"I still can't believe we're actually doing this..." Zachary stated. Stephano punched his arm, resulting in Zachary rubbing it in pain.

"Too. Bad. We are stuck in this situation and this is the only way that we can get close!" Stephano argued. Zachary groaned in frustration, but stopped talking nonetheless. If you must know, these two minions were sent to do one thing.

'Enroll'...

Now to Zachary, for even people like him he finds this plan completely preposterous and idiotic- but orders were orders. The two of them stood in front of the gigantic building- The Institute of Perfection. Stephano agreed with Zachary on the fact that this plan was simply not going to work, but at the same time orders are orders. Both of them were clothed in uniforms and styled to perfection. But if we went back in time to when being perfect was everything, they wouldn't qualify. To some they would, others wouldn't bother.

They both walked up to the building, entering inside only to be greeted with a gigantic arena and various female and male dolls. One doll in particular, they both smirked. Stephano turned to Zachary and quietly warned him.

"Remember, we are new." Zachary nodded in response. the two dolls continued to make their way to Lou, who was not surprisingly surrounded by many more dolls who were trying to socialise with him. Especially a lot of females. They were now only few metres away from Lou- who noticed their presence. He didn't say anything though. Zachary pulled off a fake smile as well as Stephano did.

"We'd just like to let you know that we are new here and we are ever so grateful for all that you've done here. I mean after all we've heard about you..." Stephano commented cheerfully- but it seemed so intense in a way that it actually frightened Lou. Lou shook of the frightened feeling and replied.

"Well, I thank you, really. But I don't think that anyone told you about the old me..." Lou laughed nervously, leaving the small crowd around him a little silent. Stephano held in his raised eyebrow move, and played it off cool.

"Oh? Well no matter. What matters is the present? Isn't that right Zachary?" Zachary looked back at Stephano from being distracted at the sight of the Arena.

"Yeah!" Zachary exclaimed. They both turned their attention back to Lou who still stood there with his hands behind his back, listening patiently and quietly- smiling.

Lou just nodded at their advice and took that to heart. Sure his past was not at his best, but its all about the person he was today at that very moment.

"Thank you really. I hope that everything goes all well for you here. We are about to start sessions so I should definitely get ready." Lou smiled sheepishly, hoping that he was nowhere rude in his speech. The other two dolls just nodded at his request and let him make his way to the stage."

-meanwhile with the uglygolls.-

Moxy and the others were spending the remains of their moments at Ox's house, talking amongst themselves an on what had changed. Sure they weren't frequently serious- but they were mindful. Moxy was sitting on the white now replaced grey couch with very vibrant colours that had a lot of vibrancy. Ox and Babo resting their backs by the couch while sitting on the floor. While Ugly Dog spent his time sitting on the chair, playing a card game with Lucky Bat. It wasn't boring per say, but it certainly wasn't the most exciting thing that was happening. It was a calm moment, which was very unlikely for these hyper dolls.

"Let's be honest here, a lot of things have changed!" Ugly dog exclaimed. Grabbing the attention of the dolls. Moxy nodded. "Oh yeah for sure! I mean I had hope for Lou but I really didn't think it would happen so quickly. It's only been a few weeks!" They all hum in agreement, Lucky Bat slightly frowns. "Yeah but... I really feel like something suspicious is going on..." Babo raised an eyebrow at Lucky Bat's comment. "Well, what do you mean Lucky?" Lucky Bat sighed, knowing that this would come out wrong in the end- but alas continued his part in speaking.

"Don't get me wrong guys. I'm all up for a second chance in the long run. But all of his is going WAY to well. I'm not saying Lou's the problem is Lou... But I feel like something is going on." Lucky Bat said, turning his attention to the window, as if it were the most interesting thing in the world. "Well... why not enjoy what is happening right now? The last thing I would want is drama." All of them nodded, reflecting not their past experience. Lucky Bat was still contemplative, thinking that everything done was a set-up or even so a mistake. But there was a side of him that believed that a change did happen.

-----Mandy's House-------

"Mandy! I'm back" Lou called out, opening the door to the lovely abode of Mandy. Lou still had to admit, despite the fact that he'd only been inside of the house a few times, he could never get over how clean and beautiful it was.

Lou sensed a lot of quiet and, for a minute, started to worry. That two things could be possible. One being that Mandy was in trouble, or the idea that she was planning something that Lou was ready to prepare for.

"Mandy- WOAH!" Lou interrupted himself, feeling a sudden weight pushing down onto his back. Mandy was hanging onto the back of Lou, her legs around his torso and her arms just from the middle of Lou's neck and shoulders to just in front of Lou's chest. She was in a piggy-back position. Lou recognised that voice and laugh anywhere.

"Well. That's one way to greet your boyfriend." Lou chuckled at Mandy's antics.

I know that this chapter was incredibly short and I wish that I posted and written sooner, but I'm losing more and more time as school get's in my way. As cliche and typical as that sounds, it really is the reason I can't update.

Your patience is very appreciated. Again I'm super sorry :((( Im trying really but please give me time
