Blaza's POV

The four were walking in a depressed and dark forest, nobody saying a word. The only thing that they could hear was their footsteps and the sound of forest creatures. They didn't know what happened to it, but at least the animals were still alive.
The rainbow haired woman moved to the left and gave them another motion to follow her left into more of the trees, leading them to what looked like a village filled with stores and booths and lights, but still looked gray and depressed, as thorn grew from corners of houses and people looked worried and paranoid like someone was about to kill them. "You three stay here. Only run to where I am when I scream at the top of my lungs." They nodded as the woman walked away where they couldn't see her.
This gave them to sit down to understand and recap what was just happening. First, they woke up after sleeping for 2 years, Nadwe and TBH were nowhere in sight, nor Joocie, and now they're being taken in by some random rainbow haired woman who most likely hates them, all of this made Blaza's head hurt. "Oh, Meme! I forgot to ask," Socks said, whipping his head to see his face. "What was your experience when you were asleep?" Meme took a moment to reply, glancing down at the dying grass below him as he stammered, which made Blaza feel just slightly suspicious. "Oh, well uhm.. it felt different. Like all of my nightmares and guilt and grief all in one place to torture me, like seeing all of your fears at once coming to hunt you down until you drop to the floor, dead. Im glad you were able to get me out of that hell, Blaza." Meme admitted, surprising Socks and Blaza. Blaza knew Meme would probably have a different experience, but he didn't know it would be that bad.
Before Blaza could think about it, the woman appeared again from where she left, holding a small bag. "Hey, glad you three didn't die," She joked, walking towards them as she ruffled Socks' hair. She felt like a sassy aunt now, but why? She noticed Blaza looking down at the small bag, "Just some gunpowder, we need to use this for something once we get back to camp." She explained, walking away for the three of them to follow her back into the woods, but in a different route.

The night has risen as the moon vaguely shone under the gray clouds as they walked towards a safe spot in the forest to resign for the night. The woman had set up a fireplace, and a small blue tent, and left to get food, which left Socks, Blaza, and Meme alone in the fireplace. This gave them the time to talk about what was happening, and if they should even trust the woman in the first place. They even talked about where the rest of their friends were, but they ended it with 'We'll find them'.
Blaza noticed that Meme had stayed silent the entire time unless they were talking to him directly, so he asked, "Hey, Meme. You've been quiet this entire time unless we're talking to you directly. Are you alright?" Meme looked at Blaza as Socks glanced. Meme took a breath and then quietly explained, "Well, I just feel guilty for.. everything that I have done," "What do you mean by that?" Socks asked, his head fully looking at the conversation, specifically at Meme. " 'What do you mean'? I was the reason you went to jail, Socks, and I made this entire fucking war. If it weren't for me, this wouldn't have ever happened." He explained, his entire hand pointing to the dark and grey forest.
"Even if you didn't start the war, Laff would still do this," Socks snapped, looking straight into his eyes. "although I wish you didn't jump to conclusions and blame me, not all of this is your fault. We can figure all of this out, as long as you don't beat yourself up about things you didn't do." Meme looked at Socks after he finished speaking, taking a breath as he looked at the fire.
Blaza just stayed quiet to not break the mood, but in the corner in his eye he saw the rainbow haired woman holding a basket of different fruits. "Hey, fellas-" She said before looking at their faces "Did I.. break the mood? The fuck happened?" The trio looked at the woman with an expression that said 'oh shit'. The woman rolled her eyes as she dropped the basket full of fruits in front of them as she pointed to the tent and said, "You know, when y'all are tired, you can sleep in the tent while I watch for anyone." The trio nodded in understanding as Meme walked and entered into the tent, grabbing a handful of berries before he left. He was probably tired of all the trauma-dumping and everything that was happening today, which Blaza understood.
After a few minutes, Socks also got up and entered the tent, instead he didn't grab any fruit from the basket. Blaza sighed and joined into the tent, laying down on the uncomfortable tent, but at least it was sleep-able. He shuffled into a position to where he could look up in the tent. He didn't know all of this would happen, so he felt kind of afraid of what might happen. He then shuffled back to the side and slowly fell into a deep sleep.

Ally's POV

Ally saw as the tall one crawled into the tent, looking up into the starry sky that was covered by the clouds. She looked down at her walkie-talkie and grabbed it, clicking one of the many side buttons before speaking into the walkie-talkie, "Hello, is this 'Swimmer'?" Ally asked, glancing at the tent, then at the fire.
"Uhm.. yeah. Who is it?" TBH asked, his voice distorted so if they were held hostage, they wouldn't hear and realize their identity. "This is 'Pastel' speaking." She said, her eyes still locked into the fire as she talked to TBH.
"Oh, great. How is the adventure going? Did you get the gunpowder?" He said with excitement. TBH always had a reputation for being overly protective over his friends after he lost three of his best friends, and Ally said, "It's been doing great. Yeah, I've got the gunpowder, and I found some recruits. Not much but the more the merrier, am I right?" TBH chuckled before speaking, "That's great! I'm glad you were able to find recruits. When are you gonna get beck to camp?" Ally looked at the forest that looked like it lasted forever. "Hmmm.. I think.. about 2 days, why?" "Just making sure."
Ally chuckled, taking one more glance at the tent, then at the forest, feeling like someone was watching her from there. "Well, I'll update you tomorrow night, alright?" She said, hearing the static roar of the walkie-talkie. "Alright, bye 'Pastel'." He said to say goodbye.
"Night." Ally said, clicking a button on the walkie-talkie as she looked into the everlasting forest, trying to ignore the feeling of being watched.
