Ch 5. Apology unaccepted

“Hmph”. The unknown person said. He sees Gabe, Kayla, Joshep, and Munashe walking towards home. He’s more focused on Gabe. “Well, well, well, where do you lead to... my prey?” he said with a deep, dark voice. “You could be my victim for my success. He said in a dark, creepy voice.” Let’s see where you keep all of that thought in your brain. He follows them secretly, slowly, and silently forward without being spotted once. He is holding a Spider-man web launcher toy thing with tapping with his fingers, each round. Gabe, his friends, and not even his brother are not aware of the big, old junky bus... yet.

As I return home with my two friends and my brother, we all notice a bunch of people standing in front of the outbound round dead-end road. It’s everyone from the fight that’s waiting for us to come back, or they’re waiting for me. They’re all glaring at us. “And just where have you been, Gabe?” my guardian mom asks suspiciously. I sighed as I tried in a respectable. “I was near the lake regretting of what I said to you guys,” I said when trying to avoid something that wouldn’t start something else that they would not like to hear. “We were worried about you! “My bio Mother said with fear.” Please don’t run away like that again! “,” Look, I know owe all of you an apology, but I wish I could apologize too. But I can’t.” I said. “Because I think I have to do more than just to say sorry. “Everyone was still not pleased. Almost everybody.
Maria stepped in the accepted my apology either way I wanted to or not.” Don’t worry no more about it, Gabe. I knew you were trying to help me. Right? “she looked at Mako like she needed to apologize too. But her facial expression tells me she doesn’t need to.” I don’t know, was he? “she rudely responded. To be honest, I didn’t want to care less about her, cause I knew she’d get on about responsibilities, common sense, and stuff. Like she’s trying to make a better version out of me. I wanted to care if she didn’t want to apologize to me or does.
“Gabe, from what I saw so far. We know you’re trying your very hardest to get us and other people back in shape, but not everyone needs to be happy like all the time “, Marco replied. He could be right. But what about now? Why not? Otherwise, people won’t succeed back in their normal lives.” I understand people can feel however they want to feel free, but still don’t get that we can’t feel good non-stop now until then though. It’s like once we’re up, something will put us straight down“. I explained.” You still don’t get it, do you? “Mako annoyingly asked.” I’m pretty sure for no offense, either y’all don’t understand. Or we all don’t. So no. I don’t think so. “I said back. “Bruh, are you serious now?” Mako asked annoyingly asked once again. Marco stepped in to avoid another argument. “Yo, let’s not start this again. It’s over. Let’s call it a day”. “Yeah, friend,” Maria said positively to Mako. “Let’s have a sleepover”. It was getting very late. Everyone had a long day, after all. Mako nodded her head.
“Okay,” I said, “Let’s start a brand new slate tomorrow. I’m sure things will turn back- “, “Um, no way.” Mako interrupted. “Why not?” I asked in a lord, what is it now face? “Gabe. Are you sorry or not?” Mako asked forcefully. “Mako, enough.” My guardian's mom said to avoid back into another argument. “No, Mom. I think Gabe has had enough of this make-up plan,” she said. “If he was sorry, he would end this process, NOW”. Things are coming back the way they did at the party. And of course, I ain’t going to let that plan slide down. “I’m sorry, Mako. But I don’t think so yet,” I said. “Gabe, just stop now, okay? It’ll be okay for us,” Kayla said. “Yeah, for us, not everyone else!” I said back. “Oh my lord, Gabe. Not everybody has to be happy. You can’t control how they feel by just having them review your plan. Only you can control yourself, not them, not us, YOU,” Mako complained. The moment I was going to say something next, once again, she interrupted me again. “No, no, no, no, STOP. It. Is. Over. Let it go. Live in your happy place by yourself and leave us alone, before you mess ours up again”. By myself? Alone. Being happy with myself? Like I’m the negativity and depression affection that started this in the first place? “WHAT?” I asked in a bad tone. Okay, no things are going back the way they shouldn’t be.

