(You're Sprout.)

Cosmo got out of the elevator, friendship bracelet on. He was on the restaurant floor, where Sprout was. All he had to do was find Sprout, calm down his best friend, and hopefully get him back. He stayed quiet, though he was nervous. He walked around some tables, keeping an eye out and searching while making sure to not make any sudden movements or loud noises, when he heard heavy, shaky, struggled breaths from the kitchen. He took a deep breath and spoke, keeping his voice gentle to not scare Sprout, but it was shaky.

"Sprout..? You okay?"

He took a step, half behind a corner.
