Ennard peeked out the window.
"See?" they said. "They're hiding out there. And there's only like three or four people."
Well... Baby paused. ... All right.
WHAT? said Funtime Foxy in shock.
Baby, are you feeling all right? Ballora asked.
I haven't been ever since this skin started to decompose, Baby replied, but we have to. We're taking a major risk, but let's do it anyways. We can always make a run for it if we get caught.
A... all right, said Ballora nervously. Let's go.
Ennard walked outside and down the steps. When they got up this morning, they could see how much their skin had decomposed now. Their skin had taken on a purpleish hue, most of their teeth were gone, both of their endoskeleton eyes were showing, and they were bald.
As they walked down the sidewalk, they looked around to make sure that no one else was coming over to them, but it didn't look like it. If anything, people were avoiding them. Only a few people peeked out from behind a few houses, but other than them, the streets were deserted.
Be as casual as possible, said Baby. Funtime Foxy, move your arms! What are you doing?
I can't, lass! said Funtime Foxy. They be feelin' rusty or sumthin'! I be tryin', but I be gettin' nowhar fast!
"Ah, great, that's not good," said Ennard. "This gunky skin isn't only affecting my voice box, it's starting to affect your arms, too."
It is only a matter of time before it happens to our legs! Ballora cried.
Okay, just calm down, calm down! said Baby. If it does, then we'll have to stay inside the house from now on. We wouldn't be able to go anywhere, and no one would suspect.
"That works," said Ennard. "All right, once our legs can't move anymore, then we'll stay inside."
I'm with her, said the voice of the sister.
Ennard stopped in their tracks. "Who said that?"
Oh, thank goodness! Ballora exclaimed. I thought I was the only one who heard that!
That's Michael's sister, said Baby.
I thought she were dead? Funtime Foxy asked.
Yes, said Baby, but her soul rests alongside my conscience.
"She's a part of us?" Ennard said in surprise.
Yes, said Baby.
I didn't want to stay back there, said the sister. I would've been so sad... being all alone... Her voice cracked, as though she were about to cry.
Oh, no, don't cry, said Baby soothingly. It's okay. Everything's all right.
Says the robot who killed me, said the sister, tears in her voice.
Please, don't start with that again, said Baby in exasperation.
