Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"REALLY!" I angrily shouted. One zombie...She beats me by one flipping zombie how is that even possible? You know I don't even care about that one zombie, it's the fact of how she beat me in our little game. So a young adult that plays a lot of games gets beat by a talking pony who doesn't know a single thing about games and hasn't played one before, if another gamer saw this I would of deserved a bitch slap. I looked at Luna who had a smug look on her face.

"Say it" Luna said.

"Say what?" I replied

"Say who is better than thou at zombie slaying".

"No"

"Say it" Luna Repeated.

"No!" We repeated until she started poking with her hoofs on my side while saying those 2 words, "Ah! Don't do that!" I jumped slightly.

"Why?"

"I'm a little ticklish there"

"Oh are thou" Said Luna with a sly smile.

*gulp* "Luna don't you even think about AH! *giggles* stop!" I was interrupted as she began her poking.

"Say it then we will stop".

"Never!" I retaliated.

"Then the tickling...shall be doubled" Luna stated before going more forceful and faster with her poking.

"Ha-ha Luna stop! Hahaha Cut it out!" I kept jumping slightly away from her each time she poked until I reached the arm bit of the sofa. "Luna stop-" I started swinging my arms around "Woah woah woah!" *thud* I fell off of the sofa and landed on my back with my legs upwards.

"Oh my stars! Gavin are thou ok?!" Luna panicked

"Yea I'm ok" Not really that landing kind of did hurt my back.

"Did we go little to much on the poking?".

"You think?" I said sarcastically.

"Let us help thou up" Luna insisted.

"No it's alright I can get up" Before I could even move a muscle a blue aura covered my whole body and lifted me up from the ground. "What the?" I looked at Luna who had the same aura on her horn and was smiling at me. She lowered me to the floor and I landed my feet before she stopped using her magic. "Thanks it was not needed but thanks" She nodded then we both smiled and then laughed a little then it ended with an awkward silence. The silence was broken by a message from the Xbox popping up ' It's Scott wonder what he wants? '. " Hey check out this game its really good " I scrolled along the game marketplace and found the game and started downloading it. The download was completed and I put the game on. 'White Noise A Tale Of Horror' appeared on the menu screen, I took Luna's controller and turned it off then sat back on the sofa.

"Are we not playing?" Luna gives a sad face.

"Yes you're still playing I'm just switching off your controller because this is a 1 player game and it will just be wasting the power on the controller if we leave it on, Anyways we will take turns playing" She broke from her sadness and nodded.

"Err Gavin may we take the first turn?" Asked Luna.

"Hmm are you sure? Do you think you can handle a horror game?"

"We are the princess of the night, we are not scared of anything".

"Ha, we shall see if that is bullshit". I handed her my controller, sat back and watched. "So do you know what you're doing?" I asked Luna.

"We don't know but it said something about finding 8...type recorders?" Luna puzzled at the last two words.

"8 tape recorders? ...wait a min" I said as I was realizing something. I counted through the list with my fingers ' Starts in a Creepy place, a player holding a flashlight, find 8 things and I'm betting there is something chasing you and the only thing you can do is run . "Aw not another fucking slender type game" I whispered to myself with my right hand over my eyes. Luna starts walking along a path near where she spawned then arrives at some small pillars with vases on top on each side of the path, We both started hearing a static radio noise near one of the pillars.

"What is that noise?" said Luna.

"I don't know but it could be one of those type recorders, try looking behind that pillar" I pointed at one of the pillars where the noise was coming from. I was right it was one of the eight type recorders, she walks up towards it and picks it up. A stomping sound echoed repetitively in the background as Luna continues down the path. The path splits into two and Luna choose to go left, she arrives at a graveyard which also had the static noise like the one from the pillars. The static noise was getting closer as she was making her way to a stone tomb, she looked inside and found another type recorder then picked it up. The background noise became darker and was getting a bit scary. Luna continued onward until...

*Screen Flashes White*

"AH!" Luna screamed.
"WOAH WHAT THE HELL!" I Shouted.

Luna and I were staring at what I was assuming the monster that chases after you. It was all white and its claws were all red which I'm guessing is blood and its face was like the face of a Xenomorph from Alien, but it wasn't long and black. The screen started turning static and fuzzy.

"What is that thing!?" Luna Panicked.

"I don't know but you have to run!" I said.

"Run!?"

"Yes run!" I replied in a slightly louder tone, She followed my advice and ran the opposite direction.

"Why are we running away can't we kill it?" said Luna confused.

"No the only thing you can do in this game is running away"

"That's no fun" Luna huffed.

"Well that's what makes these kind of horror games good" I explained, "Most people enjoy horror games because of the thrills, scares and you can play pranks on others with some games."

