CH.1

What would you do if your reality turned out to be false and everything you've been "living" turned out to be fake?

Cold...

So Cold...

Where am I?

I slowly open my eyes to see that I am in a forest in what seemed to be.

"Winter?... but I thought..." I notice something else. "Yuri? Monika? Natsuki? Anon? Where are you guys?" I spin around to see... no one.. Where were they? We were just in the clubroom just a couple of seconds ago... I feel cold... so cold. I try to huddle myself for warmth and move inside the forest. "It so cold." It truly was cold, it felt as though I was on fire. And the fact that I was only in my uniform didn't really help either.

I trail along the snow, for what felt like minutes. Those turned into hours, and then what felt like years had gone by. I felt exhausted after walking this far. I had almost given up hope when I saw a road. This was only a spark of the hope I was feeling, because in the distance I could see a light. The light was getting brighter. I hoped that this was my safe haven. And just as I had hoped the source of the light stopped a couple of meters away from me. And man or a boy ,I was quite dazed to tell who this was, came up to me.

"HEY! are you okay?!" he exclaimed. I could only make up a small response of groans. So the this person carried me into his car in a panic. He quickly put a blanket on me. "OK don't worry my house is just a few minutes away!" For around the 15-minutes he drove I quickly became wide awake. He apparently didn't notice this, so I took this time to see who or what he was. He was boy, around my age I presumed and he reminded me of Anon. It wasn't long before we reached his house, where he pulled out his phone and quickly tried to phone the ambulence. I stopped him before this. I did not want to become a burden to him.

"WAIT STOP!" I shrieked, in response to this he jumped. There was a moment of silence. This was shortlived however, as the man calmed down and spoke a response.

"Are you sure? Most people would go to hospital after what happened."

"Yes I'm sure! Please put the phone down," I begged him. And sure enough he put his phone down.

"Well atleast let me invite you into my house." I agreed with this plan. I did need answers of what was going on and where I am. As he invited me in. He runs into his living room into another. Then he gently asked, "Would like some hot coco?" I nod as a response. After awhile we were sitting in the living room sipping a warm cup of hot coco. It tasted like it was the best thing I had ever had.

Afterward the questioning began. Questions like: Why were you out there? Who are you? I answer all the questions he has.

"Well my name is Sayori, I am 18-years old and I really have no idea how ended up there. Last thing I remember I was in the LIterature Cl-" I was cut off.

"Wait Sayori! Tell me who is in that club!"

"Well there is Monika the president, Yuri, Natsuki and my childhood friend recently joined also! His name is Anon."

"Wait are you screwing with me? There is no way that your actually Sayori from the DDLC game." I was a bit confused by this. What did he mean by DDLC game? This just sparked even more questions I had for him.

"Wait what do you mean by game? And I am Sayori."

"Bull, welp show me proof that you are Sayori." As he says this he notices my uniform. And draws the conclusion himself. "Well I'll be darned, looks like I got my proof right here. No one in there right mind would go outside in that." He points at my uniform. "And the looks of the uniform. Well I guess you are the real deal."

"Of course I am!" I blurt out. "Now answer my question!"

"Your question? Oh wait ok."

I listened to what he meant by DDLC game. He explains that my world is just a game called Doki Doki Literature Club made by Dan Salvato and his team Team Salvato. I also explains the plot for me. He explains that in the beginning everything is okay. Anon and I walk to school, he joins the club and afterward Anon and someone in the club get into a "relationship". I see this and fall into depression. Monika also boosts my depression so I would be driven to commit suicide. Afterward the game resets. However I apparently am deleted and is kick out from the story itself. Something similar happens to Yuri and Natsuki. This drives Yuri to stabbing herself. Which leads to Act 3 after Yuri and Natsuki are deleted. This is where the player and Monika stay for a "eternity" and if Monika is deleted the game proceeds into Act 4. In which I become president and become like Monika. And then the end credits.

I find this story hard-to-believe, however my jaws drop after seeing the evidence he provided. He started up DDLC and started a new game for me. The story progress the same way I remember it. I greet Anon and then we walk to school. He showed me let's plays of DDLC which in it showed events in which he told me. I was stunned at this fact. And then I bellow up into tears. The boy tries to comfort me, however it is no use.

"So it wasn't real? The clubroom, Anon, Yuri, Natsuki, and Monika. Were they all fake? My memories... "Seeing as I think back I can't seem to recall my parents or... anythings else really except for the Literature Clubroom. The boy sees his futile efforts and decides to leave me alone. I sob myself to sleep
