(As I arrived in the clubroom, I started to hear screams of pain. I rushed inside, and could see Monika and Yuri standing by Sayori. Sayori’s face was contorted in pain, even though we had all stopped MC from destroying the world three times. I knew that Sayori was dating Umbris, while Yuri was dating the three-headed acid monster Sar’Hingaro. But there was something wrong with Sayori - her belly was massive, and was rapidly contracting.)

Yuri: “Natsuki! You’re finally here! Could you get some towels from the bathroom? And maybe some warm water?”

(Suddenly, everything started glitching. When the glitching stopped, Sayori’s pain just…vanished. Her belly was still massive, but it wasn’t contracting anymore.)

Natsuki: “What the hell just happened? Did Monika do something?”

Monika: “No, I didn’t touch anything. It must have been a glitch in the game.”

Sayori: (groaning) “Guys, I’m okay now. It just stopped hurting all of a sudden.”

Umbris: (entering the room) “Sayori, are you okay? I heard shouting and- what’s wrong with her belly?”

Yuri: “We don’t know. She was in a lot of pain and her stomach was contracting, but now everything’s stopped.”

Umbris: “I don’t understand. We’ve been careful…I mean, we used protection-”

Sayori: “Umbris, it’s okay. We’ll figure it out. Maybe it’s just a false alarm.”

Natsuki: “I got the towels and water. What do you need them for?”

Yuri: “We need to clean up the mess, in case Sayori’s water broke.”

Monika: “And then we need to figure out what’s going on with her belly. I don’t think it’s normal for it to be that big.”

Sayori: “I agree. We need to go to a doctor or something. I don’t want anything bad to happen to the baby.”

Umbris: “Baby?! Sayori, are you serious? You’re pregnant?”

Sayori: (nodding) “I took a test a few weeks ago. I didn’t want to tell anyone until I was sure, but I guess this is a pretty good sign.”

Natsuki: “Holy crap. Congratulations, Sayori. I can’t believe you’re going to be a mom.”

Yuri: “This is…unexpected. But wonderful. We’ll help you through this, Sayori. We’re all here for you.”

Monika: “Absolutely. We just need to figure out the logistics of getting you to a doctor and making sure you’re taking care of yourself and the baby.”

Sayori: “Thank you, everyone. I knew I could count on you guys. I’m just scared- I’ve never done anything like this before.”

Umbris: “Don’t worry, love. We’ll take care of you. All of us.”

(Suddenly, everything starts glitching back and forth. But still, Sayori’s pain never returned.)

Monika: “What is happening now?”

Natsuki: “I can’t even tell what’s real anymore!”

Yuri: “It seems like the game is trying to play with our emotions again.”

Sayori: “Guys, I’m okay. I don’t feel any pain. It’s like the game is trying to scare us.”

Umbris: “No…it’s worse. It’s like the game is trying to tear itself apart!”

Monika: “We have to do something about this. We can’t let the game destroy itself.”

Yuri: “But what can we do? We’re just characters in a video game.”

Natsuki: “Maybe we can try resetting the game again?”

Sayori: “I don’t think that’ll work. The game’s been glitching a lot recently.”

(Everything stops glitching, and we saw something unbelievable. It was a strange dragon skeleton - it had a bipedal stance, and had three claws but no sign of fingers. It was a Zekrom skeleton - but I’ve never touched a single Pokémon game at all!)

Monika: (gasping) “What the hell is that?!”

Yuri: “It’s a Z-”

Zekrom Skeleton: (glitching with every word) “Shut. Up.”

Yuri: (cowering in fear) “AAH! It…talks!”

Zekrom Skeleton: (glitching with every word) “My name is MissingNo., and I don’t know how I ended up here-”

(MissingNo.'s eyes looked directly into Monika’s eyes.)

MissingNo.: (glitching with every word) “You…you look lovely.”

(I was confused as to what MissingNo. meant by saying that Monika looked lovely.)

Natsuki: “Hey! What’s with the compliments, creep? Who are you and what do you want?”

MissingNo.: (glitching) “This game isn’t trying to tear itself apart - it was just signaling my arrival. And as to the compliments, meeting Monika is like love at first sight for me.”

(MissingNo. put his skeletal lip on Monika’s forehead - confusing me even more. Shockingly, Monika kissed MissingNo. back.)

MissingNo.: (glitching) “I love you, Monika.”

(The rest of us were stunned. None of us could believe what we were seeing.)

Umbris: “What is going on? This is all so strange…”

Sayori: “I don’t know, but we need to figure this out! We can’t just let this happen!”

Monika: (focused on MissingNo.) “MissingNo., I love you too.”

Natsuki: “We need to make sure we’re all safe. Who knows what else this game could throw at us?”

MissingNo.: (glitching) “I’m not here to harm anyone. I just want to be with Monika.”

Umbris: “You can’t just expect us to believe that. We don’t even know who or what you are, or how you got here.”

Sayori: “We need to work together to figure this out, and make sure that everything is safe.”

(The group agreed, and together we began to research and investigate MissingNo. We discovered that it was a glitch Pokémon that could be found in older Pokémon games.)

Yuri: “It makes sense now. The game’s been glitching for a while, and MissingNo. is a glitch Pokémon. But how did it end up here, in our game?”

