Coiny sat on his bed, staring down at a small photo in his hands. The room was dark, but a small beam of sunlight poured into the room, reflecting off of the small photograph. In it, was Coiny and Pin; Coiny raising his fist in the air, as Pin stood beside him, a arm wrapped around him as she laughed. The photo was taken when the two had gotten to Yoyleland; back when there was a screaming Firey, back when there was a scientific duo with their small friend, back to when there was love...
Coiny felt his eyes water. The more he stared at the photo, the more the questions began to eat at his mind.

What happened to everyone?

What happened to him?

Why was this happening..?

Why...

Coiny looked closer.

Why did Pin look....more alive?

He wiped his eyes, as he threw himself back onto his bed, holding the photo close to his chest. Was it a mistake?

Was there something here that made everyone...change?

'Coiny..'

The sudden whisper made Coiny sit up; his eyes quickly wandering around the room. He glanced over towards the window, and noticed that no one was outside; it was as deserted as they found it.

Coiny sighed once more, before he stood up, placing the photo down onto his bed before he made his way towards the window. He looked around, and scratched his head.

"Maybe it was just the window..?" He whispered to himself. He shrugged, before he reached over towards the small lock of the window. But something stopped him.

There, in the distance...

"Firey...?" He mumbled, as he felt everything around him beginning to freeze. Over on the Yoyle Needy, was a figure, standing over the edge and staring down at the ground. It was letting off a soft glow, and this made Coiny tell.

"FIREY?!" He rubbed his eyes, disbelief suddenly crashing over him like a tidal wave. But as he looked up...

Nothing.

The door to the building beside him suddenly swung open, as an angered figure stomped out, her head whirling around everywhere. She scanned the area around her, before she looked up, noticing Coiny staring down at her.

"WAS THAT YOU?!" She yelled out.

"WHAT?"

"DID YOU SCREAM?!" She tapped her foot impatiently. Coiny rubbed his arm, as he nodded slowly.

"Well, CUT IT OUT!" She yelled. And with that, she stomped back inside, slamming the door behind her. Coiny rolled his eyes, as he looked towards the tower one last time...

Nothing.

He rolled his eyes, as he shut the window. He turned around, and reached for the small photograph that laid on the top of his sheets, until something caught his eye.

The photograph was still gleaming from the sunlight, Coiny's silly pose still visible;

But Pin's face was scratched out; her smile now dim, and her eyes...broken.

-

"Finally, your back." Pencil sighed out, as Ice Cube made her way into the clubhouse. This threw the smaller figure off guard, as she tilted her head.

"I thought you didn't like me?"

"I didn't want to find you dead." Pencil rolled her eyes. Ice Cube nodded, as she made her way to the sofa.

"Hey, like, what were you doing by the TLC, like, anyway?" Match asked, lifting her head up from Pencil's shoulder. A light blue blush came across Ice Cube's face, as she shrugged.

"Nothing..." her frail voice whispered. A smirk came across Match's face, as she sat up.

"Like, really? Are you, like, sure?"

"Yes, I am." Ice Cube stared away from the two, trying to avoid any sort of conversation with the two. But that didn't happen.

"Well...your blushing a lot, even melting....are you sure you weren't up to anything, weird?" Pencil chimed in, smiling. Ice Cube shook her head, her blush darkening.

"No! Why would you want to know anyways?"

"Icey, your back!" Book walked into the room, wrapping her arms around Ice Cube gently. "So, How was it? How is she doing? Is she treating you nicely?"

"BOOK!" Ice Cube cried out, embarrassment shining through her tone. Pencil and Match gasped, as they sat up, all of their attention on her.

"ICE CUBE! YOU'VE, LIKE, GOT TO TELL US EVERYTHING! WHO'S THIS LUCKY OBJECT?" Match's eyes sparkled with excitement. Ice Cube looked down shyly, as Book cleared her throat.

"Well, her name is..Ringy, right?"

"BRACELETY!" Ice cube yelled out.

"Aaaaw, that is, like, so ADORABLE!" Match squealed out. "How did you two meet?"

"Well, it was when we had to get the...bugs..." she laughed nervously. "And I was looking around the TLC...and I slipped, and then someone inside asked me if I was...Puffball? And then I told them no, and then ANOTHER voice asked me what I was doing, and if I was okay....and, that's it." Ice Cube smiled, still feeling a bit embarrassed from the two.

"So, looks like we'll have to make blue dresses for the bridesmaids, right?" Pencil teased. Ice Cube's face suddenly glowed with blush, as she hid her face into a small cushion, screaming. Pencil laughed.

