[Chapter:[1]

You sit down in Joey's room, getting up you make your way to the door.

"do you want to be eaten out there by monsters?" Joey said digging through her room.

You shake your head.
"No, not really I just want to see if we're clear to move."

You look at the window seeing Jude's tactic skills to talk to you and Joey. But you don't know Morse code.

Joey grabbed her talky and sighed by the lightness of it. But smiled anyways. She's so bright and kind. The best bigest sister you ever had. Actually your only one in a matter of fact. You little brother is in the tree house outside, which is infested by monsters.

"yes! perfect, batteries!" She yelled placing the batteries inside the talky.

"SISTERS! ARE YOU SAFE!? Over." Jude says, we both say yes and tell him we are still in Joey's room. He tells us to go to the attic, you opened the door and start to walk down the messy hall covered in trash and upstairs to find out the attic door is locked.

A stuffed ani- actually you don't know what that is. What ever it is you call him cancer. It fits him... Not that way. Making your way downstairs a loud boom was heard and the lights went dark.

Joey leans into her talky.
"it, seem like the power is out."

Jude responses a immediately.
"CLASSIC PSY-OPS over."

Now Jude and Joey are talking and you seem to get in a trance. Just staring at moms hair piece, you don't know how long you have been standing in the dark...
Suddenly Joey tugs your hand, holding it in hers.

You are now in the living room with Joey, your vision is bad you can only see so much, dang your eyes your PA has cursed you with! Walking to the trophy room you and Joey stares at the blue lady lamp. Joey blushes before walking to the door.

You both shook hearing something move behind the trophy room's door.

"lets not go in there."

"YOU CAN GO INTO THE BASEMENT AND TURN ON THE POWER over." Jude says, Joey smiles and turns off the talky.
===>

You run out of the basement shaking, Joey
says something to Jude.

She hands the talky to you and smiles.

"BIG SISTER, YOU ALRIGHT? over."

"I'm just peachy, why?"

"CAUSE ME AND JOEY LOVE YOU AND HOPE YOUR DOING ALRIGHT over" Jude pauses for moment. "JUST STAY BRAVE OTHER SISTER over."

"I love you too Jude, over." You say rubbing your eyes. Joey hugs you lightly before rubbing your shoulder and walking you to the trophy room.

You enter to see another monster! You show off the monster your super duper cool melodica!

You played a tune and it left. You don't play good yet you don't play bad. You sit on the floor taking a breath. Joey looks around studying the clues.

"im in the trophy room."

"now where is the key?" She asked on the talky.

"CAN NOT GIVE YOU A CLUE over."

Joey sighs then you noticed the dears antlers seemed a bit shiny

You pointed it out and told Joey, she high five you and got Jude back on the talky.

===>

Joey has defeated the monster with her super cool tap dancing, ballet, and her trusty flashlight.

You walk over to the fridge where Byers Jude's pigeon is and take him as well get the pouch from the poor pigeon. You hand the pouch to Joey and pet Byers to calm him down. Your father killed animals for fun, and they can be seen everywhere you go in this house.

You don't agree with killing anything, it's wrong. Joey grabs your shirt leading you down stairs to dads study.

The Pigeon flew to your shoulder and sits there.
"Huh, that map doesn't look familiar. I mean I don't really like history but I know that this isn't our planet." You pointed out.

"I agree, jeez our dad is wiered." Joey answered. She stared at the lion, huh. It's eyes are out.

She placed the marbles in the eyes and then suddenly it lights up.

"Whoah!" You both say, Your take the key and put it in your backpack. You smile at Joey and she gives you one as well.

You both walk back to the living room, then the glass doors break. Joey gets hit hard, knocking her out. You grab Joey shaking her to get up. Then a bright light emerged from outside. Three of the monsters in that direction, you whip out your melodica and play a loud tune, making the monster notice you but on with long arms knocks one of the monsters down. Another light flare is shot, now it's time to do it again.

Finally! You run upstairs with Joey on your back, and ran into the attic's door then lock it shut. The key falls out of your pocket but at least you both are safe.

===>

You set Joey on the floor, and went to retrieve the talky from Joey to tell Jude the good and bad news.

"Jude, it's {Y/n} Joey is still unconscious. Plus the key fell down my pocket."

"AT LEAST YOU TWO ARE SAFE! over."

"I'm going to look around. Bye Jude."

"WAIT UNOVER I NEED YOU TO NOT GO NEAR THE.... P.....RTAL.... LEASE... DON... T... N... TH.... ORTAL..." His words seem to be filled with static you set down the talky near Joey and observe the setting.

You squint to look at the cages hanged on the ceiling, weird and weirder.
You see a treasure chest, you open it and dig in.

A bunch of junk then...

"Huh? What's this?" You question yourself, you pick a pair of rectangular glasses. You turn them around and see a name, it's yours.
{Y/n} Egbert.

"W-what?" You drop the glasses causing them to this but not break.

No no no, your not an Egbert you are a Claire/Harley! You don't know an Egbert and never will! You grab the glasses and looked around for another name, you did.

J.... Egbert. The rest is scribbled out. You hope this was a joke, you just. Feel overwhelmed.

You look at the tarp, you place the glasses in your backpack you had. Your shoulder length hair was messy through this whole day. You walk up to the tarp and pulled it off, scattering dust particles everywhere. You sneezed from dust bunnies.

You feel like the color sceems feel oldly familiar, you felt a tug from your shorts that seem to cover your belly button, you shirt was also tucked in. Other than getting off task you pulled a thing out of your pocket. Moms(?) hair piece green and red. Your eyes squints at the machine thing. The hair piece suddenly wraps around your arm, pulling you to the device.

The tugging hurts you, you scream in fear. The hair piece unlocks the machine making it turn on and look menacing. The key let's go and enters the machine.

"JOEY, HELP-" You get cut off.

Then....

You scream, alone. Gone From home.
