Creeper Prototype

Before Mine craft Alpha was released, during bug testing. Notch came up with the creeper. This isn't the creeper that you see today, it was scarier. It looked like a mutated man with 2 bloody back legs. He published the game soon after. Kids everywhere loved the game. Some said the creeper was cursed. One kid was playing the game once. He was convinced that creepers were haunted, he researched into the game's files. He messed up his files. He logged back on, the creepers looked even creepier than usual. There heads were melting off flesh and made a horrible crying in pain noise when they exploded. He was really freaked out. He swore he heard the same crying noises outside in the woods. Every time a creeper exploded, the crying got louder and more realistic. Soon it got to the point where the crying had turned into horrified screaming, impossible for a video game to re create. The kid soon committed suicide due to the screeching noise in his head. No more is known about the creeper prototype. It was changed to the modern creeper that you now know today, because of that horrible accident.

Luigi's Mansion (Our Version)

The people in this story are real people, but the stories are fake. No rude comments please.

Me and my friend Angel love to play games at my house. One day we were looking for a game to play in my closet, I found my old Nintendo Game Cube buried under tons of rubbish in the closet. I also pulled out my Luigi's Mansion game. He loved to play that as a kid so we put it in the console and turned on the game. We selected file 1 and Luigi spawned in the kitchen instead of the foyer. The boss ghost was there and he looked a little creepier than I remember. He had a bloody shirt and a horrified face. I pointed my flashlight at him and he threw a plate at Luigi's head. It sliced the side of Luigi's head and he fell over, brain matter spilling out of his head. I re spawned in the kitchen again, I killed the boss and walked out into the hallway. One of the picture frames had turned into a picture of Luigi playing with a daisy, and skipping happily. Nothing scary here. I walked into the music room and activated the instruments and the music started playing. The game started to get choppy, and the music slowed. I began to hear Mario screaming and King Boo laughing in the back ground. I immediately left the room and saw the picture of Luigi again. This time his body was decaying and his eye was hanging out of his bleeding socket.  Everything was normal until I got to the balcony. I defeated Boolosus and activated the blackout. It was MUCH darker than normal. I walked back into the hallway with the picture. Luigi's body was decaying even more,      

it looked like a fungus was growing on his flesh dripping off of his face. Mario began screaming again. King boo started laughing slowly after. It began getting louder. I turned off the game cube. The sound went on. I put my ear up to the speakers, the sound wasn't coming from the game cube or the TV. It was coming from my closet. Me and Angel were shaking with terror as I slowly opened the closet. I saw the picture hanging up on the wall, Luigi's body was even more decomposed. His head was turned back with a horrified face, his eye sockets bleeding rapidly and brain matter was dripping out the side of his head. A piece of paper was stuck to the frame. I picked it up and read it. All it had were 2 short words, "Your next!"

Like it? Please leave in the comments what creepy pasta we should do next.

The Screeching Ghost Pokemon

I look out my window. It's raining. Fitting. Today is the five year anniversary of the incident. My Pokemon sense my sadness, and as they pop out of their pokeballs, I've already soaked the pillow with my tears. Manectric, Tentacruel, Lilligant, Ninetales and Flygon all tried to cheer me up. But they all know that this is that one day where nothing can make me happy.

I cried all day long, with Tentacruel continuing to bring me water. I thank him over and over, but I still cry. Flygon tries to sing using it's wings, but I ask him to stop. Lilligant brings me flowers. I used them as some comfort, but not enough. Ninetales keeps my warm with her body heat. Manectric does tricks with Shockwave, but He's too sad to do much himself.

yes, I used to be a Pokemon Trainer, and a very good one to. I had six badges from the Delta Region, a beautiful and Diverse region. But rated as the most dangerous. I was great at contests too. My team each had their own talents. But I gave it all up. The incident shattered me into powder. Without her, I couldn't go on. I went into hiding, in the remote Crater Town. I left my family and friends. I just kept my Battle Scanner, my Badges, and my Ribbons.

My name is Daron. No last name. I won't tell you, so don't ask. I get around by selling Trainer Items I find in a nearby cave. My only friend Is the local cafe owner. He knows my past. I go there every few days. I was luck Enough to get this old cobblestone and wood house on the edge of town. Little rent works perfectly.

Eventually, I cry myself unconscious. The next day, my Flygon gets my by nudging me. I get out of bed, clean myself up, take a shower, and head for the cafe for breakfast. As you can imagine, I'm starving. I see Charles, the cafe manager.

Charles:I didn't see you yesterday. I assumed it was the anniversary.

Daron:I'm going to say yes. And you'll say I have to stop living in the past.

Charles:You know me well. I guess you just want me to drop it.

