Dust's POV 2 days later

"Bud, it's okay. We'll find your brother. I'm sure he's okay. Don't worry." 

I said.

  Everything is gonna be ok. 

I thought.

Well someone forgot to tell Ink and me that we were gonna be sent away for testing! Things couldn't get any better!

I get thrown into some barred cell. I get up and find that I'm alive again. I try to summon some bone attacks or Gaster Blaster to get out, but fail. I can't summon anything. All my abilities seemed to be wiped out completely. I look around and besides the bars, there is no way out. Ink gets thrown in beside me. He looks around, living as well now. His eye lights shrink and he runs deeper into the dark cell.

"OOF! What the hell?"A voice yells

I recognize it.

"Geno!"Ink cheers

Geno's here too? You've gotta be kidding me!

"Dust! Geno's here!"Ink says, running over with Geno raised over his head

"Hello. What happened to you guys?"Geno asks

"Error lost control of himself, was hallucinating and attacked us. We were transported here. You?"I reply

"Same story as you guys, except with Reaper. Something is seriously wrong."He says

"Ya, but if Error broke free, so can Reaper! I'm sure it's okay!"Ink says optimistically

"I just hope he's okay..."Geno says

"What happened to your eye, Geno?"I ask

"What do you mean?"He responds

"It looks like it's melting to put it best that I can."I say

"Oh, that's normal. Heh. It's what I hide behind the glitches...which is an ability taken away from me as well as my other attacks and abilities."He says

"Oh. Ok.....You lost your abilities too, huh?"I say

"We all did, I bet. No abilities mean no trouble for them of course."Ink says

"Ya, and they don't have good plans for us. E!Pap just came back and well...he isn't the same."Geno says

"E!Pap is here? Did they take him? Those little-!"I say

"Yes, and I wouldn't do anything if I were you. They seemed to take away more than his code for his attacks and abilities like they did to us. They took away a large piece of him. His memories."Geno says

"What?!"Ink and I exclaim

"Ya and I think I could fix that if I get untied."He says

"Oh, right!"Ink says

Ink and I begin to untie him. He asks questions and we answer him. I give him the full truth, while Ink focused more on the positive side. We free him and he happily thanks us. He reaches into his jacket and takes out a book. 

E!Pap's scrapbook.

"Come on, he's this way! "Geno says

We head through the cell. It's a lot bigger than I once thought. Partly because some barred walls were broken, connecting cells. I start to hear a voice call out. I could hear the fear in it.

"Hello? Hello? Hello! Somebody? Please! Answer me! Hello? Anyone? Am I just by myself? Hello?"It calls, getting louder the more we walked

Then, we see him. He sits against the bars, hugging his knees and hiding his face. All his glitch signs were gone, and with what seemed to be his energy or liveliness. He just looked lonely, scared and sad. The complete opposite of his usual self.
