I woke up as I had enthusiastically promised myself to find Nintendo Switch games, especially Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild.

I got dressed and headed out in my Camaro. I went to local garage sales because I thought these games could be in them. As I searched around from sale to sale, I ended up finding one.

It was owned by a young mother who was selling her children games, hoping to expect a better future from them. As I walked up to the woman, I heard kids claim that her games were haunted.

"Bunch of balooney" I exclaimed to the kids. The woman was crying from what the kids had said to her. "T-Thanks for helping me" The lady confessed.

I nodded. "You can have the games for free" The lady continued, handing out the games the kids had. Jackpot! There was Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild.

"Thank you M'am!" I thanked, leaving the conversation. I had finally gotten Breath of the Wild in my hands. I got to the university by then and I loaded the game into the Nintendo Switch.

I smiled as the game had started. "Open your eyes..." Zelda whispered. "Katherine.." I jumped. The last time I recalled playing this game on my Wii U it wasn't Katherine, for it was Link.

I ignored it and soon I was able to play. This game had much creativity and allowed you to relate to the real world. It was like having your own adventure.

I completed all the shrines the Old Man told me to. As I got my paraglider I jumped off the building and soon the Blood Moon cutscene played.

"What is this crap?!" I protested. Blood Moon only came while you are making your way to Dueling Peaks Stable. As the blood moon cutscene played, there was no audio.

Zelda's voice could not be heard, but her subtitles of what she was saying were somehow in another language or CODE.

As it ended, everything was gone, no trees, enemies, horses, not even a single pebble. I was out of bounds. I had to escape this glitch somehow. Even if it wasn't a glitch.

As I ran to a field of trees and a camp of enemies, my game froze. I tried to push buttons , maybe making the game reload. I couldn't save or reload.

Soon, a message appeared on the top of the game screen.

" Some live to tell the story, will you?"

I covered my my mouth with my hands. I couldn't believe what was happening.

"I know, you're scared so what? Accept my challenge and I'll give you a reward, but that is only if you do  WHAT I SAY!"

I stood quiet. Then, there was a text to choose either yes or no. I clicked on yes, hoping to leave this game and return it to the woman.

"Good, but I'll just say this, this isn't a walk in the park."

Soon, the territory went back to normal and I began playing again. My mind flooded with what happened earlier. For right now, I really didn't care.

As I climbed the tower and gaining access to the map. I looked around for my next destination. I yawned as Link ran to an enemy camp.

I stopped my yawn. They weren't red Bokoblins, for they were silver.

"You met with a terrible fate, haven't you?"

"No,No,NO!" I yelled, smashing the Switch to the ground. I started to cry. I grabbed my phone and called Erissa. "Please answer!" I whispered, hoping she would.

She did. "Erissa, there is something wrong with your Nintendo Switch" I explained. "What! You're crazy, you need to sleep it's 3:00 in the morning!" Erissa scolded.

I got upset, and ended the call. I then looked at the game. " I hate you" I mumbled, turning the console off, and going back to sleep.