I nodded. I ordered a four egg omelet, a salad, and some berries. Some for me, and some for my Pokemon. See, I found out that there are ways to make berries stomachable for humans. It's complicated, so I wont go over it. I also leaved Charles a tip, but I don't think you could call it that. Tips don't tend to be over 200% the actual price. I had quite a bit of extra cash anyway. I walked outside for breakfast.

After eating everything, things go from normal post-tragic life to abnormal post tragic life.

???:Help! Please! Somebody help!

I turned in the direction of the scream. I first saw a girl about sixteen, my age. She had red hair, a grey jacket, a shirt that I was sure was a mix of bloodred and white (giving it the oddest shade of pink), a white pair of sweatpants, and some white running shoes. Then there was the noticeable details. Her hair was tipped with hot pink marks, and her white glove and shoes had pink hearts on them. The next were the small anime style bat wings that were part of her clothing at the wrists and neck.

I quickly saw what had caused her to scream for help. She was being chased by a Ghost Pokemon. I whipped out my Battle Scanner. I pressed some of the buttons and identified the pursuer as Dusknoir, at Level 48. I then saw a Houndoom pop out. Level 43. It then used its Flamethrower, shooting deadly flames at the girl.

Everyone was backing away. Facepalm. These chickens must not be Pokemon Trainers.

Daron:GO! TENTACRUEL! GO! FLYGON!

The two Pokemon charged forth. They were some of my strongest. I ordered Tentacruel to attack with Hydro Pump. That stopped Houndoom. Flygon used Dragon Breath at Dusknoir. That was lucky to paralyze it. I ordered an Iron Tail from Flygon, and finished Dusknoir with the Trapping Sand Tomb. As it fainted, It let out an ear piercing screech. I felt as my left ear bled a little.

The girl ran over to me.

???:Thanks *huff*.

Daron:Your welcome. Do you know why those Pokemon were chasing you?

???:No *huff*.

I looked behind her and saw a cloaked figure with a Murkrow-Black mask. Speaking of which, he sent out Honchkrow.

Daron:What the H*** is your problem!

Masked Man:Honchkrow! Air Slash!

The attack was aimed at the girl. Manectric jumped in the way, resisting the attack. Manectric countered with its powerful thunder. I knew this battle might get rough, so I told the girl to get behind me.

???:Okay....

The masked man had already healed Dusknoir and Houndoom.

Masked Man:Give me the the girl.....

Daron:No. You obviously want to kill her. No one would attack a human like that as a joke.

Masked Man:Dusknoir, Houndoom, Honchkrow. Attack! Get the girl!

I was expecting a triple battle, but that wasn't going to happen. My three fighters would continue to attack, but they could only deal half the damage they were taking. They had to defend the girl from the Masked Mans Pokemon. That psychopath attacked her instead of my Pokemon.

Daron:Flygon! Draco Meteor!

The attack stirred up the dirt on the battlefield, and the smoke from the meteors provided the perfect distraction to escape.

Daron:Quick! Flygon! Get us outta here!

Flygon picked both me and the girl up. We were heading north. I looked at the girl. She was near paralyzed with fear.

Daron:Are you okay?

She just nodded her head.

Daron:By the way, My name is Daron. What's yours?

She shook her head as to wake herself up.

???:I..I..I'm not sure! I just woke up, wearing these clothes, and after wandering for a bit, I was attacked by that Masked Man.

Daron:Try to think of your name.

???:Um......Maxy....No......Mina......Um......

She bit her thumb. She was apparently frustrated. She then lit up.

???:I think it was Arxi.

That name sounded familiar, but I knew I NEVER heard it before.

We finished our flight over a forest. Flygon was still as fast as it was when it evolved. We came out on Cross path. My choices for escape were towards Graphic City, a town famed for being the capital of Delta and for its 2 Pokemon Gyms. The other was across Silver Desert. Although the desert was no problem, but beyond it was the Lonely Path, were only Trainers who beat the Elite Four were allowed. I only had six badges, so that meant certain death, especially without my strongest team member.

Daron:Flygon, turn right.

We were now headed for Graphic City. I looked at Flygon. He was far too tired to carry us all the way.

Daron:Flygon, you can land us over there.

We landed on a rocky outcropping. I looked at Arxi. She was looking very nervous. I knew what she was thinking. She had heavy amnesia, she was being hunted by someone with deadly powerful Pokemon, and the only person she could trust was some random trainer, now miles from anyone else.

Frankly, I didn't blame her.

We started walking. I reatrieved Flygon. Daron:Are You okay?

Arxi:No.......

Daron:You have perfect reasons to be scared. But I need to know:Other than some psychopathic hypocrit trying to make an opposition to your fashion statement, who could be chasing you.

Arxi immedietly blushed and got real nervous, with a loud eep.

Arxi:You....think my clothes are silly?

