LU 187 - Dr. Thornberry 47

While I was worrying about where Frezz and Space are in the throne room today, Electric rushed up the stairs.
"Vice, it got bad, you have to see this."
I just followed him, a bit confused, but ready to see the mass. And when we got there... he was right. The normal entrance was fully blocked by the plant, and we had to go through a river close by.
"So Space throwing Chizzy in there did not help."
"He did WHAT?"
....Yeah I knew he had Chizzy's body, but I didn't think he would throw her in a GROWING PLANT MASS. Not only is that disrespectful to her, but this probably made the mass worse, rather than helping it. What was he thinking?
I just sighed, and looked at the plant growth. It had definitely expanded since last time. And there was moss everywhere. After a bit of investigation, we went back to Electric's house and sat down to brainstorm ways of killing it.
I suggested we bathe it in light, and put obsidian under it so it can't escape into the dark, but he explained how it could probably dig through anything... And we already know fire or lava won't work.
I also made sure that this plant did not have any weird sentient ghosts that were fightable. He seemed suspicious, but reassured me none of that was happening... But even then, how am I supposed to help get rid of this thing?
I walked back outside, and stood at the edge of the river.
"Chizzy was dead right? ...What if we- put someone alive in there? ...I mean Space does deserve some punishment for what he did..."
A grin spread across my face, I loved stuff like this.
Electric denied the idea of putting Space in there, but did think that a sacrifice was interesting. After talking about peple we may hate, and that they didn't have to go in willingly, he told me more foolish things Space had done.
"Yeah and when I came here with Space and Mira the other day, Space literally took a nap next to the plant."
That imbecile. No wonder he hasn't been around, he's probably cowering in shame from his ideocracy.
Electric then beckoned for me to follow him back to the plant mass.
"Vice.. do you hear that? The plant- it's telling me to... pierce your heart with my sword and leave your corpse to be used as fertilizer."
I stared at him and backed away, quickly putting my armor on.
"Don't worry, that was a joke."
He laughed as I just looked at him, the most blank expression on my face. 
Hahaha! Yeah! Funny!"
I was wary of him for the rest of our conversation though, and stood on the plant a distance away while we talked. That is until the plant started sucking me up. I panicked a bit and struggled my way out. I shivered; just a few minutes standing on it and it already tried to absorb me. That's my queue to leave. I can't stay here any longer.
We headed back to Electric's porch and said our goodbyes.
"Send me a letter if there are any updates."
And I walked away to Wong's Wash.
After I got my clothes cleaned and freshened, I went looking for Space and Frezz again. I know it's only been a few hours but- I just had a weird feeling about them. Frezz can disappear for days at a time so I wasn't as worried.. but Space- He's always either in the office, or somewhere in town. What happened to him?
He definitely didn't get kidnapped, that wouldn't happen to him. He also wouldn't go on a sudden vacation without telling me... And there's no way he's dead. Space? Dying? He's immortal for fucks sake, that couldn't happen.
But I was a bit worried. I'm not sure if it's everything going on now... but I can just feel a cloud of dread hanging over me at all times. And Space... I wonder if he's alright.
I'll always be there to help him. Hopefully he's not in trouble.
