After Michelle reached the top of the stairs, she looked through the opening and saw train tracks.
Michelle looked around before jumping down and standing on the tracks. "Are these tracks for the train, too? Or were they used for different types of transportation?" she asked herself before walking forward.
Michelle looked through the gated opening and spotted two input sockets, which made her hum. "It seems like there are two green power sockets around here somewhere..." she said.
As Michelle walked away from the gated opening, she spotted an opening with orange light in the distance, which made her follow the train tracks.
When Michelle was close to the opening, she saw wooden barricades in the distance. "I need something heavy to break those barricades," she said before looking at the hallway on the left and approaching it.
Soon after, Michelle stood before a gate with a lever on the other side, which made her hum, puzzled. "How can I get to that lever?" she asked herself before looking around. "I don't see any small crevices or busted openings anywhere."
Michelle heard alarms go off, which made her flinch and look forward; a shutter on the other side opened, revealing a familiar tall figure in the shadows. Michelle stared at the figure, confused. "Huggy?" she asked. "What are you doing here? And where is Bunzo?"
The figure walked forward until they stood in the light, revealing a larger toy similar to Huggy Wuggy but with pink fur and eyelashes. Michelle stared at the toy with widened eyes as the alarms stopped. "Kissy Missy..." she said in a low voice.
Kissy Missy stared at Michelle before looking at the lever beside her. Kissy Missy lifted her hand to the lever and tried pulling it, but it slipped off.
Kissy Missy placed her hand on the lever again before pulling it, which started lifting the gate. As Kissy Missy turned away, she glanced at the shocked Michelle and the Mini Huggies holding her before looking forward and walking away.
Michelle got out of her trance and looked at Kissy Missy as she turned left. "Hey, wait!" she shouted before crouching and going through the opening.
Michelle quickly got up and sprinted forward. "I need to talk to you about—" she cut herself off when she turned left and noticed Kissy Missy was gone.
Michelle sighed and looked down. "Damn it... I was hoping I could convince her to come with me since I got Huggy too," she said.
The Mini Huggies let off soft purrs, which made Michelle look at them before smiling a bit. "Thanks for that..." she continued before looking forward. "Maybe I'll get to see her again."
Michelle walked forward. "And I'm definitely telling the boys this; I bet Huggy would be excited to know I saw her," she said.
Soon after, Michelle spotted a green power socket. "There's one of the power sockets..." she said in a low voice before walking forward.
When Michelle looked at the train tracks, she spotted a turquoise cart with googly eyes, painted yellow text that said 'Barry' on it, and a yellow handle under it.
Michelle hummed a bit and grabbed the arm cannons' handles. "That can help me break the barricade," she continued before aiming the left arm cannon at the cart's handle and pulling the trigger.
The blue hand shot forward and grabbed the cart's handle before Michelle stepped back, which pulled the cart with her.
When Michelle was near the gate, she pulled the trigger, which made the blue hand retract back to her before she aimed the right arm cannon at the green power outlet and pulled the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and touched the outlet, which powered it up before it retracted back to Michelle. "I gotta do this fast," she said.
Michelle quickly approached the green input socket and aimed the right arm cannon at it before pulling the trigger. The green hand shot forward and touched the green input socket, opening the gate on Michelle's right side before quickly going through it.
Michelle aimed the right arm cannon at the green input socket and pulled the right trigger, launching the green hand and taking the electricity inside it.
The green hand retracted back to Michelle as the gate closed before she aimed the right hand cannon at the green input socket in front of her and pulled the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and touched the green input socket, opening the gate on Michelle's right side before quickly going through it; after it closed behind her, she turned left before sprinting forward.
When Michelle stood near the train tracks, she spotted a lever on her left side before aiming the left arm cannon at it and pulling the trigger. The blue hand shot forward and grabbed the lever before pulling it down, lifting the gate in front of the cart.
Michelle retracted the blue hand back to her. "That's one gate open," she said before aiming the right arm cannon at the cart's handle and pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and grabbed the cart's handle before Michelle pulled it toward the closed gate. Michelle pulled the trigger, retracting the green hand back to her before she sprinted toward the back.