Daron:Actually, I like it. Besides, people over other Regions make some pretty tacky fashoin statements. Your clothes at least make you look like you fit in.

She calmed down. She seemed not to mind her clothes now.

Arxi:What a relief.

I knew we had to keep moving. Crater Town didn't have a Gym Leader, but Graphic City had 2. There weren't the toughest, but they had to do. A Gym Leader was supposed to deal with murderous psychopaths.

I just HAD to think that.

The trees ahead of us were uprooted and blown like missles in every direction. I instinctivly grabbed Ninetales and Lilligant's pokeballs (they had not taken any damage yet). And looked up. I saw the Masked Man and a Marowak and riding on a Jellicant. I started seeing a theme with his Pokemon. They all had something to to with death.

Masked Man:Marowak! Get the girl. Bone Club!

Arxi:What do you want with me?!

I wasn't going to risk waiting for the answer.

Daron:GO! Lilligant! GO Ninetales!

The to pokemon popped from their pokeballs. They wasted no time protecting me and Arxi. Marowak was knocked away by Lilligant's Energy Ball.

Ninetail was about to fire a Shadow Ball at the Masked Man but I stopped her.

Daron:No Ninetales! You'll kill that man if you knock out Jellicent! Masked Man:Jellicant! Hydro Pump!

OH CRUD!

Daron:LILLIGANT! Quiver Dance and Energy Ball! NOW

Lilligant Did waht she was told and the force of Energy Ball was enough to stop Hydro Pump.

I didn't want to kill that man. I didn't want anyone to die after the incident. This was a very bad situation. It then got worse when Jellicent went charging at Arxi. I waited not a second more than when Jellicent was close to the Ground.

Daron:SHADOW BALL!

Shadow Ball went right into the Masked Man's Jellicent. It fainted, going to the ground, giving off an ear trolling scream. But even when down a pokemon, the Masked Man was persistant.

Masked Man:Marowak! Bonemerang!

I looked around to see Arxi about to be impaled by Marowak's Bonemerang. However, Lilligant had some pretty quick thinking. She used her speed boost from Quiver Dance to block the attack.

Daron:Mega Drain!

Lilligant drained Marowak's strength, knocking it out.

I grabbed Arxi's hand.

Daron:Let's GO!

The Masked man retreived his Pokemon.

PERFECT!

Daron:Ninetales! Destroy the switches!

Ninetales jumped right at the Masked Man, and quickly crushed the switches on the assailants six Pokeballs. YES! Now he couldn't call out his Pokemon. This was a forbiddon tactic in trainer battles world wide, minus life and death situations.

Considering that he was most likely being hunted by the police, and the switches could only be repaired at a Pokemon Center or through special devices, this would buy us a lot of time!

After running for what seemed like two miles, we reached an area with little undergrowth, but we couldn't be spotted from above.

Daron:It's safe here to rest.

Arxi:*pant* Good... *pant*.

Arxi sat down. I noticed something while we were running that I kept to my self. It seemed that she...had trouble walking, like she wasn't used to it. It seemed not to be an issue though, so I decided to keep it to myself.

Daron:Everyone! Come on out!

I called out everyone. If this guy wasn't going to give up, I needed to heal my team. I pulled out my many Sitrus and Leppa Berries. While my team munched away, I collected some logs and had Ninetales set them ablaze to create a cooking fire. I decided to cook some berries so me and Arxi could eat them.

Arxi:Hey what's that?

She pointed to one of my 4 spiky Tamato Berries. That made a really nice broth when you boiled it for 20 minutes with a Cheri Berry. I wouldn't dare to eat one whole. Way too spicy.

Daron:That's a Tamato Berry.

Arxi:It looks tasty.

Daron:It'll set your mouth on fire, but try it if your brave enough.

She, to my surprise, ate the Berry. I didn't think it was humanly possible, but she seemed to like it.

Daron:Are......you....okay?

Arxi:Ya. It tasted nice.

Must have a high tolerance for spicy food. I noticed my Pokemon also seemed to like her. She must be really fond of Pokemon. I even asked her if she was.

Arxi:I'm not sure, they just seem to like me. So, are you a Pokemon Trainer?

Daron:Once. About five years ago. But I gave up after an accident.

It seemed Arxi knew it would be hard for me to discuss, so she dropped it. I did however tell Arxi about my Pokemon, and the story of how I got them. Manectric was my first caught, back when he was an Electrike. I caught Lilligant in Pyrite Forest. Flygon was captured at the Silver Desert. Ninetales was found in the Obsidian Mountains, and Tentacruel was found in a lake.

Later, I finished the soup. I served most to Arxi,and what was left to me. I wasn't too hungry after breakfast.

Arxi:This is good!

Daron:Thanks. It took me 6 weeks to get it right.

When we finished up, We decided to walk through the Forest to Graphic City.

