When the group reached the top of the corpse pile, Michelle approached the ledge and looked at the ground below. "My air jets can slow down the fall," she said before turning her head to Miss Delight and the smaller toys. "The others, however..."
Michelle turned her head to CatNap. "I'd hate to ask you this again, but would it be alright if the others ride on your back again?" she asked.
CatNap nodded before lying on the ground. "CLIMB ON..." he said.
After Michelle helped the smaller toys and Miss Delight get on CatNap's back, she grabbed the right arm cannon's handle before twisting the knob.
The orange hand switched to the purple hand before Michelle grabbed the left arm cannon's handle and looked at the ground below. "Now we can go," she said before jumping down.
The GrabPack's air jets activated before Michelle landed on the ground; as she walked forward, CatNap and DogDay jumped down while PJ Pug-A-Pillar got on the wall before moving forward.
When Michelle spotted a jump pad, she sprinted forward and aimed the right arm cannon at it before pulling the trigger, launching herself to the other side.
When Michelle landed on the ground, she spotted another jump pad before sprinting toward it; she aimed the right arm cannon at it and pulled the trigger, which launched her to the other side.
After Michelle landed on the ground, she saw a beam between two platforms; she carefully walked on it before she reached the other side. When Michelle looked up, she saw a handle on the roof before aiming the left arm cannon at it and pulling the trigger.
The blue hand shot forward and grabbed the handle before Michelle sprinted forward and jumped. As Michelle swung herself to the other side, she pulled the trigger, which made the blue hand retract back to her before she landed on the ground.
When Michelle stood up properly, she saw a train, which made her smile a bit. "That's our ticket to the prison," she said before walking forward.
After the rest of the group caught up to Michelle, the phone started ringing, which made her grab it off the GrabPack's hook before holding it out. "Hey, it's me again, Ollie," Ollie said. "I wanted to... I wanted to talk to you. Before you go inside, I mean."
Michelle stared at the phone. "Go on," she said.
"Everything you've seen out here... the piles... the dead... they ALL came from inside," Ollie said. "Believe me, everything Poppy said about this place is true. It's Hell..."
Michelle remained silent and looked down. "But she also hasn't seen it like I have; it's worse now, worse than ever..." Ollie continued. "Just try to stay safe. Please... don't let your guard down for a second... I'll try to help you when I can."
After the phone call ended, Michelle stared at it with a stoic face; DogDay looked at her with worried eyes. "Misha?" he asked.
Michelle flinched a bit and shook her head. "Sorry about that..." she said in a low voice before she hooked the phone on one of the GrabPack's hooks and looked at the train. "We need to get this train powered up."
As Miss Delight and the smaller toys got off CatNap, Michelle turned her head to the right and froze when she saw a corpse lying next to a door and a note beside it. Michelle closed her eyes and took a deep breath before exhaling.
Soon after, Michelle opened her eyes and approached the note; when she was close to it, she let go of the arm cannons' handles before picking it up. DogDay approached Michelle and looked at the note as she read it. "What does it say?" he asked.
Michelle remained silent before turning to DogDay. "She refused to eat them," she said. "The corpses... it also says that she has the key to prevent us from going inside."
After Michelle dropped the note on the ground, she looked at an open cell suspended above the train from a crane. "Something tells me she's up there," she continued before approaching the closest cell. "I need to get up there."
DogDay nodded as he followed behind Michelle; when they were close to the cell, she was silent and looked down. DogDay looked at Michelle, concerned. "Misha?" he asked.
Silence filled the room until Michelle turned her head to DogDay with somber eyes. "Do you..." she said in a low voice. "Do you know if there's a blanket around here somewhere?"
DogDay looked at Michelle with somber eyes before looking around. Soon after, DogDay spotted a large gray blanket on top of a barrel before approaching it. After DogDay grabbed the blanket, he quickly approached Michelle and held it out. "Here..." he said in a low voice.
Michelle grabbed the blanket from DogDay's hands. "Thank you..." she said in a low voice.
DogDay nodded as he picked up Michelle before placing her on top of the cell. Michelle approached the open cell and entered; when she turned the corner, she saw a decaying Kissy Missy toy sitting on a toilet. "Riley..." she said in a low voice.
Michelle spotted the key in Riley's ribcage before carefully grabbing it and pulling it out. After Michelle hung the key on one of the GrabPack's hooks, she looked at Riley before undoing the blanket and draping it over her.
After Michelle let go of the blanket, she placed her hands together and closed her eyes. "If there is a God... please guide this innocent soul back to your arms, and may she finally rest in peace..." she said in a low voice.
After Michelle opened her eyes and pulled her hands away, she walked toward the opening before landing on top of a red cell. "I'm back..." she said in a low voice.
DogDay looked at Michelle. "Did you find—" he stopped midsentence when he saw tears pricking her eyes. "Ah... I see..."
Michelle quickly wiped her tears away with her right arm. "I'll be fine..." she said before jumping down and approaching the door. "I got the key."
When Michelle was close to the door, she grabbed the key off the GrabPack's hooks and placed it in the lock before twisting it, which unlocked it.
Michelle let go of the key before placing her hand against the door and pushing it open, revealing a small room with a power socket on the other side near a TV with a pale blue VHS player under it.
