*Mary's POV*
Woah... Do you know how weird it is to see yourself in anime form? Of course you don't because you're normal and not trapped in some stupid video game!
Ugh...
"Hey! Mary! Check this out dude!" Alan hollered over to me while pointing in the direction of a pair of bushes, "It's a wild mudkip!"
"Swag..." I sarcastically sighed and plopped down into a criss cross apple sauce position, "Where's the cool ones, like Charizard?"
He gasped, "Mudkip is amazing!"
"Sure... What does it do?"
"Well," Alan began, "Mudkip can use his fin as a radar and he can protect himself and those he loves! Also, despite his size, he's extremely strong! "
I raised an eyebrow, "Am I supposed to be impressed or..."
Alan stuck his tongue out at me and crossed his arms, "Fine... I see how it is!"
A beautiful singing voice that went along to the tune of "Hold You Up" by Shane Harper was coming from the distance.
"Wow..." I began to follow the trail to find Rachel and Austin smiling up at Denis who was playing a nice acoustic guitar and a Ditto was jiggling along to the beat.
Denis froze as he saw me approach, "Oh, I'm sorry... This cute little Ditto found me a guitar and that song always seems to relax me..."
"It's fine! You have a really REALLY nice voice... I might just start listening to Asking Alexandria now!" I laughed and sat down next to Rachel, "You can continue!"
Denis fixed his gaze to Alan who was running frantically around trying to catch the little Mudkip.
Ditto, who became terrified, ran up Denis' leg and slid down into his ACDC shirt.
"Woah! It's okay buddy! It's only Alan!" He placed his hand on top of the lump in his shirt and smiled.
I noticed Rachel blushing at the ground as Austin nudged her slightly with his elbow.
Hmmm, what's going on here?
I really want pizza...

*Payton's POV*

"Listen, I'm just as angry about being here as you are so can we just chill for a bit?" Danny, who I most certainly did NOT want to be here, followed me around as I paced through the forest we ended up in together.
"I can't 'chill'!" I put air quotes up, "I didn't ask for you to be here with me..."
"Okay... What do you have against me?"
I nearly forgot he was British for a moment...
"I... I don't know! I'm just- I'm stressed out, okay?" I hissed at him and leaned against a tree so my back was turned to him.
I could feel his eyes on me...
"Do you need your momma to sing you to sleep?" He asked.
"What?" I glared at him.
He beamed, "Like, in the song! Haha... I'm kidding... I don't think we ever introduced ourselves?"
A smile formed on my lips for a split second at his Twenty Øne Piløts reference.
"I know who you are..." My face became stern once again, "My sister... Well, never mind I guess..."
"What's your name, love?"
My stomach lurched, "I'm Payton..."
He nodded, "Payton... Okay, Payton. I'm really sorry about Elliott, he was a really great guy..."
"You knew him?" I asked, generally interested in his answer.
A long pause became present.
"Yeah..." He finally spoke up, "We were close."
Could Danny actually have feelings? I guess I've never really thought of him as a human being before, just a figure of drugs, alcohol, and rock and roll... I never really gave him a chance in my mind...
I watched as he slowly sat down and leaned against a pixelated tree and sighed as strands of his orangesh brown hair fell in front of his eyes. Silence lingered in the air as my eyes followed the tear drop that fell from his cheek and onto the dirt surrounding him. He tried so hard to keep it in, but he let go and cried. His knuckles were pale from clutching the air beneath his fists, and his lower lip began to pool blood from his teeth biting down too hard.
"Danny... It's okay to cry..." I bent my knees and leaned onto his shoulder while wrapping my arms around him, "We're in this together, okay?"
I heard him sniff and he turned to look up at me, "Th... Thank you, Payton..."
I've never found a pair of anime eyes to look so lost and sorrowful. It was painful to look into his gaze.
Without even thinking, I tilted my head so my lips met his and I held on tightly to the back of his neck. I've always wondered what it would feel like to kiss an anime character...
It's not really any different... Lame.
Danny took his firm hand and lightly pushed on my cheek to lea me away from his mouth.
An awkward laugh left his mouth as he began to speak, "Uhh, Payton? I'm flattered, but-"
"No, I'm sorry I just-"
"Thanks for that but I do-"
"Ahem..." I coughed to end our babbling.
"We should, uh, go find everyone else..." Danny stood up and grabbed m hand to pull me to my feet, "Because Denis is probably a blubbery mess by now..."
I sucked in air and held it there in my lungs for a few seconds, "Uh, yeah! Good plan!"
Why did I do that? I only wanted him to quit crying... It made me upset... Great, now I know Rachel is never going to let this go!
