The players walked down the hallway to the door with Ms. Peach Larson in the middle busy texting on her phone. They reached the door and as Den grabbed the handles to get it open it didn't open. He tried it again and still it wasn't opening.

"Hello, do you not know how doors work? Let's go," Ms. Peach Larson said.

"I know how doors work," Den responded.

"Well you could have fooled me."

"O.k. calm down," Bella said.

"Excuse me, what did I say about telling me to calm down," she said turning to Bella.

"Oh no I got it, no one tells you to calm down."

"That's right," Ms. Peach Larson said. "I will not tell you again."

"Goodness you are lovely."

"I know," she said and turned back to the front.

"Yo Den what's going on up there?" Roy asked from the back.

"The door won't open," Den responded.

"Is it busted?" Emily asked.

"No it's locked."

"The heck?" Brian went. "Why would they lock it when they knew we were back here?"

"I have no idea."

"Can you shoot through it?" Mandy asked.

"Yeah I think I can. Everybody stand back," Den said and the players, Ms. Peach Larson included, took a few steps back as Den got his gun out and fired a shot at the lock. BANG! One shot and it was open.

"Alright let's go," Roy said.

"Oh here we go," a boy watching on his phone said.

Den and and Grayson got the double door open and walked out but upon doing so and looking around they froze.

"Whoa," Grayson went.

"Oh wow," Emily said.

"What? What's going on?" Reggie on the left asked.

"What the heck?" Den asked.

"What? For goodness sake what is going on?"

"What is it? What's going on?" a girl watching on her laptop asked.

"They're gone," Den responded.

"Who's gone?" Bella asked.

"Everyone," Den, Grayson and Emily answered at the same time as wondered looks came over their faces.

Den, Grayson and Emily walked further in as the rest followed behind them, Ms. Peach Larson too who had shifted her attention from the screen of her phone to the completely empty club.

The music was still blasting but there was not a single person in sight; not the large crowd of people who were dancing on the dance floor, not the dancers that were dancing in the elevated cages, not the bar tenders that were working at the bar taking orders and serving drinks and not the people who were sitting down and hanging out in the VIP booths around the dance floor. There was not even a sign of the bouncers that let them in, everyone was gone.

"Where the heck did everybody go?" Wendy asked.

"Right," a boy in his dorm room watching on his laptop said and watched on.

"I have no idea," Den answered.

"This place was flooded with people just a few minutes ago," Sue said.

"Did they close up?" Brian asked.

"Yes and they left the music playing, gosh you really are a moron," Ms. Peach Larson said.

"Why are you so aggressive?"

"And why are you such a moron?"

"O.k. I'm going to stop talking again," Brian said.

"Thank you."

"O.k. so what now?" Roy asked.

"Uh duh you escort me out of here."

"But everyone just up and disappeared."

"So?" Ms. Peach Larson asked.

"So something could be up."

"Uh forgetting what this whole thing is, something is definitely up," Bella said.

"That's right, and you have absolutely no idea what's about to hit you," Mr. Kingman standing on his platform said and watched on, with a look in his eyes that was not kind at all.

"O.k. so what do we do?" Wendy asked.

"Oh my gosh, are you all stupid. We go, you get me out of here," Ms. Peach Larson said.

"Ms. Larson please," Den said.

"Let's go now."

"We have to hold up first."

"Hold up for what?" Ms. Peach Larson asked.

"To make sure the place is secure."

"It's fine, perfect even. There's no one here to stress me with pictures or autographs so let's go."

"Just hold on for a second," Den said.

"Ugh!"

"Excuse you princess we have to ensure your safety," Bella said.

"Was I talking to you?" she turned to her and asked.

"No you weren't but when you talk to one of us like that you talk to all of us. It's our job to make sure you are escorted out of here safe and sound and so if anything happens to you then we've failed and we can't have that because there is a lot riding on this and your spoiled brat attitude is not going to ruin it for us so for the sake of living to be a spoiled brat another day would you please shut up and let us do our job." Ms. Peach Larson gave out a quiet gasp with her eyes all the way widened; no one had ever talked to her like that before. She wanted to say something back at her but was rendered speechless; all she did was just grunt to herself and look away folding her arms.

"Oh wow," Brian said to himself smiling.

"Yes, finally she's been put in her place, such a twat," a girl watching on her laptop said.

"Alright Mr. Team Captain what's the plan?" Roy asked.

