In one of the play areas, Huggy Wuggy stood before a drawing hanging on a post. Huggy Wuggy stared at the drawing of him and Kissy Missy holding one another and a heart above their heads with a low whimper.
Huggy Wuggy heard creaking, which surprised him, and he turned to the back. "Misha..." he said, lowly, before sprinting forward. Michelle walked up the steps while holding Bunzo Bunny's hand. "Hello? Huggy, are you there?" she asked.
As the duo reached the top, they saw Huggy Wuggy stop in the center. Huggy Wuggy turned his head toward the duo, which made Bunzo Bunny flinch and hide behind Michelle. "Misha..." he said, lowly, before walking toward them.
Michelle smiled. "Hi, buddy," she said. "Some things happened, but more importantly, I got part of the train code." Huggy Wuggy smiled as he petted Michelle's head. "Good... job..." he said, lowly.
Michelle smiled. "Thanks..." she said before remembering something. "Ah! There's another important thing that happened." Huggy Wuggy tilted his head as Michelle turned her head to the back. "It's OK... he's not gonna hurt you..." she continued.
Bunzo Bunny poked his head out a bit before standing beside Michelle. "We got ourselves a new friend," she said. Huggy Wuggy lowered his head to Bunzo Bunny's, which made him nervous. Huggy Wuggy raised his hand, which made Bunzo Bunny flinch and close his eyes.
Soon after, Huggy Wuggy placed his hand on Bunzo Bunny's head, which surprised him and made him open his eyes. When Bunzo Bunny looked at Huggy Wuggy, he smiled as he petted his head. "Friend..." he said, lowly. Bunzo Bunny smiled and nodded. "Friend," he said.
Michelle smiled at the interaction before glancing at the panel. "Why don't you two get acquainted? I'll head to the panel," she said before walking toward it.
When Michelle reached the panel, she grabbed the lever in the middle and pulled it down. The speakers turned on and started playing music, "Ooh! You did fantastic! Who gave you permission to be this smart?" Stella asked rhetorically before giggling.
The path to Whack-A-Wuggy started opening up, which made Michelle look at it. "Mommy is super proud of you, but I'm sure she's already told you that herself," Stella continued. "Our next game is Whack-A-Wuggy; head downstairs and have fun!"
When Michelle reached the center, she looked at the Whack-A-Wuggy frame before chuckling. "Something wrong, Big Sis?" she turned to the back and saw Huggy Wuggy approaching her with Bunzo Bunny on his shoulders.
Michelle smiled a bit and looked at the stairs. "Oh, I'm just going down memory lane..." she said. "My friend Kevin would always challenge me to a game of Whack-A-Wuggy every time we came to the Game Station."
Michelle laughed a bit. "And every time he challenges me, I beat him all the time," she said. "But usually, I offered him to play Statues with me afterward, and he was far better at it than me." Bunzo Bunny tilted his head. "You're a Playtime Co. orphan?" he asked.
Michelle looked at Bunzo Bunny. "Yes and no," she said. "I am an orphan, but I come from a different orphanage. They allowed my orphanage to come to Playtime Co. once a week if we did our chores and kept up with schoolwork."
Bunzo Bunny frowned a bit. "That's pretty sad..." he said, which made Huggy Wuggy nod in agreement. Michelle smiled. "Well, there's an old saying: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger," she said.
Michelle remembered something before looking at Huggy Wuggy. "Hey, Huggy," she continued, which made him look at her.
Michelle gestured with her hand down, which made Huggy Wuggy nod before getting on his knees. "Thanks, buddy," she said before approaching him.
When Michelle was close to her bag, she unzipped part of it and stuck her hand inside. "The cookies helped a lot, so I want to grab another one," she continued before pulling out a bag of cookies.
After Michelle hung the bag of cookies on one of her GrabPack's hooks, she zipped her bag and looked at the duo. "I'm gonna head to Whack-A-Wuggy right now," she said. "Both of you keep yourselves safe."
Huggy Wuggy nodded as he stood up while Bunzo Bunny smiled and waved. "See you soon, Big Sis!" he shouted. Michelle smiled and waved before heading down the stairs. When Michelle reached the bottom of the stairs, she walked through the hallway.
As Michelle looked around, she saw multiple different-colored mini versions of Huggy Wuggy murals. "I wonder if some of the Mini Huggies remember me?" she asked herself. Soon after, Michelle entered a sandpit with multiple holes in the walls.