Daron:When we get to Graphic City, we need to get you different clothing.

Arxi:What!

Daron:With your clothes, that masked man will spot you from a mile away. We'll also need to dye your hair.

I noticed she looked very worried.

Daron:Don't worry. The dye washes out with ease.

She looked less worried.

Nothing much happened till we got to Graphic City. At that point, we had spent a day walking, and reached the city at 22:00 (10:00 PM). We got a hotel (at Trainers discount) and I gave Arxi the bed. I liked the floor anyway.

Arxi:Are you okay on the floor.

Daron:Just Peachy! I used to sleep on rocks all the time as Trainer.

She seemed to trust me enough to fall asleep right away.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

5 Years Ago

Daron:Well, time to get my first pokemon. I can't wait.

This was Daron five years ago on the First Day of his Journey. His hometown of Riverstone would give its new trainers a pokemon caught from the local cave systems. Daron had wanted to be a Trainers his whole life. This was a very exciting day.

Members of the local Trainer association was waiting for him.

Trainer:You must be Daron.

Daron:That's me.

Trainer:We have a surprise for you. Your uncle caught this Pokemon for you.

Daron:What Pokemon is it?

Daron received his starter, and together, they conquered 6 gyms, and even won some Contests. He was a great trainer, and he was a great Coordinater. But, one day.....

The Incident happened.

Nurse:I'm sorry. Your Friend is not going to make it.

The shock of the incident nearly killed him.

It is unknown who his friend was, as Daron dissapeared. He went to Crater Town, and he lost contact with his family.

Poor Daron was dreaming this.

* * * * * * * * * * * *

Next Morning:

Let's see the story from Arxi's view

I think something's tickling my nose. Something smells nice. I don't wanna get up though. I should just turnover.

BBBBBZZZZAAAATTTTTTT

Arxi:EEEEEEEEEEPPPPPP!!!!

I felt an electric shock go through my body. It really hurt. I woke up to see Lilligant slap Manectric in the face. Ninetales came over to me and pointed a paw towards a nearby tree just out the window. I saw Daron out the window. He looked like, he was....crying? I walked over to the window.

Arxi:Are you, okay?

He got down from the tree next to me.

Daron:Yes. I see that Manectric woke you up the hard way.

Arxi:How did you kno.....

Daron:Your hair is a mess.

He handed a silver device. I saw my reflection. I most likely turned as red as the berry I ate yesterday.

Arxi:EEEEKKK! My hair is standing on its ends!

Daron:We needed to rearange your hair anyway. Lilligant!

His Lilligant handed him a strange bottle.

Arxi:What's that?

Daron:Homemade hair Dye. Take a shower. Then we'll put this on, and then get you some new clothes.

Let's skip to the part were Daron dyes my hair. Okay?

Daron put the Dye in my hair, and told me to wait twenty minutes. He left Lilligant and Tentacruel with me, and went to cook some berries at the hotel kitchen. He came back 18 minutes later with a nice looking cooked berry.

I wasn't really hungry. But I wanted to figure out who I was.

Daron:That's strange.

Arxi:What?

I was worried. It felt like two hours since he put the dye in. He gave me the thing he was using for a mirror. My hair was completely blond. I started to get all red, but then Daron pointed to the ends were my hair were still pink.

Daron:That's odd. I made sure to get the ends.

Arxi:I guess we can keep them that way.

Daron:We should get some new clothes for you. I know a place were we can find a jacket just like this. Minus the anime wings.

We walked to a store and sure enough, Daron got me a featureless Jacket and shirt the same as mine but black and grey. He then got me some featureless shoes and short skirt. Finally, he showed me that my jacket had a hood.

Daron:You'd be very surprised how these minor details can make a person look different.

Arxi:I just hope that guy who was chasing us gets caught. I hate these clothes.

Daron:Okay. Lets stop by the Pokemon Center. I need to heal my team. If this guy starts to chase us again, I'll need to be at 100%.

I wanted to find out who I was, so I need help. Daron seemed like the perfect person to help me. I didn't like these new clothes, but I knew Daron was right. Besides, If it wasn't for him, I would be dead now.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I looked at Arxi. She looked unhappy with her new clothes. I wish I could let her wear her old clothes, but until the Masked Man was caught. We were now on Flygon, and we were flying towards northern Delta.

Arxi:So, what's the plan?

Daron:I'm going to northern Delta. I think he won't find us there.

Arxi:I just want to find out who I am.

Daron:I asked around, but noone said they knew you. I eventually gave your picture to the police, and they said they would call me when they found out who you were.

Arxi:I guess that makes me feel better.

???:SHADOW BALL!

I saw a Shadow Ball nearly knock Flygon out of the sky, but we evaded with Fly.

Arxi:Will this guy ever give up?!

