Something Decent 2

The doorbell rung. I opened the door, but nobody was there, just a flash drive with **EVIL PATRIXX KILL SPINGEBILL 666 666 666 IN 666D** written in marker. I didn't want to watch it because what happened with that SMB cartridge back then. The console exploded, I got the cartridge and uploaded it onto the internet.
But I was just so curious about the flash drive, so I plugged it into the USB port. There was the file, just waiting to be played. I clicked on it, a new window opened up. Spongebob appeared on the screen, but he had black holes for eyes and blood was coming out of them. He said "If it wasn't for the Christmas s\*\*\*, I wouldn't f\*\*\*\*\*\*g work." I was surprised, because I've never heard Spongebob swear before. You could now see the background, which showed Spongebob's house.
I heard a loud gunshot from the video, Spongebob was on the floor, hyper-realistic blood was pouring out from his dead body. The camera then panned to Patrick, who shot the camera and said "Hail Satan." in a voice very unlike his own. Patrick then fell over, revealing that Squidward was behind him. "That'll take care of them for a while." Squidward said in a depressed voice.
As Squidward left the pineapple, it showed all 3 of their houses. Patrick's rock was cracked, the pineapple Spongebob lived in was rotten, but Squidward's house was relatively unscathed. Squidward went inside his house. There was an unlocked padlock next to the door, and Squidward put it on the door and locked it. The video ended.

## *Abandoned Squidville*

I heard a knock at the door, so I decided to open the door. There was nobody at the door, instead there was a VHS tape on the porch. I picked up the VHS tape, and put it in the VHS player I had.

Fittingly, I heard it starting to rain outside. The sky had been cloudy all day. I pressed the play button on the VHS player, and the tape started to play.

The title for this 'episode' was called *Abandoned Squidville*.

According to the internet, the episode started with static, and eventually showed Squidward trying to watch TV, but nobody was able to watch the rest of the episode, due to the VHS tape being damaged. However, the one that I had was in perfect condition, so the episode just started with Squidward on a couch watching TV, but the screen on it was blue, with text that said 'NO SIGNAL'. Squidward sighed. "It hasn't worked for months." Squidward said.

Squidward went upstairs. "I need to check outside, in case one of those storms has appeared again." Squidward said.
Once he reached the window, it showed the outside from Squidward's point of view. The outside was foggy, but you could still see part of Bikini Bottom. It was also raining. It went back to the normal perspective. Squidward looked like he wanted to panic.

"Calm down, Squidward, the storms are made of wind, not rain." Squidward said to himself.

Squidward went downstairs, and to his kitchen. He then opened the fridge, which was empty except for a mushroom growing in the bottom corner. The mushroom looked realistic. Then the view switched over to the door. There was a shotgun hanging by a rope next to the door, and Squidward took the shotgun and left his house.

Squidward walked down the street, and the screen cut to black.
I tried fast forwarding it, but the tape was over. I decided to go to bed, because after that, I felt really tired.

## Kirby Gameplay Tape

A while back, I read something about a gameplay tape about a Kirby game that was never released. The game was similar to Super Mario Bros. but was cancelled for unknown reasons. According to what I read about it, the game was complete and was going to be released, but was cancelled.

I decided to search up "Kirby Gameplay Tape", so I could know more about it.
A found an interesting result almost immediately. Apparently the reason for it not being like the other Kirby games is that the main character isn't Kirby, instead, it's a blue version of him that's not as flexible, but more maneuverable, which means that the blue version can't inhale things, but can move faster. They can also kick and punch, but they can't fly like Kirby, instead they jump really high.

There was also a video, which was apparently the trailer for the game. I clicked on it, and the video started with the blue Kirby jumping around. A few seconds later, the blue Kirby was kicking down walls of blocks to get to the end of the level.

The trailer had music that I'm pretty sure was Guile's theme, specifically the version from Super Street Fighter II. The game itself looked like a combination of Super Mario Bros, Super Mario World, and Kirby's Dream Land.

   Then the blue Kirby went through a door, and the boss was Wario in a mech. At the time, my best friend was playing a strange version of SM64, and toads were piloting mechs similar to the one Wario was in.

