New Toys! (Roblox ARGs x Forsaken Crossover fic)

Summary:

do YOU, YES YOU, like Forsaken!? Yes? Do you also like Roblox ARG's? Yes?! Well then this is the fanfic for you! I compiled every single roblox ARG I know and crammed them into Forsaken! More roblox ARG's to be added as well 'cause I am constantly finding more!

Notes:

just watch every single SenPrista ARG video. That's what i do bro.

https://www.youtube.com/@SenPrista/videos

Disclaimer: the author is heavily hyperfixated on roblox arg's, more specifically Rochas313 more than anything else, which is why some things may be a little OOC on other characters aside from Rochas313
this fanfic is also based off of the ARG characters roles in PWNED by 14:00.

JX1DX1 will have claws because I said so.

CHARACTERS WILL RELEASE SLOWLY DUE TO ME WANTING TO WRITE THEM IN CHARACTER AND THE FACT THAT I'M TRYING TO REWATCH EVERY SINGLE ARG EXPLINATION VIDEO TO GET THEM RIGHT.

Chapter 1: .Noah.Dead.Or.Alive.Is.Mine.

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

---Start of a Round, Chance---

Chance made a small frown as he flipped his coin to a tails. "C'mon, I was feeling so lucky today..." He mumbled with a small sigh. Once he managed to get enough Heads he adjusted his hat. The killer was John Doe, mindless and animalistic, but really hard to stun, but maybe, if he got a perfect shot he could stun John for a bit longer. Yeah, totally.

As he snuck behind the trees of Yorick's Resting Place he saw Two Time circling and distracting John Doe as Noob ran away, Shedletsky fumbling for his sword, Builderman trying to get a turret up and Dusekkar trying to slow John Doe. Now was his chance (Im so funny), Chance raised his Flintlock and right before he was about to fire. John Doe blinked out of existence, as though he was never there.

"Huh..?" Chance raised an eyebrow before lowering the flintlock in his hand. "Where'd he go?" asked Shedletsky who finally got his sword ready just to be greeted with nothing. "The spawn must have saved us all!" Chimed in Two Time with their usual smile, and before they could finish spouting whatever cultish words they were ready to say. The killer announcement happened again

"This rounds Killer is... Jx1dx1"

"Jx1dx1..?" Shedletsky echoed before a red figure appeared behind him. A sharp shrill echo-y laugh pierced the cold twilight air before dull claws ripped through Shedletsky's back. Shedletsky staggered forwards before Noob caught him.

Chance's Flintlock immediately flew back up fired directly at the unusual red figure. The bullet hit, 'causing the figure to stumble a little, which was enough time for Two Time, Shedletsky, and Noob to run away. Chance also tried to take his chance and run away before a sharp claw grabbed the back of his suit. "You.remind.me.of.someone." Came an odd broken up voice as it turned chance around while holding him up.

Chance's eyes landed upon jx1dx1, a lopsided and nearly malformed smile on it's face and a blackened blocky crown perched on it's head. "But.you.aren.t.him.so..." Came the chopped up voice before Chance was dropped to the ground and suddenly Jx1dx1 violently stopped on Chance's head, crushing it almost instantly and mercilessly.

---Shedletsky---

As he ran away from the scene he turned a corner and he grabbed Two Time. "Hey, please for once be useful and say you have a damn Medkit." Shedletsky said, gasping almost out of breath from the run. "007n7 has the medkit, sorry." Two Time said simply and calmly before they were let go. "Damn it, what the hell was that..." Shedletsky sighed out as he sat against a wall. "New Killer probably, shame, the others are hard enough to get rid of already." Two Time said with their usual smile. "Jx1dx1 was it? I wonder where the spectre got that one from.."

After a few moments of gathering courage and strength he sat back up. "Alright, we're sticking together, we're both stunners, we can protect each other, so lets just stick together until we find the others." Shedletsky explained as he looked at Two Time who hummed and nodded their head "okay!!"

Shedletsky and Two Time wandered into the field of Yoricks Resting Place. Wandering into the silent open they saw Guest 1337 in the entrance of the Mansion. "Hey! Guest!" Shedletsky shouted before running over to Guest 1337. "Have you seen 007n7?" Shedletsky asked as he got close to Guest. "He has the Medkit and I need it pretty bad." "No, But I found this weird kid." Guest 1337 said before he walked them into the mansion to look at the kid.

He had a black suit on with a pan on his head. "He said his name is IHasAFaceLULZ, so I've just called him Lulz." Guest said looking at the kid who was nervously looking and pacing around the room. "New Survivor maybe?" Shedletsky asked as he looked back at Guest. "Maybe, after all we just got a new Killer." Guest responded.

"Look just- can you guys PLEASE tell me where I am?" Lulz asked, averting his eyes from the corners, windows and floor to Shedletsky, Two Time and Guest. "Purgatory, basically." Shedletsky answered with a small sigh. "I've already been in Hell recently!" Lulz nearly shouted before he went back to pacing and nervously checking around the place.

"He's a bit anxious." Guest added after Lulz started looking through the windows. "We were ALL anxious when we first got here to be fair." Shedletsky mumbled before Guest nodded.

The Familiar shrill and echoey laugh sharply rang out through the mansion before Jx1dx1 appeared behind Guest and right as it was about to do the same slash as he did with Shedletsky, Guest whirled around and sucker punched Jx1dx1, causing him to stumble back into a wall due to the surprise. Lulz who was only a few feet away immediately tried to run away as fast as possible, repeating something under his breath.

Jx1dx1, unfortunately, saw him trying to run however, and as soon as he could move he suddenly moved faster than he's ever had and caught up to FaceLulz before snatching him just like he did Chance. "Well.look.who.I.found." laughed jx1 as he held Lulz above the ground. "When will you just leave me alone!?" Came Lulz's voice as he tried kicking away from jx1.

Shedletsky's sword sharply slashed into Jx1dx1's flesh before he dropped FaceLulz as he was stunned. "Run kid, the timers almost out, me, Two Time and Guest can stun him..!" Shedletsky shouted to Lulz who was already scrambling up and away. Right as Jx1 was about to get back up Two Time's Dagger also stabbed into jx1dx1. "Do.not.interfere.and.remember." Jx1's chopped up voice hissed, almost in anger. "Noah.dead.or.alive.is.mine."

The timer struck 0, and they were back in the dusty cabin, with a very shaken up looking FaceLulz.

Notes:

Headcanons to add more sense to this!:

-FaceLulz transitioned a year or two after the events of IHasAFaceLULZ
-FaceLulz is 14-15
-Jx1dx1 has dull claws, so think of a dog's nails sorta.
-Jx1dx1 keeps his dainty lil crown because i fucking said so and FaceLulz keeps her adorable fucking suit because I also said so.

Raggedy Ann is GUARENTEED to show up because I fucking love her, Bone and Fern MIGHT show up.

Chapter 2: 1X1X1X1 hates JX1DX1

Summary:

DISCLAIMER: Bluudud, Pr3typriincess, Mafioso, and other cool skins are their OWN people.

Lulz cries about jx1dx1 to the survivors and jx1 introduces himself to the killers basically going like "no yeah I'm looking for a specific kid to torment" and the others are like "fair enough"

Chapter Text

Brighteyes was on the couch comforting FaceLulz who's face was in has hands nearly crying about jx1dx1 to her. Shedletsky, Guest, Two Time and 007n7 were discussing what to do with him however.

"So, he's a new survivor? Not just somebody who got lost?" Shedletsky asked for confirmation as he looked at his wife make an attempt at calming the crying boy. "Pretty sure, that new killer made a comment about him at the end of the round, remember?" Guest 1337 replied after a moment of looking doubtfully at FaceLulz. "'Noah dead or alive is mine' is what that guy said." "So, the kid's name is Noah?" Shedletsky asked again. "Maybe, go ask him once he's done sobbing." Guest sighed with a shrug as he leaned back on his seat.

"Where's he going to sleep?" Asked Noob who was eavesdropping on the conversation. "Well, usually a new Survivor gets their own room in the cabin right as their added, so maybe go look for a new room with their name on the door." Shedletsky shrugged before he got materialized a chicken wing just to bite into it.

"So, dear, what's your name?" Asked Brighteyes gently as she pat IHasAFaceLULz's back comfortingly. "um, it's-... it's IHasAFaceLULZ.." he mumbled, still sniffling a little. "And how old are you...?" Brighteyes asked again. "..14.." He mumbled in response. "Oh dear, you really are just a kid." Brighteyes said with a frown. "And what does this um, Jx1 guy want from you?" She continued. "Nothing, I think. He just likes tormenting me.." ... "I see..."

"Hey, um, Facelulz, right? You have a room in the cabin." Noob said nervously walking over to the couch where Brighteyes and Facelulz were sitting. Facelulz looked up at noob before wiping his tears away quickly and sniffling. "I do?" He asked. "Yeah, this way. I know 'cause it's next to mine." Noob said, their voice still slightly shaky from the round that had occurred a few minutes before. Noob waited for Lulz to get up from the couch before they led him to his new room.

"Here, we know 'cause it says your name on it." Noob said tapping on the door and name that was carved into the frail wood. Lulz's eyes lingered on the frail frame of the doorway before sighing as he reached out and grasped the brass doorknob.

The Inside of his room was just like that of everybody else's. Basic furniture like a table, chair and bed inside with a few empty shelves. Except on the bed was a soft little black bunny plush, something that was unique to FaceLulz's room. "..Simple.." he echoed as he stepped in and surveyed the room with Noob behind him.

"So, since we're like, um, neighbors sorta..? We could do things together if you want, like I could share my Bloxy Colas with you if you wanted!" Noob said, their voice a little shaky, they didn't have many friends due to them being "meh" at everything, so maybe, maybe this was a chance to make one. "Oh, sure..!" Lulz said with a small thoughtful smile as he looked at Noob who awkwardly smiled back.

"So, get.. uhh... settled and all, and I'll come in with some Bloxy Colas and we can chat later, how about that?" Noob asked fiddling with their hands. "Sure, that sounds okay." FaceLulz said with a little more relaxed and happy smile.

---Meanwhile with the Killers---

Jx1dx1 was left in the empty Yoricks Resting Place. You see.. He wasn't even supposed to be here, The Specter didn't add him yet, once he had found out that the Specter took IHasAFaceLULZ, he forced his way into the pocket dimension to get to him, because no way he was leaving him alone. But, hell, a new Killer just arrived right at the specter's doorstep, and would it let them wriggle away? Absolutely Not.

Right as Jx1dx1 was about to try and teleport to where Lulz was, he himself was teleported away and into somewhere that felt further. Once he looked around he found himself in a wooden cabin with a couple other people who stopped what they were doing to look at him.

"Who are you." came a rough voice that echoed slightly. Turning around Jx1dx1 came face to face with 1x1x1x1. He didn't shrink down, no, of course he wouldn't. "I.AM.JX1DX1." he responded simply. "Why the hell do you talk so obnoxiously. I barely know you and I already hate your guts more than normal." 1x1x1x1 hissed, his expression of distain deepening a little. "HOW.I.TALK.IS.NONE.OF.YOUR.CONCERN." jx1dx1 said dismissively. "WHERE.AM.I?" He asked in his chopped up voice as he looked directly at 1x1x1x1.

"Purgatory. That's where, specifically you're in the killers cabin." 1x1x1x1 growled out after a moment as his piercing red eyes shot daggers at jx1dx1. "HOW.DO.I.GET.OUT.I.HAVE.PEOPLE.TO.SEE." Jx1dx1 asked straightforwardly. "First off new guy that looks like a damn rotten tomato. You can't leave, if we could leave I assure you I wouldn't be here with these morons." 1x1x1x1 rolled his eye as he basically spat out the word "morons".

"I.SEE." jx1dx1 said before thinking. "AND.THESE.ARE.THE.'MORONS'?" jx1dx1 asked as he turned around the look at Noli, Mafioso and John Doe who were all just standing there watching. "Yeah basically." 1x1x1x1 said plainly as he stared at John Doe. "Hey [HOT SHOT]!! I am NOT a [GOD DAMN MOORRRROOONNNNN]!!!" Noli started before he was quickly shut up by 1x1x1x1 throwing one of his daemonshanks at him. "Your voice is like a cheese grater. Do not talk." He hissed. "I F-[orking] [HATRED] you." Noli hissed back before disappearing into one of the shadows of the dark corner.

"Well, get yourself at home, or don't. I don't fucking care." 1x1x1x1 said before he looked at jx1dx1 one last time as he walked over to his own room and violently slammed the door shut.

Chapter 3: Mafias or Cults

Notes:

Would you rather be in the Mafia or in a Cult?

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

After a few more rounds, nothing too out of the ordinary had happened. The game continued as normal. C00lkidd, John Doe, 1x1x1x1, Bluudud, Noli and then John Doe again. It wasn't until FaceLulz was chosen to also take place in a round.

"This round's killer is... Mafioso"

Came the killer announcement before Lulz's vision cleared up to show the chosen map, Brandon's Place. He was a little confused, so he really WAS survivor, and he really DID have to survive..? Well, he's barely survived Jx1dx1 so maybe this could work out. Maybe, maybe was the key word here.

With a small sigh and breath of confidence he walked out from his spawnpoint, the air was crisp and cold as twilight light basked the place, a soft little twinkle of music played in the background. The place could almost be calming and peaceful if not for the lingering fear of the killer. Lulz straightened the pan on his head before walking over to the nearest generator

He's never fixed a generator, or really done anything with wires before but it looked simple enough. Just tape the red wire to the other broken red wire, blue to the blue wire, it was easy once he got the hang of it. A few times he'd jump at a noise of a scream or twig snap and accidentally shock his hands, which only caused his hands to shake more.

Right as he finished a generator he was about to stand up and stretch before another kid crashed into him while they were turning a corner. With a tumble and a few gasps and shouts he managed to sit up. Grabbing his Tin Pot and readjusting it back into his head before he looked at the kid who ran into him, he was just a bit younger than Lulz and wore a black jacket with a golden DC logo on the front and left sleeve. "Oh- sorry friend, was running from someone." he said, he had a sort of speech impediment. "Uh- No problem I guess." Lulz reassured before he dusted the grass off of his suit. "Who're you running from..?" "Ah, um, someone scary."

Once FaceLulz was back on his feet he held out a hand for the younger boy to help him get up. "What's your name?" Lulz asked as he pulled him onto his feet "Brandon!" he answered with a sweet smile. "Well, Hi Brandon." Lulz said before he sighed and peaked around the corner to look for any sign of what Brandon might have been running from. Nothing. "Hey, could you describe who you were running from?" Lulz asked as he looked back at Brandon before turning back around and surveying the empty clearing.

"Tall, um.. scary, and had the same skin tone as you!" Brandon said after thinking for a few moments. "Do you have ANY idea how LITTLE that narrows it down?" Lulz asked with a small sigh as he looked back at Brandon. "Uhm... Yeah, I think." Brandon said before he too sighed and looked down "Sorry.".

When Brandon looked back up he seemed to freeze in fear. "What?" Lulz asked confused as he looked at Brandon's suddenly scared face before he turned around curiously, wondering if there was anybody behind him. Immediately as he turned around he saw what Brandon was so scared of, "Well what we got here eh..?" Mafioso mumbled, his Fedora just barely hiding his eyes as he towered over the two boys. "Oi, boys, hold 'em still." Mafioso called out as he stepped closer. Right before FaceLulz and Brandon was about to run away two men who dressed similarly to Mafioso seemed to come from nowhere and immediately grabbed them.

"Hey!-" Lulz exclaimed as he tried to immediately struggle away. "Calm down ya' pest." Mafioso growled annoyed as he rolled his eyes before leaning down to his height. "I haven't seen you two before..." Mafioso continued as he tilted his head a bit. "New survivors eh? Seems like we get 'em all the time... Well, all survivors owe Lady Eunoia debt, no matter how young. Sorry kid." He said for a moment before he quickly and swiftly shot out his hand and choked Lulz.

"Hey- Leave him alone!" Brandon suddenly shouted immediately also struggling as the mafia men made sure Brandon didn't escape. Lulz sputtered and choked for a solid few seconds before he thought quickly and rather smartly, suddenly he used his free hand, grabbed the steel pot on his head and clocked Mafioso hard over the head. Mafioso made a hiss of pain before dropping Lulz and stumbling back, his minions stopped in a moment of shock and Lulz immediately grabbed Brandon's wrist and ran.

As they ran through the twilight whos peace was disturbed by the presence of the panicked teens and the Mafia men close behind. Lulz pulled Brandon behind a wall of stone and covered his mouth and his own mouth. After a few tense minutes, when he was sure the Mafia wasn't close by, Lulz exhaled before dropping his guard and touching his possibly bruised neck and by extension windpipe.

"Oh, I can help with that!" Brandon said cheerfully as he pointed at Facelulz's neck. Before Lulz could reply Brandon basically placed down a white open box. "Get in" "what?" "Get in." "..why?" "It's a Light bin! You'll feel better if you go in!" Confused, Lulz raised an eyebrow before climbing into the light bin. Surprisingly, he was very slowly feeling better, and the bin was glowing a soft pure white color which looked kinda nice..

Once he finished up in the light bin the clock struck 0:00, and they were back in the musty cabin. BrandonWorks and Lulz beside each other."Huh? Where'd he come from?" Guest 1337 asked as he looked over at Brandonworks. "I um, found him?" Lulz shrugged. "Hello!!" Brandon smiled and waved at Guest and the other survivors. "How many new survivors are we gonna get...." Shedletsky asked to himself as he ran a hand through his curly hair.

Chapter Text

After a couple minutes Brandon went up to everyone to say hi individually, he was a polite boy, waving, smiling and even sometimes shaking hands with them. Strangely seeming a little more mature than usual, especially for a 12 year old boy. Eventually once he met most of everyone he skipped over to his room that Lulz showed him to.

