Bella swam through the water as behind her the rest of the players stood waiting for her, with Den holding onto the other end of the rope; hoping she got to the other side safe so that they could do so as well.

"She's going to make it right?" Reggie asked.

"Damn right," Sue answered as Den continued to give her more rope as she swam on.

SQUEAL! SQUEAL! SQUEAL! The creatures sounded, with their squeals echoeing here and there, and the players all looked back with their hearts about to pop like balloons; the creatures were getting closer.

"Oh no here they come," Mandy said.

"Come on Bella hurry, hurry," Sue said as in the water Bella swam on. The water was dark on the surface but underneath it was crystal clear and so she made her way along with ease. There were a few tunnels down there that went in different directions but she stuck to the one that went straight on.

Three minutes later, Bella popped up on the other side. She knew where she was and so she made sure to do so quiet, as no

    The players walked on through the sleeping bowl of the creatures, as quiet as they could be so as to not awaken them but little did they know that the creatures waking up had nothing to do with how quiet they were; they were going to wake up no matter how quiet they were because that was what Mr. Kingman had ordered and when the code had been entered into the system, the creatures began to wake up. The players had their eyes peeled; looking this way, that way and everywhere and so they saw very clearly that the creatures were beginning to wake up, slowly beginning to pull themselves away from the huddle and getting into stretching their fingers, arms and backs; a sight that immediately brought them to a stop as all the hairs on their skins stood up. "Oh no, oh come on," a man watching on his laptop said as he threw his hands over his eyes. "You have got to be freaking kidding me," a girl watching on her phone said. "Ah! Oh my gosh they're waking up, oh no, oh no!" a girl watching

    In a mere second, POP! Bella's eyes widened as big as the eyes of an owl and she zoned back in and with not a moment to spare, she leaped off the rocks pulling her knives out and landed on the top of one of the creatures; stabbing the first in the back of its head, slicing the second's head off and stabbing the third one as well. She then flipped forward and landed on the cave floor, with Sue in between her legs, and went beast mode on the creatures. SCHWING! SCHWING! SCHWING! Bella sliced and stabbed them everywhere; in their mouths, across their chests, in their necks, across their necks and even slicing their hands off as they tried to grab her, as their pink blood splattered everywhere.The creatures tried to put their hands on her and bite her but her skill wouldn't let them. Whenever one was close to doing so Bella's lightning quick reflexes caught them and she reacted; so quick the other players were blown away, the viewers too whose jaws had dropped all the way down to the lap

  • WELCOME TO OUTLIVE   No they're not

    "Players of Outlive, welcome to level 8," Lora's voice said to the viewers and the players who were standing in the middle of a medium sized transparent tunnel that connected the small shape ship behind them to the much bigger one in front of them. They were in outer space and right in the middle of a nebula that had clouds of dust and gas glowing purple, pink and blue and had over a thousand sparkling stars in it; and what a sight it was that both the players and the viewers were blown away by it immediately they saw it."Oh wow that is gorgeous," a woman watching on her laptop said."Oh man check out that view, very nice," a man watching on his TV said."Oh my gosh look at that, WOW," a girl watching on her tablet said."Wow," Bella said breathless as she and the other players stood looking around in complete awe; neither of them had ever seen anything like it. It was one thing seeing pictures of what space looked like but being right in the middle of it was absolutely spectacular.

    The creature ran down the passageway towards the players and Bella pulled her other gun out, spun them both around like a cowboy and pointed them forward. The creature was just as Mandy had said; tall and slimy. It was dark grey in colour with the face of an angler fish but with bigger eyes and larger teeth that protruded outwards and huge frills on the side of its head. It had a few spines poking out of its back like a porcupine and had four hands like a praying mantis; hands it used to run that were slender and sharp like massive needles, with dinosaur-like legs that bent backwards. "Oh-my-GOSH!" a boy watching on his laptop shouted. "Aah!" two best friends watching on a laptop shouted as they moved in close to each other. Like all the other creatures OutLive had thrown at them this one too was straight out of a nightmare. BANG! BANG! BANG! Bella opened fire at the creature as the others were so taken aback by its nature that all they did was back away, with Mandy even losing her

    Bella stood her ground and covered the other players with more head shots that blew the creature's up like watermelons, as on top of the wooden cabinet Mandy continued to freak out. "Come on Mandy you gotta move!" Den shouted. "Mandy come on, I'm right here. You're not going to do it alone, I'm right here," Sue said; she had even backed up a little more. "I can't," Mandy cried on. "I'm sorry I can't." "Ugh for cyring out loud Mandy, we do not need this right now!" a man watching on his laptop shouted. "I'm sorry do you not see the legion of aliens coming at you, this is so not the time to freak out," a girl watching on her tablet said. "You're going to get everybody killed." "Mandy please. You have to move or we're all going to die, please," Reggie said. "Mandy you can do this," Den said as he softly placed his hand on her thigh. "No I can't. I'm freaking out so bad." "I can see that but you are braver than this. Goodness Mandy you made it to level 8, all those monsters you've

