(hi happy halloween!! sorry this is coming out so late lol)

Project Sekai had always been a fun game you enjoyed playing when you got the chance. The gameplay was immersive, the songs were catchy and the stories were always so encapsulating. Yet, most of all, the characters were so easy to like. So, once again, you found yourself playing the game in the middle of your break. The bright buttons flashed at you as you quickly pressed them, only to become brighter and brighter before the entire screen turned white. And then.. you blacked out.

Waking up, you find yourself on the floor of what looked somewhat similar to the Wonderland Sekai, except much, much darker. Everything was abandoned and broken down, and to make matters worse, a sense of dread hung in the thick, heavy air around you. What was going on?

Footsteps tapped against the broken stone path, slowly encroaching behind you. Out of the shadows, Rui stepped forward, his usual playfulness warped into an eerie, unnerving grin as he reached a hand out. “My, where did you come from?” He purred, twiddling with the scalpel in his other hand. The boy casted a quick, appraising glance at you as though you were a new toy to dissect. Beside him, Tsukasa appeared, his eyes gleaming with an almost predatory curiosity. "A new member?" He tilted his head, getting a better look at you. "You'd be a great addition to our act.."
