Level One: Chapter 9

Before I did start running though, something else happened. The beast , Ivory Fangdrift, made it's appearance. It wasn't one, but five of them together this time. Someone was speaking again. "Welcome to Level One of 'The Games'. Goal: Defeat all the beasts. Reward: not disclosed. Good luck players!"

I was doomed. I had no one alongside me to fight against this thing, and all the weapons collected were taken away by the others. One of the beast ran to the red haired guy and finished him. I was next. 

What else could I do except run? The beasts were going haywire , sending the abandoned cars flying , throwing them around like they were nothing but scrap. I ran , my legs pulling me everywhere but near the beasts who were running after me. Adrenaline rushing through me, I ran into a building. 

Four of the beasts had left me with one of the beasts while they had run towards something else. I could hear distant gunshots among the chaos. The other survivors were probably out. The sun began setting. It was dark, everywhere. I ran up the staircase , the beast breaking every obstacle in it's way, the only way I had to slow it down. 

'6th floor', '10th floor'.... It was never ending. I kept running up and it kept chasing me. If only I had something to defend myself. "Grace! Hang in there a little longer!" It was Sam! She was that one friend who were there for you during your hard times. And she proved herself yet again. Unfortunately though, she was a tad bit too late. The beast caught on to me , and even though I heard a faint sound of gunshot , an attempt to distract the beast , it took me in. The huge canines inside it's large mouth gaped at me , and I knew ... this was going to be my end.

I shut my eyes tight. I was going to accept this death. I can't fight this thing! Just as the beast was inches away from eating me up, it stopped. In fact , everything stopped. The beast stopped moving , as if someone hit pause on it. So did everything else. The sound of gunshots , the distant screech of the beasts , Sam.... 

The voice that spoke at the beginning of this "level" reappeared again, this time , as a person. She was tall... with long blonde hair till her knees and thick eyelashes. She was drop dead gorgeous, each features highlighted in the right ratio. Thin, slender ,and she wore a lavender gown that followed her steps wherever she walked. "Hi, Grace. I am Haley, the first recruiter of 'The Games. You can move".

She smiled. A fairy , she was. But what was with the sudden appearance?
