“RIGHT?!”
*SNAP*
The atmosphere changed automatically, everything started to shake! Everything around Gaty was turning white! “W-WHAT DID YOU DO?!” One didn’t say anything. They just closed their eyes with a satisfied smile on their face. Gaty was backed up against her seat. She tried to stay strong but she couldn’t.
She was terrified.
She huddled her legs against her self, her body was shaking.
She closed her eyes and awaited the inevitable. Her mind still thinking of one person, someone whom she wished was by her side right now.
And then…it was all gone

Or so she thought.
Gaty felt a jolt go throughout her body, she opened her mouth with a gasp and lifted herself off the ground. “Wha- Where am I…?” She looked around and examined her surroundings, was she in the woods? There were tall trees everywhere and she instantly noticed something about the grass.
It was green! Yeah, that sounds stupid but she remembered the grass in TPOT was more yellow like, this grass however was its normal green color. So one things was clear. She was NOT back at contestant grounds. She was somewhere else. Unknown territory.
After looking around, Gaty walked down one of the paths in front of her, she didn’t really have any other options. She could try calling out for someone, but she knew that was useless. “Hello? Pin? Fanny? Blackhole?” She still tried it anyway…
Gaty continued trying to call out for her teammates. But the only thing she heard back was the howling of the wind. Gaty was entirely alone. She hated being alone. She felt exposed, scared, in danger. Like something could jump out at her at any mo-
*RUSTLE*
Gaty immediately stopped and turned around. That bush behind her made a noise. What was that..?! “Hello? Who’s there?” Gaty called out to the unknown person. The bush rustled again. Something was DEFINITELY behind there. Gaty looked closer, she could almost see something inside of the bush.
It looked…blue?
“Hiiiii…Gaty!”
Gaty yelled out and ran as fast as she could! Did that…THING follow her hear?! What did she even want with her?! She already signed her stupid contract. What else did she want from her!?
“C’mon…why are you scared?”
The voice echoed back to Gaty, it sounded far away but so close at the same time. Gaty was almost already exhausted, but she had to keep going. She wanted far away from One as she could, she just needed help! Anyone!
“Someone! Please! HELP ME!”
Gaty screamed out but it was lost in the trees.
“It’s just me and you Gaty, we can all the fun together!”
That stupid voice again! Gaty gritted her teeth and turned to yell back!
“JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!!!”
She knew yelling back was useless, but didn’t care. That thing continued to torment her it made Gaty’s blood boil. She turned back around to keep running and-
*CRASH*
The pathway had ended and she didn’t even notice until she crashed face first into a tree. She fell backwards onto the ground reeling from pain.
“Ow ow ow ow ow.”
Gaty winced and gasped from the pain, using her legs she pushed herself up against the tree. She her face has been damaged before, she instantly remembers getting stabbed by Pin that one time because of Robot Flower. Luckily, it was only the top part of her, but that pain didn’t compare to what she was feeling right now.
Some of her planks were showing cracks in them, mostly ones that were near her face. Her paint had become scratched, the periwinkle was being replaced by that ugly brown color. One of her hinges was hanging in my a thread, well nail.
Gaty quietly sobbed, it hurt so much. She looked ahead and faced her assailant.
But no one was there.
Gaty eyes scanned through the darkness, but that faint blue color was nowhere to be found.
Was she even there in the first place…? Or is One messing with her.
“WHERE ARE YOU?!?!” Gaty screamed into the darkness. The only replies were crickets chirping in the night. Gaty let her back fall against the tree and began to cry.
Gaty sobbed onto her knees, she was gonna die alone, no one will even know she died. She’ll never be recovered. She’ll never see her team, friends, or…Two again.

No.
With all her might, Gaty lifted herself up. She had to do something. She had to find someone…or something that could help her. She needed to see her friends again. No matter what.
Gaty scanned through her surroundings again. Looking for any possible way to escape these woods. That’s when she saw something. One of the paths had a shining light to it. It could be the moonlight! Gaty thought. Gaty walked toward the light.
______________________________________
Gaty had lost track on how long she was walking. But she knew she was making progress. The light was getting brighter and…is that…the entrance?!
Gaty sped up. She wanted out of this place no matter what. The light began shining brighter. And then. She was out.
And what she saw was…amazing. Massive open green fields of grass, plant life growing exponentially, massive purple and green…hills? Mountains?…Mushrooms? Ok those looked kinda weird.
But what Gaty saw next made her scream in joy. “The Hotel” It was right in front of her! Sure, it was a still a walk away but she felt massively relieved.
But that changed when she looked closer. Was the hotel always orange…?
No…something was wrong. This wasn’t a place she recognized. The wasn’t the hotel Two had made. This was someone else’s.
“Hotel OJ?”
“Ok…still don’t know where I am” Gaty thought too herself. “But maybe someone from there can help me! I hope…” Gaty tried to keep herself positive. But she worried that the people there would think she’s crazy. But at this point. What other options are there. This was the best shot she had.
Gaty looked down at her legs, they were shaking with exhaustion and cold. She had to keep going. Gaty took a deep breath and walked forward. She had too find a way home no matter what.
