Before I start, I want to give a special shoutout to Anime4life5 for being the first reviewer on this story!
I know I took so long to upload the second chapter. It was because of school, home and family issues. But summer break has started, so that means I will be uploading more often!
Anyways, enjoy!
The Front doors open, six people walk into the house.
"Holy shit!" says Alfred, amazed at the scenery.
Lovino is part of the new group of houseguests that just walked in. He also happens to be the older brother of one of the housemates that are already in the house.
"You are so god damn loud," Lovino says to Alfred.
"Wow! This is really nice," says Tino.
Berwald nods in agreement, "Ev'ryth'ng m'de in Sw'dn."
"Like, this house is totally fit for a princess like me," says Feliks.
"Wait, so you're not actually a woman?" asks Toris.
"I'm whoever you want me to be," Feliks responds.
Alfred glances downstairs, "Wait a minute, why does it look messy downstairs?"
Everyone takes a look downstairs and notices the mess.
"Huh, what could have happened?" Asks Tino.
"Looks like a party just happened," says Toris.
"Did the producers not prepare for us or what?" Lovino complains. He goes into one of the rooms and settles down on one of the beds. "I'm not cleaning up this mess, even if that's what they want us to do."'
Everyone except Lovino head down to the first floor. Glasses of liquor and empty bottles are strewed all over the place.
"The fuck happened?" Asks Alfred. He grabs the tiny, portable microphone that was around his neck and brought it close to his mouth to speak directly into it. "Can you tell us what happened Big Brother? I'm confused as hell... And a little scared."
Berwald and Tino quickly look around the place to see if there is anyone else in the house. With no luck, they go back to the living room.
"We found a few locked doors, that's it," says Tino.
"They are locked to keep a secret," says Berwald.
"What could possibly be-"
Alfred was interrupted when the doors opened upstairs. "Guten Tag!"
"Who the fuck is that!?" Lovino shouts from the bedroom.
Francis lights up, "There's people here!"
"Aiyah! Why is it so messy!?" exclaims Yao.
"Looks like they threw a party before we came," says Eduard.
Natalia appears to be annoyed "What the hell happened here?" A negative aura is coming off her.
All the guests in the living room look upstairs to see the newly arrived competitors.
Alfred waves at them, "Hey!"
Words of excitement and happiness can be heard coming from some of the five guests that just arrived in the house. The new group of houseguests include Gilbert Beilschmidt from Germany, Francis Bonnefoy from France, Yao Wang from China, Natalia Arlovskaya from Belarus, and Eduard Von Bock from Estonia.
These new houseguests rush downstairs to greet the others in the living room. Lovino comes out of his room to see what was happening.
Gilbert stands on the last stair of the staircase as he lets all of the new houseguests pass him. "Well hallo everyone," he begins. "You are all staring at the most awesome person in this house, so it's best that you all give up now since you all don't stand a chance!"
Everyone looks at Gilbert, annoyed.
"Dude, No! I'm the best!" says Alfred.
"You wish," replies Gilbert.
"I'm stronger."
"You wanna bet?"
"Ok! Let's not get into a fight," Yao interrupts.
"Psh. Whatever," Gilbert says as he gets off the stairs.
Toris switches the subject, "What happened here?"
"That's what we all want to know aru," says Yao.
Eduard thinks for a bit. "Hmmm, I think we should wait for a bit to see what's going on."
"Bonjour," Francis says as he greets everyone.
Alfred goes into the pantry, as part of his little tour of the house. He spots some liquor on the counter, "Hey guys!" He comes rushing into the kitchen area with a few bottles, "Guess what I found?"
The houseguests gathered around the counter, wanting to get a drink.
"Yes! Alcohol!" Exclaims Gilbert.
"Where are the glasses?" asks Lovino.
"Where's the beer?" Gilbert asks. "I can't live without beer. Is the house being discriminatory against Germans?"
"Shut up," Lovino says.'
Gilbert shrugs, "Now I know who I'll put up for my nomination first."
Lovino shrugs it off.
