"Let's go down to the basement, there's usually some good supplies down there." Mark raises an eyebrow. "That's also where the bad shit happens." Cry shrugs while you snort. The two help you to your feet, trying to avoid your injured leg. It throbbed a little, but other than that it was fairly fine. You put some weight on it, and in response it sent a small jolt of pain up your thigh. "I can walk on it but I don't know if I can run. It only hurts a little so I should be fine. I don't think I'll need you guys to carry me." You joked and the two smiled at you. "Allons-y!" Cry raised an eyebrow at you as the three of you left the room, walking down the dimly lit corridor. "Was that a Doctor Who reference?" You snickered. "It might've been." The corridor you were in was lit with torches, and there was rubble in the way. Up ahead you could see the hallway descend into darkness, signaling that there were stairs. You had a small limp, but nothing to noticeable. Mark and Cry were having a conversation about... shrimp... so you were left alone to your thoughts. You woke up here with no idea just where exactly "here" is, met some famous youtubers, got an injured leg, and met a mysterious woman who was more than likely evil. All in all, it was pretty crazy, and you kinda hoped it was a dream, but then again if it is then Cry and the others would simply be fake and you wouldn't have actually met them. A horrible thought entered your mind, and your eyes widened at the realization. "Mark! Cry! Have you guys seen Felix anywhere?!" The two turned their attention to you, and replied simultaneously. "No."

"Felix is here?" Cry asked, his voice laced with worry. You nodded and started to explain just how you lost him. "Me, Mark, and Felix were climbing a ladder. Felix went first and we somehow lost him. We got to the top and Felix wasn't there, it was like he vanished."

"Maybe he fell...?" Cry asked, hopeful but deep down knew that it wasn't possible. A shake from your head confirmed his fears. "No, we would've heard, felt, or see him fall. He was just gone. We haven't found him since we lost him, which was maybe..." Mark answered for you, as you didn't know how long you were out. "A couple hours ago." You nodded along with Mark as the group arrived at the stairs. Cry went first with you in the middle and Mark in the back. The stairs were dark, and spiraled down into darkness. The three of you were panting by the time you got to the bottom of the stairs, and you called for a rest because your leg was on fire. Not literally, of course, but it hurt like hell. You slid down a wall and landed on the ground with a small thump, taking in a deep breath of cool air. The stairs had led to a small room that opened up into multiple hallways that were filled with water. Cry sat next to you while Mark fiddled with an old record player. You watched him disinterested as he messed with the recorder. Next to you, Cry asked, "What are you doing with it? It probably doesn't work." Mark shrugged as he pulled a lever. "Dunno, I thin-" Mark cut himself off as the old phonograph started to turn, and started to play a record. The voice of a female came from it, "Hello, my fellow humans. I am very happy that you have made it this far, and I just know that you'll make it even farther. (y/n), how is your leg fairing? I do hope my... pet... didn't burn it to the point that it's useless. If so I would have to... take you out of the game. Your little friends wouldn't want that." The girl on the recording giggled. "Oh, and you three do know Felix, correct? Well, he just a little... tied up... with some things at the moment. I wouldn't worry too much. Ah I hear one of my pets calling for dinner. Terribly sorry to leave you in the dark like this... Maybe I'll let a friend join you? Mmm, no, I don't think I will. After all, if you make the correct choices you will have some more company. I bid you all farewell, and remember, they can all be saved." The recording ended with a maniac laugh, and you, Mark, and Cry were processing what was just said. "What the fuck..." Cry muttered. "What did she mean by 'They can all be saved'?" You frowned at it before saying, "I think the real question is, who needs to be saved?"

(Hello my Ingots! I know I haven't updated this in a while, but here's the next chapter! Honestly this was longer when I typed it... Man why is it always shorter when I post it?! And for those of you who caught the reference in the recording, I give you props! If you recognize where it's from, you have an idea who the girl is! Thanks for reading!)