Michelle turned her head to the left and saw a pale blue VHS tape on a shelf before approaching it; when she was near it, she grabbed it before approaching the TV.
After Michelle inserted the tape into the player, she looked at the TV as it booted up. "Hey, Cole," a young security guard said.
"Hey, Norm," a middle-aged security guard said.
"Two o'clock, huh? Best time of the day," Norm said.
"Yeah..." Cole said in a low voice.
"So, uh... what block are you again?" Norm asked.
"North," Cole said.
"Can't say I hear much about that one," Norm said.
Michelle heard Cole huff. "You wouldn't," he said.
"High security?" Norm asked.
"HIGHEST security," Cole said.
Michelle heard Norm click his tongue. "Cushy..." he said in a low voice. "Know what we get in the East? Toys banging on the walls, crying for their parents, their counselors, whatever."
Michelle gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. "It goes ALL day and night... and it just wears on you, ya know? I'd KILL for a little security... and quiet," Norm continued.
Michelle heard Cole huff. "Right... know what we get in the North? Things... whatever they are, they aren't people anymore. Their cells might as well be cages," he said. "They're animals... sick... twisted... just instincts and anger."
Michelle heard Cole sigh. "That's all that's left of them," he continued.
"Sure, but at least then it's not like yelling at your own kids for them to be quiet, though, ya know. I mean, if you had to listen to them—" Michelle heard screeching and banging in the background, which made Norm groan. "Oh great..."
Cole sighed. "So much for our two o'clock," he said.
"Yeah, we really do have it rough, don't we?" Norm asked rhetorically.
When the TV turned off, Michelle's blood boiled and trembled in anger. "You two... having it rough..." she said in a low voice.
Michelle menacingly glared at the TV. "You fuckers don't have it nearly as rough as the children who were turned into these monsters because of the company you work for!" she shouted.
Michelle grabbed the TV and pulled the cord out of the plug. "You bastards deserve to burn in Hell!!" she shouted before throwing it at the glass, which shattered and hit the corpse's head.
The group looked at the broken window, shocked as the TV crushed the corpse's head; they looked at Michelle, worried, as she tried to catch her breath.
When Michelle looked at the group, she froze and guiltily turned her head away. "Sorry... what I saw really made me angry..." she said in a low voice.
Michelle looked at the power socket and grabbed both of the arm cannons' handles before aiming the right arm cannon at it and pulling the trigger.
The purple hand shot forward and touched the power socket, which lit the cable. "I remember seeing electric poles around the area," Michelle said before leaving the room.
After Michelle wrapped the cable around the poles, she spotted the input socket on the train before aiming the left arm cannon at it and pulling the trigger. The blue hand shot forward and touched the input socket, which started the train and opened two cells.
After the GrabPack's hands retracted back to Michelle, she approached the cells' doors and looked at them with a slight hum. "Not all of us are gonna fit in one cell," she said. "We'll need to separate into two groups."
DogDay nodded and looked at CatNap. "You take CatNap," he said, which made him glance at him. "I'll take care of the other toys."
Michelle looked at DogDay, surprised. "Are you serious?" she asked.
DogDay nodded. "I trust him to keep you safe," he said before looking at Michelle and placing his hand against his chest. "And I'll make sure the others are safe and sound."
Michelle stared at DogDay before nodding. "Very well," she said.
CatNap approached Michelle's side before looking at DogDay. "STAY SAFE..." he said in a low voice.
DogDay nodded. "Likewise," he said.
Bunzo Bunny looked at Michelle. "You stay safe too, Big Sis," he said.
Michelle smiled and nodded before the groups approached the cells and entered them. Soon after, the cell closed behind the duo before the train started moving.
Michelle let go of the left arm cannon's handle and tapped the arm cannon's flashlight, which made it flash a bit until it turned on, before looking around with it. "Just your typical cell..." she said in a low voice.
The duo heard static behind them, which shocked them and made them look at the TV in the corner. Soon after, the duo saw a closed eye surrounded by static on the screen before it blinked a bit. "Now what do we have here...?" a male British voice asked.
CatNap glared at the TV with a growl, his ears pointing back. "I'm guessing you're the Doctor I've been hearing about," Michelle said.
The Doctor eyed Michelle. "And you must be the annoying germ 1006 spoke of, squirming beneath my skin," he said. "But to think it would be one of the orphans from the different orphanage..."
The Doctor eyed CatNap. "And you brought 1188 with you as well; how interesting," he continued, which made him snarl.
The cell started shaking a bit, which made Michelle try to balance herself in surprise. "Well, little germ... let's make a game out of you..." the Doctor said.
Soon after, the cell started shaking roughly, which made Michelle grit her teeth. "You've blundered along the shadows above and only managed to squirm all the way down here, but by the barest skin of your teeth," the Doctor continued.
Soon after, the momentum in the cell managed to launch Michelle into the air, which shocked her and CatNap. "There are no shadows here that would be of use to you. Not even the ground beneath your feet is yours," the Doctor continued.
Soon after, Michelle hit the ground on her right side hard, which made her yelp and made CatNap look at her with panicked eyes. "ANGEL...!!" he shouted.
Michelle groaned with blurry vision and rolled onto her stomach before laying her left arm against the ground and pushing herself up a bit. "There are no places you can hide... not from me," the Doctor said.
Michelle weakly stared at the Doctor as he laughed before she collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