---Two Time---

Their owl-ish eyes stared at the young boy who wore a slightly oversized black shirt. Cocking their head to the side a little, a few moments before, he had politely shook their hand, seemingly oblivious to the uncanniness of them and their general stare. Polite, but something was off about him. The Cultist watching as Brandon stuck a green slab to the front of his door before entering.

He intrigued Them, which likely wasn't good for either of them.

After a few minutes, perhaps half an hour, Two time couldn't tell anyway, time was weird here, Two Time knocked on the door to Brandon's Room. Eerily smiling as Brandon answered the door. "Oh, hello friend!" Brandon said politely with a small wave, "What are you doing here?" He asked Two Time. "Oh nothing, I just wanted to make sure you're... settled in." Two Time said, their voice as 'normal' as they could possibly seem. They didn't want to scare the kid after all, they just wanted to know why he was so... Odd.

"May I ask.. Why did you stick a... green... what even is this...? On your door?" Two Time asked as they looked perplexedly at the green 'brick' hung or stuck on the door like a decoration. "Green keeps things clean!" Brandon simply answered with a smile on his face. "May I see the inside of your room...?" Asked Two Time after a solid moment of thinking. "I'd love to see what you've done with the place so far..." They continued before Brandon happily nodded and moved out of the way for Two Time to come in.

The room was decorated nicely, well, as nice as a 12 year old could decorate a room. Green slabs stuck to the walls here and there and 2 lightboxes. 1 in the corner of his room and 1 next to his bed. "These lightboxes are safe to touch!" Brandon said before sticking his hand in one to show Two Time. "I see.." Two Time said with their unchanging smile.

"Well, say, have you ever heard of The Spawn? Brandon.. was it?" Two Time continued as they sat down on a small chair across from Brandon. "The Spawn? What's that?" Brandon asked with a small cock of his head as he looked at Two Time. "Well Brandon! The Spawn is god! The Spawn is glorious, their steadfast love endures forever!" Two Time exclaimed, their smile somehow widening at the chance to talk about The Spawn. Brandon's smile faded innocently as he frowned. "But The Spawn can't be god. Dad says otherwise..." Brandon mumbled out as he looked at the ceiling and bit the inside of his mouth.

Two Time's eye twitched at the words "But The Spawn can't be god" with a small chuckle they calmed back down. "Brandon.. You can't exactly say that.. That's utter Blasphemy against the Spawn..! And whomever is your Fathers god, is a false god." Two Time said slowly like they were talking to a toddler. "But that's wrong! They all say it- The Goods-..!" Brandon stumbled his words out, clearly upset at this point.

Before Two Time could have a rebuttal or worse, lash out somebody else stepped into the room. "Two Time, don't bug the kid with talk about the Spawn." said Shedletsky, stepping in because he heard Brandon's upset stuttering. "Please." He added. Two Time's eye twitched again as their smile morphed into a more passive aggressive one. "hehehe, Shedletsky.. All I'm doing is informing this poor kid that he's in a cult!" Two Time said sweetly as they stood up and shook their head before they shrugged. "Whatever though. I'll leave." Two Time continued before they calmly walked out of the room, leaving Brandon with an upset and worried look on his face.

"Listen kid, don't worry about them." Shedletsky said with a sigh before he pat the kids shoulder before looking around the room. "...Interesting decor here.." He mumbled out, kind of seeing where Two Time was coming from at the green sheets or bricks plastered around the room.

 

great.. Just great... two cultists in one cabin, how bad could this be?

Chapter 5: and so it 𝐒𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐬.

Summary:

DISCLAIMER: AUTHOR IS A BASIC CANADIAN BITCH, AND DOES NOT SPEAK PORTUGUESE (or Spanish), SO I USED GOOGLE TRANSLATE.

Chapter Text

Brandon seemed like a happy kid, at least when he wasn't being hunted by killers, but at the same time, he just, seemed too young to be here, then again c00lkidd was also too young to be here. He was so.. sweet. At least that's what Shedletsky thought of him.

"This rounds killer is... 1x1x1x1"

Shedletsky made a small weary sigh as his vision came back, Planet Voss, he knew he was either going to get targeted, or saved for last this round, knowing how much 1x1x1x1 absolutely hated him. He ran a hand through his curly hair for a moment before he picked up the familiar sound of a rattlesnake-like tail. Shedletsky spotted a generator nearby before stretching his hands and carefully picking up the wires, he's been shocked many times before but for some reason it never seemed to hurt less.

Brandon and FaceLulz seemed to have acclimated to the new environment and situation, because luckily he hasn't heard them scream yet. However he did hear Chance scream like a little girl before hearing his gun-misfire. After a few more minutes the generator roared to life. Right as he got up he heard a shrill and sharp scream, it sounded like a kid, again, but it wasn't Brandon or Facelulz.

"QUE DIABOS É VOCÊ?!" somebody screamed through Planet Voss as Shedletsky peaked out from behind a tree. A boy with a forest green hoodie was backed against a wall trembling, very clearly terrified as he looked up at 1x1x1x1. "PARE COM ISSO- PARE COM ISSO POR FAVOR!-" he shrieked as the lime green killer stepped closer. "Well I haven't seen this one before." Hissed 1x1x1x1 as is red glaring eyes were locked on Rochas's trembling form. "um- English?" Rochas paused for a moment as he squeaked out the words. "Yes English you stupid fucking child." growled 1x1x1x1 as he rolled his eyes. "I'm- I'm sorry I just- sorry-" Rochas whimpered out as he threw his hands up to protect his face.

"Hey 1x! Stop bothering the kid." Shedletsky called across the field as he stepped out from behind the tree. 1x1x1x1's eyes immediately snapped towards Shedletsky's voice. "YOU!" "Yes, me, Hi!" Shedletsky said with a wave before jumping out of the way of a Daemonshank that was violently thrown in his direction. "Wait- Shedletsky?" Rochas asked for a moment looking over at Shedletsky as his mouth dropped open. "Yes kid it's me, I'm sure we'll meet again but for now I gotta run!" Shedletsky waved goodbye before he started running because 1x1x1x1 was charging across the field to him.

"Rochas!- are you okay?" another kid called out to Rochas as he came running over to him, a kid with a white fedora and dress shirt. "Cappy, I think, I think I just saw the real Shedletsky." Rochas said, clearly still in surprise and shock. "what." "Don't worry about it- just- where's Space and Dash!???" "they ran the other way" "Merda.."

...

"Think of this like the time we hid from those police while urban exploring, stay quiet, and don't move." 1Dash whispered through his skull mask as he looked out from behind the wall. Spacewanderer was holding his balloon close to his chest to avoid it peaking out from anything and his other hand clasped over his mouth. "Police don't want to kill us, that thing does." He whispered out "Just stay quiet!-" 1Dash whisper shouted at him before he hugged his knees to his chest as he sat next to space.

"...It's quiet, the crickets stopped chirping." "I'm sure it's nothing, maybe they fell asleep." "..." "..." "I hear footsteps."

There was soft footsteps, soft shakes of a rattlesnake tail. 1Dash carefully leaned out to check the surroundings only to nearly be beheaded by a glowing green sword. To which he immediately ducked back behind the wall. "fuck-" he swore before he and Space stumbled to get up and start running, very fast. "I see you." Growled out the rough vibrating voice "run- just run- fucking run." 1Dash shakily shouted to Spacewanderer as he gripped his hand to make sure he didn't fall behind. 1x1x1x1 threw one of his swords, as it whistled through the air it found its target.

Spacewanderer yelped when the sword hit, it didn't stab or stick, it poofed into chains that sharply wrapped around him, causing him to stumble and fall. 1Dash looked back at Space, if his eyes were visible they'd likely be terrified. He didn't want to leave Space behind, he didn't let go of Space's hand, instead grabbing it with his other one too. Trying to drag Space as he used one hand to get the chains off so he could get up. "Faster- faster be faster!" shouted 1Dash, a small waver to his voice as he looked at 1x1x1x1 who was unfortunately approaching extremely rapidly.

Right as 1x1x1x1 was about to strike the both of them a gunshot fire rang out through the forest, hitting 1x1x1x1 and causing him to fall to his knees, at least, for now. 1Dash and Spacewanderer opened their eyes out of surprise to look at the source of the sound, which was, very, very surprisingly. Cappy. He had such a big smile on his face before he jumped a bit "¡diablos, sí! I am a cowboy!" "where the FUCK did you get that?!" 1Dash snapped at Cappy as Spacewanderer kicked off the rest of the chains. "I don't know!" "You're thirteen years old!" 1Dash shouted back before his eyesight suddenly went black along with everyone else's.

---

"Oh god there's four of them." Shedletsky said as he looked at the teenagers standing in front of him who were basically gawking at the fact that it was THE Shedletsky. "Why's there so many kids nowadays." Chance remarked also looking at them, and then back at Facelulz and Brandon who were on the side. "And who gave that one a gun.." Chance mumbled to himself. "Alright kids, first off, your rooms are somewhere over there, we will ALL answer questions and clear up things LATER, I am tired because I just got chased across a whole ass forest for two of you." Shedletsky announced as he looked at the kids before pointing at where the Bedrooms usually where before he sighed and went to his own room out of exhaustion.

Chapter Text

"Hello new friends!" Brandon said with a polite smile as he took Rochas' hand in both of his and shook it. "Green is a very good color!" "Thanks! I like it too!" Rochas said returning the smile "Keeps things clean, very good color!" Brandon repeated before patting Rochas' sleeve and then hopping over to Cappy "You look cool!" Brandon innocently pointed at Cappy before going down the line of new people. "He sure is social." Rochas commented to Cappy as he looked at Brandon who was currently in front of 1Dash.

"Oh, New friends! and Old friends, I have made something to keep us company in the cabin!" Brandon said once he finished talking to 1Dash and Spacewanderer, now talking to everyone in the cabin. "We aren't really lacking company" commented Builderman, causing Brandon to frown for a moment before he continued to smile. "I made him a long time ago, but he can keep us company!" Brandon said before pulling out something from his room. It was an NPC of himself but with all black clothes. "I made him to leave him behind for Ozo when I go to meet the Goods! But for now he can keep us company!" He led the NPC over to beside the fireplace. "He can stay here for now!"

"May I ask, what are the goods?" asked Brighteyes as she stepped a bit closer to Brandon out of curiousity "Oh, the goods are.. well, the Goods!" Brandon said, unsure how to explain it to Brighteyes "Speaking of Ozo, I wonder where he is!" Brandon commented before heading out the door of the cabin "I'm going to go find him!"

"Strange kid." Brighteyes mumbled as she watched him march out the door. "Does anybody know who Ozo is?" Cappy asked "No." replied everyone.

Rochas approached the NPC before poking it a little to see if it did anything "Lets chat! how are you feeling?" it spoke. "I'm feeling good" Rochas replied before the NPC paused for a moment "cool :D what have you been up to?" "Playing Videogames" Rochas said which wasn't untrue. "oh what game is your favorite right now?" Rochas thought for a moment before saying "I suppose Heli-wars is cool." "Ozo is that you? LOL it must be! hope you still get out there and pwn, so much fun"

---Cappy0---

Cappy smiled as he decorated his room, apparently Rochas didn't have a room of his own, so he and Cappy would happily share one. Cappy was busy trying to hang the Trans Flag on his wall before he heard a knock on his door. To which he looked over at it "uh, come in?" he called out before he finished hanging it up. IHasAFaceLULZ peaked in "I just wanted to say hi.." he mumbled. "Well hi then!" Cappy said walking over to the door. "What flag is that?" FaceLULZ asked as he glanced at the Trans Flag

"Oh! so that's a pride flag! That one means Transgender, which means I WAS a girl, but now I'm a boy, in the simplest words at least." Cappy said explaining it to LULZ who raised an eyebrow. "Really? That's the term for it...?" "mhm!" "Sometimes I wish I was a girl." LULZ mumbled with a sigh. "Then be one!" Cappy said with a shrug. "wha- I can't just 'be one'!" LULZ nearly shouted in disbelief. "Sure you can! Here, tell you what, I'm going to dress you up as a girl, and then we'll see what you think! It worked for me!" Cappy said with a happy little jump. LULZ sighed after a moment, "fine, I don't see a problem with it.." he mumbled.

...

"Cappy why are you dressing him in a soft pink dress..?" Rochas asked as he stepped into the room, watching as Cappy fixed the bows on the dress. "This is important Rochas, trust me" Cappy said before leading LULZ to a nearby mirror. "Is it good?" Cappy asked bouncing a little waiting for LULZ's reaction. He sort of stared at himself in the dress, he loved it but it felt a little embarrassing to love it, he fiddled with his fingers, "I like it.." he mumbled "WONDEROUS!" Cappy cheered jumping up. "So, wanna be a girl?" Cappy asked excitedly. "Well I need time to think about it!" LULZ snapped

--- Rochas ---

"It's like a permanent sleep over! This is great!" Rochas happily giggled as he sat on his make-shift bed in Cappy's room. "I wonder why you didn't get a room, when me, 1Dash, and Spacewanderer got one." Cappy wondered with a sigh before he smiled again. "I bet we could somehow manage to play something in here, I'm not sure if it's digital or not, but hey, board games are better than no games!" "True!" Rochas said with a nod of his head "Oooh! I wonder if it snows here! I've always wanted snow!" He gasped sitting upright in his little makeshift bed. "Maybe!" Cappy responded giggling.

"What's even better, I bet the tree is long gone now.." Rochas said as he laid back down, smiling as he placed his hat beside his bed. "I hope so." Cappy mumbled. "ANYWAY, goodnight Rochas!"

---1x1x1x1---

It pissed him off how much change was happening at once, first there was a weird ass red guy that appeared, and now there were 4 newer pests to worry about. "Oh come ON, you HAVE to have done SOMETHING." 1x1x1x1 shouted at Jx1dx1 who was sitting on the killer's couch levitated an apple. ".I.DIDN.T.DO.ANYTHING." Jx1dx1 said simply. "Bullshit. Things started going weird ever since YOU appeared." 1x1x1x1 snapped pointing a dull claw at the demon-like entity.

"D-don't even b-b-bother with tha-at [Interesting specimen] h-he wont [Talk to m-] or [ANYONE!?]." Noli said from the shadows in which he lingered. ".YOU.ARE.BROKEN.,.CORRUPTED.WHY.WOULD.I.BE.INTERESTED.IN.TALKING.TO.YOU.("?")" Jx1dx1 replied, shooting a glare at Noli who glared back. "I am [NOT] broken." Noli hissed back. ".DENYING.THE.TRUTH.WONT.HELP.YOU." Jx1 continued "Nevermind [1x1x1x1], do [WHATEVER YOU WANT!] with him, I don't give a s-[Shiny!]." Noli growled as he disappeared into the shadows, only his eye visible for a moment until it completely vanished.

"Seriously creep. Everything started going downhill when YOU arrived. And I will find out who, or what, you are." 1x1x1x1 hissed his deep red eyes narrowing and glaring at Jx1dx1 who shrugged. ".OKAY."

"Hey there's a n-new killer he-here t-t-today" Noli commented to 1x1x1x1 as he pointed at a new door that appeared, somehow he was on the whole other side of the cabin, but that's fine. "What's their name." 1x1x1x1 asked, averting his gaze from jx1dx1 to look at the new door.

"R-Rochas"

Chapter Text

--- Rochas ---

It seemed a little odd, all of his friends got a room and cool abilities to use, Cappy had a gun, 1Dash could finish generators much faster than anyone else, and Spacewanderer could give buffs to people using Balloons. But Him? He couldn't do much of anything, no cool abilities, no room, was he supposed to even be here?

"This rounds killer is... ("Error")"

Rochas raised an eyebrow when his vision came back, 'Error'? Did the Specter short circuit it's game somehow? "Cappy?" He called out, wondering if Cappy or the 1Dash was in the round too, It was Planet Voss again, the same map it was when he found himself in this place. "Cappyyy..?" he wandered through the forest-like map trying to find anyone.

He found something, not someone.

The cool night air breezed against his face as he looked at that damn tree, he stood frozen, stuck in place, it followed him, like it always did. The tree was here too. He wanted to turn and immediately run but he couldn't he was frozen, looking at the leafless tree in front of him. The rhythm of a heartbeat pulsing through the air.

"Rochas!" Cappy came running over to him, "Rochas I found you!" He said happily smiling as he hugged Rochas kept staring at the tree. "What are you..." Cappy asked, trailing off as he looked over to where Rochas was staring to see the tree. "Oh.. it's.... it's here... Rochas, let's go." Cappy mumbled nervously taking Rochas' hand before trying to tug him away.

But he stuck where he was, rooted in to the ground as he kept staring. "Rochas, snap out of it." Cappy mumbled his voice a little shaky. "That thing scares me." He noticed that Rochas' hand was shaking, he was shaking, ever so slightly. "Rochas, please, c'mon." Cappy whined a little, he didn't want to hear that heartbeat anymore, he didn't want to look at that tree anymore, he wanted to stay far, FAR away from it...

"Why's... why's it here too..." Rochas mumbled out, his voice hoarse. "Rochas- Rochas look at me, just follow me. okay??" Cappy asked, trying to pull Rochas at this point. "It's... talking..." Rochas whispered out Paralyzed with fear. "What?" "Cappy it's talking to me-.." "Ignore it- just- follow me- please." Cappy mumbled desperately.

Rochas suddenly pushed Cappy off of him, "don't- don't touch-.." he mumbled, "Rochas- please tell me what you're doing!" Cappy nearly shrieked, clearly terrified of the situation.

