The group then ran up the staircase and through the trapdoor. Suddenly, Fomo Burger looked up, only to see Wise Burger was gone. "How did he escape?" Cool Burger thought to himself. Without hesitation, Rockstar Taco ran up the staircase and outside the building. Whilst they had all been down there, the sun had set and it had become night. The streets looked empty but she was not convinced. Rockstar Taco then turned the corner and to her surprise, she found Sweet Burger. "Not you again!" Rockstar Taco said in frustration. "I've been training, it's time to take you on" Sweet Burger said with a serious expression.
Meanwhile, Fomo Burger, Cool Burger and Nervous Burger ran out of the building shortly after. "Where could he have gone?" asked Fomo Burger. Before anyone could respond, the three burgers noticed that there was somebody at the end of the street. "Is that Wise Burger?" Fomo Burger questioned. "No, it's Chicken Burger" Cool Burger replied. Chicken Burger stood in a calm stance, spinning a knife on his fingertip. "Who's Chicken Burger?" Nervous Burger asked. "Don't worry about it, just stay close" Fomo Burger ordered. Cool Burger slowly started to approach Chicken Burger by beginning to walk down the street. The moonlight reflected off of Chicken Burger's knife as he began to put it away in his pocket. "No, pull the knife back out" Cool Burger demanded. Chicken Burger had a confused facial expression and took a step back. "What? What's the matter with you?" Chicken Burger said whilst still puzzled. "I know who you are, you fight dirty and unfair, get your knife back out" Cool Burger explained. "I… what…" Chicken Burger said not being able to put a sentence together. Suddenly, in a flash, Cool Burger dashed forward and took the knife out of Chicken Burger's pocket. He then tightly gripped the wrist of Chicken Burger and stabbed the knife through his hand. "Come on man, that's not how you hold a knife" Cool Burger said with a big grin on his face.
"Awesome…" Nervous Burger mumbled. Fomo Burger realising he had been left out again, began to think. "What can I do to help people?" he thought to himself.
4 years ago
The school bell rang. A group of sliders quickly got out their chairs and ran out the classroom. It was Burgersville High School, and Fomo Burger had just completed his first day of it. With a lack of energy, he left the classroom upset. Fomo Burger had been struggling with bullying at school. As he started to walk down the school's hallway, dragging his feet on the floor, one of his bullies approached him and punched him in the stomach out of nowhere. Fomo Burger had always struggled with impact to his stomach. "Look at this loser! Can't even take one punch!" the bully shouted out as he walked away. Fomo Burger then began to cry. "Hey listen, don't cry, it shows weakness" said a voice next to him. Fomo Burger looked up only to see Cool Burger crouched down next to him. "Who are you? Please don't hurt me!" Fomo Burger cried out. "Relax, listen, start to hang out with me and I'll protect you" Cool Burger explained "Come start working out with me and I'll show you the ropes". Fomo Burger nodded as Cool Burger helped him stand up. That was the day that Fomo Burger and Cool Burger became friends.
Present day
He scanned the area and observed his surroundings. He did it, he found out where Wise Burger went. "Nervous Burger, listen to me, i'm going to run all the way over there" Fomo Burger said as he pointed down an empty street "I need you to go over to Cool Burger and stay close with him, I'll be back". Nervous Burger put on a face of fear and stumbled over to where Cool Burger and Chicken Burger were. Fomo Burger then made a run for it.
He had connected the dots. Sweet Burger was missing the bag she usually wore that contained the amulet shards. He then realised if Wise Burger had escaped outside and ran away they would have bumped into Chicken Burger and Sweet Burger. Therefore, Sweet Burger would have given the bag containing the shards to Wise Burger during his escape. Fomo Burger then had to think about which direction Wise Burger had run off in. He then realised that a part of mold had fallen off Wise Burger's face on one of the streets. This gave Fomo Burger all the information he needed. Fomo Burger was going to do it, he was not going to be useless.
He kept running down the street. "I'm going to catch Wise Burger, if it's the last thing I do!" he thought to himself. Suddenly, Wise Burger appeared out of an alleyway on the side of the street, and punched Fomo Burger in the stomach. Fomo Burger then dropped to the floor, and attempted to control his breathing. Through his blurred vision, he could see Wise Burger pull out multiple syringes filled with black smoke. "I'm going to lose, i'm going to die!" Fomo Burger thought to himself.
Wise Burger raised up the syringes and got ready to stab them into Fomo Burger. "Goodbye, you stupid burger!" Wise Burger yelled out as he began to slam the syringes down into Fomo Burger. Suddenly, because of all the bullying he endured in school, Fomo Burger managed to tolerate the stomach pain and snatched the syringes out of Wise Burger's hands.