I also noticed that the music had changed to something that seemed advanced, even for the SNES which it was planned to release on. After a few punches and kicks, the mech was destroyed, and Wario ran away. That was the end of the video.

In short, the video was pretty much useless in figuring out why the game was cancelled. After reading the rest of the page, I knew that the game was called Blur-by.

## *Abandoned Squidville Part 2*

I went to the front door to check for any more tapes, and I found another one labeled "Abandoned Squidville Part 2".
I picked it up and went inside so I could play the VHS tape. Once I put it in, it showed Squidward in the middle of Squidville. "There's gotta be *something* in one of these houses." Squidward said, opening a door to one of the houses. Squidward went inside the house that he opened the door to. At this part, you could hear zombie-like moaning noises. After Squidward went inside the house, he ran to the fridge. Squidward opened the fridge door, and was disappointed to find that the fridge was empty. Now, you could hear wind blowing on the tape, and thunder. Something that looked like a zombie version of Squidward, attacked him. The zombie ripped Squidward's arm off, and Squidward screamed.
Squidward shot the zombie's head off using his remaining arm to pull the trigger on his shotgun. Squidward looked at his arm. "Too bad that didn't kill me..." Squidward said. The screen then went black, but the tape wasn't over.

Squidward woke up in a chair, in Mr. Krabs' house. Mr. Krabs was standing next to Squidward. "You're still alive?" Squidward said. "Yes." Mr. Krabs said flatly. "And I know that Plankton released the virus."

"Virus!?" Squidward said.

"Yes, a virus." Mr. Krabs said. The tape ended and the screen went black. The voices of the characters were bad imitations and the characters also didn't have the personality that the original characters did. I felt weird after watching that tape. I went to bed because I'd had enough of that for one day.

## *Abandoned Squidville Finale*

You probably know how I found the tape, because of course I found it on my porch. I put it in the VHS player.

The tape started almost immediately. It showed Squidward outside the Chum Bucket. Squidward went inside, and the view switched instantly. The view was from inside the Chum Bucket, and it showed Squidward kicking the door down.

"I know you're here Plankton!" Squidward yelled, and Plankton ran out from behind a pile of crates.
"What?" Plankton asked.

"I know you did it!" Squidward said.
"Did what?"

"You released the virus."

"I made it, but I never planned to release it." Plankton said.

The view switched to a view behind Plankton.

"Then who did it!?" Squidward yelled.

"Mr. Krabs did it."

Mr. Krabs then walked up behind Squidward, and shot him in the head.
The screen then switched over to a newspaper with an article called **SQUIDWARD TENTACLES FOUND DEAD**. The camera zoomed in on the article, which read:

"Squidward Tentacles was found dead outside the Chum Bucket at 6:57 AM. He had been experiencing hallucinations for the past few months, and ended up assaulting someone, which he was arrested for. A few days later, he escaped and locked himself in his house. A couple days ago, he had murdered Spongebob and Patrick Star, believing them to be zombies. Mr. Krabs, the owner of the Krusty Krab, saw Squidward murder Sheldon J. Plankton and then himself."

It then showed Squidward dead in a pool of blood.

I shut it off.

## Blu Cartridge

I found a SNES cartridge today. The sticker was ripped off, but there was something written in marker that said "Blu". I'll update when I get a SNES.

I got a SNES, and started up the game. It started with Kirby inside a castle. The castle appeared to be crumbling. I could move Kirby now.

I moved Kirby to the right and into a door, with a crude sign that said "'*EXIT*" on it. This room had lots of breakable blocks, and where there weren't blocks, there were huge pits. Once Kirby reached the end of the room, the room went dark, and Kirby was pushed into one of the pits by a creature with glowing green eyes.

Kirby reached the bottom of the pit, and glowing green eyes started appearing everywhere on the screen, and then the screen went black.
Then, it showed the blue Kirby on flying a jet.

The jet was flying over a city, and a few buildings were on fire. After about a minute of flying in the same direction, a few helicopters with mounted guns appeared. You couldn't see who or what was piloting the helicopters, because the windows weren't transparent.