"Hello friends!" Brandon said running over to them "What's wrong?" He asked looking at Rochas and Cappy curiously. "It's the damn tree- it's- it's back." Cappy explained as he point at the tree a few yards away. The heartbeat audible. "Oh.. I don't.. I don't like that tree.." Brandon said, getting a little nervous at the mere sight of it. "Green, green keeps thing clean right? Rochas is green." Brandon said with a frown as he looked at Rochas who was shaking. "He's... He's fine." Cappy mumbled hopefully. "Rochas, c'mon, please, come with us..."

Suddenly however, Rochas crumpled to the grass "Porro- minha cabeça dói..." he mumbled to himself, Cappy nearly panicked before trying to lift Rochas back up "Rochas! Get up! C'mon!" Cappy shouted, trying to get Rochas to stand up, but they were kids, and Cappy wasn't too strong. "Brandon go get the others!"

--- BrandonWorks ---

Brandon immediately darted, he was small but relatively fast, and quite terrified at the scene behind him. Running through the forest-like map until he found somebody, Shedletsky and Builderman. "Friends!" Brandon shouted to them as he ran over to them. They were trying to fix a Generator but that did NOT matter right now. "Friends! Cappy and Rochas are in danger!" He shouted before collapsing next to them, worn out from running across the map.

"Who's the killer?" Shedletsky asked, holding Brandon by the shoulders. "I- I dunno!" "damn it, okay kid, lead me to where they are." Shedletsky said unsheathing the sword he had. Brandon had a small look of Dismay at the thought of having to run all the way back there but he knew he had to. He took a few deep breathes before dashing off again, Shedletsky behind him.

When they got back things had very, very clearly escalated. Cappy was being strangled against the tree by Rochas' heavily trembling hands. "Friends?!" Brandon shouted in fear as he looked at the scene. Rochas turned over to look at Brandon, Rochas wasn't smiling, not deriving any pleasure from this, infact he looked utterly terrified. Not for long however, His face immediately turned into anger as soon as his eyes landed on Shedletsky.

"Você!" He snapped before he dropped Cappy "You did NOTHING to stop it, and look what's happening now!" He snapped, his voice cracking with fear and anger. "What does this have to do with me?!" Shedletsky snapped back slightly provoked by the accusation. "We sent report after report after report! Asking, pleading, BEGGING for ONE of you to help us and YOU DID NOTHING." Rochas shouted as he stepped closer to Shedletsky.

Brandon looked at noticed that on Rochas' hand he had claws he didn't have before, they looked like splinters. "Rochas please calm down.." Brandon spoke up meekly. This was starting to remind him a little of how his Parents used to fight and he didn't like it. Rochas calmed for a moment as he looked at Brandon before he made a pained groan and covered his ears before crumpling again. "I don't understand- I don't know what's going on anymore!" He shouted as he squeezed his eyes shut.

"Kid, c'mon, calm down." Shedletsky said calmly after a moment as he walked over to Rochas and put his hand out for Rochas to grab incase he needed help getting up. As soon as Shedletsky's voice hit Rochas' ears his eyes snapped open and he violently slashed Shedletsky's arm. Causing him to curse and immediately try to back away. Which Rochas didn't let happen.

"Não tente correr!" he snapped gripping Shedletsky's arm, the kid was somehow all of a sudden, really strong. He pushed and shoved Shedletsky, trying to get at his neck with his claws Leaving Brandon stunned and scared, he was just a support, what could he do?

A Sharp bang rang out among the trees and Rochas stumbled back, immediately letting go Shedletsky of out confusion, he was stunned, he didn't die, how did he not die? He was just a kid and he supposedly just got shot. Looking at where the shot came from they saw another kid holding the Shotgun, he had a scarf and purple sweater, he was clearly a little stunned that he had hit a target affectively. Luckily, the round was coming to an end, so before Rochas could get up and recover, their visions faded to black

--- Jacob ---

He just shot a kid, I mean was it really a kid? It WAS attacking somebody, he confusedly looked around once his vision came back. "Oh look, another one." Chance said looking at Jacob. "..why do all the kids have a gun." he remarked looking at the Shotgun in Jacobs hands which made him hold it tighter. "..Thanks kid, what's your name." Shedletsky asked once he recovered from almost being mauled by Rochas

"My name's Jacob.."

"Wait- Rochas? Rochas!?" Cappy called out for a moment once he could stand up, darting around the cabin. "Rochas isn't here!" "Hold on, what the hell did I miss, I wasn't in the round." 1Dash interrupted Cappy by grabbing him and forcing him to look at him. "The tree is here and Rochas went a little insane and now he isn't in the cabin!" Cappy cried before slipping out of 1Dash's hands only to nearly literally start sobbing. Brighteyes gently pat his back, "I'm sure he's fine dear..." She said reassuringly to cappy "¿Dónde estás Rochas?" he sobbed out into his hands.

--- Rochas ---

The shot rung in his ears long after it had finished, when everything went dark he found himself in the middle of a different Cabin. The Killers looked over at him "Oh look, there's the new one." Mafioso said, his fedora's shadow hiding his eyes as he glared down at Rochas who was back to shaking in fear. "new one?" he echoed "New what- where am I? Where's Cappy?" He asked looking around clearly very terrified.

JX1DX1 suddenly picked up the kid by his hoodie. ".I.KNOW.THIS.ONE." he said his voice broken up like it always was. Once he turned Rochas around to look at him Rochas immediately tried getting him to put him down "Let me down!-" He cried. ".YOU.RE.THE.ONE.WITH.THE.TREE." Jx1dx1 continued, not really caring that Rochas was squirming and crying. ".WHAT.ARE.YOU.DOING.HERE.("?")" it asked as it looked curiously at Rochas who didn't answer and just continued to sob. To which Jx1dx1 just shook him a little. ".RESPOND.PLEASE." "I- I DON'T KNOW! JUST PUT ME DOWN! LET GO!" Rochas sobbed out to which JX1DX1 just rolled his eyes and dropped the kid.

".HE.IS.USELESS.FOR.NOW." He said crossing his arms as he watched Rochas scramble into a corner and hug his knees to close to his chest sobbing and shaking. ".HE.LL.GROW.JUST.LIKE.HIS.TREE."

"Cappy, por favor, volte..." Rochas whimpered out through his sobs.

Notes:

Just a small note here, the reason why JX1DX1 knows who Rochas is is because He knows about other ARG's in this fic to make things interesting.

Chapter 8: Deal with The Devil

Summary:

YAY MORE ROCHAS ANGST

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

--- JX1DX1 ---

Rochas had been sobbing there for over an hour now, huddled into a corner of the killer's Cabin most if not all of them didn't care. If any of them go too close he'd just cry louder so they had generally given up on stopping the crying child. Except JX1DX1, he hadn't given up on trying to communicate with the kid despite the kid very very clearly just wanting to be left alone.

".COME.ON.DO.SOMETHING." JX1DX1 hissed softly as he poked the kid, trying to get him to do anything but violently sob, to which Rochas only recoiled a bit before continuing to sob. "L-leave me a-alone!" He sobbed out. ".I.VE.HEARD.THOSE.WORDS.MANY.MANY.TIMES.BEFORE." "Th-then ma-maybe start lis-listening to them!?" ".YOU.DON.T.UNDERSTAND." Rochas just continued to sob into his knees.

".I.KNOW.YOU.VE.SEEN.HIM." JX1DX1 said before poking Rochas, Rochas snapped and slapped his hand away. "Stop touching me-" He sniffled. ".WHAT.WOULD.YOU.PREFER.I.POKE.YOU.WITH.A.STICK.OR.A.FORK.MY.HANDS.ARE.HARDLY.THE.WORST.OPTION." JX1DX1 rolled his eyes ".HERE.I.LL.POKE.YOU.WITH.A.STICK.IS.THIS.BETTER.("?")" He asked before materializing a stick in his claws just to poke Rochas with it. Rochas growled a little before slapping his hand, and stick, away again. "What does leave me alone mean to you!? Idiota estúpido! I don't WANT to answer your questions I don't WANT to be here I want to go back home damn it!" Rochas yelled

JX1DX1 ignored his words once more before thinking to himself. ".YOU.HAVE.A.FRIEND." He stated with a small tilt of his head. ".DO.YOU.WANT.HIM.BACK.("?")" It asked Rochas. "Cappy...?" Rochas echoed after a moment. ".YES.CAPPY.DO.YOU.WANT.TO.SEE.HIM.AGAIN.("?")" it repeated the question with surprising patience. "...mhm..." Rochas nodded his head. ".I.LL.GET.HIM.FOR.YOU.IF.YOU.ANSWER.MY.QUESTION." It offered in the 'sweetest' voice it could possibly have "...fine, what was it again?" Rochas asked, drying his tears with his sleeve

".HAVE.YOU.SEEN.A.BOY.WITH.A.TIN.POT.ON.HIS.HEAD.BY.THE.NAME.NOAH.("?")"
"..Yeah, is he important?"
".WHERE.DID.YOU.SEE.HIM.("?")"
"Well, in our Cabin, with all the other survivors."
".I.SEE."
".I.WILL.GET.YOU.YOUR.FRIEND.BACK."

Once it was time for another round JX1DX1 forced his way to be chosen as the next killer of the round.

Once his eyes opened he immediately began searching, running through The Underground War map. Trying to spot either LULZ or Cappy, anyone else he'd just kill like normal. Soon he saw one, but it was Chance, unfortunate. Chance was fixing a generator, taping the red wire to the red outlet, ectara ectara. He carefully stalked closer to Chance, his tail lashing a bit before he suddenly pounced. Chance unfortunately for them didn't have time to reach for his Flintlock or scream much before his neck was snapped.

1 down, 8 to go. He quickly moved on.

...

Three more left. Brandon, Guest, and luckily for JX1DX1, Cappy.

--- Cappy ----

They were huddled together in a corner, they finished all of the generators so really what more was there to do but sit and wait for the timer to run out. "Are you feeling Better Cappy..?" Bandon asked trying to lift Cappy's spirits just a little bit, sure it was only an Hour or two since the Rochas incident but the kid wanted to at least help somewhat.

"Huh-.. Oh, I'm better, better than I was." Cappy said, still clearly worried. "...I made you a flower crown!" Brandon said after a moment before presenting Cappy with a dandelion flower crown to his surprise, Brandon probably made it by picking random flowers from around the map. "Does it make you feel better...?" Brandon asked hopefully. "..Yeah, thanks Brandon." Cappy said with a small smile as he carefully took the Flower Crown from his hands to gently put it over his hat.

While Cappy and Brandon were chatting behind him, Guest kept watch, part of them reminded him of his own kid.

The timer was almost up, but right as it struck 0:30 seconds Jx1dx1 materialized right beside them with a laugh. Immediately Guest jumped up and reflexively punch JX1DX1, Cappy and Brandon who were stunned immediately began dashing away. ".THIS.STORY.IS.NOT.MEANT.FOR.YOU.TO.INTERFERE." JX1DX1 Hissed after a few seconds of holding his face. "I'm not gonna let you go near the kids." Guest responded his fists balling up as he stood his ground.

As soon as JX1DX1 tried to walk past Guest, giving him a chance to leave him alone, Guest immediately Punched him again. Jx1dx1 shrugged it off a little bit this time before immediately slashing one of his claws across Guest's torso to abdomen. ".I.SAID.DO.NOT.INTERFERE." JX1DX1 repeated, before Guest could recover he slashed his throat with his claws. ".YOU.ARE.UTTERLY.PATHETIC." JX1DX1 growled before he approached Guest who was on the grass, trying to get up. ".YOU.ARE.LUCKY.I.AM.NOT.HERE.FOR.YOU." He said before he crushed Guests head into the ground.

Brandon and Cappy where now huddled behind a pillar underground. Silent, both of them listening for the sound of footsteps or really any sort of sound to indicate JX1DX1 near. Unfortunately for them, JX1DX1 Didn't need to walk to find them. From the other side of the pillar JX1DX1 materialized, carefully and quietly reaching his hand to the other side.

Cappy and Brandon kept quiet, they didn't hear anything, they didn't know he was unfortunately just behind the pillar they were hiding behind. Cappy immediately shrieked when he felt a red clawed hand grab onto his arm. Brandon jumped and before Brandon could grab Cappy he was pulled behind the Pillar before Jx1dx1 stepped out holding Cappy up like a doll. ".LUCKILY.FOR.YOU.I.M.NOT.HERE.TO.KILL.YOU." He said to Cappy before he almost playfully adjusted Cappy's hat to make sure it didn't fall off of his head "The hell do you mean!?" Cappy snapped, trying to kick JX1DX1, and failing. JX1DX1 ignored Cappy instead turning those cold eyes onto Brandon ".YOU.HOWEVER" he said leaning closer to Brandon. ".I.COULDN.T.CARE.WHAT.HAPPENS.TO.YOU." The clock stuck 0:00.

---

JX1DX1 was back in the Killers Cabin while holding Cappy in the air still. ".HERE.I.PROMISED.I.D.GET.HIM.BACK.FOR.YOU." He said walking over to Rochas who was still in his corner before roughly dropping Cappy in front of him. "OW- Rochas!" Cappy said before jumping up. "Cappy!" Rochas said smiling for the first time in a few hours. ".ANYWAY.GO.BUILD.A.SANDCASTLE.OR.SOMETHING.I.HAVE.BUSINESS.TO.ATTEND.TO." JX1DX1 said dismissively before turning away.

"..Where are we?" "Killer's cabin I think.." "well why are you here?" "I don't know. My head's fuzzy."

Chapter 9: Game of UNO

Summary:

Do not play uno at 3am (GONE WRONG) (THE SPECTER CALLED) **JX1DX1 THIS CHAPTER?**

Chapter Text

--- Shedletsky ---

"It's getting cramped in here." He commented as he looked at the 5 kids surround a table and play a game of UNO, Jacob, 1Dash, Spacewanderer, and Brandon. Jacob looked like he was about to cry because he had over 15 cards, 1Dash was having the time of his life because he had 2 cards left, Spacewanderer was just as happy as 1Dash because he was happy for his friend, IHasAFaceLULZ was furrowing his eyebrows trying to figure out how to possibly get rid of the 4 cards in his hand as fast as possible, and Brandon was just happy to be there.

"They seem to appear every round or two, it's sort of concerning." Brighteyes mumbled back to him as she came to stand next to him, glancing at the bucket of chicken wings he had in his arms before snatching one. "wha- hey..!" Shedletsky protested while frowning as he looked at the chicken wing Brighteyes stole from him "what? You'll be fine parting with ONE of them." Brightsky said with a soft chuckle as she bit into it.

"Please guys- stop.." Jacob sniffled as he picked up another 4 cards, "ehh, crybaby." 1Dash hissed as he placed his last card. "YES, I WIN, FUCK YAH!" 1Dash jumped up from his seat nearly kicking the table over. Spacewanderer giggled a bit, being a good sport about it. Brandon frowned and pouted out of disappointment. LULZ just sighed and dropped his cards.

"Are you SURE you kids don't know where that green one is? or the cowboy looking one..?" Shedletsky asked, approaching the group of kids. Jacob shook his head, Spacewanderer shook his head 1Dash shrugged "Nope, I do wonder if they're okay though. As much as they are sort of annoying." he remarked, LULZ said "nuhuh". Brandon stayed silent however. "..What about you?" Shedletsky asked looking at Brandon who looked downwards.

"..Brandon?" "I can't say.." Brandon mumbled. "Well, why not?" Shedletsky asked, kneeling downwards to get on eyelevel with Brandon. "It was... It.. kinda reminded me of my dad, I wouldn't... He wouldn't.." Brandon's words dissolved into mumbling still looking downwards. "Please Brandon?" Shedletsky pleaded, "we have to know if they're okay." "...red man, a scary red man with claws and a crown, he took Cappy, I don't know about Rochas though..." Brandon nearly whispered, still looking downwards. Meanwhile LULZ behind him nearly turned into a ghost.

"Weird smile, right?" LULZ asked dryly as he turned around Brandon to look at him. "uhm- um- mhm-" Brandon stuttered before nodding his head, to which LULZ just groaned and fell back onto his chair "fuck." he mumbled through his hands. "You know him?" Jacob asked looking over to LULZ. "Unfortunately." LULZ sighed out. "I don't know why he took Cappy though..." LULZ frowned as he took his hands off of his face and sat back up properly again. "Well, he's most focused on you, right?" 1Dash asked as he crossed his arms "Next available round we'll just use you as bait, easy."

"UH- HELL NO." LULZ snapped immediately trying to shut down the idea. "You don't know that guy, I don't know what he'll do if he ACTUALLY manages to get his claws on me, but I know it's gonna hurt!" "Well, do you see any other smart ideas?" 1Dash asked with a roll of his eyes behind his skeleton mask. "You'll be fine, plus this weird kid will shoot him if he hurts you." 1Dash said before pointing to Jacob who looked just as surprised as LULZ. "I never said that-" "well you did now."

"Please- just- it's a horrible idea." LULZ pleaded. "Again, you have a better idea?" 1Dash asked with a glare. "..." "Good, OI, weird ass owl guy!" 1Dash shouted at Two Time who was nearby on a chair reading a book about the spawn, to which they looked up from. "When's the next round?" "Soon, very soon." They said with an eerie smile.

--- JX1DX1---

JX1DX1's claws etched deep scars into the wall of his room, the wall splintering and cracking at the pressure of his claws. He was currently rather upset, to the misfortune of everybody. He hadn't been out or hadn't gotten his way and it was setting him off. Noah's out of his reach and he hated it. Glitched growls echoed through the room. He sighed for a moment after he calmed down, the next round was soon and he could only hope.

"This rounds killer is... JX1DX1"

As soon as his vision cleared up as best as possible he immediately started darting around The Tempest map. Completely ignoring 007n7, Chance, and Two Time and darting past them. He was only looking for LULZ at the moment. Until he could find a way into the Survivors Cabin, he'd work on making these rounds a living hell for Noah. It didn't matter how, didn't matter where, he'd make sure Noah wouldn't get a rest from hell.

