"Where am I? Bierce, are you here with me?" Doug says waking up, the room was completely dark, nobody responds, "Huh, I guess not.. Why is it so dark? I can't see anything"

Doug feels around the room and finds a switch, the room lights up and a hologram powers on in the middle of the room

"Hello! I am the one and only [Redacted], the creator of the mansion! I bet you have questions! Like: Where are you? What is this room? What are the doors for? Well, I'll explain! You are in a room where anyone in the mansion can access the different timelines! There are so many rooms like this but I brought you to the different timelines that have to do with Eric/Elia. Some of them are very... graphic? Some are just sad, some are just Elia not meeting Malak! You can select what timeline you want to go to by just entering a door!" The hologram [Redacted] explains

"Simple enough I guess, but why am I the only one who's in here?" Doug asks

"Because.. Even though Elia and Eric may be the same person, they're still different people, Eric still trusts you a bit to let me take you here and have you look at these. There is a chance you can mend your friendship with Eric, you can figure out how by looking through these timelines. Good luck." She says then the hologram turns off

"Well, at least Eric still trusts me enough to let me see this place." Doug smiled and chose a random door

He goes in the door and he's in a school building

"Yeah, I heard that rumor, I don't think it's true though" Doug could hear Elia talking to someone walking in Doug's direction

"But what if it is true! You got to meet a demon if it is!" The other person says

The two sit down on the roof and start eating their lunch

"Huh? How'd this get here? I didn't pack any cupcakes" Elia says pulling a cupcake out her lunch box

"Strange, it looks like it's themed off of something.." Elia's friend said looking at it

Doug noticed it was themed around a dread duckie, most likely Leggathin, then Doug saw a boy go ton approach the two girls

"Hi, I'm Markus. I'm new here and I was wondering if I could sit next to you two" The boy introduced himself

"Of course! If that's ok with you Elia" Elia's friend said

"I wouldn't mind, especially since the friend group is so small.. I hope we can be friends Markus!" Elia said setting the cupcake back in her lunchbox

"Thank you so much, what's your friend's name Elia?" Markus sits down

"Mary, I'm Mary. It's very nice to meet you Markus" Mary smiles at Markus

"Nice to meet you too" Markus turns and looks at Elia "People have been telling rumors you were sacrificed to a demon when you were young and got turned into a demon, is it true?"

"I don't think it's true.. Though there was an accident when I was 10 that made me end up in the hospital without any of my memories from before the accident so.. It could be true.." Elia sounds a bit upset

"Elia! If you are a demon yourself that would be so cool! I'd be friends with a demon! Scary dog privileges right?" Mary laughs

Elia and Markus join in laughing as well, then Markus looks at Doug

"Yo Markus, you okay?" Elia asks tapping Markus's shoulder

"Oh, yeah.. Sorry if I worried you girls" Markus apologies to the two

"We need to hurry up and eat, bell's gonna ring soon, Markus do you have anything to eat?" Mary says

"Oh, no I don't I forgot my lunch" Markus says
