Hank's POV

I awoke in the middle of the night to growling. Looking down, I saw my dog growling at something. I looked over and saw a shadow next to my wardrobe. I shrugged it off as the usual shadow and shushed my dog. 

"Bud, it's ok. Nothing's there." I muttered and went to fall asleep. I was nearly asleep when I heard white noise. I jolted upright and looked towards a glowing area and seeing my alarm clock  full of static. I yelled and jumped back causing Panda to start barking again. He then looked to my wardrobe and started growling again. I rolled my eyes and sighed, getting out of bed to go turn on the lights. I was internally freaking out, but the saying fake it 'till you make it was repeating in my head. The light switch was right next to my door and opposite of my wardrobe. I walked to it and switched it on with my back turned to the shadow. I was about to turn around again when I felt arms wrap around me, pinning my arms to my sides. I went to scream, but they quickly covered my mouth, still holding my arms in place with one arm. It then clicked what the shadow was.. not just a shadow, but a human. I fought against them, but didn't have long as about a second later someone came through my bedroom door and put a cloth to my mouth and nose. At that point I was already out,of breath, so I instinctively breathed in. I felt the person behind me let go of me and I stumbled around like a drunk as the corners of my vision started turning black. I heard my dog barking as I fell to my knees. I felt him come over and start to lick my face. There wasn't much of my vision left, and what was there had darkened a bit already. I smiled at my dog before falling forwards. He must've moved because I hit the floor. My vision was gone, but I was still conscious. I felt someone pick me up and heard Panda start barking again. I didn't want them to get hurt so I quietly muttered to them.

"Panda... go.. get.. _____." I heard them whimper, then their claws clicking down the hallway quickly. I felt the cloth get pushed to my mouth and nose again. Shit, they must've heard me. The last thing I heard before losing consciousness was someone's voice.

"The second wasn't that hard... huh."

_____'s POV

I woke up to my alarm again and almost immedietly got dressed. I put on a (red or black) woolen long-sleeved shirt as it didn't look to warm outside. I went with black jeans to match, along with some black socks and a (brown, white, or black) belt. I ran downstairs and quickly ate a thing of yogurt before putting on my (white, brown, or black) ankle boots and grabbing my backpack. I sprinted to Hank's house to be met with an open door. I immedietly knew something was wrong and ran in.

"Hank?" I called out, hoping someone would answer me. Nothing. I sprinted up to his room, hoping that he was still sleeping. I opened his bedroom door and went in, finding the room a mess. Whilst that was kinda usual for Hank, this felt a little weird. I felt someone behind me and spun around to be greeted by Panda. He tilted his head at me. 

"Where's Hank?" I asked. He shook his head, then turned around and started running. I followed him, falling into a sprint. "Panda?" I called out. He ignored me. I followed him to Eclipse's house and watched as he pushed the door open. I looked at him confused. Eclipse always had her doors locked. I pushed past him as I walked. Into her house. The foyer rug had been moved over to the side. I frowned as Eclipse usually didn't allow that. Walking downstairs, I saw the hallway was an absolute mess. Things were scattered around the table she kept there and I saw a couple pictures had been knocked off the wall. I walked into her room to see her clock on her bed, her blankets almost off her bed, a small dent in her closet door, her trash can knocked over, everything knocked off her nightstand, and her hammer in the middle of it all. My eyes widened and stung a little signifying tears. I quickly ran upstairs and called 911 with the knowledge that both my good friends had been kidnapped. Panda watched over me the entire time.

Eclipse's POV

The first thing I felt was my head pounding. Then was my arms, my let wrist stung a little as well. Then came my aching torso, followed up by my sore legs. I very carefully and slowly opened my eyes as my vision was returned to me. I then carefully turned my head to look at the brownish nightstand which had an alarm clock on it. My hearing came back to me and I heard a beeping being emitted from the small device. I frowned, then shot up as my memory came back to me. I looked around the room to see a small desk and chair at the foot of my bed, a closet next to my nightstand, a bookcase with a T.V. on my left wall, and two green mats on the floor next to the queen-sized bed I was in. I felt like I recognized this place, but couldn't quite put my finger on it. I got out of bed and walked to the closet finding multiple pairs of the same shirt, jumper, skirt, shoes, socks, and jacket. I frowned. This felt familiar.... too familiar. Was it...  no. I shook that thought off and took a pair of each. I put on the white collared shirt, orange jumper, tan button up jacket, short blue skirt, knee-high white socks, and white and blue shoes. I frowned momentarily at the length of the skirt - it only went to about the middle of my thighs - before walking out the bedroom door. I found myself in a hallway. There was a door parallel to my bedroom, then stairs going down. I walked across and opened the door to be greeted with a bathroom. There was a white boxed-in shower across from a white toilet. In front of the door was a sink and mirror. I looked at my reflection and nearly yelled out. My hair now went down to about the bottom of the skirt. That wasn't what surprised me though. Instead of being it's normal brown, it was cobalt. I grabbed my hair and pulled on it to make sure that it was real, which it was. I shook my head at it. Walking over to the sink, I opened a drawer and found a bunch of hair things, including a hairbrush. I quickly grabbed it and turned on the water in the sink. I got the hairbrush wet before turning the water off, flicking some of the water off the hairbrush, and brushing my hair. As I was doing so, I noticed that my eyes were now a bright green instead of a duller one, meaning the difference in color was greater now. My left eye was a blue-green whilst my right was an orange-green. It was kinda odd really. I finished brushing my hair and walked downstairs. I decided to grab an apple to eat. Before I could eat it though, I felt a pulling in my chest. I followed it to the door where a backpack was laying. I sighed and put my apple in the backpack, before leaving the house and closing the door behind me. I was walking down the street when I was suddenly stopped somewhere near another road by a pink box. I looked closer and saw there was white writing inside. As I read the word inside it, my eyes grew wide as I realized where I might be.