As soon as he caught a glimpse of FaceLULZ's pot from around a corner he immediately dashed towards him. There he was, FaceLULZ, he turned around but his face was blank, not scared, not sad, not surprised, almost completely blank. JX1DX1 stopped in place, not because of surprise of anything, he couldn't move. LULZ turned the rest of himself.

JX1DX1's eyes narrowed for a moment before his claws clenched a bit out of boiling anger, why couldn't he move, he wanted to move, then he realized. ".YOU." JX1DX1 growled out before LULZ(?)'s body and limbs twisted and elongated, skin, clothes and shapes discolored into black.

פרחים

".WHY.ARE.YOU.HERE." JX1DX1 near shouted, if he could move he would very much be attacking the tall twitching black figure. It didn't respond, however a sharp whistle rang out through the map. ".ANSWER.ME.PEST." Flowers just stared at him before it morphed into a replica of him. ".FOR.FUN." It replicated his speech as well before it ran off, keeping JX1DX1 frozen there to shake and boil with anger.

--- The Specter---

Meanwhile while The Specter was observing the maps they raised an eyebrow at the appearance of Flowers, they never let it in here, But then again, it seemed to be acting as the killer in place of JX1DX1, it was playing by the rules, and hey, a new killer, while The Specter had already had somebody in mind for the next new killer, turns out Flowers had another opinion. They applauded a little when the round ended, satisfied with it.

Before they heard a whistle. They tilted their head for a moment before Flowers appeared in front of them in it's usual form. Silence was exchanged between them, usually only the Specter could get here in their personal pocket dimension where they lived. The Specter thought for a moment before they shrugged, Flowers could do what they wanted, they came here somehow, but as long as it played by the rules, then they didn't care what would happen with it. "Killers cabin please." The Specter said politely with a smile before Flowers disappeared again.

--- Cappy ---

The Killers Cabin with in near Shambles at the moment, causing Rochas and Cappy to hide inside of Rochas' room. 1x1x1x1 was shouting, Noli was glitching so violently he could barely understand them at this point, JX1DX1 was going ballistic at the mere sight of Flowers, Mafioso was trying to calm down the brewing fight, c00lkidd, Bluudud, and pr3typriincess where also hiding in their rooms and Flowers was unaffected by the whole thing.

Rochas was hiding in the corner of his room with Cappy attempting to comfort him. Rochas' condition had gotten worse, the wood and bark grew over his skin across his entire right hand and Cappy hated it, he hated seeing his friend deteriorate, he hated seeing Rochas seem so scared or jumpy.

He wished he could go back to being a normal kid in Argentina.

--- Jacob ---

When they got back into the survivors cabin he practically collapsed, remembering that thing. When he tried to shoot JX1DX1 he just, morphed and shifted. "...Hey, LULZ was it? Can Jx1... Can he shift his appearance or something...?" Jacob asked with a sigh. "Um, not that I can remember." IHasAFaceLULZ said raising an eyebrow.

"Did he do something...?" "He shifted and morphed when I tried to shoot him, so I couldn't get a clear shot." "..Odd, he wasn't acting himself either." "Is there a chance it wasn't him?"

"...I don't know."

Chapter Text

--- IHasAFaceLULZ ---

"Seriously, you sure he doesn't do that?" 1Dash asked as they were all around the same table as the hour before in which they were playing UNO. "He wasn't focused on me, and he can't move like that. If me and him are in the same round, he's definitely targeting me, but he didn't that round. I don't think that round was really JX1DX1." LULZ answered with a sigh. "When's the next round?" LULZ asked as he turned around to look at Guest who was trying to get the TV to show something other than a baby panda. "mmmh, I don't know, the usual timer isn't here." He said with a shrug.

LULZ sighed and looked downwards before he shook his head. "And still no sign of Cappy or Rochas?" he asked with a frown "No.." "nuhuh" "nope" "unfortunately not.." LULZ worriedly fiddled with his fingers "Hey, since the timer is gone maybe we can play something...?" Jacob asked timidly "I'd like to know where you all are from." 1Dash said, leaning his chair like a bored 8 year old. "Like you, why do you have a whole ass shotgun." 1Dash said as he dismissively pointed at Jacob to which Jacob looked downwards and raised his shoulders defensively.

"It's.. it's a long story..." Jacob mumbled looking downwards. "Well we have possibly all day." 1Dash shrugged "C'mon, tell us." "No-... no I don't.. I don't want to..." Jacob mumbled again, his voice getting quieter. "Stop prying 1Dash, some of us don't want to share." LULZ said, trying to step in between 1Dash and Jacob before Jacob started possibly crying.

"...Fine, I'll back off." 1Dash said after a few moments, shrugging. "Anyway, uh, UNO again..?" Spacewanderer suggested slowly. "I don't feel like it.." Brandon sighed "I miss Ozo." "...Who's Ozo?" LULZ asked after a second or two. "Oh! He's a good friend! Very good friend!" Brandon said his face lighting up "I hope he still plays Heli-wars!" he continued, clapping his hands excitedly. "I kinda miss Heli-wars with him... I hope he can sundown with me one-day.." "What's 'sundown'?" Spacewanderer asked curiously

"Oh! So, basically, Sundowning is when you go and meet The Goods!" Brandon said happily, nearly beaming when he got to talk about it. "It's almost time for me to sundown!" Brandon chirped excitedly "and, how do you meet the goods?" asked Jacob cautiously. "Oh! Well, my dad tells me not to worry about it, but that's okay! I'll find out one day!" Brandon giggled slightly nervously. Their conversation was shut down by a few quick knocks on the door of the cabin. Everybody in the general room looked towards the door in surprise.

"...Is.. anybody supposed to be outside...?" Jacob asked quietly. "..No." Answered Guest after a moment, his expression hardening when the knocks came again. He carefully stepped towards the door before opening it. Glaring at the two people in the open door.

"Hello? Um, we uh, don't know where we are..." Said a nervous girl with bright pink bows on the sides of her head and holding a skateboard with slightly ripped jeans, while a nervous boy with a builders-club hat, plaid jacket, and fingerless gloves stood awkwardly to the side. "I'm Dragondudes3, and this is 4Amanda4, we kinda just.. found our way here.." Dragondudes piped up, walking over to stand next to Amanda. Guest raised an eyebrow before thinking of what to do, they looked rather harmless but then again, c00lkidd also looked harmless.

"Hey, Jacob, go check out the rooms and see if there's one or two for anybody named Amanada or Dragondudes." Guest called out to Jacob on random while keeping his eyes firmly on the duo of kids on the deck of the cabin. "Why would we have our names on a room...?" Asked Amanada confusedly "Welcome to Hell, you've been Forsaken. You'll be thrown into rounds again and again to either survive or die, I'm being blunt here because I not only don't know you, but also I'm tired of explaining this for the 6th time in the last few days." Guest growled exasperatedly with a small roll of his eyes.

"Yah there's a Dragondudes3 and 4Amanada4 here!" Jacob called out after a few moments of silence from Guests end, Guest's face softened before he relaxed "welcome in I guess" he said with a shrug, the switch up was a little insane but he gestured to the inside of the cabin. To which they both walked in with extremely concerned looks. They both walked over to the Table where all the kids where at "ooh! New friends! Hello!" Brandon said jumping up before grabbing Dragondude's hand and shook it before moving onto Amanda to shake hers.

"Welcome to our table." 1Dash said dryly as he slightly rolled his eyes, "I'm 1DashLeaves, That's Spacewanderer545, they're Brandon and Jacob and IHasAFaceLULZ is in his room for now. You?" He asked as he pointed to everybody while saying their names. "We have two more, but they're lost right now." He added after a moment. "uh, we're.. I'm Dragondude3, and she's 4amanda4." Dragondude said after a solid moment of staring "Okay- hold on, what did that guy mean?" asked 4amanda4 as she pointed back at Guest1337 who was back at his spot.

"So." Spacewanderer sighed as he got ready. "We're all thrown into a randomly generated team against a randomly generated killer and hope we survive, that's about it." "Do you feel pain still...?" "Yes." "Oh.."

Right as Dragondude was about to speak up again they all heard a sharp terrified scream come from one of the Personal Rooms of the cabin, to which all of them turned their head too.

Chapter 11: ...A Horrible Tragedy!

Chapter Text

Dragondude and Spacewanderer zipped to the sound of the scream and slammed the door open, it was IHasAFaceLULZ's room because of course it was, The room was lit up by a harsh red computer light and LULZ was on the other side of the room from the computer, eyes fearfully staring at the all red screen. "What happened!?" Shrieked Brandon who was right behind Dragondude as he came sliding into the room.

Brandon looked around the room, looking for any obvious signs of danger but to him, there were none. "...LULZ?" He asked before looking back at LULZ, "what happened?" he asked calmer and more confused. LULZ stared at the red screen for a few more moments before he calmed down "Sorry, I.. Bad memories." He mumbled before he got up to his feet, "wait- who are you?" He asked as he looked at Dragondude who had practically kicked the door down. "Oh- um, my name is Dragondude." He said a bit embarrassed from having burst in like that when he assumed something bad was happening, but it was just a false alarm.

FaceLULZ sighed before he looked back at the computer "Sorry for scaring you guys, it's just, I don't really like red screens much..." he mumbled out, before he walked up to the computer and reached out to turn it off. At least, before the screen flickered to show JX1DX1 to absolutely nobody's fucking surprise. LULZ jumped back again but this time without much of the absolutely terrified screaming.

".HELLO.NOAH." came the painful voice of JX1DX1 before LULZ violently hit the computer with his Pan, causing it to fall off the desk and land on its side, "LEAVE ME ALONE." LULZ shouted, holding the pan incase he had to hit JX1DX1 again. ".OUCH." JX1DX1 nearly yelped as the computer got almost smashed by the pan and fell to the floor. "Who's that?" Dragondude asked after a second, with everybody else behind him. "JX1DX1, He wont leave me alone, and hates seeing me happy, I guess." LULZ hissed, refusing to take his eyes off of the computer. ".OH.NOAH.DO.YOU.HAVE.NEW.FRIENDS.("?")" JX1DX1 chimed in as he looked at Dragondude, Brandon, and Spacewanderer, before LULZ could reply JX1DX1laughed ".WORD.OF.ADVICE.DO.NOT.INTERFERE.WITH.THIS.STORY.THAT.NONE.OF.YOU.ARE.A.PART.OF."

JX1DX1's claws shot out of the screen with another few laughs, the computer's glass breaking and the general thing short circuiting into sparks and smoke as the creature clawed its way out of the computer, without leaving much room for reaction immediately lunging for IHasAFaceLULZ. LULZ shrieked in fear as he stumbled backwards before JX1DX1 crashed into him. The others sort of stared in shock as they saw the thing unfold, but not Amanda, Amanda immediately wound back and full force smacked JX1DX1 with her Skateboard. Causing him to stumble back away from her and LULZ out of recoil.

LULZ immediately scrambled to his feet before darting off, leaving the others to look at JX1DX1 who was holding his face very pathetically because of how much the skateboard scraped his face and also smashed it. ".YOU.BRAT." JX1DX1 growled as he glared at Amanda. "What is your problem?" She asked with a raised eyebrow as she looked at JX1DX1. ".I.SAID.DO.NOT.INTERFERE.WHAT.PART.OF.THAT.DO.YOU.NOT.UNDERSTAND." He snapped yelling at Amanda.

Once JX1DX1 got up he nearly threw himself at 4amanda4 who quickly blocked his claws with her Skateboard. Amanda yelped and kept trying to block being mauled by the vibrantly eyebleeding creature, having a few scratches here and there where she couldn't block. "Get off new friend!" shouted another voice and it was Brandon coming rushing back with a green brick, while the bricks weren't heavy in the slightest as they could be hung up on the wall easily, but green keeps things clean right?

Brandon swung the brick at JX1DX1 which only really averted his attention. His eyes narrowed as he glared at Brandon. ".YOU." he hissed before his sharp claws picked Brandon up by the back of his hoodie, completely dropping trying to get at 4Amanda4's throat. ".DON.T.YOU.GET.IT.OR.ARE.YOU.JUST.STUPID.("?")" He snapped before he yanked the brick from brandon's hand and easily snapped it in two like a twig in one hand ".THE.THINGS.YOU.BELIEVE.ARE.STUPID.AT.BEST.("Green keeps things clean!").("I'll meet the goods one day").THEY.RE.FAIRY.TALES." he shouted in Brandon's face. ".YOU.RE.FATHER.IS.A.FOOL.AND.HE.S.MAKING.YOU.INTO.ONE.TOO.THERE.IS.NO.GOODS.THERE.IS.NOTHING.ABOUT.THE.COLOR.GREEN.THAT.KEEPS.THINGS.CLEAN." JX1DX1 snarled before throwing Brandon full force into the nearest wall, causing Brandon to make a cry of pain, tears already falling down his cheeks. ".PATHETIC.CHILD."

4amanda4's Skateboard suddenly came bashing into JX1DX1's ankles causing JX1DX1 to fall to the ground again, Dragondude was already rushing to try and see if Brandon was okay. "You two! I don't know what you guys do but for the love of god stop standing there!" 4amanda4 shouted and pointed at Spacewanderer and 1Dash who where basically in stunned shock. Spacewanderer sprinted off and 1Dash ran the other way. ".I.AM.NOT.EVEN.HERE.FOR.YOU." JX1DX1 hissed as he kicked 4Amanda4's feet out from under her, causing her to come crashing to the ground as JX1DX1 got up and kicked her again. ".YOU.RE.LUCKY.I.M.BUSY." he growled before he ran off, with a little bit of a limp.

Shedletsky, Guest, Chance and Two Time were waiting for him unfortunately. once got out of the room he was confronted by the sentinels of the cabin. LULZ was hiding behind Guest who was a few steps back from Shedletsky and Two Time. Right as JX1DX1 turned the corner to get into the general room he was hit by a sharp glaring pain in his back to which he fell over again. Two Time twirled their dagger with a smile on their face as they watched the blood drip from their dagger. "Got him." They said sweetly before JX1DX1 suddenly disappeared from where he was, to Two Time's slight surprise and dismay.

JX1DX1's claws immediately snatched LULZ from behind all of them holding the kid close to him so if they tried to shot, stab or punch they might hit LULZ. ".I.M.ONLY.HERE.FOR.THE.KID." He said like it was the simplest thing ever before LULZ started shrieking and screaming bloody murder. ".SHUT.UP.YOU.WORTHLESS.MOTHERLESS.CHILD." JX1DX1 snarled out of annoyance before he was violently hit with the pot again. "Bring up my fucking mother one more time I dare you!" LULZ snapped, his voice shaky with fear and anger

".THIS.IS.FAR.TOO.MUCH.WORK.FOR.A.BRAT.LIKE.YOU." JX1DX1 groaned with a roll of his eyes looking reproachfully at LULZ who only glared back. "Then just leave me alone!" ".I.DON.T.FEEL.LIKE.IT." he snapped back. ".THEY.LL.BE.HERE.SOON.THEN.YOU.LL.UNDERSTAND." JX1DX1 continued, they weren't sure exactly who he was talking to, maybe all of them.

--- 1DashLeaves ---

He immediately dashed out the door, no, not because of fear or cowardness, for once, but because he KNEW there would be something out here to protect himself. The grass was moist in the night air and it seemed so peaceful. There were soft crickets chirping, fireflies flitting in and out of the shadows. As he stood up to make his way to the shed for something, anything, he noticed the crickets quieting down, the soft hum of the forest around the cabin quieting into a deafening silence, only broken by the soft distant murmurs of the yells inside the cabin.

The word seemed to suddenly shift, the colors drained from his vision, everything gone greyscale. The greens and pastel yellows of the bugs and forest dimmed to a depressing white-grey-black greyscale. He blinked hard a few times before rubbing his eyes, trying to get the world to change back but it became increasingly obvious it wasn't. The forest rustled, something bigger was coming through.

1Dash immediately ran for the shed before slamming the door shut, looking at the shed from the inside it was a normal shed, nothing much, just general tools. But he heard footsteps outside the shed door.

"...Aren't the stars pretty tonight...?"

1Dash's throat went dry, he didn't recognize that voice "Who.. who are you?" he asked hushedly through the flimsy wooden door. "My name is Ace." The answer was simple, as was the tone of voice, he seemed way too calm for any of this. "Ace..." 1Dash echoed before he slowly opened the door of the shed to peak out to look at the person outside of it. They looked okay, their clothes had turned greyscale too but that was alright, his had too because of the weird vision affect, but what made him slam the door shut was the fact that they had no face.

"You have no face." 1Dash mumbled. "...That's fine." Ace said in a dream-like voice. "The stars look pretty tonight." Ace continued "You should come see them, Look At The Stars" "You're creeping me out dude- I-.." 1Dash mumbled, his throat drying up faster than he could get words out. "Please, come look at the stars." Ace insisted before trying to gently pull the door open, to which 1Dash just froze up, he let it happen, he let Ace pull the door open.

1Dash's face was half hidden by the mask so Ace couldn't see the full extent of 1Dash's fear, but it was there. "Please, Look At The Stars" Ace said as he held out his hand to 1Dash. 1Dash froze for a few more moments before he tried to shake his head, but Ace grabbed his hand anyway. "Look at them." He continued as he led 1Dash away from the shed, out and under the open black sky. "I don't-" "Yes you do, they're pretty I promise." 1Dash tried to tug away for a moment but Ace didn't give up his grip as he nearly dragged 1Dash out.

"See? The stars." Ace said as he looked up and pointed up at the stars. 1Dash slowly looked up at the stars, they were beautiful, somehow the night sky looked better this way. "...The Stars" 1Dash echoed, his stress melting after a few moments. "They're so pretty.."

Chapter 12: You are Alone.

