After receiving such a compliment, it was weird. But coming from Fake beekirigiri? That's like saying "I love you" to my face, honestly, it's the first time I ever had feelings for someone.
So now that beekirigiri came back carelessly, she could only glare at her doppelgänger. Again.

"What was that sad excuse for a compliment?" Her high pitch voice ringing interrupted the silence once more.

"Aphrodisiac tomato." Is all Fake Beekirigiri could say, her deep voice clashing with her opposite.

Beekirigiri stared at her in confusion. "Will you hurt us or something..?"

"...No."

"I don't believe you."

"Should you." She said, her eyes narrowing. It would've sounded like a question, but her tone said otherwise.

"...fine. I'll trust you for now, but just so you know, I'm still skeptical." Beekirigiri still glared at her. Fake beekirigiri did the same. I looked at both continuously, smiling nervously.

"Let's just try to calm down, alright?..I'm sure she means no harm!" I gesture at the doppelgänger. She looks at me, then back at Beekirigiri. She gives a simple, robotic thumbs up. Beekirigiri sighs, pinching the bridge of her nose. "Well I suppose fighting the whole time won't help. Let's just make amends and get this over with." Fake Beekirigiri nods in agreement.

*ding!*

Once again, the elevator door opened at a slow pace..I could hear cheering.

[Beekirigiri's POV]

I left the elevator, this time something changed. As soon as I took a single step, the lights turned on, everybody started cheering, and some sort of..obstacle course appeared in front of me. I've dealt with many in this game, so I don't mind doing it again. I smile softly, confidently crossing my arms. I waited a few seconds.

*BEEEEP!*

As the whistle noise played, the gate separating the obstacle course opened. I look down at the thin platform and instantly jump on it, almost instantly noticing my balance losing slightly due to it moving forwards and backwards. Looking at the spinners in front of me, I focus on it more. I dive through the first one, but got knocked over by the second spinner. I fall off into the water, causing me to close my eyes for at least a couple of seconds.

...I opened them. I respawned. Just as I thought. I smile cockily. I dive through the interchangeable spinners, then for the second one, i hold onto one of the spinners form which moves forward other than the other spinner which moves the opposite way. I jump over it, hitting the ground..inelegantly. No time to lose.

I get up, my head turning towards.. a gorilla figure. It swings sideways from my perspective. Luckily, I managed to just run past it and not get knocked over by it. I see a spinning slide right after. I know what to do..

I jump on it once I could get the chance to and climb on the very top. Upon seeing what's next, I could already feel the adrenaline. But, well, it's from excitement. Not fear.

I jump on the slide, now being rotated towards the finish line. I land flat on my face. But hey, I crossed the finish line. I slowly get up, feeling a little dizzy. The crowd gets louder.

My eyes scan everyone while I wave. "I know, I'm amazing!" I repeat to myself over and over, but I stop. Wait..

Someone's getting out.

I stop waving, looking over to one of the NPC's. Why is that one walking towards the elevator..? Is that..
a new guest!
A banana themed one, too.

I run out of the obstacle course and back into the elevator. It closes just in time. The first thing I saw was Wallter glare at the banana-like NPC in shock, as my doppelganger..couldn't care less and was just rocking back and forth. Huh, right. She's the opposite of me.

"Well, this is rather..aPEELing!" The NPC said, laughing to itself.
...Wallter and I glared at it in confusion and disappointment. It wasn't funny.

"Hahaha." Fake beekirigiri laughed robotically. It wasn't sarcastic, she just seems to laugh like this..I guess.

"What's your name?" I asked, staring daggers at this banana.
"Split! Nice to meet you. Orange you glad that you won?" Split smiles smugly at me. Wow. That was even worse.

"...right..well..it's nice to meet you too." Wallter says nervously. He walks over to Split and shakes her hand. She shakes it back intensely.
"Holy snap! Your so tall! Your name, right, what is it called..oh! PARIS!" Split said, smiling sweetly despite her most likely harsh words coming from her mouth. Wallter smiled. Who knows? Maybe he liked those jokes, or he just feels bad for this NPC. I would too.

"It's wallter. But hey, my..'nana is french, so you could say that's my middle name!"
...
Oh god. Now they're both making jokes..?

Split and Wallter start laughing. I just sigh, looking at my doppelgänger. She's the only one who's not laughing, other than me. Isn't she the opposite of me? She laughed before.. or did she just space out or something?

I walk over to my doppelgänger. As of right now, she's the only one I could talk to. The other two NPC's are just chatting away, so I might as well chat with someone to pass the time.

"...so..how's life?"

"Song under the dance sun. We are a song under the stairs."

"...real." I smirk. She was funny. Is that why she's the opposite of me?

"Where's the hammer as the trophy truck?" Okay what was she even saying at this point?

"..In the garage..?"

"Correct."

I look away. A few seconds later the elevator door opens. I was ready to walk out of the elevator, but then..I couldn't?

Looking in front of me I see some sort of drive thru. This..is new.
"Hello, your total will be 12.05" A guy, with a name tag Emerson spoke. Before I could even say anything, he interrupts. "No, we do not accept Reddit Karma." I stare at him, annoyed.

"Oh woah, your our thousandth customer! For that, you get a prize." My eyes widen slightly. I stare at him expectantly. Suddenly he reaches out for something and then throws it at me without warning. I get knocked back, but it didn't hurt. Why? Was it because of the thing he threw at me?

"Thank you, come again." He responded back. I slowly tilt my head towards Emerson.
"I hope you die-" The elevator door closes. I let out a long sigh. At least it didn't hurt.

I got up slowly, stretching out my hands will the ball in hand and rotating the sphere to make it face me. Unsurely having a staring contest with the green ball for half a minute max, i then look at Fake Beekirigiri.

"You know anything about this ball?.."

"It doesn't burn your esophagus. It's like the woods in an apple pie. Frozen, but cow-like."
It's better than those fruit jokes those two make, if her sentence is even considered a joke.

"Yeah, I guess." I throw the ball at the wall. It bounces back, onto the floor, then at the wall, then at my wrists where I got burned from the red version of whatever this sphere is, and it..instantly healed.
