Among Us Logic: The Return of Novisor/Transcript

Flashback
Veteran: Nobody has figured out what causes Novisor to show up. But if you're playing on The Skeld, there's a small chance that he's lurking about, stalking you like prey. If he catches you, he turns you into a hideous Novisor, and curses you to haunt these halls just like him.

(We fast-forward to when the lights come on.)

Player: I mean, I'm not scared of some silly ghost that's probably not even real!

Veteran: Yeah, me neither!

Novisor: You should be.

Player and Veteran: AAAAAAAAHHH!!!

(Player and Veteran try to run, but Novisor grabs them and pulls them into the wall.)

Giveaway
Player: Alright everybody, GameToons is giving away a Mr. Cheese bundle to 5 lucky winners, including a T-shirt, socks and hat! Make sure you go to NewscapePro.com for your chance to enter.

A Strange New Map
(We see security footage of the MedBay of MIRA HQ. Player is asleep in one of the beds.)

Player: Please... Just leave me alone.. Mmph...

(Player snores. The footage glitches, and Novisor appears, floating over Player. The footage fast-forwards 2 hours.)

Player: No... Stay back... Novisor...

(Novisor leaves. The footage cuts to real-time.)

Player: Novisor...

(Player wakes up.)

Player: Oh! Whoa. What a weird dream. I'm never gonna be able to go back to sleep after that.

(Player yanks the duvet away and sits up, revealing Veteran is lying next to him, also asleep. Player reacts in shock as Veteran wakes up.)

Veteran: Oh, uh, hey dude.

(Player and Veteran climb out of the bed.)

Player: Veteran! What are you doing here? What am I doing here?

Veteran: Looks like we're playing Among Us - as always. (Stretches) Ah! Well, time to do our tasks.

(Player and Veteran walk out of MedBay and start to walk towards Launchpad.)

Player: Hold on! Aren't you the least bit concerned that we woke up inside the game?

Veteran: Dude, I spend 18 hours a day playing this game. The way I see it, this just saved me a walk to my mom's computer.

Player: I'm not gonna question that, but Veteran, let me ask you this: What's the last thing that you remember?

Veteran: Hm... Well, I do remember someone standing exactly where you are right now, telling me what the last thing I remember is.

Player: Yeah, that was me, just 2 seconds ago.

Veteran: Oh! Right right right. Sorry, my memory is shot. I've taken quite a few knocks to the head. Really messed up the old noggin. I have got to stop hanging out under coconut trees so muc. I'm basically a goldfish that speaks at this point. My child psychiatrist Barbara calls them "forget-sies".

Player: Why are you seeing a child psychiatrist?

Veteran: Because they're half the price of regular ones, duh! Drinks work very similarly to Happy Meals.

Player: There's no way that's possibly true.

Veteran: Then how come every visit I get to play with a brand new toy?

Player: Oh my God, Veteran! Look. Something is very wrong here. I know it! I feel like... Like someone is watching us.

Veteran: You mean, besides all them?

(Veteran appears to be pointing towards the camera, but it turns out he is pointing at the two paintings on the wall.)

Player: Uh, Veteran? That's just a crudely drawn picture.

Veteran: You're one to talk!

Ria: Hey guys!

Player and Veteran: AAAH!

(Veteran leaps into Player’s arms, scared.)

Veteran: Oh, it's just some lady noob. Um... Uh... Sup! My name's Veteran. That boy slim for short.

Player: Hey, Ria. Sorry, but this is kind of a bad time for introductions.

Ria: I'll say! You two look like you've just seen a ghost!

Player: Wait, that's it! Novisor! He's the one who's after us! Do you remember now, Veteran?

Veteran: You mean "do I remember the unforgettable night of unspeakable horror?" Uh, nope, not really. Goldfish brain, remember? But either way, Novisor only haunts The Skeld. We should be safe here at MIRA, where it's just other humans that want to kill us.

Player: Oh. Well, that's a relief!

Ria: Wait wait wait. You guys seriously believe in Novisor? (Sniggers) Everyone knows that he's just an urban legend.

(However, as Ria is saying this, Novisor appears directly behind her.)

Player: R-R-Ria?

Ria: Hm? What is -

(Novisor pounces onto Ria. She shrieks horrifically as Novisor pulls out her visor and slices her in half off-screen, killing her.)

Player and Veteran: AAAAAAAAHHH!!!

(The lights dim, and the people in the paintings become Novisors.)

Paintings: Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us...

Player: We gotta get outta here! But... (Grunts) I can't move!

Veteran: Dude, me neither! I'm like, paralyzed with fear! That or my keyboard's broken.

Player: What do we do?!

(Novisor floats away as the lights come back on and the paintings return to normal.

Player: ...Huh? Is it over?

(Mr. Egg runs into the room.)

Mr. Egg: RIA! NOOOOO!!!! You'll pay for this!

The Meeting
(Mr. Egg reports Ria's body.)

Mr. Egg: Everyone, everyone! I know who The Impostors are!

Mr. Cheese: Alright, this better be gouda, Mr. Egg!