--- Spacewanderer545 ---

Meanwhile, Spacewanderer bolted to his room, slamming the door shut, he leaned against the door as he caught his breath. Opening his eyes to his familiar room, the plastic stars stuck onto the ceiling, the different planet themed things scattered around the room. Spacewanderer paused for a moment after he swore he heard something, but then again, there was a huge fucking fight happening literally next door. Space sighed calming down, maybe he'd wait in his room until things calmed down.

There was a small knock on the window.

Spacewanderer's eyes opened again and his eyes shot to the window, the colors turned greyscale, his red balloon turning a melancholic shade of grey along with the decorations in his room. The Window however, the window was different. somebody was gently tapping on the window's glass, to Space's utter horror. The man moved into frame and it was a large knight in what seemed like pure black armor with red rims, most of his body was covered by a black cloak which seemed to be a window to the void itself if you looked in.

The Knight knocked at the window again, staring Spacewanderer straight in the face as he did it, or, what could be presumably staring him straight in the face, you couldn't really see the creatures eyes. the creature then disappeared to Space's temporary relief. However it appeared instead right in front of him, causing Space to make a shriek of surprise and slight fear as he scrambled out of the way of a Black and Red sword from slicing him to bits.

The Knight turned its head slowly to Space, it's voice plain yet powerful. "You are Alone." it said like it monotonously before it quickly nearly beheaded Spacewanderer by running faster than thought possible in that attire at Spacewanderer with the sword in place to slice his head clean off. Space again quickly tried to duck out of the way and only managed to do so by the skin of his teeth. Spacewanderer scrambled upwards and grasped at the door handle before desperately throwing it open. Stumbling into the main room which consisted of JX1DX1 trying to keep LULZ and the Sentinels from murdering him.

Spacewanderer managed to stumble and nearly fall out the door of his room and got to the other side of the room before he looked back and saw Content Deleted in the doorway of his room. "You." Content Deleted pointed his sword at JX1DX1 who was at this point strangling LULZ to get him to stop moving so much. JX1DX1's hateful gaze traveled over to Content Deleted. ".WHAT.DO.YOU.WANT.NOW.I.M.BUSY." he growled out before he made a hiss of pain when LULZ bit one of his claws. "You are a liar." Content Deleted said in the monotonous voice. ".SHE.S.IN.THE.OTHER.ROOM.YOU.STUPID.IDIOT." JX1DX1 snapped before he just dropped LULZ to the ground without warning. ".THERE.IS.THAT.BETTER.YOU.CHILDISH.PEST.("?")" JX1DX1 snarled at LULZ who was recovering from suddenly being dropped.

Content Deleted's helmet turned to look at the other room where Jacob was pale as a statue standing in the doorway. One little shove and he was stumbling out of the way in a daze. Content Delete entered the room only to look Straight at Amanda who was checking up on Brandon with Dragondude. "Liar." He spoke up which made Amanda jump and swivel around in a look of dismay and dread as she spotted Content Deleted in the doorway. "Not him..." she whispered shakily. "Who's that...?" Dragondude asked looking confused as he looked between 4Amanda4 and Content Deleted

"..I don't know what or who he is either." Amanda answered, watching as Content Deleted took step after step after step towards her, Brandon, and Dragondude. Suddenly a bang rang out through the relatively quiet air, the bang was loud and loud enough to make Amanda's ears ring and the cabin to jump. Jacob shot Content Deleted, only, Content Deleted was almost nearly unaffected by it. "You are Alone." Content Deleted said as he turned around from looking at 4Amanda4 to Jacob.

Jacob started trembling slightly before Content Deleted smashed and stuck the sword deep into the wooden wall beside where Jacob was. "You are a liar." It continued as it leaned in. "I- I'm not a liar-" "Liar." Jacob's voice got smaller and smaller as Content Deleted repeated the word Liar. After a solid few moments Content Deleted suddenly and easily picked up Jacob and ripped the sword from the wooden wall, about to strike the whimpering almost sobbing mess of a kid before something else hit him, a wrench.

He looked over and saw Amanda standing up, having just thrown the wrench. "I'm your target, not him." she stated before Jacob was dropped to the floor like a worthless sack of potatoes

--- Shedletsky ---

".WHEN.DID.YOU.EVER.START.ACTUALLY.STANDING.UP.FOR.YOURSELF.("?")" JX1DX1 asked as LULZ still continued to struggle and fight. ".AS.FOR.YOU." JX1DX1 shifted his attention and eyes to Shedletsky, Chance, Guest and Two Time. ".YOU.AREN.T.INVOLVED.IN.THIS." "How many times are you going to repeat those words?" asked Shedletsky who was 1 hair away from just stabbing this pathetic thing. ".####.IT.I.M.TIRED.OF.THIS." JX1DX1 growled in exasperation before the lights of the cabin flickered and went out. leaving all of them in complete darkness, but not deafness.

They heard muffled noises and scuttles before the lights automatically turned back on to reveal nothing. Not an open window, not an open door. However there was a soft knock at the door, he had remembered seeing 1Dash sprint out the door earlier so he assumed it was him as he walked towards the door. He opened the door and jumped back at the unnerving sight of a kid with no face. The place had turned greyscale earlier but he assumed it was just another visual affect of the specter to mess with them The kid looked at Shedletsky blankly before saying in the calmest voice "Come look at the stars."

Shedletsky was about to step back and close to door before 1Dash appeared and stood beside the kid. "Yeah, the stars are pretty." he added. "You kids are creeping me out." Shedletsky said slowly. "1Dash who is that..?" Shedletsky asked, still slowly. "His name is Ace." 1Dash answered plainly. "Where's Spacewanderer, he should look at the stars too." 1Dash asked before inviting himself in the cabin.

Spacewanderer was currently huddled in a corner of the main room, but jumped when he saw 1Dash "Dude!- I almost got stabbed!" he exclaimed as he rushed over to 1Dash and grabbed his shoulder only to freeze a little. "You're.. really cold." he mumbled before he looked up at 1Dash. "That's fine, but Space you should really come look at the stars." 1Dash said plainly before brushing taking his hand in a surprising grip and nearly pulling Space towards the door.

But Spacewanderer stopped him, Space stood his ground a little, "1Dash... why are you so cold?" he asked a small expression of worry crossing his face. "It doesn't matter, just come look at the stars." 1Dash answered before trying to pull Spacewanderer again. "1Dash, you're acting odd-" "It doesn't matter. Look at the stars." 1Dash tugged Spacewanderer into taking a small step towards the door before Spacewanderer started pulling away. "No, 1Dash, answer me." "Why wont you understand that it just doesn't matter? What matters are the stars." 1Dash hissed with annoyance before he grabbed Spacewanderers wrist and pulled and shoved him out the door onto the deck.

"Ow- 1Dash!- Stop it that hurts!" Spacewanderer shouted out, the grip on Spacewanderer's wrist probably strong enough to cause bruises, especially because of how he was pulling it while 1Dash was trying to get him down the stairs. "Just look at the stars Space." 1Dash said, ignoring the fact that Spacewanderer was very clearly in pain and protesting loudly about it. "1Dash! I don't want to fucking look at the stars! What's wrong with you!?" Spacewanderer shouted before he was borderline shoved down the stairs onto the grassy yard in front of the cabin. "Yes you do. Everybody should look at the stars." 1Dash said as he walked down the steps.

"I'm not going to look at the damn stars!" Spacewanderer snapped before he made sure to avoid tilting his head upwards at all costs. No, he wouldn't look at the stars, not until 1Dash answered him at least. "You will look at the stars." 1Dash said as he stood in front of Spacewanderer expectantly. "Look at them Spacewanderer." "No."

"Look at the stars, Space."
"No."
"Look, at, the, stars."
"No."
"Why wont you look at the stars? Just look at them."
"No."
"Spacewanderer. You will look at the stars, everybody will look at the stars."
"I'm not going to look at the stars."

1Dash suddenly nearly picked up Spacewanderer by the front of his shirt. "You're being stubborn. LOOK, AT, THE, STARS." 1Dash nearly shouted into Spacewanderer's face before he dropped Spacewanderer again. "Seriously 1Dash- what the fuck has gotten into you!?" Spacewanderer snapped back. Still refusing to look up at the night sky.

"Just look Space. Stop being difficult." 1Dash insisted as Ace appeared to stand beside 1Dash. "Who even are you!?" Spacewanderer shouted as he kept looking downwards but being able to see Ace's shoes and pants. "Look at the stars." Ace simply said before gently nudging Spacewanderer with his foot. "Look" he repeated. "No!"

Right as Ace was about to kick Spacewanderer harder this time, they seemed to disappear, like they popped out of existence. The world returned to color. The tears that were barely kept back started the flood down his cheeks as he looked up only to see nobody. No 1Dash, no Ace, and no special stars.

--- Dragondudes3 ---

Dragondude watched as Amanda was thrown around like a rag doll. The tall knight-like figure only seemed to say two things, which was "You are a Liar" and "You are Alone" which did get somewhat annoying after awhile. Amanda was trying her best to keep up with the figure despite her literally only having a skateboard. The Skateboard didn't block attacks well so she'd just gotten used to trying to dodge the giant sword.

"Why wont you just leave me alone!?" Amanda cried as she wound back and swung the Skateboard at the figure before jumping out of the way of the black and red sword. "You are alone." it responded dryly and emotionlessly before the Sword came crashing down on the wood beside Amanda. "I'm not a Liar!" Amanda snapped as she hit Content Deleted with the skateboard again.

Content Deleted suddenly kicked her feet out from under her and right as he was about to stab right through her like a skewer, he vanished from existence, like he was never there.

Chapter 13: Meet Your Victim

Chapter Text

=== Brandonworks ===

Brandon was rubbing the tears from his eyes after the encounter, Dragondude was trying to console him but his voice faded into the background. Each tear he rubbed away another one came. He hugged his knees to his chest before just sobbing into them.

"...Kid...?" Echoed Dragondude as he looked at Brandon sobbing into his knees. "Is something hurting?" Dragondude continued, unsure what to do as he looked at the sobbing child. Brandon just weakly shook his head as he continued to wail into his hands and knees. "Was it.. something that red guy said...?" Dragondude asked after a moment. Brandon continued to sob before he nodded his head weakly.

"Kid-.. I don't... I don't know you, but what he said probably wasn't true" Dragondude tried to comfort Brandon as he just sobbed and cried. Somewhere, some part of Brandon knew it was true what JX1DX1 had said. But he couldn't let go of the idea of it being true, it HAD BEEN true for so long, letting go seemed so... scary. He hugged his knees tighter as he cried harder.

"Hey- where's FaceLulz?" Asked Amanda as she poked her head back into the room since she already got back up to look for the others. "Or Dash..?" right as she continued to the "Or Dash?" part a violently sobbing Spacewanderer came staggering back into the cabin, causing everybody to jump back slightly. "Space...?" echoed Jacob from his corner as he looked at Spacewanderer. "Are... you um... alright?" "No!- where's- did anybody see 1Dash!? Anywhere!? I need to check on him!" Space managed to shriek out through his sobs.

Everybody was either bruised, sobbing, or both.

=== JX1DX1 ===

Right as the lights flickered off he dissolved into red messy lines and glitches with LULZ in his hands. However instead of going to where he wanted to go, which was back to the Killer's Cabin he found himself somewhere different. Somewhere else. Unknowingly to him he was in the Specter's personal pocket dimension. "So, JX1DX1 was it." Asked a voice that seemed to come from the mist itself. ".WHAT.DOES.IT.MATTER." Answered JX1DX1 having no clue who he was talking to. "You broke a few rules just now." Came the voice again before it materialized ever so slightly into the shape of a tall man with a hat before dissipating into mist.

".SO.WHAT.WHO.ARE.YOU.TO.ORDER.ME.TO.FOLLOW.RULES." JX1DX1 hissed still holding LULZ like a diseased child. "Well, peasant; I am The Specter, your Host." The Mist took the form of a man bowing for a moment before it fizzled out of existence again. "IHasAFaceLULZ was chosen to be part of my games, you were a... buy one get one free sort of deal you see." The Specter went on before LULZ spoke up "hey wait- why the hell am I here!?" "None of your concern." The Specter flicked his hand dismissively at LULZ before he continued.

"You JX1DX1 are a Killer, you aren't supposed to be in the Survivors cabin like you just were, do you see the problem here?" Asked the Specter like it was explaining something obvious to a toddler. ".CAN.I.KEEP.THIS...DISAPPOINTMENT.("?")" Asked JX1DX1 after a moment before holding out LULZ. "NO- YOU CANNOT!?" LULZ exclaimed before he started struggling again. ".SHUT.IT." JX1DX1 hissed before taking one hand off of him to bonk his head, causing the pot to fall over his eyes. "Uh, No." The Specter said before its fingers flicked and LULZ was out of JX1DX1's hands instead kept safely in a cage a few yards away. "Hey- What the hell!?" LULZ shouted from his bird cage.

"JX1DX1, you and dear LULZ here are gonna switch places for just ONE round, got that? maybe if you get beat to death by this depressed teenager you've tormented for so long that'll teach you a little something!" The Specter clapped with glee before JX1DX1 made the best most disgusted face you'd ever see on him. ".I.AM.NOT.LETTING.THAT.HAPPEN." He hissed before The Specter hushed him like a disorderly kid. "None of your Abilities work here. I only allowed them to because I so foolishly thought you'd play along like the rest of them." The Specter continued as JX1DX1 tried to poof away from The Specter's Personal Pocket Dimension and failed.

1Dashleaves and Xx4ceOfSpadesxX materialized into existence in the fog together, still both Greyscale as they looked around slightly astonished. "You two." The Specter turned its attention to Ace and Dash "Luckily you aren't PERMANENTLY like this." The Specter commented on 1Dash before turning its 'sights' to Ace. "You however, I suppose you were an accident. I've been negligent recently, so don't expect to find yourself there ever again. It was just a small slip up." The Specter grumbled at the last part, if it could roll it's eyes it would. "However I LOVE sadness so I'll keep you like this for a little." The Specter commented on 1Dash before turning around to find that Content Deleted had materialized too.

"You, I would LOVE for you to not try and Kill my Survivors when it's their breaktime, thanks?" The Specter asked as it looked at Content Deleted. who just tilted its helmet. "Plus the whole thing was JX1DX1's idea wasn't it? It's only fair he gets the punishment." The Specter shrugged before it looked back at JX1DX1 who just growled and rolled his eyes. ".JUST.GIVE.ME.NOAH." JX1DX1 grumbled. "No, learn to live without torturing somebody, for once." The Specter said firmly and dismissively.

"So, here's the plan for you rulebreakers, 1Dashleaves and Xx4ceOfSpadesxX, I'll keep you two just the way you are for the time being. Content Deleted you're on THIN ice. And JX1DX1 you and IHasAFaceLULZ are going to switch places for a solid round. M'kay?" asked The Specter without waiting for anybody to respond. LULZ, 1Dash, Ace and Content Deleted were snapped into the Killer's Cabin and JX1DX1 was thrown right back into the Survivors cabin.

As JX1DX1 was thrown back into the Survivors cabin he found himself in the middle of a room of sobbing crying, angry and bruised teenagers who were currently discussing where their missing friends were. "You!" Dragondude shouted as he pointed at JX1DX1 before nearly throwing a whole ass wrench at him, JX1DX1 quickly ducked out of the way before darting away from most of the kids as they immediately swiveled their head to look at him. "He took LULZ where is he!?" Amanda asked as she glared a little at JX1DX1.

Oh yeah, JX1DX1 knew for a fact this single round was going to be fucking hell for him. As soon as Brandon looked up from being relatively calmed down he immediately being Hyperventilating again and sobbing to which Dragondude ran over to him. ".OH.COME.ON.I.M.NOT.THAT.SCARY." Hissed JX1DX1 as he rolled his eyes at Brandon. ".SOMEBODY.TELL.HIM.TO.GROW.UP." He continued before he was violently smacked with a skateboard to which he crumpled to the ground, usually it didn't hurt at all but it seemed he had a normal pain tolerance now. He could practically hear the Specter chuckling. ".#######.BRAT." JX1DX1 snapped out as he looked up from the floor to see Amanda who just rolled her eyes. "Where's LULZ?" she asked completely ignoring anything else. ".HOW.DO.I.SAY.THIS." JX1DX1 said after a moment as he sat back up

"Say it." Jacob said as he loaded the shotgun. ".FINE.SO.THE.MIST.TOOK.HIM.AND.SAID.HE.S.GOING.TO.BE.A.KILLER.FOR.A.ROUND.BECAUSE.I.BROKE.THE.RULES." JX1DX1 spat out before crossing his arms. ".IS.THAT.GOOD.ENOUGH.("?")" He added before Dragondude really did throw a wrench straight at his head to which he barely missed. ".IF.I.COULD.KILL.YOU.I.WOULD." He warned Dragondude as he shot a venomous glare at him.

JX1DX1 didn't even get a temporary room, if he wanted to sleep, which he didn't, he'd have to either sleep outside, on a chair, or on the couch. He HATED this experience. It hurt his damn ego more than ever. He was a KING, and forced to do THIS? THIS? Insanity. He wanted to rip his metaphorical hair out. Hopefully, after this, things would return to normal, he just had to do whatever damaged his ego least.

=== IHasAFaceLULZ ===

LULZ on the other hand was ecstatic to get the chance to beat the shit out of JX1DX1 without any consequences whatsoever, However when he found himself in the Killer Cabin he jumped and shrieked at the sight of at least 5 killers sitting around the table and seemingly waiting for a round to start. Noli was first to notice and immediately he appeared beside LULZ. "You! I've [Heard th-] of you [BEFORE THE SHO-]" Noli said before poking Lulz to which he recoiled in slight disgust. "You're [All alone on a late night] You're the kid that [CLOWN] was talking about" Noli said before dancing around LULZ a little before he stopped. "What was your n-n-NAME kid?" He asked leaning towards LULZ as the jester-like killer tilted its head.

