It was just a game. Simple and carefree like all other games. It was a way for bored teenagers to let loose for a bit; a way for us to feel powerful, wild and alive. We all loved it, the game. We wanted to play forever. But we got older, more responsible; we had to leave behind the game and all its secret pleasures and guilt. But one of us couldn't let it go; someone didn't want to stop playing. It was just a game, at least it was only a game in the beginning but not anymore.
 
             Aida, Joyce, Ari, Felix, Narissa, and Evan were all once close friends years ago. In their senior year of high school, they had decided to play the game they all loved one last time. But something went wrong in that last game, something horribly and irreversibly wrong, something they never spoke of again but can still see the truth of what happened in each other's eyes. The game that had brought them together was also the thing that broke them apart. For ten years they put the truth of what happened behind them but when one of their old friends is murdered in strange circumstances   they realize that someone is trying to bring back the old game along with its old players.All Rights Reserved

BL4M3 M3 by Fayvourwrites

In the quiet town of Stoneybrook, a haunting secret lies buried beneath the surface, waiting to resurface with chilling consequences. Five years ago, an 11-year-old boy named Jeremy committed an unfathomable act, taking the life of his best friend to protect someone he loved. The shocking event shook the community to its core, leaving scars that still linger. Among the witnesses was young Arianna, whose innocent eyes beheld the unimaginable tragedy. Now, she's grown, but the nightmares and memories remain, forever intertwined with Jeremy's return to Stoneybrook. As he steps back into town, the shadows of the past loom larger, and an unsettling feeling grips the hearts of its residents. Just two days after Jeremy's arrival, a fresh murder shatters the town's fragile peace, plunging it into turmoil once more. But this time, the suspects are not limited to one troubled boy; they are four teenagers-longtime best friends with a shared history. Three of them are innocent, but one conceals the truth, a truth that could tear their friendship apart forever. As the investigation unfolds, alliances blur, and loyalties waver. Each of the four friends holds a piece of the puzzle, but unlocking the dark secret demands delving into the depths of their past and confronting the demons they thought they left behind. With time running out, the pressure to find the real killer intensifies, and the entire town becomes a web of secrets and lies. As the clock ticks, the boundaries between right and wrong blur, and the line between friend and foe fades away. The answers lie buried in the minds of these four friends, and only one question remains: who among them is the true murderer?

One by one by WorthyReading

It wasn't very difficult to plan out my first victim. I watched them all day, studied their movements, listened to their conversations, and watched them fall asleep.

Why would they have to be scared for their lives when they were oblivious to how fast I could end them? When all goes wrong, nothing else can go right. A last week school field trip could cost you your life. But why think that way when the trip has yet to begin. When a group of five friends go on a school field trip to the woods, things seem normal until one of them goes missing.