The new set of houseguests take a seat in the living room after they get a glass of liquor.
"What... should we do now?" Asks Tino.
"I'm curious to why this place is messy," say Toris.
Tino agrees, "So am I."
"Do you think they may have not prepared the place on purpose?" Asks Eduard.
"But why would they do that?" Alfred asks.
"Maybe it's because they were distracted by my awesomeness that they forgot to clean the place," Gilbert says.
"Or maybe they couldn't stand the oncoming presence of a winner," Francis says.
"Or maybe they couldn't' stand the oncoming presence of someone fabulous," Feliks says.
Yao rolls his eyes, "I think something bigger is happening."
"Like what?" Gilbert asks.
Eduard thinks, "Could it possibly be that some other houseguests were in here before us?"
"Eduard, Stop it." A deep, automated and robotic voice says so that the new houseguests can hear.
Eduard shivers, "What was that!?"
Alfred gasps, "The house is alive!"
"Quiet down!" Yao orders. He takes a breath, "Since we are all gathered together, we should all introduce each other,"
"Ok! I'll go first!" Alfred exclaims. "I'm Alfred F. Jones! From The USA! The best country in the world! And I will beat you all!"
"Not if you get evicted first!" Gilbert says.
"You'll probably leave first!" Alfred replies.
Yao sighs, "Next person!"
The houseguest sitting next to Alfred was Toris, "Um...hello. I-I'm Toris... from Lithuania."
"M' Ber'ld. Fr'm Sw'dn."
"What?" Asks Alfred.
"He is Berwald, from Sweden," said Tino. "Oh, and I'm Tino," he continues.
"...Thanks," said Gilbert.
Eduard cleared his throat. "I'm Eduard, from Eston-"
"AND I'M ALFRED .F JONES FROM THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD, AMERICA!" Alfred interrupts.
"Ayah! You are so loud!" Yao complains, rubbing his temples. He puts a smile on his face and introduces himself, "... I'm Yao Wang, from China. I am a good cook, and I have a lot of exp-
"Yeah whatever," Alfred interrupts. "Who's next?"
"That was rude. You should learn to respect your elders." Francis says, jokingly.
Yao's face flushes in embarassment.
Eduard notices the change in Yao's behaviour. "Are you... ok?" He asks.
"I... should just tell all of you," Yao sighs. The entire house looks at him in conplete silence, waiting for what he has to say. "I... I am 40 years old!" He hides his face in shame.
The houseguests are silent, and some of them stare at Yao in shock.
Gilbert tries to hold his laugh in, "Pffffffft hahahahahahaha!"
Lovino's jaw drops, "You're lying."
"W-wait... really?" Asks Toris.
Feliks is dumfounded, "... Like, how do you look so young?"
"Dude... you're like... a hundred years older than me!" Exclaims Alfred.
"That's quite an exaggeration," Eduard says.
Alfred thinks, "Okay, maybe like..." he counts silently to himself, "20... ish... years older than me?"
Yao sighs, "You are making me feel old."
Francis turns toward Yao, "That's nothing to be ashamed of. Age is just a number."
"I still feel old, but I have more experience in life," Yao says with positivity.
"Because of that, I'm going after you first! Gilbert exclaims.
"Aiyah..." Yao complains.
Natalia sighs, "Can we get this over with already?"
Gilbert introduces himself, "Guten Tag! I am the most awesomest houseguest to enyer this house, Gilbert Beilschmidt!"
A pang of jealously hits Alfred.
"From Germany!" Gilbert continues. "The bes-"
"No one cares!" Lovino interrupts.
Yao is uninterested, "Who is next?"
"Bonjour!" Francis greets. Not waiting for a reply, he introduces himself. "I'm Francis Bonnefoy! It should be obvious where I'm from!" Francis said with enthusiasm.
"We a'll k,nw," says Berwald.
"It's like, so obvious to all of us,"says Feliks.
Natalia remained quiet throughout the time.
"No shit," added Gilbert.
Lovino took a seat, "I'm Lovino Vargas, from Italy, not like any of you care."
