“The clock keeps tickings as if what happened didn’t happen…yet they act as if they don’t remember…

The flower field still held the blood from it’s caretaker and yet that same caretaker still arrived. Azure watered each and every nightshade humming the spawn’s prayer under their breath. Though he sill felt…..uneasy though he didn’t know why.

He heard the small familiar footsteps of someone very dear to him,though he only heard them once they were 2 steps away from them. Turning around he came face to face with Two Time who wore their regular outfit though a few nightshades around the base of their boots.

They blinked noticing Azure’s gaze on them before swiftly but silently moving by their side. Azure chuckled before wrapping an arm around their waist and pulling them in closer.

“Flower! I didn’t know you were coming for a small walk? Why didn’t you tell me?”

He asked a hint of amusement in their voice as the held the other by their waist softly no hint of the malice he had from the sacrifice. They remained quiet for a mere second,one that Azure was too slow to catch.Before chuckling and nuzzling further into the other’s warmth.

“Wasn’t expecting too…but I thought why not? So here I am”

They both remained quiet taking in the warmth and silence one thinking it’s normal and the other thanking Spawn for another chance. Though it left Two Time conflicted on one hand they were glad to have another chance with Azure. But on the other….what about the other survivors?

Though just as quickly they all had to go to the Spawn’s temple for community prayer. As they walked there Two Time found themselves subconsciously looking for the other survivors just in case a killer appeared. Though in doing this they saw a white furball with 2 long tails and a lot of spawn point spots on it’s fur.

It smiled rather creepily at them when it noticed them and yet no one else reacted to it.

“You ok?”

Azure asked noticing Two Time’s sudden uneasiness and then staring at something he couldn’t fully make out. Though he just decided to grab Two Time’s hand and pull them to their chairs in the temple.

As they sat down and listened to the verses being told by their mentor Amarah,Two Time just was lost in their head thinking back trying to remember what happened the night before.

“Sorry I’ve just …..been out of it….dear Spawn…..”

Two Time mumbled to Azure after the service at the temple. They thankfully didn’t have to explain what they saw or thought. But they knew Azure would eventually ask what happened.

“Doesn’t sound like you though…?”

Azure would throw back at Two Time who only hummed softly while shrugging. Eventually the duo began walking down the temple stairs to find a place to hangout and eat preferably.

Eventually they reached a small bar and grill called “Spawn’s kitchen” on the far side of town. They both entered Azure getting attention once more due to well being the more pleasing to look at of the duo.

Though Two Time was silent looking down at the cup of hot chocolate they had ordered. As Azure chatted to whoever asked about flowers and spawn,Two Time was deep in thought.

They knew how this would end….how Azure would be laying on a nightshade field. Though maybe if they played their cards differently fate would change?

But right know they felt like going on a small walk…hopefully Azure didn’t mind.

They got up and walked out of the door holding up the hood of the cloak they decided to use know. The dead forest leaves crunching underneath the heel of their boots,as they walked through the unkept trail in the woods. Though soon small footsteps akin to a paw walking on leaves were heard as a small white cat with spawn symbols appeared once more.

“Hello Two Time,well if that’s what you’d prefer to be referred to as.”

The cat would suddenly as it sat by Two Time’s side who quickly looked around for the voice. Of course not looking at the cat as they didn’t expect a cat to speak.

“Down here,”

It said pawing at their right arm for them to look down at the cat. Two Time looked down before asking in a confused tone.

“You can speak?”

The cat nodded before licking it’s fur.

“I can do many things…..though I’m not here for I”

They hummed before leaning on their hands and waiting to hear the cats next words.

“Guest!!!”

Noob yelled out as they hugged their..best friend who they hadn’t seen for a long time. Guest 666 hummed softly as he hugged the friend they last saw a few weeks ago.

Eventually thought they went to eat at work at a pizza place,though surprisingly both Noob and one of the workers Elliot got along well. Guest 666 felt…..out of the loop as to where they would be more hyper energetic with 666 Noob would be more calm and shy with Elliot.

He also noticed that the pizza guy seemed to…..distrust him. He didn’t know why or what he could have done to get such distrust from someone. As far as he was aware……this is his first impression of them….right?

Though he couldn’t stay long he had college classes to attend so he said his farewell.

“Bye! Stay safe and sane!”

Noob waved as he left and leaving both Elliot and Noob alone. Elliot sighed still feeling weary of the killer turned normal,yet Noob was right.

“We can’t judge them if they don’t even remember!”

He mumbled under his breath but didn’t make anymore issues so thus the next part of the whole thing began. If they are right….if a past survivor or was gonna be a survivor sees another one their memories will rock until they remember.

Though some of them still somewhat remembered making it easier.

Though first they had to find 007n7 and more importantly c00lkid,if they were right while most killers were reformed back to their past selves…..the original 4 may not have had such luck.

Guest 666 was eating a sandwich from the store keeping an eye on the front door. Eventually the bells on the door rang as a happy Noob arrived waving at 666 who waved back.

They sat down in the chair next to him having brought a pizza from that pizza joint. Noob rambled on about random things hand on their cheek while leaning on the table. Guest 666 took a bite of his sandwich listening to their rambles.

“And then Elliot-“

“Hey I was wondering if your going to that party later?”

They asked Noob silently who went quiet before they answered.

“You know I have to meet up with Elliot-“

“You’ve said the same things for the past 6 weeks.”

“I know but-“

“I’m worried we haven’t spent time together and it feels as if your replacing me”

Noob went silent hearing the words that had left their best friend’s mouth. With a few tears already pooling on their eyelids they grabbed his chin and pulled them in closer before yelling at them to get their point across.

“I would NEVER replace you! Don’t ever think such nonsense Guesty!”

Guest 666 went quiet but nodded silently as to confirm that he understood. Noob would silently release their hold on his chin before they both sat in awkward silence after the confrontation. Noob’s eyes wandered spotting a black mostly like cat with a top hat and two tails staring through the window of the store with its red dots of eyes.

They shivered as they caught sight of the creature because in no world should a cat look like that. Thankfully 666 remained oblivious to it as Noob finally looked away from it down to their sad half eaten sandwich.

“I thought you didn’t like parties?”

Guest 666 would hum as he took a bite of his food before putting his own sandwich down as he answered their question.

“I don’t….but I also don’t like being alone”

“I’m sorry but I’ve truly been really busy these weeks….I didn’t mean to ignore you”

“….Promise you’ll try to at least make time for us?”

“I’ll try…”

Elliot sighed as he layed out all the pictures he could gather of the survivors and their current situations. The first picture on the right was of Chance and his toxic situationship with that one hacker he’s heard stories of.

The next picture was of the 3 admins and their killer admin friend. Taph also had a picture holding a bomb. Guest 1337 had just got back from war holding his wife and daughter. 007n7 in the picture was holding his son.

Though he wasn’t or rather hadn’t managed to find any picture of Two Time.

He shuffled a few pictures that the duo were able to take of those 2 pesky weird cats. Noob was away speaking to that guest who in Elliot’s opinion he thinks is too envious but it’s their life.

Finally he reached the pictures of all the killers most of them became “docile” again,though they still kept and eye on them. Though some like for example c00lkid and John Doe still retained some of their memories and abilities from that realm.

He pulled out a picture of a small red kid being excluded from a duo. The duo being a pink and blue kid excluding him,the red kid of course being sad at this.

He hummed before pulling out his phone and sending a quick message to Noob.

“Be back in gonna visit an old companion”