Mr. Egg: I'm afraid it's not all it's cracked up to be. In fact, the whole situation's gone sunny side up!

TheGentleman: Oh, heavens! Just get on with it, Mr. Egg. We don't have all day!

Mr. Egg: Ahem! I found the body of poor, lovely Ria in the southwest corridor. Player and Veteran were standing directly over it, like they were savouring the splendor of their fresh kill!

Player: That's not what happened! Guys, you have to listen to me! We're all in great danger! Novisor is on the loose! Me and Veteran are innocent!

Veteran: Speak for yourself, Player! I confess! I killed Shia-pad, or whatever her name was.

Mr. Egg: Aha! I knew it!

(Mr. Egg, Mr. Cheese and TheGentleman vote for Veteran.)

Player: Veteran! What are you doing?

Veteran: I'd rather be launched into a bottomless pit of despair than become some Novisor freak! Good luck with all that by the way, buddy.

Player: Wait! NO!

(Player skips, while Veteran votes for himself. He is ejected, and is a Crewmate.)

One by One, They All Fall...
Mr. Egg: Hm! Guess he was innocent after all. You might just be telling the truth, Player.

Player: I told you! Novisor's the real enemy here! Now we gotta end this game before it's too late!

TheGentleman: From what I've heard, this Novisor fellow won't make it that easy. We'll have to beat him at his own game!

Mr. Cheese: Guys, guys, I know what to do! If we complete our tasks quickly, then we'll win, and the game will end on its own!

(Suddenly, voices begin whispering "Novisor" over and over.)

TheGentleman: Yeah! Speaking of which, do you guys hear that?

Mr. Egg: Hear what?

(Ria, now a Novisor, grabs Mr. Egg and pulls him up into the ceiling.)

Player, TheGentleman and Mr. Cheese: AAAAAAAAHHH!!!

(The lights go out.)

TheGentleman's Fate
(TheGentleman, wearing a headlamp over his top hats, walks into Office and opens the fuse box to fix the lights.)

TheGentleman: Here it is! Finally. Oh, won't this nightmare ever end? Calm down, you old coot. You can do this. Beanie boy is counting on you!

(TheGentleman flicks on a switch. A computer on the table turns on.)

TheGentleman: Aha! Wait, did that not do it? (Notices the computer) What the Devil is this now?

(The computer shows static for a few seconds, then clears to show a misty forest. In the middle of the screen is a small clearing with a vent in the center.)

TheGentleman: Hm? Is that -

(Mr. Egg, a Novisor now, floats out of the vent and towards the screen.)

Mr. Egg: Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us...

TheGentleman: No! NO! It's not possible!

(Mr. Egg comes out of the screen, before the screen cuts to black.)

Mr. Cheese's Fate
(As we hear TheGentleman scream in the background as Mr. Egg kills him, we see Mr. Cheese in storage. He is hiding under a blanket while taping his thoughts on a video diary, sobbing.)

Mr. Cheese: (Sniffs, moans) Holy crap, guys! I am so freaking scared right now! Cheese louise! I'm losing it, baby!

(We hear a strange sound.)

Mr. Cheese: What was that?! Mr. Novisor? Mr. Novisor, was that you? Can we make a deal, please? I'll cut you into some of the Mr. Cheese merchandise sales! How's 25% sound? No? Fine, 50%? (Hyperventilates) No, guys! I'm so strong! (Bursts into tears) What's even happening right now? My name is still Mr. Cheese, right? (Moans) RIGHT?

(We now hear TheGentleman moaning indechiperably.)

Mr. Cheese: Huh?

(Mr. Cheese removes the blanket. He sees TheGentleman, standing still while facing the wall.)

Mr. Cheese: G-Gentleman? Gentleman, you're scaring me!

TheGentleman: Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us...

(The camera is knocked out of Mr. Cheese's hands. It lands on the floor, and we hear Mr. Cheese scream before TheGentleman - you guessed it, a Novisor - murders him in cold blood. Novisor dirfts in front of the camera, and glitches into Player's appearance briefly.)

Player's Fate
(Player runs into the southwest corridor where Ria was killed.)

Player: (Huffs) OK, I can still get outta this! Just gotta finish my tasks! Let's see here...

(Player opens his task list, but the game glitches and it and the task bar become empty.)

Player: Wait a minute. It's saying that I... I don't have any tasks? That's not right!

Novisor's Victims: Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us...

Player: No! NO! It's not true!

(Player runs into the Locker Room.)

Player: Don't panic... It's not what you think... It's not...

(Player hears a creaking sound and looks up. Normally the lockers are locked, but one of them now has an old wooden door and has opened slightly.)

Player: Huh?

(Player walks up to the locker and slowly opens it. TheGentleman's visorless corpse is inside.)

Player: AH!

(Player slams the locker shut, panting. The lights dim, and Novisor, along with the corrupted Ria, Mr. Egg, Mr. Cheese and TheGentleman surround Player.)

Novisor, Ria, Mr. Egg, TheGentleman and Mr. Cheese: Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us... Novisor, Novisor, we will make you one of us...

Player: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

(The credits roll, eerily silent.)
