More Than One Way

Chapter Three- Should I Be Concerned?

Anti awoke to pain. He could feel nothing but pain. The camera he was in had been broken. 

Before it could get worse, Anti glitched to a different device- a nearby phone. He was about to leave- but he saw something. This person's last message was... Anti's location?! Anti thought maybe it was a coincidence- but it obviously wasn't. 

Because while Anti was looking, someone turned off the phone. "Fuck." Everything went black.

------------------------------

Anti woke up... In a... File..? "Okay- not a coincidence. Alright." Anti mumbled to himself, "I'm not sure if I should be concerned or not." 

The computer he was apparently transferred to turned on. Anti tried to get out, but he couldn't- the file was locked. So instead, he listened. He heard cursing.

"...Seriously! Fucking- I can't believe- ugh! When I asked you to GET HIM I didn't mean KIDNAP HIM! God, what am I going to do with you lot?" A familiar voice scolded.

"Was my performance unsatisfactory? Should I erase his memory and try again?" 

"No! You did fine- you just misunderstood me." The voice sighed.

"I'm sorry."

"I know, I know, you're fine." 

"He's in zhere?" A third voice piped up.

"Yeah, yeah. Let me get him out."

Anti felt the file being unlocked.

"Remember to apologize when I get him out."

"...Sure."

"I mean it. You WILL apologize. Right?" 

"Maybe."

"Google, I will ground you."

"...Fine..."

"Good."

Anti was released from the computer, and instead of coming out directly, he got into Dark's phone. 

"...Anti."

"No"

He knew who was with Google and Dark, and quite frankly, he didn't want to see him.

"Vhy hasn't he come out?" 

"He has- He's in my phone right now." Dark scoffed, "will you at least face him through the phone? We can do it like a video call."

Anti was reluctant, but he supposed that would work. Dark was there, nothing bad could happen.

Anti let himself be shown- turning the phone's background black. 

"Hello, doctor."
