Of trials & tribulations, DAY 1, 7AM TO 12AM

Mar 12, 2009 13:34

The sky is a tiny crack as you peek with one eye open. A sliver of an opening, just enough for a ray of sunlight and barely enough oxygen. Your mind is a fog and it's obviously day time but it's so dark around you that you cannot even see your hand. Wait.

You can.

A small green light at your wrist draws your attention and you lift that hand in curiosity, only to slam into wood.

You're in a coffin.


“Welcome to Mafia Land,” a tinnny voice announces on the ancient PA system and you're wide awake at once. There are blanks in your memory and the last thing you remember is someone mugging you behind. Chloroform. Wham. Bam. And here you are, sitting in a coffin too new to be buried. But you're breathing, you're alive, for now. The voice continues, disembodied and you listen because you don't know what else to do.

“You are now part of a game, a game that will determine the future of the mafia.  Each of you have been deemed to have the potential of leading the underworld and the objective of this game is to find the best candidate.  The last person remaining will be the winner.  You will find a pack at each of your starting points that will help you complete the game-”

As the voice carries on monotonously, you turn back to the coffin and find inside it a heavy duty bag.  You are issued a survival pack which includes a map, a functioning compass, a flashlight, food and water, and a random weapon or other items. It is then that you notice the band strapped around your wrist cannot be taken off. The neon green light pulses steadily like a heartbeat.  While your mind tries to make sense of what is happening, the voice concludes:

“There is only one rule; stay alive.”

Let the games begin :D
