The next morning everyone came down and ate breakfast. As usual, Toby was the last one although he never was able to sleep but he did try. Toby slowly walked down and looked at everyone, once again smiling. "Hey look who's back!" Clocky said while stuffing a slice of toast in her mouth. "TOBY!!" Ben said running over to him and hugging. Toby hugged back and chuckled, "hey guys.." he said. Sally walked up to Toby and said "you stole my spotlight." Toby looked down at her in confusion. "Hm..? What do you mean?" He asked and knelt down next to her. "I wanted to play tea party but everyone left because you died" she said pouting. "Haha! I'm sorry Sally.. maybe we could play later" Toby said and stood up. "BUT!!" Sally pouted again. "Relax little one.. I'll play with you later or something" Toby ruffled Sally's hair and walked to the kitchen where everyone was. "Breakfast?" Hoodie looked at Toby from the stove. Toby shook his head "nahhh im Okay." Toby replied. Toby took a seat between masky and LJ. "Well well.. who do we have here~?" LJ said, looking down at Toby. "Oh no.. not you again" Toby looked up and the black and white clown. "Yes me~ always me~ heheheheh~" LJ said flirting. "Jeezus.." Toby looked away in disgust. LJ chuckled and ate candy.

Later that day, everyone was once outside and Toby was sitting under a tree humming a song that Lyra sang to him. It always calms him whenever he's in a bad mood. Right now, Toby wasn't in a bad mood.. but he really missed his sister. Suddenly he remember something and jumped up. "HEY JACK!!" He called out. Both EJ and LJ looked at him. "Uh.. I ment Eyeless.. pfft" Toby chuckled. "What is it?" EJ asked. "Tell everyone I went for a walk" Toby said and ran off towards the forest. "Uhh alright.." EJ said and continued doing what he was doing, which was playing tea party with Sally.  Toby ran towards a lake that him and Lyra used to hang out at. He stopped  and sat down. "I remember.." he said and took a rock in his hand. He looked down at it and threw it in the lake. "I remember..." he trailed off and looked down. Suddenly he heard rustling in a bush. "Huh..?" He turned around. "Oh hey.. what are you doing here..?" Toby asked and looked at the figure.