"I'm... I'm IHasAFaceLULZ" he said slowly while leaning away from Noli. "Lulz...?" asked a soft voice from the corner to which Rochas peaked out from the shadows before a weak smile crossed his tired face. "Rochas!?" LULZ asked in almost alarm as he looked at Rochas before Cappy waved at him also. "Holy- what are you two doing here? Is this where you've been???!" LULZ asked as he rushed over to them "Yeah, Rochas... Isn't doing well." Cappy said before he looked back over to Rochas whom sighed and leaned back against the wall once again. "I feel so.. tired." Rochas mumbled before his eyes lit up again.

"1Dash?" He asked as he sat up again to look at 1Dash who had just appeared with Ace. "1Dash you're here!" He called out weakly yet happily before 1Dash turned to look at him coldly, colder than usual "You should have Looked At The Stars Rochas." He said simply before him and Ace walked out the door of the Cabin. "...Dash...?" Rochas echoed crestfallen. "Why was he grey- is everything alright? what have I missed...?" Asked Rochas worriedly as he looked back over to LULZ who made a small sigh. "A bit... But, I'm here for now, do you.. have anything to say to the others? For y'know, when I get back?" LULZ asked Rochas as he looked over at him "...Just tell them I'm okay for now." Rochas said after a moment.

Chapter Text

=== JX1DX1 ===

JX1DX1 was heavily annoyed by having to be stuffed into a corner for the time being. Two Time and Chance were beside him to make sure he didn't slaughter anybody even though he physically couldn't because of what the specter did. He growled a bit as Two Time poked his shoulder with their dagger for the 4rd time in the last hour. ".DO.IT.AGAIN.AND.I.LL.THROW.YOU.ACROSS.THE.ROOM." JX1DX1 grumbled as Two Time cocked their head. "You look weird" they commented as they looked at his JX1DX1's face. ".I.DON.T.CARE.WHAT.I.LOOK.LIKE." JX1DX1 responded as he rolled his eyes as Two Time continued to stare their owlish eyes at him.

Chance on the other hand was busy flipping his coin, heads, tails, tails, heads, tails, they spun their gun around one finger as he smirked. "You ever bet something before?" Chance asked as his eyes flicked to the annoyed JX1DX1. ".NO.AND.I.DON.T.PLAN.TO." JX1DX1 answered plainly as he kept looking straight ahead. "Aww, c'mon, no sense of fun?" Chance almost teased before JX1DX1 swiftly snatched his golden coin and threw it across the cabin. "Wha- Hey! My Coin!" Chance cried as he jumped after it.

JX1DX1's smaller little demon-tail lashed a bit out of annoyance as he watched Chance scuttle away to grab his lucky coin. JX1DX1's eyes wandered over to the clock, just a few more minutes until the absolute worst round of his life, then he could go back. The other kids were exchanging glares at him while they whispered to each other, he didn't care however. Why should he care if some stupid kids didn't like him.

"This Rounds killer is... IHasAFaceLULZ"

=== IHasAFaceLULZ ===

While in the killers cabin he was uneasy. Everything felt so Hostile... He mostly just kept near Rochas and Cappy. Mafioso's eyes glared at LULZ as he stuck to Rochas's side, he remembered that kid, and he didn't like that kid either, but at the same time, he was too busy to care about some random kid that hit him with a pan one time, so he got over it.

"S-S-S-SAY KID!" Noli stuttered out as he appeared next to LULZ again. "H-H-H-HOW'D YOU GET RID OF THAT [Insignificant F--K]?" Noli asked as he leaned at LULZ "I H-H-H-HATE HIM!" Noli continued before waiting for LULZ to answer. "I... didn't really get rid of him.." LULZ mumbled as he sideeyed Noli. "B-B-B-BUT YOU DI-DI-DID!" Noli exclaimed throwing his hands up in joy. "OH JOYOUS HE WAS S-S-S-SO [Annoying.]" "..He'll be back you know right?" LULZ asked after a moment as he kept sideeyeing Noli. "[What]???" Noli asked dumbfounded. "This is only for a round, you know that, right?" LULZ asked again before Noli's smile fell and he threw himself into a dramatic cry before he seemed to blip out of existence.

"...Did you guys.. get used to this?" LULZ asked as he looked back over to Rochas who weakly shook his head. "..N-...no...". "Sometimes we still... um, get pretty scared..." Cappy mumbled back to LULZ. "Hey, can you please tell me what happened to 1Dash...?" Rochas asked as he turned his head to LULZ. "Why's he... Why's he grey, and.. cold.." Rochas mumbled. "I... I don't know, I was too busy with something else." LULZ responded, thinking back to the memory, remembering seeing 1Dash sprint out of the door but that's about it. Rochas frowned a bit before sighing.

"I'm sorry, Rochas..." LULZ mumbled before he gently pat his back. Right as his hand left Rochas' back he disappeared, to Rochas' surprise. "Did a round start..?" Rochas asked as he turned to Cappy who nodded. "Yeah, do you want to go watch?" he asked before Rochas shook his head. "No, I don't like all the violence..."

"This Rounds Killer is... IHasAFaceLULZ"

=== JX1DX1 ===

JX1DX1 found himself somewhere familiar. All too familiar. IHasAFaceLULZ's House, the one JX1DX1 had appeared in in the second episode. His tail rattled a little as he made an annoyed growl, of course, The Specter just wanted him to suffer didn't it. JX1DX1 looked around, the other Survivors didn't seem worried at all. They knew who LULZ was after, and it wasn't them.

"Alright fellas, who bets he dies in the next 2 minutes!?" Chance excitedly announced as he annoyingly pointed to JX1DX1 who scowled at him. Quite literally shaking. If he could murder Chance he so, so, SO would. Two Time, Shedletsky, Amanda and Brighteyes all raised their hand. Chance raised an eyebrow at Amanda "You're too young to bet I'm afraid." He said kindly before patting Amanda's head to her slight disappointment. "Tell ya what, if you're right, I'll give you a... rock!" Chance said trying to cheer her up as he quickly picked up a white rock from the ground. "Good enough" Amanda shrugged.

JX1DX1 watched as the other Survivors sat down to talk and debate how long he'd last to his distaste. Meanwhile from behind him. something came flying towards him he winced as something came and hit the back of his head, causing him to stumble forwards and grab the back of his head before twisting around to see a, justifiably pissed looking IHasAFaceLULZ. "You." He said as he stalked forwards to JX1DX1, knowing with full confidence that for once in his life, JX1DX1 couldn't hurt him. ".NOAH." JX1DX1 glitched out as he stepped back ever so slightly. "Do you know just how much you've RUINED my Life!?!?" LULZ asked, his voice shaking as he continued to walk forwards. ".AND.I.D.DO.IT.AGAIN." JX1DX1 laughed before he was very, very quickly shut up by LULZ clocking his face with the pot.

"'AnD i'D dO iT aGaIn'" LULZ mocked before he wound back and swung again, this time JX1DX1 scuttled backwards, avoiding it. "I WILL kill you this round." LULZ continued before he JX1DX1 darted away, causing LULZ to run after him, they both knew every square inch of this place, LULZ built it, JX1DX1 stalked and watched him do it the whole time, they both knew. "Don't you dare run!" Came LULZ's voice as the chase continued. Every time LULZ got close he tried swinging and just barely missed every single time.

Until this time. The Pan connected with JX1DX1's side causing him to stumble and crash to the ground. ".YOUR.ANGER.IS.CHILDISH." He stuttered out, his voice somehow glitching more than normal. "You'll pay for what you've done to me." LULZ hissed before raising the pan again and bashing it into the side of JX1DX1's head. ".YOU.WONT.GET.ANYTHING.FROM.THIS." JX1DX1 tried to speak again before LULZ stomped on his tail to keep him from running. "Oh I will." LULZ said with a smile. "Revenge is sweet.".

Each hit with the pan was somehow gorier than the last, each one bashing what was left of JX1DX1's head into the grassy floor. Sure the blood made him a little queasy but it was damn worth it. He got back up from his knees and dropped the pan, and watched as JX1DX1's body seemed to fade into smoke. Amanda approached him from behind. "Gorey." She commented before LULZ jumped in surprise.

"Yeah.."

"Gorey...."

Chapter Text

===JX1DX1===

When he respawned in the killers cabin he was positively fuming, absolutely hating the idea that that really just happened. He got his head beaten and bashed into the ground by some depressed teenager? His hands balled into fists as a slight glitched growl exhaled from his form. "WH-WHAT'S GOT YOU S-SO [Down in the dumps] MY [WORST PAL!]??" asked an annoying voice from the table as Noli laughed before JX1DX1 lunged at him like the FNAF 2 Foxy jumpscare. ".LISTEN.HERE.YOU.LITTLE.####." JX1DX1 snarled as he crashed into Noli, causing him to fall off of his chair and both of them onto the floor. ".I.LL.KILL.YOU."

JX1DX1 was quickly snatched up by 1x1x1x1 by the back of his neck like a stupid cat "Somebody's mad." 1x1x1x1 hissed before throwing him off of Noli. "I'm the embodiment of hatred and somehow I can keep my temper in check better than you." 1x1x1x1 growled roughly as he glared at JX1DX1. ".YOU.DON.T.UNDERSTAND." JX1DX1 snapped before 1x1x1x1 interrupted him "I couldn't give a shit actually. I don't feel like dealing with somebody angry today, so shut the fuck up." JX1DX1 nearly tried to run at 1x1x1x1 before he calmed down slightly, realizing it was slightly useless.

".YOU.WILL.NOT.UNDERSTAND." He growled before he glitched out of existence, to outside the killers Cabin, he needed to get away from those damn 'fools'. His eyes landed on a pair of kids near the side of the cabin. Rochas and Cappy, "Rochas, come on, come inside, it's cold.. and dark.." asked Cappy while trying to gently tug on Rochas' sleeve be he stayed put. "Cappy... I can't... just... go inside, 'kay?" Rochas mumbled, still sat on the cold grass by the side of the cabin. "..Please?" "...I... can't...."

On the otherside of the cabin was 1Dashleaves and XX4ce0fSpadesXx, both silently staring up at the stars, quietly, not a word shared between them. Just stargazing.

===Brandonworks===

"You okay LULZ?" Brandon asked as he tugged on FaceLULZ's sleeve. LULZ looked at the kid after zoning out for a moment. "Oh- yeah, yeah I'm fine." LULZ said softly before he smiled at Brandon. Brandon smiled back at LULZ "Good! I saw you beat the mean red guy, thank you." Brandon said sweetly before LULZ chuckled a little. "You're welcome Brandon, I was mostly doing it for myself, but hell, he said some things to you didn't he?" "yeah he did.." Brandon said, his happiness fading a little when he remembered JX1DX1's words. Seeing Brandon's sadness LULZ quickly changed the subject "Hey, you got any friends?" LULZ asked kindly.

"Oh- yes! My best friend is named Ozolog! I call him Ozo!" Brandon said immediately brightening up. "I miss Ozo, do you have friends you miss?" Brandon continued before looking at LULZ expectantly. "Well- I guess I miss them all, Ann, Fern, Bone, they're all nice and I certainly do miss them!" LULZ responded after a short moment.

Brandon and LULZ smiled as they both chatted about their friends that they missed. Amanda, Jacob and Dragondude were sitting down near the table, Amanda was telling them about Content Deleted. "He kinda just appears and repeats 'You're a liar' and 'You're alone', and I'm not sure how to get rid of him.." Amanada said while she bit her cheek. "Huh, ever tried just, leaving the game?" Dragondude asked while leaning back on his chair. "..No" "..Well, then maybe you have your solution." Dragondude shrugged. "Hey, hate to interrupt but a round is starting soon" Jacob piped up after a moment.

"This Rounds Killer is... Noli"

Brandon found himself in Yoricks Resting Place, he made an inhale to breathe in the crisp night air before looking around for anything or one. Nothing, nobody near him. I mean he saw Two Time in the distance but he and Two Time didn't really get along well ever since a few days ago. Brandon ran over to a nearby Generator after walking for a few minutes. He was new to fixing generators but hell, he could code a duplicate of himself, he could do this too. Green to green, then add tape, red to red, then add tape, very simple!

Right as he touched the purple wire he heard something "Brandon?", Brandon turned his head from the generator to the side before his eyes widened. "Ozo!" Brandon dropped the wires and ran over to Ozolog. "Ozo! You're here!" Brandon called to him as he waved to Ozo. "Brandon where have you been?" Ozo asked with a smile. "Oh Ozo! I've met so many new friends! New friends, New people, You have to meet them!" Brandon said as he threw himself at Ozo before hugging him tightly. "Really? Can I see them?" Ozo asked excitedly as Brandon nodded his head "Yes! Yes yes! C'mon lets find them!" Brandon chirped before he grabbed Ozolog's hand.

"Actually Brandon, I saw some people over here, maybe we can try and go over here?" Ozo asked as he gently tugged Brandon the other way. "Oh! Okay!" Brandon smiled before nodding his head. Ozolog and Brandon trotted through the slight field and trees, "So is this where you've been the whole time?" asked Ozo before Brandon nodded his head excitedly again "Yes! I swear the people here are so nice!". Brandon continued to talk about his newfound friends to Ozolog as they walked.

"Hey Ozo, nobodies here, we should look somewhere else." Brandon suggested as he looked around, nobody. "..No" Ozo said after a moment. "Ozo, c'mon, I wanna introduce you to my new friends." Brandon said before tugging Ozolog's hand, to which Ozo stayed still. "Ozo?" Brandon repeated before trying to tug at Ozo's hand again. Brandon looked up at Ozo confusedly but as he looked closer, Ozo didn't look correct, minor details were incorrect. Like his hat was the wrong shade of purple, and his face looked wrong. "Brandon?" Ozo responded, his face unchanging as he looked at Brandon. "Ozo?" Brandon echoed again, his voice smaller.

"HEHAHAHAHA- G-G-GOTCHA KID!" Ozo's appearance seemed to quickly evaporate before Brandon was pulled up by the back of his sweater. "Hey!- what- Ozo?!" Brandon near shrieked as he saw Ozo evaporate, his hands grasping at the air that Ozo had just occupied. His head swiveled around to look at who had held him up. His face half rotting and a comedy mask covering the rest of it Noli was staring right back at him. "Y-Y-YOU FELL FOR IT!" Came Noli's voice as he laughed again. "Who are you!?" Brandon asked dismayed as he looked at Noli "N-N-NAME'S NOLI [kid!] C-C-CAN'T SAY I'VE [seen you around town] B-BEFORE!" Noli said before bowing slightly, well as much as he could while holding Brandon and the Voidstar. "Where's Ozo!?" Brandon asked while still near panicking and looking around "[Ozo, is that you-] IS N-N-NOT HERE. B-B-BUT I [For I am AM]!" Noli responded before throwing Brandon into the air to catch him again

"Y-Y-YOU'RE FUN, KID! W-WH-WHAT'S YOUR [character name]?" Noli asked, clearly toying with Brandon. "um- I- Brandon" Brandon stuttered out clearly distressed "Let go!" Brandon said after stuttering out more half words and syllables. "N-N-NAH, K-KID. UNFO-FO-FORTUNATELY FOR YOU, I [have to] [unalive] YOU!" Noli said like he was explaining why the sky was blue to a 3 year old. Brandon immediately started shrieking again to which Noli rolled his eyes before preparing his Voidstar.

Suddenly Noli made a glitched scream and something quite literally zapped him, causing him to drop Brandon in a reflex. Brandon made a small "oof-" as he fell but quickly scrambled away and turned his head to where the flash of light came from. There stood a kid with a red jacket, backpack and mismatched glasses, one lens pink and one lens yellow, and 3 purple lanterns floating around him. Brandon immediately sprung to his feet and dashed away, taking the kid with the glasses' hand and running. "I- [I don't like this party]!!" came Noli's voice from behind them as he recovered from the stun.

As Brandon and the kid with glasses sprinted away from Noli, Noli came very very quickly speeding after them using Voidrush. "[DRIVING IN MY CAR-]" came Noli's soundbites as he rapidly approached. However right as Noli was about to crash into the two kids their visions went black, signifying that the round ended.

---

"Brandon who's that?" Asked Jacob as he looked curiously at the two holding hands. "I dunno but he saved me." Brandon said cheerfully.

"My name is Deivy" Deivy said before waving a bit. "I do the Tutorials."

===

"STUPID F-[fifty percent off!]-ING BRAT! I C-C-COULD HAVE [Won -]" Noli snarled once he got back to the killers cabin. Annoyed that Deivy had saved Brandon at the last second. ".NOW.YOU.KNOW.HOW.I.FEEL.("PAL")." JX1DX1 said from the his corner which he was sentenced to after nearly ripping Noli's head off. "SH-SH-SHUT IT [worm!]!!" Noli snapped at JX1DX1 before JX1 simply rolled his eyes. ".GO.KILL.YOURSELF." "Y-YOU CAN'T S-S-SAY THAT HERE! [this is a CHRISTIAN show!]" Noli gasped out, clearly appalled that anybody would dare speak to him that way.

Chapter Text

Deivy was getting to know the other survivors, he didn't talk much but made sure to be polite. The same "Hi I'm Deivy" exchanged with nearly everybody. His glasses shining a bit as he trotted over to the darker sides of the cabin to get to his newfound room. dropping his backpack on the floor of his new room as he took his glasses off. The lanterns that had been floating around him during the round were simply clipped onto his backpack too. His room had nothing much, it was empty just like every new survivor's was.

