Val was bored and sick of the fact he was home alone. “When will someone show up!” he wondered. “I want to go on an Adventure or.. Something!” Looking around the house, Val couldn't find anything that would keep his attention for long enough.

He ran against the wall in his frustration, nearly knocking himself out. At this point he realised that running into the wall was possibly a really bad idea to start with. “Running into the wall was possibly a really bad idea to start with” He thought.

Suddenly a bright light bulb appeared over his head! Well, it wasn't that bright at first, as it was one of those crappy energy saving ones. He ran to him bedroom as fast as he could and jumped into his wardrobe. He looked around, in all directions were Scarves, hundreds NO! Thousands of them! He wrapped himself up in as many as he could and though he was insanely warm at this point, he returned to the room he previously occupied and jumped at the wall again!

“Someone please save me from myself” ~ sad face =[

As oddly random as it sounds, a man teleports into the room out of nowhere. And just who was this strange fellow? Why, it was Hugbees of course!

He begins to look around the room, confused as anyone would be after being teleported to a strange place, of course, he was trying to teleport himself but not here... We'll just let him talk now:

"Well this isn't where I wanted to be at all!" said Hugbees disappointed. "I was trying to go to the-" and before he could finish he saw an odd man covered in scarves. He didn't care one bit why, he just wanted to know one thing:

"Where might I find some... ICE CREAM?"

"Guys, you're both sorry excuses for sidekicks, but it looks like I don't have much of a choice as you are the only other characters in this story..

Now let's get going.. We have to keep the uh.. the Whispering Wood from being set ablaze! There isn't time for icecream or mental incapacity! Bring your weapons, elixirs, and that courage you showed me after your families were murdered by Behemoth Kings.. There's no room in my party for slackers.. I'll go on my own if I have to."

Poposaru, exits the makeshift cabin, slamming the poorly constructed door with a crash; twigs and rope flying into Val's face. The bold, impassioned Mountain Prince tears through the tall grass, out of the swamp and toward the Whispering Wood. Val and Hugbees rather alarmed, look out the gaping entrance after Poposaru, cool air stinging their faces as they both wear an uncertain grimace.

"I just realised" Val said whilst walking alongside hugbees behind Poposaru who had walked a little ahead, "Earlier when I said I wanted to go on an adventure, I meant rollercoaster.. I always mix the two up..." He adjusted his scarf that was dragging along the floor behind him before taking a swig from a large bottle of Vodka he had pulled from his pocket.

"Did you say something" asked the leading Poposaru, turning to face the two. He was taken aback by te fact Val and Hugbees had conjured Icecream from no where.

"Hmm, Mine's kidney flavour" Said an excited hugbees. Upon passing through the great gates of the whispering woods, the trio were tackled by a barrage or screams and shouts coming from the trees themselves. Smoke could be seen in the distance.

Hugbees tosses out his kidney flavored ice cream and pulled out some Ultimate Ice Cream from his pocket/inventory. He carried it around just in case of an emergency.

"Hey, you know... trees don't shout, or have weird faces... unless" Hugbees said as he crouched into a scouting position.

"What are you doing?" Val asked with a confused look as if we wasn't a nutcase himself.

"It's more interesting than just sitting there and looking, and I think it gives me a +1 to my search skill!"

And that it did! (Or so we'll tell him) when Smoke appeared from behind the trees.

"AHA! START START STAAART!!" Hugbees shouted as he pushed an imaginary start button. It was then they were teleported to a battlefield, and a voice echoed:

Hugbees and crew vs Smoke!

Yes, it was none other than the legendary ninja Smoke!

"But I thought that was just a myth..." Poposaru commented

"You're a myth!" Hugbees retorted and he tossed poor Poposaru at Smoke as his first attack.

Meanwhile back at the house...

*Kurisu awakes in a dark closet*

"W-where am I?" He thought to himself. He stumbled out of the closet, disorientated and confused.

"Ling-Ling? Clara? Toot?! ANYBODY?"