All eyes are now on the last person to introduce themselves, which is Natalia.
Natalia sighs, "I am Natalia Arlovskaya, from Belarus."
"You have a nice name," Alfred conpliments.
"Shut up!" Natalia stammers.
Gilbert stands up from his seat, "Is that everyone. Good. Now let's party!" He clangs hus glass of alcohol with every houseguest in the living room. "Cheers!"
Most of the new houseguests drink, chatter,and have a good time with the other houseguests.
Then, a deep, robotic voice interrupts their fun. "Houseguests, prepare yourselves."
"What the hell was that?" Asks Gilbert.
"The house," says Tino.
A pale, big-eyed alien pops up on the large screen in the living room.
Lovino appears confused, " What the fucking hell is that?"
"Oh!" Alfred comes to realization. "I've been abducted by few of those things before. I'm sure about it!"
"We don't want to hear about your crazy dreams," Lovino complains.
"It was not a dream! I'm sure about it!" Alfred stammers.
"What is going on?!" Shouts Toris.
The weird creature speaks, "Hello everyone! I have taken control!"
Eduard is startled, "What does that mean?"
"It means..." Tony snickers, "This house is mine!"
"Well... shit," says Lovino.
The alien continues, "You have to comply and follow the orders of the house. It the house tells you to be quiet, be quiet. Do you remember the voice that told you to prepare yourselves? That was the house talking."
Alfred gasps, "So the house is alive?!"
"Not exactly. And let me repeat, you have to complt with everything it says."
"With everything?" asks Tino.
"Everything," replies Tony.
Noises of complaint and shock can be heard inside the house.
"This is gonna be hell..." complains Gilbert.
"I'm not going to like this..." Alfred says. "I'm too free to follow orders!"
"If you don't follow the orders the house tells you to do, you will be punished." Tony continues.
The way that that Tony said punishment made most of the houseguests nervous and on edge.
"What do you mean by punishment?" Asks Yao.
"Oh nothing... just nights of isolation, disadvantages in competitions, and slop! Slop is a good, but maybe gross, mixture that you consume as your only meals."
Lovino cringes, "What the hell have I got myself into?"
Feelings of dread hit Francis, "I don't think my stomach will be able to handle whatever that stuff is!"
Tino latches onto a confused Berwald.
Feliks dramatically gets up from his seat and walks up the stairs. "Later everyone. My fabulous self would not be able to survive in here."
The robotic voice comes back, "Feliks."
Feliks stops dead in his tracks.
"Go back. You are not leaving."
Feliks rushes back to his seat, "U-u-uuuh...okay!"
Tony picks up a small device, "Are you all ready?"
"Hell no." Lovino stammers.
"I'm ready!" shouts Gilbert.
"The hero is always ready!" Alfred exclaims.
"Good, see ya later!" Tony says. He plays around with the device he has for a few seconds before the screen goes dark and he disappears. Immediately after that, all the lights go off.
"Aiyah! What is going on now?!" Shouts Yao. After he said that, the lights start blinking in random order.
Gilbert is dumfounded, "What ze hell?"
"M' c'nfsed," says Berwald.
"Please stop..." Francis begs.
"I shouldn't even be suprised anymore," Lovino says.
"Ha ha ha..., Alfred laughs half-heartedly. "I'm not scared at all!"
"Is this supposed to happen?!" Asks Toris.
Feliks hides behind Toris, "Shield me."
"C-calm down everyone..." says Eduard.
"I think we are overreacting a little..." Tino says nervously.
Noises of fear continue as the little speculation with the lights go on.
"Shut up everyone!" Shouts Natalia.
Suddenly, the lights stop flickering and everything is dark.
"Is it finally over?!" Alfred anxiously asks. "Did a ghost visit us?!"
"Someone spilled their drink on me..." says Toris.
Yao puts a hand on his head, "My mind could barely handle all those flashing lights aru..."
"Why do you say aru all the time?" Asks Gilbert.
