When Puppycorn woke, he could hear worried talking from infront of him. He groaned, hearing the happy sigh of relief.

"What happened? You passed out..." he heard Goggles say. He gulped, the memory flooding back to him.

He felt something cold- a rag- gently be put onto his forehead.

"Huh? Who's here?" Goggles asked him, getting the pup to shake more.

"The one who blinded me."

"...okay, boss."

the crinkle of paper, the steps away, the shaken breaths, the moving of fabric.

He knew this was a bad idea.
