MEET THE CAST! :
11 13: 20/21:

Chapter 5 -
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
13: NO! 11! *runs after it without hesitation grabbing her spear along the way*
21: 13, wait!
*the Cat Beast turned at the noise, 13 throws his spear/sword and hits it in the red eye blinding the eye, dropping 11*
*20 runs up to her, and helps her back to the others*
21: We have to get into some shelter - somewhere IT can’t get us.
* start to walk off, 20 stops*
20: Wait, where’s 13?!
*all turn around to see the Beast lunging for him. 13 dodges, but is clawed on the chest. He takes 11’s spear and jams it in the Beast’s other eye. *
11: *knocked out cold, side ripped open*
13: * trying to get over to her* 11!
*21 runs over to her leaving 11 in 20’s arms*
21: Take it easy - you’re hurt bad. *looks at his torn leg and chest, then at the Beast struggling to get away, but tripping over objects. She helps 13 up and over to the others*
20: It looks like there’s a cave over there small enough that the Beast can’t fit in.
*they lay 11 down and 13 tries to lay next to her*
21: You need space, it’ll take a while to fix you both.. . .
*21 grabs sewing needle from 13’s bag and moves to him. 13 stops her and points to 11*
13: She’s hurt worse.
11: *moans a bit and sits up* w-what happened? *flinches a bit and looks at 13* Are you ok?
*still laying down, 13 flinches and smiles at her, chuckling softly, as if nothing happened*
13: We were attacked by a Cat Beast. I’m fine, I’m used to this kinda thing. What about you? 21’s working to stitch you back together.
20: We were lucky to get away. If 13 hadn’t blinded it, you’d BOTH be dead .
*20 looks at 13 to see him glaring at him as if to say ‘SHUT UP!’*
11: *sits up rather uncomfortably* Cant say I’m not used to this kind of treatment... *laughs and unconsciously touches leg patch again looking around* That was the only way I knew how to get out of here... I’m not sure where to go now. That things still out there? *cringes again and reaches for side*
*21 gently but firmly pushes her back down*
21: You need to hold still. I’m not done fixing you yet.
13: *hasn’t even tried to get up* No, I don’t think so. It’s been blinded, and I doubt it would find us anyway. 20 found this cave.
20: I think I may have found a way out of here too. I’ve been looking at the surroundings, and, if we stay close to each other, there should be a way out of this valley. But first, I think you should tell us more about yourself, 11. What HAPPENED to you out there?
11: *looks confused* Um... well I stepped out to make sure the coast was clear and that cat thing scooped me up and then it kinda goes fuzzy after that... *laughs awkwardly*
20: Not that. We know that part. How’d you get that scar you keep touching?! Are you a SPY?!
*13 rolls his eyes*
*20 finished sewing 11’s body and moved over to help 13*
21: A spy, REALLY 20?
11: *looks at 20 and smiles* thanks... *sits up a bit and leans back* I don’t get it. I’m not touching anything. *looks around for back pack*
20: You - aw, forget it . . . *walks away*
21: I haven’t seen your backpack. . .
*21 comes back with 11’s spear and bag*
21: *a bit annoyed* It was by the entrance
13: Listen.
20: . . . .. I don’t hear anything . .
*21 shrugs at 11*
13: Exactly. The bell’s gone!
11: *head perks up* oh no I slipped it inside the bag. here hand it to me.
*20 does so and they all watch worriedly*
11: *rummages through the bag but cant seem to find the bell. Looks around them* did any of you go through my bag while I was out? *rummages through it again*
21: No. 13 saved you from the Beast, 20 caught you when you fell and brought you to me, away from that Beast.
13: It must’ve fell out. *gets up* I’ll help you look for it - no one should be alone out there. 20, 21 go see if you can find a way out of this death valley. As soon as we find the bell we’re LEAVING this place behind. For GOOD.
*20 and 21 nod and leave*
*13 walks up beside her*
13: You ready?