"I was kidding, I was kidding!"

"IT WASN'T FUNNY!"

"Aw, c'mon Ice Cube! This is, like, so cute! We have to meet her!" Match acknowledged. Pencil nodded.

"That's right! And personally, I think we could try and include her into our alliance! Since she's your GIRLFRIEND.."

Ice Cube sighed.

"First of all, I thought I was an alternate. Second of all, she's..not my girlfriend."

"SHES NOT?!" The three voices yelled together. Ice Cube flinched.

"What?"

"Well...it's just.." Match trailed on, before Pencil interrupted.

"NOT ACCEPTABLE! You two are GOING to get together! I may not know anything about her, but she HAS TO BE your soulmate!"

"Pencil.."

"NO! We are going to help you, Ice Cube."

"But how?" Book spoke out. "We can't just talk about this, there's other objects in the TLC too, y'know!"

The four sat in silence, before a small lightbulb flicked on inside of Pencil's head. She smiled.

"Well, we're going to bust her out of there."

"And...How can we, like, do that?"

-

"This...is your garden?"

"Well..yes! I've been working on it ever since we moved here...and it's where I come to calm down sometimes...and I made it for you guys too!"

Fries walked around, letting his hands brush against a few of the plants. He wiped his eyes with his other hand; as he stared around in disbelief.

"I've...never seen a garden with so much..life..." he mumbled underneath his breath. Pin gushed.

"It...took a lot of work, but I did it! My favorite ones are the lavenders..." she sat down, crossing her legs. Fries took a seat beside her, the smell of the plants filling him with a sense of...peace.
Pin smiled, as Fries put an arm around her, letting her lean on him sleepily.

"I'm...sorry about everything that has happened Fries..." she mumbled. "I know that it isn't easy.."

"Ah.." Fries looked up, tears beginning to fill his eyes up to the brim. "Well..its..it's fine, Alright? I still have you..."

Pin looked up, laughing a bit. "You're such a dad."

"...I guess I was."

"AM." Pin patted him on the back. Fries looked down glumly, shaking his head.

"But..Gelatin..."

"I know, but there's nothing we can do about it now Fries. He's...he's gone."

"I know." A sob began to escape Fries's mouth, as he clenched his teeth. "I know..."

Pin frowned, as she hugged him, letting her eyes shut. She heard him sniffling, until...

Her eyes opened.

Well? What are you gonna do?

"I...Just give me time, ok? I want to help him out.."

Help him out? Pin, please, you've done nothing to help anyone around here.

"But he's my friend! I can't just-"

I don't care. You have to do something; you have to keep moving down the line.

"Please, just give me a day, or two- I- I already know who I'm gonna get next!"

And who would that be?

Pin crossed her arms. "Obviously Golfball. I can't be found out about once the little scientist is thrown off of the map of life."

Ah, I see. Well...you better get to it fast. I already have a gift prepared for you, for all of your work.

Pin paused. "...What?"

Oh? You think the garden was the only thing I'd offer you? Honey, please...

This is only the beginning.

Pin's eyes suddenly snapped open, a glimmer of red quickly flashing in them. She jumped; and this made Fries hug her closer.

"Pin? Are you ok?" His voice was filled with concern. She shook her head, putting a hand over her arm.

"I'm...fine. It was just a nightmare."

"Another?" Fries raised his eyebrow. "Pin, this is starting to get serious. You've been getting those a lot for the past few MONTHS!"

"And? It's probably because I've been eating before bed...or something."

She lied.

"Well...if you ever need any help, or you just need anyone to talk to..just remember, I'm here ok?"

"Okay, DAD." Pin smiled. Fries rolled his eyes, as he hugged her close, shutting his eyes.

She liked this. She didn't want to admit it, but...she cared about the guy. A lot.
At least she was helping him now....

Do it.

She winced.

DO IT.

'No...' she thought. 'I...I'm already going after-'

DO IT.

I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU COULD, HUH?

"Rule. 11." She muttered angrily, clenching her fists. Fries looked at her.

"What?"

"Don't. Hurt. Them." She muttered once more, staring intensely at the ground. Fries's eyes narrowed together; what was she talking about?

"Pin?"

"RULE 11." She screamed out, slamming her hand against a small boulder. She winced at the sudden pain, and recoiled back, grabbing her hand in pain.

"Pin, what had gotten into you?! Look, your bleeding!" He grabbed her hand, as she winced, feeling the blood gush out of her open wound. Fries winced, as he glanced over towards her direction. "We have to bandage this up."

