the doll. "I don't know anything about this," he snapped defensively. "Why would I set off an alarm and cause all this chaos?"

The other dolls continued to look at Lou skeptically, not believing his denial. They whispered amongst themselves, casting suspicious glances in his direction. Lou could feel their eyes on him, and it made him even more uncomfortable.

"Why should we believe you?" another doll said, stepping forward. "You've been demoted a few months, and you've always had a grudge against us."

Lou couldn't deny that he held a grudge against the other dolls, but he knew that he wasn't the one who had set off the alarm. He clenched his fists, trying to keep his temper in check as the other dolls continued to accuse him.

Lou had a slight idea of what the alarm meant, but he didn't know the exact details. He had been in the factory for so long that he had heard all sorts of alarms, and he knew that each one had a specific purpose. But this alarm was different, and he couldn't shake the feeling that something big was about to happen.

Ox hopped towards Lou, a scowl on his face. Lou's expression darkened as he saw his old friend, one of the ugly freaks who had the Crown him and turned him into a janitor. He didn't say anything, but his eyes narrowed as he glared at Ox.

Ox said I know you have something to do with this alarm. Explain yourself Lou.

Lou crossed his arms, his expression defiant. "I don't have anything to do with this alarm," he said firmly. "I don't know what's going on any more than you do. Why would you think I'm responsible?"

Ox didn't trust Lou, and it showed in his expression. He continued to glare at him, his eyes filled with suspicion.
"You've always been up to something," he said accusingly. "Why should I believe that you don't have anything to do with this?"

The doll quickly ran up to Ox and whispered something in his ear. "The portal is closed," he said, his eyes widening in shock.

The dolls quickly ran to the portal, with Lou following close behind. They all crowded around the portal, staring at it in disbelief. The once-open doorway was now closed, with no sign of it ever being opened again.

Lou's heart sank as he realized that his creator must be behind the closed portal. He had a feeling that his creator had something to do with this, and it made him nervous and scared. He didn't know what his creator was planning, but he knew that it couldn't be good.

The other dolls began to accuse Lou even more, blaming him for the closed portal and everything that was going on. They surrounded him, their voices rising in a cacophony of anger and accusation.
"You did this!" one of them shouted.
"You're the reason why the portal is closed!"

Lou felt overwhelmed by the accusations, his heart pounding in his chest. He tried to defend himself, but the other dolls wouldn't listen.
They were too angry and afraid to hear him out.
"I told you, I didn't do this!" he yelled, his voice shaking with emotion. "Why won't you believe me?"

Lou was taken aback when one of the robots approached him, scanning him with its mechanical eyes. He had a sinking feeling in his stomach as the robot called him an " prototype" and said that his creator wanted to talk to him.

"My creator?" he repeated, his voice trembling slightly.

Lou tried to refuse, but the robots grabbed his wrist and started dragging him towards the portal. He struggled against their grip, but they were too strong for him. The other dolls watched in shock as he was dragged away, unable to do anything to help him.

Lou's heart was pounding in his chest as he was taken closer and closer to the portal. He didn't want to see his creator, but he knew that he had no choice.

As Lou was shoved into the portal, he saw Ox slip in after him. He felt a mix of relief and dread as his old friend joined him. The portal closed behind them,
