I groggily woke up on the polished floor of Rockstar Row. I looked around, confused. Wasn't I being strangled by Monty a few seconds ago? I was in some sort of fur suit, and I was starting to get sweaty. But the suit wouldn't come loose! No matter how hard I tugged, it wouldn't budge.


I found a mirror and looked at it. I was wearing a gray suit with white patches, and my eyes to the suit were like the white rabbit mascots, red eyes in the same shape as Vanessa's suit. The suit was starting to get on my nerves as I was touring the Pizzaplex with no intention. Why am I in this suit? And where was everybody else? Gregory...I need to find him! Knowing Grace is long gone, at least I can find Gregory, right?


I started walking down the hallways of the Pizzaplex, trying to grasp the difference between reality and not. What I was seeing and feeling, as minimal as it was, was it not real? Or what? Monty was choking me to death, now I'm here? What was Vanessa's plan?


I heard footsteps behind me. I turned around and saw the white mascot. She chuckled.


"Silly me...I forgot to tell you my mascot name. It's Vanny...and what should yours be?" Vanny asked.


"Huh? What do you mean?" I wondered.


"Did you look at yourself? You're just like me. You have a costume on. Master will talk to you shortly about your mission, my dear. What should your name be? Oh! I know! It can be Blizzard! Since your color scheme is white and gray! Do you like it?"


Without thinking, I responded, "Yes."


"Yay!" Vanny cheered. "Do you trust me to do the right thing? To have Master take you under his wing? Do you believe Master will help you? He's helped me quite a lot. You no longer will be useless. He can help your insecurities and make them vanish. That's what he did to me."


Vanny reached out her hand. "Take my hand, my dear. Trust us..."


I was reluctant to do so. Vanny is a murderer? Why would I side myself with a murderer? But without controlling my exact motions, I grabbed Vanny's hand. She smiled.


"You've made a great choice," Vanny promised. "Follow me. I'll show you where the security office is. In there, you can hook yourself up so you can hear Master."


Vanny dragged me to the security room, where she hooked my costume up with a chip that was sparkling purple. While she hooked me up, I passed out on the cold hard floor.
