CHAPTER 2: Interdimensional Insanity

Inkwell: Yep, it only has 3 episodes so far. Animating is sooo hard! Glad I've got some friends to help me with it.

Flag: Good for you! I gotta say, you and your friend did an amazing job.

Inkwell: Three friends, the Chinese girl and the group leader Sara, the movie lover boy Paul, and the british non-binary poet Inna. Just some college student in an elite school who are trying to, of course, finish school and get their own jobs. They are such a happy trio, rather ebullient. They went through adventures together, played video games together, ate chicken nuggets together... But time passed by, Paul was reported missing. So Sara and Inna tried to find him but something also happened along the way. Well, Sara just faded to obscurity.

Flag: Wow! That was amazing writing over there! Do you plan to write the ending good or bad?

Inkwell: Not sure.

Flag: Yeah, I understand. Also, I just noticed, you talk but you don't open your mouth?

Inkwell: Is there anything wrong with that?

Flag: Oh! No. Of course not! I'm just wondering how you could do it.

Inkwell: It's called telepathy. I'm mute so I can't talk using my natural voice box. But, I also dunno how to do sign language and writing what I'm saying down would take a while so... I just used my telepathy powers granted by my great grandma.

Flag: Sounds interesting... Your great grandmother has telepathy powers too?

Inkwell: I guess so.

Inkwell and Flag then stared at the distance in silence. But, Inkwell seems to find something in the distance, something... glowing. Could it be the gem that Test Paper was talking about back in Inanimatica?

Flag: Is something wrong?

Inkwell: Can you... see the light from there?

Flag squinted his eyes, but it seemed like he couldn't see it.

Flag: Uhh... I see nothing. Are you sure that you're not just seeing things?

Inkwell didn't respond, stood up, dropped the Time Cube, and went towards the glowing thing. Flag decided to not follow them and just sit by the rock, concerned about Inkwell's actions. They then entered a forest, hearing the sounds of talking in the distance but it seems like the glowing is going towards the location where they could hear talking. Inkwell continued to walk... walk... walk... walk. They now found themselves in a grayscale plain. There is no color at all but the glowing thing was there in the middle... could it be one of the three gems? Inkwell looks excited and ran towards the gem when suddenly, a large black abyss formed and-

Thud!

Yang: Hey!! Watch where you're going, bozo brain!

Inkwell: (in a sarcastic tone) Well, sorry! You don't have to be so rude.

Inkwell can still see the glowing thing, they're getting closer. It appears to be covered in bushes so as they opened it, it's a gem! It could be one of the three gems but Test Paper never told them of what the gems looked like so they really couldn't tell. The gem also appears to be stuck on the ground. Inkwell tried their hardest to get the gem out but they're too weak. That's when The Floor appeared and offered them some help.

The Floor: Oh hey there non-contestant! Are you trying to get this gem off?

Inkwell: Woah! Where'd you come from?! Also, yes. Can you get it off for me?