I saw the masked man on his Jellicent. His Dusknoir was floating next to him. I sent out Lilligant. She sat on Flygon's neck.

Daron:Flygon! Dragonbreath! Lilligant, Energy Ball!

The to attacks hit Dusknoir, and knocked it out. Again, it gave out an ear peircing shreik. I thought I was going to vomit it was so terrible sounding. I didn't want it to come to this, but I might have to knock out his Jellicent. But, that may kill him. But, If Jellicent used an Ice attack, I'd have no choice.....

Just my ****ing wonderous luck!

Masked Man:Make sure she dosen't escape! Blizzard!

I had no choice. I sent Ninetales in mid air.

Daron:SHADOW BALL!

Ninetales gracefully fired Shadow Ball at Jellicent, knocking it out of midair. Flygon caught Ninetails, and I retreated my firefox and Lilligant.

Masked Man:YOU WON'T ESCAPE!

Jellicent gave out a shreik far worse than the ones before it. I vomited right of Flygon. It hurt so bad. I just hope he won't get up after that.

Arxi:Oh my god! Are you okay!

Daron:Don't.......Worry.............What about you. Didn't you hear the scream?

Arxi just looked scared.

Arxi:Ya but.... It didn't hurt like it hurt you.

Daron:Let's just hope that the Masked Man dosen't get up again.

I looked down. I had no choice.

Daron:FLYGON! DRACO METEOR!!!

Flygon's attack created a huge shockwave on the ground, causing nearby rocks and trees to collapse created a barrier around where the Masked Man had fallen. I didn't think he'd get up after that.

Flygon landed. He wasn't used to carrying four entities. I looked at Arxi. She was looking at the rubble. She knew, I knew, that this wasn't it.

Daron:Let's go. I don't want to find out that this guy is still walking the hard way.

Arxi:Okay.......I just.

We were already walking.

Daron:What?

Arxi:I think this guy knows who I am.

Daron:That might be true. But whoever he is, I do not want to risk asking.

Arxi:Let's get to the next town.

Well, everything was okay till we got to Copper City. We got a hotel at Trainer discount. We hoped that being here would help mask our presence. But, being here in this city was a problem for me alone. Why

I was going to challenge the Gym before the incident.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Later that night. Arxi's perspective.

Daron seemed like he was having a hard time with something. He was just outside on a small balcony in the rain. Daron was just looking out at the sky. I was almost scared he'd get struck by lightning.

Arxi:Daron?

He turned around. He was crying. For a long time. His pokeballs weren't at his chest. I looked around quickly to see that they were on the desk.

Arxi:Daron. Please tell me what's wrong.

Daron:You don't need to know.

That was it. I wanted to know. He has enough on his hands. I brought him kilometers from his home, gotten him involved in a problem he had nothing to do with, and got him to think like a trainer, something I know he didn't want to do.

Arxi:Tell ME!

Daron:No.

He turned away and sat on a chair, burying his face in his hands.

Daron:I don't want to drag you into the suicidal deppression I've had for five years.

I put my hand on his shoulder. He was still crying. I saw his hands start to get drenched in tears. Whatever the incident was that made him quit being a trainer, it must be tearing him apart from the inside. I had to help. I did owe him anyway.

I gave him a hug. He stopped crying and looked up at me. I had his attention. I just hoped I could convince him. I was lucky. He grabbed his pokeballs and let his team out.

Daron:All right Arxi. I'll tell you.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Daron's veiw.

How I lost her was a story only I, my team, and Charles knew. I told it to noone. It made me give up being a Trainer. It made me leave my family. I didn't want any reminders.

Daron:Sit down Arxi.

I got her a chair. She sat down. So did my team. I got a chair myself. I braced myself for my own heartwrenching story.

Daron:My first Pokemon was a gift from my uncle. She was a rare Pokemon only found late at night in the River Caves under my town. A Misdreavus in fact. I named her Meinine. We were best friends. With her help, I caught the rest of my team and six gym badges. She even helped with my Contest Appeals. We were unstoppable together. We were closer than the rest of my pokemon. She would enter my dreams. She would wake me up by biting my hair and pulling back. She evolved in Mismagius, and won my sixth badge with little effort.

My voice stopped. It was the part that haunted me every night.

Daron:We were exploring the Aerial Cave. It was a wind labyrinth, and there were pretty powerful pokemon there. I was walking through with Meinine at my side. We were walking through the howling wind when Meinine tugged my hair in one direction. She urged me to looked over there, and I saw a few figures. I saw 2 Haunters and a Dusclops.

I ordered a Shadow Ball! That took out a Haunter. The others fired Shadow Balls at me. Meinine took it. I ordered a Calm Mind and some Shadow Balls. The Shadow Balls struck down the Haunter and Chandelure. I decided to go on.

