"Where's the arcade?" You ask Susie, Jeremy and Cassidy. You all had been running around the Pizza Plex trying to find the 'Fazercade' but couldn't find the signs anywhere.

"I'm sure, it says on the top floor!" Cassidy says, squinting at the map he held in front of him. "Its literally gotta be on the right side of the upstairs platform"

You all decide to walk to the right once again, and there it is FazerCade. However it was closed and the barriers were down. "Ohh that's why we never found it, it's closed," susie mumbled with a disappointed tone.

"What time does it open?" You ask Gabriel.

"Doesn't say on here" he replied.

"Look Y/N, speak of the devil!" Jeremy shouted excitedly, pointing at the barriers which were rising to reveal a massive 2 story room full of arcade machines.

You could practically hear all the machine arcade sounds effects, Legend of Zelda, Balloon world, Bonnie Bites, Catch that Fetch, Freddy nom nom bits and Fun time fantasy. You could go on forever. "Come on come on come on!" Jeremy and already disappeared into the arcade. So you rushed in too, trying every arcade game you could with your coins. You had plenty saved up.

After a while of  greedily hogging every arcade machine you could you heard a small voice cry out in surprise. "Look it's Balloon world!" Cassidy shouts, loud enough for you to hear. She signals for you to come over to her. The arcade machine design shows the Fnaf 1 balloon boy floating from a red balloon. The screen lit up;

You chose one player, and noticed the game was a bit like Flappy bird. Your Balloon Boy character kept going and the high score got even higher. During playing it you noticed these glitches on the trees. And when you could you fell into one to see what would happen.

"WHAT, IS THAT?" Cassidy screeches, attracting Jeremy and Susie to watch. The background of the game turned purple and the screen went all glitchy, Sun drops face was in the corner of the screen, looking twisted and corrupted.

"Whoa, so cool!" Jeremy said.

'Is that even suppose to be part of the game?' You thought to yourself.

You had died just after that level, your high score 31,345, the highest yet apparently. "Okay okay, let's go sus out another game" You say, dragging the 3 behind with you. Each game after didn't have glitches, you all enjoyed playing against each other. The retro music from the machines overpowered the ambience of the room, making you feel tense.

"We have one coin left?!" Susie wails, holding up one small golden coin with the face of Freddy on it. You look around the room to find a machine you had never played. And there was one in the corner, Princess Quest.

"Hold up, I got a machine we could try" You quickly say, hoping they hadn't already chosen a game. Susie still held the coin in her hand and was nodding in agreement, the others followed you. The Princess Quest arcade machine was interesting to say the least. You were, well, a princess. Who needed to defeat black monsters.

"She keeps saying weird things like 'I feel strange' and 'what is this feeling?'" pointed out Cassidy.

"Probably the character script, goes well with the game though" Jeremy said, attempting to act smart for once.

It was easy at first to play the game, until the game glitched and you had to light up the candles, but however you had a purple shadow to help you lift up the other ones. It was tricky to get right. But you got there. When you completed that stage you were led to a room with a purple chest, once you clicked it the screen glitched momentarily.

"What is wrong with some of these games?" you said, concentrating on the character going towards the purple locked door which led you into a dark hallway. And in that hallway was a candle which you had to light.

"You sure you want to do that?" Said Susie, fiddling with the printed design on the machine.

You nod and light up the candle, the screen printed purple, a black figure with white eyes and a screaming purple mouth appeared on the screen in front of your character. At the bottom on the screen there was purple text but blurred and unreadable.

"What does it say, what does it say?" you shout out in frustration.

You looked up at the LED screen and saw that it was rapidly glitching.

"I feel really, scared and weak for some reason" Jeremy whispered. Susie and Cassidy both mumble "same."

You didn't feel anything.

The screen blacked out.

Exit 


"I- I feel normal now, same for you guys?" Said Jeremy. Cassidy and Susie both stumble yes's.

"Didn't you feel anything Y/N?" Asked Cassidy, curiosity in her voice.

You shake your head and stare at the LED screen.

'That didn't seem normal, huh'

"Lets go, it's getting late and we gotta go home!" you announce heading towards the arcade hall exit, trying to avoid the latest peculiar event.

You and the others thought nothing of it.

Little do you know it would be the start of something
