Envy to Erika Granger: Alice knew that these things were after you and didn't even warn you? That doesn't make any sense; makes you wonder what else she was hiding from you.
Erika Granger to Envy: The possibilities are terrifying as they are endless.

Title: Night Disturbances
Description: I need to sleep. Need sleep.
Video: *Video starts. Scene is black before white text appears on screen*
Text: Night Disturbances
Video: *Cuts to black before more text*
Text: The following happened about half an hour ago.
Video: *Footage cuts to the camera resting on Erika's bedside locker with the night vision on, while Erika sleeps in bed. It is quiet until faint music can be heard. Erika stirs a little in her sleep from being woken and slowly wakes up*
Erika: Wh-what? *Sits up and hears music* Oh, God damn it!
Video: *Erika grabs the camera and turns the night vision off before quickly turning on her lamp and getting out of bed. Erika grumbles something incoherent as she leaves her room and walks right across to the study room where the computer is on. The media player is on, and the music playing is 'The Industrial Revolution (and how it ruined my life)', by Voltaire*
Erika: Fucking Ben. *Clicks music off*
Video: *Erika turns around to leave but music comes back on. It's another Voltaire song, this time it's 'Stakes and Torches'*
Erika: No. Off. I have class in the morning!
Video: *Erika clicks the music off again, and when she does Cleverbot pops up from her internet browser*
Cleverbot: There's always another day for learning. Why not lay back and listen to music? Though one or two of your stuff kinda sucks.
Erika: Excuse me if I like some classic swing and not some crap about how awesome being rich and having sex is!
Cleverbot: The only thing I can guarantee is the later if I'm involved.
Erika: *Momentarily taken back* Wh-what? No! No, get the heck off my computer! And not out here!
Cleverbot: Okay.
Video: *Cleverbot closes down and Erika sighs in relief*
Erika: Great. peace now. Now to turn this off.
Video: *Erika turns the computer off and unplugs it. She turns around but the sound of the computer turning on is heard. Erika turns around and the computer is on again. Even with the plug out*
Erika: What... But, how...?
Video: *Cleverbot pops up again and Erika goes back to the computer*
Cleverbot: Got you! XD
Erika: ... You know what? Nuts to this. Play some damn music if you want! I'm going to bed!
Video: *Erika leaves the room and goes to her own. She only shuts the door when she hears a low whistle and turns around to see Ben giving a dark, crooked smirk at her. Almost smug like*
Ben: You really shouldn't have done that~.
Video: *In a panic, Erika runs out of the room and down the stairs. She runs through her living room area and through the kitchen area into the guest bedroom. There, Erika locks both doors shut*
Erika: *Panting* S-safe.
Video: *Happy Mask Salesman laughter can be heard and Erika looks around before looking at the bed, where her laptop is open, with a black screen*
Erika: M-my laptop? That wasn't here, I-
Video: *A message pops up on the screen*
Message: Isn't this a fun game like I promised it would be in the beginning? Ah, you were so naive then. I wonder what your reaction would have been if you were not so God damn stubborn?
Erika: WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME! WHAT. DO. YOU WANT?! I'M SICK OF THIS AND I WANT IT TO END! *Shaky breathing*
Message: Isn't it clear? Y-O-U. You'll be with us after your second birthday.
Erika: Wh-what?
Message: Like myself, Jack, Jeff... ALL.
Erika: N-no. This... I can't...
Message: We'll be friends and play forever and ever! But not yet. This is all the buildup to the fireworks finale!
Erika: NO! IF YOU WANT TO KILL ME, JUST DO IT ALREADY! I'M SICK OF BEING PLAYED WITH!
Message: Hehe. But if we did, it won't be nearly as entertaining! Seeing you breaking down, wanting this to all end, maybe even wanting to die... This is how it's meant to go for you. It will never change.
Erika: LEAVE ME ALONE! JUST, *sniff* Just leave me alone!
Message: ... NO! XD
Video: *Happy Mask Salesman music begins again as Erika starts to breakdown crying and drops the camera to the ground, and can be heard dropping to her knees soon after. Footage cuts to black before text appears*
Text: It stops about ten minutes ago. I'm still shaken.
Video: *Before video ends, there is scratchy red text on the screen*
Text: You shall feel the pains of fire.
