Jade's POV:

I was still processing everything that happened. My thoughts were morphing together and they were louder than ever. It wasn't only the fact that I landed in this shit show, maybe not at all, but the fact that I dragged Lea here and she was trapped in here because of me. It was all my fault and I would've understood if she hated me after this.

"Come with me." Jeff said.

"No???" I answered with an offended tone.

He grabbed my wrist and dragged me. I didn't even bother to complain anymore. If anything happened to me i deserved it, so i might aswell just let it happen.

He opened the door to reveal a kitchen. It wasn't messy, surprisingly, but i didn't want to know what was hidden in there.

I spotted the woman that called me a "creature" when we first woke up here, she was still wearing the same dress but her hair was all messy and her lipstick was smeared. She had a scary energy and I was terrified, but she was beautiful. Her beauty scared me even more.

She seemed mad. She was zoned out as me and jeff walked in, and he snapped in front of her face to get her attention. "Apologise to her."

"What the fuck? Why?" she answered

"You were rude to her earlier. She didn't do anything to you and she's new here. Say sorry." Jeff told her.

Jane looked into my eyes with a weird emotion in them, i couldn't recognise it. Her gaze softened. She then seemed like she wanted to say something, but hesistated. I looked at jeff who was staring at her with a wide eyed gaze.

"Fine, i'm sorry. We got off on the wrong foot. I'm Jane, Jane the killer."

"I'm Jade..."

"Our names sound similar." she said, with a slight switch in her voice, which was nicer than before.

Before i could even speak, Jeff interrupted me; "Now apologise to me. That shit still hurts Jan-"

"Not happening." she said as she arranged her messy hair and brushed through it with her hands.

"Okay."

"I like your dress Jane" i said, trying to break the awkwardness. She seemed like the most normal one of them all. Kind of. Except for the fact that she had a smile carved into her face.

My point is, she didn't seem like she loved being here, like the others.

"Thanks-"

She got intrerrupted by a soft girl voice singing random stuff behind the door, and heavy footsteps, almost as if she was stepping hardly on the floor just to make noise.

Jeff looked concerned. Jane hesistated for a second, but then got up and flashed past me, slamming the door open.

On the other side of the door, there was a girl with shiny long black hair and weird worn-out scene clothes, she almost looked like she just stepped out of the year 2008. She also had a smile carved into her face, but it wasn't healed. It looked like it would start bleeding at any time.

Jane flew at her and pulled her hair hard. "YOU BITCH YOU'RE SO FUCKING ANNOYING JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP FOR TEN MINUTES."

"I'M TRYING TO DISTRACT MYSELF FROM YOUR UGLY ASS FACE BEING ALL UP IN MY BUSINESS, IS THAT NOT ALLOWED?" the scene girl said as she punched Jane.

"I'M THE UGLY ASS NOW? Nina get some modern clothes and a personality that's not insane and THEN talk to me."

As they fought, a brown haired dude came. He paused and stared at the girls fighting, unbothered, then he came into the kitchen. He was holding a bowl filled with popcorn, and he munched on it relaxed as he sat down at the kitchen table.

He looked at me, then at his popcorn, then looked at me again, but this time with confusion. "Girl, who are you?"

"I'm Jade."

"I'm Liu, you want?" he gestured to his popcorn.

I took popcorn and looked around curiously.

"THIS IS WHY JEFF MURDERED YOUR PARENTS YOU KNOW WHAT I'M PROUD OF HIM FOR DOING THAT BECAUSE YOU DESERVE EVERY SINGLE BAD THING THAT HAPPENS TO YOU." Nina said as she was being dragged by Jane.

"This is why Jeff doesn't want your insane ass all up on him." she replied.

"Okay, you know what let's eat dinner...!" Jeff said, surprised as their words about him were out of pocket.

"Y'all eat dead people, i don't want no dinner." I said.

"Uhm... we don't eat dead people at dinner..." Jeff answered, like that was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Oh."

Liu chuckled.

"Where's Lea?" I asked.

Jeff ignored me as he opened the fridge to look around for something to eat for dinner.

"Who's Lea?" Liu said.

"My friend, we both landed here at the same time."

"O-"

He got intrerrupted by a loud knock, then a scream. A girl's scream.

I turned my head in the direction of the sound.

I want to go home.

"Hm, I think I know where she is." Liu said after. Still unbothered.

I followed him through the hallway, when I saw Jane holding Nina by her legs, and she seemed almost unconscious, but her head was moving. She was trying to stay awake.

Me and Liu stopped walking.

Jane was standing in fromt of a door. She threw Nina in and slammed it, then walked in the opposite direction.

Liu looked at me, then started walking again. I followed him.

He led me to...the door that Jade threw Nina in?

He opened the door, then let me enter first.

Lea was there, along with two girls that seemed younger than us and some guy with a weird green elf costume. They were at a table. It had cute little mugs everywhere with delicate pink roses painted on them. It looked like a tea party.

"JADE!" Lea said, surprised to see me.

I stepped over Nina's now unconscious body and Lea came to me and hugged me, did she think something happened to me?

Lea let go of the hug and i let out a laugh through the stress. Are they really having a tea party..

The girls behind her looked concerned, one of them more than the other, which was probably the one that screamed, and the elf guy was smiling in the weirdest way.

"Who's that?" the dude asked about me.

Liu came forward. "Guys, this is Jade, she's new here and she came along with Lea. Jade, these are Lulu, Ben and Sally."

"Who even are you? How do you know my name?" Lea asked.

"I'm Liu. Silly, Jade told me about you."

"Hm." she said, looking him up and down.

"COME FUCKING EAT DINNER NOW OR NO HOT WATER FOR SHOWERING." Jeff yelled through the hallway.
