Not much time passed until they noticed other people settling in around them. They were conflicted but the three also knew that they had to make some friends.

So they took their pickaxes and some basic combat gear and food and looked for a cave that was pretty much in the center of all the people they could see.

"You think they're gonna kill us right away ?" Tim asked.

"I'm not sure man, I saw one guy that had a hella good axe with him, he looked, well, let's say he looks a bit like your average creepy cousin.
Different colored eyes and white-ish hair...
Bro looked like he hadn't slept"
Joel said, with a smile in his voice.

Grian didn't know what to think of this,
"I've also seen someone but they looked rather... Nice?", he said still a bit conflicted.

"What do you mean by that?" Tim asked.

"Well idk.. they had a like a big scar on the I think left side of their face, on their nose and on their arm. But they also wore glasses and a Hawaii shirt..
It just doesn't fit together idk.." Grian said, trying to find the right words.

"Well-" Joel started before hearing people enter the cave.

"Hello ??" A voice shouted.

The three looked at eachother in fear.

"Come here guys!" Grian whispered aggressively.

Tim and Joel went over to Grian, who grabbed both by their hips and flew to the ceiling with a quiet 'whoosh'.

Now they watched as a few people walked to the place where they talked  just a minute ago.

"Wasn't there someone here ?" A guy with black hair said.

"I swear there was someone here.." He continued.

"Maybe they went outside?" ,another guy said, "go search outside skizz.." He continued while looking around.

The guy with black hair now made his way out of the cave, so that was skizz.
A black haired dude, with a beard and almost fancy clothing. He was rather handsome looking with seemingly constant smiling happy eyes. His eyes were sea green as if someone had tried to turn them green but failed, because of the, probably to strong, blue coloration of his eyes before.

Did everyone's eyes turn green when the game started then? I guess it has to.

Which has to be why Grains Hazel eyes with black outlines turned to a grass green with a dark green outline.

But while the three were hoping to get out of this misery soon, the voice from the start of the game appeared again.

"Hello there people. This is getting a bit boring to watch, so how about a little twist ?
From now on every 4 hours, a boogeyman will be chosen. The boogeyman has the opportunity to kill a player and gain a whole hour of time, instead of the regular 30 minutes",

'That's gonna be dangerous and yet it could save one of us' Grian thought while looking at Tim and Joel who were both seemingly angrily scared.

The voice continued...

"However if the boogeyman does not manage to kill someone in 4 hours, they will loose 2 hours from their time..
All of you will now see a dot in front of you...
If the dot is Green, you're not the boogeyman..

If the dot is red, you're the boogeyman and you must, under all circumstances,

Kill someone.."

And with small cracking sound, indicating that a microphone was turned off, the guy stopped speaking.