"Aiya-"
Yao is interrupted when the overhead garage doors near the dining start opening slowly. A bright florescent light shines into the room from the other side. Several silhouettes can be seen entering the room.
"Ve! Why is it so dark in here?!" Screams one of the people who just entered.
"What the hell?!" Lovino stammers.
Suddenly, the door slams shut with a loud noise, scaring some people. Then the lights turn on.
Lovino recognizes a very familiar face in the group, "Shit..."
Gilbert is caught off guard when he sees one of them, "L-Lutz?"
"Six people left," the house says.
"Good job everyone!" Michelle cheers.
Feliciano and Laura join in on the cheering.
Arthur is enraged, "I can't believe I let myself fall into this dirty water!"
"It's a good thing I was eliminated earlier then," said Antonio.
The remaining houseguests fight against the cold and try to keep their balance. Thirty minutes have passed since the start of the competition.
"Let me clean the pool water," says Tony as he presses a few things on his device.
Kiku appears physically drained of energy. Some of the ousted competitors watching on the sidelines notice.
"Come on Kiku! You can do it!" Feliciano roots.
Kiku closes his eyes, "I... ca-"
He falls into the water below.
"Kiku is out," Tony says.
The water had been cleaned out to some extent, so Kiku was lucky enough to avoid getting as dirty as Arthur.
As he gets out of the pool, he recieves ppraise from some of the eliminated competitors. "Arigatou," he said.
Tony raises his voice, "The third batch will come in... five, four..." his counting trails off.
Matthias jumps, "See ya!"
"... one!" Tony shouts. A black, sticky substance comes pouring down.
The Danish man splashes in the pool. "Just in time."
"Matthias is out!" Tony exclaims.
The substance beomes more weird with every new batch.
"W-what is this?!" Elizaveta exclaims.
Ivan remains unbothered, "I wonder what will be next?" He smiles, "Maybe blood?"
That smile made some houseguests shudder with fear.
"Aaahh! I hope not!" Yells Feliciano.
"Four more people left," the house says.
Five minutes pass with nothing eventful happening, with some of the sideline houseguests cheering -with most of them rooting for Elizaveta.
Out of nowhere, Elizaveta jumps into the pool.
"Elizaveta is out," says Tony.
Once Elizaveta rises to the surface, she starts cleaning off the substances spilled on her and lets the warm pool eliminate the cold sensation. "Sorry everyone," she smiles, "I would have turned to ice if I stayed any longer."
"Three more houseguests left," the house says.
Three minutes pass before the next competitor gives in.
"Keep me safe for the week," Lukas says before jumping down.
"Lukas is out," states Tony. "Two more left. Who will win the first HOH competition?"
Ludwig is starting to lose feeling throughout his body. I can't go on any longer, but I can't lose. Suddenly, thought struck him, he could make a deal. He turns his head towards Ivan, who is on the beam next to his. He noticed that Ivan was not struggling, which was strange to him because Ivan drank almost an entire bottle of vodka. "
Ivan seemed to know what Ludwig was thinking, "I think you should just jump down now, da?"
Ludwig gathers his thoughts, "If I do fall, will you promise not to nominate me when you win?"
"You can't stay up here any longer?" Ivan asks. He lets out a few chuckles.
"... nein. I can't..." Ludwig replies.
Ivan thinks for a few seconds. "Ok then! Off you go!" He said that in a cheerful way, which made Ludwig confused.
Ludwig was about to ask him again for clarity, but changed his mind. I'm ready for my punishment, he said to himself before jumping.
"Ludwig is out. So that means Ivan wins!" Tony says.
"Finally, it's over," A relieved Vash says.
The water in the pool is cleaned of all the spilled substances that the houseguests had to endure. Ivan jumps into the pool.
Ludwig cleans himself thoroughly, disgust finally hitting him.
The rest of the houseguests jump in to pool, and someimmediately barrage Ivan and Ludwig with words of awe and praise.
Feliciano felt tense. These two are obviously strong. But he was at least grateful that he would not get his slop punishment. Everyone betting on him to lose hurt him a little, but he understood why.
