It has been a trillion years since Positive had promised to help his brother Negative. An unfathomable amount of Souls were saved in that time, but just as many were destroyed...
"Y-you're growing weaker... Curse..." panted Negative while concentrating not to move.

"Try all you want... But... But you won't make me move... There is no way..."

"That's not true! *Cough* They fear you, not me! And soon.. soon my brother will find a way to save... me..."

"You're... only... only trying... to make me give in... but I won't..." wheezed Negative and then he couldn't hold back any longer. His arms and legs began to move on their own and he stood up against his will.
"H͜҉ùs̷͠h̵̕, N͜e̸͟g̨̀a̛͠tiv̷̢e̷̵..͝. ̴try̕͝ ̧t͡o̧ ̕f̕al̵l̶̵ a̶s̵̨l̸eep͞.̧.̨͠.̸͘ i̛͝t̵͡ ̧͏w̵̛i̕͠ĺ̴l͞ he̷l̨҉p ̛u̵s̵͟ ̡b̴o̷t̡͠h̵͢,̴ ̛b̵el̢i̕ęve ͟m̀̕e̵̕.̛.͝.̵͘ mw͟a͠h͘͠a͘ha҉.̴́.͟͡. "
Negative did not fall asleep and proceeded to hold back his movements but no matter how much he tried he couldn't. He opened a portal to the universe of Gamindustri and went through it.
"O͡u͜r ̢ta̴r͜g͡e̕t ̕is ͢t͠og͡et͝he͞r̸ ̸w͡it̶h́ h̀ȩr fr̸iènds̕ at ͘t͡he ̷s͠o c̶alled ǵr̷a̸v̷eyard̛ wher͞e̴ they ̢ar̀e̕ ̢t́r̴yíng ̴to͠ sa̸v̕e their oth̛er͡ ̶f͞r҉íends̀!͏ I̕t ͏i̷s ̀s͜up͠p̴o҉s͡ed ̸to͢ b͠e ͠a ̡h̀a̵ppy̴ reunion͝ ̧fu̢l͡l ̷of͝ hęar̸t̴w̨ar̢m̨ing͞ ̶m̸òme̛n͢t҉s..̶.҉ ͝b́ut ̕si̴n̸ce͘ t͢h͝is̴ ҉i̡sn̴'t͜ o҉u̶r͏ st͜o͞ry w͠e'll g͜l͝a͟dl̛y̸ ͘interr҉up̧t̛ t̴ha̸t̕, ̕won͘'͜t̢ w͟e,̢ ͠Negat͝i͠ve̛?̢ "
Negative's body, wrapped in bonds, was now traversing the world of Gamindustri towards its center where he came across a woman with gray skin and green hair and a rat like creature with wings.
"Wha- who are you? Are you a CFW!? Are you here because CFW Judge lost!? Please forgive us! We couldn't stop them I swear!" begged the woman.
"I'm... not a... CFW..." coughed Negative while holding back his body with all his power.
"You're not, chump?" Wondered the rat.
"I bet he's part of the CPU's party! In that case, maybe we can get our revenge! He's completely alone afterall!"