"Well...Maybe thou are right"

She continued with the game and has collected another type which is now her 3rd out of the 8.

' Speaking of Pranks ' I thought.

"IT'S THERE!" I shouted pointing at the screen making Luna jump.

"Where, Where is it, we do not see it!?" Luna panicked. I couldn't hold my laugh any longer Luna noticed what I did. "That is not funny!".

"U MAD! Hahahahaha" *SMACK* "OW...Damn girl you hit hard". I started rubbing the bit that Luna hit on my right arm

She ignored my comment and stared back at the TV. She appeared at some Giant Heads there were some weird monster growls coming from behind her, she then turned around (BAD CHOICE!).

"AHH!" Luna screamed.
"SHITTING HELL!" I shouted.

The Monster caught Luna and then the screen turned black with the words "You Are Dead" in red. Luna had collected 3 out of 8 type recorders.

"Ha! Told you would be scared" Pointing my finger at her.

She lifted her head high away from me "We were not the only one scared".

"Hey I wasn't scared I just jumped whenever that thing appeared"

"Lies, lies all lies" Luna obviously knows I was talking bull.

"Aw whatever, anyway that wasn't bad...But I bet I can do better" I said.

"Well then why don't thou show us" Luna sits the controller on my lap.

"I will and I'll make you a deal"

"We are listening"

"Whoever gets all 8 type recorders wins the deal, If I get all type recorders...", I paused as I was thinking how to deal would be, "you have to make me breakfast for this week".

"But if we win" Luna questioned.

"If you win, then I have to make you pancakes every morning for this week".

Luna thought for a couple of seconds " Deal " We both agreed by bumping my fist with her hoof, I picked up the controller and started the game while Luna just sat and watch.

I started on what it looked like to be a road near what was some kind of stone maze structure only a small one I went inside and looked around for the 1st type. I found it and the stomping sound echoed repetitively in the background again And now I've got Slender's Bitch after me ' I got myself out of there and walked along a path uphill. I got to place with the pillars with vases where Luna got her 1st type and Bingo! The 2nd type collected. The background music became darker. The Path split into 2 ways I turned left *White Flash* the creature appeared "Fuck" I jumped "Defiantly not going that way". So I ran onwards on the other path and didn't have a clue on where I was going since Luna went the other way. There was a stream that went under the stoned path so I thought ' Maybe if I follow this stream it might direct me to a tape '. The stream took me to this very large pipe that had iron bars in it and yep I was right there was a type recorder. I found the 4th type which was stuck to one of the 3 giant statue's hands which wasn't far from the pipe, The music after picking it up completely changed and was just really creepy my legs was starting to shake.

"So Luna" With a sly smile "As you can see I have now got 4 types which I'm pretty sure that is better than your 3 types".

"We still think thou will not win" well thanks for not having faith in me.

"Just you wait Luna, Just you wait".

Leaving the giant hands with the 4th tape in hand I kept walking onwards on the rocky path until giant collapsed statue heads were in my view where I'm guessing the 5th tape was possibly placed. I've must have been here for a minute because I couldn't find the damn tape anywhere the noise is here I just couldn't see it. "For god sake where is it" I said in a pissed tone, "Ah ha there it is" before I could even move to it *White Flash* "Jesus!" the monster appeared 10 steps away from the type. "Oh no you don't, you're not stopping me from getting it YOLO!" I ran towards the tape retrieved it then ran through the woods. My character then coughed which tells me that he is out of breath "No nonono don't stop running that things right fucking behind you" I panicked. After a few seconds I ran again making to another obstacle which looked like three statues of giant hippo heads in a triangle position with each mouths open. The music? Man after finding that 6th type shakes and shivers where all over my body I can't even describe this one it's just too dark. Body was I lucky next to hippo statues was the graveyard I ran straight for the place and went to the same stone tomb Luna went to on her turn. ' YES! OMG the intension is killing me 7 types collected come on one more lets hope Luna knows how to make breakfast '. I turned to go out the same way I came in but that was out of the question because *White Flash* the monster was standing at the bit where I entered the place. "No not now!" I did a 90 degree turn and bolted it into the woods knowing that the monster is properly gonna be behind me for now on.

While running through trees Luna was chanting whist swaying left and right "It's going to get thou, It's going to get thou".

"Luna...now is NOT! the time" I grunted.

I somehow managed to get out the woods and came back to the road where I was at the start of the game. What caught my view in the distance was a small hut next to the road I ran straight towards it begging like crazy that the last tape is in there. I made it into the doorway and went inside it was completely empty and when I mean empty, I mean there was nothing in here no sound not even the tape wasn't there. "Aw shit this was a bad idea coming in here" I was scared to turn around but I had no choice so I did...

