"Hello?" Mark called out as he appeared in a dark room strapped down to some kind of table, a bright light abruptly blinding him.

Doctor Schneeplestien stood over Mark with light blue strings attached to his limbs and green glowing eyes, a bloody scalpel in hand as he grinned psychotically.

"Hello and velcome to mein ER." Henrik greeted the YouTuber, cracking his neck as Mark fought against the restraints keeping him on the table.

"I vould suggest not struggling if you vant zhis to be painless. Or keep struggling, I vould love to listen to your screams." Henrik remarked casually, gently tracing the scalpel horizontally across Mark's neck with a thoughtful expression.

"Get away from me!" Mark snapped, head-butting Henrik hard enough to cause the German to stagger back slightly in surprise.

Henrik quickly recovered, then moved to slice Mark's stomach before something made him hesitate. "Vhat...vhat is zhis, vhat is happening?"

"Doc you gotta listen to me, Jack-"

"Don't say zhat name!" Henrik shot back fiercely, stabbing the scalpel blade into Mark's hand before twisting to earn a pained cry from Mark.

He chuckled mirthlessly as he pulled the scalpel out, looking at the blood with a thoughtful expression. "Vhen zhe good doctor is here..." He looked at Mark and grinned. "Death is near."

Mark struggled against the restraints, his eyes wide. "Stop this isn't you! Let me go so I can save Jack and the others, please!"

Henrik hesitated again, the green glow faltering long enough for him to free Mark from the restraints before losing control again.

Mark retreated back from Henrik before lunging forward, tackling him to the ground to try and get the scalpel from him so he could cut the strings.

Henrik grunted and lashed out wildly, Mark managing to grab his wrist and twist to make him drop the scalpel. "Henrik please work with me here, let me help you!"

Henrik twitched slightly and closed his eyes with a groan, opening them a moment later to reveal normal blue eyes. "M...Mark? I-I can't-"

"I know, I know. Don't worry doc." Mark grabbed the scalpel and cut all of the strings, sighing in relief when they disappeared.

"Danke." Henrik murmured, rubbing his wrists as he shakily stood and reached into his lab coat pocket to hand Mark a tape

Mark nodded and took the tape, jumping in surprise when he immediately returned to the tape room with Henrik.

"Henrik, you're okay!" Marvin ran forward and hugged him tight, relieved to see him again.

Mark watched them a moment before putting the tape he got into the player, biting his lip nervously as he listened.

There was silence for a long time before Jack spoke in a barely audible whisper, his voice shaky and hoarse from crying. "Anti...Anti's got my egos, all of 'em, and he's corrupted Google as well. I'm alone, and terrified I'm gonna die at any moment, I keep having to find new places to hide just so I feel safer. Whoever's listening, please...save them."

Mark sighed softly and hugged himself, glancing at Marvin and Henrik. "So, who else came with you?"

Henrik thought a moment. "Zhere vas myself, Marvin, Jackie, Jameson, Chase, Robbie, and Anti."

"Wait a minute, Anti came with you guys? He's the one keeping Jack here and threatening his life!" Mark frowned in confusion and paced.

"Ya know, I'm not surprised that you think this is truly Anti. Really fits the kind of shit he would do, wouldn't it?"

Mark jumped in surprise as Anti appeared in front of them, his body glitching violently as he calmly clasped his hands behind his back.

"Anti?" Henrik spoke up tentatively, taking a step towards him before Marvin shook his head and gently held him back.

"That's not Anti...the virus isn't strong enough to have its own body, so it's possessed Anti since he's a glitch too." Marvin murmured, his eyes narrowed as he watched Anti.

"It won't be long until I'm strong enough to leave and take over this world." Anti grinned, twirling his knife before glitching away.

Mark cursed under his breath, looking at Marvin and Henrik. "What do we do? We can't let that virus thing out, and he definitely can't keep possessing Anti..."

"Ve have to save zhe other egos, together ve can stop him." Henrik stated, Marvin nodding in agreement.

"Hopefully none of my other egos pop in here to try and get me out." Mark muttered, thinking of Google.

"I'm pretty sure Google is the only one of your egos that can get in here, the only reason why we're all here is 'cause I have magic." Marvin assured him.

"Right...guess I should see who's next." Mark walked back out to the main computer, glancing back at the egos before pressing the start button and watching the world go black.
