What happened to you?

Mephone and oj sat in a room together, mephones room. since they found clovers dead body in the hotel, they decided they have to figure this out. Even if both mephone and oj were going through losing someone important to them. tear-stained eyes, obvious they both weren't over them. what's the point of feelings, relationships; when everything ends anyway?

"Okay, so Fan was gone first. Right?" Oj pushed a stack of pictures- pictures of each person that was missing- into the middle. "Why do you just have this?" mephone questioned concerningly. "Don't ask questions. Just cmon." The pair organized the images, taking out the few people that were still there. ojs heart dropped at the image of paper. His beloved. The one he failed.He flipped it over, placing it under his knee. Hiding it. the pictures were now neatly in a square, going in order of who went missing when. Mephone sighed hopelessly."hey." Oj placed his arm on mephones shoulder.

"We WILL get to the bottom of this."Mephone smiled softly. "listen. I'm not one to give these, but.." he awkwardly put his arms out, pulling oj in for a hug. it was really weirdly positioned because they were both sitting on the floor. It was the worst hug ever. 

after letting eachother out of that weird hug lock, they continued with their 'detective-ing.' (What Mephone called it. It's stupid, I know.)

They were determined.But we all know what determination can do to a person.

———————————————————————————- "ALRIGHT EVERYONE, LISTEN UP!" Mephone announced to the group. A sad womp effect played in his head when he realized how small the group was. He attempted to count in his head how many- Like five people. sad. The group listened, staring at mephone who was just currently muttering to himself. Oj took control. "Okay, so, i know these have all ended badly and nobody came back. But, it just means since we are all thats left- nobody will be left and worried!!"

The group stared concerned. "Okay so clearly oj isnt in a good headspace right now." Box muttered, earning a giggle from the group. oj just shot a glare. "Anyway. We need to go searching. Me and mephone think we found a lead on where everyone might be. So, just go along with us. Alright??"

a good 10 minutes of silence. ..and then, a few nods. "Good enough." Mephone thought to himself.

and, stupidly enough? The group prepared to head out..

With zero idea about what they were about to walk into. like some idiots in a horror movie. Walking right into the trap.————————————————————————————

the very small lot began their journey into the 'dark' and 'scary' forest, OJ and Mephone fighting for leader. Eventually, they just both led, neither content with that answer but they didn't have the time to fight over it. the sun was setting, and looking with flashlights is frustrating and takes too long."Alright. So, we are looking any hints of where someone could've gone..or some sort of evidence that something happened. Anything, really. we'll get to the bottom of this. I'm sure." Oj stated proudly. Mephone glanced at him..that sentence again.. he noticed how Oj had a habit of trying to motivate others while he was losing motivation himself. Mephone tended to take notes of people. Mental ones of course. It'd be weird to have a notebook full of people's personalities and.....

we're going off track.

The forest was quiet. it always had been. Eerie yet comforting, The silence sent a different message to whomever entered. time passed. Everyone began getting frustrated, the darker it got. There were no clues. Only thing coming close to a clue was the fact box had seen small moons carved into some trees..and yet she didn't tell anyone that small detail. She didn't see it as important. she probably should've.

"It's been like two hours! Cmon! Can we just go back?"pickle shouted to oj. "No! We can't give up. I'm sure we'll find something-" oj hesitated.. looking around. He was so determined, yet had little to work with, and an even smaller patience. "Oj..it is getting dark." Candle muttered from behind mephone, placing her hand on oj's shoulder gently. "It'd be smart and safe to head back." She stated.that odd tone she had. It was like there was no emotion behind it- but there was meant to be. it was honestly annoying how gentle she sounded. "No..no. We can't give up. Not yet. I'm sure well.." he trailed off as the pack turned a corner, he stared past the trees. a small, abandoned looking house. "HAH!" Mephone blurted out, running towards it immediately. "There! That's it! I know it is! We'll get all our answers in there!" He screamed to the group as he ran towards it. The group quickly followed, tissues and goo in the back of the 'line.' (It wasn't really a line, as they were all littered around, chasing oj.)  Oj got to the door, pausing. Hesitant. Why was he so scared? It was the answer. Everyone who's dissapered could be behind here. could , that was his fear. That maybe, it wasn't the answer. What if it was empty? What if there's nothing? What if there's something so terrifying, that it wasn't what he wanted to see? The possibilities. he was afraid of what could be behind that door. The group eventually caught up, staring at OJ. "..oj? open it." Mephone muttered, his hand making its way to oj's shoulder. "Yeah, if you're so sure this is our solution, open it!" pickle said, slightly bothered to have been dragged into this. OJ twisted the knob, and gently pushed the door open.Creeeeaaaaaaaakkkkkkkk...Inside was dark, quiet. it was small, a kitchen, and a hall way in the back, two doors visible. The group slowly poured inside the house, mephone, out of curiosity, heading to the doors. "Eugh." He groaned and grabbed his nose. "It stinks over here." Candle followed, repeating the gesture calmly. "He's right. It does." She muttered. "Then this is probably our answer. And something's rotting here. I just hope it's not..."

"Everyone." Mephone finished. "Me too."

suddenly, faint cries of help were heard, from one of the doors. mephone perked up and ran towards it immediately. It was the darkest door at the end of the hall- but the stink worsened the closer he got. He didn't slow, though, he rushed to open that door. But what they found was horrifying. the putrid smell of rotting meat filled the whole house now. "oh.."

"Oh ..my ..god."
