Recently weird stuff has been going on, I can't say they're big stuff. But still weird stuff. Like the other day when I woke up in bed back against the wall facing directly towards my wardrobe. Which was half open. And when my girlfriend called me downstairs at 2am even though she was at a hickey tournament. Its these small things that have shook me up lately. But even weirder, my friends have started to have weird stuff happen to them as well. But by far the strangest thing? We all jas the same dream. We all dreamed of a white room with a box in the middle. So we were all creeped out. Also for some weird reason one of my friends cousin started acting weird. Aggressive even. At first we thought it was rabies and he was taken to the hospital. But the doctors said he was conpletely healthy. Nothing overly terrified has happened yet. But I think I need help.

He took a sip of water and let it flow down his throat as he had done every night this November. Temperature had decreased down to a freezing point, and yet he was in shorts and a motorcycle jacket. He pulled over a balaclava from his jacket, grabbed his deset eagle, and walked in. Same old drill, get some screams, some cash, snd all the glory begore the police arrive. Easy enough.

He counted each bill he put in there an hour earlier and crashed over at a nearby warehouse overnight, with gas station noodles that tasted of cardboard, and a loaf of bread he had smuggled from the streets the night before. And yet he still heard one of the workers locking up.

This workers name was Stan, a nice guy. He was patrolling the site like a hawk until his eyes rested on a person crouched behind a pile of used containers. Same old drill. It was a kid. They got lost here all the time, and so he walked up to them and tried to be as nice as he could without sounding irritated.

The kid didn't say much other than that they were scared. Stan asked her why?

"You. You"

Stan got this a lot he crouched down to her height and explained he was safe and he understood why she was scared.

"Are you scared?"

This question took him aback. And he didn't come up with an answer. The girl looked up, grinning.

"Are you scared?"

"Are you scared?"

"Are you scared?"

Stan began to step back as her face didn't change. She moved towards him and when he saw what was in front of him he let out a scream.

No one should've heard it. Smooth as always, but someone did. Robert Edwards. A broke robber from Australia. About to experience living hell break loose.

To be continued......

Same old Tuesday, I grabbed a coffee on the way home from work and kinda just let everything pass around me. The urban streets bustling with thousands of people going every which way. My phone buzzed, and I checked the text on the group chat.

'Hi guys, I was just wondering if you wanted to start that new game that just came out! We have like 9 days off, so we may as well.'

So I sent a text back:

'Sounds good. I'll log on when I get back.'

Basically, everyone else agreed, and I felt good knowing I had time off work for over a week, and I could finally cut the caffine down to a minimum. After arriving home and collapsing into my office chair, I loaded up my PC

The next couple of days were normal, and we played non-stop for hours, bt one day, my PC just crashed. Well, technically, all of our devices crashed. So we had to re- load the game. It was fine tho and everything carried on like normal until Wednesday. The last day of break. We were grinding for hours before Sam mentioned:

'Want to meet up at my place?'

Minutes later, I arrived, and Sam tried to load up his game again before it crashed again.

This time, there was an error code.

446.89.2543

We were confused as we loaded up the game files and translated the text via google.

rUn.To.T.....

Before I finished reading, Sam slammed his laptop down and ran out of the room. I just stared around the room, trying to see the cause of alarm before Sam appeared in the doorway with a disturbing smile.

"GeT OuT NoW"

I did so, confused. The next day at work, a news report showed that Sam's body was found after 2 months of searching. My heart stopped. If Sam was dead the entire time.

Who had I been playing with?
