I got bored today so I decided to publish another chapter today. Isn't that nice? Well, enjoy!

Zora's POV

I look up to the door as Mark goes to open it. I quickly sit myself up and turn my body towards the door just as the door opens. I see what seems to be a version of Mark in a school girl uniform holding a... knife and has blood stains all over his clothes? Mark just welcomes him in and the other Mark walks in, takes off his shoes, and sits on the couch completely ignoring my presence.

"Hello Yandereplier, thanks for coming," Mark says as he sits in the chair. Yandereplier just waves his hand to Mark and slouches on the couch," this is my assistant Zora. Her, kidnapper, was out of the house so she came with me today so be nice."

"That's great. Exactly what I needed for my appointment," Yandereplier complains as he crosses his arms and looks away from Mark and to the wall. Mark does a hush motion with his hand but it has no effect.

"Should I leave then?" I ask looking from Mark to Yandereplier. Mark shakes his head but Yandereplier just shrugs. Mark then shrugs and stands up and pulls out a phone.

"I guess I'll have to call Darkiplier to come to pick her up," Mark says in a kind of sarcastic way but making seems like a threat. Yandereplier seems to be freaked out about that.

"D-Darkiplier???" He says seeming terrified. Mark just nods," I guess she can stay," he mutters.

"Great! Zora, our friend Yandereplier is here to deal with his problems. He tends to kill people when they hang out around his 'senpai.' I don't know who that is but we're here to help him, right 'Dere?" Mark explains. Yandereplier just nods and looks back at us. 

"Well, let us get started!"

***A boring Time Skip Later***

"And we are done here," Mark says and closes the binder he grabbed earlier. 'Dere just nods and stand up. 

"I'll follow you out the door with Zora and schedule our next meeting," Mark explains to 'Dere. I stand up and head to put my shoes back on, as do 'Dere and Mark. When we finish, Mark grabs my hand and leads us out. 

I walk awkwardly close to Mark, kind of because Yandereplier scares me. He told me earlier that I could call him 'Dere because saying the whole thing would get annoying after awhile. I didn't argue with that but even thinking about it scares me. 

As we get back up to the front desk, I see Miss Samuels again. She smiles and waves at me. I just stare at the ground right after that. Mark motions me to sit on one of the chairs in the room so they can do adult things. I just awkwardly go over and sit down. It's pretty nice for being a waiting chair. 

As I sit there, I just can't stop thinking about what I just did with Mark today. Then I remember something he said.

...she's been in our world for as long as she has...

What did he mean by that? I didn't think to question him then because I was too embarrassed. Maybe I should-

"Okay Kiddo let's go," Mark says and grabs my hand, pulling me out of my seat and out the door. We walk to the car and get inside and Mark starts it up and we go. A few minutes into the ride and I'm bored, so this is probably a good time to ask.

"Hey, Mark?"

"Yes, Zora?"

"What did you mean when you said I might've been acting like Dark because I've been in 'our' world?" I ask putting quotations around our. He bites his lower lip and looks away from me," well?"

"You shouldn't know that. It's crucial you don't know," He explains looking straight towards the road.

"I am a human freaking being! I deserve to know the truth!" I basically yell at him. He doesn't seem to be fazed by my yelling. 

"If only you knew the half of it," He mutters and continues driving. I turn towards the door and pout like a little baby, I don't really care how I'm acting I'm just upset. I hear him laugh and I get mad at that but try to keep my cool. 

***An Annoying Time Skip***

We arrive at where we started. We both get out of the car and head to the door. He opens it and lets me in first before closing it behind him. I see Googleplier walk down the stairs and towards us. Mark walks up from behind me and pats my back.

"How was she?" Google asks Mark. I rub my arm and look at the floor.

"She was okay, besides some yelling on the way back but I took care of it," Mark explains to Google. I blush in embarrassment and avoid their eyes.

"Just like him, huh?" Google asks. I look up confused and only see Mark nod. I look back down and away from them when I feel a hand on my shoulder. 

"Dark will be here soon, but in the meantime want to help me bake cookies?" Google asks. I look at him confused but he ignores it and asks me again. I kind of just shrug and he grabs my hand and pulls me towards what I assume is the kitchen. He pulls out a few materials for cookies, like bowls, sugar, vanilla extract, brown sugar, a spoon, flour, and measuring tools. While taking stuff out he points to the fridge.

"Could you grab the milk and two eggs from there?" He asks, I just nod and walk over to it. I grab the milk and eggs and place them on the counter along with the other ingredients. He smiles and picks up and egg before cracking it along the edge of the bowl and dumping its contents into the bowl. He does the same with the other and throws them into a trash can I didn't notice until now.

***Messy Time Skip***

We finally have the batter. Google gives me the job to watch over the batter as he goes to get the cookie trays. He comes back a minute later with two cookie trays. He starts putting the cookies on one while I start the other.

A few sets of trays later we have two and a half plates full of cookies. Google grabs two of the plates and I grab the one that's half full and walk into the living room to give Mark a plate, but as I walk in, I see a dark figure in front of the front door smirking at me.

"There you are."
