Hello There 2: Salad's Breaking Point

The New Beginning

Joyce was now ten years old, but she still remained the same happy girl that she always was. She sat on the ground staring at a sprouting pumpkin plant. Harry was leaning against Salad's house and Salad was laying on the ground also looking at the Plant. "Hey Salad, Harry? Do you want to go into the woods with me today?" Joyce asked standing up.

Harry gave a groan in agreement and Salad smiled. "Y-yes! That's sound li-like a g-great idea!" He mumbled.

It was decided, Joyce put on her thin black coat (that she found in Hooked on a tree) and lead Salad and Harry into the woods. She was determined to find some more photos of Salad and his friends. But instead she found something way more interesting.....

As they got to the forest Harry let out a grumble. "Ypeerc....."

Joyce was able to recognize what he said and nodded. "Yea it is a little creepy." She laughed.

"H-hey Joyce! I-I-is that your f-friend!" Salad chirped, pointing a finger towards as mound laying on the ground.

Joyce snapped her head over to that direction. "Friend? What do you mean,"

Joyce took notice to the mound and walked over to it. The closer she got, she began to hear quiet gasps. She noticed the sound quickly, it sounded exactly like crying. "Uhm...are you okay." Joyce asked.

Once the "mound" came into light Joyce gasped. "G-guilt...?"

He turned his head to face Joyce and gasped. "Y-y-you!" He shouted.

Guilt's whole face was scratched up, his arm was mangled, and he had a giant bite mark on his leg. "K-kill.....me!" He screamed dragging his body to Joyce.

"What?! No, let us help you!" Joyce said, motioning for Harry and Salad to help her.

Guilt gave a crooked smile, which only caused his face wound to reopen. "You....y-you don't g-g-get it! I-I need to be w-with her!" He shouted grabbing onto Joyce's dress.

"No! I'm helping you." Joyce said quickly, grabbing bandages out of her pocket along with some ground plant.

Guilt smiled nervously and resumed his crying. He blacked out from blood loss, which gave Joyce some time to drag him to Salad's house.
