Chapter 10 - Stranded

Steel, Crimson and Gadget were on a mission in search of Hope and Lucy who went missing, as it came to around 11:00 PM, they found the island and immediately parked.

As they got off, Gadget felt like she could sense something but didnt knew what it was, she then brushed it off and started preparing for the search, as they went searching for the captains.

Crimson then felt a bit stranger than he usually did, as if he wasn't his normal self, HE then brushed it off and pressed on. As they searched and searched, they had no clue where the girl's were.

Steel told Crimson and Gadget to return back to the boat but as they tried to get back, they were already lost, "That was impossible, it literally was open at the time, what is this?"

Crimson was frustrated by what he had to go through but now this, this became more hard to even handle, Gadget on the other hand was having problems with using the invention she created.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, NO!!!! WHAT IS THIS? It was working an hour ago". Crimson looked at the sun and came to the conclusion that it was past 1:30 AM, Steel decided to camp out for a while.

May 1st 2021

As Steel sat there at the fire while Crimson and Gadget both looked depressed with what's been happening to them, Steel suggested that they went to bed, that they feel better in the morning.

As they slept, Crimson suddenly woke up to the camp fire with no Steel nor Gadget attended, he went to find them, to see them making out, as they saw Crimson, they said terrible things about him.

"Oh look its mister virgin, wish you were doing something like this huh, Crimson?" Crimson must be in a dream because of how Steel would never say something like that about his best friend.

"Look carefully because me and him, we're making history in front of you, your mom and dad were right about you, you're better off with no friends". Crimson's sanity was becoming harder to control.

Crimson in reality was sleeping and having a nightmare, then came Gadget, she woke up to see her inventions seemingly trying to kill her, as she ran, she came across corpses.

But not just any corpses but the remains of Steel and Crimson, she screamed and wished it was a bad dream, she still slept but had that nightmare stuck in her mind.

Finally came Steel, he woke up to a ship that looked to be the same as Thea's but what he saw was different, he saw Thea, Lucy and Hope as young children but with also a boy.

He couldn't help but eavesdrop on them, he heard, "Z, I love you, when we grow up, will you make me your bride and that you would Marry me?" it sounded familiar to Steel but he didn't know why.

As he watched on, he saw the boy get sent overboard and saw how he was drowning, he tried to help but there was nothing to do but just watch from the distance.

He finally woke up and saw that Crimson and Gadget seemed to be having nightmares, he tried to wake them up but it was no use, they were dreaming something that is affecting them negatively.

Steel needed to do something quickly until he came across a shadow, he followed it and then saw Lucy and Hope in the same state as Crimson and Gadget were in.

Steel was in deep trouble.