Ludwig bowed his head in shame. He would have to endure his punishment.
Everyone is relieved that it's over. The houseguests wash themselves in the now-cleaned pool. Useless chatter erupts.
The house speaks up out of nowhere, "houseguests, please head to the exit."
"Where is the exit?" Vash asks. "The entrance just suddenly disappeared."
Some contestants look at each other in confusion.
"Are we trapped in here?!" Feliciano exclaims.
Arthur scowled, "They wouldn't just trap us in here."
Kiku spoke up, "Maybe we should wait to see if the house does something."
Matthias complains, "What if it just wanted to trap us in here?"
Ivan smiles, "I think it did."
Feliciano cries, "I don't want to die in here!"
Ludwig sighs, "Calm down everyone."
Michelle looks around, "How could we get out of here?"
Elizaveta is the first to spot the red luminicent text that poped up on a screen, "Over there."
The competitors read out the text.
Dear Houseguests,
The old text slides by and a new one is revealed.
This is Tony. I am not available right now and I need all of you to be quiet.
"What?" Asks Arthur.
The exit will appear shortly. Be prepared for a twist. See ya!
"I'm a little creeped out," Matthias says.
Kiku thinks, "The exit will be revealed?"
At that moment, the wall with the text screen started sliding open. A garage-like overhead door was revealed.
"I guess that's it," says Michelle.
"A secret passage?" Asks Laura.
Matthias gets the creeps, "I'm not going In there."
"I'll force you," replied Lukas.
Ivan gets out of the pool, "I'm curious."
All the other houseguests follow suit and near the door. It suddenly, but slowly, started to open with a loud creak, startling some houseguests.
The door completely opens, revealing several people on the other side. They houseguests could barely see the other side, but could make out that there are people in there. So they slowly and cautiously walk in.
Feliciano trembles, "Ve! It's so dark in here!"
The door suddenly shuts speedily behind them and the lights come on.
The houseguests are dumbfounded and shocked at the sight before them. Some people just entered the house soaking wet through a big garage door, and there are strange people sitting in the living room.
Ludwig spots Gilbert, "What ze hell?! Why are you here?"
"Who are you guys?!" Exclaims Alfred.
Yao covers his ears,"Aiyah... So loud."
"Is this what tony meant when he told us to prepare ourselves?" Eduard asks.
Feliciano is staring at Lovino in disbelief, "L-Lovi?"
Lovino ignores Feliciano with a sour look on his face.
Alfred constantly switches his gaze from Lovino to Feliciano, confused. "What?"
"Like..." Felix is confused, "What is going on?"
A few moments of silence ensue before it is broken by Matthias. "What is going on? And why is there a Feliciano look-alike here?!"
Natalia rushes toward Ivan, "Big brother!"
Ivan runs away from his little sister, almost like cat and mouse around the house while some confused houseguests watch.
Feliciano runs towards Lovino and opens his arms," Lovi! Fratello! I'm so glad you are here!"
Lovino immediately moves away, making Feliciano crash into the couch, "Don't touch me!"
Yao comes to realization, "Wait, you two are related?!"
"Brothers?" Asks Tino.
"I'm older," Lovino replies.
Gilbert puts an arm around Ludwig, "And I'm this guy's older brother!" He pats his younger brother on the back, "I'm glad to see you bruder."
Ludwig sighed. He was looking forward to not having to deal with his older brother's annoyingness.
"Ja, I-I'm happy to see you too," Ludwig says, still in disbelief.
"Great," Lovino replies. "More siblings."
Eduard speaks up, "Why are all of you wet?" He was thinking, did they just compete in a competition?
Toris laughs nervously, "I was also wondering the same thing."
The house interrupts, "The houseguests that just competed in the HOH competition, please go upstairs."
"Wait... All of you just competed in a competition already?!" Exclaims Alfred.
"Ummm... yes," says Kiku before heading upstairs.
The houseguests follow orders and go upstairs. Towels are already prepared on the couches for the guests to use. They use the towels and change into their normal clothes while the guests downstairs chatter about them. They then arrive downstairs, clean and comfortable in their own clothes. They all gather around the other housemates.