The helicopters shot lasers at the jet, but I destroyed them easily with missiles.
Seconds later, several more helicopters appeared. Then a danger icon flashing red and yellow appeared on screen, and a floating metal cube swooped past, destroying one of the helicopters. I destroyed all of the helicopters with the jet's missiles, and then a helicopter that was bigger than the others floated slowly onto the screen.

The helicopter was completely black, and had four places that probably launched missiles. Then it launched its missiles, but on the top missile launchers, it launched tiny helicopters. The music instantly changed.

Then a dialog box appeared, with the blue Kirby's face on the left of it.

"Why the hell are you doing this!?" The blue Kirby said.

Whatever was piloting the helicopter began to speak, in text form. The text that indicated them talking was a bit glitchy, so I'll make the text look a bit glitchy to fit.

The helicopter pilot was a dark figure with neon blue eyes, according to their icon.

"Yo̵u̴ wo̶n̴'̸t h̴̟̐a̵̘̲͒ve timė̵̹͎ t̶͈̊̈́͜o fi̶͓͝g̴̛͙u̷re ou̷t̸."

The helicopter started firing missiles at the jet, but I avoided most of them. When one of the missiles hit, it didn't do much damage. The helicopter did something that caused an electric beam to hit the jet, and the helicopter left.

The jet began the fall until it hit the side of a building. I'll call the blue Kirby "Blu" for now on, so Blu ejected at the last moment, and they're now inside the building. The building was crumbling, and there was a small fire in one of the corners.

Blu went down some stairs, and found a few robotic enemies. I defeated them pretty easily with a few punches. Blu tried to go down some stairs, but couldn't.

Note: I'm controlling the character I'm talking about unless it's a cutscene.

There was an elevator door nearby, so Blu pressed a button by it. I noticed the fire from the stairs quickly spreading upwards. The elevator door opened, and Blu ran inside.

Blu pressed the button the went down. The elevator rumbled and slowly started heading down. A fire appeared, and the elevator started falling. The elevator fell for about five seconds, before ending up in a basement area, which Blu left the elevator and went into. The maze-like basement area had the camera zoomed out, and there was two buttons on each side, and a blue star above a locked door.

Before I tried getting the blue star, I was curious if I could press the buttons to open the door. Blu was too slow to press both buttons in time. I collected the blue star, and text appeared, which said "You are permanently faster!". I noticed that Blu was faster, and he was a lighter shade of blue.
Blu ran past the locked door and towards the button on the left. Blu eventually reached and pressed both of the buttons, which caused a key to fall from the ceiling. Blu picked up the key and unlocked the door.

The door lead outside, where there were helicopters flying around in the background, and a lot more buildings were on fire. There were blocks that were blocking me from reaching the left, and there was a mech next to the blocks. Blu got in the mech, and the music changed. With the mech, I punched the wall of blocks, and went through.
Behind the wall of blocks there was a black tank, and the music changed to something that was probably the boss theme.

The camera zoomed out to reveal the entire area. I tried kicking and punching it, but it did nothing. Blu ran to the right until the tank was out of view, but then the caution icon appeared and the tank sped onto the screen. I jumped over it quickly.

Blu ran towards the left, and an RPG fell from the sky. I picked it up, and text appeared saying "Tank Dismantling Device". The text disappeared, and the tank appeared on screen again. The tank now had two turrets on each side. One of the turrets wasn't visible, but it was definitely there, because it started shooting red lasers at Blu.

Blu used the gun, and one of the tank's turrets fell off. The camera zoomed in, and Blu was picked up by a rope attached to a jet. A cutscene started.

"What the hell are you doing, Red!?"

"I'm saving you! Now shut up!"

A loading screen appeared, with the jet flying around.

Soon, the level loaded. a rope dropped down, and Blu slid off of it. He was the normal shade of blue now, but he was still faster. The level was a city, without any people. After walking for about 2 minutes straight, Blu ended up finding an enemy: A robot with spider-like legs. in the cockpit was a Waddle Dee. It shot a bullet at Blu, but the bullet glitched and caused the robot to explode. the robot's sprite stayed there as if a destroyed sprite for it was supposed to be used. The Waddle Dee was somehow unharmed by the explosion, so I tried to kick them to defeat them, but they glitched and disappeared.

