(Tatum POV)

"I am so done with this shit! Kill me now!" I shout.

"With pleasure." Sebastian says, walking closer.
"Not literal!"

"I rather we not deal with soulless females." Erwin says, leading the group as we trudge through the demonically psychedelic office.

We passed rooms that are all identical. A chair, a circular table, and a cup. Nothing more in the blue and orange rooms. We walked past a room but as soon as we did, I stopped.

"That room was different!" I shout, as the anime characters turn to look at me with curious faces.

I rush back to the room and my mouth drops open. The carpet is black, the ceiling and floor are also black and a giant table with many T.V. screens on it. Each had yellow tape with a name on it. They all had static.

"...What...is this?" Whispers Scar.

"I have no idea."
"Do you-" France screams as one of the T.V.s bring to life.

The rest of the room broke into yells and I screamed. A manly shout I mean! I heard other more manly shouts and a girly scream. Probably from France.

"...Seriously, Erwin?" Kyoya says.

"Oh my God that scream did not come from you."

"Of course not! Ask the demon!"

We all turn to Sebastian but he stays quiet.

"...Okay then."

"Wait...what does that tape say, France?"

"Um...Haberkorn…"

"Hello~? Hellooooo?" An Italian voice asks from the screen.

"ITALY?!" Screeches France.

"This is bothering me, LET ME JUST CUT THE CURL! FOR THE NAME OF SYMMETRY!" another voice shouts.

"No nooooooo!" Italy whimpers.

"Hey! Stop fighting!" The screen pops up to Todd, Death the Kid and Italy all at the screen. Italy is crying, Death the Kid looks ready for battle, and Todd is in the middle of the two.

"Todd! How's life?" I say, looking at the screen.

"Well I got sucked into a weird office building with a bunch of anime characters that I've voiced. Other than that, things are just peachy."

I laugh. "Looks like I'm not the only one then."

"Huh?"

"Bonjour~!" France says, winking and looking at the screen.

"...Please tell me that's not France."

"Oui, I am him."
Todd looked at me, his eyes full of shared sympathy.

"Dude, I am so sorry."
"EXCUSEZ-MOI? JE SUIS JUSTE ICI!" Shout France.

"Calm down, Blondie." Grunts Scar.

"Oo~! Is that Scar?" A voice says, pushing Death the Kid out of the way.

"Oh for the love of God! I am not dealing with your arrogant princely ass again!" Scar shouts.

Ling Yao pouts but then breaks into a goofy smile.

"Is your name Tatum?" He asks.

"Uh, yeah."

"Hm, that's the name on the tape on this screen. I just guessed." He shrugged and grinned.

"Oh my- is anyone from Ouran there?" Asks another voice.

"Er, I don't know." Replies Todd. His vision swivels back to the screen.

"Uh, who you got?" He asks.

"Demon butler, Frenchie, Ishvalan Batman, Commander Leaf Brows and Money Manager." I reply, getting a bunch of growls and huffs from the anime characters on my side of the T.V. screen.

"So Sebastian, France, Scar, Erwin and Kyoya."

"Pretty much, yes."

"Alright I got...um...just come over when I say your name." Todd orders.

"Okay, I got...Natsu." He says as a pink haired teen with a striped scarf and brown eyes appears in view, grinning.

"Italy."
"Pastaaaaa~!" Italy yells, appearing in the screen with a smile.

"Hikaru."

The red haired twin in question came in view and made a peace sign.

"Hiya!" Hikaru grinned.

"And you already saw Death the Kid and Ling Yao. That's pretty much everyone."

"Where are you guys?" I ask, narrowing my eyes.

"Same room as you."
"How is that possible?"

"Well from what I gathered we're in different pocket dimensions that have the same terrain. But, as I found this map-" Death the Kid explains as he holds up a yellowing building map with a red circle in the center.

"-The circle is where we need to all meet up. It's the lapse where all of the pocket dimensions overlap and where we can all see each other. And I'm also guessing that's where we'll find who's responsible for this." Death the Kid finishes, sighing.

I blink.

"Um, okay. So Theseus's maze type thing, essentially." I say, simplifying The Kid's explanation.

"Yes...essentially."

"I don't know if this helps, but only some of the tape strips and the only words I see are 'Sinclair', 'Palencia', 'Mignogna', 'Jewell' and...the rest are smudged." Calls Erwin, who's examining the other T.V. screens.

"So Jerry, Brina, Vic and Ian are here too, eh?" Todd muses.

"Seems so."

"Well…" Todd smirks, along with Natsu, Hikaru, Ling Yao, Death the Kid, and even Italy.

And then it strikes me. We have more impact on our characters than I originally thought. They are apart of us. They have a little bit of us in them. We created their voices and essentially their personalities. And it makes me feel happy.

"Let's hatch up a plan."

Excusez-moi? Je suis juste ici = Excuse me? I'm right here

bonjour = hello!