Chapter 6 -
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
11: *looks surprised at 13* for... good? *shakes head* never mind... why do you want to find it? It means nothing to you.
13: True, but it obviously means a great deal to YOU. *smiles at her then looks into the distance* We may be able to come back, someday, but I think we should find the 9 now. Maybe I’ll finally find out about myself from them. *sighs and looks down* Anyway, we better get movin’.
11: *looks at 13 and follows after him a little shakily* I suppose your right...
13: *holds her arm* Here, let me help you.
*it’s painfully obvious 13 hasn’t healed yet as he walks where he fought the giant metal beast and looks around. 11 sees all the claw marks in the ground, along with a shred of 13’s side from the battle beside the beast‘s formerly red eye*
13: Oop! Found it! *he smiled at her as he picked up the jingling sphere and hands it to her*
11: *takes the bell from 13* thanks *smiles and wraps 13's arm around her neck* Now I get to help you. XD lets get back before something comes after us...
13: * blushes* Thanks. . . . The others should be back soon. *13 looks at the darkening sky*
11: *looks up too* A storm is blowing in... first one in a long time... at least since the bombs... Its not even the afternoon yet. if it stays lighter out for a bit longer we could still get away unseen...
13: I’ve NEVER seen a storm like this before . . We need to find shelter. There’s NO way we’ll survive if we keep moving now . . .
11: *looks at side and laughs* seems we could withstand quite a bit as far as I can tell... What’s a little storm? XD
13: *laughs gently* True, it appears we CAN survive much. Now that you said that though, I get this awful feeling something TERRIBLE is going to happen . .
*20 and 21 walk up*
20: We found a way out. *points over a small hill of objects*
*21 looks between the two StitchPunks, raises an eyebrow and smiles*
11: *sighs a little* I need to rest a moment if that’s ok...
(21 looked between 13 and 11, I meant . . )
*13 looks at the hole in his body*
13: Yeah. I should probably get that fixed as well.
20: It’s settled then, first thing tomorrow, we’ll be off.
11: *looks around nervously* I'd hate to say this but with that storm rolling in and that creature still out and about... I don’t think it'll be safe enough here for more than a few minutes... *sets 13 down and stands, using spear for balance* I suggest we fix up 13 and get out of here ASAP...
13: *grabs her hand and keeps her from leaving* YOU need rest too. I wouldn’t worry about the Beast. I blinded it, I seriously doubt it’ll be back.
21: We should go back to the small hole we were in before, that’s the safest place to be. I’ll fix you two there, where we’re safer. We’d go back to your place, 11, but it’s way to far to go back to now.
11: *shakes out of 13's grip* I wasn’t going to go anywhere. I was just going to keep watch. And I’m fine. *points to side* see? fixed up well... If I stay sitting I'll lose energy. *scoots away from 13 a bit so he cant reach her* Help 13. I'll keep watch. When the coast is clear we'll make a break for it. Believe me, just because is blind wont stop it from hunting us down. It knows we're here now... *fidgets nervously and taps leg unconsciously* we have to keep moving... we can rest when we're further out in the wastelands. Not even the beasts would dare follow us out there...
13: * looks worriedly at 11* I’m afraid to ask. . . . Alright, WHY won’t they follow us there of all places? I’d think there are only MORE beasts out that way. . . Is THAT how you got that scar?
21: A beast attacked you?
20: I’m not surprised- those beasts’ll attack ANYTHING that has a Soul. . . .
11: Scar? *looks at leg* oh this... yeah, nasty run in with a beast a LONG time ago. No worries. But in our current state it would be much safer to just get out of here as soon as possible. Unfortunately the outskirts are no different from here, but I know for a fact that many of these creatures stay close to once residential area and any area with large buildings. Strange if you think about it. my guess it they enjoy the thrill of hide and seek amongst the rubble. No, out in the open we are safer than here... *attempts to make sense of it but fails* Anyways we should move out soon. Rest up now. *leaps up onto the side of a broken wall* I'll keep watch while you mend...