A save icon appeared, but it vanished after a few seconds. After a bit more walking, Blu found a door at the edge of the level. The door led inside a building. Inside the building, there were crates, and cracked metal beams holding up the ceiling. I pressed the up button, and Blu looked up, and the camera started moving up. There was a figure with glowing green eyes, but it disappeared shortly after.

There was also a full moon, indicating that it was nighttime. I kept watching the moon on the screen, and in the distance, I saw three black helicopters fly to the left of the screen and vanish.

I stopped holding down the up button, and the camera went back to Blu. There was now a pair of glowing green eyes at the far left. At this point, you could hear realistic sounds of metal being bent.

There was a trail of blood leading to the right, which I followed as Blu.
Blu took out a radio from somewhere.

"What is it now?" Red asked through the radio.

"I found a trail of blood."

"Where does it lead?"

"I don't know."

"Then find where it leads, damn it!"

"Alright."

Blu put the radio back wherever he put it, and took out a flashlight so he could see in the dark. I walked into the darkness, following the blood trail. Text appeared reading

"'*TIP: Blu is scared of the dark. Stay under lights to stay safe, no matter if the light is flickering or not.*"

Blu kept walking and found a flickering light hanging from the ceiling. Then, a bar in the top left corner filled up until it was entirely orange. Then I continued walking through the dark, following the blood trail and periodically checking behind me.
I'm already liking this game.
Blu continued until I noticed blood dripping from the ceiling. I looked up, shining the flashlight up.

The blood was dripping from a horizontal metal beam, which had what I think was a body on it. The blood from the body was dripping onto another metal beam, and then onto the floor. I couldn't directly see what the body looked like, but it looked like a toad from SMB, because of the outline.

Blu stopped looking up when I unpressed the button, and I continued walking through what I think is a warehouse. Ominous piano music started playing, which seemed way too advanced for the SNES. It was ACTUAL piano notes, which sounded like something from Layers of Fear.

The blood trail continued. I was actually a bit scared at this point. Once I reached another light, there was a door. The light itself was hanging by a thread, but it wasn't flickering like the other one.

The trail of blood seemed to lead through the door. I waited for the orange bar to fill up completely before going inside. Once the meter was full, Blu went inside. The room was illuminated only by the light outside. Because the room was dark, the only notable things in the room were a light switch, red glowing eyes, and something that looked like shoes, that might've been part of a body.

Blu switched on the light, and jumped back in surprise. There was a pile of Toad bodies. Blu seemed slightly scared, as his sprite changed to one with a shocked expression, and he was slightly faster than normal. Once Blu had reached the end of the room, a roar could be heard off-screen.
Blu sprinted to a hole in the wall, and waited for the creature to pass. Soon, it was finally on the screen and I could get a good look at it.
It was a giant, human-like beast, bigger than the corpse pile. Its open ribcage showed its non-human organs, and a spiky tongue protruding from it's chest, thrashing around with anger. So angry, so hateful, seething in rage.

But, its most threatening feature had to be its eyes. Shiny red eyes that looked through me, almost giving me a panic attack. But after a minute, the creature had left the room through a door behind the pile of bodies. Blu waited for any indication of the creature being gone, and he got one: a door being utterly destroyed off-screen, the sound of splinters blasting out of the TV's speakers.

Then, I got a notification on my phone. I looked at my phone, and saw that my best friend had sent me an image, along with: "I saw your blog, so I decided to send this image."
The image seemed to be Red when he's invincible.

I got out of the hiding place, and went through the door that the creature went through. The door was behind the body pile, but it wasn't a problem, because the creature had reduced the pile to bits.
I understand why this game was cancelled. It's terrifying, but still pretty fun.
Once Blu entered the door, it changed to some sort of hotel area, and the blood trail was gone. The music was actually from Layers of Fear now. The green wallpaper in this room, which was a hotel, had holes in it and many parts were ripped. This area was dim, but clearly visible.

