"Hey, Tiffany. I'm home." Justin shouted, coming through the front door of his humble suburban home.

He saw his blonde girlfriend sitting on the couch, remaining completely silent. He saw the look on her face, figuring that she was worried about where he went.

"Look, if you're wondering where I was, I was just at Vinnie's house helping him plan his weddi-"

"Waffleslam91..." she said, saying an odd assortment of words.

Although it seemed like she was just speaking random phrases, Justin knew exactly what she was trying to say.

"Heh, heh. You're so cute, Tiffany. Giving breakfast at Tiffany's a whole new meaning, huh?" he said, sounding totally hysterical.

She sighed, knowing this was the type of behavior she expected.

"Don't try to avoid it, babe. You've kept it hidden long enough." she said with a serious and stern tone.

Fuck, I'm literally in ANOTHER corner!

"Who told you?" he said, ready to finally fess up about his online life.

"Ms. Yumi did."

Fuck! Aiko snitched on me.

"Nah, she's probably full of shit. You know she's a camgirl, right?" he said, trying to change the subject.

"Justin." the blondie stated. "This has nothing to do with Ms. Yumi or her career."

"Well, if she's the one stalking my pages, then she clearly-"

"She wasn't stalking your pages." Tiffany interrupted.

"Then how did she-?"

"Please stop talking so I can explain."

JD knew she was serious this time. He zipped his lip and let his girlfriend speak her word, now that the jig was up.

"Look, from what she told me: she had received an email from one of her fans. It started normal enough, just casually saying how much they were attracted to her and loved her cam shows. But then, they started getting into unfamiliar territory, talking about someone they knew who was being cyber bullied, asking for advice and telling her that internet celebrities were bad business."

Uh oh...

"So, how did she find out about Waffleslam?" he asked.

"At the end of the email, they attached a link leading to an unlisted video of some French guy lashing out a someone named JustinDark98... Does that name sound familiar?"

She's finally caught me...

"Y-Yeah... That happened." he said, getting a bit nervous.

"Babe, is that why you've been more depressed lately?" she asked, wanting to get clarity for his recent mental decline.

He stood there for a moment, trying not to have a mental breakdown. She saw it in his eyes. The blondie then walked up to him and gave him a tight hug, realizing that she may have been wrong about some things.

"Baby, I am so, SO sorry you've been going through this." she said, squeezing him.

Baby? That's a rare name. She never calls me that.

"Yeah... It wasn't my call, but Stefano sold me and several others out on his TeleYube livestreams."

"Stefano?" she asked, still not completely familiar with the owners of Waffleslam.

He sat down, ready to explain his story with the internet heroes he became involved with.

"Stefano and Cyd were a pair of brothers I watched as a child. They made a bunch of funny videos where one brother would prank another. Sometimes, Cyd would freak out and it was hilarious. They went MIA for several years, but they suddenly came back last Summer. Unfortunately, a few months ago, the greed got into Stefano's head and he basically scared off several viewers that he knew had mental issues, me being one of them. That's when the drama unfolded..."

She nodded, getting a bit more of an understanding to the situation.

"So basically: Your childhood hero from TeleYube discouraged you live in front of everyone?"

"Y-Yeah. He slandered me and said I was too fucked up to be kept on the streets. He even said I should've stayed locked up."

Wow! What a douche bag. Nobody talks to my boyfriend like that.

"So, let me ask you this: Who are those people you keep messaging on your phone?"

He shrugged, ready to reveal the worst part of this ongoing issue.

"They're... A bunch of trolls who keep making new accounts to harass me and try and dox me. All of them were sent on Stefano's behalf. The most recurring ones are Dwayne Benton, BroPapa89, some dude named Ahmetut, and a few other assholes."

"Oh..." she said, feeling even more sorry for her already struggling boyfriend.

"Y-Yeah. So, that's why I've been on my phone a lot more lately: To block any of there alt accounts that message me on QuickiePic or any other socials they find me on."

Tiffany then hugged him again, glad she finally solved the mystery of what was happening to him behind the scenes.

"Have you tried to call the police?" she asked, wondering why he never went to the authorities.

He shook his head. "No, I can't."

"Why not?"

"It's because all of these people live in several different parts of the world, half of which I have no clue where they live exactly."

"What about that Stefano guy? Why not call the police on him?"

"I... I'd rather not get sailed down the river with him. He's a manipulative asshole. Me and him formed a friendship after being a fan since I was a teen. Seemed good until he exiled me and like thirty other people from his community. Then, as insult to injury, he sent his mods and doxxers after them."

"Do you know where he lives, at least?" she asked.

"Tiffany... Why do you think I didn't want to tell you?"

"I'm just asking, babe. I could at least try and help you."

He backed away, realizing that sharing this information with her might be something he'd regret.

"What's wrong with you?"

He sighed, thinking even he was being a tad ridiculous. But still, he had his reasons.

"I didn't want you to get involved. This is my battle to fight in, not yours. I don't want you to get hurt, okay? No doubt the robber that was here might have something to do with Stefano and Cyd Swire."

She frowned, thinking he was sort of right. However, she still felt obligated to help in any way she possibly could.

