Insanity || An Arcane Story

Survival Games

Vi awoke to find herself strapped to a roller coaster cart, the cart was moving through a dark tunnel. Then she heard Jinx's voice on the speaker shouting "Look who finally decided to join us! Welcome to the greatest and most thrilling game of your life!" Vi shouted back "Where have you taken me?!" And Jinx laughed and said on the speaker "You'll find out soon enough...." Then Vi saw a door ahead of her open up, the cart moved through it and then it came to a stop, it was completely dark until a light turned on. And Vi found Caitlyn in a cage. "CAIT!" She shouted. "Vi! You came!" Caitlyn said back. But then, Jinx walked in and said "You wanted to know where your girlfriend is? Well, here she is!" Then Vi said back "Just let her go, it's me you want right?" Jinx simply laughed in response and said "Oh Vi, Caitlyn stole you from me! That's why I captured her, it's the both of you I want! Now, you both just play nice, unless you want to end up like the other losers!" She said, referring to the dead bodies laying around. She then walked through a door and left, locking the door behind her. Soon, the clamps on Vi's arms opened and Vi was free from the cart, she got up and waked closer to Caitlyn and asked "My sister didn't hurt you right?" And Cait replied "No, she threatened me, but nothing too physical." Vi replied "Hang on, I'm gonna get you out of here." And then she saw a cell that was right next to Caitlyn's cell, the key to her door was in it. However, the bars were electric, so she couldn't touch it. She noticed a large gap in the bars though, which was big enough to stick something through to get the key. She looked at the key and said "Damn, it's to far to reach in with my hand. But then she saw that one of the dead bodies had a pitchfork, she grabbed it and sticked it in through the gap, and she was luckily able to grab the key. Then Caitlyn replied "Good, now bring it to me. The door only unlocks from my side." Suddenly, the speakers went on as Jinx said through them "She's telling the truth sis! However, she could easily take advantage of this and use the key to unlock the door to freedom in her cell!" Caitlyn turned around to see that there was a locked door in her cell that led to freedom. Jinx continued "Honestly, I won't be surprised if she does this, she is just a stupid enforcer after all!" Vi looked at Caitlyn and said "Alright, here you go." And then she reached the pitchfork further through the cell into her cell, she grabbed the key and said "You should know by now Violet, you can trust me." And then she unlocked her cell door and exited it, but as she did, an angry Jinx shouted "THAT'S NOT HOW THIS IS SUPPOSED TO GO!!" And then she activated a switch that trapped both Vi and Caitlyn in an electric cell, they were trapped. Jinx then shouted "IF YOU BOTH REALLY LOVE EACH OTHER THAT MUCH, THEN YOU CAN BOTH FRY TOGETHER!!! HAHAHAHAHAAAA!!" Caitlyn asked "What the hell do we do?!" Vi then noticed an electric box on the wall and said "That's the power source right there! If we cut the wire we can deactivate the cell." She then opened it and tried to grab the wire, but it was also electric, she couldn't simply remove it. Caitlyn then noticed the pitchfork and had an idea, she shouted "Vi, out of the way!" And then she through the pitchfork at the electric box, cutting the wire. The electricity went out on the cell bars. Jinx was angry but also impressed, she said "FINE! You win the game, guess it's only fair I let you two proceed...." Then the bars went back up as a door opened up for them. Vi and Caitlyn proceeded into the next room, they arrived in a room full of gravestones. "Ok what the fuck is this shit?" Asked Caitlyn. Vi approached the gravestones and saw familiar names on them. The names included Vander, Silco, Claggor, and Mylo. But there was another gravestone that had the name Powder on it. Vi noticed that the gravestone with her sister's former name on it was incomplete, it said "Murdered by __" The name was blank. Then Jinx spoke on the speakers again as she said "It's simple, just guess who killed Powder, this one should be easy for ya sis, we both know the reason why your sister is no longer here..." But Vi shouted back "That's not true, my sister is still in you somewhere, no matter what, you'll still be Powder." But Jinx shouted back "DON'T TEST ME VI!!! ANSWER THE FUCKING QUESTION!!!" Vi sighed and grabbed a nearby pen and wrote her name in the blank space. Caitlyn watched, and while she understood what Jinx was trying to do here, she knew that this game was just to make Vi feel guilty, when Vi finished writing her name, Jinx shouted "Correct! It was you who killed Powder! You left me, abandoned me on the streets, and I changed forever since then! All because of you, you murdered your own sister Vi! How shameful of you!! Heheheheheee."  Vi then replied "Shut up...." Jinx then replied "What was that sis? Oh... looks like I struck a nerve!!! Heheheheeee!! Anyway, go along now, you completed all the games, now it's time for us to dine..." Then, another door opened, Vi and Caitlyn looked at it. Caitlyn then said to Vi "Don't let her get to you Vi, she just wants to make you feel guitly so she'll look stronger." Vi sighed and replied "I know, let's just survive this, alright?" And Caitlyn replied "Alright...." And then, the two of them went through the door to go confront Jinx.
