"Gold! What are you doing?" Bree tells from behind me as Gold runs around. I hold onto the handle as Gold speeds around the market, almost knocking over stalls and rodents. Bree looks absolutely petrified from where she's sitting behind me and I go to grab her hand but quickly reach for the handle when I almost fall off.
"I'm not tired, I can make it to the dog kingdom," she says to us, panting heavily. I try to get her to stop but the yellow light starts to surround us again before it covers us completely. But instead of us teleporting anywhere, the light starts to flash with blue and grey.
Then all the light is gone and Gold slumps to the floor in the middle of the market. Me and Bree quickly get off, walking in front of Gold and trying to wake her up. I snap my fingers in front of her and slap her lightly on the nose but she doesn't even twitch.
"Do you need some help?" A rodent asks from behind us. I nod and they walk forward, standing in front of Gold with a rock in their hand. I realize that she is the queen but I don't say anything, not wanting to draw anymore attention to us. 
Gold slowly wakes up as the queen moves the rock under her nose. She wearily looks around the square and finds us all standing in front of her. She stands up, albeit wobbly, and we follow the queen through the crowd to the palace.
She takes off her hood as we make it to the gates of the palace and walks through the open gates. She leads us inside the palace and into a room, making Gold lay down on a cat bed. The queen sits down next to the cat bed and looks at Gold.
"That was very dangerous Gold. You could have died," she chastises Gold. She looks down ashamed as the queen warns her not to do that again. Me and Bree take the saddle off of Gold while the queen talks to her about the dangers of what she just did. eventually she sighs and stands up again, brushing off her hoodie and straightening the flower crown on her head.
"Your stay here will have to be lengthened so you can fully recharge," the queen says to Gold. Gold nods sadly and the queen walks out of the room. The podium chimes and a hologram comes up, showing us what time we are to be in the royal hall for dinner.
"Are you okay?" I ask, crouching down next to Gold. She sighs and nods, lying her head down on the side of the car bed. The podium chimes again with a notification that Gold is to be at the nurses station for a check up tomorrow.
I swipe the hologram and pull up a video for Gold to watch. I walk back over to where Bree is sitting and stand in front of her, waiting until she finishes the level on the game she's playing. She beats the level and looks up at me, smiling softly. 
"Want to go look around before dinner?" I ask her. She nods and we wave goodbye to Gold as we walk out of the room since the queen told her to read up and not to leave the room unless it's time to eat or she has an appointment.
"I saw a little park outside, wanna go there?" I ask her. She nods and grand my hand, the two of us walking past some of the rodents who are working to get outside where I saw the park. We walk through the doors and I catch sight of the park as we're walking down one of the paths.
"C'mon!" I exclaim excitedly, pulling Bree towards the park. She laughs and runs with me, making it to the small park. We walk over to the swings and I sit down on one of them, swinging my feet and going higher on the swing.
Bree swings beside me and we talk about our family back home and wonder what they're doing right now. The bracelets make it so fake memories are planted into their brains so they think that we are there with them when we really aren't.
"I really miss my mom," I say to Bree. She looks over at me and reaches out, trying to pat my hand but completely missing, almost falling off the swing when it starts to spin wildly. I laugh and grab her swing, steadying her so she doesn't fall off.
"Sorry," she says laughing as she gets off her swing. I jump off of mine and walk beside her through the small park, occasionally stopping to look at some of the weird playground equipment. Besides the swings, everything else here is perfectly designed for a rodent child to climb and play on.
"Oh shoot, it's almost time for dinner in the hall," I exclaim after I check my watch and see that there's only ten minutes until dinner starts. Bree looks over at me panicked before we bolt out of the playground and back into the castle.
We stop to ask one of the hamsters working inside where the royal hall is and they lead us to it. Gold and the queen are already sitting down when we get there, along with a lot more rodents. We take our seats next to Gold and wait for the queen to say something as the charter in the room dies down.
"Time to eat!" She exclaims, chefs walking into the room with platters of food in their arms. They set the food down in the middle of the table before sitting down in the empty chairs themselves. Many of the rodents at the table watch me, Gold, and Bree while we eat out food and talk.
Gold almost falls asleep at the table a few times, getting worried looks from the queen each time I have to nudge her to wake her up. She manages to eat all her food and the queen excuses her from the table, Gold quickly standing up and going back to our room.
Me and Bree finish our food and stay at the table to chat with some of the rodents for a while, not yet wanting to go back to our rooms. Finally it gets late, and after dessert, we excuse ourselves from the table and say goodnight to the rodents.
"Make sure that Gold gets to her appointment on time!" Queen Gerbil tells after us. I promise her that we will before catching up to Bree, who's waiting for me on the stairs. I take her hand and we walk up the stairs and back to our room.
"Hey Gold wh-" I say as I open the door but Bree slaps a hand over my mouth. She takes her hand off my mouth and slowly points at Gold, who is sound asleep on her cat bed. I shake my head and smile before walking over to our bed, sitting down and taking my phone out of my pocket, snapping a picture and showing it to Bree.
