Death Is Just A Game...

Altered Realities

Clock's POV

We were back in time. We jumped into the bushes. I signaled all everyone to keep quiet. I saw our past selves approaching Pen, Blocky, and Eraser, who were really hungry at the time.

"Should we kill them?" Pen asked. "Not yet. Kill them while they're asleep later tonight." I said to them. "Won't we recover them then?" Firey asked. "Yeah. So we'll need to leave a note. Someone have a piece of paper?" said Leafy.

"So why'd you bring us here, too?" Pencil asked. "What if we sabotage you and kill your past selves?" she added. "Don't. Your future will be ruined too." I said.

Our past selves went into the waterfall and hid the HPRC there. "Do we steal it?" Bubble asked. "No. We might die, one by one and we can't get recovered." Firey said.

He was right. If we ever go back to the present, we would be in the dome already. "So, when's the perfect time to strike?" Loser asked.

"One of us will have to show ourselves." said Eggy, whom I noticed was inspecting a bush with a bug on the leaves. "What?! That'll ruin the present!" said Leafy, who was still hugging Firey until now.

"No, Eggy's right. We'll need to remind our past selves that they'll be traitors."
said Firey. "No, I told you, we could use a note!" Leafy said. Loser gave her a piece of paper and Pen gave her a pencil. She wrote-

Beware of Eraser and Blocky.
Kill them as soon as you can.
We time travelers are saying this.
ELIMINATE THEM.
                   
                                  -Leafy

"Alright, how will we give the note then?"
asked Cake. "Let me slip it in the recovery center..." Leafy said while going into the big bush. "Shall we go back now?" I asked. They agreed.

"Wish us luck... three... two... one..."

Leafy's POV

I woke up in a hotel room. It's definitely not on the hotel on Yoyle City. In fact, it was the dome. I went out of my room, and into the hallway. It had a fancy red carpet, along with lights with an orange hue.

I walked up to the elevator when I heard a familiar voice. "Leafy! We didn't mess up the present, didn't we?" it was unmistakably Firey.

"We died. Our team must have been eliminated!" I cried. "No, it's okay. I think there's still atleast one or two team members that were still in the game!" he said.

When we both got down from the elevator, we were greeted with the alliance. "We died." Pencil said. "Yeah. I think we screwed up the past." I said to them.

The elevator opened, which had Eraser and Blocky walking out. They gave us deadly glares. They died too! "Umm... I've never been to the dome before." Firey said, while looking around.

"The dome's actually pretty nice. It has a grassy terrain outside, with a tiny waterfall like on the forest!" Match answered happily.

"Also, there's everything you can think of! Swimming pool, gym, playground..." said Bubble dreamily.

It was actually pretty nice in the dome, but something went in my mind. "Wait, did Four patch the dome yet?" I asked. "Hmm... no idea. Wanna check it out?" Ruby said, hurrying to the elevator. "Book hasn't died yet, has he?" said Ruby to Bubble. "No, Ice Cube isn't dead too!" Bubble said while pressing the button for the 8th floor.

"Want anything?" asked Pencil, who just pulled out a menu. "Hmm... I'd like a slice of chocolate cake..." I said. Suddenly, a plate conjured from thin air with a cake and a fork on it!

Even before I took a bite, Firey asked "Can I have some?". "Here, let me feed you." I gladly said. "No, give me the plate.
I know how to eat, you know." he replied.

Ding!

We reached the 8th floor. Firey and I kept on arguing whether he should be fed by me or not. Finally, he gave in. "Okay, fine. I haven't eaten yet." "Cool! Here you go!" and I fed him the cake.

"Can you two stop acting like you're lovers?" Match asked. You'd expect me to blush, but I didn't. "Yeah, sure." I said sarcastically. We finally reached Pen's room, but we didn't have a key.

"Pen gave me the key to his room. Here." Pencil gave the key to Match, who unlocked the door.

We ignored the mess in his room, and proceeded to go into the bathroom. Sure enough, when we looked out the window, the dome was still broken. "Psst... come!" I said to the others.

They all walked the narrow plank, and I embarrassed myself by almost falling eight stories below unless Firey supported me. All of us were good at this type of stuff, like parkour, since we had a challenge on that one back in BFDI.

We all slid down the dome, and I burnt myself since the sun was heating up the glass sphere. "OW!" I screamed in pain. Once we got down, I looked at myself and got all these burns. "Are you alright?" Firey asked. I nodded. "Well, if you say so. Let's go back to the waterfall!" he said, and we all in the game once again.
