### **History**

#### **Niki's First Day**

After *The Social Experiments*, Niki was put through an unknown amount of various *Showfall* performances, she managed to escape.

Niki fled, only to stumble upon the Lostfield set. Upon seeing the cameras and Showfall Mask in the center of town, she panicked, erratically pacing and sneaking around. Behind *Kel's* *house*, she found one of the cameras within her reach, and broke it, for reasons unknown to herself. She continued sneaking around before being spotted by Doom and Glitch, who she initially managed to avoid, until Glitch found her in the barn hayloft.

Niki swung at Glitch with her stone pickaxe, attempting to keep her away, before using an enderpearl to teleport away. After a bit of running, Glitch and Doom caught up, attempting to calm Niki down. Niki was skeptical at first, and asked them bluntly if they were with "them".

Not knowing who she was specifying, Glitch and Doom said they were not affiliated with The Phantom Syndicate or TAXIT. Niki then specified, asking if they were with Showfall. Not knowing much of the company, Glitch and Doom say no. That calmed Niki's nerves, and she let up a slight bit. Doom seemed to have remembered the name from somewhere, and ran off, leaving Glitch with Niki.

Glitch talked to Niki, answering any questions about Lostfield, though there weren't many. Doom comes back, with Shard in tow. The four discuss Showfall Media, and Glitch, Doom and Shard suggest getting Niki a place to stay for the good while. Niki requests for a change of clothes as well, since she has been unfortunately placed in the clothing from both *The Social Experiments* and her most recent Showfall performance.

#### New Home

Niki stayed on set for several days, before meeting Memphis, who had recently been staying with Carter and Sorren. Niki was suspicious of Memphis, but eventually learned that he was in a similar place as her. They talked for a while about the current circumstances, before Memphis offered Niki a place to stay, as he believed that Carter and Sorren wouldn't really mind it. Niki hesitantly agreed, and they both snuck back out and over to the town.

Memphis introduced Niki to Carter and Sorren, who immediately knew who she was. She said that she had started sneaking onto the set because she had enough of what Showfall was doing, and was determined to stop them. Carter and Sorren agreed with her beliefs, and Sorren told her that instead of going in blind, they had to gather information first and foremost.

#### A New Arrival

Niki arrived back on set, following Memphis's departure back to the set itself. She wished to gain more information and to see what she had missed since her last visit. Niki ran into Memphis, who revealed that there had been missing posters produced by Showfall Media about them. Niki reacted in shock, and asked to see them, which Memphis gave them over to look at.

They cautiously walked as they discussed the missing person's posters, along with discussing the things that Niki had missed, before they had stumbled upon a home hidden within a small ravine. Upon entering, they met a new arrival to the set, Theory. The introduction was awkward, and they eventually left him alone. Niki couldn't stick around much longer afterwards, so she handed back the posters and bid Memphis a very quick farewell, before leaving the set.

#### Phantom Hiding

Niki had stayed out of the show set for a while since her last entry, and decided to re-enter. She ran into Memphis who seemed very on edge, and quietly guided her away from certain areas of the set. Niki asked what had happened, and Memphis explained that he had been broken out of imprisonment in the Phantom Syndicate by Artemis and Sorren, and that Box and Theory may be onto his disappearance. Memphis showed Niki the basement hidden below Glitch's Farm briefly, before bringing her back up the elevator. As they exited the windmill, Theory and Box had found them, and Memphis told Niki to run. Niki ran as fast as she could and hid nearby Kel's home.

#### Shocking Reunion

Niki, after seeing that the coast is clear, ran off, and slipped into Doom's old home. She looked around in concern, before going downstairs, only to find Sneeg. She and Sneeg proceeded to talk, happy that the other was there and okay. They chatted about the happenings, and Niki proceeded to tell Sneeg about the basement. She brought Sneeg over to the windmill, only to find that the elevator was down, and that it was coming back up, with Spencer on it. They booked it, and managed to escape, with Niki getting shot in the arm beforehand.

They got out to a nearby street that the building's clearing was by, and Niki drove the two of them back to the town, despite her injury. When she returned. Sorren and Carter had been waiting for them, and Sorren handed his phone to Carter before beginning to patch up Niki's arm. Carter then handed the phone to Niki afterwards, and told her to put it on speaker.

After she put it on speaker, she greeted the person on the line. The person on the line was revealed to be Jerma, as he chewed out both Sneeg and Niki for continuously going into the set, despite the dangers they present. Sneeg and Niki were shocked to find out that he was alive, and Jerma said that he had thought that they would have been smarter than that, and that "we've been watching the show.", implying he had heard the whole conversation they had had. Sneeg asked what he had meant by "we", and another voice on the line revealed that Austin was also alive, and living with Jerma. Austin stated that he expected him and Jerma to be the two to go in, not Niki and Sneeg.

Niki conceded and said that they'd be more careful going into the set, and Jerma told her that they had better. He then said to Carter and Sorren that his words go for them too, and that he'll be watching, before hanging up.
