Houdini's Hallway and other Hellscapes

Summary:

Jay: ok so I just woke up and uhm I'm not rly awake yet and maybe I'm wrong and I don't want to alarm anyone but... I think our hallway is gone

---

Heeseung: So this is probably going to sound insane but uhm… is the world outside your window also on fire?
Soobin: what?

or: Enhypen wake up one day and have to discover that their hallway has vanished. Where as Soobin wakes up and has to learn that apparently the world is now on fire (literally)

Notes:

This is a shitpost I stared writing on the train in Japan, now I'm back home and I thought why not post it. Chapters will be somewhat short and updates will be irregular. Please enjoy it nonetheless.
Oh and in case you were wondering we're in Heeseung's phone... for no reason really

Chapter 1: Houdini's Hallway

Chapter Text

Jay: ok so I just woke up and uhm I'm not rly awake yet and maybe I'm wrong and I don't want to alarm anyone but... I think our hallway is gone.

Jake: Bro it's five in the morning.

Jungwon: hu??

Sunghoon: jake why are you texting you guys are literally in the same room.

Sunoo: stfu

Jake: UPDATE: Sou jay's right... The hallway is gone

Jungwon: i think there's a gas-leak in your room.

Sunghoon: must be a shared delusion.

Jake: Guy's we're serious the hallway is gone.

Jake: Just will you go and check? Please -Jay

Jungwon: jay why aren't you just texting yourself.

Sunghoon: there's probably just one phone in their shared delusion.

Jake: Sunghoon that makes literally no sense.

Sunghoon: your mom makes no sense.

Sunoo: For fucks sake will you stop texting if i go check?

 

 

Sunoo: Ok so what do we do now?

Sunoo: Sunghoon just suggested going back to bed and hope it's back whey we wake up again.

Jake: I second that!

Jay: not sure that is a solution to the problem...

Sunoo: I hate to agree but...

Jay: it's two against two.

Sunghoon: no it's not yours isn't a solution

Jay: neither is yours.

Jungwon: alright. i am making an executive decision as a leader.

Jungwon: we're going back to bed.

Jungwon: and nobody tell niki.

Jake: He knows niki is in this groupchat right?

Jungwon: 🖕

 

Heeseung: Uhhh guys I just almost plunged into a black void trying to get water from the fridge.

Heeseung: What's going on?

Heeseung: Halp :(

Jake: OH FUCK! I totally forgot about Heeseung-hyung.

Jake: Hyung be careful the hallway is gone.

Heeseung: I noticed.

Jungwon: jake language.

Niki: I know how to say fuck you know.

Jungwon: it's about the principle.

Niki: 🙄

Niki: ouch! hyung! Jungwon hit me!

Jungwon: he hit back!

Jay: kids don't hit each other.

Heeseung: I hate to interrupt but...

Jake: Oh yeah sorry.

Jake:  But that means our plan failed.

Heeseung: You mean ignore the problem and hope it goes away?

Sunghoon: it works with the dishes.

Jay: Jungwon you have my permission to hit Sunghoon.

Jungwon: hey! i'm the leader i don't need your permission.

Jay: of course Jungwonnie I'm sorry you know I didn't mean it like that. I just wanted to ask your help.💞.

Sunghoon: yah! you better pray that hallway doesn't come back!

Jay: love you Jungwonnie

Jake: I can't believe that works every time.

Jungwon: what's that supposed to mean.

Sunoo: It means playing you is easier than playing a kid's pipe

Jay: Jungwonnie don't listen to them. they just want to tear us apart.

Heeseung: Guy's I hate to be that guy.

Heeseung: But I'm stuck in my room alone and it's honestly kind of scary...

Sunoo: We should find out how deep it is.

Sunoo: I'm going to check.

Jake: How?

Sunoo: I'm going to throw something down there duh-

Jake: haha -.-

Sunoo: If we know how heavy it is we can calculate how deep this non hallway is.

Jake: And what are you going to throw down there?

Sunoo: I dunno a 100 Won coin

Jake: How do you know how heavy a 100 won coin is?

Sunoo: I don't i'll just google it

Jay: why don't you just google "my hallway suddenly disappeared what to do"

Sunghoon: good idea imma do that

Jay: srsly?

Sunghoon: what?

Jay: 🤦‍

Sunghoon: nothing helpful mostly video game stuff

Jay: I'm shocked.

Jake: It was worth a shot.

Sunoo: It's 5.42 gramms

Jake:???

Sunoo: The hundred won coin.

Sunoo: Now we can find out how deep it is

Jay: you don’t need to know how heavy the thing is you need to know it’s air resistance. but we don't even know if the gravitational force is the same out there.