When Michelle was near the green power socket, she aimed the right arm cannon at it before pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and touched the green power socket, which powered it up before Michelle retracted it back to her. Michelle sprinted forward and turned left before aiming at the green input socket and pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and touched the green input socket, opening the gate; Michelle went through the opening before aiming the right arm cannon at it and pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and took the electricity from the green input socket; it retracted back to Michelle as the gate closed before she quickly turned right.
Michelle spotted a green input socket near the gate before aiming the right arm cannon at it and pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and touched the green input socket, making Michelle sprint through it before it closed. Michelle stared at the gate while trying to catch her breath. "That was cutting it really close..." she said in a low voice.
Ivy turned their head to the back and spotted something before letting out a chirp, which made Michelle glance at them. "What is it?" she asked.
When Michelle turned around, she saw a small room with a blue VHS tape on the ground, a long metal pipe lying next to it, a TV in the upper right corner, a stand with a blue VHS player on it, a green input socket on the left wall, and a green power socket covered by a gate.
Michelle smiled and let go of the arm cannons' handles before petting Ivy's head with her left index finger. "Nice find, Ivy," she said, which made the said Mini Huggy purr.
Michelle approached the tape and picked it up before examining it. "What do you have to show me?" she asked before approaching the player and putting it inside.
Michelle looked at the screen as it booted up, which revealed a Playtime Co. employee with brown hair and a beard sitting down.
As the employee made adjustments to his tag, Michelle heard footsteps in the background. "You mind if I film this?" the man behind the camera asked.
Michelle froze a bit at the voice. "Leith Pierre..." she said in a low voice, which made the Mini Huggies growl.
The employee looked forward. "Oh, not at all, sir," he said.
"That's what I like to hear," Leith said. "So, Marcas, what happened?"
Marcas looked at Leith in the background. "You see, I was heading home for the day when my ape arse realized that I left me bloody wallet in the cafeteria," he said. "So, I'm running through the lobby... and that's when I see it: a mop handle lodged under the innovation wing gate!"
Michelle was concerned. "So what'd you do, Marcas?" Leith asked.
Marcas looked at Leith. "Well, I just thought I'd nab the bloody yoke and be on my merry way," he said.
"And?" Leith asked.
Marcas was scared. "Well, I'm reaching for the thing, and the mop handle jolts on its own!" he shouted a bit. "Had me scared stiff; I-I thought I was the only one there."
Michelle crossed her arms. "So... I-I took a peek beneath the gate, and some massive bloody thing was dootering about the bloody hallway!" Marcas shouted.
"Thing? You're sure it wasn't a person?" Leith asked.
Marcas was baffled. "Ain't no person that's fifty feet long with a thousand legs!" he shouted.
"Marcas, you're losing me," Leith said. "Maybe you just saw a bunch of people walking by."
Marcas looked at Leith. "Look, it wasn't people!" he shouted. "Alright? I haven't a bloody notion what it was, but it wasn't human."
Michelle heard Leith hum in the background. "Who have you told about this?" he asked. "Besides me, obviously."
Marcas looked at Leith. "Just you, sir, obviously," he said.
"OK... I'll have security skim the cameras and take a look," Leith said.
Marcas was shocked. "What?! There's a massive bloody... monster! Skimming ain't going to get rid of it!" he shouted.
"You're out of line, Marcas; we make toys, not monsters," Leith said.
Michelle glared at the TV as the Mini Huggies snarled. "What I saw says otherwise, asshole," she said.
"Now c'mon, get out of my sight," Leith said.
As Marcas stood up, Leith stopped him. "Actually, uh... get me a coffee, will ya'?" he asked before thinking. "Actually, nevermind, get out of my sight."
After the video ended, Michelle was angry. "Ugh, the nerve of that guy!" she shouted. "I don't care what rank he has; he's a fucking dick!!"
Michelle glanced at the pipe on the ground before picking it up with both hands and swinging it against the screen, shattering it in the process.
The Mini Huggies looked at Michelle, shocked, as she raised the pipe before she kept hitting the broken TV. "Fuck... you... you fucking... piece of... shit!!" she shouted in between hits.