*13 moves to object, then stops knowing 11 won’t hear anymore about it.*
13: Y-yeah, ok . .. . . *looks at hole in chest* Funny how the hole is right over where my heart would be. . . .
21: * laughs gently at him* You are a gentle heart.
11: *limps up over the others, moving around a bit easier now and, with spear in hand, bends down and keeps watch* *takes a deep breath to calm self and taps leg again looking down onto it for a second before turning to check up on the others* How's it going down there?
21: . . . . . Almost . . . . .. . . Done . . . . *cuts the end of the string*
*13 looks down at the new patch on his chest, that almost looks like it’s in the shape of a heart*
20: Wow. INCREDIBLY appropriate . . .
*21 glares at her brother*
21: 20, that’s not -
13: It’s ok, 21. *looks down* He’s . . . . . right.
11: *leaps back down, wobbles a bit and catches balance again* What’s right? *looks at 13 and scratches cheek to keep from giggling* Well... looks like you’re put back together... how are you feeling?
13: *blushes partly from embarrassment, partly from seeing 11* 20, Eh. . . . Called me ’Gentile Heart’ . . . . I feel sore, other than that, I’m fine.
*13 tries to get up, and looses balance*
11: *catches and sets him down again* Best to rest a moment. *smirks at 20* Where was the escape route you two found?
20: *points towards a small pile of objects not too far from where they were* There - over the hill. We can make it over it quickly.
13: *tries to get up again* I’m fine. If it’s safer out there we should get there as soon as we can. . . *shakily gets on his feet. 21 tries to hold him back, but 13 gently pushes her away*
21: But, 13. . .
*13 turns his head away and closes his eyes. He wouldn’t hear it*
11: *giggles at 13 and pulls out some string from her bag and finds a long piece of metal. Ties the string to it, lifts it and carries it on her shoulder* I have a feeling this will come in handy once we're out of here and further out in the wastelands... *looks at 20 and 21* lead the way...
( XD 13’s being all Alpha Male! Or TRYING to - for ONCE . . . - 3 guesses why. . )
*20 and 21 walk out of the hole followed by 13, using his spear/sword for balance. He keeps looking back at 11, making sure she‘s ok*
*11 also wobbling along using he spear for balance but getting along better than 13* Need help? *smiles at 13*
*13’s pride got in the way, continuing on whilst trying to appear as though he wasn’t hurt as bad as he was. (poor 13 tries his best to impress 11, although most of the time it backfires on himself)*
13: I-I’m fine. Keep up with the others. It’s dangerous to be left alone for too long out here. . . .

Chapter 7
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
11 *walks up next to 13* Ha. Speak for yourself. I’ve spent 2 years of my life here alone. *smiles proudly* It’s not as hard as it seems . . .
13: Speak for YOURself. I find it VERY difficult to live here . . . *gets strange image of himself with other StitchPunks. It ends in a flash* Hmmm . . . .
20: *looks back at him and sees his puzzled expression* Something wrong 13?
13: Huh? Oh, no. Nothing . . ..
11: *laughs* Well I have to admit, you guys did a better job of sewing me up than I could ever do on my own. Thanks for that.
21: *smiles back over her shoulder* No problem - That’s what I’m here for.
20: *rolls his eyes* Girls and their SEWING . . . . .
13: *looks up at him* What? I wish I could sew myself back together HALF as good as they can. *to 11* You’d think I’d be better at it considering that I HAD to repair myself every time something fell on me, which, happens to be often . . .
11: *laughs* Now that I can believe. *hobbles up ahead next to 20 and 21 and looks off ahead* We’re almost out I take it? *looks around* It feels very still here . . . That’s not usually a good thing . .. . Even in total emptiness there is a presence. But here, it’s as if that presence is hidden as well . . .