We continued to get attacked by Ghost Pokemon. I started to get worried that Meinine wouldn't be able to handle it. We moved quickly. Meinine took down over twenty Pokemon. I was starting to get worried. We should have passed the exit. I checked my Battle Scanner. The only thing was static. Now I was scared. We then heard a noise. It sounded like a malicious groan. I ordered Mismagius to use Inferno on in the direction of the noise. We heard a scream of pain, and saw what we hit was a Gengar. The flames died, and it started using Curse. Meinine was cursed. Then the Gengar shot a Shadow Ball. But it wasn't aimed at Meinine.

It was aimed at me.

Meinine, already weakened and cursed, took the Shadow Ball head on. She was knocked down, and Gengar used Destiny Bond on her. I then was scared at what this Gengar was planning. I tried retrieve her, but Gengar grabbed her and started choking her.

Gengar was going to kill her. I was about to retreive her when Gengar tried to strike me. Meinine saved my life by using Shadow Ball to knock out Gengar.

But......she fainted in the proccess.

Gengar evaporated, and I went to retrieve her, but the rocks above her collapsed on top of her. I screamed in terror, instantly calling out the rest of my team to help her. We found her. She was badly wounded. I retrieved my whole team except Flygon. I was lucky to see that the cave in caused a hole in the roof. We flew out, and to the nearest town. We rushed to the Pokemon Center. The nursed tried to heal her but.

Nurse:I'm sorry, you're friend is not going to make it

Daron:The shock nearly killed me. I fell apart. I gave up being a trainer. I left family behind. I didn't want to be around any reminders. I moved to Crater Town. I made a living selling trainer items and PokeBlock. I made it around, but every anniversary of the incident, I cried till my eyes bled.

That's the story. I have only told one other person that. Ever.

Arxi had a stunned look pn her face. She was shocked at how dark my story was. I looked over to my beloved pokemon. The were all mourning. They remembered.

Arxi:I'm so sorry.

Daron:You don't have to be. You had nothing to do with it.

The next few days were pretty calm. I got a call from the police, abd they said that the couldn't find the Masked Man, nor could they find Arxi's identity. They said that she might be from another region. I told her that I would help her until this mess blew over.

Arxi:Thanks Daron.

Daron:Don't mention it. I've actually thought of becoming a Pokemon Trainer again.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Arxi's veiw

It was feeling less scared now. I thought I might be safe. But something kept me thinking. When I imagined Daron's story, I couldn't imagine Meinine for some reason. But I just dismissed it.

Daron:Arxi, I think I found something strange.

Arxi:What is it?

Daron:I've realized that when the Masked Man attacked us, he seemed to ingnore my existance entirely. He was only concered with attacking you. Nothing else.

I started thinking a hundred thoughts a second. Why would he only attack me. Why noone else?

Daron:Well, we don't need to worry now. We just have to lay low. Besides, we should get something to eat.

I realized I was hungry.

Arxi:Good Idea!

I guess we just had to lay low. This would blow over eventually. Maybe I would find out who I was. While thinking about the thoughts, I forgot about the Masked Man entirely for just an instant.

I'm such an Idiot.

A spasm of electrical energy appeared in front of us and knocked us back. I looked at it, and a bloodred portal opened up. The masked man's Dusknoir came out. Before I could scream, it grabbed me and dragged me through.

Pokemon Sapphire

Hello there internet. I’ve been recently have been having serious problems lately, and I feel that I could be in danger. Sorry if it’s a long read, but this has gotten really freaky for me. This is regarding a used game of Pokémon Sapphire I just recently got.

For those who don’t know, I’m somewhat of a Poké-nerd. I’ve been a fan of the series since me and my older brother got the first generation games, Red for him, and Blue for me. Eventually as time passed, my brother grew out of it, but I still remained faithful to the series (well, gamewise, at least. The show has gone downhill after the first series in my opinion.)

Anyways, it started a few weeks ago, when one of my internet buddies posted that he was going to start his Pokémon Ruby version over, and recording his progress and posting it on youtube. After talking about it for a bit with him, he joked about how I should restart a sapphire game. Even though it wasn’t serious, it got me in the mood to possibly play through it again.

However, I didn’t want to restart my old sapphire game over, since I had gotten so far in it, as well as had a lot of Pokémon not found in that game in the Pokédex. And I didn’t want to download an emulator and rom, so I decided that I would just get my hands on a new copy of the game. I searched for a few days online, finding a lot of sapphire games, but most were too pricey for me.

Finally, I found one that was about $3. The description said it was in good condition, with a scratch on the label, and some writing on the back with black permanent marker. Satisfied with what I found, I decided to purchase it. I couldn’t wait to get it in the mail.