    "Help!" Reggie shouted on as he tried to pull the creature off of him but it was stuck like glue; and not only did its mandibles continue to crush his helmet but its tail began to coil tighter around his neck.The players sprung into action; one of their own was down and they were without a doubt going to do something about it."Mandy, Sue help him, we'll handle them," Den said and they quickly got to it, as the big alien creatures were much closer than they were before."O.k.," Sue said and ran to slide across the counter top and dropped in the aisle that Reggie and Mandy were in, as Bella and Den got up onto the counter tops and began to take as many creatures out as they could.SHRIEK! SHRIEK! SHRIEK! They went as they kept coming at them and BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! They were shot right in their heads and blew up, splashing blood and gut bits all over."It's crushing my helmet and it's choking me, help!" Reggie shouted on; seeing his life flash pretty close in front of his eyes.Sue and

    "Oh heck no, absolutely not, count me so out," a girl watching on her laptop said. "Oh my sweet goodness!" a man watching on his TV shouted as he threw his hands over his head. He knew something was obviously going to happen but he didn't think that it was going to be that extreme. The players stood looking on as the giant tentacles slipped off the walkway and went back into the water as they then returned to the size of the other tentacles and continued waving about. "O.k. it's settled, we're absolutely 100% finding another way," Reggie said and was about to climb back into the vent but Bella stopped him. "Hold it, I'm pretty sure we said no to that," she said. "Look at what is before us Bella, there is no way we're going to make it to the other side without being completely squished and dying." "I know it looks bad but we can't go back." "She's right," Den agreed. "We losing time quick, we have to keep moving." "Moving where? Out there? Are the two of you in the actual high r

    Bella ran on down the walkway with the tentacles splatting behind her. The danglings sacs began to shake as the maggot-like creatures inside started moving about faster; like they were about to burst out."Oh no, those things are about to pop open, that's not good," a boy watching on his phone said"Go! Go! Go!" a girl watching on her tablet shouted.Den, Sue, Reggie and Mandy stood watching on with their hearts in their mouths; she just straight up made a run for it and they were scared for her life; looking on and hoping that she made it.Bella reached the end of the walkway and sliding across the floor she then turned herself around whilst pulling her guns out and faced where she had come from, ready to shot anything that decided to come at her but nothing did. The second she was off the walkway the tentacles went back into the water and the dangling sacks stopped shaking; everything went back to the way it was and they all took a second to relax, giving out the hugest sighs of rel

    It's just business

    Bella’s body was taken down to the morgue and was laid on one of the very steel beds she had seen all of her fellow players lying on after they had been eliminated from the game and were dead. Her skin still had some life in it but in her head was a bullet hole with the bullet still lodged in her brain. Lying there cold and motionless like she wasn’t so full of life just a moment ago. She was absolutely shattered by the deaths of her fellow players; deaths she was made to believe were real, but in the end she found out that none of them were really dead. They had died in the game and that was it. They were all still very much alive and had even been taken home but there she lay dead. She had survived all sorts of monsters in the game only to succumb to a bullet to the head and it was a sight that Sue and Den were never going to forget for as long as they lived. Upstairs Mr. Kingman was in his office seated at his table with Shane standing in front of it with his eyes red and his heart

    Oh my gosh

    Bella made it all the way to the top and opened the door that led out onto the rooftop. It was storming outside and so there was lightning flashing and thunder roaring in the darkened clouds above, and making it out of the door she started crawling herself to the middle of the helipad; literally using the last little bit of strength she had left. “Come on girl, come on!” a group of boys watching on a laptop urged her on as they jumped up and down like popcorn popping in a hot pan. Bella crawled on. Suddenly SPLAT! She fell to her stomach and didn’t just cough out black blood she vomited it, as some of the viewers threw their hands to their heads and the others threw them over their mouths. They all stopped jumping up and down and went so quiet you could hear a pin drop as they just stood there with their hearts in their mouths, pounding like speakers at a night club. Bella had just dropped to the floor of the rooftop and wasn’t moving. She was looking like she wasn’t even breathing.

    Let's finish this thing

    Bella stood as slight defeat came over her face. The other floors were bad but this one was really bad. She miraculously made it through the other floors but she didn’t think she was going to make it through this one. Not only did it have the most creatures on it but she only had her knives to go up against them, there was no way she was going to survive. Also her body went on deteriorating as the virus multiplied inside her even more and so she wasn’t at her best, she had fought a good fight but it was very much beginning to look like that was where her good fight was going to meet its end. Bella was tough, there was no doubt about that but even she wasn’t that tough.“Oh no, oh my gosh,” a girl watching on a laptop with her brother said with her hands over her mouth and with tears beginning to build in her eyes. She was so close she had to make it. She just had to.Her body was on the verge of shutting down but still she kept going. She had tapped into her reserves and those reserve

