I once played a game with my friends
It was a game of will that's what we called it
We would lock one another in the basement with 5 matches to see who had the courage to last the longest
One after the other we would enter I enjoyed those times
Being young and dumb without a care in the world
Wait someone is coming........
Just my imagination I guess to be 25 I still have a very active one haha
So one night we decided to spice things up when one of my friends got a ouija board as a present from his brother
We decided we would call on spirits and play pranks with them on the neighborhood bullies
Hahaha.. remember I was young and dumb
Well we tried it and it didn't work we didn't even get a sign that anything even heard us what a huge letdown
So we decided it was time for the game of will before watching out favorite show on Cartoon Network before bed
We gathered our matc.... sorry I thought I heard something
But anyway we gathered our matches and formed a line out side the basement hall way
But something didn't feel right i.. I.. I felt more terrified than normal
We drew lots and decided that I would be the last to go but what was his name?
Hahaha it's been so long I can't even remember his name or face we'll just call him dan
Dan suggested we all go in at once today and turn our backs to one another and whoever can go the longest without light... I swear I'm hearing things
Who ever could go the longest without lighting his matches wins
We all agreed and proceed down the stairs me being cocky about it claiming I wouldn't use a single match
We entered the pitch black with the first match lit and took our places
We said our favorite chant we found in this book at the library " darkness's be one with my soul as I cast aside this mortal coil" hahaha pretty lame right
We.... did u hear that
I must be loosing my mind it's been a long time since I've had company so do forgive me
We stood in our respective places with me being in the very back
But it didn't feel the same.. the room was cold and I felt like someone was watching me
I remember me not liking this feeling and lit my second match
I was expecting a smart comment from one of my friends but nothing I called out to them but no reply
I went for the light switch but it didn't work
I thought it was just a joke hahaha
Would u believe it if it was
BUT IT WASN'T
I started to feel more and more scared by the second
This isn't funny I said with a fake grin
But I heard footsteps coming towards me they where slow and loud for some reason
I remember feeling relieved that the joke was over so I lit another match..
In font of me stood this old decrepit woman in a black dress
Her eyes where black and soulless
I was frozen in fear
Before I could even utter a word she blew out the match and grabbed me
That is all I can remember to this day
But now u have come
U HAVE COME
Come to keep me company
Nothing but my soul remains ahaha
And it's quite ironic to say the least that someone else as foolish as me and my friends decided to bring her into our worl......
She's here and this time not for me but ...
YOU