There was no answer.

"I...I don't understand. This isn't the Drawn Together house" Kurisu said, frowning. "What is this place?" Then it hit him.

"I must have lost the Drawn Together task! They did say that the loser would be banished. But...I never thought it would be me. I've lived there my whole life. I don't know how I'll manage on the outside world" Kurisu continued to blab on to the kitchen table for at least two hours. At least that's what it felt like.

"I wonder who lives in this house? There must be quite a few people. I mean, look at all these scarfs!" He said with an excited tone. "I can't wait to meet everyone! Hopefully they won't banish me, too".

*Kurisu decides to make dinner while he waits for people to return*

"What is THAT thing?" He says, looking at the oven. "Is it some sort of machine? Hmm, I better not touch"

*Kurisu continues to his destination, the bin, where he finds his dinner already prepared*

"Banana peel?! My favourite!"

Hugbees teleports in:

"You there!"

Hugbees shoots a Bolt 3 at the banana peel.

"This is no time for eating! There is a battle to be fought!"

Hugbees grabs Kurisu and teleports back to the fight scene.

*Bolt 3 misses Banana Peel and hits Kurisu directly in the eye*

"Owwww, my retina! It burns!"

Teleports to fight scene

"I don't know your name, Mr, but you really should learn how to aim!" Kurisu whails at the mysterious stranger who teleported him to the battle scene.

What, wait!? A battle scene?!

*Kurisu is grabbed by Ninja Smoke*

"Oh for god sake! This could only happen to me!"

*Ninja Smoke casts sleep on Hugbees, Poposaru and Val and drags Kurisu in to the depths of the Whispering Woods*

"HELLLLLPPPPPPP!" Kurisu whails. "I can't believe you're all sleeping at a time like this!"

Hugbees wanders through a field of flowers, while it rains underpants. As he frolics he is hit by a pair of dirty used underwear! The sheer terror of this traumatic moment awakes Hugbees from his sleep status

"AAAAH!!! BAD DREAM! ... Where is everyone? Did we win? I think we did, we won!!!"

Hugbees dances around to the victory music as he gains a level and learns the "IWIN Button" spell. However, he then hears a laughter in the distance... it's Smoke! He's still alive! After realizing he didn't win the battle, he lost his level and his new spell.

He notices the trail of dirt on the ground where Val and Poposaru and dragged Kurisu. He decides to follow them, takes two steps and decides to do something else.

Hugbees teleports, and then...

"I'd like a quarter pounder with cheese, a large chocolate milkshake, and yes I would like fries with that..."

Val stood up after pretending to be asleep, which he is immune to due to his insomnia. After briefly looking around, he notices Poposaru on the groud beside him, looking quite bored. "the smokes gone" Poposaru said, "I think he took a hostage as well."

"Anyone important?" Val asked, to which Poposaru just shuck his head side to side. Val ajusted his scarf and stood up, before giving Poposaru a hand up as well. "Might as well head back", and the two set off home, arriving moments later with more ice creme.

The two sit on the kitchen table with nothing much too do, " There's nothing much to do!" exclamed Poposaru.

"Oh!" said Val "I know a game you'll love!!!" He grabbed Poposaru by the and dragged him to his room.

Kurisu arrived a little later in the day "Hay! Thanks guys, it's so nice to know my new house mates are so considerate!!!! I can't believe you just lef~~~~~~" Thats when he noticed Val and Poposaru covered head to toe in multicoloured scarves.

"So THAT'S what the scarves are for!" Kurisu exclaimed. "A brightly coloured invisibilty cloak! It works great, I can hardly see you guys!"

"Ohmigosh" mumbles Poposaru. "We're invincible!"

"INVISIBLE!" Kurisu corrected. But then he had an idea.

"Wait, maybe you are invincible as well?"

*Kurisu softly punches Poposaru*

"Yep, you are definitely invincible. Nothing could survive that brutal attack!"