Jungwon: doesn’t there also have to be like normal earth air out there.

Sunoo: Not helpful.

Jake: We should try anyways. Unless any one has any better ideas…

Heeseung: Let ’s try it.

Sunoo: I'm going to throw it now.

Jake: Wait I'll open the door and time it too.

Sunoo: Good idea

 

Jake: I can't hear you. Can you hear me?

Sunghoon: we can see your head but we can’t hear you.

Sunghoon: can you see niki's hand?

Jake: Yeah we see it.

Heeseung: I can see both of you, but I can’t hear you either.

Sunghoon: Niki's going to count down and then Sunoo will drop the coin.

Jake: Will that work? Will we even be able to hear it if we can't hear each other.

Sunghoon: Sunoo says we should still try. I agree.

Jungwon: me too

Jake: Ok so on three?

 

Jake: Did you hear anything?

Sunghoon: negative. you?

Jay: nothing…

Heeseung: Me neither.

Sunoo: Maybe it didn’t reach the ground yet.

Jay: it’s been five minutes

Sunghoon: we probably just didn’t hear it.

Sunghoon: or maybe it really doesn’t make a sound.

Niki: or it’s still falling

Jay: Heeseung-hyung you’re okay?

Heeseung: Yeah just a little freaked out.

Jay: that makes two of us.

Jungwon: that makes seven of us

Jay: so what do we do now?

Sunoo: Should i try again?

Jake: We might as well…

 

Jake: Nope. Still nothing.

Heeseung: Same

Sunoo: Maybe if we throw something bigger.

Jake: Sunoo I admire your initiative, but I’m not sure that would fix the problem.

Sunoo: I just don’t have any other ideas

Jay: we still don’t understand how the physics out there work

Sunghoon: i’m not sure i understand how the physics in non freaky hallways work

Jay: maybe we should try to drop something with more air resistance to see if that’s the same

Sunoo: I’ll get some paper.

Heeseung: Wait let ’s try light first.

Jake: What like throw a flashlight down there?

Heeseung: No not throw it just shine it down. If we couldn ’t hear it, because the sound doesn’t work maybe we can just see the floor.

Jake: Oh, alright. You guy’s got a flashlight in your room? I don’t think we have one.

Heeseung: I can just use my phone

Jake: Don’t hyung what if it falls into the abyss.

Niki: I have a flashlight.

 

Jay: Oh

Jake: Well that was anti climatic.

Sunghoon: How deep is that?

Jake: Idk maybe half a meter.

Jungwon: it almost looks organic.

Sunoo: It looks disgusting.

Heeseung: Okay I ’m coming to you guys.

Jungwon: what? no heeseung-hyung wait!

Heeseung: Well I ’m not staying here alone guys. I can’t even hear you.

Jay: let’s at first at least check if it’s stable to step on okay?

Jay: it doesn’t look very stable…

Niki: it looks like it could swallow you.

Sunoo: Should i drop something heavy on it now?

Jay: go for it

 

Jake: Lol what was that?

Niki: my heavy-ass science textbook

Jay: 😂

Sunoo: Finally it too has contributed to science.

Jake: At least we know the floor can hold a textbook

Jungwon: i’m more interested in whether it can hold heeseung-hyung

Niki: pretty sure that thing weighs more than Heeseung-hyung

Niki: it’s almost as heavy as Sunoo-hyung

Sunoo: Careful everyone the next next thing i’ll throw out there will be a maknae.

Jake: I’m real glad you took the time to text us that epic clap-back

Sunoo: You’re welcome

Heeseung: Okay I ’m coming now.

 

Jay: jesus hyung that almost gave us a heart attack.

Heeseung: Why? Nothing happened.

Jake: Yeah but you just jumped out there!

Jake: Also why did you bring a backpack?

Heeseung: Just in case.

Jay: and why did you bring that big plushy?

Heeseung: Emotional support?

Sunoo: I can be emotional support

Jake: You’re literally texting while in the same room as Heeseung hyung…

Jake: - Jay

Sunoo: I can multi-task

Sunghoon: why are you on Jake’s phone again?

Jake: Jake’s packing some stuff. We’re coming too. -Jay

Sunghoon: so you’re bringing stuff too?

Jake: Just in case. -Jay

Sunghoon: then tell jake to bring the head-band he borrowed  from me two months ago.

Jake: I’m worried about your priorities. -Jay

Sunghoon: hey if the world is ending and we’re all going to die i might as well do it while having all my stuff

Jungwon: no one is going to die and the world is not ending.

Sunghoon: you don’t know that. also Jay we know you have jake’s phone.

Jake: Okay I told him.

 

Jake: Jake says he can’t find it.

Jake: We’re coming now. -Jay
