[Name] POV
An hour had already passed, and I was hanging out with the Smiling Critters. I told them about the outside—well, not all about the outside. The outside is no different from here; that's what I told them.
"You're telling me, living toys don't exist outside?"
Asked the chicken critter.
"Yeah, boring, right? It's actually pretty normal out there, well, if you ignore some chaos."
And the usual quiet cat decided to chime in.
"It's much better out there… than here…"
Dogday perked at Catnap's tone, hinting at something in the factory. Dogday didn't want me finding out some things that shouldn't be known to outsiders like me because… it would endanger me.
The others also looked at Catnap simultaneously, with Bubba shaking his head. I noticed their strange expressions, but I pretended not to notice.
I turned to Catnap, tilting my head, 'confused'. "Why not? It seems nice here…"
Catnap merely huffed, turned his head away, and returned to sleeping on the couch.
Dogday discreetly pinched Catnap's side, making the purple cat hiss at him.
Because of what Catnap said, everyone was silent. The silence was awkward.
"uh… Is something wro–"
There was a knock on the door. Bubba, being near the door, went over and opened it.
The person who knocked turned out to be Stella, accompanied by two security guards.
"Hi everyone!... Thank you for taking care of our lost guest. Now I will take her back."
Everyone turned to Stella. Although they seemed relaxed with her, they were on guard for the two men behind her.
I stood up from the couch, smiling at Stella. Then I turned to the critters.
"It was nice meeting you guys…"
I waved at them all and grinned widely at Dogday. I was about to follow Stella when I turned and ran to Dogday, which surprised him slightly.
"Here! Let this be a gift for becoming my first friend here!.."
I handed him some kind of keychain of a blue ballerina.
As I walked back over to Stella, who was waiting, I waved at the other critters.
"Bye guys! I will visit when I can! I promise! I will give you something from outside when I come back!"
Bobby was dramatically crying, like she would see me off to a battlefield or something, with Crafty by her side patting her back.
Catnap was just there, sleeping on the couch. Kickin waved goodbye, of course, Hobby was beside him. Bubba just nodded at me, while Dogday…
Dogday was staring at the keychain before his gaze went to me, now beside Stella, walking away.
He had… a strange feeling…

No one's POV
A while back
In the dimly lit security room, two scientists stood in front of many cameras. One light-skinned, the other fair-skinned; a female and a male, both blonde.
Minutes passed, when soon one camera caught their attention. It started glitching; everything was in time-lapse in the footage in Playcare.
Thirty minutes passed in the CCTV until there was something that stunned them. There was a glitch in the screen before it was back to normal; everything was the same as before, except for the figure of the girl lying against the bench near the CCTV. A figure that wasn't there, but appeared out of nowhere for just a few seconds.