A few days later, it finally arrived in the mail. As I unboxed it, I noticed the label had a scratch through the middle of it, like the description said online. As I turned it around, and saw the word “Sorrow” etched on the back of the cartridge in black permanent marker as well. Other than that, it looked like it was in fine shape. So then I put it in my Gameboy Advance SP and turned the power on.

After the title screen played, I looked at the first selection screen, when I noticed the save file on the game to be somewhat perplexing. The trainer’s name was “DAVE”, and he had all 386 Pokémon on his Pokédex. I checked his game file, and sure enough, he had every single Pokémon, even a legit Celebi (I checked Serebii.net to confirm this)! I was so astonished at this, as this was a goldmine for a Pokémon collector.

I also checked his team out, all of them level 100. This is his team:

Salamence

Girafarig

Plusle (nicknamed “Bolty”)

Sceptile

Blaziken

Swampert (nicknamed “Miko”)

Though, I was at a dilemma about what to do with his game file, whether to erase it, or preserve it. In the end, I transferred legendary, rare, and team to my Heart Gold game, so they wouldn’t be totally erased. After that, I started a new game, called my trainer “Brendan” (this is his default name. I chose Torchic as my starter, beat May, and got the Pokédex from Professor Birch, and saved my game at Oldale town. After that, I shut off the game, giving myself a break from it.

After a while, I decided to play some more, so I turned on the power. But after the intro screen, a message appeared on the screen:

Your save file is corrupted. The previous save file will be loaded.

And sure enough, my file was gone, and DAVE’s file was in its place. At first, I was a little disappointed, and thought nothing of it. Plus, I have experienced the same problem on my Diamond version of Pokémon, so this wasn’t something new to me. Plus, I knew a way around it; by saving the game twice. That way, it would revert to the first save, and my progress wouldn’t be deleted.

So, I restarted the game again, doing everything over, and saved twice. I turned the power off and on again, and the corrupt file message didn’t show itself, and my file was the same as when I last saved. I felt like I accomplished something there, and I went on in the game, reaching Rustboro city. I double saved it again, and went to sleep, since it was late at night at that point.

Now here’s where it starts getting freaky. The next day, I turned on the game, and the corrupt message showed up again. I chuckled at first, thinking it wasn’t a problem, but after the message went away, it showed that DAVE’s file was there! I was frustrated, and didn’t expect it, since I saved quite a few times. So, I went in and inputed the delete file code. I selected yes after it asked me if I wanted to delete it.

After that, the screen went black, and a message showed up. It said “My legacy… you’re trying to erase it…” At this point, I was freaked out of my mind. It felt like the game was talking to me. I don’t know why I didn’t shut off the game at this point, but I kept playing, like it was in control of me.

When the black screen disappeared, it showed Brendan in a cave room. I was at the south end of it, and a three square hallway in the center was to the north of me. The music that was playing was the same music you hear inside of Mt. Pyre, and Shoal cave. I checked the stats of my Pokémon and trainer, and it turned out to be the same as the trainer I made yesterday, and the Pokémon I had since my last save.

After checking, I walked through the passageway, which seemed like it was pretty long. Eventually, I found myself in another box room, just like the one I was in at the beginning. However, there was another Brendan standing in the middle of the room, facing north. I went up to the doppelganger, pressed A, and he turned around. This Brendan’s eyes were red, and he said “GO AWAY!”

Then a battle started. I was facing Pokémon Trainer DAVE, and his trainer was Brendan’s, except his eyes were red, and he looked angry. The music in the background was the Regi battle music. He had only one Pokémon with him; his Level 100 Plusle named Bolty. It looked sad, and the cry it gave out was if it fainted. Since my Pokémon were around level 11, I was no match for him, and his Plusle took out my team in one hit each. After my last Pokémon fainted, he appeared on screen again, and said “Now it’s your turn.”

Then the message said “Brendan is out of usuable Pokémon.” But instead of the normal message of “Brendan whited out…” it said “Brendan was killed.” Then the screen went black for a few seconds.

After the black screen went away, it showed a grassy field, with gravestones scattered around. There was a single golden gravestone in the middle. After a few seconds, a message appeared. It read a chilling message that made me shiver. (I changed the name part of the message on here, since I don’t want to reveal my real name):

Here lies XXX

I was shocked. There was a gravestone, with my real life name on it, and I never even used my name in the game. I turned off the game, and haven’t played it since.

I’m at a dilemma now, whether to pick it up again, or just get rid of the game, and get a new one. All I can say is that this scares the shit out of me.

Banjo-Kazooie

I remember when I was younger; I was about eight or nine, you know. The innocent life. Not a care in the world, so I spent a good amount of my childhood playing video games. Yes video games; it's nothing to be ashamed about. I made friends with other kids who played it, too.