“Hey, break it up!.” Joey interrupted. “Mako, that wasn’t necessary to say to Gabe at all!” my stepmother Special K said. “It’s not supposed to be like that when making things good.” Special K continued. “So? Don’t support and be on his side! You two know he needs to learn boundaries!” Mako argued. “So where exactly are your boundaries then?” I suspiciously asked her. She looked at me like I was baffling. “See what I mean? ”What do you mean?“ I continued. ”Gabe. Do you wanna get hurt? Cause I’m about to lose it!“ She warned. I’m the same warning for her. I’m about the blowup. ”Yes. I wanna go to where my so-called Happy place is, and don’t get hurt by someone who's making feelings terrible. I don’t want to get hurt more than you don’t want me to! And yes. I’m bout to flipping erupt now!“ ”Gabe I want Spider-man!“ Munashae said. ”No, Nash, not now, “ I told him. ”Molly! Just separate from each other, please!” Maria begged Mako. ”Benji was just standing having a headache when he noticed my stepmom having even worse headaches. So he had to step in. “Mako. There’s got to be another way to settle this. Compromise! Make something out of the other”, “THANK YOU!” I thanked Benji for waiting for someone to agree with me, not an agreement though. “Gabe I’m gonna get Spider-man,” Nashea said. “Nashae, not right now!” I told him repeatedly.
“Gabe. I swear to god-” Mako gave her final warning until when I interrupted, ”Mako, I will PRAY to god, if no one gets better, whether or not they need help or not, and their and our happy lives are fading away in the darkness, once more, endlessly impossible to convince someone who’s missing the dang point, I will have to find someone or someplace to restore this son of a blessing if it’s going to take me getting beaten up by someone, who isn’t helping at all! Someone, who is missing out on what you’ll be suffering with!” I explained and she still didn’t care. “Gabe!”, Mako yelled, “ Mako! ”, I yelled back, “Molly!”, Maria called, “Yo!”, Marco called, “Quit it all of you!”, my guardian mom screamed, “Stop it!”, Benji screamed, while those loud calling words, I hear a loud car noise like it’s attempting to turn on, but I was too focused on convincing the one wrongly convincing me until I hear one last name call. “Gabe, I got Spider-man! I got Spider-man!”, “ Munashae, I told you, Not... now?”

As I turned after telling my brother many times “Not now”, I saw he was in an old rusty bus with some stranger, or I can say, Kidnapper was trying to take my brother. “Hey!” I yelled. The mysterious person looked at me as he was caught red-handed, “Oh Spit”, “Munashae!”, my guardian mom called, “Aye yo!”, Marco called, “Munashae! Get right out of that freaking bus right now!”, Mako called, “But I want spider-”, Munashae was about to say I want Spider-Man until I interrupted his meaning, “Nash! Get over here!”, As I ran up to the bus, but the man already has started the engine and took off. But the bus was slow due to its old parts of the bus. “Sorry lads, I need this subject for my experiments.”, the mysterious man responded. “Asta la vesta, baby!”, as he almost drove off but still a little faster than before, me seeing my little brother taken away, just made me more mad as it gained me more speed onto the run-a-way bus. “NO!” I yelled while I ran then jumped behind the bus emergency door, luckily the door was way halfway open for me to enter inside of the bus. I struggled my way getting inside the emergency door behind the back of the bus. I saw Nashae sitting down on one of the seats. And the man who was driving.
When I entered, The bus also smelled and it was old, moldy, dry, and dusty. “Nash!”, I whispered, “We need to get out!”, “But I-”, Nash tried to tell me something but I was focused on getting him and me the heck out of the bus. “NO. We need to get out. We’re in trouble right now!”, “I want to see Spiderman!” he yelled. “You got Spider-man, now let’s go!”, I told him. But I realized we’re moving. We could get seriously hurt. “We’re gonna have to wait for him to stop at a traffic light or a stop sign,” I whispered to him. I was wondering how the others were going to get to me. The mysterious man stopped at a stop sign, luckily there were a couple of cars driving by in front of the street. Then I saw behind me Marco’s car and Benji’s car behind Marco’s car. They all got out and rushed to the back door of the bus. “Guys! keep quiet!”, I whispered, “I ain’t going to keep quiet when our brother is being kidnapped! Get out of my way!” Mako yelled.
“Hey you!” the old man noticed us! “He belongs to me!” “Falcon Punch!” Marco charged toward the old man, unfortunately, the old man dodged the attack by just sliding to one of the seats, which led Marco to crash into the bus device buttons. Mako gave him a deadly beat the son of a butt whopping, unfortunately again, the man dodged all of her attacks unexpectedly with flexible movements of dodging. Did mako look like WTF? Next, the old man brought up some kind of balloon gun, “Say hello to my funny friend, ConFunti!” he shouted, “What the” Mako was about the cuss when! A bunch of confetti blasted on Mako which gave a strong force pushing her away. She crashed on some of the seats with a little damage. Then the man got out some kind of radio walkie-talkie. “This is joyful light 123, I’m being ambushed, Over!” I was wondering what he meant by his name but instead, I grabbed hold of Munashae and rushed through to the exit of the back of the bus. Mako and Marco were knocked out like a light. Now I was on my own until I noticed some car lights.
I saw the others standing outside looking terrified of my brother being taken. “Joey! Kayla! Take Nashae!” I told them. They rushed to me as they were about to grab hold of him when suddenly, “It sounds like you kids need a Hand?” I turned around to see what he was talking about. He had that grab-pack hands from that horror game that had kids turned into toys. I looked in shock without even realizing, “Joey! Kayla! Take him!” As soon as I dropped Nashae, I was too late. The old man used the grab pack to grab me while I was putting Nashae down. Then I was pulled into the darkness of the bus. “Help!” I shouted, “Gabe!” Joey and Kayla shouted, they grabbed Nashae’s legs with force, “Ow!” Nashae said with a hurt stretch. “We got you!” Kayla struggled with Joey. The others were very scared, especially my moms. My guardian mom, bio mom, and stepmom were extremely worried with anxious. Thinking I’d be taken away with my brother, sister, her boyfriend, and my friends. Maria was scared as well, so she took some pictures from her phone of the broken bus.
Then, some strange vehicles pulled up for the old man’s report from his walkie-talkie radio thingy with some of his assistance and resistance. They got out of their vehicles and connected the broken bus with some hooks, and pumps. Strange lights went all over the bus. Then, the bus transformed into a very colorful neon texture all around the outsides and insides, as for the insides, the dirty seats turned into some fun-sized seats, the floor turned from having some holes on the floor to having a rainbow floor, the windows had pictures of fun characters and things on the walls and windows. Musical tunes played while I was hanging on from trying to get pulled from the grab pack. So all of the junky stuff of the bus turned into a kid-friendly bus?! So this was a disguise?! “Somebody get my babies!”, my guardian mom screamed with fear, Benji stopped her from rushing through. “Let go of me!”, she cried, “Enetty, you can’t!” Benji caught hold of her cause the people with weird-looking mascots from the vehicles surrounded them with laser guns.

