Hyde's Strange Escapades

1: Hyde's Nightmarish Birthday

The date was February 29th. Bzzt Bzzt. A purple Samsung Galaxy S20 vibrated on a wooden table, face up. The cellular device belonged to a set of pale fingers that picked it up, and unlocked the phone by correctly typing the secret password. Those fingers were of Hyde's, a seemingly innocent lad who was often mistaken for a crazed bundle of chaotic insanity. He sighed that it was only a message from his polar opposite brother- "The hell does he want now?", he mumbled to himself. He quickly read the text message, which said:

Dearest younger sibling of mine,

I shall forward thee this ancient film that thou must watch with caution and compassion. I await thy response to this work of art.

Sincerely, the God of Destruction, Phi

"I'm not falling for this shit, he's trolling me again!", the purple-haired lad clenched his teeth of slight anger, knowing that whatever 'work of art' Phi intends on showing is bound to piss him off. When instead, Hyde was in for a real treat... It was an hour-long cringe compilation titled, 'BEST CRINGE COMPILATION EVER (1 HOUR LONG)'. He texted back:

The phoque are you up to, bruh? Why are you sending me this piece of shit?

Hyde's phone buzzed rapidly for Phi's response:

Dear apparent French-speaking male sibling whom I own of,

Please, watch it for thy suffering. I am quite anxious to hear thy awes of disgust, young one. I shall return the favor when thee hath completed the deed. Happy birthday.

Sincerely, the God of Destruction, Phi

"Fine! I'll watch it! But you better do something for ME.", Hyde complained like an average adolescent deep into hormones. Phi, who was actually in the next room, chuckled loud enough to be heard faintly by his younger twin brother. The purple-haired lad began to watch the video. It started off with a girl terribly singing to a song from the 2000's. He held his ears because it was so loud and he couldn't understand what the hell she was singing.The next, if not worse, was of a guy attempting to scream and sing. "The hell? He sounds like one of those mentally decapitated muppet things in kid's shows. NEXT!" The next video was of an individual explaining how to be a weeaboo of some sorts. Hyde was thankful the atrocious singers took a break and continued to watch the poorly explained steps of yelling the word 'kawaii' at the top of one's lungs. However, the next video was much worse. It contained a group of people spitting in a bucket at a dinner table in public. "Aw SHIT, no!", Hyde was grossed out by such antics. The next video worsened his gag-o-meter by utter randomness, followed by a woman dressed as a cow, then a dude who attempts to transform into a werewolf. Hyde had to stop for a moment to catch his breath, which then led to this text sent to Phi:

WHY are you making me watch this!? I don't even care about the return of the favor-ing shit, I want OUT.

Phi sent a message back as soon as possible:

Dear angered and cringed one,

It seems that thou hath findeth my film of choice... Rather distasteful. I shall then convert to Plan B. Look behind thee.

Sincerely, the God of Destruction, Phi

"Look behind me, wha-" Hyde was knocked out by a smirking Phi holding a pan. Our purple-haired hero had awakened to see himself strapped to a chair. "Phi, let me go dammit! It's my birthday for crying out loud (and yours too), not the DeviantArt fetishists'!! I don't wanna watch your stupid video!!!"

"No worries, younger brother. You're not the only one who gets to watch this visually self-harming abomination. You are surrounded.", Phi chuckled as he turned the lights of the basement on, revealing other bladers who Phi had lured in to watch the cringe compilation. Aiger, Valt, Shu... Even Kyle, too. "This is a birthday present for me, myself, and I; the torment of all of your suffering.", Phi's sclera became black as he lowered the gargantuan screen, then turned on the projector that displayed the continuing video. Everyone cringed and internally gagged in terror...

"AHHHHHH!", Hyde screamed as he woke up from his cat nap. Apparently, Phi kidnapping him was only a nightmare. A fluffy, orange feline jumped up on the couch beside him, questioning his antics. "Oh, it's just you, Fluffernuggets. Phew!", Hyde became rather relieved that it was only a nightmarish dream as he petted the purring kitty. His phone buzzed, and it was none other than the sabotager himself:

Dear angered and cringed one,

I've stalked thee in thy napping session, and left a present on your phone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqR018PgdUc&t=7s&ab_channel=SirCringe

Sincerely, the God of Destruction, Phi

Hyde knew exactly what the video was, and was not going to fall for it again. Not in his dreams, nor his reality:

You can have it back. I'm not gonna get scarred on my birthday.
