Y/N P.O.V

You quickly rip off the VR headset and toss it away from you, not caring if it breaks. "What the hell kind of game was that!" You shout. You are breathing heavily and no doubt have tears falling down your face as you stare over in the direction where your three friends are sitting in their own VR chairs.

Lucas is laughing as he tugs his VR headset off, sitting up in his chair. "This is so freaking cool!" he exclaims as he looks down at the VR headset. Lucas seems way too excited after being trapped inside a horror game for hours, in which he died. 

You can feel your body trembling in your chair as you wipe your face. It was only supposed to be a couple of hours of gaming, that's all they promised. But when you and Jisoo got to Mark's house you found four VR gaming sets set up in his basement.

It was supposed to be a puzzle game, you had to walk around a mansion and solve the puzzles to escape. But the boys failed to tell you that you have seven psychotic murderous boys after you the entire time.

"How is that exciting?!" Jisoo shouts as she, just like you, throws her VR headset in a random direction. "I died!" She climbs out of her chair. "Oh let's not forget how I was more or less tortured! Oh, it felt so real" Jisoo sinks to the ground, holding her hands over her chest as she tries to calm herself down.

"Of course, it felt real!" Mark laughs. "That's what these vest and those chairs are for! They are supposed to block out the entire real world and force you to be a part of the video game, it's supposed to mimic reality! This vest makes us feel the pain as if it were real life!"

Mark laughs with Lucas as he gathers and places his and Jisoo's VR set on the table. "I heard it was supposed to be this ultra-realistic game. It'll gather information on you when you put in your full name, and date of birth and it'll register it into the game to make it even more realistic by using the information they gathered of you." Lucas' eyes widen with excitement.

"Who would create such a horrifying game? We gotta find this murder mansion and then survive it within the time limit?" You ask as you grab the case the video game came in.

It was a simple case, with only a photo of the dark mansion on the cover with the title, 72 hours across it in big bold letters that looked like dripping blood. You shiver and put the case down. "I hate how it knew how I was in a mental hospital at such a young age."

"Oh don't be upset" Lucas laughs. "Everyone knows your crazy ass went into a mental hospital." He only laughs more after you punch him in the shoulder.

"Those seven men though, they were so scary," Jisoo says, wrapping her arms around herself. "As well as how realistic our characters were? it's almost like it was made just for us."

"As Mark says, it's supposed to gather data on us, so the characters we used were based on the data research! it's so cool! Imagine a fantasy game designed like that! It'd be so awesome to walk around a fantasy world."

"Maybe with fewer puzzles and death traps?" Jisoo asks, almost begging.

You roll your eyes as you gather your purse and your phone looking at the time. "Wow, We've been playing that game for seven hours," You say, noticing missed calls from your uncle. "I gotta go, my uncle wants to go out for dinner tonight." You wave to your friends.

"Let's play again next time!" Lucas says, waving to you.

"Oh, most definitely not!" You laugh as you leave Mark's home. The dark air hits you as you take in a deep breath. Even though you were stuck in that VR game for seven hours it sure felt way longer. As you walk down the street you look down at your phone as it dings, and a message appears.

Uncle:
When are you leaving Mark's home? I'd like to leave within the hour. I haven't gotten any messages from you in a while so I'm worried. Please text back as soon as possible.

You smile as you try to log into your phone, in a quick second you are distracted you manage to bump into someone. You both fall to the ground and your things scatter around. "Oh no," You say "I'm so sorry" you quickly apologize, bowing your head.

A chuckle fills your ears. "I'm alright, I'm sorry for bumping into you" the person spoke.

Looking up your eyes widen. A guy is staring at you with dark, yet soft eyes. A scar runs across his right eye but he seems to be able to use it still, he has soft pink hair and a simple jean and white t-shirt outfit. He was hot.

"Are you alright?" he asks again and you let out a small gasp realizing you've been staring.

"Yes, I'm sorry." You stutter as you begin to gather your things and standing up, he copies you soon after. "I'm Y/n, L/n Y/n" you smile, holding out your hand. "May I have your name?" you ask curiously.

This mystery boy seems familiar, you think.

The mystery boy looks down at your hand before looking up at you, something in his eyes shifts and his eyes become darker. He smiles and shakes your hand.

"I'm Park Jimin"
