Hacked into my Feelings | Player Bouchard x Reader

Chapter 18 - Where in the World is Player Bouchard?

Inside Player's room...

"Looks like you had a lot of fun on the trip," Carmen said. Player replied, "Yep, now that the trip has passed, I can focus more on helping Team Red with capers now. We're still on break, so I want to assist you guys as much as I can before I go back to online school."

Player stared at his screen, joyed to be calling his friends after the big vacation. Zack complained, "Man, I want to go to Universal now. You described it so in detail, I wanna go." Ivy added, "Me too. We should all go as a group one day."

Carmen stated, "By the way, there hasn't been any signs of VILE movement in the past couple days. Ever since you went to Florida, we haven't detected VILE at all. It makes me wonder, what if they're just hiding, plotting out a big plan, and waiting on the perfect moment to strike?"

Shadowsan says, "We must be on high alert. We never know when VILE will make their move. They could attack when we least expect it..."

Ivy remarks, "We must stop them before they perform their act. Now that all of Team Red is active and present, we can take them down before they even know it's coming."

Zack adds, "Yeah! We're a team! Team Red, fully fed, remembering things that are said, fighting VILE till we're dead, stopping their plans instead! Or something like that..."

"Don't worry guys, we're going to find out exactly what VILE wants in Ontario, and we're going to deal with it." Player slams his fit on his desk.

Carmen chuckles. "Okay Player, it's getting late, I think it's best if you sleep now." Player looks shocked. "Why are you telling me to go to bed? I have no school!"

"Come on Player, you gotta sleep so you can wake up feeling good tomorrow!" Ivy says. Player sighs. "Tsk. Well, I guess I'll sign out now. Player, signing out!"

"Goodnight!" Zack yells right before Player clicked the red decline button. He left his PC on sleep mode, getting ready to sleep like Team Red told him to. He was planning to go to sleep anyway, as he was tired from the trip home.

Player snuggles into his blankets, covering his whole body. He shuts his eyes, drifting off to sleep, thinking about Universal Studios shenanigans & Team Red capers & the kiss with y/n.

3:05 AM.

A rustle sounds in the curtains. Light footsteps can be heard if listened to very closely. The window shuts gently. A malicious smile forms on someone's lips.

It's dark. Very dark. Except for a pair of glowing green eyes appearing above the corpse of a sleeping boy. His breath goes in, out, in, out, oh so softly. The mysterious figure waits, preparing to perform the beginning act.

A hand holding a cloth with strange chemicals suddenly covers the mouth of the snoozing kid. Player's eyes jolt open, knowing immediately that something is wrong.

"MMPH! MMMPH!"

Player tried to scream, but he couldn't. He was quickly being dragged out of bed, out of the safety of his covers.

His heart raced against time, sweat beads instantly forming on his face. Adrenaline rushed through his blood. Millions of thoughts formed in his head.

The substance from the cloth was affecting him quickly. He tried to kick at the person grabbing him & take off the cloth, but it failed horrendously.

Player felt an extreme exhaustion in his body, and he couldn't struggle any longer. After a couple seconds, he fell asleep against his will.

The masked person smirked. She hastily picked up the body, avoiding scratching him with her sharp claws. The person escaped the house swiftly, traversing to her temporary headquarters.
