3 The beginning

Misha didn't know what he should expect from this game but he didn't think that choosing a weapon could be so hard. Where are the guns? The knives? And any other exploding things or something that makes noise? Why are there even pencils? Someone needs to explain to him what is this weird situation… after choosing three things he got an "ok" to start the game. The first assignment said "You need to hide".

He heard the sound of unlocking and he was so going to bring those creepers to their knees after this sick joke. He opened the casket a little bit to see what's happening and he saw a lot of people wearing gowns and suits for some odd reason they even got masks. This is Halloween! Misha was really not expecting that he would see opened stores and some rich people wasting their money.

He needs to hide so he got out carefully not to attract unwanted attention and thought to go upstairs. He looked up and saw some giant chandeliers so that's it, his hideout. Thankfully no one noticed him so it was somewhat weird. He didn't think much of it, rich people just see what they want so no worries. There is even music playing quietly to some creepy theme. He saw a haunted house but if you ask him he wouldn't even step inside this looks really suspicious. Who in their right minds builds a haunted house in a mall for a day or just a week? Not him for sure.

He was so proud of himself for not getting caught but then he heard some commotion and screaming. Thankfully he was already in his hideout. It's really uncomfortable just move a tiny bit of wrong motion and he's dead for sure. Misha was trying not to budge. He turned the game on an saw the price for the killings he should do. A thousand per head. Not bad, not bad he thought rubbing his chin.

"Let's get started"

He pressed the button for start and then his phone showed the whole situation in the mall he was currently in. There was a man with his back to the camera, he heard something so he looked that way. The scene was like from some horror movie, the left eye was hanging there out of its socked it was a really disgusting sight. His arms were badly bitten, some flesh missing here and there the expensive suit ruined just like his life.

"This doesn't look good"

Murmured to himself Misha.

"Should I really kill some of them? Did I miss something and am in some movie and the main point is to survive?"

His phone started ringing, this was the worst to happen in this particular moment. If the situation out there is really bad, how is he going to survive this when all of them are going to look for him because of his phone…

He heard some moaning and weird noises coming closer. He turned off he sound and saw a message from the game.

"Move, join your new team"

Misha was confused, how is he supposed to goin his team if he doesn't know about it anything! Not even the looks of his teammates. He really is lost. But he needs to fight!

"Let's just do this."

He saw some woman that was being attacked, he just stopped to look what's going on. He froze when he saw what's happening. The attacked woman was being ripped apart alive by those monsters. Misha didn't even have the time to think to help her even when he heard her begging for him to help her. She was looking him right in the eyes her gaze turning more lifeless with each second. Why did he accept the prank from his friends? Misha just couldn't understand how did he find himself in this dire situation. This whole thing happening to him right now it's just impossible he should be already done with the joke just angering some parents and scaring some poor kids but that's it. At this hour he would be with his friends laughing about the whole situation but right now he is here in the mall with some frigging zombies like in the movies.

This is just great he though to himself. He saw a man observing the whole situation with a cold faze as if this doesn't even concern him. He looked like some type of god holding a bloody baseball bat waiting for something to come. Then some girls appeared they were like thunder fast like lightning and deadly like it too. Misha was observing the man and what he was going to do. He saw him in this moment soften his gaze when looking at some white haired girl. Then he changed his behavior for a scared one and started to run in their direction as if looking for help. He didn't hear what he was saying but the man hugged the girl as if his life depended on it and didn't want to let go. He was so scared that Misha could see the trembling of his body. So is it true that when you need to hold a strong front you're not going to break down in that moment he wondered.

The picture of the woman pleading for her life was imprinted in his mind. It was his fault for freezing and phone ringing, maybe then she would be still alive and kicking.

He shook his head to discard his guilty conscience. It's not the time to feel bad about the dead of a woman he didn't know. Maybe karma caught up to her to bite her head of.

He felt a vibration coming from his phone.

"Your team is here" a picture was attached to the message. Misha wasn't really shocked to realize that those three badass girls are his team mates there is just one problem.…

Around him are many, really many undead people trying to eat him up. This is just wonderful. Ready to dye he splashed some oil after him so maybe he still has some time to survive this situation.

"Hey! You guy in the glasses! Don't you want to live? Why are you troubling us joining this wonderful club?" A gurl with curly hair said, while she was killing the monsters bravely.

"What am I supposed to do ah?! I'm new to this! I didn't expect this "game" to be nuts!"

Misha couldn't help it to be frustrated after feeling alone and in danger there was hope for survival.

"Just don't cry, alright?" Said the girl in short straight hair. She was shooting the walking corpses while the white haired girl was operating the computer.

Misha was confused if her friends are killing those things why is she tipping something in her laptop?

"Gals the next thing to do is search for the antidote"

"Roger that!"

They didn't ask questions just went to their job to win some money.

"Shortie you should join us already!" Said the curl girl. He couldn't blame her for being called shortie, he is almost a head smaller than her.

"Ruby don't be rude! It's his first mission"

The sort haired girl tried to be nice.

"Right, right I should be nice and forgiving to mister do nothing"

After hearing her I started to wonder what am I supposed to do? Kill this people?

"If you are wondering what to do, just kill them. They're going to be dead anyway after we will find the serum. Their vitals ale destroyed beyond reparation even if they come back to normal"

The white haired girl explained to him fast. The guy at her side was looking at her lovingly while killing the danger around her. She was smiling sweetly at him in thanks and eating some candy.

"Hey lil boy should I give u a gun?" Curly asked.

"That would be nice"

She looked at her hands that were holding some guns but she just smiled at me at gave me a sword. This is better than nothing.

"I can't give you my babies if I don't have enough ammunition for us both"

"Thanks"

"Found it! Shortie, you're going to go for the antidote!"