After about a minute of walking, Blu picked up a shotgun off of the ground and continued walking to the right. Near the end of the hallway, there was a Toad sitting down next to the background wall, and when I approached them, a cutscene started.

"Are you okay?" Blu asked.

"No."

"Why not?"

"I'm infected."

The Toad's skin turned green and the Toad got up. Then, the Toad grew claws and Blu started to run back to the left. Instead of the usual boss music, an unnerving chase theme started playing.
At this part, pipes in the floor and the ceiling started breaking, so you had to jump over them or sneak under them, or the gas from the pipe would damage you.
You could also hear rain sounds at this point, which surprisingly, weren't realistic.
Blu shot at the Toad, blasting one of their clawed arms off.
Once Blu reached the end of the hallway, Blu tried to shoot the Toad again, but only managed to shoot the ceiling.

    The part of the ceiling which was shot collapsed, crushing the Toad. Blu continued to the right to the next room. The flashlight was flickering, but that wasn't the problem, since the moon was shining through a circular window above. The problem, however, was that the moon was **red**. In the corner, a Toad was seemingly scribbling something on a paper, on the table. Blu tried to go past him, but the roar sounded again. Blu hid under the table, before the same creature entered the room. Even though it was just a sprite, it was hyper-realistic, but even with a normal sprite, it would look just as scary. It ran at the Toad, and stabbed him with its tongue. Blu was forced to watch as the Toad was cut in half and subsequently infected. Bony blades sprouted from his hands, and he crawled to the left. The strange creature, which I'm simply going to call "Ghoul", followed the infected Toad off the screen to the right. Blu then came out from under the table once they left.

The next room was more the warehouse area at the beginning, but there were no openings in the ceiling, and there were pipes on the walls. The room was stocked with weapons.

Blu walked through the hallway, nervously staring at the pipes. Once Blu reached the next room, the game saved.

I need some sleep.

## What happened at night

I woke up at about 5:00 in the morning because I heard something fall over. I opened the blinds and looked out the window.

It was really foggy. I went to the living room to find out what the sound was, and saw a table flipped over and the dining room destroyed. The window at the back of the room was broken, with the curtains flowing in the wind. I got a glimpse of red eyes, and some sort of tendril laying on the windowsill, before they ran off into the night, with the smell of copper and rotting flesh hanging in the wind.

## Blu Cartridge Part 2 (5:23 AM)

I feel weird, but I'm fully rested somehow. I turned on the SNES, and the game immediately started right where I left off.

    Behind Blu, there was a figure with green eyes. A mouth on it appeared, and it looked like Kirby's. Then the figure smiled, and disappeared. Blu stocked up on his ammo, and went into the next room. The room was quite large, almost with the appearance of some sort of arena. Before Blu opened the door to the next room, a creature jumped down. You know [1]The Hunter from Dead Space? It looked a lot like that. It must've been the infected Toad from earlier, the one cut in half. It emitted a roar that shook the screen, and the first boss battle started.

Like the boss battle with the tank, the screen zoomed out. A remix of the chase theme started to play.

The Toad had grown back their legs, and had curved talons instead of hands. The Toad charged at Blu, and while I avoided the Toad's attacks, Blu started talking to Red on the radio, but someone else answered.

"Who is this?" Blu said.
Of course, the thing that answered had glitchy dialogue.
"H̷̛̞̰̱̳̿͊̉̍͆̀̆̑̒̋͌͠e̸llȯ̶̯̃."

"What am I dealing with?!"

"Dở̴̺̄͘ ỵ̵͉̞̐͌̍̔̉͘ở̴̺̄͘u li̴̪̋͐͒̈̈́ke i̴̪̋͐͒̈̈́t̵̲̍͌̇̚?̷̹̪͇͈͈̬̟̖̙̎̍̓̈́͛͋̓̾̈́̈́͘͘ͅ"

"No." Blu said while jumping over the Toad again.