One of the mascots who looked like a queen with a motorcycle outfit princess theme version, or something like that, came up to them which could be their commander. “You may not compete with us.” the commander said. “Bring me back my babies!” she screamed. “I’m sorry, we will bring them back once they’ve received their sun risers.”, the commander said, “What are you talking about?!”, my guardian mom screamed again with more anger. “It seems like you’ve lost way too many of your happy brights.”, she explained, “GIVE ME BACK MY KIDS NOW BEFORE I-”, “Enetty! let her speak!” Benji told her, “No! Please give them back to me!” she cried. “I think it’s some kind of program they're trying to do with them. But no harm to them though!” Benji suggested. “Looks like somebody’s getting the idea!” the queen rider mascot said. “I don’t care if you’re having a super kid-friendly daycare, I want my kids back! I don’t trust you at all! You could’ve at least called! I will so kill you if you touch any of my children!” Enetty threatened.
Another mascot who looked like a lion combined with a dragon came up to the commander. “Queenz, they’ve passed the test,” he said. The other mascots were scanning them for some kind of sunlight with a sun monitor thingy. I do not know what’s going on and why they’re using strange things. Neither of us knows. “Copy that. Receive them to their transportation. I’ll stay behind and walkthrough with these depressions.” She responded to her co-worker. “What are you doing with them?” my stepmom said. “Don’t worry, with the world turning into a deep depression of darkness, we’re here to restore that,” the queen rider commander responded. “Oh my god, not this again! We’ve already discussed that damn thing with my son and daughter, convincing each other to keep my son’s nose out of our feelings! Not everybody has to be happy!” my stepmom argued. “I see,” the commander said. “You can discuss that with me while they go to their happy place, permeate.”, “What?! No! Give them-” my stepmom got more angry. And my bio mom was even more worried. As for my guardian mom, she got more pissed until the commander paused them before more negativity rises from them.
“Mam. I know this is very concerning.” “CONCERNING?!” my guardian mom yelled, “Okay, maybe even more concerning than ever cause we came out of nowhere,” the commander admitted. “DUH!” My step and guardian's mom said with anger. “I know this is hard. But your kids will be okay. I promise. We’re not strangers, just taking them. We’re doing this in a hurry cause from what you’ve already experienced, strangers, your feelings will collapse into broken hearts.” the commander explained. My guardian mom sobbed with tears. Everyone else is as worried as well. Maria, however, was still recording the confusing scene and taking photos. “Mam, if you’re saying these kiddish level-up programs, where exactly are you taking them?” Benji asked. “Alright, enough’s enough,” the old man said. He pulled Gabe with him holding Nashae along with him, including Joey and Kayla. “AHHHHHHHHH!” they screamed. “NOOO!” my guardian mom screamed, “We’re going to have a fun time!” the old man phrased, as he closed the door and with the other mascots left to their vehicles.
My guardian mom froze in fear. “What do you want with them?” as my guardian mom was about to lose it “Mam, like I said, we will not hurt them, they’ll be okay. I promise. We’ll give them back once they’ve received their sunrisers.” She explained. When someone’s lost their true joy, they lose their character, like they’re not themselves at all. That’s where we come in. We’re going to restore the world to make it back to a better place. Whether people like you are happy, we will restore our freedom. We’ll find things we’ve enjoyed doing like every day,” she explained once more. “Mam, I’m gonna ask again. Where are you taking them?” Benji asked forcefully. “We’re taking them to a place where many fun activities, discoveries, and adventures continue to grow non-stop where and whatever they do. They’ll experience a lot of exciting things to explore. Danger is still lurking there too, but we’ve got that covered, though.” she said. “Families and friends, your loved ones will receive their happy wonders back to humanity in our official wonderful place.” Everyone was so still. until she responded with what they’d be taking them to. “Let’s discover... in Adventure Land,” she announced.
