"Rev... what is this?" >Rev has his head cast down and doesn't respond to you. >You look closer at the wooden sign. >"THE GRAVEYARD" >Suddenly, you hear some shuffling coming from the entrance of the graveyard. >Stepping away from the sign and from the entrance, you look to see who it is. >It has a human skull and a black cloak covering its entire skeletal body. >On its left hand, it has a piece of white paper with some handwriting on it. >On its right hand, it has a scythe slightly taller than itself. >The scythe has a metal handle and a metal blade that has a giant eye on the center of the blade. >You recognize this being as the Undertaker... >Trembling in fear, you keep backing away from this being until you are besides Rev. "R-Rev... w-what's going on...?" >The Undertaker looks at Rev, then looks at the paper, and back at Rev. >"Is this her?" it said. >Rev slowly nods, "... It's her." >Rev isn't... giving you away to it? >No... >You run in front of Rev, put your hooves on his chest, and look at him. "Wait! Why are you doing this, Rev? Why am I... going with that?" >Rev puts his hands on your hooves and gently puts you on the ground. >"I'm sorry, Pine..." he said. >Rev slowly turns around and walks away from you and the Undertaker. >You start to cry... >Why is Rev leaving you? >You two just started... "Rev... please! We can keep going! You had a great start! Just... just why..."   >Rev, still having his head cast down, keeps walking until he is out of your vision because of the fog. >Undertaker shuffles to you until it is next to you. >"Let's go, Pine." it says. >You continue to stay on your ground and cry, waiting for Rev to come back to you. >... Rev will come back for you... right? >... >Suddenly, you hear a set of running footsteps coming from the fog. >Along with the footsteps, you hear two sets of... hoofsteps. >"Wait!" >You and the Undertaker look up to see who it is. >It is another human, a female, with a nametag that says "Inept." >Daring Do and "Dandy" run up to her sides. >Inept then walks up to the Undertaker and gives it a stern look. >"I'll take her." >The Undertaker raises its skeletal eyebrow at Inept, looks at you, and back at Inept. >"You sure? You already have those two over there." >Inept nods, "I'm very sure. She's too good to give up now." >Undertaker looks at her for a few seconds until it simply shrugs. >"Alright then." >After the Undertaker shuffles back into the graveyard, Inept kneels down to look at you, and smiles. >"Hey Pine," she said, "I'll be taking care of you from now on, okay?" >You widen your eyes after hearing that. >Hearing that only made you cry harder... >You quickly rub your forelegs around her and cry on her shoulder. >You thank her so many times that you lost count. >Inept hugs you back and rubs her hands on your back, trying to calm you down. >"It's alright..." she said. >... >After the embrace, Inept said she will bring you to her place and get you settled there. >You simply nod in response and you, Ms. Do, and Dandy walk together with Inept. >Having a question in mind, you run up to Inept's side and look at her. "Do you think... Rev will like this?" >Inept looks at you and smiles, "I'm sure he would. You're his friend, and I'm also sure he would be watching you while you and I work together." "Okay..." >Would Rev keep watching you? He did leave you to the Undertaker... >...   >In the distance, Rev has his hands in his pockets and watches the four of you walk together. >He sighs after seeing you go to a different partner. >After he loses sight of the four of you, Rev walks back on the trail and goes back to the Undertaker's Graveyard. >...
