Phil's POV

is this real?

D: "Phil please don't let me die please"

Game
"Level 1! Let's start with a platformer!"

Dan was stood on a floating rock formation, with a countdown from 3.

The formations started to move, animated flames licking  either side of the screen.

D: "I can't move!"

I pressed d in hope that this game was based off of wasd. He moved.

The level took me only 5 mins to complete, and well,  I didn't kill him!

Game:
"well played. let's move onto a role playing game!"

Game:

"It'll be mystery style!"

He was stood in an old room, some mouldy wooden cupboards and dirty dishes surrounding him.

D: "It stinks! "

I found that if I press 'p' it zooms in and I can see from Dan's perspective.

Game:
"Level 2! You're on a timer, and you need to escape before then! Good luck! I look forward to seeing you die!"

DAN'S POV

How many levels are there? I'm tired after just 1! I can look left and hovering is a huge screen through which I can see Phil.

It sucks not being able to move myself. Talking drains my energy.

Almost finished! Ten seconds to go?!?! I still need to break the rest of this door with my crowbar!

SHIT SHIT SHIT I RAN OUT OF TIME!

I can see Phil frantically mashing buttons. I can swivel my head, but that's it.

A door opens, one that I completely missed before, and an old lady steps out. She's holding a lighter! In seconds
the whole building is burning!

Pain slowly spreads through me as I catch alight.

D: "AARGH HELP FUCK IT HURTS KILL ME STOP IT HELP ME"

PHIL'S POV

I can't watch. I look away and plug my ears and I can still hear him.

10 minutes pass.

The screaming stops.

I look over.

Game:
"You died! 2/3 lives left! You up for level 3? Stupid question! Of course you are! "

Dan's sat against the wall, he looks completely fine, but shaken.
