A/N: Hey! New chapter! Sorry that it came out a little (A lot) later than I would have liked. Oh! Also "MayumiWorld" pointed out a spelling mistake that I made in the first chapter so thanks for that :) Anyways here is the story:

Chapter 4: Friend Or Foe? Pt. 2

As the footsteps were getting closer and closer, Gooey looked like he was hyperventilating, and Susie… was somehow calm and seemed to be waiting impatiently. "Susie how can you be so calm!" Gooey asked in a confused and scared whisper. "Don't worry I have a plan" Susie replied a bit too calmly. The two heard the footsteps getting closer now, then a bush very near them started to shake. Susie then took out a remote with plenty of buttons, and one big blue button at the top, she pressed a red button on the remote to activate her "Business suit" which was what she called her robot armor. As soon as the Business suit was open Susie jumped into it a yellow visor covered her face.

The two soldiers could only look in confusion and slight horror. They were expecting a simple 'locate and return' mission, not a robot that looked like it was ready to take on the biggest tank out there. Susie then performed a spin cycle, spinning the arms on her Business Suit knocking the two soldiers a surprisingly far distance. Gooey could only stare with wide eyes. How did the Business Suit send them that far? Even the waddle dees weren't sent that far! Gooey realized that Susie was also surprised by this considering her reaction after she put her Business Suit back.

How weak were these people?

Adeleine woke up cold, in pain, and… wet? When she finally mustered up the strength to get up, she realized that she was in the river, and the only reason she wasn't swept away was because she got caught on some rocks. Adeleine immediately tried to look for Ribbon, Kirby, Gooey, Susie, or literally anyone else who could help them. Unfortunately, trying to swim against a current wasn't the best experience in the world, but Adeleine has no other choice. If she went with the flow then she might end up further away from her friends. Simply getting out of the river was pretty challenging as well, considering she had landed in a part of the river where the river seemed to have eroded the land making this part of the river lower than ground level.

After a solid 30 minutes of wading and swimming through the river, Adeleine finally found a ledge low enough to grab onto, and climb up on. Once Adeleine got to the top of the small gorge she realized that she was on the desert side of the river, which would make finding her friends, and surviving, a million times harder.

Adeleine looked around the desert, thinking there would be plenty of people and animals, but quickly realized that this desert was nothing like the surprisingly populated desert of Raisin Ruins. This desert was barren, with the only life seen was the occasional cactus. Without much of a choice, Adeleine followed the river to find her friends.

Somewhere in the forest Ribbon woke up… stuck in the branches of a tree...

It wasn't her proudest moment, in fact it was probably her most embarrassing moment, being stuck in a tree like a kite.

Unable to get her wings, left arm, and left leg free from the tree, she decided to look around to see if any of her friends were there. Upon looking around Ribbon realized how much danger she was in. The branch she was stuck on was hanging over a gorge, that housed a very fast part of the river, if the branch were to fall she would die immediately, and even if she didn't she would drown.

Panicking, Ribbon desperately tried to get free but only managed to crack the branch. By now Ribbon was paralyzed with fear, that was until she heard a familiar voice yell "Are you ok!?"

"Sir… all of team B was found dead. The team had split up, the bigger group being found on a hill with the smaller group found in the desert, in a crater."

"Great. Just GREAT"

A/N: AHHHHHHH FINALLY! The new chapter is complete. So yea this chapter came out really late (for my standards). So… I don't really have a 'writing schedule' or something along those lines so don't expect these story updates to happen consistently. Ok bye thanks for reading.