As Michelle looked around, a TV turned on, which made her look at it. "Welcome to Whack-A-Wuggy," the man on the TV said. "This advanced test is designed to assess the extent of your reactionary abilities."
Soon after, the TV showed a yellow model with a GrabPack slowly placed on their shoulders. "A dual-palmed GrabPack will be provided to you for this test," the man on the TV continued before showing a hole. "Around you are eighteen sizeable holes."
Soon after, a Mini Huggy appeared in the hole on TV. "An adorable Huggy Wuggy toy could appear out of any one of these holes," the man on the TV said.
The TV then showed an example video of a Mini Huggy jumping on a person. "If one comes out, hit it with your GrabPack," the man on the TV continued before displaying a text reading 'Good Luck!'. "That's all; good luck!"
After the screen had turned off, Mommy Long Legs entered the observation room. "The toys in this game used to have strings attached to them, so they could be pulled back when they got too close to the children," she said.
Michelle looked at Mommy Long Legs. "Unfortunately, the strings on them frayed and broke," she continued. Mommy Long Legs smiled at Michelle. "But don't worry, my little Misha..." she said. "Unlike the guard dog with you, these toys don't have fangs to bite..."
Michelle sweatdropped. I don't know if that's supposed to keep me calm or a jab at Huggy when he's not here, she thought. Mommy Long Legs giggled a bit. "Have fun..." she said before stepping away.
Michelle heard scuttling in the tunnels, which made her look around. "If I remember correctly, this game only lasts two minutes," she said. "Kevin... if you're watching me... please give me strength..."
Soon after, Michelle spotted a blue Mini Huggy appear in a hole in front of her before pulling the left trigger. The blue hand hit the Mini Huggy, which caused it to reenter the hole. "Not on my watch," she said.
Soon after, Michelle saw a red Mini Huggy appear in a different hole. Michelle pulled the right trigger, launching the green hand and hitting the red Mini Huggy, which made it reenter the hole.
A few Mini Huggies appeared in different holes, which made Michelle push them back with the GrabPack's hands. As time passed, the Mini Huggies became faster.
Michelle looked around with gritted teeth as she pushed them away with the GrabPack's hands. "I gotta be close to two minutes, right?" she asked herself. Unbeknownst to Michelle, a purple Mini Huggy emerged from the hole and launched toward her.
Michelle looked at the purple Mini Huggy, shocked, before stepping away. However, the purple Mini Huggy grabbed the bag of cookies from Michelle's GrabPack and tore the top part off, which surprised her. "Oh no, my luck charm," she said.
Soon after, some of the cookies spilled out and landed on the sand. The purple Mini Huggy looked at the cookies before picking one up and placing it in its mouth.
As the purple Mini Huggy sucked on the cookie, it flinched and spat out something in its mouth. "Oh, they got sand on them," Michelle said before approaching it.
The purple Mini Huggy stared at Michelle as she knelt and picked the bag up. "Luckily, there are a few still in the bag," she continued before grabbing a clean cookie out of it and holding it out. "If you trade with me, I can wipe as much sand off of it as I can."
The purple Mini Huggy stared at the cookie in Michelle's hand before placing the sand-covered cookie on her wrist and grabbing the clean one.
Michelle smiled as she dusted the dirty cookie while the purple Mini Huggy started sucking on it. Soon after, the purple Mini Huggy smiled with a high-pitched purr.
After Michelle finished dusting the cookies, she felt a small hand on her leg, which made her look down. A yellow Mini Huggy held out a cookie to Michelle. "Is that dirty as well?" she asked.
The yellow Mini Huggy nodded, which made Michelle smile. "No worries; I'll dust it off for you," she said before holding the cookie in her hand out to it. "Try this one; I dusted it as best as I can."
The yellow Mini Huggy swapped the cookies before placing the one it held in its mouth. Soon after, the yellow Mini Huggy let out happy chirps, which made Michelle smile. "I'm glad you like it," she said as she dusted the cookie.
A few of the Mini Huggies rummaged through the bag before sucking their cookies in joy Michelle held the one in her hand out to an orange Mini Huggy, which made it take it and started sucking on it with high-pitched purrs.
