Smug held his head, feeling like the entire world was spinning. He squinted his eyes to try and ease the pain, slowly looking around. A huge tractor was in front of him with corn stretched out in a square like shape, a huge house was to his right and another tractor was further on in the farthest left corner. "What the fuck is this place?" Smug groaned, walking over to a generator.

He was almost half way with the generator when he saw something creep up to him. He pulled a gear way too fast and crushed his finger, causing him to jump back. "Chill, it's just me." Smug reconized her to be Nea, causing him to let out a breath of relief. "Come on, work on this. Your finger will be okay." Nea told him, getting on the generator. Smug joined Nea, who taught him the more effective way to work on a generator and lend him her toolbox.

The generator roared to life, making Nea run one way and Smug ran the other. A loud booming noise came from the corn and what looked like small fireworks appeared. Smug ran past it before running straight into Jake. "Fuck!" He yelped and they both tumbled onto the floor. "Sorry.." Smug told him, his cheeks red in embarrassment. "Can you.. get off of me?" Jake asked, making Smug look down and realized how bad his position was.

He had fallen on top of Jake with his legs around Jake's thigh. Smug's face was close to Jake's, so close Smug could feel Jake's embarresment as well. Smug jumped up and offered his hand to Jake, who took it before pinning Smug to the wall. "You weren't tempting me, were you?" Jake asked in a calm tone, making Smug shiver from his words. "N-No." Smug choked out, looking Jake in his eyes. Jake released Smug and walked toward a gen before looking back. "In the future I wouldn't try because next time won't be so friendly." He flashed a smirk at Smug before running off quickly.

Smug was left there, dumbfounded at what just happened. Was Jake flirting with him?! Smug shook his head before running off to the opposite side, trying to be as far away from Jake as possible but still being useful. Though he ran had ran right into the line of sight of the killer. Though this time, it wasn't the one he first met. This person was sneaky as they crouched and their presence was almost nonexistent unless you seen them from afar or just had feeling like your spine was chilling from the killers glare.

Smug noticed something moving closer and didn't hesitate to run, not taking the chance of it not being a friendly face. Though, he ran blindly and hit a tree head on. He was thrown off his feet and heard a chuckle from above him. "You okay?" A muffled voice was above him. Smug looked up to see a person wearing a pig mask and a sharp looking blade in their sleeve. "Just a bit dizzy but yeah." Smug told them, holding his head. At the moment, embarrassment had overtook his body and didn't really want to give them more of a reason to laugh. "Here," they offered their hand and Smug took it with a small smile, "I'm Amanda." She said, pulling her hand away.

"Aren't you suppose to kill me? Or attempt to?" Smug asked, looking at her confused. "Well, I'm too bored with killing and you're too dorky to kill." She giggled, remembering him running straight into the tree. "Sorry." He muttered, his cheeks burned red even more. The sound of a generator caught her attention and the doors powering made her look over. "See you later." She said with a smile, sneaking away.

Smug just watched her and went to the door farthest away from where the generator was. While he opened the door he heard two screams and frantic footsteps approaching him as the door opened. Smug looked over to see Nea panting, making Smug run over to her and helped her inside. "Fucking.. end game Piggy." Nea said with a cough. "End game?" Smug asked. "Get out!" Nea yelled, shoving Smug out of the door and thrown herself out of the gate. A barricade formed just as a loud scream that filled the entire 'world' followed. "That's blood warden and the reason we left was because she had NOED, which can instantly down you." Nea explained. "Really??" Smug asked, shocked and amazed. "Yeah, but it's a totem that activates at end game unless you take out all five dull totems." Nea continued.

"That must be a pain." Smug wondered out loud. "Yeah, killers are stupid, tunneling people who don't have human feelings." Nea muttered but that made Smug stop and grab her wrist. "Excuse me? Don't just assume and drag other killers when you don't know them personally." Smug growled, looking her dead in the eyes. Nea looked shocked before yanking her hand away from him. "I can't believe you defended them." Nea said with mild disgust. "And I can't believe you can sit there a call someone a Pig." He spat, turning on his heels before looking back at Nea, "and her name's Amanda."

"So, this is Lisa," Herman pointed over to a scrawny, short lady who looked something like a wendigo, next to someone who had a chainsaw and a mask made of human skin, "and besides her is Bubba or Jeremiah but we like to call him Bubba." Evan scoffed at Herman, but pointed out to someone who didn't seem real at all, her hair was flowing above her and her body was disconnected in many ways. "That's Rin Yamaoka; here we have real but also spiritual killers, so most of us can escape to the real realm but some either acquire a host or get put to rest." Evan explained.

"Who's this pretty girl?" A raspy voice asked with a sickening chuckle. Luna's body froze as she felt a knife scrap her neck. She jumped away to see a heavy set man with clown makeup, along with a clown getup that seemed to be stretched out to its limits. "Fuck off Kenneth!" Evan growled, shoving the guy back. "It's Jeffrey to you." Jeffrey spat that followed by a dry cough that shook his entire body. Herman moved the group hurriedly, but Luna started to look back and forth, now paranoid. "Hey, it's alright. I'm sure not every killer is like that." Hope told her in a sweet voice, causing Luna to smile. "Thanks." Herman was up ahead, chuckling at Evan, "I didn't know that you can defend someone that wasn't yourself." Evan was takened back by this but smiled a bit, "There's a lot you don't know about me, jackass."

"Hi! What's your name?" Autumn's voice made the group of four look over. There was four killers in a group, the one Autumn was talking to had a mask with two eyes and a big smile drawn on it. Another person had the same mask but with a huge x over were their mouth would've been. Another guy had a ghost and skull-like mask on and their skin was dark. The last one was the one that caught Luna's eye; they had pink hair and their mask had what looked like to be multicolored braces that act liked stitches.

"The name's Frank, kid." The guy with the mask that had the huge smile sounded somewhat annoyed but it felt like a protective front that Autumn seen right through. "I'm Susie!" The girl with the mask that had braces said with a little giggle, looking at Luna; knowing that Luna was interested. "Hello, I'm Julie." The girl with the x over her mouth said with a small wave towards Hope. The one with the ghost mask only stared them down and muttered. "Joey's the name."

"There's a few more here, come on." Herman urged them to move forward. They met Anna, Sally, Amanda, and the infamous Michael Myers. "That's all I think besides Freddy and Philip." Evan said, not putting much thought into it. Autumn's blood ran cold and looked at Evan. "Freddy? As in Freddy Kruger??" She asked, trying to control her breathing.

"Someone ask for me?" The gruff voice appeared behind them, causing Autumn to grab onto Luna's shoulder as he walked up to Autumn. His fingers moved acrossed Autumn's neck, causing her body to involuntarily shiver. Hope glared and shoved him back causing Freddy to chuckle before staring Autumn up and down. "You look familiar, don't you?"
