Recap:

Dust snapped out of it, glaring at the ground.

"It's when someone tries to touch someone else without explicit permission to do so," Dust said vaguely, still beyond scared for Horror.

'He has to be okay. Please be okay.'

Recap End:

"So then, the doctor is trying to touch Horror?! But, no! Why?! Why would he do that?!" Leo cried, not at all understanding.

Dust gripped at himself, shaking more.

"For his own sick pleasure? To punish him? Because he was curious?" Dust whispered, fearing for Horror more than ever.

"No!!!" Leo gasped, not knowing what to say. Finally, he whispered, "Let's go. We gotta go help Horror. Now!"

Leo was already focusing on his power, to help destroy the machine.

Dust nodded, sending a bone attack flying into the camera, shattering it, then sent a barrage of attacks at the machine.

The machine was stronger than it looked, but Leo's claw attacks mixed in with Dust's bone attacks, soon left it broken and whining. Leo looked satisfied, and turned to Dust. "What now?"

"Let's trash the place while we wait for them to make their move," Dust decided, his face set with determination. "...If they don't make a move... We'll have to think of another was out."

Leo nodded, looking at the restraint seat (torture chair) and the dark colored counters, feeling the same determination pulsing through his small body.

Dust couldn't help but to grin slightly as he attacked the room with a barrage of different attacks, thinking of all the money that the asylum must have spent on this junk.

Eventually, Leo saw the giant doors open, causing the two to stop. Leo looked over at Dust hopefully. "Lets go help Horror."

Dust nodded again, sending another group of attacks through the open doors.

Nothing moved. But from the next room, Dust could see two doors, and a speaker in the middle. The speaker was saying something, but Dust, nor Leo could hear it.

Dust shared a glance with Leo, then started to advance on the exit, a bone attack in hand.

The speaker was now clear. "Dust, Dr. Duessbag wishes to speak with you. 188 must take the door to the left, and you are to take the door to the right. Disobey, and Horror will be hurt worse."

Dust tensed up, his hands clenched into fists, one word sticking in his mind.

'Worse. They've already hurt him,' he thought fearfully, stiffening.

"Leo... What do we do..?" he asked fearfully, his expression vulnerable and scared.

"Listen to the directions, Dust. For Horror' s sake. We've wasted enough time already, so please..." Leo answered, slowly stepping towards his designated door.

Dust slumped, nodding, taking a step towards the right door, then pausing.

"Don't die," he whispered to the other. "Make it out alive. Keep fighting."

Then, he turned back to the door and walked through it, not waiting for Leo's response, knowing that they had, indeed, wasted enough time.

A long hall remained ahead, readings on the wall. Everything was pale, medical looking.

Dust walked down the hall quickly, wanting to get this over with as soon as he possibly could.

At the end of the hall, was a big metal door. On it, the words 'Dr. Duessbag Testing Lab.'