"Where do they live? I'm not gonna do anything risky, I just wanna know where these douche bags are from."

"They live in a city up North called Indigopolis."

Tiffany nodded, somewhat familiar with the name of this city.

"And what's even worse is that his channel icon is literally an indigo colored waffle, aka a BLUE waffle."

She shook her head in disgust, thinking that this Stefano Swire person was a total scumbag and gave breakfast a bad name.

"I wish you would've told me sooner." she said, still disappointed she was kept in the dark about all of this.

"Yeah, I'm sorry, Tiffany. I just... I didn't want you to get involved with internet drama. It really takes a toll on your mental health, you know?"

"I understand, but you could've at least tried to tell me. It's sad how some random person sends Ms. Yumi an email about her cam show, then talks about you at the same time. It's almost as if someone is watching you or some shit."

Speaking of which...

"I know. But, I have to use the restroom real quick. I spent all day eating junk food and hanging out with some friends. So, you could imagine how crampy my stomach's feeling right now."

The blondie nodded, understanding he needed a little bit of privacy.

But right before he went in, she stopped him with a random question.

"Have you been drinking, by any chance?" she asked. He turned around, trying to play it cool.

"I... I may have had a shot or two, but that's it. Why?"

"I'm just asking. You kind of smelled like whiskey or something."

He nodded, not completely denying that he had a drink.

"Hey, know your limit." she said, making sure he wasn't going to be addicted.

"I know." he said, proceeding to walk towards the bathroom.

JD then went inside and locked the door, even though it was relatively easy to unlock from the outside. Still, it felt like an extra layer of security to him.

He then picked his phone up, acting like he was going to call someone. But really, he knew who snitched on him.

"I warned you." the pink-haired fairy said, knowing he was already aware of who the culprit was.

"Kyu, what the fuck?" he said, still holding his cellphone by his ear as if he were talking to someone.

"I don't bullshit with you, homie. If I say I'm gonna do something, I fucking do it. You know, if you would've done it yourself, things would've much less harmful."

"But why did you email Aiko, of all people? Why not email Tiffany instead?" he asked, wondering why she did it in that regard.

"Well, I ain't gonna just try and find your girlfriend's email just to say I love her and shit. Besides, you know how I am about Aiko? I have the BIGGEST girl-boner for her. I figured I'd email Ms. Allison Chainz to say how sexy she is, then go on about your online drama and what you've been dealing with."

Although he knew the love fairy was trying to help, or so it seemed, he knew it was still out of line for her to email the Japanese woman randomly like that. At the same time though, she did kind of shed some light on what was going on with him.

"Thanks, I guess." he said, trying to show some appreciation to his ex-mentor.

"Hey, it was the least I could do. But, I just wanted to ask you something, and I need the full scoop, okay? Don't sugar coat shit for Mama Sugardust."

Ugh...

"Yeah?" he said, ready to answer some more repetitive questions.

"What are you?"

The moment she said that, he started to feel on edge. It was almost as if she knew some bizarre shit that was outside of his usual, awkward, nerdy self.

"What am I? Don't you mean WHO am I?"

The love fairy shook her head. "No, WHAT are you? You seem like you've had some shit done to you and you never said anything. This isn't the same person I trained over three years ago."

Fuck, what do we do?

"I'm... I'm a freak of nature, let's just say that." he said, being very ominous to who he actually is.

"Freak of nature? What are you saying?"

"I... I don't know. But all you need to know is that I defeated the Nymphojinn and saved the universe. Just be grateful for that, alright?"

"Bro..." Kyu said. "I think you're slowly turning into a psycho."

"And I think you're slowly turning into an annoying bitch."

The love fairy suddenly became uncomfortable, realizing that this man, this thing... Wasn't who he said he was. Justin Dark had a deeper meaning.

"Babe, is everything alright in there?" Tiffany shouted from outside.

"Y-Yeah, Tiffany. I'm just talking on the phone." he said, glaring at Kyu.

"I'm gonna have to keep my eyes on you. You're acting very fucking weird, my guy." she said.

"I'm not your guy, bitch!" he shouted, having some kind of recoil to hearing the word my guy.

"I'm not your bitch, guy! You're MY bitch, not the other way around. Don't think I can't see right through you, JD. Something happened in Greenseed, and I think I'm gonna find out..."

Hearing that name pop up again made him become enraged. He then tried to pin Kyu to the wall, but she disappeared into thin air before he could even touch the love fairy.

"Fuck..." he said to himself. Even though everyone else didn't suspect a thing, Kyu Sugardust was now becoming suspicious.

He came out and greeted his blonde girlfriend, trying not to worry about the potential consequences for what had just happened.

"Who was on the phone? Telemarketers again?" she asked.

He nodded, trying to cover up what he was actually doing in there.

They went to bed that evening, deciding to have the occasional sex, as JD was in a desperate need of a release this time around.

But the worry of what was coming was vast. The thought of Percy Farrington declaring war on him, the discovery of Stefano Swire betraying him online, the stalker he was experiencing, and even the possibility of his ex-mentor taking his current life away was all but pleasant.

Shit felt tense now, and he had no idea when or IF he would ever get out of it...
