I start my journey... back to where all the betrayers are...

Liy told me Ice Cube should join us... Liy said Ice Cube loves me a lot. Liy said Ice Cube will help us get revenge on the rest of those fools.

I hope Icy will be convinced... otherwise I might have to kill her... which I do not want to do...

Book's POV

I wake up to notice Lollipop is missing... I would think she switched rooms but... all her stuff is still there.

Maybe she went down stairs to the main room.

Ice Cube is asleep so I'll have to go alone.

I walk out into the hall, and find Lollipop sitting with her back against the wall...

She glances at me. "Oh, Hey Book..."

"Lollipop, what's wrong?"

She sighs and says, "Nothing."

Shes lying but I'm not going to make a fuss about it.

"Do you want to come with me and get breakfast?"

She hesitates for whatever reason, but says, "Sure."

As we walk downstairs she stares sadly at the ground... What's with her?

Lollipop's POV

Ugh, great... I don't know why Book decided to wake up so early but... she did and now we have to get breakfast.

I am still extremely upset Taco is gone. Book obviously doesnt care though, so I will not tell her about it.

I think Taco is dead... Liy probably killed her... Plus I doubt Taco would abandon us.

I feel myself grow sadder as we both walk down the stairs... What if Taco is out there somewhere? And we just ditched her?!

I feel a lot like I might start crying, but... Book would most likely judge me if that happened.

When we make it to the main room I go to the couch and sit by myself. Book goes to the kitchen.

This is my chance to leave.

I get up and go into the restroom, locking the door. I sit on the floor and start crying...

"Taco where are you!" I whisper to myself, sobbing.

Barf Bag's POV

I walk downstairs to get my roommates, Naily and Bomby, breakfast. As I walk past the restroom I hear somebody crying... it sounds a lot like Lollipop? She doesn't seem like a person that would cry though... at all.

I walk into the main room and see Book coming out of the kitchen angrily.

"I LEAVE FOR A SECOND- oh hi Barf Bag..."

I stare at her awkwardly. "So uh Book... is Lollipop doing okay?"

"YOU NOTICED TOO?! Shes been so angry at me and quiet and every time I ask her what's wrong she says it's nothing! And now she keeps DISAPPEARING ON ME!"

Book seems pretty upset with her... I wonder if that's why she's crying?

"Barf Bag... did you see her walking by when you came here?"

I felt a bit hesitant, but eventually said, "She... shes in the restroom... she sounds pretty upset..."

Book's face softens a little. "Like... angry?"

I sigh. "More like... devastated?"

Book stared into the fireplace and then asked, "Should we check up on her?"

I tried to think if that'd be a good idea...

"Uh... I think you should... me and her don't have the best relationship..."

"But, I think she hates me," Book said sadly.

I sigh and walk over to the door.

I hear sobbing coming from the inside.

"L-Lollipop? A-are you doing okay?"

I wait a few seconds till she says, "Barf Bag, now isn't the time!"

I frown a bit and say, "Uhm... is it okay for Book to talk to you? Shes in the main room, and shes worried about you..."

I hear her sob some more before saying, "I want to be alone, Book does not need to know why I'm sad!"

I hear her whimper and sob more.

"Well... who would you want to talk to?"

"Somebody I could trust!"

"Well... if you want.. you and me could go somewhere private... I won't tell anybody what's wrong, and if I do, you will not have to listen to me ever again."

I hear her cry some more, not really responding.

"I mean, I'll probably forget, you know... my 'intoxicating brain cells'..."

I hear her sniff a few times, and the door opens. She looks horrible...

"Okay, you go up to room 15, I heard its empty. I just need to get things for my roommates. I'll meet you up there, okay?"

"Okay," she replied, still crying a bit.

I go back to the main room where Book is.

"So, what happened?" She asked.

"Well... shes still pretty upset... I'm going to try talking to her in private... Could you get Bomby and Naily food for me?"

"Uh, yeah, sure... what room is yours?"

"Oh, room 5!"

"Okay... Good luck..."

"Ha yeah thanks," I replied hoping Lollipop will not get into 'barf molecules'.

Lollipop's POV

I sit in the room, waiting for Barf Bag. I can't believe Taco is gone... Maybe even forever... I can't get over it. And if she isn't dead shes probably going through something traumatic or is alone and trapped like the jawbreaker incident...

After a few minutes alone, Barf Bag opens the door.

"Hey Lollipop, are you ready to talk now?"

I sigh sadly. "I guess..."

I stare at the ground, not wanting to make eye contact.

"Don't tell Book but... I miss Taco..."

She is silent for a few seconds, then says "Oh... were you two close?"

"Yeah... she and I were as close as Book and Ice Cube. Book doesnt get along with Taco as well though..."

"Oh... Well, Lollipop... If you want you could hang out with me... I feel kind of like the third wheel in my group."

"Oh? So what should we do then?" I ask. I never thought me and Barf Bag would get closer while trapped down here, but now we are already hanging out together.

"Ooh! I have some cards! We could play go fish or war or some other card game!"

I smile as she takes out some cards.

We start playing a game of go fish.