21: I feel it, too. *shivers* Brother, we should just keep moving. . . .
20: PLEASE. There’s NOTHING here-
13: EXACTLY, 20. Nothing . .. . The Wind isn’t even blowing here . . . .
11: Shush. . . . * holds hand up to quiet the others* keep moving . . . . Don’t stop for anything, and keep quiet . . . . * continues forward and leads the rest of the way*
*20 and 21 are only a few steps behind her. 13 is a few feet behind them, but picking up his pace as he looks around the Deserted Wasteland, afraid*
13: *stops on a spot* *quietly* . . . . . . I - I . . . .. . FEEL something . . . . . Something. . .STRANGE, like an, an energy . . .
11: *is too far ahead to hear anything from far behind* Look. I see the opening ahead. *points ahead*
*20 and 21 smile happily and run up next to her looking where she’s pointing (13 hasn’t moved)*
20: We’re almost out!
21: I can’t believe it!
11: *smiles* Looks like we’re gonna survive this time . . . . *looks back* Where’s 13?
*13’s glowing green around his ‘heart’*
21: *looks back* . . .13?!
20: *turns to see him* Wha-what HAPPENED?!
*both run to him*
21: *angrily to 20* Like I know!
21: 13! Are you alright?!
20: 13! Speak to us!!
*13’s eyes are open, slightly, as if in a trance*
11*watches from where she stands, not sure what to do. What’s going on down there?
*21 goes to touch him, and hesitates. 20 grabs him by the shoulders, and shakes him gently*
21:*sadly* Oh, Creator, no.. . 13 . . . .
13: *shakes his head groggily* Huh . . . .Wh-what happened?
11: *jumps down worriedly* What’s going on?
13: I- I don’t know. I felt an unbelievable energy in my body, an-and I got a vision. *looks around* I -I think it’s of this place before the War. . . .Th-there were trees, and . . . PEOPLE!
11: *looks at him confused* People? As in Humans?
13: I THINK so . . . .they were this weird . . Pink . . . . ‘Fleshy’ . . . . .things. . All I know is that I NEVER saw anything like THEM before . . . . But , somehow. . . . I don’t think they’re EXTINCT. The Vision - it showed before, but a glimpse of the future, as well . . .
11: I know what a human is . . .I’ve seen them. *turns and continues walking* Come on we need to keep moving. It’s midday. It’s only going to get darker as the storm rolls over.
13: You-you’ve SEEN humans?!
*20 and 21 look at each other, amazed and they all follow 11, 13, still slower than the others, but still catches up quickly*
13: *as he gets closer to 11* Where?
11: *continues walking* years ago . . .before they were wiped out by the bombs. Let me tell you it wasn’t a pretty sight. *looks back at them* You haven’t been around for long, have you?
20/21: *look at each other* No, we haven’t. WE were created AFTER the war, to help the others try to bring the world back. . .
13: I, I don’t know. I sorta, remember the world before the machines, but . . . .I-I’m not sure if those were MY memories, or only visions.
*looks at the ‘heart’ patch* Ever since that .. . MONSTER attacked you, I’ve been getting more . . .VIVID visions . .. I can’t figure their meaning, though . . .
11: Looks at 13* What you are is the embodiment of another’s soul. Memories you have, visions that you see that are not your own are most likely those belonging to the one that gave you life. Yes I saw the humans before they destroyed themselves. To be honest, I’m glad to be ready of them. . . .
13: But I DO remember OTHER StitchPunks, BEFORE the war. * squints thinking* And I KIND of remember my Mentor, and Father figure. . . . . *sadly* I can’t remember his name .. . .
11: Like I’ve said before, other than one more, I’ve never seen any others like me before. I’d have to say you three are the first sign of life I’ve seen in almost 2 years now.
*all walking beside each other. 21 looks like she wants to give 11 and 13 a hug*
13: *looking down* I don’t know what happened to ANYONE . . .Or myself for that matter. I . . . just woke up here, at this time. My greatest regret is that I DON’T know what happened to my Mentor. . . . *pulls out pin* I DO know, however, that THIS belonged to him . . . .