Deivy organized his minimal stuff, I mean he still had his computer so he put that on his table. He cleaned his Dealmakers just to make sure they didn't loose their colors or smudge at all. The door creaked a bit and Deivy looked up from where he was sitting. "Hey, what kind of Tutorials do you do?" 4Amanda4 stood in the doorway as she tilted her head a little bit and leaned on the doorframe. "Mostly video game tutorials." Deivy responded with a shrug. Amanda raised an eyebrow a little "well, like, what games?" she asked. "World Tower Defense" Deivy answered plainly. "...I've never heard of that game before." Amanda said after a moment of thinking. "Oh it's fun, you should play sometime, I guess." Deivy said before going back to his Glasses.

Deivy put down his glasses after a few minutes and walked out of his room before closing the door. however something caught his eye. "Hey, I haven't seen you before" Deivy said as he turned a bit to face Jacob who was mostly hiding in a less populated place of the cabin. "Huh- oh, I don't talk to people too much" Jacob stumbled out, clearly not expecting to be talked to. "Why do you have a gun?" asked Deivy as his eyes wandered over to the shotgun on Jacob's back. Jacob seemed to tense up a little, "oh- um- no reason.." Jacob answered, looking downwards a little. "You act weird" Deivy commented as Jacob fiddled with his fingers while looking downwards. "It's just- it's nothing.." Jacob continued as he seemed to shove himself further into the corner. Deivy stared at him for a few more minutes before he shrugged. "Okay"

===Jacob===

Jacob sighed in relief once Deivy walked away, he didn't like thinking of the shotgun, he didn't like looking at the shotgun, but he knew he needed it, he knew he had to keep it just in case.

He remembered what he was doing before he got here. Propped up near his computer, his shotgun pointed at his own head, and right as the trigger was pressed he found himself here, was this really hell? He didn't understand how he was suddenly 'okay', how he suddenly had his whole head in tact, how none nothing was bleeding. But he heard shrieks so he picked back up the shotgun out of fear and shot, that's how he got here.

But it didn't make sense, he should have died, shouldn't he? So why was he all of a sudden here. No, wait, he's thinking too hard, just don't think about that, it's fine. Jacob quickly stood up from his corner before he went back to his room, shutting the door and taking off the shotgun and scarf. He sighed and sat down on his bed, the covers were soft and welcomingly warm. Maybe he could sleep for just a bit until another round started...

He wiggled into bed before pulling the warm covers over himself, smiling just a bit from the nice fluffy feeling. Curling up under the covers he closed his eyes, melting a bit into the softness. The lights danced in his eyelids as they remained shut, the small little lightshow easily putting him to sleep.

Demo, he was in the Demo, the snow swirling around him as he stood from where he was. His scarf still on, his jacket still on, he began slowly wondering through the forest, each breath he exhaled made a puff of smoke, the air was warm somehow for winter, the snow was crunching beneath his feet. "Ja,,,cob" a voice echoed through the crisp air. Jacob stopped, looked around and found nothing, there was nothing. Just pine trees, snow, wind, and him. There was absolutely nothing, no other animal, just him, and the snow.

Jacob took another step before he heard it again "Jac,, ob" Jacob froze again, looking around again before seeing nothing. More crunchy steps as he began to kept moving through the forest. "Jac,,,ob c ome h,,,ere" echoed the voice again from the side of the forest. Jacob turned his head to the side of the forest, it seemed thicker over there, but out of curiosity he walked over to the thicker part of the forest. "l,,,ittle cl ose,,r" The voice echoed again as he walked deeper into the forest. The trees were so thick now that the forest floor had little to no snow. "Ja cob!" The voice was louder and seemed much closer from now, Jacob turned his head and swore he saw Antlers and right as he saw the antlers a hand extended from behind the tree and quickly grabbed him. Causing him to screech out of fear and surprise. The Hand had sharp claws and right as Jacob was about to get pulled behind the tree, He woke up.

Jacob shot upwards from his bed, unsure if he had actually screamed in the world of consciousness too. Jacob calmed down as he sat still on his bed, nobody came running in so it doesn't look like he screamed in 'real life' too. Jacob stayed in silence and stillness for a few more minutes before LULZ opened the door. "Hey, Jacob, a round is starting soon." he said before closing the door again.

Jacob sighed and then slipped out of his bed, rubbing the blur out of his eyes before he grabbed his shotgun again, hesitating slightly as he grabbed it, his hand shaking, but in the end he grabbed it. Put his scarf back on and walked out the door of his room. His eyes faced downwards as he joined the other survivors. The chattering fading into the background as he his mind wandered back to that dream. The antlers, the claws, the voice, the snow. Time easily passed while you were disassociating.

"This rounds killer is... a surprise"

The Specter decided to pull something 'hilarious' didn't it, it didn't even tell them what killer was going to be hunting them today. How 'lovely'.

Brandon and Jacob spawned together in The Underground War map. Jacob made a small sigh as he came back to reality. "Hi Jacob!" Brandon said cheerfully as he looked at Jacob. Jacob looked down for a moment to see Brandon before he made a small smile. "Hi Brandon." he gently gave Brandon a little pat on the back. Him and Brandon started to walk throughout the underground part of the underground war map, chatting a little as they relaxed a bit.

As they were walking through the 'cave'-like came across something. Jacob stopped for a moment as he saw a perfect silvery little present sat on the ground near the steps to the above map. "Hey! A present!" Brandon exclaimed before he ran to it. His smaller hands grasping at the wrapping paper as he picked it up. "Jacob a present!" He said with the biggest smile on his face before the present quite literally exploded in Brandon's hand. Brandon made a yelp as it exploded, clearly in shock and pain from the explosion so very close to him. "Brandon!?" Jacob shouted before he ran over to Brandon who was frozen in shock. "Brandon are you okay!?" Jacob asked as he grabbed Brandon to look over him. "I'm.. alright" Brandon said after a moment "Nothing a Lightbin wont fix." Brandon continued after a few moment, Brandon quickly threw down a lightbin.

Brandon was huddled in the lightbin and Jacob was beside it, keeping watch. "You feeling okay yet?" Jacob asked as he glanced in the lightbin which Brandon was still sitting in. "Mhm! Just gimme some more time." Brandon responded with a smile. Jacob smiled back and nodded his head before continuing to keep watch. At least, before something happened. Jacob heard a voice that made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. "Ja,,,cob!?? w here a,,,re yo u?" the glitched voice called out through the cavern-like map. "I,,,t's not h ide an,,,d see k Jaco,,,b!" came the voice again. Jacob's face turned pale before he looked back down at his hands, then Brandon and then the shotgun on his back. Was he dreaming again? Please he had to be.

"Jacob?" Brandon asked as he saw Jacob visibly turn pale and on edge, "are you okay?" he continued as he gently tugged Brandon's hand. "..fine, I'm okay Brandon..." Jacob whispered, unable to raise his voice whatsoever. "Are you sure...?" Brandon asked again, very sure Jacob wasn't okay. "Yeah... fine..." Jacob mumbled. "Hey, Brandon lets go now, 'kay?" Jacob asked as he gently tugged Brandon's hand, silently asking him to get out of the lightbin. "Oh, okay!" Brandon said with a smaller, more worried, smile. Jacob was walking just a bit faster than usual which was apparent for Brandon considering he was shorter than Jacob, and meaning that he had to continuously walk a little faster to stay beside Jacob.

After a few minutes of walking above ground he saw Deivy and LULZ dashing away from something. "Hey! LULZ, Deivy, what exactly are you guys running from?" Jacob asked quickly as LULZ and Deivy ran out of breath. "huh- oh-.. um.. a guy with a glass head, new killer." LULZ said while out of breath before he looked back and made a small noise of dismay before running off. Deivy was trying to regenerate his lanterns so he had stopped and tried fiddling with them.

Out of nowhere Jacob heard heavy steps, he turned around to see one of those stonemen things. Walking surprisingly fast towards them. Brandon stuck to Jacob's side before Jacob snapped out of his small state of shock and fear. For the first time in a little while, a flicker of Bravery appeared in his eyes. His hand reached back for the shotgun before quickly aiming which took less than a few seconds, and shooting. The stoneman crumbled, just crumbled, looks like it was a bit weak, but maybe that was good for them. Jacob put his shotgun back before taking Brandon's hand. "C'mon Brandon, let's hurry." Deivy had got one lantern to start floating again and that was good enough, Deivy started following them, after all, there were safety in numbers.

Jacob swore he heard his name in the distance, but every time he did he refused to acknowledge it. If he heard something, no he didn't. Jacob, Brandon, and Deivy where all walked through the place, it seemed so... eerily quiet.. "Why does it say your name?" Deivy asked out of the blue as he turned to Jaocb. "Huh?" Jacob blinked in surprise as he looked over at Deivy. "The new killer, it says your name." Deivy repeated. "Why?" Jacob looked at him for a solid few seconds. "It's.... It's my dad...." Jacob said quietly "I think" he added in his head. Deivy completely stopped walking and just made the most confused and "what the fuck" expression you may ever imagine.

"That thing, is related to you?" Deivy repeated as he looked at Jacob. Jacob paused for a moment before unsurely nodding his head. Deivy took a few moments to stare at Jacob with the "what the fuck" expression before shouting "What kinda genetics is going on here?!". Jacob made a small nervous chuckle "well- you see, it's just, he looked different awhile ago, alright?" Jacob tried to reason. Part of him was still hanging onto the fact of "he's my dad!" but another half was still there, thinking, "would my dad really make me try and shoot myself...?" It was a little too conflicting to think of right now.

As they were stopped due to Deivy's disbelief and Jacob's embarrassment, Brandon had wandered ahead. Brandon made a shriek of fear which caused them to swivel their head around to where Brandon's shriek was coming from. Jacob's eyes widened as his eyes finally landed on Him. It was Father, and he was chasing Brandon who was running back to Deivy. "JA,,COB" Father's attention shifted from Brandon to Jacob as he noticed him. Father looked different, Father had glass claws on his hands and antlers. "J acob c,,,ome he re..." Father said in a loud yet slightly gentle voice as he held out his blood stained glass claws. blood stained, glass claws.

Jacob stood completely still, every part of him was screaming "it's not dad is it.", but some grieving, desperate part of him, really, reached, grasped and dug for any reasoning behind it. "Jac,,,ob" Father repeated stepping a little closer. "Com e her,,,e Jaco b" he repeated. Jacob's hands shook slightly as he reached for the shotgun on his back. "Ja cob..." his voice got a little darker as he saw Jacob reach for the shotgun. "J,,,acob, com e her,,,e pl ease" He repeated again before Jacob shakily pointed the gun. "Ja,,,cob don 't yo,,,u da re sh,,,oot th at." Father's voice was very clearly annoyed at best, angry at worst.

"You're not my dad.." Jacob whispered before he pulled the trigger. As the shotgun's recoil sent shockwaves through Jacob The Glass Man made a sharp yell of rage and ever so slight pain. "Y,,,OU'RE GR OUND,,,ED" he roared before Brandon and Deivy darted away from the scene Jacob was a little slow to follow due to the recoil of the shotgun.

As Jacob recovered enough to run he tried to dash off with Brandon and Deivy, it grabbed his arm. He made a small yelp of pain as he felt the glass claws dig into his arm, causing it to bleed a little. "Y,,,ou're n ot goi,,,ng anywh ere Jaco,,,b." it growled before it tried to yank Jacob closer to it. Jacob tried to pull himself away but the claws quite literally dug and ripped into his skin. "Let go!" Jacob shouted as he winced from the pain, trying not to cry and slightly failing. "Ja,,,cob yo u'll pa,,,y for th at." The Glass man tried to reach for Jacob's other hand before it was zapped away.

Deivy had come back. Father made another yell of anger and slight pain as his hands were zapped away from Jacob and Deivy pulled Jacob away from the scene. "The round's almost over, Brandon's safe, we just have to make it." Deivy explained, They heard The Glass Man recover from the zap. "J,,,ACOB!!!" he shrieked as he came close to grabbing them again. Right as those claws came close to grabbing Jacob's scarf their vision went black.

"So, you gonna explain that or no?" Deivy asked as they were sat back on the table across from Jacob.

Since the fic might end in the next 10 chapters or so, what ARG crossover fic should I do next? I'm thinking of Regretevator next =w=

Chapter Text

Jacob twiddled his fingers a little as he looked downwards at the table, the others looking over at him from across the table. "So... that's your dad?" Deivy asked slowly before Jacob shook his head slowly. "...No... I don't... I don't think it's my dad at this point..." Jacob mumbled, keeping his eyes down as he frowned, being quiet for a moment. "My dad-..." Jacob started before stopping for a moment, "My dad died, that thing pretends to be him I think..." he finished as he sighed out the rest of his words, putting his hands to his face to hide the slight sadness in his eyes. "I believed him, up until I got here.." Jacob added quietly.

The others kinda just stared at him, afraid to say something in fear Jacob might start sobbing at the table. "Well, that's a good answer." Deivy said finally before pushing away from the table. "You alright Brandon??" Deivy added as he looked over to Brandon who was beside him. "No." Brandon answered bluntly as he frowned over at Deivy who just nodded his head. "Yeah nobody's alright." Deivy said after a moment and then sighing. "Everybody here has problems." Deivy continued before his eyes shifted over to the other ARG Protagonists. "You have a demon stalker." Deivy said as he pointed to IHasAFaceLULZ. "You have a dead father and a mimic. You have a random guy that calls you a Liar. You have some weird structure event shit. Your friend has a tree virus that goes everywhere he goes. And Brandon..." Deivy paused for a moment as he looked over at Brandon. "He's uhh.... special." Deivy concluded after a moment.

"What about you, what do you have?" FaceLULZ asked as he turned over to Deivy with a small tilt of his head. Deivy froze for a moment before sighing. "Uh, my friend's missing and there's a doppelganger of me, in the simplest way to explain it." Deivy said in response after a few moments of thoughts. "Surprisingly normal compared to us" commented DragonDude.

"So, does anybody here know how to get out?" Asked Deivy also looking at the original survivors as well. "Well, you see..." Shedletsky began as he nervously smiled and looked away. "We can't." He finished after a few moments. "...So you just haven't found a way out yet?" Deivy asked after another moment to which Shedletsky just shook his head. "There is no way out." Deivy looked at him before taking off his Dealmakers just to rub his eyes a little before putting them back on and deadpanning. "There has to be a way out to everything. There's a way in, so there's a way out." Deivy reasoned and before Shedletsky could pipe up again he continued "The Specter is the thing that brought us here, correct? So The Specter also has a way in and out, the challenge is finding and escaping using that exit." "Kid- that's nearly impossible I promise you, you can't just do that." Shedletsky said trying to make sure nobody got their hopes up too high like he and the others had what felt like years ago.

"Trust me I'm a smart kid." Deivy said before waving Shedletsky away. "When's the next round? I know we get 5-60 minute breaks in-between." Deivy asked as he looked over to the table of protagonists who just shrugged. "The day's just started so I'd say pretty soon." Dragondude added as he glanced at the clock on the wall. "Great, when the round starts YOU guys will do what you guys always do, I'll do something slightly different." Deivy said before completely sitting up and walking back to his room. "Weird kid." Commented Guest 1337 who was a little bits away but close enough to have heard everything.

===Spacewanderer545===

A few more slow minutes passed and as the next round drew nearer Spacewanderer just stayed in his seat. Looking down at the ground in deep thought. He worried about 1Dash, about Rochas, about Cappy. How were they doing, were they okay? Were his friends.. dead? Missing? Gone? Would he never see them again?? Fortunately for little Spacewanderer, he would see them again. Just not in the way he would have liked.

"This rounds Killer is... Rochas313"

Spacewanderer stayed in slight shock as his vision cleared up. Rochas was this rounds killer...? His brain wracked for a moment, how could Rochas be killer? Spacewanderer slowly gathered the strength to finally take a few steps, hesitantly, shakily. He walked past Brandon and Dragondude doing a generator together, watching for a moment as they Dragondude taught Brandon how to safely fix one with a wrench and gloves instead of haphazardly taping wires together with his bear hands. Planet Voss seemed so... calm. 4amanda4 joined walking near him. "Hey, why do you look so pale?" She asked holding her skateboard in one hand. Spacewanderer seemed to snap out of his temporary trance. "Oh, um... I just know this rounds killer is all..." Spacewanderer half mumbled in response, still looking to the ground. "Oh that must be tough, sorry about that.." 4amanda4 apologized a bit. "No no it's fine-" Spacewanderer was saying until he heard something behind them.

"Spacewanderer.. é você..??" Came a rather small, seemingly tired voice. Spacewanderer froze for a moment before spinning around to find Rochas a few yards behind them both. Rochas looked... Horrible to say the least. Parts of the tree growing around him like invasive vines, wooden bark covered patches of his clothes and body, his eyes seemed so dead as they looked at Spacewanderer. He shakily began to take a few steps. "É a árvore-" Rochas seemed to hurriedly stumble out as the shaky few steps turned into a speedwalk. Right as he broke into a small run he yelled out "It's the damn tree Space! Get out of the way-!" Rochas shouted before his tremoring hand that had grown sharp wooden claws raised up and came slashing down across Spacewanderer's self who had been too scared, stunned, and in shock to run. "I'm sorry!" Rochas cried out, tears pricking his eyes before he made a yelp of pain as Amanda's Skateboard bashed into his face, causing him to stumble backwards. "Isso dói!" he whined out a little as he gripped his face with his hands.

Amanada grabbed Spacewanderer's arm and dashed off while basically pulling him along as Space looked back to watch Rochas disappear from view, crying from the pain of having his face violently hit with a skateboard, but before Rochas himself could recover it seemed he moved as if it didn't affect him even though he was very clearly still in pain.

Amanda and Spacewanderer ran into a group of survivors. "Hey- Killer's coming this way you might want to scatter!" Amanda warned as she dropped Spacewanderer who snapped out of his shock. "Oh- hey I have a medkit for ya" Builderman piped up from the group of survivors as he pulled out a medkit and quickly tried to help Spacewanderer apply the bandages before said killer got here.

