A/N: Hey, guys! You're probably wondering why I'm so happy! I'm super happy because "Inside Out" won at the Golden Globes on Sunday! Yay! Hey, I just realized that we're already in March and I'm already almost done with this story! Can you believe it? Now that we're up to the eighth chapter, it's time to see what will happen next. Here we go!
Chapter 8
Is this the End?
Sadness' P.O.V.
I ran past by French Fry Forest as I came into Imagination Land. Then, I ran into Cloud Town and I came into a different part of Imagination Land that I've never been to before even though I kept on running.
"Gotta get away, gotta get away, gotta get away…" I huffed.
I didn't notice there was a large rock right in front of me until it was too late. I tripped it over and fell to the ground. My bundle went flying in the air and landed right in front of me.
"Ow!" I groaned painfully, as I pushed myself up.
Tripping to the ground was not fun. I adjusted my glasses and I looked all around the new place.
"Whoa." I said quietly. "What is this place?"
I had no idea where I was, but all I knew was that I lost my friends again just as I looked back and sighed sadly. I picked up my bundle and I saw a waterfall.
"What would a waterfall be doing here in the middle of nowhere?" I asked puzzled.
I wanted to take a closer look, so I walked over to the waterfall and I saw a big, giant log across that could take me to the other side. I climbed on to it and began walking very carefully, trying not to fall. What I also didn't know was that there was a big hole right in the middle until I fell right through it!
"AAAH!" I screamed.
The next thing I knew, my sweater got caught on a branch. I looked down over the water and I knew I was in great danger.
"Help! Help!" I screamed, as I panicked. "Somebody please help me!"
End of Sadness' P.O.V.
Anger's P.O.V.
We were all getting up, groaning in pain. All I wanted to do was apologize to Sadness, but then she had to run away from us again! I was so angry, I kicked some memory orbs away that were right in front of me. Then, I stomped over to Joy just as flames erupted from my head.
"Joy! That was not part of the plan!" I snarled furiously.
"Anger, it's not my fault." said Joy calmly, but seriously. "I didn't make that happen."
"Oh, yeah?" I shouted. "Well, you should've seen how Sadness ran away from us like that!"
Suddenly, Fear jumped in as he panicked, "Now that we lost her again, Riley will never make up with Jordan and we are definitely gonna lose Friendship Island again!"
"Guys, guys! We're not gonna lose Friendship Island again." Joy exclaimed seriously, as she tried her hardest to keep order. "All we need to do is look for Sadness again and bring her back to Headquarters before Riley wakes up."
"Joy, I'm telling you that plan is gonna fail again." Disgust stated. "I looked all over Dream Productions and no one has seen Sadness."
Fear showed us the poster which was now covered in spots of grease and said, "I found our poster in French Fry Forest and the search party was called off because she didn't want us to find her."
"Ah! So Sadness was in Imagination Land before!" exclaimed Joy enthusiastically.
Suddenly, I saw footprints on the ground. I followed them and stopped at the entrance to Imagination Land.
"Anger, where are you going?" Disgust called from behind.
I didn't respond as I stared at the footprints until suddenly, I heard someone screaming for help. I began to listen.
"Hey, Anger…" Joy tried to say.
"Guys, be quiet." I said seriously, as I held out my hand to them.
"Help!" I heard that familiar voice scream in the distance.
Suddenly, Joy, Disgust and Fear began hearing that voice too.
"What is it, bro?" asked Fear softly, as he walked up to me.
My face was broke into a horrorstruck stupor. I turned to my friends and I knew that someone out there was in danger.
"…Kid!" I said horrified.
End of Anger's P.O.V.
Sadness' P.O.V.
"Help me! I'm in great danger!" I screamed.
I had been screaming for help for about ten minutes. My heart was beating very fast. If that branch broke off, then I would be doomed. I felt tears creeping into my eyes. I didn't want to die.
"Oh, guys! Wherever you are, you better hurry before I fall!" I called out tearfully.
"Sadness? Sadness!" I heard Joy calling from a distance.
I looked up and I saw Joy! She found me again! I was so happy that I blinked back the tears away.
"Joy!" I gasped with relief, before I panicked again. "Don't just stand there, help me!"
"Here you go, Sadness. We made you a rescue rope!" Joy announced, as she bended down and held out her hand.
"Out of us!" said Fear proudly.
"Me too." agreed Disgust.
"It's our plan to save you, kid." replied Anger.
"Anger!" I gasped loudly.
"It's okay, Sadness. Just grab on to me!" Joy encouraged to me.
I gulped nervously, took a deep breath and responded, "Okay. Here goes…"
I tried to reach out my hand to Joy's hand, but I couldn't reach that good.
"I can't do it, Joy!" I cried nervously.
"Try a little harder, Sadness." Joy told me. "You can do it!"
I couldn't give up. I wanted to trust her. So I tried again until I finally reached Joy's hand and held on to her.
"Did you get her, Joy?" asked Disgust anxiously.
"I got her, guys!" announced Joy happily, as she turned to them. "I got her!"
"We did it, gang!" cheered Fear happily.
End of Sadness' P.O.V.
Anger's P.O.V.
I was so happy when Joy told us that Sadness was safe and sound. Now I could apologize to her and get her back to Headquarters. Just as we were about to pull Sadness up, I heard a loud crack beneath my feet. I looked down and saw that the log was about to break!
"Uh, guys? The log!" I cried urgently.
Fear saw the log now openly breaking and shouted, "Code red! Code red! The log's openly breaking!"
We all screamed in horror. Pretty much the same way when Riley's Dad got a new job in San Francisco and we had to move, but this was different.
"Go, go, go!" Joy called urgently, just as she pulled Sadness up on time.
We tried to run, but all of a sudden, Joy bumped into Fear, causing him to trip over Disgust and me as we tumbled over to the ground and finally, the giant log broke off and fell with Sadness! We watched in horror and a loud splash was heard from far up above.
"No, Sadness!" screamed Joy, as she covered her mouth and saw Sadness' bundle on the ground.
I ran over to the edge of the cliff and looked down over the water and screamed, "KID!"
End of Anger's P.O.V.
A/N: Bam! You see what I did there, guys? I'm going to leave this chapter off with a cliffhanger! Now, the question is, did Sadness survive the fall or is this really the end of her? Only chapter 9 will tell, so feel free to review this chapter! Oh, just so you guys know, there are three more chapters left until the story is complete!
THANK YOU & to be continued! Orangebird124 is out for now!
