In this story, there are 15 contestants who have to figure out the game called Flicker. When worst comes to worst, you have to rely on your wits. Love, hate, entitlement, and friendship are what power through, right? When two alien beings, who conveniently are twins, lay back and observe the obstruction, they learn how to win the game and who are the liars of the bunch.
This is my first published story so I'm working out the kinks and stuff, but thank you if you do indeed read it. I also created the title in a hurry using Canva so it's tiny but Like they say, Don't judge a book by it's cover.
*IMPORTANT* Some characters are referred to as she or him despite being nonbinary, and Fayola is a mother figure. This is in a slightly different time (for me at least) where those things aren't as prominent. That's why Mikah refers to Fayola as them but Narrator doesn't. This is kind of like an old horror story but I digress. I still love the community as a whole and it is not meant to disrespect the characters in any way shape or form.
ALSO I KNOW I'M RANTING BUT I TAKE IDEAS FOR FICTIONS FROM CRK, FLICKER, AND UHHHHHH OTHER POPULAR GAMES BUT I DO THEM LEGALLY.
TW: Blood, gore, swearing, fighting, talks of suicide and murder. Read at your own risk!