"Wow" Said Val. "I had no idea of the power of these scarves"

"Do you know how to put this to good use, Val?" asked Kurisu. Val responded with a quick "No".

"YOU NOW HAVE A CHANCE TO SLAY THE NINJA SMOKE!"
Kurisu bellows. "YOU'RE INVISIBLE AND INVINCIBLE! YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY LOSE!

"What a good idea!" said Val and Poposaru in unison. "LET'S GET MOVING!"

*Val and Poposaru set off back to the Whispering wood, with heads held high*

"Ha, what idiots!" Kurisu mocked. "Invisibility? Invincibility? Who would believe that stuff?!"

*Kurisu smirked*

"That'll show them for leaving me left for dead!"

"Heh, that idiot back there thinks we're going to go back to the whispering woods" Poposaru laughed, while ditching his scarfs. "who is he anyway? should we really be letting him into our house?"

"I doubt he could do much damage" Val responded, "a weakling like smoke was too much for him, I don't think we have anything wo worry about." Val took all but one of his scarfs off. "since my our great acting helped us ditch that guy, how about we spend the day at the amusement park!!"

"Sounds like a plan" Poposaru nodded and the two spent the day at an amusement park having lots of fun! Val got very drunk.

*Val stumbles in to the house, off his face on booze*

"WHAT?! YOU SURVIVED?!" Kurisu said, shocked.

"blahhhhh blahhhhhhhhhhh, ahhhhh blaaaaahhh"

*Kurisu had a comical o.O face*

"What Val means to say" chirps Popsaru "is we went to the theme park!"

"But what about the smoke?" Kurisu said, bemused.

*Suddenly Hugbess teleports in, burger in hand*

"You really think that these two believed your story about the scarves? You must be deluded"

*Embarrased, and slightly annoyed, Kurisu slumped off to his room*

This kind of peaceful(?) every day life could not continue much longer for the fun-loving housemates... for there was a secret they did not know.

Deep beneath the house, down tunnel after tunnel, lived something unspeakable. Something horrible lurked beneath them every day as they licked ice cream cones and played with scarves and screwed around, oblivious to the darkness that would soon take over the world. Something so sublime that just looking at it would make their simple brains explode. There was a monster in their basement and it was ready to emerge and take away all their happiness points, then indulge in the bliss of chaos as those pitiful humans writhed in pain and bowed for mercy befo--

squish

The other weird thing residing in the basement scraped the now-defeated slime monster off her shoe and whined, clearly Val was too busy playing dress up to keep weird things from crawling inside again, then again how long had it been since she had come out of the basement to address this problem, months? years?

Panda climbed up a long ladder covered in cobwebs to come up from the massive basement, which was probably bigger than the house itself and was mostly unexplored, and tried to open the door at the top to find that it was blocked. Someone must have been standing on the floorboards above it. By putting all her strength into shoving at the door she managed to knock whoever had been standing there off, came out of the hole in the floor, and was about to say something about it when she got distracted by all the scarves lying around and started crawling around the floor picking them up, totally oblivious to everything else.
For the glass of the years is brittle wherein we gaze for a span;
A little soul for a little bears up this corpse which is man.
[Hymn to Proserpine]

*Kurisu was sulking in his room, when he heard a noise from downstairs*

"That sounds like someone climbing up a long ladder covered in cobwebs coming out from a massive basement that I didn't even know we had which is probably bigger than the house itself, and tryin to open a door which is blocked!"

Then Kurisu realised something. He wasn't actually in his room, it was him standing in front of the blocked door. BOOM! The door flung open from the ground and Kurisu was knocked off his feet.

"What the---"

Kurisu stared in awe, before exclaiming "A NEW HOUSEMATE!" Kurisu screamed. "What's your name, then? I'm Kurisu. Nice to meet you."

*The new housemate seemed to be unaware of Kurisu's comment, and continued scouring the scarves on the floor*

"RUDE!" Thought Kurisu, aloud.
