Okay bro listen—
I was straight up one blink away from meeting my ancestors. I ain't even exaggerating. This whole Wraith Survival thing? It's just torture but with extra steps and no snacks.
I've been in this glowing-ass bubble for like 14 hours now. FOURTEEN.
And there's still 10 hours left, like bro, be for real.
No phone.
No food.
No water.
No one to cry to.
Just me and this crusty breathing noise from the Wraith like it's trying to drop a horror album in the dark.
Every time my eyes start to droop, this dude just lets out a nasty HHRRGGHH, like it wants to audition for a horror movie.
And the system? Not helping.
[SYSTEM PING]
Mental Stability: 12%
Energy: 3%
Time Left to Survive: 10:01:32
I saw that 12% and actually laughed, like some villain arc just unlocked.
Then I realized—nah bro, I'm not in a villain arc. I'm in a delulu arc.
I start talking to the Wraith like it's my roommate.
"So like… you good, bro?"
"You ever cry for no reason or is that just me?"
"If I die, can you delete my browser history?"
No response.
I try doing jumping jacks. Sit-ups. I even fake-walked like I'm in a montage scene, just to keep my brain from hitting sleep mode.
Then I start beatboxing outta nowhere:
"Tch tch doom—can't sleep in this room—Wraith's a vibe-killer—mental stability goin' boom—"
And then I swear—the Wraith chuckled.
Like a low-budget villain chuckle.
I froze. Thought I imagined it.
But then…
[BONUS OBJECTIVE COMPLETED]
Reward: Soul Mirror (x1)
This janky-looking mirror floats down from the ceiling. I peek into it…
And what do I see?
Me.
But like... a cursed version. All dark and hollow-eyed like I haven't slept since birth.
Then the Wraith speaks, with that crusty smoker voice:
WRAITH: "You're funnier than the last one."
ME: "Bro… there was a last one??"
WRAITH: "He danced. You joked. You passed."
ME: "So I passed by being a clown??"
WRAITH: "I like honesty."
Then BOOM. It disappears.
Light comes back.
Timer hits zero.
Closet's empty again.
Fan turns back on like nothing happened.
And me?
I just flop backwards like a broken NPC.
Can't even feel my soul anymore.
But of course—right before I black out:
WRAITH SURVIVAL: COMPLETED
DEBT EXTENDED: +7 DAYS
NEXT COLLECTOR INCOMING: "THE WHISPER"
Tip: Don't listen.
I just groaned, rolled over, and whispered, "Same time tomorrow?" before passing out like I got patched into a glitch.
