~4 Years Ago~

[Online: Aphmau; Laurance; Zane; Dante; Katelyn; Garroth; Vylad; Kawaii~Chan; Nicole; Gene; Lucinda; Travis]

Aphmau: All I'm saying is, that they would make a cute couple!

Travis: Fine...I guess I could agree with you on that one...

Katelyn: Are you guys still fucking fighting over that dumb anime?

Aphmau: It's not dumb! 😝

Travis: Yeah! It's a classic!

Laurance: I'm gonna have to agree with Katelyn; it's not the best of animes.

Travis: Oh, hush. It's a beautiful piece of artwork, Katie!

Katelyn: Don't call me "Katie"; if you still want proof that you're a male.

Dante: ...

Dante: I don't get it.

Zane: She's going to snap his dick off.

Dante: Oooooh.

Travis: Yikes, Katie. You're scary.

Katelyn: 😡😠

[Aaron Has Connected]

Lucinda: Someone's late to the party.

Dante: Wait, wait, wait...

Dante: Who the fuck is "AARON"?

Gene: Yeah, Aphmau... Is this a new person you invited?

Aaron: Not exactly.

Aphmau: You guys remember, Alpha? Well...

Kawaii~Chan: Alpha~Kun revealed his name to everyone~?

Gene: Wait, really?

Laurance: Well, shit, man.

Dante: That's nice...

Katelyn: Gotta admit, that's pretty fucking neat.

Zane: Are you guys seriously making a big deal over the guy's fucking name?

Kawaii~Chan: Kawaii~Chan thinks it's cool! 💕

Travis: Zane, it was pretty neat to figure it out.

Nicole: Agreed.

Zane: You guys are fucking weird.

Laurance: Then why do you keep coming back?

Zane: ...

Garroth: Hey got you there, baby brother.

Katelyn: Hm...

Nicole: What is that supposed to mean, Katelyn?

Katelyn: Nothing, Nicole.

Katelyn: Hey, guys, I'm gonna disconnect for the night. See ya.

[Katelyn Has Disconnected]

Vylad: Well, then.

Dante: You can't tell me, that I was the only one, who thought that was a bit...off.

Gene: Yeah. It was...strangd.

Aaron: *strange

Gene: 😒

Aphmau: I think everyone here is a tad strange. That's what I love about you guys. 💜

Garroth: Aww.

Lucinda: You are such a doll, Aph. Too bad I have to get going. I'll be seeing you sweethearts, later. 💛

[Lucinda Has Disconnected]

Kawaii~Chan: Lucinda~Chan is really nice and all, but... Kawaii~Chan...feels off about her.

Dante: I agree with you there, Kawaii~Chan.

Aphmau: How so? She's soooo nice!

Laurance: I'm taking Aph's side with this one. Lucinda doesn't seem off to me.

Aaron: The amount of trust here is...not very.

Zane: What the Hell is that supposed to mean?

Dante: You guys don't trust each other very much.

Nicole: You can say that, again.

Aphmau: What's there not to trust? 😟

Kawaii~Chan: Kawaii~Chan senses tension. It makes her uneasy.

Travis: Really, huh? So do I, kinda...

Aphmau: Hmm...

[Aphmau Has Updated Her Profile]

Garroth: What did you do?

Aphmau: Updated my profile picture!

Zane: Why?

Aphmau: So that you guys now what I look like! Therefore, there is a better sense of trudt!

Aaron: *know *trust

Laurance: And, if your catfishing us?

Aaron: *you're

Gene: Now, you're just being an ass.

Aphmau: What's catfishing?

Garroth: Fishing for cats. Obviously.

Zane: Sometimes, I question if I'm even related to you.

Laurance: Well, it was obviously a joke. Why don't you get your head out of your ass, to realize it, you freaky emo.

Garroth: 😂😂

Dante: Aphmau, catfishing is... To put it in simple terms; it's pretending to be someone you are not.

Gene: If you were catfishing us; that'd be even more suspicious and untrustworthy.

Aphmau: Oh no! I'd never du that! My mom would be very disappointed.

Aaron: *do

Gene: Is that all you are? Just the fucking grammer police?

Aaron: I don't care if it's texting. Kids in this generation, should learn proper *grammar.

Gene: You motherfucking ass.

Garroth: Hey, guys, I have to go check something. Might as well disconnect from the chatroom. See ya.

[Garroth Has Disconnected]

Laurance: I don't know what he's leaving for, but I have to get going for something as well. It's a Monday- and that means school.

[Laurance Has Disconnected]

Nicole: He still has school? School ended for us, like last week.

Travis: Lucky bitch. 😂

Aphmau: Should we all just disconnect? It has been a long night for most of us.

Aaron: That'd be the wise option.

Aphmau: Why don't we all do a dungeon tomorrow? It'll be fun right?

Travis: Hell, yeah!

Vylad: Sure. 😊

Kawaii~Chan: Kawaii~Chan likes the sound of it.

Gene: Yeah, why not?

Aaron: Okay.

[Pms: Katelyn/Garroth]

Katelyn: Hey, dickface, answer me.

