brainstorm out the possible plot points. See where each one would lead no matter how implausible. Keep going. If any of them intersect, try to combine them. Brainstorming is the only way I've found out of this problem. Other than of course choosing someone to reveal everything to and then get their feedback but don't do that unless that person is someone you can trust. Not just to keep a secret but someone who gives good enough feedback that you didn't waste your time.

oh there's also another way to get out of a block. You can start asking your characters questions and then answer in their voice. It sounds weird but you should at least try it and see what happens.

But, Other characters ARE still living there and I really haven't done a lot of development with them... Since most of them don't/won't really need it.. But then again.. I should just do it anyway just so I can proceed XD So, You've helped me greatly.

Great! I'm glad I could help. Don't forget the brain storming. Even it goes in a weird direction sometimes it can take your brain out of that weird place so that you can have fresh thoughts again. You see sometimes we get stuck in a certain way of thinking about our story or get stuck on certain expectations. It can really help to take the mind out of that place.
