“PLEASE SHRUB WHY DON'T YOU REMEMBER!”. Blue and Shrub had been in a screaming match for the last five minutes after Blue refused to leave Shrub alone. “FOR VOIDSAKE LEAVE ME ALONE BLUE” Shrub pushed Blue away making her fall to the floor losing her last 2 hearts.

As Blue respawned in her small wooden house she was sad. So incredibly sad. She had lost her very best friend and she has no idea where her wife is! How couldn't she be sad? Blue had tried so very hard to make Shrub remember but nothing worked. What had Blue done to deserve this? Was this The Elders finally punishing her for all her sins. Have The Elders found her? Blue looks around her small wooden house in some way looking for a sign that The Elders have found her. Nothing. Blue let out a breath that she didn't even know she was holding in.

Blue ran to Shrub's house in a hurry
“SHRUBB PLEASE LET ME IN” Blue shouted as she pounded on the wooden door
Blue heard Shrub sigh from behind the door “Blue I'm sorry I pushed you but please leave me alone”
“please shrub please” Blue’s cries began dying down as Blue slid down Shrubs front door sobbing. “Shrubb pleasee” Blue hiccuped between her sobs as it slowly began raining.

It had been a normal day for Wumster. He had been slowly building his new house. He liked this new world. Wumster liked that he was nice and close to his friends which reduced the amount he had to use the waypoints. He liked the peace so far. He knew the chaos would be starting soon but it was nice. He was happy Banana placed him here.

He knew something had changed though. Blue was an almost empty shell of the bubbly girl she once was, and Shrub had lost all their memories. It was weird but he chose not to worry for now. His thoughts were quickly interrupted by Blue slamming the door open
“I have an idea about how we get Shrubs memories back!”
Blue said as she quickly began pacing around Wumster’s small starter house.
"What? How do you already have an idea? The server just started” Wumster was quite confused. Blue had just finished the small hut she had been calling home, how did she have time for this?
“No need to worry my dear friend, I have the best idea that has ever been an idea. What if we tell Shrub stories of Empires!”. Wumster did not see how this would help.
“Wait, how do you plan on doing this Blue?” Blue paused looking into Wumsters eyes.
“Okay so we go to Shrub's house, Tell the stories about Empires and Poof memories back!” Wumster was dumbfounded. Did Blue really think this was gonna work?
“Blue this is not gonna work”
Blue froze
“nonononono Wumster you dont understand this HAS to work I swear it's gonna work”
Blue’s fake smile quickly dropped as she began rambling to Wumster.
“I promise you Wumster this is gonna work an-and if you don't believe me i'm just gonna go do it myself!”
Wumster sighed, running his hands down his face as Blue ran out of his door.

It had been an hour since Blue ran out of Wumster’s home and it had started raining heavily. Wumster decided it would be a good idea to go out into the rain and get Blue home. So he grabbed his umbrella and went out into the cold spring rain. “Blue where are you?” he shouted as he walked through the forest. When he finally arrived at Shrub’s house he saw Blue’s small figure curled up in front of her bestfriends door. Wumster walked over to Blue and placed a hand on her shoulder “I see it didn't go as you expected” Blue began sobbing harder than she already was
“Of course it didn't. I'm so stupid how could i think that would work”
Wumster sat next to Blue as he began whispering
“Blue it's gonna be okay i promise you. It wasn't your fault”
Blue looked over to Wumster with tears in her eyes.
“You wanna go home?” He said as he sat up and handed the umbrella to her.
“Please” Blue says clearly struggling to get her words out.

Blue slept at Wumsters house that night. She needed a shoulder to cry on and Wumster was ready to comfort her.