"We stick to the mission, we get her out of here," Den responded.

"O.k.," Mandy said.

"We leave the same way we came but obviously something's about to go down so I want a tight circle around her with all angles covered."

"Done," Mark responded.

"Alright, weapons out, let's move." Each one got their weapons out and the players moved forward; walking down the space in between the dance floor and the VIP booths cto the door, with the players forming a tight circle around Ms. Peach Larson who couldn't care less what was going on and was busy liking photos of her friends on her social media feed.

Just then they heard a strange sound echo in the room and each one came to a stop and quickly began to look around, Ms. Peach Larson too. It was strange deep clicking sound.

"What the heck was that?" Wendy asked.

"What was that?" a boy in his dorm room watching on his desktop asked and watched on.

"Whatever it was," Sue said and cocked her gun.

"It's not good," Bella said.

"Seriously what was that?" Reggie asked, with his voice a little shaky and just then the same sound went again, this time coming from another corner and echoing out to the rest of the room.

"There it goes again," Den said as they all turned their heads to the corner in which the sound came from; with him even shining the torch of his gun into it. "Clear, there's nothing there."

"Seriously guys what is that?" Reggie asked, with his voice more shaky than it was before.

"Everyone scan your twelve now," Den said and the players got their guns up and used the torches on their guns to check the areas in front of them.

"Clear," they all said one after the other. Just then the sound went again, coming from another corner and echoing out to the rest of the room.

"Uh not clear, what is making that sound and where is it?" Brian asked.

"It came from over there," Emily said, shining the torch of her gun at the very corner.

"There's nothing there. It's clear," Grayson said, also pointing the torch of his gun there.

"Then where is it? And what the heck is it?" Brian asked as the players went on checking the areas in front of them to make sure they really were clear. Just then a strange feeling came over Bella and she looked up; and seeing what was above them, a cold shiver ran down her spine.

"I found where that sound is coming from, what they are . . . I'm not so sure," Bella said.

"What?" Reggie asked looking around. "Where?" They all turned to her and she shone the torch of one of her guns to where the thing was and seeing it they all broke out into a cold sweat.

"Oh my gosh," Sue said.

"Oh-my-gosh," Den said as they looked on. Ms. Peach Larson looked up too and when she saw what was up there she screamed; she had no idea what the thing was and it seriously freaked her out.

Above them was a thing that looked liked a hive but was white and the size of a big car; sitting high up just beneath the high ceiling of the club. And that wasn't the only wrong thing in the picture; at the bottom of the hive thing was a big opening and right below it was a strange creature.

"What the-what the heck is that?" Reggie asked taking a step back.

"Oh my gosh," Emily said as just then the creature opened its mouth and the sound they had been hearing echoing throughout the room came out. It was the thing that had been making those sounds and it was a sight to give anyone nightmares.

"What is that?" Roy asked, as each one had the torches of their guns flashed at it.

"Oh my gosh what the heck is that thing?" a boy watching on his laptop with his friend asked.

"I have no idea man," his friend responded. "It looks like some freaking alien thing."

It was a spider-like creature dark grey in colour and the size of a large pig with a head like a preying mantis and a mouth like a vampire squid, with its tentacles moving about and dripping slime.

"The eff is that?" Wendy asked.

"Like I said . . . Not good," Bella said and just then the creature leaped off the wall towards them; shrieking and with its tentacles spread all the way out revealing its round mouth and three sets of razor sharp teeth. Reggie screamed taking a few more steps back as the rest shot opened fire at it and blew it up; splashing green slimy blood and bits of its flesh everywhere, a little on them too and Ms. Peach Larson also.

"Oh goodness watch her flip," a girl watching on her phone said.

Ms. Peach Larson screamed; the creatures blood splashed on her clothes and its bits of flesh fell into her hair.

"Iew! Iew! Iew! You stupid idiots," she shouted. "You just got that freaking thing's insides all over me! Ah!"

"Ms. Larson could you please keep your voice down," Den said.

"You shut your mouth! Look at me. This outfit was custom made and you just got freaking creature blood all over it."

"Don't forget the fleshy bits, you got some of them in your hair," Bella said and she screamed shaking her head trying to get them off and to the floor they fell and seeing how much was in her hair she screamed again.

"Ms. Larson please."

"Shut up! You have ruined my outfit and my hair."

"Yeah but we just saved your life," Sue said.

