I'm Serra and I'm 18 year old . I work at a grocery store as a part timmer. I had a nuclear family of 4 i.e. My mom , dad , shiro(dog) and me . I loved each one of them and they also loved me . We were a happy family.

I was a normal school student who was good at drawing and some sports. I also had a crush in my school named Chris. He was an elite at our school. Every girl in our school had a crush on him but guess what he had never dated anyone from our school. He had no interest in any girl he had ever met. Most people started to think that probably he was gay but he wasn't.

I was just like any other kid until one day when I drank something absurd and started to have hallucinations or maybe it was reality .

I was able to know what other people were thinking. I hated this superpower and suddenly one day when I woke up I saw that my superpower was gone and nobody was there in my house and whole neighborhood was empty. I was frightened and senseless thoughts started to come in my mind.

I then Realized how everything started and when I joined all the puzzle pieces, everything started to make sense.

It was a day before new year. I got a present from a stranger and the stranger said that I should give this to someone with the name crucifer , he mumbled and vanished into thin air . Firstly I was going to throw it away but then I don't know what happened but I brought it home . It was nicely covered in glittery blue gift wrapping paper and had a danger sign imprinted on it. It had a nice appearance so I thought that the danger sign was imprinted just for fun. I tore opened the glittery blue gift wrapping paper and saw that it was covered in other layers too . The next layer was of news papers so I tore them and the very next layers was of a bundle of cellophane sheets. I had to cut them with a pair of scissors . The very next layer was a box in a box and finally probably the last layer was of rubber bands. I had to cut them too and then it was covered in wrapping paper of blue colour and it was the last layer.

The gift was a game set . It looked very interesting and I wanted to see what kind of game it was but my mother called me so I could not open it. Other day went by and I totally forgot about the game because I had an exam coming up. It was finally the day of the exam and the last day of us all gathered together at school. After the exam there was a small party at my friends house and we all had to bring a gift with us . I suddenly remembered about that game and decided to gift that to her .

I covered it with a nice glittery dullbluish purple wrapping paper. I wore a nice black dress with black stelletoes.

I exactly wore it like this.

This is my first book and I hope that you people will like it.

I went to my friends house and knocked on the door . She opened the door and welcomed me . I wasn't late for the last time but actually I was quite early. When I went inside, Jack was already present there. Shortly all 5 of us gathered at Stella's house. Let me introduce my friends, the boldest of all is Becky , the sweetest and hopelessly romantic one is Stella, the funniest of all is definitely me , the craziest of all is Jack and the bravest and coolest of all is Louis.

We decided to organize the last get together at Stella's house because she brought that apartment recently. She told us that it would be fun to organize it at her house because there was no one else over there and we all agreed to it.

Stella's house was decorated so beautifully that everyone on us praised her for her creativity. She said that she decorated it herself and she also told that it took her a week to do so.

We all sat by the fire place and started to chit chat a bit and then Jack turned on the speakers so we all danced and drank a bit of alcohol.

We got tired real soon from dancing so we all decided to play some games.

I suggested them to play the game I gifted to Stella because I just wanted to know that what kind of game was it.

Stella opened up the gift and she was mesmerized by the box's packaging. She opened up the box and saw a metal board with some dice , cards, colored pawns and a small metal stick . We had to set up the board in order to play it.

I picked blue colored pawn and threw the dice first. I got 15 on the dice and from the start of the game the 15th place was an abandoned house in the middle of a forest.

2nd chance was of Becky and she got 7 so she landed on a cruise ship in the middle of the sea. 3rd chance was of Louis and he got 14 so he landed on a tree house in the middle of the forest. We both were near each other. 4th chance was of Stella and she got 3 so she landed on an island. The island was named extricate. The last Chance was of Jack . He rolled the dice and got 15 too . We landed on the same place . After his chance we decided to quit the game . It was almost 1:00 at night so We started to play never have I ever and we all shared some secrets and drank too much alcohol. We decided before that if we all got drunk then we'll sleepover at Stella's house. The game never have I ever continued till 3:00 at night and after that everyone got Hella drunk and I believe everyone blacked out.

I tried my best to go to Stella's room but failed and fell on the Stairs and slept there.

The next day I when I woke up I saw am unusual ceiling. I knew that it wasn't my house or my friends house. I remembered falling asleep on the stairs but how was I on the bed. I got up and went down. I could feel that it wasn't Stella's house. I tried calling out the name of my friends and tried calling my family but no one answered. I got really scared so I opened the window and saw something unexpected. On Peeping out of the window all I could see was trees . I searched the whole house and found no one inside other than me. I got out of the house and tried calling out for help. I shouted that is anyone there but there wasn't even a single noise. I got really scared and decided to go back to the house because I atleast had a shelter to protect myself from rain and other things . On my way back to the house I woke up at I could feel that I was in the middle of the forest and probably that house was abandoned.

I also thought about how creepy the house looked. By looking at it , I felt that the house was almost 100 years old . It was made out of wood . Some stairs and some parts of floor was broken. The whole house gave some vintage kind of vibes . It had a huge kitchen attached to the living room and the front door. One room was downstairs and others were upstairs. It total had 6 rooms. The roof was covered with leaves and small plants. The whole house was very dusty . Some of the window panes had cracks on them and most of them were broken. All the windows were covered in white dusty curtains.

I came back to the house and decided not to worry too much and make sure to survive. I checked the house again and found some food and water .

I somehow managed to set up the fire and cook some instant Ramen for me. I really don't know that how Ramen was present there but still I decided to eat it because it was the only source of food. After eating I went back to the room I woke up at.

I could feel emotions building up inside me.

I could feel the emotion of unbelongingness, I could feel myself drowning in my emotions or clearly drowning into depression. I wasn't able to think of anything good . All I could think was of things full of uncertainty , absurdness and negativity . I was really scared to be alone in the middle of nowhere. As it started to get darker outside I started to get panicked about how I was going to live or what would happen to me if I'm the only person alive.

I tried my best to think about positive things but I failed.

Shortly after all these things I somehow convinced myself to sleep.
