I stared at the pebble in my hand. What did it do? Who were they..? They looked at us with what would possibly be the same questions in their heads. The stool seemed to be smoking, as if someone lit it on fire.

Mic looked at me with an expression of, 'Who are they?!?!'

I answered her physical question with, 'I don't know, ask Taco when we get there!'

The four suddenly looked at us with a blank face, and the X looked terrified. I didn't feel safe. I grabbed Mic my the arm and she looked at me with a confused expression. I slowly backed away as the four started to shiver. The X looked at me and gave me a thumbs up, like i was doing the right thing.

The four screeched louder than Mic could ever hope to scream. Out of nowhere, my non-existent ears felt like they would bleed the blood I didn't even have in my body, and i started shivering like crazy. I was working SO hard not to pass out, and my eyes felt super heavy. I managed to turn my head and it looked like Microphone was suffering as much as me. Then everything went black.



I woke up and the first thing I saw was a worksheet, and a pencil staring at me like she was waiting there the whole time for me to wake up. I groaned, and I looked to my right. Microphone was here too..? But if I was here, why did the X give me a thumbs up..? I would have to think about that later.

'Hey girl, you alright yet..?'

The pencil asked me the question with a hint of sassy in her voice. She had bags under her eyes, how long was she in here? I didn't wanna end up like that..

'Yeah, I think so...' I mumbled.

'Well, you better get to the maths.'

'Why, what if I don't?'

'Screech.'

Wait, I was here because of the four? But.. why? I didn't do anything to him! Oh well.. might as well get to the maths. There was already a pencil on the desk, how lucky.

'That one's on me.' Pencil said to me. I guessed that was her name as that's how they work in Object World. She smiled, and I smiled back. She then turned around and talked to Match, assuming her name again, and started gossiping about Bracelet. Or is is Bracelety? I don't know yet.

Then the four entered the room through the door at the other end of the classroom I never paid attention to. He looked at me with the same blank expression, but did nothing. I waited and waited, but nothing happened.

I have to get out of here.

I have to make sure Suitcase doesn't leave.

I have to make sure Nickel doesn't come back and torture her.

I have to see Bow and the others one more time.

I have to make sure everyone's alright.
