Game Two Contestants Please Step Forward.
“Time to rock out.” For those who don't know I'll remind ya, names Spiffy and I'm a contestant in this game. My speciality is in ranged weapons and firearms, which is why I've been given a modified pistol. Looks like a miniature hand cannon but ain’t gonna kill a damn thing, that’s not human anyway. So, this is my life now. A game after a game after a game after a game. All for the hope of a wish, I mean no one can blame me for this. If you had the chance to have whatever you wanted and all you had to do was win some games you’d run at the chance yourself. Especially if you’ve got no more to lose.
“Please open your envelopes.” Done and done, seems my team is all settled in on what they need to do, now we just gotta group up. And-
“Wait. Why- Hey wait, mine just swapped to Adversa-AH!”
Second Round
“Ugh… What the hell?” Okay… I know a gurney when I see it. A hospital, this is a new one and new is never good because that means random bull can happen. Now where do I go?158Please respect copyright.PENANAabkhDOlPXt
“Alright, finding some stuff to make a serum is weird. No clue what the point of it is but if they need what they need then I get it and I go.” Worst part of these games is the walking, the silence of it all even if my steps are like my only friend in this whole situation due to the fact of it being so damn quiet. I can hear everything but I don’t really know anything. First thing’s first though, gotta find Mich-158Please respect copyright.PENANAp6SDbDbOPQ
“OH MY GOD!!”
“Ah! Oh, Spiffy. I was just looking for you.”
“Oooo Micheal I’m going to shoot you one of these days, need you to start wearing a bell or something.” After I took several deep breaths we began to walk around and explore, I mean what else can you do during all of this. It’s like I figured, a run down dirty hospital is the place we are in and that’s just what we’ll have to deal with. Looking around the place was empty, room, after room, after room, after-158Please respect copyright.PENANAAeh64PsJwZ
“OH! Ugh!”
“Wh-What is that?”
“A doll? Ew… It looks so life-like.”
“Taxidermy?”
“What does a Taxi have to do with it?”
“It’s the form of bodily preservation through the use of oils and spices, it could’ve been-”
“Stop talking, this is freaking me out enough.” Yup. Walking away now. Not gonna-
THUNK!
Yup. Now things were about to get spicy and that’s never good.
THUNK!
“Get moving.” Micheals and I began to sprint away running from that door and down the hall looking at the rooms on our left and our right to make sure we didn’t miss anything at all. It wasn’t easy to look for stuff when you didn’t know what the hell you were looking for looks like.
CLICK!
“What now?!”
“Patient Micheals, Autophobia.”
“What?”
“The fear of being alone, so scared you won’t do enough or be enough to keep your family together. Keep your friends together.”
“Keep your head together Spiffy, I think-”
“But everyone has to face their fears somehow.”
BANG!!
“No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no!!! What even are these things?! Micheals!!!”
“Automatonophobia Ms. Spiffy, the fear of all things human like. The uncanny valley if you will.” The voice continued throughout the intercoms as he looked though and watched all his patients.
- Patient #51 Nana Roberts, Chronophobia: Fear of time.
- Patient #52 Warren Clyde, Ecophobia: Fear of the home
- Patient #53 Felix, Hemophobia: Fear of blood
- Patient #54 Adam Dystychiphobia: Fear of accidents
“In the end everyone is afraid of something, it can be because of a variety of reasons. Such as people, things, and places. Which is why, by the end of our game. All of you will leave here with a serious case of Nosocomephobia. The Fear Of Hospitals.” The Surgeon sat down examining all his cameras, Nana was currently cowering in a corner holding her head and trying not to cry. Adam was shaking in fear, unable to move. Spiffy was sprinting for her life and Warren was frozen and crying. And Felix-
“This place is odd…” Was walking through the halls.158Please respect copyright.PENANAIP64LtvdOc
“Nana? Nana hey hey shhh it’s me Felix.”
“What?? He’s covered in blood? Why the hell is he- Mmm… So I see. This must be Daniel's influence, I'll find your fear. One way or another."
