Socks: POV

Socks felt something while he was asleep in the pitch-black, peaceful void. It felt like he shouldn't be in the void like people were watching him and judging his every movement, but he also felt peaceful, like he wanted to stay. Soon, in his sleep, he saw what looked like a bright but soft golden light in front of him. He didn't know what would happen if he entered the light, but his curiosity got the best of him, walking towards the golden light.
Until.
Socks had slowly woken up, from what felt like a dream and noticed he didn't have his classical astronaut helmet. He sat up and saw that everything was forest-like, with moss and vines covering nearly every pillar he saw. There were thorns on the wall and floor that pricked him and everything looked dull and lifeless. He attempted to get up but his legs imminently gave out on him as he fell to his knees. He was able to get up after multiple attempts of falling, keeping his balance by the nearest pillar which helped him so he could walk until his legs would stop failing on him.
He looked around and saw that there was nobody there, which made Socks slightly uncomfortable being alone in a forest-like place. He let go of the pillar, being able to balance, but still stumbling from time to time. He raised his voice and called for anyone. He tried to call for Blaza, Meme, TBH, Nadwe, heck even Joocie, but nobody answered his calls, making his heart sink as he thought that they were gone. Maybe left him behind, and died, but Socks wanted to know what had happened to them. What Laff had done to his friends?
He kept calling for them, for anyone, until in the corner of his eye he saw someone lying on his side. Someone who looked asleep.
Blaza. He was alive!
Socks immediately ran over to his unconscious body, not caring about his trips and stumbles. He kneeled over and started to shake Blaza violently over and over. "Blaza. Blaza wake up!" He yelled, still shaking him violently over and over until he woke up.
"W-huh? What the fuck is happening??" Blaza said, looking confused as he rubbed the back of his head. Socks felt a wave of happiness as he saw Blaza awake and alive and breathing, but Blaza was just confused as fuck, asking multiple questions. "What the fuck is happening? Why are we in a forest? Why did you shake me violently? Where is everyone???"
"I'll tell you later. We need to find Meme, TBH, and Nadwe." Socks said, interrupting Blaza's crisis, grabbing his wrist to drag him away from the spot he had been sleeping.
As they walked to find everyone in what felt like a maze, Socks couldn't help but ask Blaza, "Hey, what did you feel when you were asleep?" Blaza glanced down and Socks and replied, "Well.. all I felt was that I wanted to leave. Like I knew that the place I was sleeping was bad, so that was my initial thought when I woke up in the void, you know what I'm saying?" Socks nodded, telling Blaza his experience as they walked.
They kept looking around and saw nobody yet, their hope slightly fading away. But after about 10 minutes of walking around, they noticed someone who was in a limp position and who was also asleep. Someone short. Like the shortest one in the group.
It was Meme!
Socks and Blaza ran over to Meme's unconscious body and also shook him violently. But this time, Meme didn't wake up, his head moving around limply every time they shook him. After a few seconds of violent shakes, Meme still wasn't awake. Blaza gently pushed Socks out of the way, having an idea. With full force he slapped Meme straight in the face, making him fall over and wake up.
"AAH, WHAT THE HELL!!" Meme screamed, making the both of them know that yup, that's the Meme they know. "W-W-WHY THE FUCK DID YOU SLAP ME FULL FORCE??!!" He screamed, with a full shocked expression, "YOU WERENT WAKING UP WHEN WE SHOOK YOU," Blaza replied, also yelling, "I HAD NO CHOICE! I KNEW SLAPPING THE SHIT OUT OF YOU WOULD WAKE YOU UP!!"
"Hey hey hey!! Calm down," Socks said, breaking them up physically as they shared death glares at each other "I didn't know that after sleeping we would already attempt to kill each other." He added, sighing as he moved his arms away. Meme and Blaza had vaguely calmed down, getting up as they kept walking to find Nadwe and TBH, telling Meme what they were doing before walking.
They spent the next 20 minutes trying to find them, but no luck. They checked every nook and cranny in the abandoned place but nothing. They even checked what looked like an ancient door but it was jammed shut and they couldn't open it because of all the moss and mold grown on it.
Sadly they gave up after yet another 20 minutes of trying to kind TBH and Nadwe.
"Hey, we'll find them," Blaza said reassuringly, giving Meme and Socks a thumbs up, "And.. we could maybe take over Laff once we figure out what's going on. Three against one, it's not that difficult, right?" As soon as Blaza said that, there was a raspy female laugh, "How can you take him over if he has all of North Carolina kissing his feet at his will? He even built thousands of high-tech robots who can easily kill twigs like y'all." They immediately turned around and saw, a woman who looked to be the height of Socks. She had pastel multicolored hair, with a pink leather jacket and white pants. Her eyes seemed to be two different colors, one of blue and the other was pinkish red. Her eyes slightly widened as she looked at the three of them like she had seen them before, she asked, "Wait.. where have y'all three been?" The three of them looked at each other slightly confused. "We, kind of don't know. All we remember was waking up." Socks said, Meme nodding. The rainbow-haired woman asked one more question, "What- what year do you think it is" Socks said first, "It's.. 2021.. right??" The woman looked at them vaguely shaking her head. "It's 2023." Blaza, Socks, and Meme felt surprised. They've been asleep for 2 whole years?
Before they could think about it, the woman said, "I need to take you to my camp so me and.. Swimmer.. can see what's going on." Meme immediately asked, "Who's Swimmer?" The woman snapped her head towards Meme with a look like he had just run over her entire family and shot her dog. "Swimmer is none of your business until you meet him." She snapped, giving them a motion to follow her.
The four of them walked over to the slab elevator to where the courtroom was. The rainbow-haired woman pushed the hard-to-open door, revealing the outdoors. At first, it was bright, but Socks' eyes adjusted and saw that everything looked depressed, and burnt. It looked like plants grew sentience and took over the world, which looked and felt creepy. "Wait for it." She said, walking a few yards away, looking up. Socks, Blaza, and Meme followed the woman and looked up and saw something. An entire, large, pitch-black castle that stood on top of the courtroom, up into the many clouds above them.

What has Laff done?
