"Let's play a game called hide and seek. Okay? Okay."

Murder told the others including Y/N who was forced to join their little game. They sighed and complained that hide and seek is too easy especially for a kid smarter than them. "Shut it, Y/N." Murder said. "You're ruining the fun."

"I'd be willing to if it means not participating in this child's play."

Murder spun the bottle and it pointed at Y/N. They all clapped and told them they're the seeker. "Oh?" Y/N was rather satisfied by the results. "The seeker is the best role in hide and seek. I shall play the seeker."

"Pfft, good luck with that." Murder said and spun the bottle again. It pointed at him. "Oh god damn it-"

"Pfft, good luck with that." Horror mocked him and chuckled with the others. Y/N couldn't understand why they would find it funny, but shrugged it off and reached their hand to Dust. "I guess we're partners in seeking now." They said to try and get along with Dust even after all the embarrassments he's been through because of Y/N. Dust accepted the handshake but expressed his distaste towards the human.

"The rules of the game: no magic, no cheating, no killing intent." Killer said the last one jokingly. "If the hiders win, the seekers must grant one wish from them. If the seekers win, the hiders must grant one wish from them. Game?"

"Game." Everyone said except Y/N. They raised their hand to ask a question. "Yes, Y/N?"

"How much time do the seekers have to find the hiders?"

"Hm... At least 1 hour and 30 minutes. Especially because this place is huge."

The game started with the seekers counting until 60 seconds. Y/N walked fast while Murder tried to catch up with them. They seem to know where the others are hiding. "Any clues?" Murder said. Y/N didn't answer for a moment. They used their small magnifying glass and identified the fingerprints on the wall. "It's been there recently. Looks like Cross's prints if you ask me. Come on." Y/N said.

"Wait, how did you know our fingerprints?"

"I checked it just after you kidnapped me. Thought I would use it for future purposes. Didn't know I'd use it for a game." Y/N said. "Your fingerprints are harder to verify though because you guys are bones and human skin is easier. I did find a way to identify it, and the differences are subtle since you guys are the same sanses but in different timelines."

"And how did you identify it?"

"Through code differentiation."

"Wow." Dust said sarcastically. "Got help from Error?"

"No, I figured it out myself." Y/N said. They followed Cross's fingerprints and it ended in his room. Y/N sighed in pity and thought of how predictable it was to hide in one's room. They opened the door and spotted no one. "Disappeared without a trace. A sign that they used their magic to teleport out of here. We should've been more inconspicuous."

"They cheated?" Dust gritted his teeth in annoyance. "Those pieces of-"

"There's no point in stressing about that. Besides, it doesn't matter. We'll find them soon, anyway. Let's pretend we don't know they cheated."

Y/N went to Horror's room with their partner. Murder scrutinized the room but found nothing. Y/N, on the other hand, found several clues that could lead to them. "Fingerprints here under the bed. They hesitated that the hiding spot was too easy, so they went in the cabinet. Also hesitated, so they panicked and walked here back and forth to find the most difficult hiding spot. By the looks of the footprints, Horror was leading the others. And by the looks of it, Horror would suggest the kitchen. Knowing him, he got hungry through all this suspense. There must be a good hiding spot in the kitchen. Let's go."

"Damn." Murder just followed Y/N and somehow entrusted them to all this. They entered the kitchen quietly to not lose them again. Y/N opened the fridge and found Horror eating fruits. "Found you." They said.

"Mhm." Horror didn't seem to care. Murder scolded him for cheating with the other players. "Where are the others?" Y/N asked.

"They left without me. Said they don't wanna hide in here."

"Who in their right mind would be willing to get hypothermia to hide? I'm asking where they went."

"I think they said..." Horror yawned and munched on a frozen cookie. "I think they said swimming pool?"

"Yeah, I still wonder why would Nightmare want a swimming pool here. I bet the canon version doesn't even have swimming pools, but let's continue. Dust, drag Horror with you." Y/N said. They continued the hunt for the other hiders. The swimming pool was moving like small waves. Someone had been here recently. "Decided to hide themselves here. The idiot drowned himself and got out of the pool." They noticed drops of water on the floor. "What's strange though is that the water drops stop in..." They paused.

"What's wrong?" Murder said strangling Horror.

"Guard the exit. Someone's still here." Y/N checked every door to see if they were right. There was a wet jacket in the sauna and it was still dripping. They showed it to Murder at the main pool. "This is Killer's jacket. He's toying with us-"

Y/N was suddenly pulled down to the pool by Killer. Murder tried to save their ass but Horror tackled him and spread jam on his face. Y/N punched Killer in the water but he just hugged them tightly. "We're gonna drown, idiot!" Y/N said in desperate need of oxygen.

"Let's drown together~"

"I should have known. It's the goddamn cliche."

Y/N fought him through combat in the water. It took some work but they finally got out of the pool. They snatched Killer's wet jacket and tied him on a metal stair handle. "Horror, stop with the jam now." They demanded. Horror complied and Murder punched his face. "Asshole." He said.

"Where's Cross?" Y/N said. Killer pointed he's at Error's room hiding in his stash of chocolate. "Sounds like he was made for chocolate memes a lot of times." Y/N ran to Error's room ignoring Murder and the rest. "Only 30 minutes left!" Killer shouted for them to hear.

Already?

They took possible shortcuts into Error's room as if they've lived here for so long. Y/N kicked his room open and forced him to tell his secret stash. Error was pissed off and mad to scream at them. He was changing his clothes. "Hear me out, no matter how many clothes you change a day, you still smell. Oh wait, you're hydrophobic. Poor thing." Y/N said to piss him off even more and figured out where the secret stash was themselves. "Ggget *BEEP* GGET BACK *BEEP* BACK HHHERE!"

Y/N unlocked Error's not-even-canon secret stash and found Cross in there after approximately 26 minutes of searching him. "That was close. The swimming pool is really far away from this room. Had I not taken the shortcuts, we would've lost. Well, you cheated so it can't be considered if we lose, no? Get out of there, monochrome with bovinophobia."

Cross asked what the phobia meant and Y/N mentioned the fear of cows. "How'd you know-"

"Don't know if it's canon or not actually. Probably isn't. Can't be sure." Y/N stated. "But judging by your clothes and color, people might have mistaken you for a cow. From then on, you hated cows and are even afraid of them. They just look like your reflection-"

"Cut it out. I lost my appetite." Cross said and threw away a half-eaten chocolate bar. They went out and ignored Error's constant nagging. The trio appeared with jams on their face. Murder offered a high five to Y/N. "You're right. The seeker is the best role now. With you." He winked.

"Now don't fall in love with me, I'm not quite sure I can tolerate it with patience." Y/N said with a high five. "Now onto the rewards-"

"Can you wait until we clean ourselves up?"

"Okay."
