Dendy stared at K.O., shock still overcoming her face.

"K-K.O.?!" she stuttered. "You're alive! You would not believe how worried I've been!"

"Oh, Dendy I'm so happy to see you!" K.O. said excitedly. "You would not believe what I've been through the past few days! It's been horrible! It's cold out here, I'm hungry, my powers aren't working right, I think I got a rash on my-"

"K.O. STOP!" Dendy yelled. "Calm down. We can reflect on your story later. Do you have any idea where you are?"

"I don't know where I am, and I can't remember anything from the past few days."

"Interesting. Possible slight Amnesia from impact after the launch."

"Launch?" K.O. said scratching his head. "What launch?"

"Perhaps I should start from the beginning. A few days ago, you and I walked to the bodega after school, where I gave you the object you are viewing me on."

"I remembered you giving it to me. I kept trying to get it to do something over the past few days, and I finally got it open a few minutes ago. What is this thing?"

"It's essentially a pocket version of my hackpack. It's an experimental model that I gave to you to test out. Think of it like a phone version. It has a simplified interface with a few main features. The one we're using right now is the video chat feature." Dendy then took out a notepad and began writing on it. "Video function, success."

"Wow. This is great! But, can you get back to what happened?"

"My apologies. Anyways, I gave you the mini hackpack and you went into work. I stayed around the plaza doing some coding and customizing a few Pow Cards. You then texted me after a few hours saying there was a huge rush and you were incredibly worn out. So, I thought I'd be a good friend and bring you a popsicle. But by then time I got there, there was a robot attack."

"Yeah, I'm starting to slowly remember. We were attacked by Shannon and an army of Raymonds and Jethro. We beat them pretty handily."

"Then they summoned a giant Daryl robot."

K.O. stopped in his tract. "I REMEMBER NOW!" K.O. then had a flashback. The giant Daryl robot was summoned, and it created a forcefield around it, trapping K.O. inside. "He was there just for me. Cowboy Daryl must have saw me as the biggest threat, or something."

"We tried to break the forcefield down, but it was no use. You put up a good fight however."

"I did some damage, but he hit really hard. I punched him so much, that's how I bruised my knuckles. He wore me down, which explains why I felt sore."

"He then grabbed you and attempted to shoot you with a laser. You managed to jump out of his grasp and attempted to punch his eye. He then attempted to shoot you, and there was an explosion. It created a smoke cloud throughout the plaza, and we heard you screaming as your voice faded away. We weren't able to see where you landed."

"I remember flying through the air, and then I blacked out. I guess I blacked out upon impact."

"It would appear the impact also affected your memory. You might have some slight head trauma and a possible concussion if your memory was affected from the impact."

"That doesn't sound good. At least now I know what happened. Now we just have to figure out where I am, so you guys can find me."

"The mini hackpack does have a built-in map function. Try bringing it up."

K.O. gave a look of uncertainty. "Uh, how?" he said smiling nervously and rubbing the back of his head.

"It's a touchscreen interface, K.O. Take your finger and touch the right side of the screen."

K.O. did as instructed and touched the right side of the screen. A huge circle appeared, looking like a home button on a phone. He pressed it, and he was taken to a menu looking like a phone user interface.

"Woah," K.O. said. "Let's see. Video chat, internet, coding, games, emulators... MAP!" He pressed the icon quickly, a rotating circle icon with "tracking location," below it appeared. K.O. squatted up eagerly and down with wide eyes. "If you can track me, you can find me, and I'll be out of here!" His dreams were quickly dashed as the app crashed on him and took him back to the video chat.

"Seems the map function is not ready," Dendy said. She took out the notepad again and was about to start writing.

"DENDY!" K.O. said angrily. "This is bad! I need to get out of here! I don't think I can survive in here! There are all these weird robot animals, and bees, AND MORE BEES!"

"Calm yourself K.O.," Dendy said. "My apologies for being too focused on my work. I do understand you are not it a desired predicament. People of the plaza have been searching for you for the past few days."

"Oh my gosh that reminds me!" K.O. said in a sudden realization. "I need to talk to my mommy! She's probably freaking out right now! I also need to let Rad and Enid know I'm ok! Is there any way you can take your hackpack to the plaza?"

"I can, K.O. While I do so, tell me everything that's happened over the past few days and describe the locations you've been. This might help us determine a potential location."

K.O. picked up the mini hackpack and began walking, telling Dendy his tale. He told her everything, from the cybermokeys, the cyberbear attack, and being chased by bees. "And I then I fell off a ledge down a waterfall. It's been horrible out here. I'm surprised T.K.O. hasn't had anything to say."

"Quite the fascinating story, K.O.," Dendy said.

"I thought it would be easy and I would be home by now. Eating spaghetti and watching Dynamite Watkins on the news with mommy and Mr. Gar." K.O. then sat down against a tree, tired. "I just wish this was all over," he said sadly.

"I'm surprised by your demeanor, K.O. I don't believe I've ever seen you so downtrodden. But I think I can raise your spirits. I have arrived at the plaza." She then hit a button and the camera shifted from her face to the front of the Bodega.

"The bodega," K.O. said as his eyes sparkled. "I never thought I'd see you again! Oh, if I could just go inside you one more time!"

"You might want to phrase that better next time K.O. I believe your mom and Mr. Gar are in here. I'm sure they'll be relieved to know you're safe."

Dendy then walked into the store. Gar and Carol were standing next to a shelf, talking.

"He has to be out there somewhere Gene," Carol said, with a worried look on her face. "He's tough enough to survive a crash, and smart enough to find a way to survive. I know he's out there somewhere. I know my son, Gene. He's probably out there waiting for us to find him"

"I'm trying to stay optimistic, Carol, but it's been three days," Gar said. "We've looked at all the nearby areas, sent out search parties, I even reached out to an old friend at P.O.I.N.T., we haven't found anything. I think it might be time we…"

Carol's face turned to pure anger. She grabbed Gar and pinned him against one of the shelves. "Don't even THINK about saying that!" she said in a furious rage.

"Carol! Calm down!" Gar responded as he pushed her off him, and then gripped her by the shoulders. "I want to find him too! I want to keep looking, but we've exhausted all our resources!"

"I'm not giving up on my boy, Gene!" Carol screamed back, pushing Gar off her. "I raised him by myself! He's all I got left! Especially after his father…"

"Mommy! Mr. Gar! Please stop! I'm ok!" K.O. said, with a worrying look on his face.

Carol looked over and her face lit up. She let go of Gar and rocketed towards Dendy's screen. "K.O.!"

She stopped in front of the screen and her eyes watered up. "K.O. sweetie! Where are you? Are you hurt? Are you ok?" Tears started to streak down.

K.O. started to shed tears as well. He smiled. "I'm ok, mommy. I'm ok."