After Michelle stopped swinging the pipe, she tried to catch her breath before letting go of it, which made it hit the ground. The Mini Huggies looked at Michelle with concerned chirps, which made her look at them.
Michelle sighed and stepped away from the glass shards before sitting down. "Sorry if I scared you, little ones..." she said. "Sometimes, my anger gets the better of me."
The Mini Huggies looked at Michelle as she weakly chuckled. "That anger alone... was why I always wound up back at the orphanage," she continued. "I don't know if it's because of jealousy that I'm not their full-blooded kid or if I'm angry at the world itself, but..."
Tears pricked Michelle's eyes before she looked down. "Sometimes I wish I didn't exist... so that life could go on smoothly," she said in a low voice.
The Mini Huggies frowned before letting out soothing, soft purrs, which made Michelle look at them.
Soon after, Michelle gently smiled at the Mini Huggies. "Thank you..." she said before standing up and stretching her arms and legs a bit. "And I really needed that out of my system; sometimes it's good to let out your anger by smashing things."
Michelle turned to the opening and grabbed the arm cannons' handles. "Alright, let's get that cart to that barricade," she continued before walking forward.
When Michelle stood near the train tracks, she saw a lever near the closed gate before aiming the left arm cannon at it and pulling the trigger. The blue hand shot forward and grabbed the lever before pulling it, lifting the gate in front of the cart.
After Michelle retracted the blue hand, she aimed the right arm cannon at the cart's handle before pulling the trigger. The green hand shot forward and grabbed the cart's handle before Michelle pulled it, making it move in the process.
When Michelle was close to the closed gate, she pulled the trigger, making the green hand retract back to her before looking at the green input sockets. "This calls for both power sockets," she said before sprinting to the back.
When Michelle was close to the green power socket, she aimed the right arm cannon at it before pulling the trigger. The green hand shot forward and touched the green power socket, which powered it up.
After Michelle retracted the green hand back to her, she sprinted toward the small area before aiming the right arm cannon at the green input socket and pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and touched the input socket, which opened the gate in front of the green power socket.
Michelle retracted the green hand before aiming the right arm cannon at the green power socket. "I have to do this super quick," she said before pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and touched the green power socket, which powered it up before Michelle retracted it back to her. Michelle stepped out of the small room and aimed the right arm cannon at the green input socket in her sight before pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and touched the input socket, powering it up; after Michelle retracted it back to her, she aimed the right arm cannon at the green input socket inside the small room before pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and took the electricity from the green power socket before Michelle retracted it back to her. Michelle stepped back until she saw the other green input socket before aiming the right arm cannon at it and pulling the trigger.
The green hand shot forward and touched the input socket, powering it up and opening the gate, which made Michelle sprint through it.
Michelle stood before the cart and aimed the left arm cannon at the handle before pulling the trigger, launching the blue hand and grabbing it. Michelle walked backward with a grunt, pulling the cart in the process. "C'mon, c'mon," she said.
Eventually, Michelle managed to pull the cart before the gate closed, which made her smile. "Sweet!" she shouted before pulling the trigger, retracting the blue hand back to her.
The Mini Huggies let out happy chirps as the cart turned toward the opening. Michelle approached the front of the cart before aiming the left arm cannon at the handle and pulling the left trigger.
The blue hand shot forward and grabbed the cart's handle. "Now if things go right, momentum will do the rest," Michelle said before walking backward, pulling the cart in the process.
After Michelle went through the opening, she stepped to the side before pulling the trigger, retracting the blue hand back to her.
The cart started going down the slope and destroyed the barricade, which made Michelle smile and pump her fist, while the Mini Huggies happily chirped. "Awesome!" she shouted.
Soon after, Michelle saw the cart fall into the pit, which made her slightly nervous. "If that cart was a toy, I really hope I didn't kill them by accident," she said before going down the slope.
When Michelle reached the bottom, she spotted an opening on the right before going through it.
Michelle entered the room and spotted a hole near black cables before approaching it; when she was near it, she looked down and saw familiar tiles. "Those look like the Game Station's floor tiles," she said before jumping down.
Michelle landed on the ground before standing up properly and looking at the stairs. "Time to beat this challenge once and for all," she continued before approaching them.
