Dead by Daylight Specials

Another Day, Another Trial

(Please note that this was written before the game-changing perk update to Dead by Daylight)

BOOM! Dwight vaulted the shack's window, dodging a minor swing from the malicious killer inside. The terrified Dwight spots Nea repairing a generator as he's running through the hay bales around them. While the brunette is distracted, a skill-check emerges and blows up the generator. Once recovered from the blast, she darts towards the same jungle gym as Dwight.

"Dammit, Dwight!" bellowed an angry Nea. The apologetic nerd whined at his friend with puppy eyes and a cutesy frown.

SMACK! MRRRRMM!! Nea stuns Sadako with the jungle gym's pallet as Dwight fast-vaults the window.

It's just another day at the Thompson's House: Coldwind farm. Gens are popping, the corn is blinding, and the killer is struggling. Feng Min has completed the second generator only to get smacked by Sadako's symbol in the barn. While screams of pain echo through the barn, Dwight flees the scene while Sadako hunts down his Chinese friend.

So far, Yoichi and Dwight haven't been hooked by the killer, while Nea and Feng have been once. Yoichi has been emersed and undetectable by the killer all game, while Dwight has been found repeatedly but hasn't gotten hooked yet.

Probably because he keeps sandbagging his teammates each time he gets chased. Which has slowed down their progress on gens, gotten his comrades hooked, and depleted their number of pallets.

For once, Sadako doesn't seem as vulnerable as she usually is on this curse-it map. AHHHHHH!!!! Screamed the Chinese gamer as a hook impaled the upper left side of her chest. The aura of the hook glue within a reddish-orange circle that bears a thin black outlier. Inside the glow, the outline of the hook remains visible for a couple of seconds. After the ring of light faded away, the aura of Feng's hanging body remained glowing red, leaving her teammates with the difficult decision of who will risk their life to save her.

Because of the possibility that Nea could be repairing a generator, and Dwight being the cautious coward he is, Yoichi ultimately decides to show himself to rescue the dying woman.

Whoosh..! The sound of teleportation rings throughout the realm. The startled Japanese man begins using the perk: Urban Evasion to cross the map as stealthy as possible. It seems to work perfectly with the man's perk build. He has all tier 3 perks equipped; Urban Evasion, Sprint Burst, Borrowed Time, and Iron Will. This selection of abilities forms the best perk combo he currently has, after recently prestiging himself to tier 3.

Even though Yoichi is only a few inched away from his hooked companion, he remains crouch-walking towards her as the faint heartbeat in the distance grows louder. Before Yoichi could free Feng, a blue circular symbol inflicts brutal wounds on his back, releasing pained noises from his lungs. The surprise attack pumps adrenaline through the hero's veins, making him instantly unhook the female and enter a dying state after receiving another powerful blow from The Onryo.

"Ahhhhh!!!" Yoichi's screams announced his agony. Blood leaks from the crippling wound in his chest. While the hook impales his upper torso, the red aura around his body glows to reveal his location to his team.

...

Ping! Despite the fright that fills Dwight, he finishes the repair on the generator. Another ping in the distance signals that the team is now one generator away from freedom. Unfortunately, this joyous news doesn't raise everyone's spirits.
