Gory Games

Chapter 1

I woke up in the middle of the night. I had a horrible nightmare. As I was thinking about it, it started to fade from my memory. But I was terrified. I was breathing heavily and I was sweating. I stood up and looked around the room. It was dark and I could see the moonlight. Then I heard a knock on the door. I freaked out. I stood up shaking and slowly opened the door. Nobody was there. It was probably just my sister jerking around. Then after I closed the door I closed my eyes and turned around. When I opened them, I saw, next to my closet a little boy. He had his face covered with his dark bangs. He walked closer to me. At this point I was about to faint. I couldn't move and I couldn't breathe. He was really close to me now. I looked down at him but he wouldn't look up. Suddenly, he raised his hand at the level of my neck and grabbed it and started choking me. I couldn't do anything. I was trying to move his hand away but he was too strong. I was barely breathing and I couldn't see well. But I felt more hands on my body grabbing my arms and legs and waist and I was like a prisoner too them. They covered my mouth my eyes and then nothing. I didn't feel anything anymore. It was like they went away. I still couldn't see anything. It was like I was blind. Then I found myself there again, but it was strange. I could see all the ghosts taking my body and getting out from it something blue, like a blue light. Then I realized, they were taking out my soul. So I was now a ghost? What is my family going to think?! I started screaming but nothing was coming out of my mouth, I stared moving violently, but nothing was happening. Then it was dark again. I woke up in my bed crying, shaking. My hair was a mess. Was that a dream? Thank God it was just a dream. After a while I couldn't fall asleep, so I took out my spirit portal box and plugged it in. I lit up a candle and I took a cross and put it on the box. I sat down on my knees and started asking questions. Obviously the spirits wouldn't say anything important. Then I heard my door open. This time it was my sister.

"What are you doing up so late? SP box? Seriously?" She asked as she closed the door.

"I couldn't sleep, Leo. I had this horrible nightmare. I tried to sleep but I couldn't so I thought I'd do a session." I said calmly.

"What was the dream about?" She asked sitting next to me.

"I don't really remember. It's no big deal." I said and looked back at the box.

"Did you hear a knock on the door?" She asked rather scared.

"I did, but the I realized it was all a dream as I told you." I said.

"Really? Because I heard it too. And it couldn't have been mom or dad, I woke up immediately as I heard the knock and I didn't see anything. I actually thought it was you at first but after you told me..." she said a little terrified. "Anyways, can I join you on this? I couldn't sleep either after this." She said rubbing her hands.

"Of course." I said smiling and we both continued the session until we fell asleep.

The next morning we woke up and our parents weren't home. Of course they weren't. They had to go to work.

"Eli?" Said my sister.

"Hm?" I asked sleepy.

"What time is it?" She asked.

"It's...half past eleven." I said looking at the clock.

"What?! Are you fucking kidding me?! I'm going to be late for school!" She said getting up and hurrying to her room.

"Hey! I'll prepare you breakfast!" I yelled after her.

"I don't have time for breakfast! I'll take something with me!" I could hear her from her room.

"Fine!" I yelled again and sat in my bed. I kept trying to remember what was the nightmare about, but I just couldn't do it. It was like it faded away. Then my sister went to school. I was home alone. I was so bored so I took out my SP-box again and started a new session. I talked to the spirits even though they wouldn't keep a straight conversation, they just kept saying random things. Then I heard something. It was like a thing that fell on the floor. It didn't seem weird because strange things have been happening since I was brought to this house. So I went calmly to investigate and I was right. The snow globe on my parents' shelf fell and broke into shards and it was wet everywhere. 'Fuck!' I whispered to myself. 'I have to clean all this shit.' So I did even though I didn't want to and then continued my convo. Then I felt like something fell on the floor again.

"What now?!" I yelled.

I went to see what the hell fell again. My jaw dropped when I saw the same snow globe fell on the floor. It was like it was reassembled and shattered again. So I had to clean it up again. When I was about to get out of the room I heard it again. I turned around and for a moment, a single moment, I saw the body of a little boy. It had a strange reddish light around him. Now I started to freak out and I ran to my room and closed the door and called my mom.

"Mom?! Mom! Please for God's sake answer! Hi? Mom! I just saw something listen! I was in my room and the snow globe fell and I cleaned it up, then it fell again and I cleaned it up again and then it fell and I saw a little boy for a bare moment and I swear I'm not crazy. Can you come home, please! I'm scared mom!" I told her crying.

"I can't sweetie, I'm at an important meeting. I can't miss it. I'm sure you'll be fine." She said confidently.

"Do you think dad will be able to come?" I said desperately.

"Your dad is on a business trip. He can't come home until ten pm." She said.

"And what am I supposed to do?! I can't stay in this house alone anymore! Can I at least go somewhere else? Can I go eat somewhere else?!" I asked my mom shaking.

"I'm sorry, hun but I don't think it's a good idea." She said.

"And staying in a haunted house is." I said angry.

"I have to go. But I'll call you later and I'll come home as soon as I can." She said.

"Ok...ok..." I agreed still crying.

"See you later." And she hung up.

"Yeah..." I answered and I sat on the floor resting my head on the door crying constantly because I swear it was all real.
