Welcome everyone to my first ever fanfiction! I'm obviously a no0b at this so cut me some slack!

I will try to keep this story "realistic" to the movie, but I will add OC's. This is the first book of what I hope to be a trilogy, this begins during the last seconds of the movie during the first rain

Please Enjoy!

CHAPTER 1: TOXIC RAIN

9 and 7 stare up at the sky, awestruck. The twins were behind them, equily as mystified by the miracle that was occuring. As the rain started to fall 7 shifted her gaze to 9 and said,

"Well, what do we do now?"

9 muttered something about how it was their world now and they could do whatever they wanted, but clearly his mind was far away, completly in a trance as he stared into the sky.

"We should probably get inside 9." 7 stated. The sound of his name instantly brought 9 back to reality. He turned to 7 and said,

"Right, you take the twins inside...I'll catch up."

"I understand, don't take too long okay?"

When 9 didn't respond, 7 simply turned on her heel and called the twins to follow her.

The longer 9 stared at the rain, the more uncomfortable he felt.

"Something isn't right..." he told himself, "But why? We defeated the B.R.A.I.N. and brought life back to the world, so why do I feel like something is wrong?"

Because the others aren't here

It was a random thought, yet 9 knew it was true. How could he be proud of himself when they had all died because of him?

There's no point on thinking about it, I just have to move forward, he thought to himself. With his confidence restored, he was just about to go and meet up with 7 and the twins when...something happened.

9 couldn't explain it, he was just about to look away from the rain to see where his friends had gone when a single raindrop fell on his optic. This didn't seem out of the ordinary, since he had been out in the rain for several minutes, but 9 instantly knew it was different.

His vision went completely bright, and he could see nothing but pure white light. Then, things started to emerge from the light. One by one, he saw the spirits of his 5 lost friends appear, the same spirits that had caused this rain just moments before. But as soon as they appeared, they quickly faded, leaving just their numbers. 1, 2, 5, 6, 8. He saw them as clearly as he had just seem 7's face just moments before. Suddenly, the numbers...changed. They seemed to morph together, spinning endlessly, until the only thing 9 saw was...himself.

Then everything went dark.
