Joy noticed right away.
"Hurry!" She cried out. not having a handle would be hard to steer but she had to try. They yelled the song louder as the rocket propelled forwards by a rainbow at the ends of the brooms. Joy looked down and gasped at the front of the wagon that was now disappearing as well.
"Louder!" Bing Bong yelled and sang out louder as the wagon went forwards the ramp above. Joy sang so loud she felt her throat becoming hoarse. They hadn't realized though that as they rolled up the steep hill of memories to the ramp, a front wheel was disappearing. They fell backwards, not having enough upward thrust, and tumbled back down to ground.
"Come on!" Joy said and picked herself up. She ran to the wagon and noticed the tire was completely gone.
"No.." The second front tire began to disappear. "What are we gonna do?"
Bing Bong looked at it. "I suppose we can try to keep the front up, but I don't know if that would work.
"Well, we have to try." Joy climbed in, followed by Bing Bong, and grabbed hold of the front. Bing Bong helped and together they both lifted up the front end. "Who's your friend who likes to play? Bing Bong Bing Bong!" Joy sang out and the rocket moved forwards, but it was very bumpy.
"Who's rocket makes you yell hurray? Bing Bong Bing Bong!" Bing Bong sang along. It was at that moment where the rocket tripped over the memories and they both tumbled forwards. The rocket itself began to disappear.
"No!" Joy cried out as she watched in horror. The wagon disappeared from their sight.
"What are we gonna do?" Joy asked.
"I'm afraid there's not much we can do now." Bing Bong replied sadly. He looked down and noticed his lower half slowly disappearing. Joy noticed as well.
"No.. you can't go..." Joy said softly, looking up at him.
"I'm sorry.." Bing Bong stretched out his arms and Joy ran to him for a hug. She tried not to cry again when soon all she could feel was air.
She looked up, tears welling in her eyes again as she saw nothing. He was gone. Forgotten. She looked around the dark area, alone. She wasn't quite sure why she hasn't disappeared yet, but dared not to think about it. She fell to the ground again, surrounded by the memories, and waited to be forgotten.
Riley's mother walked into the house.
"We're home! Riley? Riley!" She looked up the stairs then back at Riley's father. He opened the door to Riley's room, and saw nothing. She wasn't there!
"I'll call her cell." Riley's mom said, beginning to type on her phone.
Meanwhile, Riley walked down the sidewalk heading to the bus station.
"Oh, this is terrible.." Fear said under his breath. "Wait, is that someone walking towards us?L-l-let's cross the street."
Suddenly, Riley's phone began to ring. She looked at it and saw it was her mom.
Fear let out a gasp. "Mom! She's onto us!" He began to pace nervously.
"What do we do?" Disgust asked as Fear took out a paper bag and began to breath into it.
"Riley needs to get core memories. We keep going." Anger said as he moved the two knobs forwards on the console. Riley declined the call. At that moment, family island began to crumble. Riley looked both ways before crossing the street to the bus stop where a bus had just pulled in.
Riley purchased a ticket using her mothers' card and went to stand in line to get on the bus. Her phone began to ring suddenly and it was her mom again.
"Oh no, it's mom again." Disgust said, concern filling her voice as Fear blew into his bag more rapidly. "What do we do?"
"Uh.." Anger stuttered. Riley this time turned off her phone and declined. Family island began to shake and crumble more. Pieces of it began to fall into The Dump.
"This is madness! We shouldn't run away!" Anger cried out as Fear popped his bag.
"Let's get this idea out of her head!" Disgust said and tried to grab and pull it out.
Meanwhile, Sadness ran back into Imagination Land to be by herself and get away. Riley didn't need her anymore was all she thought. She flew off on a cloud, crying.
Anger tried himself to get the idea out, but to no avail.
"It's stuck!" He yelled.
"Oh, great!" Disgust scoffed.
"What do you mean, 'it's stuck'?" Fear asked.
"Now what?" Disgust asked. But before anyone could answer, the console began to turn black.
"No no no no no! What is this?" Fear cried out.
Riley boarded the bus as Anger threw a chair at the console by the idea. Fear ran over with a crowbar but only ended up hitting himself with it. Riley searched for a seat.
"How do we stop it?" Fear asked, terrified.
"I got it! Make her feel scared! That'll make her change her mind!" Disgust suggested.
"Brilliant!" Fear said and jumped to the console. He began to push buttons and moved levers.
"I know it's brilliant, do it!" She said.
"Agh! Nothing's working! What? Why isn't it working?"
Anger pushed him out of the way. "Lemme try!"
"Wait, you broke it!" Disgust yelled. All three began to hurriedly push buttons as Riley took a seat.
"Guys, we can't make Riley feel anything..." Fear said gently, realizing partly what was going on.
"What have we done..?" Anger asked softly.
"Oh, I wish Joy was here!" Fear said.
The bus began to leave the station as Riley looked out the window with no emotion.
The three emotions looked at the console as it finished what it intended to do. It turned all black.
