Chapter 8- not dead, yole berries and something unexpected

Start from the beginning
                                        

I look at what everyone else is doing. Salt and pepper are in the corner talking, probably about makeup and all of that boring girly stuff. Apple and marshmallow are fighting. So are knife and trophy. And yin-yang. Mic, soap and cheesy are talking, but mic isn't listening, as she's too busy watching knife in awe. Same with soap looking at Yin-Yang. And I'm pretty sure cheesy is just telling loads of terrible puns. If the girls were actually paying attention to him, they would probably be really annoyed by now. OJ just brought in more snacks for us all and paper is helping him. Bomb is sorting out the music for our mini party, because no one else will. Every day here is like a mini party. Pickle is playing video games. Lightbulb is seeing how many cookies she can eat at once, and fan is live streaming it for some reason. Test tube is only there because fan is there and paintbrush is only there because he/she said "I'm only staying so when this goes horrible for you guys I can say 'I told you so'". Tissues is in his room like normal because of his cold. I say it's his room, it's not actually his room, he doesn't live here, he just spends a lot of time away from everyone by staying in that room because he gets colds a lot. Every time he gets a cold we joke and say he has the 'condiSHAWN' for no reason what so ever. But he spends so much time in that room, we've decided to call it his room. And the cherries are probably somewhere either coming up with new wars to prank people or creating new masks of everyone.
Then I look to suitcase and balloon. They are talking. Then I saw suitcase say something and balloon laughing before blushing when he saw that I was watching them. He has a huge crush on her and I'm the only other person who knows, but everyone else thinks he does. The only person who doesn't know is suitcase herself. I laugh to myself as I remember when I first found out for certain.

~~~~~le flashback of flashback-iness~~~~~~~~~
Me suitcase and nickel were all in the living room of the hotel talking about random crap. Then I felt a tap on my shoulder as I heard a high pitched voice behind me say "um.....baseball.........can I please talk to you in private?"
"Yeah, sure" I replied, slightly confused.
We walk upstairs into a different room. As we walk past tissues room we heard some sneezing. When we got into a room, I said "ok, so what's up?"
"I just want some advice......there's this girl I like, and I really wanna ask her out, but I don't know how, and your calm and confident, but not in a jerky way, so I just wanted to hear your opinion on what I should do."
My first thoughts were 'it's suitcase, isn't it.'
"Ok. First it's important to make sure that no matter what, you stay true to you. And any other advice I won't be able to give you unless I know what sort of person she is, because different girls like different things."
He hesitated before saying "well.......she's nice, funny, sweet, beautiful, and she's the only person who believes truly that I'm not a horrible person anymore and can trust me 100%. She means everything to me, but I'm not her only friend."
"It's suitcase, isn't it." I stated confidently.
He blushed so hard that his face was redder than not only his hair, but also his red hoodie that he wears all the time."........no?" He tried to say confidently, but it ended up sounding more of a question than a confident reply.
"Dude, your blushing. Plus it is pretty obvious. Everyone has guessed at some point or another that you fancy her."
"Is it really that obvious?"
"Yeah. But you know what else is obvious? The fact that suitcase really likes you as well. Everyone is pretty sure that she fancies the socks off of you, but even if she doesn't like you in a romantic way, she still likes you a lot. And no matter what, there no way that's gonna change soon. The best advice I can give you is to continue being yourself, because that's the you she likes, be confident in yourself, because no matter what you're still you, and you should be happy with that, and take the risk of asking her out, because weather she returns your romantic feelings or not, she would never end her friendship with 1 of her best friends just because they fancy her."
"Ok, thanks. This means a lot to me, baseball. I'm gonna ask her in a minute"
We went back to the living room, and balloon went up to suitcase.
"Um.......hey, there's something I need to tell you" he said, blushing madly
"Ok. What is it?"
"Well......um.......I love-"
"Hey what time is it?" Nickel said. I could tell he wasn't paying attention to what was happening with balloon and suitcase.
I liked at my phone.
"It's 12:30. Why?"
"Oh man, sorry guys, I've gotta go. I promised the guys at the BFD that I woul meet them around this time today at the park, because we had this good idea for a video that could happen there. When it's done I should show you. With how we've been planning it, it seems really funny. You guys will love it."
"Oh cool" I said, excited to see what this new video would be like, but slightly disappointed that he couldn't stay for longer.
"Yeah, that sounds really fun. I wish i could help." Suitcase said enfusuasticly.
"Sorry suitcase, but we've already got it all planed out. But I'll make sure next time you guys can help, ok. Well, I'm gonna go now, bye."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~flashback over~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But there was no next time. And we didn't see him later. That was the last time I saw him alive. That was the last time any of us saw him alive. Stop thinking abou this baseball, otherwise you'll start to-
~~~~~~~~~~~~yet another flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's been a few hours since nickel went to do that video with the rest of the bfd. I'm really looking forward to seeing it, it sounds really interesting. I looked over at balloon and suitcase. He still hasn't confessed. He keeps on trying, but something always gets in the way. I think he's trying again
"Suitcase, I just really need to say that I love-"
"HEY WHATS HAPPENUNG IN HERE?!" I heard lightbulb shouting as she walked into the room. She was being almost as loud as mic. Note how I say almost, because not many people are actually louder than her. In fact, the only person who I know to be around as loud as her claims that she loves butter, and does nothing with her day other than reading, writing, procrastinating, eating sleeping and watching YouTube. I forgot her name though.