"Tell us what's going on." Demands Yao.
"We would also like to know," replies Arthur.
"I thought more attractive guests would be coming in, not wet and dirty ones," scowles Francis.
"How much of us are here?" Asks Lukas.
Several houseguests count all of the people in the house.
"Twenty three," Ivan says first.
"That's a lot," replies Elizaveta
"Sounds like a party..." Matthias says.
"Houseguests," the house says. The pantry room is now open.
"It was closed?" Says Laura.
"Who cares," Alfred says. "Imma go check it out!" He goes through the kitchen and pushes the door into the pantry room. Pizza and several other alcoholic beverages can be seen on the counter.
Alfred's eyes go wide with excitement, "Hey guys, get over here!"
Several houseguests follow his voice. And are suprised at the treat they have been given.
"Yay! Pizza! Exclaims Feliciano.
"Yes! I was hungry for a while!" Matthias shouts.
The guests dig in, quenching their thirst or satisfying their hunger. They gather in the living room for a little party.
"We haven't officially met each other yet," Arthur says.
The guests go on and introduce each other to the 'new' houseguests. The alcohol kicks in for some people and they chat their hearts for away for a while. A drunk Frenchman tries to hit on the Englishman, a polish naps on a Lithuanian's shoulder, a Dane latches on a Norwegian, a Belarusian trying to grasp onto the Russian, an Italian trying to escape the grasp of a Spaniard, and a German meeting a tipsy Italian.
"Buongiorno!" Feliciano says to Ludwig.
"Ummm... hallo," Ludwig replies.
"... You did such a good job on the HOH competition," Feliciano compliments.
"...ummm... danke." thanks the German.
The house interrupts their drunk houseguests' social gathering, "houseguests, it is time for the HOH to announce their partnered HOH companion."
"Me?" replies Ivan.
"Yes. There will be two people who will share the power of being HOH this week."
Some of the houseguests react in surprise.
Ivan stands up from his seat and clears his throat, "The person I choose to be my equal is Yao." the Russian and the Chinese man have immediately clicked when they recently met. Yao was the oldest in the house, which made him less of a target then the rest of the houseguests in Ivan's book.
Yao looked surprised, "Really?"
The house resumed, "Yao is the co-head of household, along with Ivan."
The rest of the guests listened in surprise or shock.
A mysterious man enters the house quietly through the front doors.
"Goodnight. the HOH room is now open," the house replied.
Feliciano gets excited," I wonder what it's going to look like!"
Alfred replies," Me too."
Gilbert joins in," Will it be awesome?"
"Shut up!" Lovino replies to all three of them.
The houseguests rushed up into the HOH room, which is upstairs. Most of them were marveled at the beauty of the room. It was an expensive-looking suite with two large beds on opposite sides of the room, three couches, several glass coffee tables and bedside tables, and a large screen for some reason. The guests all find a seat either on the couches or on the bed. On one of the tables, there was a picture frame with an image of a young Ivan. Natalia immediately spotted it and grabbed it, admiring the picture.
Toris briefly gets a look at the image. "What is that?" He asks Natalia.
Natalia swiftly retracts the picture frame away from Toris, acting like the picture is going to be taken away from her.
Alfred is able to get a good look at the picture, "Is that Ivan? I wanna get a better look!" He grabs the frame away from Natalia's hands.
"Let me see!" Gilbert exclaims.
Other people gather around Alfred to take a peek at the image. Laughter and squeals erupted in the room as the frame was being randomly passed around. Several houseguests were complimenting on how cute and adorable Ivan was in the photo, while others were shocked on how someone so small and cute can turn out to be someone so big and intimidating.
Ivan was flushed with embarrassment, "S-stop looking at it..."
"But you look so adorable!" Michelle squeals. Natalia reacted
The frame continued to be passed around the room, due to Ivan's dismay. He gave a glare to the houseguests, and that was all it took for the guests to stop the pandemonium. There was a letter in a basket on one of the tables in the room which had Ivan's name on it. He picked up the letter, opened it, and began to read it. He tried his best not to show any emotion while being grasped by his younger sister.