"Fucking!, Shit!" I jumped back chucking the controller in mid air which Luna catches it with her magic. The screen turned black with the words "You are dead" and instead of 3 types it said "you have collected 7 out of 8 type recorders". I think I'll let this guy show you what my reaction was like . I sat there with my hands over my face "No ONE I just needed ONE!" I whined. I heard failed attempts of trying to stop laughing from Luna, I removed my hands off my face and turned to her "Aw shut up it's not funny".

"Thou are right it is not funny...we find it hilarious" Luna said before she laughed her flank off on the sofa.

"You know what fuck this game, I'm going to get myself a drink you want one Luna", She was still laughing after I said that but she stopped after a few seconds.

"No thanks we are fine".

I got off the sofa and walked into the kitchen, I pulled a can of Irn-Bru from the fridge and I looked up at the clock showing the time 10:30 after opening the can. "Aw crap...err Luna".

"Yes" Luna replied from the living room.

"It seems during our game time I've kinda forgotten to make dinner, You hungry or are you not bothered".

"No it is fine, we are not really hungry".

"You sure, Not even hungry for supper" I took a sip of my drink.

"Yes we are sure"

"Ok if you say so" I took another sip.

"Oh Gavin" She said in a cheesy tone.

"Yea"

"We hope thou have got a weeks worth of pancakes"

"Let me check", I moved my hand towards the cupboard where I keep my baking ingredients and then moved it away "...wait why I'm I checking?".

"Huzzah! We have all 8 type recorders!" She shouted with excitement.

The second I heard that I ran straight into the living room behind the sofa looking at the T.V, No. Fucking. Way. She was telling the truth it showed 8/8 types and the music had stopped suddenly the flashlight broke and the screen went red as if she was holding a red flashlight. The character's hands appeared on screen but they weren't human hands and the screen went all static and then Black. "An ancient evil awakens from its slumber" was all that was on the black screen. I looked at Luna who was giving a smug look at me while lifting her eyebrow up and down, I turned away then back to her she still giving me that look.

"What?" I said, She then gives me a 'Bitch you know what I mean' look and I huffed "Fine let me go have a look". I went back into the ingredients cupboard and did my check "Ok it looks like I've got enough for 2 days" I walked out the kitchen towards the sofa "I'll just get some more tomorrow" and sat back down. I swear to god she is trying to annoy me and looked at her yet again still giving me that look.

"If you keep that smug look on that face any longer I'm gonna send that royal hind of yours to the moon" I joked.

Luna gives me look of disapproval before saying "My sister had performed a similar feat a thousand years ago."

"Wait! What!?" I raised an eyebrow

"Our sister had banished a pony to the moon for 1000 years", Luna explained

"Really? Why was this pony banished?" I asked with a confused look. Luna didn't reply she just sat there with her head down with a tear slowly running down her cheek. "Luna? ..." I placed my hand on her shoulder and leaned forward a little "...you ok?". She turned to look at my hand then me 'Whoa...how come I've never noticed how beautiful her eyes are'.

"We are fine" Wiping the tear away "We just do not like talking about it".

"Hey, You don't want to talk about it, You don't have to" I took my hand away from her shoulder. "Just remember, If you need somebody to talk to I'm here for you"

"Really?" said Luna

"Well yeah, We're friends are we?" she shrugged "Well let's think about it for a second, You came from outta nowhere crash landing on me and fixed my nose after that little chase incident". "You needed a place to stay which I could of said no and left you there...but there was no way in hell I could of done that" This made Luna smile "especially one that looks beautiful" Luna turned her face sideways and her cheeks turned red...wait? How the hell can she blush shes covered in fur, eh what the hell can't be bothered. "And I'm giving you food, water and shelter...and lets not forget entertainment" I stick my thumb out towards the Xbox, "So yeah I think we can call each other friends".

"Indeed thou are a wonderful friend Gavin" She lifts her forehoof on my shoulder.

I looked away from her "Aw come on now you're just being polite" she giggled making me giggle along with her.

She Leaped off the sofa and lands on all fours "We are going to bed now hope thou don't mind".

"Na I don't mind" She makes her way towards my bedroom door.

"Goodnight Luna"

She turned her head to me "Goodnight Gavin" And walks into the room shutting the door behind her.

After she was gone I couldn't help but think why was she being so saddened about talking about that pony who was sent to the moon. I've spent a few minutes fiddling around with my iPod on the game apps then decided to call it a night. I undressed until I had only my top and boxers on before I flipped the lights off and tucked myself in my blanket awaiting to hope tomorrow is gonna be even better.
