DG was holding a necklace that was given to her by her best friend Jebidiah Cain who likes to be called Jeb with her left hand which has a ring on her finger when she and Glitch walked up to a house where people were getting badly beaten. She'd known he was alive because of the feel of the necklace. She was a little confused about the situation but wanted to help.
"And with only a half a brain I know we need to get out of here." Glitch said
Then he started to leave when DG grabbed his arm and stopped him.
"Wait I know who those people are. They're the Cain family. We need to help them." DG said
DG picked up a stick and ran over there to help. But when she got there it all disappeared.
"What happened?" DG asked
They found the source of the issue there.
"What's that?" DG asked
"It's a T.D.E.S.P.H.T.L." Glitch said
The he realized she didn't know what it meant.
"A tri-Dimensional energy stored projected holographic time loop. Nifty little thing. I think I invented it." Glitch said
"So it's all fake?" DG asked with relief in her voice
"No it happened. Sometime or another." Glitch said
Then DG started to worry again.
"Why would they have it playing over and over again if there was no one here to watch it?" DG asked
"Well I think it…" Glitch started
Then DG noticed something. It was made of all metal and looked like the old divers suits from the other side. Then she knocked on it. There was a response.
"There's someone in there." DG said
"Or something." Glitch said
Then DG went to go get the hammer that was on the anvil by the house. When she got back there she opened it up. When it was opened DG recognized the person that was in there as Wyatt Cain, the man who was like another father to her and the man who taught her to how to shoot, fish and how to survive in the wild. Then Wyatt toppled over to his hands and knees.
"Papa are you Okay?" DG asked worriedly
Then she went to help him up. He looked her in the eyes and knew exactly who it was. It was the eyes of the girl who captured his sons heart. The girl who is like a daughter to him.
"DG where are they?" He asked hoarsely
"I don't know papa. But I promise you that we will find mama and Jeb no matter what the cost." DG said
Then after they told him what was playing the loop they went to go find his things. They also found some soap to clean him up. Once he was all clean he put his clothes on but DG still had his coat, hat, badge and gun holster on, she was even holding the little horse that was her friend Jeb's. She had a similar one back in Kansas. He used his razor to cut his hair and shave. Once he looked respectable he stood up and walked to DG.
"How long were you in there papa?" DG asked
"Since that was a sapling." Wyatt said pointing to a tree
"So papa how are we going to find mama and Jeb?" DG asked
"First we find Zero." Wyatt said
"While we're doing that can you help me find my robo parents?" DG asked
"How did you know that they were not human?" Wyatt asked
Wyatt knew who DG was in the O.Z. and he was worried about why she was here. And if she remembers everything from before she left the O.Z. all at once then he has no idea what that will do to her in the long run. He had to make sure the memories came out slowly.
"I don't really know. I just know." DG said
Then Wyatt gave her a look that he meant business and didn't believe her.
"Fine. Jeb and I heard you, mama and my robo parents talking awhile back." DG said
"Better. Now then lets go to Milltown." Wyatt said
"Milltown is over here!" DG asked shocked
"Yep. I should warn you the way over is through the fields of the pa pay." Wyatt said
Then Glitch gasped at the warning.
"What's pa pay?" DG asked
"Some type of animal that I can not explain and they can naw people in half within 30 seconds." Wyatt said
Once Wyatt got all his things from DG they headed off to the old road. DG was starting to believe in the stories that her robo Dad and Wyatt told her growing up.
"I guess the stories that you told me are true, huh, papa." DG said
"Yep. And all the stories that Hank told you are true as well." Wyatt said
"So when he said 'all of life's answers are found along the old road' kind of was true also." DG asked
"Well the old road is what the locals call the brick road. And the brick road is the main road in all of the O.Z." Wyatt said
Once they got worried and started to look around.
"Footprints. Only a few hours old. One of them is hurt. Right leg is dragging." Wyatt said
"Yeah that's hank. One of the long coats shot him." DG said
Then DG started to walk off.