"Right, that thing was heading straight for you," Brian said.

"Excuse you, you are not allowed to speak around me ever again," Ms. Peach Larson said.

"Oh come on."

"Look at me, I'm a mess. First you keep me waiting and now this, you are all so fired. So fired."

"Ms. Larson please keep your voice down," Den said.

"Don't tell me what to do."

"Whoa princess take a chill pill," Bella said.

"What did I just say?"

"Uh guys," Grayson said, still with his gun pointed at the hive thing.

"What?" Den asked.

"We have a problem," he said and when they all looked back up they gasped. There were more of the creatures; just there standing on the wall eyeing them ready to pounce.

"Oh my gosh," Reggie said.

The creatures shrieked spreading their tentacles out; leaping off the wall and onto the floor to begin running at the players whilst others leaped directly off the wall and headed straight down towards them.

"Ugh crap, not good," a boy watching on his tablet said.

There were seven creatures and they were headed straight for the players.

    "Shoot 'em!" Den shouted and BANG! BANG! BANG! The players took the creatures out. The ones mid-air too splashing more blood and fleshy bits everywhere and on Ms. Peach Larson again who screamed her head off."Are you kidding me? Are you effing kidding me!" she shouted. If her head didn't explode in the next minute it would be a miracle because she was fuming. "What part of this outfit is custom made do you not understand! What, are you retarded?""Seriously, we just saved your life . . . Again," Roy said."You ruined my outfit.""Saved your life.""Ugh! Idiots!

    Each hive needed twenty-five shots and when those shots had been fired, most of them coming from Bella's gun, the hives began to blow up. And when they were all taken out, the four then re-joined the others in shooting the last of the creatures and in no time they had managed to kill all of them.Just then the door they used on their way in unlocked and swung open."Ay how about that?

    "How much did you get paid to take her out?" Mr. Kingman asked; seeing how tortured she already was and wanting to torture her some more."I'm not doing this," Bella said standing up and wiped her tears away as she headed for the door."Where are you going Ms. Knight?" All the henchmen standing in the corners pulled their guns out and pointed them at her and she stopped. "I don't believe we were done talking."She turned to him. "I'm not going to have this conversation with you.""Yes you are.""No I'm not.""Ay! Sit your ass back down on that chair or I am going to have my boys bring in your lover and shoot him in the head.

    "Seriously," Reggie said; looking like he was going to jump right out of his own skin. "You're going to say that now with us in the water.""No, no, I'm not even trying to scare anyone I'm just saying what I heard, I heard something moving in the water," Mark said. "Didn't you hear it?""No I didn't hear anything," Mandy answered, she was the one walking closest to him."Well I heard something.""Don't worry man I heard it too, saw something in there too. There is definitely something in there," a boy watching on his laptop said."O.k. well I'm sure it was nothing, let's keep moving," Den said and they moved on."Nothing? Are you high?

    "Oh my gosh he's dead. Mark's dead," Hannah said with tears in her eyes. He was there and alive less than a minute ago and now he was gone. And not just, he just had his head completely eaten up by some freakish fish creature."Ah!" Emily screamed pointing forward and when they all looked to where she was pointing ice cold shivers ran down their spines."Oh my gosh," Den said; with eyes all the way widened like he had seen a ghost; the others too as they looked on at the sight before them, a sight that had them instantly fearing for their lives."What?

    The players reached the elevator and Den pressed the button and unlike the other one this one actually worked. The elevator was on deck 5 and began to come down; with each one looking at the display giving out quiet sighs of relief. Finally something was going their way.The elevator reached deck 3 and dinged open."Alright let's go," Den said."Hold up," Bella said."Oh my gosh what now?""Look at the capacity, it says 5 people only, which means only 5 of us can ride it at a time.""5?

    More water poured in with more creatures in it. They leaped out at them but the players held their on; except Reggie who was still down and went on hiding. "The room is filling up, what's the plan?" Emily asked."Up," Den answered and they all looked up. "The lights, everyone get up onto the lights, quickly!"There were hanging lights made of a thick wooden frame right above them that was about a meter long and they all began to climd up onto them; all except Reggie who was still cowered by the table, shaking even like he was out in the cold."Bro what the heck? Get up," a boy watching on his laptop said."Reggie! Get up," Bella shouted."No," Reggie responded."Reggie!""Reggie get your ass up onto the light now!"

    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.

    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.

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