A happy chime played in the speakers, which made Michelle look up. "While Mommy wasn't expecting that... outcome, you did it, my little Misha," Mommy Long Legs said. "Mommy is so proud of you."
Mommy Long Legs put her hand inside the hole. "Here, Mommy has a new hint for you," she continued. Michelle heard a vent open, which made her look at it. Soon after, Michelle saw Mommy Long Legs's hand holding out the second part of the code.
Michelle stood up and dusted herself before approaching Mommy Long Legs's hand. Soon after, Michelle grabbed the code, which made Mommy Long Legs retract her hand. "Only one game left to play..." she said.
Mommy Long Legs whined a bit. "Sad... Mommy was hoping my little Misha would stay with me forever..." she continued.
Unbeknownst to Michelle, Mommy Long Legs's smile was sinister. "Though it's never too late to change your mind..." she said before giggling and walking away.
Michelle looked at the observation room, concerned, before kneeling to the Mini Huggies. "I'd keep your distance if I were you, little ones," she said. "It sounds like... she's not in a good mood." Most of the Mini Huggies were scared before running away.
The vent door opened, which made Michelle look at it and stand properly before dusting the sand off. "Alright, then. I should—" a small hand touched her leg, which surprised her.
When Michelle looked down, she saw that a few of the Mini Huggies were still there: a red one, an orange one, a yellow one, a green one, and a purple one.
Michelle tilted her head, "Do you guys... wanna come with me?" she asked. Soon after, the Mini Huggies started climbing on Michelle, which shocked her. "Woah! Hey!" she shouted.
When the Mini Huggies secured themselves on Michelle, they let out high-pitched purrs, which made her sigh. "I guess you guys are coming along for the ride..." she said before walking toward the vent. "At least there aren't eighteen of you following me..."
Michelle held the second code part out, which revealed a color pattern: red, yellow, red, blue. "The first one showed me what I assume are the icons inside the train, while this shows me what color they should be," she said. "All I'm missing now is what goes where."
After Michelle put the second code piece in her pocket, she crawled into the space before standing properly. "Let's hope the boys are doing alright," she continued before going down the steps.
As Michelle walked down the pathway, she entered a room with broken stairs, which slightly annoyed her. "Well, that's just great..." she said, lowly. "How am I supposed to get to them with a broken staircase?"
The purple Mini Huggy tapped Michelle's shoulder, making her glance at it. "What is it?" she asked. The purple Mini Huggy pointed up, which made Michelle look up.
Soon after, Michelle saw a handle on the roof. "Oh... yeah, that would definitely work," she said before climbing the railing and pulling the left trigger.
The blue hand grabbed the handle before Michelle pulled herself up. When Michelle reached the top, she swung herself to a ledge and let go. "Now we can keep going," she said before walking forward.
As Michelle entered a hallway, she heard screeching, which concerned her. "I hope those other Mini Huggies got out of there safely," she said.
The Mini Huggies were shaking, which made Michelle look at them. "Hey, hey, it's alright," she continued. "As long as you guys are with me, no one is touching you... not even Mommy."
The Mini Huggies looked at Michelle before letting out soft purrs, which made her smile. "Speaking of being with me, I need to give you guys names," she said. "It'll feel awkward just calling you Huggy when I already have a bigger version of you guys."
Michelle hummed a bit. "What should I call you guys?" she asked herself before thinking of something. "Since this company became popular because of the Poppy Playtime doll, you guys should be named after a certain plant."
Michelle looked at the red Mini Huggy wrapped around her upper left arm. "Since your fur is vibrant red, I'd say Rose would be a perfect name for you," she said.
Michelle looked at the orange Mini Huggy wrapped around her upper right arm. "For you... I think Tulip would be a fitting name," she continued.
Michelle looked at the yellow Mini Huggy wrapped around her left shoulder. "For you, it's an obvious one: Sunflower, or Sunny for short," she said.
Michelle looked at the green Mini Huggy on her right shoulder. "You're a tough one, but... I think Ivy would be a good name," she continued.
Michelle looked at the purple Mini Huggy, which gently wrapped its arms around her neck. "And last but not least, you..." she said before thinking. "How does Lilac sound?"
Lilac rubbed their head against Michelle's cheek with a purr, which led the others to purr, too, and made her smile. "I guess you like the new names," she continued before approaching the stairs. "Let's get out of this room, then."
