Chapter Text
"Pin you have to stop acting like this! look. It's been days. Coiny is gone and you have to get your head in this to survive!" Needle yelled out to Pin. The red pushpin just kept staring at the ground next to her, ignoring the slightly rusted sewing needle scolding her.
Next to Needle was Donut, who had an anxious look on his face. The three of them were in the middle of a forest far from where the TPOT challenge area was.
Quite far really.
Needle had a backpack filled with the basic things needed to survive this hellish condition going around, Pin had a baseball bat to protect herself and her friends, while Donut, he was there to keep his sanity in check, He can't really do much ever since his arms were taken away by Yellow Face, that bastard. They took their time right now to take a break from running and settled down here.
Anyways, Donut was feeling horrible for his fellow contestants, he himself wasn't doing too well either. A small section of him also had some bandages wrapped around, primarily a small section around the left side of his mouth. He sighed "Needle..Just stop telling her that. She's already lost the top of her point..I don't think you need to keep reminding her about how he's "gone"." Donut said softly, hopfully taking away the sour mood the three of them have been having for a while now.
He noticed how Pin was gripping her baseball bat tighter. Needle looked at him and sighed and then back at Pin, "I'm sorry- It's just- seeing you like this. Seeing all of us like this. Arg its all just so-" "Pointless?..." Pin said, finishing Needles sentence. She smiled slightly, Needle chuckled a bit. "Phew-" Donut let out a sigh of relief, despite knowing all that happend to the three of them, the remaining contestants and the sickly green ones, there's still some laughs to be shared.
"I'm sorry too...I just miss Coiny a lot, but me sulking so much won't change him back to normal." Pin exclaimed as she leaned back on a tree and sliding down to the ground, setting her baseball bat on the floor. Needle and Donut looked at each other and nodded "Lets just set up a small camp here for the night, maybe that'll fix up our depressing mood" Needle said as she took out a tent from the brown backpack she had on. Both Donut and Pin were puzzled on how she had a tent in that bag. How did it even fit in there? "Oh my bakery, you know what- I'm not even going to question it." Needle began to set up the tent while her two friends talked. The wind blew around them, the sky having a gloomy look to it. It looked as if it was about to rain, but it's been looking like that for a while now. The temperature was chilly out today, but not cold enough for you to have the constant need to be warm. Donut had fallen asleep by a tree next to Pin. Needle was sitting down in the tent, setting up a few things inside it for them all to rest up inside.
Pin was lost in her head, thinking again about Coiny. "I'm sorry!!! I wanted us to go further into the game!, " She said to Coiny out loud, her voice filled with sadnes, "HOW CAN I DO THIS WITHOUT YOU!" Coiny gave her a smile and hugged her before opening the door to let Anchor inside, ultimately being bitten on left side of his head by Barf Bag as she broke open the door. "COINY!-" Tears began to form in Pins eyes. She's the reason her W.O.A.H Bunch co-captin, her best friend, her partner in crime...was a mindless zombie. "Pin?" "Pin? Are you ok?" a high pitched voice said, snapping her out of her thoughts. Needle was out of the tent. "Oh yeah- I'm good." She responded. Pin cleared her throat "It's getting dark...I have the sleeping bags ready in the tents for the three of us" She crossed her arms and had a friendly expression on.
Pin tried to smile back, but couldn't. She woke up Donut, who was feeling a bit grogy from the nap. Whatever he was dreaming about, it clearly didn't let him nap well. Donut, once again didn't question how any of this stuff managed to fit in that average sized bag. The three of them got into their respective sleeping bag and fell sleep. "Until the next morning..." Pin said to herself. Her eyes closed, finally letting her rest up.
"Good night pin"