"No...No, I'm okay..." she mumbled. Fries scoffed.

"You were mumbling and yelling a few seconds ago, and now you're telling me you're ok?! How did that..rock even get there?!" He yelled out. Pin froze.

"Hold on; I'm gonna move it. I don't know why this is-"

"WAIT!" Pin cried out. Fries paused, crossing his arms.

"Yes?"

"C-...Can you get some bandages for me..?" She smiled.

"...Whats going on with you, Pin."

"W-What?"

"You're acting...different.." he sighed. "Listen, just let me move this rock, it isn't good for the garden."

"FRIES, LEAVE IT THERE!"

Fries jumped back at the sudden scream. He stared at her in disbelief, as she panted softly.

"Please...just..." she tried to reach for the words she wanted to say, but, she couldn't find them.

"..What are you hiding?" Fries stepped towards her, causing her to shrink back in fear. He stared down at her, as he took a deep breath, and placed a hand on her shoulder gently. "Pin?"

"N-Nothing! Please, just..." She paused. "..Follow me."

She turned around, and spotted her trowel a few footsteps away, jabbed into a pile of dirt. She slowly walked by, snatching the trowel from the pile before disappearing into the darkness. Fries saw this, and shook his head, as he began to follow her.

As he looked around, his eyes began to catch onto the bright and vibrant colors from Pin's garden. Snapdragons stood proudly in the air, it's bright, orange color letting off a soft glow. Pink tulips swirled happily, as the blue delphiniums gave off an aura of...
Calmness.

He continued to walk, noticing that the sunlight that poured onto the ground was suddenly disappearing. He rubbed his arm.

"Uh...Pin...?" He called out, walking into a small cave. It was dark; a heavy silence rang in Fries's ears as he squinted, trying to find Pin standing around. He continued to walk forward, until he felt something cold brush up against his leg. He shivered.

"Pin?" He looked down.

It was a hand.

His heart froze, as he stumbled back, covering his mouth in absolute horror. As his eyes adjusted to the darkness of the cave, he began to see more.

Hands.

Hands, and hands, and hands.

Lifeless fingers dangled through the air, as he noticed small tags wrapped around their wrists. He could feel vomit rise in his throat, as he began to scatter backwards. He looked around more, and suddenly noticed the body of Flower standing tall...and cold.

"Hello Fries."

The voice made his blood run cold.

"Here it is...My Garden."

Fries turned around, and tears began to spill down his cheeks as he noticed Pin standing over him, a wild grin plastered on her face, with a trowel in her hand.

"P-..." he was speechless.

Pin could feel her eyes water, as she poised in the middle of the garden, spreading her arms wide.

"Well? What do you think?"

"You...you're.."

"I'm...the murderer. I, was the one who killed Firey. I, was the one who killed Rocky. I, WAS THE ONE WHO KILLED WOODY, AND FLOWER, AND NEEDLE AND TEARDROP AND PUFFBALL..." she panted.

"And...Gelatin. I killed..Gelatin."

"PIN.." Fries's voice broke. Hot tears poured down his cheeks, as he could no longer move, nor feel, nor...

"I'm...sorry Fries. I'm sorry about all of this." Pin mumbled. Fries's eyes darkened, as he stood up, his hand brushing over...Gelatin's.

"You're a MONSTER." Fries uttered. Pin winced, but she nodded, staring at him.

"No...I'm only doing my job."

"WHO'S JOB?! WHO'S?!" Fries screamed out, grabbing Pin by the throat. He slammed her against the walls of the cave, and clenched his hand tightly. She shut her eyes, as he began to repeatedly hit her against the wall. "SPEAK UP, DAMN IT! WHY DID YOU FUCKING DO IT?!"

"I-" Pin gasped. "I had to-"

"WHY?!" Fries sobbed out.

Suddenly, the trowel pierced through his chest. He stiffened, as he began to cough up splatters of blood. Blood trickled down his chest, as Pin twisted the trowel in his chest. A painful, squishing sound echoed through the cave, as he began to feel his heart slow down.

"I...love you Fries.."

"P-Pin, I-..." he grabbed her wrist, as he slowly fell down onto the dirt. Pin continued to stab the trowel through his chest, as he continued to cough up blood.

"He..loved you too.."

"FRIES, NO!"

-

Pin walked out of the cave, blood splattered all over her body. She did a few neck rolls, before she took a deep breath.

Well done, Pin. And the fry?

She raised the fry up, and took a violent bite from the soggy treat.

Ah, all's Well that-

"P-..Pin?"

No.
