Ding. My phone screen turns bright.
I was sleeping. Now I'm not. "Ughh" I groan. This is officially the worst hangover I've had. I slowly start getting up, putting my head against the headboard. My body was in a sitting position. My head pounded and ached. I look at my clock that rests on my drawer. 2:40. "Who on earth would text me at this hour?!" I say out loud.I sigh as I reach for my phone, the screen shining brightly. My eyes start adjusting to the bright screen and see a notification from my messages app. I lightly click on the notification and it takes me to the app where I see the message that awaits me.
Unknown user:here's the link you.....
After that message follows a link below. "Probably just one of the those scammers that are always fucking texting me"I say while shutting my phone. The screen turns black. I lay the phone facedown. I shuffle back to my sleep position when I hear something. Ding. "What the fuck?" I shuffle back to my sitting position and angered, I grab my phone and open it. It was the same unknown user. Almost reading my mind, the message says "Not a scammer,click it"!Maybe I was too drowsy to even think of the consequences of what would occur if u clicked on it. You're probably hoping I didn't click it. But of course, I clicked it. The screen turns dark, taking me into a website.
The first thing I see when the website loads is a creepy looking clown waving and below said the websites name. Satire. Something tells me to continue looking at this website, to look around since I had nothing else to do, being fully awake at 2:40 am.To the left of the website I find 3 separate logos. 1 is a chat logo. I click on it. I'm immediately transported to the main group chat. Horror marks my face. The group chat name? Killers all around. I throw my phone against the bed. Ding. Ding. Ding. Ding. "What have I done" I whisper to myself.
A staggered breath comes out of me. Ding. Ding. "JUST SHUT UP" I scream, hoping this was all just a horrible dream and that I would wake up. But it wasn't. I could feel it in my bone that this fear that I feel is real enough to be real. "I'll just look around this website so that after I look, I can report it to the police and show them it." I say trying to reassure myself. "Ok, I can do this" I say as I slowly grab my phone and turn on the screen.Welcome to the group chat!

Killer07: k.I stare looking at the phone in disbelief as the messages ping across my screen that I completely miss the fact that my name is Susan. It finally hits me after staring at the phone.
Bloodandtears:Prepare yourself Susan. We're coming.
Killer07: give it up. That's why we sent you the link. You stupid B!txh.I can't think. I just panic. That's when I hear it.
The knock coming from my closet.