"W̸̘̓͒͛̐̋̓͘͘h̴̨̨̫̝̬̪̬̪̠́̾̍̔̄͆͂͜a̶̧̨̮͎͖͉̜̞̎̔̿͐̈͋́̽͐̂͂̕t̵̯̘̱̮̳̭͇͆̾̀̌̽̇̋̓ ̵̰́̀a ̵̰́̀s̵̾͜h̷̼̣̍ame̸.

"Can you at least tell me what this thing is?!"

"Ȉ̸͚̺'̵͙̘͎̩̃̐̔ṁ̸̼̠̎͠ͅ ̴̝̪̗̭̿͛̓ą̷͇̬̹̈́͊̓̿f̸̡̻̺̄̔̀̏r̴̥̃͠ȁ̷̘͝i̷̖̙͖͠d̸̟͈̓ N̶̻̦̱͇̠̺͍̰̝̹͙̗̥̳̈́̉͘Ȍ̴̧̜͈͍̤̗̘͈͓̯̰̺̦͙͋̚T̵͙̳̬̪̪̤̠̃̊͗͆͘͝ͅ."

The boss battle continued with no extra dialog. Blu shot at the Toad. Blood came out, but the Toad didn't seem to be damaged. Then, some dialogue appeared.

"You got a problem with death or something?"

"GROARR!"

The ceiling started to collapse from the left, so Blu went into a hallway on the right, and the Toad followed.
As Blu ran through the hallway, the Toad grew more talons from its chest, and some of the talons got launched at Blu, but he dodged them quickly. I noticed that there were cannon-like objects in the ceiling, and they started firing spheres of energy.

Fortunately, the objects weren't in every part of the ceiling. I pressed the SELECT button, and a map appeared. According to the map, the objective was in the middle of the hallway, which was really long.

    Once I reached the objective, there was a ray gun with a scope.

Blu picked it up, and ran further to the right until he reached the end of the hallway. Blu went inside the room at the end of the hallway, and a dialog box with Blu's face appeared.

"I know exactly what to do now."

The screen went black, and a level at a hospital started playing. It had a green Kirby on a hospital bed. They got up, and opened the door, which opened into a hallway.

The hallway looked normal, except for a crack in the ceiling with purple liquid dripping out from it, staining the floor.

I heard loud choking noises from the left, and I had the option to hide. The green Kirby hid, and the creature appeared. Its monochrome skin was almost translucent, revealing purple blood vessels. A clawed gauntlet was chained and nailed to its right arm, along with a blade strapped to the gauntlet itself. Its face, however, wasn't human at all, unlike its body. Jagged teeth were pointing out of a giant hole on its face, which was obviously a mouth.

The creature stayed there for a few more seconds, and then walked away. Then a pink figure with green eyes appeared, and I got a notification on my phone.

I checked my phone, and what I saw was a bit creepy. Someone had sent me an image of a creepy-looking version of Kirby, and they had green glowing eyes.

Anyway, the image was definitely what was outside the room that the green Kirby was hiding in. The figure was still there. The light outside the room flickered and stopped working entirely. At this point, the figure was still there, as their eyes, and even their smile was glowing from outside the window.
Then the camera's view changed. A nail shot from the door's window, just barely missing the green Kirby.

The camera's view went back to where it was, and the figure was gone. I left the room and went back into the hallway. *Most* of the lights were still working. The green Kirby went into a room on the right.

This room had multiple medical instruments, but nothing else. Text appeared on the bottom left, which read "New objective: find an exit".

There was a door on the right, which the green Kirby went through. The next room was another hallway, and the only thing that was remarkable was a Toad's body. Instead of being ripped apart like the bodies usually were, there were just bullet holes on the body, and even the floor. There was an option to search the floor around the body.

I did so, and only collected a single bullet. I had the option to equip it as a weapon, so I did, and the green Kirby had their hand out, and was holding the bullet, which was only two pixels.

