Family Undiscovered: A DDLC AU

Chapter 8: An Adventure Of Truth

        As the door shut, Monika watched with caution as she shut the door. Kathryn stepped over to the couch, her mind like a messy mind filled with anxiety waves, downward spiraling water of a waterhole. Holding the book, she looked through the pages to the part that she saw. The pages with the hidden treasure of truth, secrecy, and division between their family full of loving care.

With the both of them on the couch, Kathryn took a breath before speaking. Monika prepared for what Kathryn was going to say before she even did so.

"Look, Kathryn, if this is anything about being sisters, I don't think you need to go out of your way to prove it,"

"But it's true-"

"Kathryn, no it isn't -"

"Yes it is and if you hear me out, I think you'll believe me. Please, just hear me out,"

"Alright, fine, go ahead,"

      As soon as Monika responded, Kathryn showed her the whole family tree from their great-grandma to their pictures. Monika's eyes widened as she saw her photo in the family book. For so long she believed that nothing was real and everything related to that. Yet, seeing the family book changed everything on those beliefs of hers. Kathryn watched as Monika shook her head, her eyes still wide, and her head spiraled downward. "Monika, I didn't mean to -"

"You need to go,"

"Monika, please,"

She shook her head as Kathryn closed the family book.

      While all of this was happening, a shadow figure stepped out of a shadowy vehicle. Shutting the car door behind him, he locks the car with a press of a button, making his way to the house. The keys in his hand jingle as he scans for his house key. Opening the door, he saw Kathryn pleading to Monika about the whole situation, shaking her head violently. She had her hands on her head, almost on the verge of crying in disbelief and denial of everything.

          "What's going on here?" The man asked in a direct voice, displeased with the situation. The man wore a Dark blue suit with a jet-black bow tie and brown loafers matched with dark gray socks. His hair was styled in a smoothed-out buzz cut colored with the same color as his daughter, Kathryn, with eyes of emerald green like his other daughter, Monika. Kathryn turned to him, frozen in her spot, as her eyes widened in fear. "Kathryn?" He asked, raising one of his eyebrows. 

       With anxiety lingering throughout her body, Kathryn escaped the house, climbing through the window, falling to the ground of soft green grass, seeing a lighted path with her own eyes. Doing this, she followed the path as closely as she could, only to look up at a glowing portal in front of her. The glowing light of the pink-light portal illuminated the side of the house. Seeing this, she watched as Rose entered the portal alone, for she thought no one was around. From this, an idea conjured in Kathryn's mind as she planned for a new adventure. Walking up to the portal, she dusted herself off, particularly her jean shorts and black leggings underneath. Getting closer to the pink light, illumination of pink light reflects on Kathryn's outfit, mostly her candy pink shirt with a hand-drawn smile logo printed in dark ink. 

     Touching the portal, she watched as her hand went through, she grew a wide smile, pulling her hand back quickly. However, as that happened, the mailbox, behind her, fell as her hand smacked it, causing her to fall into the portal. Catching herself, Kathryn looked around her, from this, she could sense that she was in a different world from the one before.
