Marshmallow's P.O.V

It took a while for Bow and Dough to calm down. They sat and talked for ages, Bow explaining what happened on the show. Apple was almost as confused as I was, but she happened to have popcorn on her. I felt like questioning it but I really wanted it, so I kept quiet and took some. 

'Mm, sweet!' I chirped with my mouth stuffed with popcorn.

Ages after they chattered about their lives, hopes and dreams, they turned to us and took our hands, Dough taking Apple's and Bow taking mine. Me and Apple didn't have time to ask them what they were doing before they gripped us tighter and took to the skies, me and Apple helplessly tailing behind. It took almost no time at all to reach the clouds. The speed of the wind was blocking our mouths, making it harder to breathe. We took our spare hand and covered our mouths to help. 

'WHERE ARE WE GOING!?' Apple screamed, trying to fight the whooshing of the wind.

'Why, to save a friend!' boomed Bow.

'WHAT DO YOU MEAN?' I yelled slowly.

'Evil Leafy won't stay there for long, there's an exit!' Dough explained, somehow sounding clear though he spoke normally with this noise.

Me and Apple looked at each other once again, and attempted to shrug.

'GOING UP!' Announced the two spirit siblings in unison. They both rose above the skies and we saw nothing but blue sky and the clouds below us for a change. The ring of the atmosphere was clearly visible in the distance. The wind was much thinner up here for a change. The sky was a darker blue fading into purple this time. Little baby stars twinkled above us as me and Apple stared at them in awe. 

'Wait, how do you know where to go?' Asked Apple.

'Oh, we don't. We're just making a pit stop at the show setting until we find out where we have to go!' said Bow oddly joyfully.

'Why fly above, though?' I questioned.

'Well, just in case they come out, we're going overground!' She replied. It made sense at least.

The two finally lowered down to the clouds, and Apple and I instantly covered our mouths again. The evaporating clouds turned into rain and drenched us both. Lucky ghosts had the rain go right through us.

We finally found our way to any form of land, and I could not believe what I was 'welcomed' to. The floor was burnt and grey as sticks were set on fire. The bushes were stripped of their leaves. The egg-patterned hills in the distance were perfectly cut in half, as if she had spare time and just wanted to mess with us. The trees were cut down and set ablaze as the stools stood tall.

They dropped us onto a tree stool to avoid touching the smoking floor. 

'Wait, gimme a sec, I need to send an important message.' Bow said out of nowhere.

We all nodded and watched her as she looked as if someone was draining the spirit out of her. Me and Dough seemed disturbed but Apple saw it as somewhat 'cool'.

The hell was she doing..?

Diamond's P.O.V

Me, Mic and Paper had no idea how to react, but the jawbreaker seemed to shake rapidly.

'Wait, let me go over to her!' Loser pleaded. Mic had to go and block the head to make sure she didn't hear.

Paper agreed and put the jawbreaker on the floor and we all watched it roll to her. Pin didn't seem to notice. The jawbreaker gently hit her on the back, and she flinched and turned around in a panic. She had shed so many tears half of her seemed to be soaked. She looked like she just encountered her biggest fear. She looked at the jawbreaker and instantly wiped all of tears. We knew it was our cue to hide, so we all jumped out of the way and climbed onto the tree, Paper luckily having the best view.