I continued through the hallway, and went through a door, which wasn't on the right this time.
This room looked more industrial than the other rooms. The weird part about the room was that there were (At least, what I assumed to be) failed experiments chained to the wall. On the floor were shotgun shells, and a shotgun (Naturally, the green Kirby picked them up). Once the green Kirby was near the end of the room, an explosion was heard, and the exit on the right side of the room was covered in rubble. The green Kirby went to the other side of the room, and the same creature fell down from a hole on the left. Instead of a void inside its mouth, there was a large eye. The creature ran towards the green Kirby, but was instantly killed by a shot to the head. A ladder fell down from the hole, and the green Kirby climbed up onto it. Then, they walked across a long catwalk, and soon the moon was visible. However, the moon was now a giant bloodshot eye.

It then cut to Blu, who must've been nearby. They were in an area similar to the hospital. This room was completely gray, and there was a slope on the right.
The green Kirby crashed through the wall on the left and into the room with the slope.

Then, they stumbled and bumped into Blu, knocking both of them down the slope.
As they fell down the slope, the screen kept getting dark, and white text kept flashing on the screen, which read: "Wake up!".

The save icon appeared as the screen turned completely black.

Then the screen showed the green Kirby back in the hospital, with Blu shaking them.

"Wake up, Gwen!" Blu said.

"Okay!" Gwen said.

"Can you stand?" Blu asked.

"Well, I haven't stood up yet."

Blu then pulled the green Kirby, who was apparently called Gwen, out of bed.

Gwen stumbled, and then stood up. The cutscene ended.

Blu was now holding Gwen's hand, and text appeared, saying "New objective: Take Gwen outside". Blu and Gwen went out of the room, and onto a windowed hallway. Out the window, there was a wrecked jet in the parking lot.

The both of them walked across the hallway and down a set of stairs. The screen faded to black, and then it showed Blu, Red, and Gwen next to the jet wreck. A cutscene started.

Blu stared at the screen with a disappointed expression, and then he looked back at Red and facepalmed.

"Not this again..." Blu said.

"Well, when you told me you were in the hospital after killing that thing, I came as fast as I could." Red said.

"Then don't blow up the jet next time."

"Fine."

"What now?"

"I have something to show you."

The cutscene ended.

The screen was black, and I waited for something to appear, but nothing did. I heard a knock at the door, so I got up, and answered it. As usual, there was nobody there, but there was a VHS tape, and a disc. I picked up both, and I went back inside, closing the door behind myself. I laid the CD on the table, before looking at what was written on the VHS.

## Krab VHS Tape

"OT MTCD" was written on it. Whatever that means. I put it in the VHS player, and it started immediately. It started with a black screen, and ominous piano music was playing in the background. Then, it showed what happened in the last tape I viewed, but from Mr Krabs' perspective. It showed Mr Krabs shooting Squidward in the head, and then Plankton.

"He was already infected," A bad imitation of Mr Krabs said. "there was nothing else I could do."

Red text appeared on screen, which read "DAY 7, 4:54 AM".

It showed Mr Krabs asleep in his house, before a loud crashing noise played. "What now?" The Mr Krabs imitation whispered to himself. Mr Krabs got out of bed, and walked down the stairs. Suddenly, I heard a demonic-sounding voice from the TV, and on the TV, there was a fish with ripped clothes and hyper-realistic glowing red eyes in Mr Krabs' house. Mr Krabs shot them in the head, and they fell over, dead. Mr Krabs walked into the kitchen, and took out a cardboard box.

He opened it, and a few flies flew out. Without saying a word, Mr Krabs left his house, and walked down the road that leads to the Krusty Krab. On the TV, it began to rain. Mr Krabs ran until they reached the Krusty Krab. Whatever it was, it might've been related to the 'storms' mentioned in *Abandoned Squidville*. The Krusty Krab was dilapidated, and abandoned, with all of the windows, and the front door boarded up. Mr Krabs crawled under the boards covering the front door, and the camera's view switched to a view from inside.

The inside looked even worse than the outside. There were multiple dead bodies of fish, which looked like they were shot. There was also blood smeared on the walls. When the camera zoomed in on Mr Krabs' face, it looked hyper-realistic.

