Danila Kashin (Ake DK) || Kashentsovs

Danya was sitting in his room at home, as usual, watching some popular TV series on the computer. Suddenly, he received a notification on his phone from an old friend he hadn't seen in a while—Ruslan.

"Darova, maybe I should come visit you? It's been a while since we've seen each other or talked."

"Come on," Danya wrote briefly but clearly, and then put the phone away.

After a while, there was a knock on the door and the bell rang. Kashin stood up and walked to the door. Rus stood there, holding a bag of something. The boys greeted each other and went into the room. They chatted until evening, sharing new experiences, watching a TV series, and doing other things. Ruslan decided to stay the night with Dani's permission, and before going to bed, he remembered he'd brought something interesting. Ruslan pulled a vial of bright blue liquid from the bag.

"Look what they have, I bought it at a flea market for a hundred, they said that if you drink it, you'll end up in your dream in real life."

Danya chuckled and said it was nonsense, and then they went to bed. Even though Kashin said it was nonsense, that night, while his friend was sleeping, he decided to drink the elixir and then went back to sleep.

A couple of hours later, Danya woke up to the sound of someone poking him with something. Opening his eyes, he saw not the ceiling of the room above him, but a huge man, a hood covering his eyes. He was white-skinned, wearing a black priest's robe, and a Satanic cross hung around his neck. A while later, Ruslan also woke up. Ruslan looked around and saw himself lying on a plate on the table, with a butter knife poking between his legs, and Danya sitting on the knife next to him, seemingly completely calm. Ruslan became nervous and began kicking, trying to push the knife away with his foot. The man above the little guys became angry and threw the knives on the table next to the plate. He got up from the table and walked into another room, muttering something discontentedly. Next to the plate were red napkins, grapes, a burning candle, and a glass of red wine. Dania and Ruslan were small in size, so everything was huge in comparison to them.