11:*looks around cautiously* 20,21 help 13 get up there. . . . *climbs a pile of rubble* we’re almost out, but we need to move fast. . . .
*20 and 21 Loop 13’s arms over their necks, and, with their free hands, scale the pile*
* they put 13 down again*
13: Thanks . . . .* holds chest where he was wounded. Looks up to 11 and smiles* all of you .. . . .
11* sits next to 13and checks to make sure he’s holding up ok* Does it still hurt? *asks realizing her own wound has no feeling anymore*
13: *groans* not . . . . HURT, it just aches a little. . . .(t’awww . . . . ‘heart’ ache!!! XD )
11: *pats 13’s back gently and reassuringly* We can rest a moment. But right after we need to move on. I suggest we head northeast. Head directly you’ll end up in the factory way out there. *points at the factory in the distance* Head west and you’ll run into the still active creature that lurk about still .. . .
13: *smiles wearily back at her and sighs* No, I can keep moving. *gets up* I’m used to pain . . . . .
*20 and 21 look between each other*
21: You . . . .sure . . ?
13: * looks into distance* I’m fine. *turns and smiles at them* Though I’m NOT looking forward to encountering those MONSTERS again.
11: *laughs and drags 13 down* well than rest for me, I’m not used to pain, nor do I enjoy it.
13: *laughs gently* Ok. *sits down next to her putting his hand between them, and leaning back, still looking into the distance*
11: *looks up at 20 and 21* You two are . . .brother and sister, right?
*they look between each other, confused then back at 11*
20: Yes. Why?
11: Just curious, that’s all. *looks around* well we better press on. Like I said before, it’s best we head northeast that way. *points to the side* Maybe we’ll find the ones you’re looking for there . . .
13: *dumbfounded* You- you won’t stay with us . .? Once we find them, you’ll leave?
21: 11. . .
*20 tries to act like he doesn’t care, but you can see his worry*
11: I haven’t exactly made up my mind yet. . . For all I know those others you speak of might not even exist. If they do all I need is to see them. To be honest what reason do I have to linger where I’m not wanted? *sighs and looks away* It’s .. . hard to explain.
20: Well, we ARE numbered. There MUST be more. .
21: He’s right. We CAN read, and we came upon a book that had the numbers 1 - 67 in the pages. . . . The 9 may still very well be alive.
13: *looks down* You don’t NEED to explain. I often fear I’M the reason the others were killed. Maybe that’s the reason I don’t have a memory that goes too far back . . . . I’m being punished for killing the others . . . . *puts hand down ,and it lands on 11’s hand. Slightly startled, he looks into her optics*
11: *looks back a little in surprise and then away quickly* So? Humans share the same names, that doesn’t always mean there are more of them. And if is was your fault for the others’ deaths, 13, thane wouldn’t you think I’d be dead by now? *laughs a little awkwardly and stands up* come on, let’s get moving .. .
21: What I MENT was the numbers lead up to OURS. 1-21. We MUST’VE been created in order. . . .
13: *looking down* No, what if I . . .DID . . .something that led the Beasts to my Clan? *barely looking at 11* You KNOW I’m a coward .. . . I probably led them right to us. *eyes widen* Maybe . . . That’s how the beast found YOU before!
11: I highly doubt that 13. That creatures’ been after me since . .. Well . . .let’s just say a while. And what’s this talk about being a coward? You saved my life back there. If it weren’t for you, I’d still be in that creatures’ claws, side torn open . . . .*smiles* all of you, you saved me. That’s not cowardice.
*20 and 21 smile happily back at her*
21: Don’t mention it.
20: You’re one of us, now.
