Chapter 1

Mark's POV

I huddled in the corner of my bed. My back against the wall, while my head is against the headboard. I'm holding onto my arms as I shake uncontrollably. But it's not because I'm cold...

I don't quite feel like myself...

I've been having strange dreams lately...

And I feel scared...

Like I'm not alone...

And I'm seeing things in the dark...

I can feel my head twitch inhumanly every so often.

I know... That my fans think that Darkiplier isn't real... God do I wish they hadn't said anything about it... But I won't blame them... They didn't know... They didn't know that He is real...

I haven't talked to anybody, or made any videos for almost 2 weeks... I did make a video exactly two weeks ago... But He showed up way more than He usually does. I think the game was called, Mr. Kitty Saves The World I didn't even think it was going to be that scary of a horror game...

~Two Weeks Ago~

"Hello everybody. My name is Markiplier. And welcome to let's play, Mr. Kitty Saves The World. Ok now, uh, I've been playing a lot of horror games recently. So I wanna take a nice step back cause they're starting to affect my dreams, I'm seeing things out of the corner of my eyes in my own apartment. So, I just wanna play a nice relaxing game where I can show you guys some real commentary in the gaming and the in sites behind the indie game world. So, lets get started." I pressed start, and the title went everywhere. "Oh no! Not again! Aghhh! Ok so obvi- What the Hell?! Ha ha. Uh... AHH! Ok, so obviously I was lying before and - What the Heelll!? What is that? Ahh! I'm getting stuck on furniture. I-jes- You're not giving me enough time man, just give me more time to jump over stuff. That's not a Mr. Kitty. That's not a kitty that I want. Ahh, preemptively jump. Wha- 21? What do those mean? I don't know. Preemptively jump! I'm going off the screen. I'm going off the screen guys. What the Hell?!" I could hear my voice starting to sound static-y. The screen turned purple.

In a static-y voice my video started again.

"Hello everybody, my name is Markiplier. And welcome to let's play."

"Help me..." I begged.

"Mr. Kitty Saves The World. Now, I've been playing a lot of horror games recently, and they're starting to affect my life...

Umm, I can see things out of the corner of my eyes. I've got nightmares. So I just wanted to take a step back and to play a nice, relaxing indie game with an old school feel to it and give you guys a taste to what real gaming commentary is all about. So lets get in-"

~Present Day~

I've been trying to avoid anything, and I'm paranoid about everything. I've never been this scared before. All I can do is shake as I try to wait it out. I just hope I don't have to wait long... And I hope no one has to see me like this...

Yami's (Aaron's) POV

I guess I was really jet lagged as I yawned making my tea. As my water was heating up, I think about what I'm gonna do today. "I know," I say aloud. "Maybe I should go to Mark's and see how he's doing. Speaking of Mark, I haven't heard anything from him for at least a week, no video, no text, nothing. Maybe I should hurry up and get ready.

~10 minutes later~

Ok, I think I'm ready. I text Wade and Bob as a joke, saying if I don't text back tonight. Go to Mark's house to save me.

I get into the rental car that I got, and made my way to his house. Half way there, Bob called me. "Hey Bob," I said cheerfully. "Hey Yami," Bob said. "I got your text... So you're going to go over to Mark's?" Bob asked. "Yep, and since I'll be in America for a while I can lay back a bit. And visit my American friends without rushing myself." I said smiling. "Yeah, that's good... Yami... Just a heads-up, Mark's acted like this before, and I had to help him... So, I'm just gonna give you a heads-up. Mark isn't like himself..." Bob trailed off. "Well, I'm at his house... So I guess I'll talk to you later." I said saying bye as I hung up. I turned the car off, and got out.

I take in a deep breath before I let it out slowly. I walk up to the door and knock.
