Chapter 3: Smallest Delight
Number 1 moaned a little on the count of he fell flat on his face. There was so much that happened in such little time. He looked down and saw his clothes were kept neat and his glasses untouched. But he was worrying more about his team and their where-about's.
"Where am I?"
He gazed around what seemed like the inside of the tree-house. But everything was in place, nothing broken, no storm and no evil figure. He sighed gratefully, and then remembered about his team.
"Number 2?" he shouted out first.
No one replied.
He began to take a step forward and heard a crash behind him.
"Nu-number 4?" he stuttered turning swiftly around.
"Number 5....number 3?"
Sweat started to build up and he got nervous. A shadowy figure crept up behind him. Nigel caught on quick and turned around to see...
"Lizzie!?"
"Hiiiii Niggie," she said girlishly.
"Wha...what are you doing here?"
#1 gave her a light hug. Lizzie giggled and looked up at #1 seductively.
"I'm here to take care of you, Niggie."
She started to reach out and grab his shoulders but #1 stepped back. Lizzie blinked in confusion.
"Lizzie," #1 started. "Before we...uh...do anything," said Nigel flustered. "I need to know where my team is."
Lizzie stared at him them laughed.
"Oh Niggie, your so silly"
#1 was confused. Lizzie chuckled and replied slyly that they were okay. She went again for #1 but he again backed off.
"Lizzie, I really need to know where my team is!" said #1 seriously this time.
Lizzie glared at him but refused to give #1 a proper answer. #1 got a little uneasy with the whole situation.
"Lizzie, where is my TEAM?" Nigel shouted.
Lizzie stepped back and hung her head. She then looked up at #1 with pure hatred.
"You care about your stupid team more than ME!"
She lunged herself at #1, knocking him down. They both wrestled on the ground, #1 having a bit of trouble since Lizzie was rather large. She managed to pin him down and looked him straight in the eyes.
"Nigel, if you say you love me then I might let you live."
#1 was absolutely appalled to hear her say such a thing. He glared back at her through his sunglasses.
"Lizzie," #1 said in a peeved voice. "Where's my TEAM!?"
With all his strength he shoved Lizzie off and got into a defensive position. Lizzie got up, screamed, and pulled a dagger out of nowhere. She again rushed at him but quickly, #1 ducked down and placed his foot out in attempt to trip her. Nigel not realizing that she already ran past him, got up in confusion. Lizzie snickered behind him and he turned around.
"What the.." #1 said in confusion.
An evil laugh came from nowhere and Yume appeared.
"Have you forgotten already #1...your in my world now." she said.
Lizzie waved at #1 mockingly.
"But I..." started #1 who was cut off by Yume.
"I make the rules here and you can't hurt my creations, but..." Yume lowered her voice in a sly tone. "They can hurt you."
#1 felt something wet trickle down his arm and finally realized Lizzie cut him when ducking. The tree-house vanished and Nigel's clothes went from neat to torn, his glasses perfect, to scratched. His surroundings changed from good to worse as he now found himself in a long and narrow tunnel.
"Hope you can run," Yume winked then vanished, along with the fake Lizzie. #1 heard a crash behind him. He nervously turned around and saw a giant boulder rolling toward him not far on his trail. He gulped then began sprinting, ignoring the sting of his wound.
Meanwhile, Yume was in the storm floating next to #3 watching the KND suffer. She looked at her hands which were now fully visible and no longer holograms. She smirked and thought to herself.
"The more the KND suffer, the more powerful I become, and soon I won't need this girl's dreams to wreck my havoc." "I'll be able to create this world into my own nightmare, and no one will be able to stop me."
She laughed out loud at the thought of her ruling all.
"Now..." Yume said gazing into the game's screen. "Who shall be my next victim?"
She smirked as her eyes fell upon #5, and with that she faded into #3's dream.