"Heeeeeeeeyyy!!" As I read this, I heard a voice call it out too. It was higher pitched,  it not high enough where they sounded annoying. I put my hand out and pressed the pink box out of instinct. The text disappeared and was replaced by new text.

'I see an annoying girl running toward me from the distance, waving her arms in the air like she's totally oblivious to any attention she might draw to herself.' I turn around at that and see the salmon-haired girl that proved beyond any doubt, that I have somehow been sucked into a game. My favorite game actually, Doki Doki Literature Club. I look down at the box which moved in front of me again. I knew I was going to be seeing this thing a lot. I click it yet again.

'That girl is Sayori, my neighbor and good friend since we were children.'

'You know, the kind of friend you' never see yourself making today, but it just kinda works out because you've known each other so long?'

'We used to walk to school together on days like this, but starting around high school she began to oversleep more and more frequently, and I got tired of waiting up.' My eyes welled up a bit as I remembered that much like me, she had depression and was mildly suicidel. My anger for Monica grew as I remembered what she caused her to do.

'But if she's going to case after me like this, I almost feel better running away.' As always, I burst out laughing at this part. It was always kinda funny to me for no reason at all.

'However, I just sigh and idle in front of the crosswalk and let Sayori catch up.' She ran up to me and stood in front of me, clearly tired from running this much. I smiled at her.

"Haaahhh...haaahhh..." She breathed out.

"I overslept again!" She finally said after she was rested enough. She had her eyes closed.

"But I caught you this time!" She said after, the text in the white box tracking what she said. I looked to the box to see my name replace Sayori's. Text came up and I repeated it as to not ruin the game yet.

"Maybe, but only because I decided to stop and wait for you." I said, internally wincing at how I had to act towards her. She opened her sea blue eyes and looked at me, putting on a pouting expression and putting her fingers together, along with leaning forward a bit.

"Eeehhhhh... you say that like you were thinking about ignoring me." I slightly tipped my head momentarily as if to say 'fair play.'

"That's mean Eclipse!" I guess I kinda agreed with her on that one. I again looked to the box for what I was supposed to say.

"Well if people stare at you for acting weirdly I don't want them to think we're a couple or something." 'Great,' I thought. 'Now everyone in this thing is gay or bi. What the fuck have I don't to them?' I wondered briefly.

"Fine fine." She said and stood up straight, smiling at me. I recognized her usual stance too well.

"But you did wait for me after all." She said next. I nodded.

"I guess you don't have it in you to be mean even if you wanted to-" I smiled.

"Whatever you say, Sayori." I repeated from the box. I saw it change to actions this time.

'We cross the street and make our way to school.' We did exactly what it said.

'As we draw near the streets become increasingly speckled with other students making their daily commute.' I'm not going to explain this one.

"By the way, Eclipse." Sayori says, making me look away from the box.

"Have you decided on a club to join yet?" I chuckled to myself, knowing I had no choice. Especially not if I want to get out of this game. 

"A club?" I asked, already knowing this.

"I told you already, I'm really not interested in joining any clubs." Course ya aren't, but do ya have a choice? No.

"I haven't been looking, either." Well... yes, that much was true.

"Eh? That's not true!" She said, putting her hands up with fists my her head and an almost betrayed look on her face.

"You told me you would join a club this year!"

"Did I...?" I asked, feeling stupid for having to go over this again, though I already know the answer.

'I'm sure it's possible I did, in one of our many conversations where I dismissively go on with whatever she's going on about.' I began to click the box again when I discovered a small white button at the bottom of it. Looking closer, I saw it was the skip button. I sighed in relief and pressed it, immedietly getting teleported to my classroom just as the bell rang.
