"Extremely Sppoky" Creepypastas

EarthBound: The War Against Edge

This is another unfinished creepypasta. I can't remember when I wrote this, but it was some time after the previous one. Around this time, I found out EarthBound had a few creepypastas based off of it; but they all kind of sucked. So I set out to create the scariest one possible! ... I guess by 'scary', I meant edgy. Very. Edgy. 

Oh, and bock-of-texty. That too.

Hello, My name is Richard. a much better fake name Im a fairly big gamer, playing all kinds of games from FPSs to platforms. Out of all the kinds of games Ive played, I prefer RPGs the most. After playing Chromo Trigger, I became more intrigued by obscure RPG titals and eventually asked one of my friends if they knew one I hadn't played before. He told me about a game for the SNES called EarthBound. It was strange that it had never occured to me that I hadn't played it yet, despite knowing a little about it thanks to Super Smash Bros. I agreed to check it out, but since appearantly finding game cartridges of it are rare and usally pricey, my friend said it would be best if I just downloaded a ROM. He recomended a well known rom sight called Cool Roms rip in peace Nintendo rom category and later that day, I went and downloaded it. I didnt know much about the game, but It looked cute enough in the few screenshots the website had of it, so I decided to get right into it. I started it up and watched the cutscenes at the begining, although the static and "War Against Gyigas" tital was a bit odd considering the games almost "Peanuts Gang" esque art style. I created a new save file and named all my characters by there default names, except for my dog, which I named after my real dog I had when I was just kid "Bonny". i've never had a dog named Bonny and this was pre-FNAF era so idk where i got that I didnt know what to put for the favorite thing and food, so I pressed the "Don't Care" option for them, giving me "Rockin" and "Steak". After that was finish, The game could finally begin. A cutseen of a town called Onett began and panned over to the house of Ness. Ness was in the bed asleep when a rumbling sound stared to shake the screen. It got louder and louder before a bright orange light obsured my veiw and a loud crash was heard. The screen then showed Ness laying on the ground, covered in soot outside a burnt down house. I could finally move and doing so shook off the soot. I look around at the house and the sourounding area. Another house neer it suffered the same fate, except for a large meteor that had imbedded itself in the center. The grass and trees were also chared, some even on fire. What a violent start to a game like this. I tried to enter the smoldering remains of my house and was surprisingly able to. Piles of wood laid blackend every where and there was no way to go upstairs. I didn't see anything that caught my eye so I checked a few of the piles. The messages I got for each one were... disturbing. "It seems like someone is under this..."

"It's a pile of burnt fur. Poor Bonny..."

"Mom?..."

Thus ends the first of two paragraphs. And don't worry, it gets edgier.

I was almost in tears and this was just the very beging! WUSS Maybe this was one of those games that stared out depressing and got better as it went along, is what I thought. Amoung the other piles of rubble, I found and equipped a cracked bat and left to explore the other house. It too, was full of burnt wood piles and its upstairs was inexcessible. Checking the piles only gave me the "It seems like someone is under this..." message or a "No problem here." which was obviously a lie. Then I focused my attention on the meteor imbeded in the floor. after checking in, a beam of light shot up from it toward the sky and a small bug appearded. It told me a long story about how it isn't a bee and that a great evil has come and how I might be one of the chosen ones, then it dissapeared. Was this really how this game began? Confused, I left the house. As I was about to continue down the path, I noticed a scourched lump in the houses front yard. "(It's your annoying neighbor, Pokey) Hhhngh....... N-nn...?" I seriously wanted to atleast try and help this person so I checked it again "... Even if you tried to help, theres nothing you can do right now." Dissapointed and even more saddened, I stared down a trail. I started to wonder why I was the only one who was perfectly ok. I knew Ness had PSI powes, but he cant just be invincible. After walking down the path in the dark grey grass I encountered a pitch black flying thing. I comenced battle and saw it was a spiteful crow. Its battle sprite was of a black bird in shades and a bowtie with its wings spread out. It was posed in a flailing manner, almost as if it we screaming, probably because its back was on fire. I felt a little bad for it but I attacked it anyways. It was a one hit K.O. and it "was put out of its misery." according to the game. I gained some exp and a cookie and continued. One I reached the town, I was shocked. Buildings were toppled and burt everywhere. Charred citizens were laied out in the streets. I... I was about finished with this game. Before I was about to close it out, I heard a ringing under one of the ruined buildings. I went inside and saw a telephone in the middle of the room. I answered it and was greeted by Ness's cheerful father, who saved my game and hung up. I haven't talked much about the music in this game. That's because, after the meteor fell, there had been nothing but sound effects and sometimes the pixelated crackle of fire. Even the battles were void of music aside from hitting noises. I wanted to get off now that I had saved, but I had a morbid curiosity of what would happen next, prompting me to continue. I walke throught the town, seeing much of the same destruction and encountering a few more enemies. I fought some snakes that looked almost like they were grilled, some absolutely depressing dogs that appeared to be burnt to the bone in some places, and somemore crows. I finally reached the exit of the town by going south. note that ness is appearantly still in his pjs because it was never established that he changed out of them I then came to actully seemingly fine town by the name of Twoson. I talked to some Npcs, now that there were some, who said some thing about "Onett being horribly oblitherated!" and " they can have the honor of being the first!" Why were these people so happy that a town next to them and all the people in it were destroyed? This game was just being sick... I looked around some more and saw a building that looked important and went inside. It turned out to be a preschool. Upon talking to the kids they said a few odd things like "I'm glad she's gone!" "Paula was a demon, thats why they took her." and "I thought her powers were kind of cool. Dont tell the teacher I said that." What?! I talked to the the lady walking around to the side of theroom. "Im Paula's mother, belive it or not. I know... Im truly ashamed to admit it. If your wondering were she is right now, I had the cult take that no good devils spawn of a girl away." Um... Yeah, I was getting more confused by the second. Devils spawn? This couldn't be right, the rating of this game was E, if I remember correctly. What the heck was going on here?! Besides, I had seen Paula's trophy from Super Smash Bros Brawl and she hardly seemed mean at all. I didn't bother entering any other rooms in the building and decided to check out a park I passed while looking around.

Aaand that's all that was written. Honestly, compared to the previous works, this was a step in the right direction. Sentence structure was fine, progression and build up were there, though a little weak. There were still some glaring errors mostly in the form of misspellings, but it was never spellchecked or revised or anything. What really stabbed this story in the foot though was the EDGE. WHOOOAA- SHOCK VALUE WATCHOUT!!! When writing this, I remember thinking "yep, this is preeety scary, alright" but looking back on it now, it comes off as a bit excessive.
