Chapter five
'So cold' Walten thought as he was rubbing his arms, trying to keep himself warm as he was walking through the snow that reached up to his ankles.
He was right since he didn't see Tinky Winky behind him which he was glad. 'Hopefully he'll be alright' Walten couldn't help but think that, finding himself worried for the purple tubby.
Walten shivers more before curling up even more before stopping when he stepped on something smooth and extremely cold. When he looked down, he saw that he stepped on the edge of the frozen lake.
"I-I think t-that the e-exit is on t-the other s-side" Walten commented before looking back down on the ice, slightly testing the durability. 'It should be safe enough' he thought since it would take too long to walk around the large lake and was taking a risk in crossing it.
Walten let out a yelp when he slipped a bit from the smooth surface before quickly settling himself. "Okay...take baby steps" Walten told himself as he was slowly walking across the frozen surface, being careful of not slipping and possibly breaking the ice.
When he was halfway across, his left ear suddenly twitched when he picked up a faint roaring in the distance.
'What was that?' he thought feeling dread slowly building up in his chest. Then he knew that he doesn't want to stick around to find out and quickens his pace, temporarily forgetting about the slippery surface and only managed to make it a few steps when he suddenly lost his footing and fell down, harshly hitting the hard ice, slamming his chin on the surface which he instantly tasted blood in his mouth.
"Fuck..." Walten managed to groan out through his teeth as he pushed himself up, rubbing his jawline to get rid of some of the pain and spat out some blood, staining the ice. Then he heard the same roaring sound, but closer and when Walten looked back, he could barely make out a shadowy figure at the edge of the lake.
'Did the infected custard really do that' Walten asked himself as he could make out how big the figure out though the falling snow before turning away. 'I hope the ice is sturdy enough' he thought as he shakily got to his feet and started moving.
CRACK
Walten panicky looked back to see the figure running towards him and looked down to see some cracks forming on the ice. 'Shit' he panicked and soon started to run.
"ACK!" Walten let out a yell when he suddenly fell through the ice, but barely managed to grip the edge, keeping his head above water, but was instantly hit with the sudden change in temperature and the numbing feeling. 'Need to get out before I get hypothermia' Walten told himself as he slowly starting to pull himself up, his whole body violently shaking from the coldness by both the water and the wind.
'No no no' he started to panic when he started seeing black spots before panicking even more when he heard a familiar screech. 'he managed to follow me here!?' he thought and in his carelessness, he lost his grip and soon plunged into the cold darkness, barely had time to take a deep breath.
'Don't...black out...' Walten tried to keep himself awake and he was slowly swimming up to the surface, but found himself slowly sinking as the freezing numbing feeling slowly disappeared before slowly blacking out.
Xxxxxx
The purple tubby was intensely staring at the surface, waiting for the white tubby to appear, but seconds soon turned into minutes and Tinky Winky found himself becoming worried and gripped the edge of the ice for a moment before making a split decision and suddenly leaped into the freezing water.
He only felt the cold for a moment before it went away and started swimming down, his eyes quickly swaying left and right in hopes of catching a glimpse of the white tubby.
Quickly seeing a white blur, Tinky Winky started pushing himself towards it and saw that it was the white tubby and swam towards the unconscious tubby, wrapping his arm around his waist and started swimming up to the surface.
Letting out a gasp, Tinky Winky easily pulled himself out of the water and out of danger before placing Walten on the snow, watching for any movement. A few moments had passed when he finally saw Walten's chest slowly moving before standing up, picking Walten up bridal style and started heading back to the forest, quickly picking up his pace as he felt the white tubby violently shaking from the freezing cold.
