You slowly walked down the street and towards the surface. It had been three months ever since you met your new friends, the three robots and ever since then, you have visited them everyday. You had also gotten used to being blind, so you were able to rely on your ear a lot more. You even trained your hearing to detect noises quite well! Well, almost. You still had some trouble when it came to crowded places like this. You were currently in a crowded place, which made it difficult to navigate in. As you were walking, you heard some people cry out in surprise as someone had shoved them out of the way.

"MOVE IT KID!" Someone shouted as they shoved you out of the way. You gasped and fell over and rolled away from the foot path, dropping your walking stick in the process. You groaned and sat up. You then shook your fist at the person who had shoved you to the side.

"Jerk!" You then tsked and felt around for your walking stick. "Now where did my walking stick go?" You muttered. People looked at you with wide eyes and they covered their mouths in horror.

"Someone help that girl! She's going to get run over!" Someone cried. You frowned in confusion. Run over? You then heard a car coming towards you in the distance and gasped. You were on a road!?

Astro flew through the skies as happy as he could be. It had been almost a year since he defeated the peace keeper and he felt great! Astro was currently on his way to the surface so that he could hang out with his best friends. As Astro was flying, he heard some commotion below him and he raised his eyebrow at the noise. What was going on?

"SOMEONE HELP THAT GIRL BEFORE SHE GETS RUN OVER!" Someone cried. Astro's eyes widened and he looked down to see a girl sitting up on the road looking for something. He then looked to his right to see that a car was approaching you, and fast. Astro gasped and flew down towards you at full speed. He had to get to you before it was too late!

You sat there as you tried to detect where the noise was coming from. You were now scared. Why wasn't anyone helping you? You heard that the car was much closer and it didn't sound like it was planning on stopping any time soon. Suddenly, you felt a pair of arms wrap around you and pull you against something as the you were whisked to the side. You then heard the car run over something and winced when you heard a static sound in your ear. Your walking stick had just been destroyed. You heard someone sigh in relief and whoever had saved you looked down at you.

"Hey, are you alright?" That voice, it was the same person who had saved you nine months ago! You tried to look up at him but you were pretty sure that you were underestimating his height. You then realised that you were still in the person's arms and you felt around. Was he behind you or- you felt a pair of hands on your back. You then realised that the person was in front of you. Astor stared at you with a raised eyebrow. Why were you wearing a blind fold? His eyes then widened in realisation. You were blind! You had no idea where to look so you decided to just sit there and look at the ground.

"Um, thank you for saving me earlier. I'm really grateful." You said as you nodded to Astro. Astro smiled at you and helped you up.

"Oh, it's no problem at all! Just wondering though, why were you out on the road?" Astro questioned. You turned your head in the direction of what you presumed to be was the road and frowned.

"Someone had knocked me onto the road and then I couldn't fine my..." You then gasped in realisation. "My walking stick! Oh no, it's broken!" You cried. Astro's eyes widened and he looked onto the road to see that you were right, your walking stick was smashed to bits. Astro frowned and he looked at you.

"Well, um, I could take you to where you were originally heading if you want." Astro offered. You sighed and shook your head.

"No, I don't want to bother you any further than I already have. I can just walk to my destination." You told as you pushed yourself out of Astro's arms. You then looked at Astro and smiled. "Say, which direction is the surface at?" Astro's eyes widened. He then smiled and walked towards you.
