Hello everyone!!! This is the sneak peak for a book I'm writing called "The Game." Unlike my other stories, this one doesn't have a prologue. So I'm gonna instead give you a little sneak peak of somewhere in the middle of Chapter One!! ┈ _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_┈ Not even an hour had passed when a piercing sound cut through the silence, like the bell one would ring to alert a bellhop in a hotel. Confused, Rayne looked around the empty space for the source. That’s when it hit them. Literally. Their body thunked against the plastic as something large and heavy fell on top of them. Pain laced through their body and they let out a muffled sound that probably would have been at least 5 swears. The object on top of them shifted and made a weird groaning sound as it moved off of them. “Oh… my gosh! I’m so sorry!” The object, which from the voice Rayne determined was a girl, screamed. “I didn’t mean to… fall on you?” Rayne sighed and heaved themselves off the ground. “Yeah, no, it’s alright.” They groaned and stretched their sore muscles. The girl that fell on them was short, with fluffy black hair tied in a ponytail. Her skin was practically white, reflecting the light the plastic was emanating. She was now pacing in a circle, tears in her eyes, hands waving around with her bracelets creating the only sound in the silence around them. “This can’t be happening… What- I was just- Where are we?” She turned to Rayne, snot dribbling down her soft features. Rayne groaned internally. They had dealt with their fair share of overly emotional girls. “No clue, that’s what I’ve been trying to figure out.” She looked at them confused. “What? How? Have you tried leaving?” “Four times. We can’t leave this stupid dance tile. Every time I’ve tried, I get teleported back to the same spot.” They shrugged as they sat back down on the plastic. It was cold despite genuinely being a giant light bulb. The girl looked at Rayne skeptically. “Right, and I’m supposed to believe you?” They shrugged again. She just grunted in frustration, wiped her eyes, and tried storming off the plastic. In a whir of black and neon colors, the girl teleported right back in front of Rayne. They wore an expression that read ‘I told you so’. “Don’t give me that look!” She crossed her arms and sat down on the plastic across from Rayne. ┈ _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_┈ Like what you read?
