Chapter Text
Player POV:
———————
I hit the device with the ball. It seems to malfunction, and before I know it I feel myself loosing my footing and sucked inside… Before everything goes black.
Narrator POV:
———————
Player is awaken to the screaming, as a penguin (known as Terry) awakes them. “Did you have a good nap?” Terry asks, and as the player nods in response, he exclaims “good, now GET OUT OF MY BED”
And with that, player leaps from the bed, crashing into the ground from the shock. They scramble to stand, and as they do they are met with the ramble from Terry. They can’t exactly focus on what they have to say, as they feel an acute sense of Deja vu. Like they’ve done this before… but it’s all off, just ever so slightly… and this is proven by them stepping out the door to the hotel room, seeing a new figure at the desk… They don’t recognize them, but they feel as if it’s different.
They see what looks to be a blue tissue box humanoid at the counter. As she noticed him, she perks up. “Ah, are you Player? I have a letter here from Shedletsky.” She says, with a soft tone. As she hands them a letter. Upon opening it, it explains how the Player needs to meet him at the Roblox HQ.
They step out into the broad city, and everything is ever so slightly off. Just a creeping sense of dread. The city seems emptier than it should. Almost like a town in a zombie movie. There are a few refugees, but not many.
They see a strange figure with a fedora and a suit on. They seem to be walking in circles, counting some poker chips their hands. Meanwhile mumbling to themselves about “the odds of that happening” or something. Either way, the player needs directions. So they approach the man.
“Hey, uh- do you know the way to Roblox HQ?” The Player says, voice a bit weak. They were unaware how horrible they sounded due to not talking much.
“Hm?” The figure replied. “Oh, the HQ? Think it’s that way.” They loosely point in a direction. “Say, if you ever need to make a quick buck, I’ll likely be staying here for a bit.” They offer, as they flip a coin. “Just ask for Chance at the casino, I’ll probably be there.”
With that, they chuckle as they walk off. Player can’t help but think of the strange character they just met as they begin to travel.
This adventure had just begun, and it’s already weird.