"Not much" I reply, slightly annoyed for balloon
"Anyway, balloon, what were you saying? You love........."
"I-I love......." He started. The moment was gone and he could tell. He sighed and said "I love the air."
"O-oh yeah, same. It keeps us alive, and is quite refreshing when it's fresh." She replied, slightly disappointed.
"Yeah......." Was all balloon said in reply.
They just sat there awkwardly for a few minutes. I was about to break the silence when my phone started to ring. It was nickel. This was strange as when he was doing videos with the bfd he normally doesn't ring, and he wouldn't ring after, he would either just stay with them or come back here. I answered the call.
"Hello?" I answered slowly
"Baseball, thank goodness you picked up, I need help! It really is a matter of life or death this time and I didn't know what to do! There are people here in masks and everyone else is down and I'm running for my life and I dint know what to do!" He said quickly, in a panicked and out of breath voice. I could tell he wasn't joking.
"What did you mean?! What is happening?!what do you mean by 'the others are down'?!" I tried to say as calmly as possible, but I had a hard time trying to stay calm.
"We had just finished the video so we decided to relax and play tag when a man we don't know grabbed leafys arm and a bunch of other people wearing masks came along and starting nocking everyone out with baseball bats and shovels and stuff like that before shoving them in bags and dragging them away, so I ran, but I'm the last 1 left and they're all chasing me and I don't know what to do and I'm scared!!!!" He said really panicked, and I could tell by his voice he was starting to cry. I didn't know what to do
"WHERE ARE YOU RIGHT NOW?!"    (A/N: I'm at soup XD)
"I'm around the corner from the park! What should I do baseball, I can't keep running forever?!"
"Just jeep running as fast as you can and for as long as you can, I'm gonna call the police and I'll go to you and try and make sure that your safe"
"But what if they get you too?!"
"I'll bring the others with me because safety in numbers."
"But there were 31 of us before and the rest of them were taken down! How are we suppose to manage with on,y 25 of us?! But then again, box isn't even alive, so that makes 24! If 30 people got taken down so easily, 24 more should be simple for them!"
"Ok, we won't go, but I'm still calling the police. Stay safe"
"I will try-"
I then heard a loud bang that sounded like mettle hitting something, like a skull. Then I heard another loud bang which sounded like a body dropping to the floor. Then the phone signal was lost
"Nickel?! NICKEL?!"
I dialled 911 into my phone
"911, what's your emergency?"
"I need the police and ambulance and anyone else who can help quickly!" I said, my voice failing at showing any calmness what so ever
"What is happening?"
"Earlier my friend said he was going to the park with some of his other friends to film a video and I just got a call from him saying that there are people in masks nocking out everyone, and shoving them in bags, and then it sounded like he got nocked out, and the signal from his phone got lost, so I'm really worried, and I don't know what to do!"
"Ok, what park did you say they went to?"
"Nature park" (A/N: wow I'm really good at naming things XD)
"Ok, we'll be there in 5 minutes. where are you and what's your name?"
"I'm at the OJ mansion and my name is Bradly, but everyone calls me baseball."
"Stay there and stay in a group of people, baseball. We will keep you informed of what's happening
"Ok, thanks" I said before hanging up,
"What the heck was that about?!" Asked suitcase, her voice full of concern and confusion.
-------------a few hours after he finished explaining-------------
We were all waiting anxiously for any news in what was happening. Then there was a nock on the door. Oj went to answer it, and paper want with him just in case. After a couple minutes oj called me to go there, and I could tell by the look on his and papers faces that what I was about to hear was bad news.
"Are you the guy everyone calls baseball?"
"Yeah"
"I am so sorry tell you this but your friend and all of his friends are missing without a trace. All we could find at the crime scene are 2 photos and this." She said holding up nickels phone, but it was smashed and completely broken! When u saw that my heart sank and I burst end out in tears. Half an hour later everyone else came along and their reactions were similar to mine. Even trophy had slight tears in his eyes. Then I asked to see the 2 photos they found. The fist 1 was a normal 1 with everyone smiling and looking happy. The second 1 was haunting. It was taken accidentally. It was a picture of Firey about to be hit in the head by a shovel. He must of forgotten to put this camera down and accidentally pressed the photo button. I also saw leafy in the background, obviously about to try and help him. But I can tell that it would be too late for her to help him at this point.
I tried not to cry again, but only because I needed to stay strong for suitcase. She is pretty much a little sister to both me and nickel, and her parents go on holiday a lot, but she can't because of school, so now with nickel gone I'm the closest to family she has left. I gave to make sure that she's ok, and that she is able to move on eventually. I just have to.