"Hey DG. Little heads up before you loose yours. Runners hate water that's why they stinky so badly. So keep your noses." Wyatt said
"My sinuses are flaring." Glitch said
They walked more until DG saw white gewy stuff with a blue tint.
"What's that." DG asked as she started to it
"What's what? AH! Don't touch that. That's a predigestive enzyme the pa pay runners use to pre tenderize their meat. Come on let's go." Wyatt said
Then DG saw something.
"There's some one in there." DG said
"An Advanced hunter party must have snared it. We better get out of here before their friends come back." Wyatt said
"We can't just leave him here papa." DG said
"If you snatch a dinner from a runner, you best be prepared to become its replacement and I'm not going to let that happen. Let it be." Wyatt said
There was a moan.
"The pour thing must be scared to death." DG said
"All right come on. Let's go." Wyatt said
"Hey papa, can I borrow your razor?" DG asked
Then DG holds out her hand. But Wyatt doesn't give it. Instead he cuts the thing out himself. Once it's out it starts to roar and DG gets scared. Wyatt noticed and points his gun at him. Then the roar becomes a whimper.
"You want that bad attitude dripping from your ears?" Wyatt asked
Then something came up behind them and bit Wyatt in the leg. And he screams in pain.
"Run go!" Wyatt shouts
Then they head off with their new addition. They keep running while Wyatt shouts run. Then they reach a cliff.
"Wrong turn." Glitch said
"Go!" Wyatt said
"The fall might kill us." Glitch said
"Well, they definitely will." Wyatt said
Wyatt keeps shooting the runners while the new member jumps off the cliff to the river. Wyatt comes to DG and Glitch.
"Jump on the count of three. One…" Wyatt said
"THREE!" Glitch shouts
Then they jump off with a scream. They reach a dirt bank. DG and Wyatt went to find wood for a fire. DG stopped to start the fire.
"Hey, you want to come closer to the fire? Warm up?" DG asked
"Should of left me to die." He said
"Oh, great. A basket case." Glitch said
DG stands up and walks over to him with Wyatt coming back with more wood. The new comer growls and takes DG's hand. Glitch and Wyatt come over there to protect DG from the new guy.
"Stay right there." Wyatt said pointing his gun at the stranger
"It's okay. We're all friends here." DG said trying to defuse the tension
The stranger put DG's hand between both of his and goes like the palm readres from the other side.
"You are sad. Miss your mother. Miss your father. They miss you too." He said
"My names DG. What's yours?" DG said
Then he writes raw in the dirt.
"Raw. Well, it's certainly to the point." Glitch said
Then raw snarled.
"Hey your injured." DG said
"He's a veiwer." Wyatt said
DG gave him a questionable look.
"Viewers are like psychics. But instead of seeing with their minds. They see with their hearts. Azka-d abducts his kind gets her alchemists to suck the second sight right out of their heads." Glitch said
"He could be a big help." DG said
"Look. The O.Z. is a bit different than Kansas. But here trust no one." Wyatt said
Then he toppled over in pain. DG And Glitch rush over to him.
"Let's hope that those runners don't have fang pox." Glitch said
Then raw came over with stuff in his hand.
"Heal wound. Sooth." He said
Then he put his handful of stuff and healed Wyatt's wound. Raw began to read him.
"Brave man. Good man. Tin man." Raw said
"Oh, I might of known you were a tin man What with that attitude." Glitch scoffs
"I thought you said you were a cop papa." DG said
"Tin man is what they call policemen in central city." Glitch said
"I was till Zero found out that I was part or the resistance. That's when I stopped visiting you." Wyatt said
Then Wyatt looked at raw.
"Thanks." Wyatt said
Once warmed up and dried good enough they headed out to Milltown.
"I picked up hank and Emily's trail to the west." Wyatt said as they reached the road
