I've been doing good as of late. Here's to hoping I can stay on track now and not get lazy lol. XD
" ... Mpf... "
The little vamp groaned out, slowly opening his eyes and looking around. Finding the ghost, zombie and mummy looking down at him strangely. Grinning shyly, he mumbled out.
" Um... good, morning...?"
" Oh Thatch thank goodness you're awake. "
Ra breathed out, sighing and smiling in great relief. Casper chuckling and helping the vamp to his feet.
" We've been waiting for you to wake up. We think Maria is looking for us and we need to get out of here quick. Do you know the way out from here? "
Thatch blinked and began looking around, as if in a daze with this house here. This, kiddie colored house. Soon walking over to the drawn window and peering out of it. ' Where... are we even at? ' He pondered mentally. ' I don't recognize this area at all. Did Richard draw it recently, or...? ' This was weirding him out big time. He'd never seen this area of this drawn world, and he'd been here since the beginning. This was so unusual...
" ... Let's get out of this house you guys. "
Thatch said softly, still feeling unnerved.
" Maybe then I'll get a better clue of where we are. I... I haven't seen this area before... "
The trio all frowned to this, a bit worried to hear this. Thatch was the only one who remotely knew this sketch book. And if even he didn't recognize this area, they could be in some serious trouble. Slowly, the four headed out of the house (sure Maria was gone by this point) and the three began to follow Thatch once more. They were sure he'd be able to find his way out here alright. After all, he really WAS the only one who knew this place. They had no other choice than to trust him really. Who else COULD they trust?
Looking around more and more, they began to find... sunlight, hitting them. Looking up to find an artificially drawn sun. Amazed to find it felt like real sunlight coming from a fake sun. How was that even possible though? ... Heh. It was probably just as possible as having drawings themselves being real in a humans sketchbook.
" AH-HA! "
The group jumped terribly to this sudden call, turning just in time to find a yellow and green blur SLAM into Mantha, running away as the zombie fell to the ground. Casper and Ra quickly helping her to her feet.
" Are you ok?! "
Casper yelped, sounding quite worried for his friend here. Mantha, however, while wanted to assure she was alright, quickly found she couldn't. She... she felt weak. And growing weaker. Something was wrong. Immediately she began to search for her rose, worried it may have taken some damage when she was knocked over. Soon horrified to find... her rose, was no where in sight! ' That blur-! ' She mentally connected, realizing IMMEDIATELY what, and who, had run into her.
" Maria-! "
She gasped out.
" That was Maria! She stole my rose! "
The boys seemed to grow a little pale to hearing this (well, Ra at least), before Thatch jumped in.
" W-w-well! Let's not stand here! We gotta get it back! That Rose is connected to you! If it wilts, so do you! "
Like lightning the children ran, not missing a second. Not wanting anything bad to happen to their zombie friend... along the way they could see some rose petals scattered on the ground. Red petals, along with Maria's yellow rose petals. She was tearing them apart. The only difference was... Manthas rose was real, not fake. If they didn't hurry...
A short one sorry. I gotta pace this juuuuust right. And I think I got it. ;p
Hope you all enjoyed~!
