A/N hey there! ThePeaWithGoggles here! I'm sorry for not updating in such a long time!..I got stuff to do and well..it's hasn't been easy, but I'm up and running now! Haha, enjoy!

It took a few hours to find a area to rest for the night. The duo found a abandoned hut that was used quite often back in the earlier years of the war.

A fire was left from the previous group of Plants who came here, a few medical supplies were also left, but most of them were sadly expired.

But fortunately, a box of bandaids were left as well, which was enough for the Plant duo.

For the next few hours, the group of two Plants stayed at the abandoned hut for the rest of the night, one taking guard- which Peater decided to take, while the other kept the fire that was left from the previous Plant team burning.

Nothing to important happened, only a few false alarms due to the sounds of distant crickets and the sounds of pre- time machine Z-Tech breaking down.

What they were really worried about though, was what will lie up ahead.

How long has she sat there, idly staring down at the end of her bed? She didn't know herself. The Cactus has been doing this for the past hour or so, maybe even longer.

The door that led to her room abruptly opened, revealing Hershel and Mystic, both sharing a look of concern.

But none of them spoke up, though. But the silence was broken as the Toxic Peashooter decided to speak up.

"Sarah." He tried to sound as straight forward as he could be. "Mystic and I have..discussed a few things, we need to talk." The Mystic Flower nodded in a agreement.

But the lack of eye contact worried the duo even more, this time. Mystic decided to speak up. "We understand that you're feeling very...enraged right now and-"

"I'm feeling numb, that's all I have been feeling for the past 3 days or so." The Cactus replied before her optimistic friend finished her sentence, she refused to make eye contact as she continued to stare down at her bed.

The duo exchanged glances of worry before deciding to sit down on Sarah's bed, attempting to comfort her.

"Hey...I know you're really feeling down about what happened a few days ago." The Toxic Pea spoke up as he wrapped his equivalent of a hand around the Cactus' waist. "But it was just an accident...Chompers get a bit out of control, y'know?"

The Mystic Flower nodded. "He's right, Sarah...we gotta stay positive, so put that frown upside down!"

Sarah formed a small smile, slightly amused by her friend, who wanted everyone to be happy no matter what happened, and well, it always worked.

The Mystic Flower chuckled lightheartedly, while the Toxic Peashooter remained with his comforting smile.

The Cactus sighed, how long could she take being like this? Not even the beings above knew.

She quickly stood up, Mystic and Hershel doing the same thing. The Cactus glanced around her room, it just wasn't the same without Ane's company.

Sarah decided to take a little walk, she beckoned the 2 Plants behind her as she made her way towards the door. The duo behind her swiftly followed.

But not long after walking out of her room she came to a abrupt halt, she narrowed her eyes as she took her attention towards the left door, which contained the room of her Chomper friend.

"You alright?" Mystic spoke out, noticing her strange behaviour towards the door on their left. The Cactus shook her head in response, continuing to walk soon after.

"It seems we're getting close."

That was the first sentence the 2 Plants heard in over an hour.

They have continued to walk through the wasteland for the past few hours, and it seems their hardwork had finally paid off.

A slight glimpse of L.E.A.F HQ could be seen in the distance.

The Chomper quickly gained momentum, which Peater did soon after. Walking turned into sprinting as they got closer to the HQ as it got more and more visible.

It didn't take long until the duo reached the boarder between the HQ and the rest of Zomburbia.

"What lies up ahead is the boarder between L.E.A.F HQ and the rest of Surburbia." Ane started to explain. "Many experienced Plants guard the HQ there, just try to act natural, all right?"

The Chomper earned a silent nod from the Peashooter. He could tell that he was nervous, nervous about what their reactions would be, would it be one of relief? Happiness? Anger? Both of them weren't sure.

"Don't worry." The Chomper attempted to calm down the worried Peashooter at least a little bit. "I don't think they'll recognise you immediately, you look like every other Peashooter after all."

Another nod came from the Peashooter, but this time more reluctantly. The Chomper decided it was best to be silent until they reached the boarder.

Just like what the Chomper guessed, the rest of this journey was in silence until they reached the boarder.

Nothing was special about it other than the large objects that acted as areas to take cover or reload their projectiles.

All sorts of Plants were guarding the HQ, from Shadow Flowers to Commando Peashooters to Fire Cacti, but what stood out the most was a Hot Rod Chomper who was wearing a top hat, it was Chomp.

Ane gulped, hoping that the Hot Rod Chomper wouldn't recognise him or Peater. The concern and worry that was written on Peater's face increased in each step they took.

"What are you 2 doing here?" Chomp spoke out once the duo got close enough to him. Both Ane and Peater did their best to hide their relief, now knowing that Chomp didn't recognise them, not yet at least.

"We are just here for...a private meeting." Ane let out a little lie, he didn't want to fully tell what he and Peater were up to. He'll only tell if he had too.

The Hot Rod Chomper didn't reply, instead he turned his head towards the other Plants that guarded the HQ, after a minute of talking that the duo couldn't hear clearly, Chomp turned his head to face them.

"You are allowed to enter."

They tried to hide their expressions of relief as they watched the Plants got out of their way, making them able to proceed.

The duo quickly sprinted towards the base, reaching it not long after they were able to proceed.

Once they got in. Peater had a look of amazement, never before have he seen so many Plants walking around doing their daily duties, Ane, however, had a small smirk on his face.

It soon faded as he decided that it was best to not to. He quickly made his way towards the room where the RV usually was when it was not in use.

Peater came to a abrupt halt when they were halfway through their little journey across the HQ, Ane, with a voice coated with confusion asked.

"What's the hold up?"

The Peashooter was completely silent as he listened to the sounds that came from a room nearby. He was basically stuck in the spot.

Now with a expression of understanding, the Chomper smiled. "Go on..I think she will be quite..shocked."

The Peashooter smiled as he finally started to move towards the door where he heard the certain voice, he took another glance at the Chomper, who had a wide encouraging grin on his face.

Taking a deep breath, he opened the door.

He was met with a Ice Pea, who had a look of pure shock on their face.

"P-Peater?"

A/N DUN DUN DUNNNNNNN, Welp. Looks like we have all three of the peas finally together again...or is it? Haha, expect quite an argument next chapter. :P until next time, ThePeaWithGoggles out!
