Rose - A Poppy Playtime Story

Chapter 43 - Jailbreak

(*Heroic music)

Angel and Crafty walked back to the library, making small conversation as they did.

"So, how did you escape from Catnap? Also, how did you even get down here?" Crafty asked, tilting her head.

"Oh! Well, the situation with Catnap...is a long story. But, I did have to...meet Mommy Long Legs and Huggy Wuggy to get down here!" Angel said, pausing on the words they really weren't sure of.

"Aren't they Prototype followers as well?" Crafty questions, her body tensing at mentioning the Prototype.

"I'm not sure. Huggy didn't say much, or anything, and Mommy Long Legs didn't seem too trusting of the guy."

"Huh, did they attack you or were they really friendly?"

"I- um. They...I don't think they'll liked me." Angel said, after a moment.

"Sometimes I worry that they'll come to hunt us down one day..." Crafty admits, her voice just above a whisper.

"You won't have to worry about that." Angel said, after an internal battle of whether to say anything or not.

"Why's that?" She asked, innocently.

Angel stared at her for a second, their brown eyes wide. Crafty trusted them, she thought they were safe. What would she think if she knew what Angel had done? Even if it was self defense.

Angel didn't intend to come here and become a killer of toys.

"Angel, are you okay?" Crafty called out, raising her voice slightly even though they were still holding onto each other.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Angel responded, their voice distant.

"Oh, alright. Also, no rush, but you didn't answer my question-"

As Crafty was about to finish her sentence a loud cheer erupted from the library, causing her to jump.

Angel guided both of them in, ignoring the unicorn's shaking hoof. Their face only shown bewilderment.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Hoppy yelled, jumping up and down while she laughed. Dogday just started laughing, almost to the point of tears.

Bomb was sitting in the cage, the door wide open. She was slightly gnawing on the cage bars, growling like an animal.

Red (Maraca) jumped up to get her attention, squeaking like a disappointed parent. Bomb ignored the small red bear.

"Oh! What is happening?" Crafty softly asked Angel.

"Bomb's been let out of jail, and is currently destroying it." Angel replied in a bored tone.

"Oh my." Crafty whispered.

"We finally did it...finally!" Dogday said, tears streaming down his face. Hoppy ran over and grabbed Angel and Crafty, giving them a big hug.

Angel made a small noise due to surprise. It's funny to think that only hours earlier this bunny had been picking fights with the human.
