"This place has really changed..." Bobby says as she and Hoppy walk around Safe Haven a bit, Hoppy nods "yeah... it's kind of sad to see the toys here look ready to attack and devour anything they can to survive..." Hoppy shivers at the thought of what would happen to the scientists who were down here, they obviously didn't think anything bad could happen if they were to lock the toys up in their little holding cells, but of course karma always had a strange way of coming back to those who deserved it. "I remember when we were down here... before everything went from bad to worse... this place used to be so much more cheerful... and also in a good way..." Bobby says as she sighs looking at all the makeshift tents that aligned the walls. "Do you... do you think everyone else is okay up there, or should we find a way to get them down here?" asked Bobby looking over at her friend "we... we need to find a way to get them down here too... they're probably terrified up there... at least down here they'll have some food and shelter..." Hoppy said as they looked up at a pipe that was dripping with blue dough. "Doey?" asked Hoppy looking at the doughman who walks over with a friendly smile "is there a way that we can bring our other friends down here?" asked Bobby holding her hands together almost in a pleading way. Doey frowns "I...I don't know you two... this place may not be big enough for everyone... and with how many toys are still out there awaiting rescue..." Doey looked upset "if you can find a way of getting them down here... then... they can stay" Doey decides with a sigh, Hoppy and Bobby nod "okay, thank you Doey... but, are you able to help us at all?" Hoppy looked at him hopeful that he might help. "I can't... I'm needed here to help run Safe Haven... especially after Poppy... left us to fend for ourselves..." the two Smiling Critters could tell that Doey was exhausted but he still held himself together... for the sake of others. "Right, it's okay we will get them..." Hoppy reassured Doey by taking his hand and patting the top gently. "We will definitely be back... or... Hoppy can stay here and help you while I get the others" Bobby said with her eyes lighting up a bit "huh? No, Bobby we need to stick together and-" "Hoppy listen, you're fast, and you'll be able to know when danger is near, you're a big help to these guys, and I think they'll need you more down here than they'll need you up there..." Bobby said taking her friend's hand in her own and intertwining their fingers "please... you're better suited helping Doey out here then you are with me, I'll make sure to bring our friends down here quickly, I promise..." Bobby smiles at her friend one last time before her fingers slip out and she exits Safe Haven... little did she know that this would be the last time she may ever see her friend Hoppy again...
