Winding Away

Unconscious

"So how's your channel going?" Matt asked Nate. The two were walking in the direction of Matt's house. Nate was looking out towards the sunset with a grin on his face.

Nate shrugged. "Oh, ya know. Pretty good. Not as good as yours of course." His smile widened. "Speaking of my channel, I got a pretty good idea for a video the other day. I was wondering if you could help me with it."

"Of course! What's the idea?"

They were almost at Matt's house, where the two would go their separate ways.

"A music video for a Five Nights at Freddy's song I wrote," Nate said. Five Nights at Freddy's was a video game that was made at the height of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza's popularity. It had a creepy atmosphere, but the jump scares were what really got people. The horror game was even more popular than the thing it was based off of. Nate and Matt both made videos about the series, though they were pretty different. While Matt analyzed the lore, Nate actually played the game, as well as writing songs about it.

"Cool. I can't wait to hear the song. Your music combined with FNaF? It must be great."

Nate's smile widened even more. "That's great to hear. I suppose I should tell you what you're getting yourself into." He stopped walking, coming to a standstill in front of Matt's door. He turned to face Matt. Suddenly Matt thought Nate's friendly smile looked more like an evil smirk. "It involves someone getting kidnapped."

Matt frowned. "Wha-?" Before he could finish, he was punched in the face. He lost his balance and fell onto his back. "Nate, what the heck?!"

"Heh heh." Nate stood above Matt, his grin now quite obviously evil. He said nothing as he kicked Matt in the head. Matt clung onto his consciousness as he was kicked again. The last thing he saw was Nate looking down at him. Then everything went black.