    That's cheating

    The super soldiers came at her with everything they had. They not only swung their huge fists at her with impressive speed but they grabbed tables and threw them at her and CRASH! They shattered against the walls. Fists and boots came at her but swiftly she dodged them. She knew that the way they took the general down in level 7 was the way she was going to have to take the super soldiers down, by smashing their heads and so that was what she did. She managed to land one of her MMA moves on one of the super soldiers and CRASH! Its head smashed on the floor. Bella then ran towards the other one and stepping on the edge of one of the tables, she gave it a flying kick to its neck. The soldier staggered back and tripping over a chair, CRASH! Its head smashed into the wall and the viewers cheered. With how aggressive they were throwing their punches and the tables at her, it wasn’t certain that she was going to make it but she did, and it made Mr. Kingman want to pull his hair out. He was

    Ugh for crying out loud

    Bella made it into Rex Building, sliding across the shiny marble white floor of the foyer, and turned back to the army of zombies that was behind her. She had her guns up ready to shoot them if they broke through the glass and continued coming at her but they didn’t; all they did was scratch and bang at the glass as they hissed, moaned and snarled on.“Oh my gosh, they’re going to break in and tear her apart,” a boy watching on his phone said.“Move girl, them things is going to break in and feast on your hot self,” a man watching on his TV said. “Move it.”The building foyer was completely empty. There was nothing in it but a front desk and an elevator, and seeing that the zombies could not get into the building Bella then got back up onto her feet and began walking backwards towards the elevator: it was the only place she could go.Bella reached the elevator and pressed the button, and the moment she did, she took a few steps away from it and stood with her arms spread out; pointing

    Game over

    “Players of OutLive, congratulations for making it to the final level, welcome to level 12,” Lora’s voice said and the viewers had butterflies the size of bats flying around in their tummies; with what a roller coaster of emotions the game had had them on they couldn’t wait for it to be over. “The final stretch, oh my gosh I am so freaking nervous,” a man watching on a TV with his brother said. “Bella’s winning this right?” “Oh absolutely,” his brother answered. “If she doesn’t win we’re going to boycott the game.” “Damn right.” They gave each other a high five and listened on. “Oh my gosh the grand finale, so nerve wrecking,” a girl watching on her phone said. “I just know one of them is not going to make it, I just know it.” “In this level you are a two soldiers of an elite tactical unit and your mission is to reach the helipad of the Rex building where you will be extracted from via helicopter by the rest of your unit. If any of you die along the way then you will be eliminated

    “Oh gosh she’s not there, not good,” a girl watching on her laptop with her twin sister said. “You think she’d dead?” her twin sister asked. “She better not be. I’m not even playing, she better not be.” Den looked around the neighbouring booths for her but she wasn’t there. He called out to her too and there was no response. Where was she? Meanwhile with Bella, she continued to tussle with the jester. It knocked the wind out of her a few more times but still she kept getting back up and pressing on; heading towards the Ferris wheel so that they could retrieve the balloon and finish the level. Den looked on for Sue but she was nowhere to be found; it was only when he ran back to the Ferris wheel that he found her being attacked by two clowns. “Sue!” he shouted and he ran to save her; hitting the clowns in their heads with his pole and reducing them to black smoke. “Oh my gosh Sue.” He moved in and hugged her and she hugged him back. “I thought those things had you.” “Almost.

    “Oh my gosh Bella!” Den made it down the tree and called out to her. He then grabbed his pole and started running to her.“No not me her, go help Sue,” she said.“Bella.”“Go help Sue!!”He didn’t want to but he did it anyway. He changed direction and went to help Sue and rescued her from the primate creature with a high strike to the top of its head.Sue groaned. On top of the huge injury she had, she had succumbed to some more.“Ow,” she said.“Are you o.k.?” Den asked.“No, I think I broke a few ribs.”“Crap, come on.”He lifted her off the ground and carried her to the train as Bella, with the help of her bat, managed to pry herself free from the bear trap.“Oh wow she actually freed herself,” a boy watching on a laptop with his girlfriend said. “Aren’t bear traps like super hard to get out of?”“Yes they are,” his girlfriend answered.“Damn.”Bella groaned as she looked down at the mess that was her leg; the teeth of the bear trap pierced all the way into her flesh and she was bl

    The train reached the curtain and began to go through it and because the bouquet of flowers was the right item to be collected from the graveyard section, they were allowed entry into the next one; a shabby deserted desert, still with the full moon shining bright. “From a graveyard to the wild west, man, this game just keeps on giving,” a man watching on his tablet said; eager to see just what the next section had install for the them and the players. He was one of the few viewers who was still experiencing excitement, everyone else had cashed in their excitement for fear. The mailbox was in front of one of the house and they quickly dropped off the train and ran to it. This time it was Sue’s turn. She pulled out the envelope and opened it. “Golden plate,” she read. “Spread out, go,” Den said and they ran off. The town was just made of the one street; five houses on the left and five on the right, and they had to search each one of them. Thank goodness the houses were the size of
