Chapter seventeen

Walten was stirred awake when he felt himself bounce a bit. Groaning a bit, he slowly opened his eyes only to see Ron looking down at him with a worried expression.

"R-Ron?" he weakly called out, but the blue tubby simply hushed him while running his fingers across Walten's hair, "Just relax Walten" Ron softly said as the white tubby closed his eyes, enjoying the soothing gesture before cracking one eye open to look at Ron. "What happened?" he asked with a slight frown.

Ron slightly sigh out and started to explain to him.

(Flashback)

"Ugh...too bright" Ron groan out as he covered his eyes, shielding them from the bright sunlight as Dipsy simply looked around, not bothered by the bright light.

After getting used to the light, Ron slowly removed his arm and looked around, seeing the way the ground looked. "Are those burn marks...and blood!?" Ron commented out as he walked towards one of the blood stains as Dipsy followed behind. As the blue tubby was examining the stain, he was startled when he heard Dipsy letting out small growls and whines and looks back to see the green tubby staring at something with a slight distressed expression. When Ron looked at where Dipsy was staring, he let out a gasp when he saw a spider-like red tubby and when he looked at Dipsy, he suddenly realized that the red tubby was probably one of the four tubbies that were living in the mainlands.

Ron slowly reached out and grabbed Dipsy's arm, causing him to look down at the blue tubby, "It'll be alright Dipsy" Ron softly said which Dipsy slowly nodded and placed his hand on top of Ron's head in a slight comforting way, making Ron smile.

But as Ron looked around, he was shocked to find the missing duo and started running towards them.

"Walten!" he called out, but as he got close enough, Ron stopped when Tinky Winky let out a loud growl, warning him to stay back as he held the sleeping tubby close.

Ron quickly raised his hands, showing the purple tubby that he meant no harm, but let out a low sigh when he heard growling from behind. "Dipsy stop" Ron firmly told the green tubby, whom instantly stop growling before turning his attention back to Tinky Winky, whom was baring his sharp teeth.

"Tinky...its me Ron, remember?" Ron slowly said as Tinky Winky was quickly looking over him, slowly deciding whether or not the blue tubby was a threat. Soon enough, Tinky Winky slowly stop growling and nodded before looking down at the white tubby with a concern expression.

Slowly, Ron moved closer and kneel down beside him and looked at Walten, noticing that the wound on his shoulder was showing signs of healing, but still need to be checked out. The blue tubby placed the bag down and pulled out a thick roll of bandage and look at Tinky Winky, "I need to cover the wound" Ron calmly said making the purple tubby looking at him before letting out a low grunt and nodded, letting Ron get closer and soon started to wrap Walten's injured shoulder.

"Release me!" Ron quickly looked back to see Dipsy walking towards him, seemingly to be holding someone and instantly knew who it was.

"Noo Noo" Ron called out as the cyborg was trying to get himself free, but the green tubby have a tight grip on the cyborg's left arm. Frowning a bit, Ron reached into the bag and pulled out a rope, "Bring him here" Ron asked Dipsy, whom instantly walk close and sat down, placing Noo Noo in front of him.

Noo Noo simply growl at Ron, "Let me go" he growl out which didn't affect Ron as he raised his hand out to Noo Noo's neck, reaching around to the back of his neck and up to the hairline, pressing the near invisible button which instantly deactivated Noo Noo, putting him in sleep mode and started to tie his arms and legs.

"There must be some kind of malfunction" Ron commented it mostly to himself.

Suddenly his ears twitches when he picked up the faint sound of a helicopter and looked up to see the military helicopter coming from the distance and became a bit worried.

"Stay here" Ron told the two infected before standing up and walking towards where the helicopter was starting to land, raising his arm a bit to protect his eyes from the harsh winds. After it landed, the door slid open and a few military guards stepped out along with the General, whom Ron recognized.

"General Miles" Ron greeted with a nod which Miles nodded back before smiling, "At ease soldier" he said before becoming serious, "We had got a message from the station" Miles said, wanting an explanation which Ron started to explain the best as he could.

After the explanation, Ron led the general to the two infected and Walten, but they couldn't get close enough to the white tubby as Tinky Winky held him close and growling at them.

"Calm down Tinky, we can help Walten" Ron tried to explain, but the purple tubby growl at him causing Dipsy to growl back in retaliation.

After nearly five minutes of trying to calm and explain to Tinky Winky, he wouldn't back down which resulted in having to use a strong tranquilizer on the purple tubby.

"You sure this is safe Miles?" Ron asked the General whom nodded though looked a bit unsure, "I'm sure, hopefully he would be knocked out long enough for us to make it to the military base" Miles said before aiming the gun at the growling tubby and pulled the trigger which the dart had hit Tinky Winky's right shoulder, causing him to yelp out and instantly pulled the dart out, but it was too late.

After a few seconds, Tinky Winky had passed out which the solders had immediately bound the purple tubby and brought them into the helicopter. Luckily Dipsy was easier to handle which Ron had handcuffed him, just for safety and the green tubby trusted him and followed him in the helicoptered.

(End Flashback)

"...and we're probably near the base" Ron finished explaining.

Humming a bit, Walten closed his eyes for a moment before opening them and started to sit up with Ron's help. Looking around, he saw Dipsy sitting on the other side, slightly playing with the handcuffs with a bored expression and beside him was a cage with Tinky Winky in, looking slightly awake, but looking a bit drugged.

"D-Did he cause any problems?" Walten asked which Ron shook his head, "No, after we got in the helicopter and placed him in the cage for safety reasons, he woke up though he's a bit unresponsive" the blue tubby explained.

"Maybe the infected blood burned the sedatives faster than a normal tubby" Walten explained which Ron nodded, trusting Walten's explanation.

Soon footsteps was heard beside them and they turn to see the General. "General Miles" Walten greeted with a nod. "At ease guardian" Miles said with a chuckle before sitting down. "As soon as we land, we have to bring the infected to the lab for simple observation" Miles told them, "Just for observation?" Walten asked him which Miles nodded, "Of course, we won't run any test on them" Miles told him.

Letting out a sigh, Walten simply lean against Ron, still feeling tired and watched Tinky Winky for a few minutes before faintly remember his dream and frown a bit.

'What was that dream about?' he asked himself, trying to figure it out.

As soon as they landed, Walten and Ron were brought to the medical room while the infected were brought to the lab and Noo Noo was brought to the cells.

After getting checked up on, Walten and Ron were instructed to at least stay in the room for the night for observation which they agreed.

Soon enough both of them were in bed for the night and as Ron was sleeping away, Walten was laying on the bed, lost in thought.

'What will happen now?' Walten thought, 'I hope Tinky is behaving...hopefully I could see him tomorrow' he thought before rolling to his side and closed his eyes to slowly fall asleep.

'Will I have that dream again?'