"It's from older sister," Natalia says.
The Russian man does not bother to read the letter aloud. He would rather keep it personal while the rest of the houseguests are gathered around him.
Ivan finishes reading the letter. A sincere smile on his face.
"From a family member?" Asks Yao.
"Da," Ivan replies.
The doors to the HOH room open suddenly, which attracted the attention of the houseguests. A person with wavy blonde hair and glasses came into the room, holding a bag that is identical to what the other houseguests have. All of the eyes in the room landed on him, making him uncomfortable. "Ummm... hi?" he awkwardly greets.
Feliciano is confused, "Ve? Why are there two Alfreds?"
Ludwig facepalms at Feliciano's question.
All the other houseguests stare in confusion, wondering why a new guest arrived so late and why he looks a lot like Alfred.
Alfred stares at the new houseguest in shock. "Mattie?" He rushes up from his seat.
"A-Al? What are y-"
The new houseguest was interrupted when he was suddenly pulled into a tight and bone-crushing hug. "What the hell Mattie?! I didn't know you were going to be here!"
"Who?" Asks Arthur.
The new houseguest clears his throat, "I'm Mat-"
"His name is Matthew," Alfred interrupts again. He puts an arm around Matthew, "We've twins!"
Lovino facepalms, "Well no shit."
Matthew meets the rest of the houseguests. Some houseguests are surprised that there is another sibling pair in the house.
"Hello Matthew," the House says.
"Eh?!" Matthew replies.
The House pays no attention to his reaction, "Since you and Alfred are twins, you will both be competing as one houseguest until jury."
"What?!" Shouts Alfred.
"W-what does that mean?!" Exclaims Matthew.
The House replies, " For several weeks, both of you will be playing as one person. I will let you know when the time is up a few weeks from now."
"Ummm... okay," a confused Alfred says.
Matthew drops his head in disappointment. He was hoping to become his own person without his twin brother's influence.
"Oh! and I'm older," Alfred says.
"By three minutes," Matthew replies.
After that, the houseguests continue to introduce themselves to Matthew. They are surprised at the resemblance between the two twins.
A letter is brushed through the gap under the door to the HOH room. It has Yao's name on it. Michelle picks it up and gives it to the Chinese man. Yao silently reads it to himself, "It was from one of my annoying siblings. My younger brother, to be exact."
"It must be nice," Arthur says.
An envelope slides under the gap under the door. Yao grabs it and opens it. he silently reads it to himself with a smile. "It is from my younger brother," he says to the houseguests after reading it.
Some guests feel the pang of jealousy, wishing that they won to receive a memento from home.
Ivan grabs a bottle from his basket, opens it, and drinks it.
The rest of the guests chatter about different things, whether it be about the new houseguest or about the HOH room.
The house's voice comes back, "Houseguests, The pantry room is now open."
"Ummmm... ok..." says Arthur.
Matthew gets up from his seat on the couch, "I still haven't got a good look of the house."
"Wasn't that the place where I got the drinks?" said Matthias.
"I'm going to go check it out!" Gilbert exclaims.
Gilbert pats Matthew on the back, "I'll give you a tour."
Matthew and Gilbert both walked out of the HOH room and went downstairs. Matthew opened the door into the pantry room near the kitchen. He found several pizzas on top of the counters and fresh drinks. Gilbert comes barging in and spots the treats.
Gilberts runs out of the pantry room and shouts, "Everybody come down here! It's a party!"
Some curious houseguests come out of the HOH room.
"What is going on?" Asks Tino.
"Party?!" Exclaims Alfred.
"What now?" Lovino asks.
"Aiyah..." Yao says.
Matthew raises his voice, "It looks like they threw us a party."
The rest of the houseguests in the HOH room are notified. Soon, all the houseguests come downstairs. By the end of the night, all the food is gone and empty glasses lay all over the house.