13: *smiles gently, then shrugs sheepishly, eyes still cast down* It was nothing. . . . *holds is arm, nervously* I . . . .I didn’t tell you everything before. When I had my vision, I saw the past and future, yes, but I ALSO felt IMMENCE fear, and the sensation of running. . . .These . . . .VISIONS - I can’t tell what’s REAL anymore, thanks to them
11: Running? Like running away from something?
11: *isn’t quite sure what to say because she doesn’t know him as well as the others, and continues walking* Watch your step! *Grabs 20*
20: Yeep! Thanks, 11.
21: *smacks her brother* Be more CAREFULL! We’ve ALWAYS been together, I’m NOT going to loose you NOW, because of your OWN clumsiness!!
13: *laughs, and stays near 11* *quietly to 11, smiles* hey, 11? . . .. Thanks. . . .
11: *whispers back* For what? *helps 13 get across a piece of wood*
13: *still holding her arm* What you said. Before. About . .. . . About me. You really don’t think it’s my fault?
11: I wouldn’t know for sure, but you don’t seem the type. I mean how could you possibly destroy the others? No, I don’t think you did anything wrong, but something tells me your keeping to yourself more than what you revealed. The day will come when you feel comfortable to tell someone about it. When the time comes, I hope the one you reveal to is someone genuine. *smiles and continues walking, throwing something slithery at 20 for the luhlz*

Chapter 8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
13: * smiles and Optics get wide, as if tearing.* I wish I knew what I’m ’keeping’. I honestly don’t know, but when I DO figure it out, it’ll be YOU, I tell. *looks down sheepishly again*
*object donks 20 on the head*
20: HEY!
21: *walks past them* *to 11* Good aim!
11: *laughs* Come on, let’s go. . . .that storm’s getting closer . . .that’s never good.
*20 rubs his head and follows, 13 not far behind*
13: Right behind you.
11: *climbs over things, walks through, pointing out and chatting to 21 about places she’s seen and things she’s learned*
*21 regales 11 about where her brother have been, and how they learned to read - they knew their creator, and he taught them before he was killed in the raids- and how humans pro-created*
13: *shudders* Humans . . . Are . . . . . Disgusting . . . . ..
11: *gags and laughs* wow. . . . I didn’t know humans were that strange *looks at own body* I don’t have anything like that, thank gawd . . . *looks back at 13 making faces and laughs*
13: *shudders again* ALTHOUGH, I figured out how WE create young. NOT as bizarre as humans, thankfully. We share our Souls with another. Don’t ask how I figured THAT out. . . . I guess it’s one of those ‘Instinct’ things . . ..
11: *still gags and laughs* That’s just creepy to me. . . . I’m sorry but it is. *looks ahead and points* There. That’s the factory. That’s not a place you want to go near, let me tell you. . .if you think that creature from before was bad, there are worse things lingering in there.
20: than why are we GOING there?!
11: *laughs* ‘cause it’s fun . . . *evil smirks* Unless you have a better plan . .
20: *grumbles* I’m telling you- SHES A SPY .. .
13: *rolls his eyes* it DOES sound fun. ANYTHING has to be safer - and dryer- than staying outside!
11: *glares* Spy for what, exactly? *trips and falls off a pile of rubble* eek!
13: *grabs her by the wrist - all he could reach at the moment- slides a bit of the way down with her, and pulls her unconsciously to his body, her pace meeting his* *stunned stare, then he lets out a bashful chuckle* Eh, heh-heh. . . . Sorry ‘bout that . .. . MY turn to keep YOU from falling. . . .
11: *clings to 13 as they slide down then let’s go embarrassed when they reach the bottom* Um . . .sorry . . .*picks up spear, and continues walking* C-come on, let’s keep moving . . . .
*13 is still standing in the same spot, too stunned to move yet* #0_0#
*20 and 21 follow down after them, and as 21 walks past 13, she raises an eyebrow at him and smiles suggestively*

YES!!! I canuse STAMPS!!!!

Bow down to his AWESOME-NESS!!!!