Garroth: Sorry, I had to disconnect from the chatroom.

Garroth: Woah, you can text privately on here?

Katelyn: Yeah, it's fucking gypsie voodoo, and shit like that. Crazy. Intense.

Katelyn: Listen, where do you live?

Garroth: And tell me, why on Earth would I answer that?

Katelyn: Listen, asshat, it's been bugging me- and I need to know.

Garroth: And if you're a crazy psychotic killer, whose coming to kill me?

Katelyn: You live in O'Khasis, right?

Garroth: ...

Garroth: How do you fucking know?

Katelyn: Garroth Ro'Meave, correct?

Garroth: ...

Garroth: A killer AND a hacker... Oh my Irene, I'm so fucking dead.

Katelyn: Relax, Paranoia, it's me- Katelyn.

Garroth: Yes, I know. You're name pops up, when you text something.

Katelyn: No, you dimwit! Katelyn- from school! We're in the same grade! We go to O'Khasis Prep?

Garroth: Wait, what? You play video games?

Katelyn: That isn't important.

Katelyn: Listen, bitch, if you tell ANYONE at school about me; I swear I will rat out to everyone in this chatroom, who you are.

Garroth: You wouldn't fucking dare.

Katelyn: Then keep your damn mouth shut. Got it?

Garroth: This is blackmail.

Katelyn: I figured you would probably figure out who I was soon enough. One of your dumbass brothers probably would've told you.

Garroth: DON'T YOU FUCKING CALL MY BROTHERS "DUMBASSES"!!

Katelyn: Stop whining. Damn, you're obnoxious.

Katelyn: I'm logging off, now. See ya, dork.

Garroth: Bitch.

~Present Day~

[Pms: Travis/Zane]

Travis: Hey, babe~

Zane: Don't give me pet names. I hate those.

Travis: Damn, so did Katelyn. I can never win.

Travis: Anywho~ I miss you, Zane.

Zane: I just left your hotel room 10 minutes ago.

Travis: And I've been sad for 10 minutes! 😢😭

Zane: You're pathetic.

Travis: Because I love my boyfriend?

Zane: Yes.

Travis: Ouch. 😖

Travis: Well, yesterday was fun, right?

Zane: You mean, getting to meet Aphmau? Yeah, pretty rad.

Travis: And me too, right? 😘

Zane: Your excessive use of emoticons disgusts me.

Travis: How else am I supposed to express my love for you~ 😍

Zane: Through the power of words. Those can express a lot.

Travis: Yeah. I can see, through the power of your text bubbles, that you're being a total prick right now.

Zane: Watch yourself, Valkrum.

Travis: Geez, babe, what's with your attitude today? I noticed it when you were over here earlier. You were fine Yesterday... Is something the matter?

Travis: Did I do something wrong?

Zane: No, Travis... I'm sorry.

Travis: Zane, what's wrong?

Zane: Do...

Zane: Do you realize what today is?

Travis: Uh...June 13?

Zane: Exactly...

Travis: Zane???

Zane: Do you know what happened 4 years ago, on this day?

Travis: Not really??

Zane: That group chat was created...

Travis: ...

Zane: Five years ago; I discovered that my older brother Garroth, had been going through some sort of depression.

Travis: ...

Zane: Four years ago today; I found a place where I could fit in. Even if some of the people there were kind of pricks. And, my brother felt that way, too...he was starting to get better.

Travis: Zane...

Zane: Three years ago; I noticed that his depression symptoms weren't really showing up as much. He was getting better.

Zane: Two years ago; I started having feelings for someone I have never even met. He was just a face on my screen; but I found myself falling for him.

Travis: Zane.

Zane: One year ago; my younger half-brother, Vylad, went missing. He almost died.

Zane: One year ago today; it was revealed that some sort of demon thing was in that chatroom. And he wanted to fucking. Kill. Us.

Zane: One year ago; my own older brother took his own life. In our own home. I was left with the image of his corpse, stuck forever in my brain. And had to live with that memory, for the rest of my days.

Zane: So, no, Travis. Today, is not the best of all fucking days. Okay?!

Travis: ...

~~~

[Travis Created: Video Chat]

Zane: "W-Why did you f-fucking call m-me, Travis..?"

Travis: "Y-You're crying."

Zane: "S-So are y-you, dick."

Travis: "Zane...i-it's going to be okay. You pulled t-through it for this long, love. I know that you can. And, Vylad; Aphmau; Katelyn; me...we're all g-going through the same thing. A-And it's hard...but we need each other, to pull through."

Zane: "T-Travis..."

Travis: "I l-love you, babe. I'll be here for you."

Zane: "T-Thank you..."

Zane: "O-Oh, and T-Travis..?"

Travis: "Yes, angel?"

Zane: "Don't give me pet names... I hate those."

Travis: "Heh... I can hear that smile in your voice, sweetheart."

Zane: "S-Shut up."

Travis: "There's my Zane. Now, you have a goodnight. See you tomorrow."

Zane: "B-Bye...I l-love you."

Travis: "I love you, too."