Natsuki: “I don’t know, but we need to figure out how to get rid of it.”

Umbris: “We can try resetting the game again. Maybe that will get rid of it.”

Sayori: “Let’s try it.”

(We all agreed, and together we reset the game. When we started it up again, everything seemed normal. The glitches had stopped, and MissingNo. was nowhere to be found. But something was wrong with Monika - she was crying a lot, and her eyes were turned away from us and focused on a picture of MissingNo., who wasn’t glitching anymore.)

Umbris: “Monika, are you okay? What’s wrong?”

Monika: “I’m sorry. I just can’t stop thinking about MissingNo. Even though he was a glitch, I felt a connection to him.”

Yuri: “It’s understandable. We all had a strange experience with him. But we have to move on and focus on the present.”

Natsuki: “Yeah, Monika. You can’t just keep dwelling on the past. We have to deal with what’s in front of us.”

Sayori: “We’re all here for you, Monika. We’ll support you through this.”

(Monika looked away from us, which confused me a lot.)

Natsuki: “Monika, what’s wrong? Talk to us.”

Monika: “I’m sorry. I just can’t shake this feeling that MissingNo. is still out there, somehow. And I can’t help but wonder if he might be trying to communicate with me.”

Umbris: “Monika, we need to focus on the real world. The game glitches and everything that happened…that’s all in the game. We need to make sure that you’re okay and that everything is back to normal.”

Yuri: “Umbris is right. We all care about you, Monika. But we can’t let this game consume us.”

Sayori: “Let’s all go out and do something fun. Maybe that’ll take our minds off things.”

Natsuki: “That’s a good idea. Let’s go get some ice cream or something.”

(The group agreed, and we all left the clubroom to get some ice cream. Monika seemed a bit distant, but we all hoped that enjoying some time together would help her feel better. As we walked, we talked and laughed, trying to forget about the strange events that had occurred.)

Umbris: “Hey, how about we go to the park and play some volleyball?”

Sayori: “That sounds like fun! I haven’t played volleyball in so long.”

Natsuki: “I’m terrible at volleyball, but I’m up for it.”

Yuri: “I’ll join too. It’ll be a nice break from reading.”

Monika: (smiling) “Okay, that sounds like a great idea. Let’s do it.”

(We arrived at the park and found a volleyball net. But while we were playing, I saw that Sayori looked uncomfortable.)

Natsuki: “Hey, Sayori. Are you okay?”

Sayori: “Yeah, I’m fine. I’m just a little tired from all the drama earlier.”

Umbris: “Maybe we should take a break and rest for a bit.”

Yuri: “I agree. We don’t want to push ourselves too hard.”

Monika: “Let’s sit and relax for a bit. We can enjoy the scenery and talk about other things.”

(So we all sat and talked about our favorite hobbies, books, shows, and other things. It was nice to have a break from all the drama and just have some lighthearted fun. But while we were talking I noticed that there was a small puddle of water where Sayori stood back at the volleyball net. My eyes widened in fear as I started to realize why Sayori was feeling uncomfortable.)

Natsuki: “Sayori, are you feeling okay? Did your water break?”

Sayori: (nodding) “Yeah, it did. I didn’t want to say anything earlier, but I was worried it might happen while we were playing. I’m sorry.”

Umbris: “Don’t apologize, Sayori. We need to get you to a hospital. Now.”

Yuri: “I’ll call for an ambulance. Just hold on, Sayori.”

Sayori: “Yuri, my contractions are already too close. I need to give birth right here, right now.”

(I was shocked as to what Sayori said.)

Natsuki: “What? No way! We can’t do that here. We need to get you to a hospital.”

Monika: “But we don’t have time for that. Sayori’s already in labor. We have to help her.”

Umbris: “Okay, let’s try to stay calm and think about what we can do. We need to make sure Sayori and the baby are safe.”

Sayori: “I don’t think there’s much we can do, Umbris. The baby’s coming, and we’re not going to be able to stop it.”

Yuri: “Okay, we have to do our best to help Sayori. Natsuki, can you find some towels or something to help?”

Natsuki: “Yeah, of course.”

(I ran to find some towels from a nearby restroom. When I came back, Sayori was struggling to keep calm, and Umbris was trying to ease her pain.)

Natsuki: “Here, use these towels to make a makeshift bed for Sayori.”

Umbris: “Thank you, Natsuki. Sayori, lie down here and try to stay calm.”

Sayori: (groaning) “I’ll try, but it hurts so much…”

Monika: “Umbris, do you know what to do during labor?”

Umbris: “Yes, I know the basics. But we need to be careful. Sayori’s belly was huge earlier - there’s a chance she may have multiples or complications.”

Yuri: “Let’s all work together and make sure Sayori and the baby are safe.”

(So we all did our best to help Sayori during her labor. We used the towels to help with the delivery, and Umbris did his best to keep her calm and comfortable. It was a long and painful process, but eventually, Sayori gave birth to healthy twins - both of them were boys. One of them had Sayori's eyes, while the other had Umbris's red eyes.)

Sayori: (panting) “Oh my god, they’re beautiful…”

Umbris: “They’re perfect. We did it, love.”

Monika: “Congratulations, Sayori. You did amazing.”

Yuri: “They’re so small…we have to make sure they’re warm. What are you going to name them?”
