Urraina was currently at her home, inserting the materials such as chitin and feathers into the machine. Blue's soul 'watched' in curiosity as he wanted to see the process of the body being made...
The hologram slowly got more colored in as the materials were inserted. The hologram was close to being fully colored, but missed a part on the chest area that seemed empty.
"So, I need to insert the soul as the last ingredient, eh?"
Urraina turned around at the now frantic soul in a jar and picked it up, opening the jar into the empty hole on the back of the machine.
"So, now, the wait....". Urraina stated anxiously as she worried about whether or not the soul would be compatible with the body.
Meanwhile, with the abandoned boys...
"When'd ya think boss and Cross are coming back?" said Horror as he was chewing on a peeled chestnut. (A/N: he ate the unpeeled ones before.)
"Probably would take a few hours, since that opponent looked pretty strong. Oh look, there's Cross!" Dust pointed out as Cross was limping with a golden cherry flower imprinted on his forehead.
"Cross! What happened!?!? And why isn't Boss with you?" Yelled Killer as he saw that Boss wasn't with him.
"S-She got him, and that giant metallic tree, it grabbed him and took his soul. I was taken by four golden trees, now I'm soulbound to them as a slave." Cross pointed at his forehead with trembling socketlights.
The gang were too shocked to speak. Their boss was gone, possibly dead, and their ally which they considered a brother was turned into a slave!
"Why didn't you wait with us!?!? Why!?!? We lost boss, now you're a slave of some creator-damned trees! Tell us, why! Why..." Dust slumped down, crying. He already lost his family, now he lost his adoptive boss as well.
In denial, he ran into the castle.
"Dust, wait!" Killer shouted as he chased Dust.
Awkward silence between Horror and Cross was suddenly interrupted by the echoing voices of four young children.
-I told ya the slave would take us to is' home!-
+I feel kinda bad, but the more the merrier!+
*C'mon guys, we don't need so many!*
=Oh really, you got the first one Cherni!=
Arguing about who was gonna get who, the skeleton duo was in a battle pose as a rip in reality ripped apart and four fruit saplings that could be recognized in pots walked through.
-Don't feel bad Constellase, you'd have your own first caretaker! No purple lizard to water us with soda!-
*I'll stay out of this since I've already claimed the monochrome one. Cross, stand next to me!*
Cross's eyesockets became empty while the leaves on his head glowed, and he walked straight up to the cherry sapling.
"C-cross?" Horror stuttered as cross walked oh so easily to the saplings. His friend was trained as a soldier and he succumbed this fast, so if he himself was branded then he would become more easily controllable that Cross!
Horror grit his teeth and got ready to fight as the Starfruit sapling poised its roots to brand Horror as its first slave...
