Chapter Text
Goddamn this game.
You had jumped into the worlds of video games before, hell, you’ve gone through a lot of shit just to seduce the unsuspecting women. But nobody was quite as impossible as Yuri, especially when Monika tweaks her crazy factor in Act Two.
And for some crazy reason, the harder it was to reach Yuri, the hotter it was. It had been enjoyable and agonizing to continue the chase, but now you had to think about what Monika would do if she caught you again.
Unsurprisingly, Monika remembered you no matter how many times you restarted and reinstalled the game, but she had never threatened to touch you without your consent. It made you really uneasy, but the desire to free Yuri was even stronger.
You wanted to bring her into your world, or at least get her out of that stupid game that Monika’s controlling. But the truth was, you could only get out of the game if Monika sent you out of the game, or if you manipulated the game’s coding. If Monika wanted to, she could keep you in there forever.
After all, she’s the first video game character you’ve met that can manipulate coding as well. The game’s creators gave her too much power, as was intended. It was dangerous; she really could rape you.
Were you to give up, and go back to the girls on Huniecam Studio? Or keep trying to liberate the sophisticated and tortured babe that rocked your world? Well, when you thought of it that way, the choice seemed obvious.
Oh god, this was going to end horribly.
You turned on your laptop after it shut down from the last attempt, and unfortunately, all the applications you were using had been closed. You pulled up the Doki Doki Literature Club game, and your current save file was completely wiped.
"Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck." You groaned dramatically before clicking New Game.
The music playing on the menu screen stopped completely, and Monika’s head suddenly moved on the menu screen, her smile turning from innocent to victorious, as if you’ve already sealed your fate. Oh no, she’s never been able to move inside the menu screen before.
Fuck, fuck, fuck! You were already having second thoughts about this, how did she become more powerful within the game? What if she got rid of Yuri before you could even meet her?! What if she skipped the game to Act Three?
No, she wouldn’t. Yuri had to be there for Monika’s plan to even work, she knew how much Yuri meant to you.
The menu screen finally disappeared and the game started with annoying-ass Sayori claiming to be your childhood friend and shit. Hell, even Natsuki was less annoying than her. You groaned even louder; all the characters in this game are assfaces.
Well, except Yuri obviously.
You sped up the game, zooming past Sayori’s dialogue all the way to the point of where Natsuki’s cupcakes enticed your inferior character counterpart to join the club.
You rolled your eyes, for the most enticing treat was obviously Yuri’s swinging badonkaroos. Not anime or cupcakes.
“Welcome to the Literature Club. It’s a pleasure meeting you.”
Holy guacamole on burnt toast, it was Yuri! Suddenly, Natsuki pushed her out of the way.
“Seriously? You brought a boy?”
Oh if only you knew Natsuki.
“Oh MC, what a lovely surprise!” Monika declared. “Welcome to the Club!”
You froze, realizing that Monika’s supposed to say it was a nice surprise. She had some ridiculous shit planned, you knew it.
Ah, yes. The Portrait of Markov.
A.K.A., some weird fucked up book that was Yuri’s only source of reading.
It was a shame that the only two books programmed into the game was that and Natsuki’s parfait manga. You smiled for the first time in an hour, thinking of all the books that you could introduce to Yuri once she’s here with you.
If that was possible, of course.
There were so many possibilities: Becky Albertalli’s books, A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo, and maybe a few classics like Of Mice and Men.
Yuri was reading the book on the floor with MC, and you so badly wanted to jump into the game and tell her about everything she’s missing in the real world.
The MC was moments away from feeding her chocolate, and you decided... fuck it!
You jumped into the computer screen to replace MC, and Yuri stared at you with absolute shock as you offered her a candy.
“We're in a game.” You deadpanned.
Yuri blinked, then gave a small smile. She allowed you to gently place the candy in her mouth. She chewed on it, deciding what to say before swallowing the candy.
“So we're the only real people here.” Yuri said.
You held back a frown, knowing that Monika had said that. Were they all alive? Or were they all autonomous personalities, like Monika said?
You heard Sayori scream upon seeing her beloved childhood friend replaced, and she ran out of the classroom to presumably hang herself. Natsuki was standing next to Monika, looking startled.
Monika was slightly surprised, her lips twitching upward in what was almost a smile.
“Oh, you've come back~” Monika purred. “I thought you would've come up with a complex plan to save Yuri, but you're even more desperate than I thought.”
You gulped, not disagreeing with her.
“Sayori will kill herself soon, and when that happens, I will finally have you.” Monika held her hands to her mouth excitedly, her legs trembling with anticipation.
“Oh fuck.” You growled to yourself angrily.
But Yuri stood up on her feet, letting her book land on the floor.
“No matter what happens, she'll find me again.” Yuri declared.
Surprised, and wondering if she did remember everything, you also got up and held Yuri’s hand. You stared at Monika defiantly.
The courageous stand was short-lived as the entire classroom started glitching before everything turned black.
The last thing you saw was Monika beaming; her bright green eyes staring at you.