I knew a kid back then who went by the name of Tony. He told me a story about some strange thing that happened to him while playing Banjo-Kazooie. He gave me specific instructions of what to do and what would happen. He spoke of Mad Monster Mansion and the portrait of Gruntilda that was in there. He spoke, saying if I crashed into the portrait using the fly-pad it would summon up a monster. As a frightened little child, I believed him, till one day I summoned up the courage to try what he told me years ago.

Nothing happened. It was just a little lie he told me, a little story he believed. So I did it again and again countless times, knowing that it was all fake with nothing to worry about. I found it amusing - I'm not sure why - so I would crash into it over and over again going to that same place where the monster would show up. It never did; that lone pipe outside the mansion you could fit into as a pumpkin was always empty. There was never anything more or anything less.

Of course, not everything is predictable; not everything follows the same routine. I tried it again one day not too long ago. About a week or two, well let’s just say things took a turn for the worst. You hear these stories and don't think anything of them; "Oh, they are just stories. It doesn't matter. It'll be alright," they say. Of course, this time I did it I almost broke a tear from how terrified I was.

I went into the room where Napper was, empty and quiet with nothing but a huge table and some chairs. I climbed on top of the table got aboard the fly pad. I mashed the B button facing Gruntilda’s portrait. The bear and bird duo flew into the portrait with a big crash as expected, but this time a different noise I heard was there. It sounded like someone had broken a bone or something, almost as if there was literal pain. I didn't think anything of it, so I left the room as normal.

Heading towards Mumbo’s skull, I came across that pipe with the Jiggy inside, but the oddest thing happened. Banjo seemed to have fallen underneath the level. I thought I had glitched the game or something - something new & exciting that I hadn't seen before. That was till I realized his legs were crawling through that small hole where the pipe was; he was clawing at the ground not making a noise - not even music - and he just flailed his arms wildly as he slowly got dragged inside. Frightened, I dropped my controller and backed away from the TV.

Next thing I know, it shows the inside of the pipe; Banjo looked fine. He was just standing in the middle of that pipe, looking around. The music, although back, was a little distorted as if played in reverse...but it couldn't be more than a freaky glitch, right? I slowly reached for my controller when I saw a giant dark hand fall slowly from the ceiling. I screamed and Banjo followed suit. It dragged him up to the ceiling, almost like the Wallmasters from Ocarina of Time.

The sounds of bones cracking was heard. Banjo screamed in a voice as if his throat was filled with blood and unspeakable true pain. The music slowed itself and turnd to static. The hand pulled him up slowly and painfully. As it got closer to the screen, I could just see the hand gripped around his neck nearly tearing Banjo in two; it was as if his head would pop off at any moment. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Banjo flailed around as the hand dragged him up to the darkness by Banjo's face till eventually the screen went completely dark.

Next thing I know, the game over transition occurred, but the black background with the witch's face was read. Surely this couldn't be real. I had to be dreaming, but somehow I knew I wasn't. I was frozen in my place with beads of sweat falling down my face. Then it happened to start the game over cut scene. Tooty, Grunty, and Klungo were all together, except it was definitely different.

Tooty was strapped into a chair with Klungo standing at her side. Grunty was slowly cutting into Tootys arm, dissecting her like fresh piece of meat. The screams from Tooty were to painful to hear while her head shook violently in agony. Grunty held up the knife and continued to pierce through her arm. After it was cut off she threw it to Klungo and he started to gnaw on it. Gruntilda's eyes were filled with madness - wait, no, madness isn't the word for this. This was a true pleasure from causing pain. A fantasy fufilled. She enjoyed herself with a wicked and sadistic grin.

With the knife she carved into Tooty's stomach, letting the blood flow out and the organs drop to the ground, splatting in a way too realistic for a game to recreate. No way could this be real; I kept telling myself it wasn't, but it was and I knew it. I just couldn't accept it. Grunty held the knife up to her mouth and licked fresh blood off of it. Satisfied but still eager for more, she violently stabbed Tooty in the eye then threw the eye across the room. She leaned into Tooty, smiling and chanting quietly as she slowly slit the blade across Tooty's neck; the knife began to slowly drip with the blood of her victim.

It faded out to a soundless black screen; the TV was definitely on, but there was nothing on the screen. I stood in place, still too scared to move. I still cannot believe what I had witnessed. After a couple days, I decided to try it again. Surely, no one could sell something like that to the public, right? I went through and crashed into the picture; I was nervous but I slowly walked up to the pipe.

There was nothing. I stood, waiting, but it didn't happen. Everything played as normal. I tried multiple times but it wouldn't work. Why would it work that one time but not any other? What came over my game and made it insane? I wish I could've moved, gotten a picture or a video. Anything I could've gotten as a shred of proof. I'm not asking you to believe me; I just want to share my tale with whoever it may interest.

I'll keep trying it, this time prepared and maybe, just maybe, I can get a single photo of what happened that night.