The camera's view switched to one that was behind Mr Krabs, and then he went into the kitchen. Red text appeared again, this time saying "DAY 7, 4:59 AM". Once again, the camera's view changed to show Mr Krabs looking at the stove, which had a few yellow stains on it. Mr Krabs took out a long piece of cloth, and set it on the floor. Then, he laid down on it.

Blue text appeared, reading "2:13 PM". Mr Krabs got up, and looked around the kitchen. As you know, the voice of Mr Krabs on these strange VHS tapes are an imitation, so just view it as such. "Good, it's in the afternoon, which means it should be safer." Mr Krabs said.

Then, the tape ended. Damn it.

## Blu Cartridge Part 3

I'm writing this for the second time. Actually, I'm not. What I use to edit, it crashed, so let me give you a summary:

The map of the game looked like SMW, and the level I played was a recolor of the second level of Kirby's Dream Land. I collected some equippable things in the level, and I met a shopkeeper (He's a prick), who is the same species of those green-eyed shadows.

Here's some images of my experience:

The shopkeeper.The area I started in.The second area, which had no gravity.The fourth area, right after the shopkeeper's room.A cat-eared headband for Red.Blu's equipped item.

I forgot to take a screenshot of Gwen's item, but that doesn't matter. What did matter, was after I played the last level, another level immediately started. In this level, everything was foggy, and it seemed to be in an abandoned town. This area had a dark blue color palette, and it was also raining. Most intriguing of all, was that my character was different.
I usually either use "Blu" or "I" to refer to the character I'm playing as. Guess I'll choose the latter.

I walked through the town, hopping over piles of papers and other trash. There was something so familiar about all of this. I continued walking to the right, until a pile of rubble blocked my character from going further. I found a building with a door that wasn't boarded up, and went inside. In the building, there was wrecked furniture and trash strewn everywhere, but there was also a pistol on an unscathed table, illuminated by the moonlight. I approached it, and picked it up. Text appeared, simply reading "protect yourself" several times. The screen glitched, and the moonlight turned green. I opened the item equip menu I unlocked in the last level, and noticed a new option, which was "Character Info". I opened the character info page of the character I was playing as currently.

It simply read:

> ***Who am I? What am I? Who are you? I can't feel anything. I miss you.***
>
>

Another thing I noticed was that this character's name was oddly, "QCTBTUUTC BTXI", and there was an equipped item, simply called "Pain". That was stupid, so I unequipped it. But as soon as I did, my character lost 50% out of their 100 health, making the screen turn a bloody red color for a moment, so I reequipped it.

I exited the menu, and decided to go up the stairs. In this room, there was almost nothing notable, except for a desk and a branch with dark red cherry-like fruits on the end sticking through the window. Text appeared, reading "*I guess I could take a few of those...*". I walked over to the branch, and picked it up. My character put the fruit to their mouth, but it ended up bursting on contact.

The color of their eyes and mouth changed once this happened. I don't know whether it was the fruit that did it, or something else. I didn't question it, I just continued by climbing onto the branch, and walking around the trunk of the tree it belonged to. As I did this, I heard a droning noise.

When I hopped onto a nearby building next to the second branch, there was blood dripping from the ceiling. Blood too realistic for a game like this...

While my character slowly walked through the hallway, I saw that there was blood splattered and smeared everywhere. I continued through the hallway, but I noticed my character getting slower and slower, until they came to a complete stop at the end.

Text appeared, reading "𝙿𝚁𝙾𝚃𝙴𝙲𝚃 𝚈𝙾𝚄𝚁𝚂𝙴𝙻𝙵".

I picked up a machete from the floor, and continued through the hallway. After slicing through some crates with ease, I continued into a large room with 3 pillars. Multiple scratches were across the room. A pair of eyes appeared behind me, and a creature charged out. Whatever the thing was, it was giant. One of its arms was rendered entirely obsolete, and the other was a giant mass of burnt flesh. Unlike the other Infected I've seen so far, it didn't seem to have a set form. I slashed it over and over again, and its head came clean off. However, it grew it back along with another one. Both of them roared at me, and I ran out the door.

The character I was playing as suddenly turned into a ball with a pair of wings, and flew up out of sight.
