Hey guys! You thought this was a one-shot, but I bullcrap you not, 1's epiphany is a two-shot! *makes awesome face* Enjoy and please review!

*I don't own 9 and never will. It belongs to the awesome Shane Acker.

1 was about to do the thing he always dreaded the thought of doing. The most difficult thing for him to do. He was going to apologize. If he could find those he needed to apologize to, that is. He never suspected that 3 and 4 were nervous a lot because of him. All it took was 6's drawing to open his eyes. No wonder 7 was so rebellious. He kept walking through the empty wasteland as he approached a huge library. This was where they all should be. Fortunately for 1, everyone was there together. Good, he thought, all at once. 5 saw 1 at the door.

"Um…" he had no idea what to say.

Everyone stared at the old stitch punk behind the door.

"What do you want, 1?" 7 asked impatiently.

"I wanted to say something." he explained.

"Uh-huh." 7 answered, her arms folded.

"I know I haven't exactly been as good a leader as I thought I was." 1 said.

"No freaking duh!" 9 remarked.

"And…." If 1 could sweat, he would be, a lot.

"And?" 7 had a look of satisfaction on her face. She didn't think he would do it, but it seemed to her that he was going to try.

"I'm sorry." he said under a false cough.

"Excuse me?" 7 said with a smirk.

"He said he was sorry, 7." 2 said nicely.

"Don't make him squirm, 7." 5 joked.

"It's okay,1." 7 said. "That was just so worth it!"

1 laughed a little. Maybe he wasn't the bitter prune everyone came to think of him as.

The end! NOW it's the end. Thanks for reading, guys!