Right as Builderman and Spacewanderer finished applying the bandages roots shot from the ground and tangled themselves around Builderman's legs. "You!" came Rochas's voice as his saddened and pain voice turned into fury, his eyes looking straight at Builderman. "Look what you did! You didn't listen to me and now look what happened to me!?" Rochas shouted as he got closer and closer, Spacewanderer dashed behind a wall now that Rochas's attention wasn't on him. "I don't even know ya kid." Builderman said as he tried pulling at the roots which tightened around his legs. "Liar! You know what you all did." Rochas seethed before his claws came and violently slashed at Builderman.

"You could have saved me! Now look what's happening!" Rochas shouted as some of his anger turned to sadness once more. Builderman was at this point unable to speak due to the amount of slashes in his general torso and body. Rochas basically sobbing as he kept going until Builderman faded into nothing, back into the cabin he went. "You could have saved me, you could have saved us..." Rochas choked out through sobs as he got up again, very clearly looking like he didn't even want to move.

Spacewanderer, still behind the wall, started to carefully move a little, bit by bit scooting away from the scene and away from Rochas. Each step causing incredible anxiety as he walked. The suddenly a branch snapped. Rochas's head swiveled to look at the corner that Spacewanderer was hiding behind. Spacewanderer immediately stopped, barely moving let alone breathing. "...olá?" Rochas called out before he moved to check the wall. Spacewanderer panicked a little as he saw Rochas's hand appear and then his face. "Spacewanderer!-" Rochas near shouted as immediate worry crossed his face. "Spacewanderer I'm so sorry- I can't stop it, it's the tree Spacewanderer!-" Rochas stumbled out his words before he felt himself step a little closer. "Spacewanderer please run, please I can't stop it." Rochas pleaded as he stared at Spacewanderer who took a shaky step back. "It's the tree, Spacewanderer." Rochas mumbled before he made a yelp as it threw himself forwards.

Spacewanderer missed the claws just barely as he immediately started sprinting away, The tree, and Rochas, following close behind. "Spacewanderer- just- know I'm sorry!-" Rochas called out from behind him before he almost lost his balance trying to swipe at Spacewanderer. Rochas was hoping, begging, praying that the time would run out faster, he didn't want to hurt anybody, not even Builderman, Dusekkar or Shedletsky, and especially not his friends, but he was forced to. His movements were shaky and uncoordinated like a puppet on strings.

Right as Rochas was about to catch up to Spacewanderer he shut his eyes, if he couldn't see neither could the tree. It caused him to stumble and slow down enough for Spacewanderer to get another headstart before the Tree forced his eyes open. As Rochas and Spacewanderer ran across the field of trees and the occasional building FaceLulz darted out from around the corner and absolutely clocked Rochas with the pan. Rochas made another sound of pain as he stumbled back and lost balance, causing him to fall to the ground.

But for the first few minutes, Rochas just rocked a bit on the ground while holding the place LULZ had violently smashed with his pan before he opened his eyes a little. LULZ and Spacewanderer had stopped a few yards away looking at Rochas. "Did... you stop it...?" Asked Rochas as he waited to feel himself be yanked upwards and thrown back into a chase, but it didn't happen. "Please- tell me you stopped it..." Rochas mumbled as he looked down at himself, waiting for feel it again. LULZ looked over at Spacewanderer who looked back at him with a small face of disbelief. "What the hell is your pan made of." Spacewanderer asked before LULZ shrugged a bit. Right as they had looked away to stare at each other Rochas made a small shriek as he was forced back upwards and stumbled towards them again.

Right as Rochas's claws tried to grasp for LULZ somebody crashed into Rochas, causing them both to fall to the floor in a roll. "Who are you!?" Rochas asked in shock as he looked up at the person who had crashed into him. The Dealmakers he wore shining a little to brightly for Rochas's comfort. "My name is Deivy." Deivy responded bluntly before the clock stuck 0:00

===DeivyDoesTutorials33===

Right as the clock struck 0:00 all of their visions blinked to black, but he didn't let go of Rochas even as his vision turned black. He figured, just maybe, if he could grab onto the killer and teleport back to the Killer's Cabin he'd either die, or look for stuff there, Clearly Killers could glitch into the Survivors Cabins, so why couldn't vice versa be possible.

Right as Deivy's vision returned he had realized his success, good news! He succeeded, bad news, he succeeded. Rochas was considerably confused when his vision came back and Deivy was still holding onto him, and even more so when Deivy jumped up and ran out the door faster than people could really react. "Who was tha-tha-that?" asked Noli after a moment. "There isn't a new killer, so I don't know." Mafioso added from his chair as he gazed at the open door. ".I.HAVE.A.CLUE." Came JX1DX1's cheese grater-like voice from his personal corner. ".I.LL.GO.FIND.OUT.HOW.'BOUT.THAT." JX1DX1 said simply before poofing out of existence in a red mist

Chapter Text

Deivy darted through the yard and into the tree-line, he knew at least one person was going to chase after him. He panted a bit as he jumped over tree roots, branches and rocks in the forest. While he was a little slow due to his backpack and lanterns hanging onto him, but never the less he was fast enough. He heard sharp skittering behind him, the crunch of leaves and branches under claws, which just encouraged him to run faster. He thought a branch snagged onto him until he was sharply turned around to see a ghastly face and smile. ".WHO.ARE.YOU.("?")" Came the sharp broken up voice of JX1DX1.

JX1DX1's head tilted as he started at Deivy's eyes through his Dealmakers. Deivy made a nervous smile as he tried to get JX1DX1 to unhand him, his hands trying to fiddle with the claws on his Backpack. "I'm Deivy.." Deivy responded as he continued to smile. ".I.HAVE.HEARD.OF.YOU." JX1DX1 said as his claws tightened a little on the back of Deivy's backpack as Deivy tried prying the creatures claws off of it. ".WOULD.YOU.LIKE.TO.MAKE.A.DEAL("?")" asked JX1DX1 to Deivy, his spaded tail swaying slightly. "No no- really I'm trying to find a way out." Deivy said as he tried to pry JX1DX1's claws off of his backpack. ".DON.T.YOU.HAVE.GLASSES.CALLED.("Dealmakers?")" JX1DX1 asked again with a small annoyed tone to his voice.

".LISTEN.KID.I.NEED.SOMEBODY." JX1DX1 continued with a roll of his eyes ".AND.YOU.MIGHT.KNOW.WHERE.THEY.ARE." Deivy interrupted him after a moment, "Listen, I'm not going to do anything you say, I'm looking for a way out." JX1DX1 thought for a moment. ".I.COULD.GET.YOU.OUT." Deivy raised an eyebrow. "You can..? How?" He asked confused as he looked at JX1DX1 ".I.GOT.IN.I.COULD.GET.OUT.I.CAN.TAKE.YOU.WITH.ME." JX1DX1said simply. ".I.JUST.NEED.ONE.PERSON." Deivy stopped him "I want all of us out, not just me." JX1DX1 looked visibly slightly upset. ".WHY.ARE.YOU.SO.CONSIDERATE." JX1DX1 hissed a glare of annoyance in his voice. "Hey- think about it, you can get out too." Deivy tried reasoning before JX1DX1 thought a bit more. ".THIS.IS...ACCEPTABLE." JX1DX1 responded before putting the kid down a little roughly. "I.HAVE.FRIENDS.THAT.CAN.HELP.US." JX1DX1 said as he turned around with a flick of his demon-like tail, expecting Deivy to follow.

=== Jacob ===

"Hold on- where's Deivy?" Jacob asked as they all sat around the table that they always found themselves around after a match, his head looking around for any sign of the light his Lanterns often glowed. LULZ looked around too, to which he found nothing, no sign of Deivy. Amanda looked up from her spot on the table, her vision finally clearing up enough. "Huh- what?" She asked after a moment. "Deivy's gone" LULZ said, sitting upwards a bit more in his chair as he looked around for Deivy too. "What do you mean gone?" Amanada asked as a look of confusion crossed her face, she looked towards the empty seat where Deivy should be.

"Holy shit did he die?" Spacewanderer asked as he paled at the thought, did he die permanently somehow? He crashed into Rochas didn't he? and Rochas very clearly did kill people that round. "Kid- People don't die permanently-" Builderman was about to try and reassure the clearly near panicking kid before he cut him off. "Then why is he gone!?" Spacewanderer nearly shrieked out panicking at the thought of somebody dying for him. Builderman was about to say something before he shut his mouth, he didn't have an explanation for why Deivy was gone either.

"I don't think he's dead SpaceWanderer.." LULZ tried his best to console Spacewanderer before he burst into tears. He was just a kid, they were all just kids, he couldn't bare the thought of somebody, especially another kid, taking their life for him. He didn't even have 1Dash to comfort him, he was gone too. All of his friends were gone. Clearly in the midst of a panic attack SpaceWanderer was clawing at his aviator hat while LULZ desperately tried to comfort him. "Maybe he didn't come back at the table for some reason!-" "Maybe he'll come back next round!" all the words helplessly fell on deaf ears as Spacewanderer sobbed.

Jacob looked at the scene for a little longer before he silently sighed. Hands going up to his face, they were all having a horrible time, weren't they. "Jacob, can we go outside?" Asked a smaller voice. Jacob took his hands off of his face to look at who had said that, turning his head to see Brandon who was looking anxiously at the scene in front of him with the Sobbing Spacewanderer. "...Yeah, lets go outside." Jacob nodded after a moment, taking Brandon's hand in his as he scooted off of the seat and walked pasted the other survivors to the door of the cabin.

They sat at the Cabin's stairs, hearing the chirping of crickets as they both looked up at the glittery night sky. "...Here.." Brandon mumbled quietly before he silently offered Jacob a few things. Jacob looked down just to see a miniature cross and small green square in his hands. "What are these for..?" Jacob asked, taking the small objects and putting them closer to his face so he could see them better in the darkness of the night. "Cross and green, to keep things sinless and clean, to keep evil away. I don't want to lose my friends again." Brandon said before leaning on Jacob to his surprise. Jacob looked over at Brandon in surprise for a moment before wrapping an arm around him. "Thank you Brandon.." he mumbled after a moment, gently tucking the small, important, objects into his pocket.

===DeivyDoesTutorials33===

".WHY.THE.####.ARE.YOU.HERE.(",").WHEN.DID.YOU.EVEN.GET.HERE." Hissed JX1DX1 angrily as he pointed a clawed finger at the man standing in the middle of the Killer's Cabin. JX1DX1's voice crackling more than usual from annoyance and anger in his voice, his spaded tail lashing a little. Deivy side-eyed him a little before trying to scoot away before his wrist was grabbed by JX1DX1's other hand. Deivy made a small wince at the feeling of JX1DX1's claws digging into his wrist.

"I could ask the same!?" he snapped back as he looked at JX1DX1 disgustedly with the only Eye that could, the other eye stabbed out and dripping with dried blackish blood, covered by a black Spawnpoint-like object, or crown. ".STUPID.PIRATE.ANSWER.MINE.FIRST." Snarled JX1DX1 as he stomped forwards more, unfortunately dragging Deivy with him. "Why are you holding the kid like that." Sean commented as he glanced at Deivy who very clearly was wishing to not be here. JX1DX1 looked back at Deivy for a moment before yanking him into the air by his arm. ".THIS.("?")" He asked as he pointed to Deivy who was quietly protesting and trying to get JX1DX1's claws to drop him. ".THIS.BRAT.IS.USEFUL." JX1DX1 concluded before he dropped Deivy harshly. "God fucking damn it why the FUCK CAN'T YOU BE NORMAL!?" Sean shouted at JX1DX1 who was less than a foot away from Sean. "WHAT IS WITH YOU AND STALKING KIDS!?" ".WHAT.I.DO.IN.MY.FREETIME.IS.NONE.OF.YOUR.CONCERN.("!")" Shouted JX1DX1 back before [Content Deleted]'s sword came crashing in between them both, splintering the wooden floor between them.

They quickly turned to face [Content Deleted] before the same knight-like anomaly stared silently back, it appears he wanted to stop them from fighting any longer. Maybe the fight annoyed him. ".("...").WHATEVER.THE.CASE.THIS.IS.NOT.YOUR.CONCERN." JX1DX1 continued after a moment as he looked back at Sean who just scowled at him. JX1DX1 quickly skittered off, grabbing Deivy again as he retreated into the darker corners of the Cabin, towards his room.

"So.. who was that...?" Deivy asked after a moment as he was shoved into JX1DX1's room, which had an eye bleeding amount of red and black. ".YOU.DON.T.NEED.TO.KNOW." JX1DX1 said quickly before locking the door making sure nobody could follow them. "This place is... really... red.. and black.." Deivy commented as he looked around the room, which looked like a normal room except with older computers scattered around and it seemed like a Red and Black filter was over the whole place. ".IS.THAT.A.PROBLEM.("?")" Asked JX1DX1 as he looked back at Deivy with a small offended tone to his voice. "No." Deivy said quickly. ".GOOD.(",").ANYWAY." JX1DX1 said before walking away from the door and sitting down at a table, clearly wanting Deivy to sit across from him.

"..You are.. very unsettling, sir" Deivy commented as he sat down on the wooden chair, unsure whether to call it sir or not and clearly slightly unsettled with the creatures presence and being in it's room. ".I.AM.AWARE." JX1DX1 said simply as his spaded tail swayed. ".SO.YOU.SAID.("No no- really I'm trying to find a way out.").EARLIER.(",").I.CAN.GET.YOU.AND.YOUR.FRIENDS.("—").I.GUESS.("—").OUT." JX1DX1 said as he stared almost painfully long at Deivy. "Yeah...? and how is that...?" Deivy asked after a moment, clearly trying to avert his eyes anywhere but at JX1DX1's. ".YOU.SEE.I.MAY.HAVE.HAD.MY.POWERS.("...").SAPPED.BY.THE.ONE.WHO.TOOK.YOU.HERE.HOWEVER.I.BELIEVE.IF.ME.AND.MY.(" 'friends' ").WORK.TOGETHER.I.COULD.GET.YOU.OUT." JX1DX1 detailed, his claws tapping against the wooden table.

".ARE.YOU.SURE.YOU.WANT.TO.TAKE.YOUR.FRIENDS.("?").IT.MIGHT.BE.HARDER.WORK." JX1DX1 asked again after another moment, tilting his head in a mock of innocence. "Yes, like I said before. If they aren't coming then I'm not helping you find somebody." Deivy confirmed, some strength returning to his voice and figure. ".DIFFICULT.ARE.WE." JX1DX1 commented before he shook his head for a moment. "I.M.LOOKING.FOR.A.KID.NAMED.("Noah").OR.YOU.MAY.KNOW.HIM.AS.("IHasAFaceLULZ")." JX1DX1 explained. ".HAS.A.POT.ON.HIS.HEAD.WEARS.A.SUIT.VERY.NOTICABLE." Deivy raised his eyebrows for a moment "Oh, I know him. Yeah why do you need him?" He asked. ".THAT.S.NONE.OF.YOUR.BUSINESS." JX1DX1 said dismissively as he waved one of his claws like he was swatting a fly away. There was a sudden knock at the wooden door.

JX1DX1 bristled with annoyance as he turned to face the door. ".WHO.IS.IT.("?")" He asked, still in his seat. "JX1DX1 The-" Sean was saying, as calm as possible before JX1DX1 shouted over the rest. ".NO." he said, refusing to hear the rest out before he turned back to Deivy. ".ANYWAY." JX1DX1 was about to continue. "JX1DX1 THE KID YOU HAVE IN THERE HAS SOMEBODY THAT WANTS TO SEE THEM!!!" Sean damn near shrieked through the door. Deivy made a confused face who would want to see him? He hadn't seen Geometry in weeks. JX1DX1 nearly ripped his metaphorical hair off before jumping off the chair and slamming the door open. ".I.AM.BUSY." He snapped in Sean's face before Sean shrugged and stepped out of the way slightly for a... familiar face... to look in the room.

"You!!" James shouted as he pointed to Deivy. He still had the Red see-through cube on his head, and the same face and avatar as when Deivy last saw him. Deivy made a look of surprise, shock, and slight disbelief before he nearly fell off of his chair and ran over to where JX1DX1 was and slammed the door back shut. JX1DX1 looked at Deivy with a small look of 'wtf' ".("...").WHO.WAS.THAT.("?")." JX1DX1 asked as Deivy held the door shut. "Lock it please.." Deivy said as he struggled to hold the door closed from James who was actively yelling on the other side. JX1DX1 rolled his eyes before locking the door, causing Deivy to sigh in relief. "A.. friend..? But last time I saw him I quite literally killed him so..." Deivy said as he glanced back at the door to which James was still aggressively yelling from the other side.

JX1DX1 looked at the door for a second longer before shrugging. ".BACK.TO.BUSINESS." He said before walking back over to the table as if what just happened was a figment of ones imagination, completely ignoring the yelling on the other side of the door.

Notes:

Over the last few months I have become increasing insecure about my writing skills and ashamed about my several addictions, as well as being incredibly anxious about the general state of the ARG community. I did not take a 'break' so to say, I instead had been stuck in an anxious pit of self doubt and fear of reactions to what I put out. I have been suspected for many mental disorders over the time I have been gone as well, adding to the already intense stress and crushing fear.

Please, be patient with me while I try to make sure this fanfic doesn't be abandoned. I want to give it the ending it deserves but if I get bad criticism or have too much stress I feel I will lash out and delete the whole thing. Please, be patient with me and my health, both mental, and now physical.

ASIDE FROM THAT, SEILDIRECTORY TODAY!
(Please don't let my sad announcement down the comment section, I love seeing you all enjoy and react to the story!)
