"Hiyeeeee? Hiyeeee!"
Whatever he was saying was very hard to understand, and he went back to nomming on heads
August: ...
He gets a good look at 217's cracked orb.
August: ...Oh...oh...I see....
He slowly and carefully walks up to 217 and puts a hand over the crack on his orb. August gets strangely calm, going perfectly still. He closes his eyes. 217's orb starts to heal
"....Vughhh!"
He bonked his head on August's chest and bolted away.
August: Mgh-W-WAIT!
He sprints after him
August: 2-217! 31 NEEDS YOU! H-HE LOVES YOU-YOU LOVE HIM! Y-YOU HAVE TO COME BACK...YOU HAVE TO COME BACK FOR HIM!
He turned and looked at August. He looked like he was going to attack him
Kaz runs up and pulls on August's arm
Kaz: August...we need to go...
August: N-no... he's my friend-I can't leave him!
He breaks free and puts a hand on 217's orb. He heals it the rest of the way, shaking a little from the effort.
217 staired at August, but something was still wrong with him.
"Hiyeee?!" He bit August
August: AUGH!
Kaz: AUGUST!
he pulls him away. August struggles against him
August: Let me go! L-let me go-I have to help him-
Kat: August, there's nothing you can do!
He ran away, disappearing into the bushes
Kaz: ...
August sighs and deflates a little. Kaz lets him go.
August: ...I'm going to find the portal.
Kaz: W-WHAT!?
August: I know there's one in this woods...I have to go find him...
