Part 1 - No-Clipped
Friday's rush hour. Jack burst through the office door, ready to head back home. He was walking through the streets to the subway. A normal, normal day. Or so he thought. Walking back home from work, listening to banger tracks, he didn't expect what was coming...
As he walked into the subway station, he tripped. He fell down the stairs. Suddenly, he passed through the ground. Everyone surrounding Jack was shocked, seeing him just phase through the ground like that.
THUD.
Jack landed head-first onto the ground. "Ooooouch... Should've been more carefu- Huh? This isn't the subway station!" Surrounding him was mono-yellow walls, annoying buzzing lights, and wet carpets that stink. He only had his phone and his decreasing sanity with him. "Where am I?" Jack said, as he got his phone and launched Google Maps. "No signal?" he sighed. "Damnit, I don't even know where I am." He started to wander. As he was walking, he encountered a human. Wait, it's faceless! It doesn't seem to be hostile so he just passed by.
Eventually he came upon another wanderer. "Who... Who are you?" Jack said. "I'm just aother wanderer, trapped in this yellow hell for god knows how fucking long. I'm starting to go insane, every time I sleep, I see this. When I close my eyes, all I can see is this goddamn wallpaper. Fuck this shit, please tell me you got a gun so I can release myself from this torture." A grey hall suddenly manifested in front of Jack. The other wanderer gleefully cheered, "Finally! Sweet release from all that yellow!" Then he rushed into the hallway. Jack soon followed, unaware he's entering Level 1.
Part 2 - The Habitable Zone and The Tunnels
The other wanderer ran straight for 2 corridors, then went backwards back 2 corridors, took a left turn, then a right, then a left again, then a right again. "Hey, wait for me!" Jack shouted as he followed him to a room with 2 doors, one labelled A, and one labelled B. The other wanderer rushed through the door labelled B, then was met with the same room as before. This time, he rushed through the door labelled A. Jack followed as well.
They were both greeted by a tunnel, and a colony smack-dab in the middle of the road. "Where are we?" Jack said. "This is The Hub. A gateway to every level... If they are unlocked." A member from the colony explained. "Unlocked?" Jack questioned. "You'll need a Level Key to open doors. And they're very rare. We only have Level 2's." The member replied. "Is there a paradise in here? I've seen enough of that yellow wallpaper..." The other wanderer said. "Well... There IS a paradise in this hell. There's rumors of a Level 265 which is heaven but better." "How do I get there?" Jack and the other wanderer said in unison. "You need to go through Levels 2-9, walk 200 miles in Level 9 to arrive in Level 11, then take a bus and say to the driver you want to go to "The Greatest City"." The member explained. "Why not just go through Level 11's door?" Jack said. "The thing is, we don't have any of Level 11's Level Keys. Sorry about that." "Damnit." Jack and the other wanderer said in unison. "Anyway, grab this almond water 3.0 and you can start heading to Level 2. It refills every 10 minutes so it can greatly help you on your quest into paradise. We have lots of these things." They grabbed a bottle of almond water 3.0 and headed to Level 2.
Part 3 - The Pipe Dream and The Run For Their Lives
Jack and the other wanderer went through the door, and found themselves in a maintenance hallway full with pipes.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself earlier. I was so excited to get out of that yellow hell. I'm Tom. Nice to meet you." Tom said.
"I'm Jack. Nice to meet you too." Jack replied.
They went through the hallway, searching for an exit to Level 3. They encountered a Smiler. Tom stared it down and it retreated. They continue walking until suddenly they noclipped into the floor. They landed in a red hallway. Alarms were blaring loudly. And entities were coming for them. Jack looked back and shouted, "RUN!!!" They knew what to do. They ran and ran, ate a few energy bars, lost track of time, until the entities almost caught up to them. "I think... we're not gonna make it. We're so fucking doomed. The exit is nowhere in sight..." Jack sighed. Jack then tripped and fell, leaving Tom to run. Tom also tripped. "No! Jack!" Tom shouted as he fell too. The horde of entities easily ripped them to pieces.
THE END...?

Part 4 - The Feline Festival and the Snackrooms
Jack and Tom spawned in a festival.
"Thank god, we're still alive... Where are we?" Jack sighed in relief.
"Seems to be some sort of festival." Tom said.
Tom looked around. "Hey, this seems to be Level 849!"
"Level 849?" Jack said.
Tom nodded. "This is a Class Habitable level, I checked the database with my phone. We're safe here."
"First, we need to eat. I'm so hungry."
They went to a food stall. As they were paying for the food, a Catfolk bumped into them and they noclipped into the cart.
THUD.
"Owwww... That landing was not smooth." Jack said.
"And this is Level 6.1, another very safe level! There's even an exit to Level 11!"
"Level 11? YES! LEVEL 265, HERE WE COME!" Jack exclaimed.
He and Tom then rushed through the front door and entered the infinite city.
Part 5 - Journey's End
Jack and Tom were ecstatic. Their journey to paradise was soon coming to an end. They were about to enter a place better than the Frontrooms. Free food, free housing just the way you like it, it was heaven.
"Can you believe it, Tom? Our journey is ending!" Jack said. "I do NOT regret noclipping here."
"Yeah, I would never EVER want to leave this place."
"I see a bus!"
They ran over to the bus.
"Hey, driver, can we go to The Greatest City please?" Jack said.
"Alright." The driver replied.
The surroundings started to warp and twist, before becoming normal again.
They did it.
They entered paradise.
They entered, Level 265.
