Additional Note: From Part 4 onward, this is newly written. (1/11/21) (11/1/21)

Before you get to reading, just a quick little note. This may not be as long as the other parts of this story, but because of my situation with life at the moment (see this for more info: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9999268) i've not been fully in the headspace to write, but i'm trying to get back into that headspace, so please excuse me if this is all over the place, i do apologies...

Auora laid there in hospital, unable to move a limb due how much she was torn up. I mean, who could blame her at this point, she was almost killed by being overinflated. Oliver didn’t seem to care, and for all he cared she was only just a toy for him. Auora knew from the start that he was a little finicky, from the day they met at the magic show in the middle of town to just over an hour ago. She sighed in disappointment, unable to figure out how she will get her revenge, she was thinking of doing the same that he did to her, blow him up until he popped, followed up with a match. Oh, how she demanded revenge, sweet revenge. But before she could ponder on that thought, she was interrupted by Autumn, who had certainly changed, from being a sweet little girl to a full-on teenager, and not in age. She really had changed. But deep down, she was still the same person.

“You alright?” Autumn asked.

Autumn’s voice had certainly changed, it sounded croaky, although Autumn was only two years younger than her sister, it didn’t take the fact away that her sister was essentially an independent woman.

“Yeah…I’m fine.” Auora wheezed out.
“You don’t look it.” Autumn said.
“I know, just had an accident, that’s all.” Auora replied.
“I see, I mean, Oliver was a bit weird.” Autumn smirked.
“Wait? How do you know him?” Auora asked.
“From the day you moved out. Mum never shut up about you two, she was always concerned if you could actually handle living alone, especially since you can blow up like a balloon, whether you’ll be used to keeping it under control.” Autumn explained.
“I see, well…yes I was able to control it.” Auora said.
“And have Oliver blow you up? Literally?” Autumn chuckled.
“Again? How do you know?” Auora asked.
“Oh, the ambulance called Mum, and she spoke with me about it, we both knew something was going to go wrong.” Autumn explained.

Autumn and Lucy had known about this all along? Well, Auora now felt guilty, but for what? That inflation was out of her control. But Autumn was right, Auora’s inflation abilities really could be her weakness, as people can just take advantage of it. She had to change that, but what would be the chances of Oliver telling everyone that she was a balloon, did her mind not want to calm down, the two mixed feelings of anxiety and frustration kept crossing her mind, and it certainly wasn’t helping her usage case. She had to do something, but what?

“You know, you could take revenge on him?” Autumn suggested.
“I…was thinking that, but how?” Auora asked.
“Well…there are many ways, but I’ll let you ponder on them.” She chuckled.
“So you’re going to say I can but not say how? Typical of you Winter.” Auora tormented her.
“Eh, oh well…anyway if you need anything, you can just give me a phone call.” Autumn kissed her and left.

Now both Auora and Autumn thought about revenge. Auora had heard about some inflation methods, such Helium Pills, but they only worked on Females. P-Balloons? No, she wouldn’t know where to obtain them. What else…Making him eat a whole inflated balloon? That would be impossible to do. Man did she have very little idea on how she would get back at him.

A week or so later Auora let out of hospital, she returned home to find the house in a mess. So she put some music on, put some earbuds in and started to clean. Auora had a selection of songs, mostly 1970’s Rock ‘n Role or 1990’s Metal. Sometimes she’d listen to Acoustic Guitar, but the music she chose to listen to would depend on her mood. If she was angry, she’d listen to Heavy Metal? If she was calm she’d listen to 1970’s Rock ‘n Role. AC/DC was a common choice for her, and that meant she could sing almost every song off of the Razor’s Edge Album. And ironically, that was playing. She danced around, swinging her tail and her hips to the song. Songs cheered her up out of any mood. Eventually she finished cleaning whilst almost finishing the album.

“Right, now I need to call my employer…oh boy this is going to be fun…”

Auora then sat on a phone call to her employer, waiting for him to answer.

“Hello Auora, nice to finally hear from you.” Her employer said.
“Hey umm…can we chat about something?” Auora asked.
“Umm…sure sweetie. What’s on your mind?” Her employer asked.
“Well…uhh…me and my boyfriend had some issues and he’s just moved out. So I’m just worried what I’ll do for paying bills as I feel like I’ll struggle, as it’s only just me paying.” Auora explained.
“Well…Sorry to hear that, and thanks for letting me know about your financial situation.” Her employer explained, but little did she know, he was smirking for the wrong reasons.
“Thanks for listing, but is there a possibility I can earn more money by working longer hours? I really don’t care at this point if I have to.” She asked.
“I’m sure we can work something out, whether it’ll be acceptable or not, we’ll work something out.” Her employer explained.
“Alright, thanks, I’ll be in on Monday.” Auora said.
“Alright, no problem, see you on Monday.” The call ended.

Auora was glad she got that off of her chest. She could now finally get back to listening to music. AC/DC came back on, so she just hummed the lyrics whilst going to cook herself some dinner. During dinner. She noticed something off about her Helium Tank. It had indents on it. Maybe something hit it and damaged it, but now that she had taken notice of the tank, she thought of using it, but it just wouldn’t be the same without someone else…as much as she’d hate living with someone else as she had trust issues, she knew she couldn’t afford to live alone.
