《Haunted Love | Colby Brock x reader✔》Chapter 9
Advertisement
I feel extremely weird. It's now currently two fifty nine a.m. I can't sleep. I'm in my bed, looking straight at the roof trying to fall asleep. But there's no use. I have this creepy vibe.
Everyone came home and are all asleep. My stomach is growling, craving food. I'm too scared to go out my room and into the kitchen for a midnight snack.
So I pull out my phone and log into YouTube, going to Sam's video we did not so long ago. I grab my headphones on my bed and plug them in my phone. I watched the video.
Throughout the video there were a few sounds. Just the keyboard, the static TV sound and knocks. I scrolled down to the comments. The first comment was posted a few minutes ago. It read:
'I appreciate that you guys do this for our entertainment, but I don't think you should've ended it that way'. As I read that, cills ran down my spine. I scrolled down once more.
'You shouldn't have ended it that way. This is not good'. I started freaking out but was put aside as a grumble came from my stomach.
I manned up and pulled my blanket aside, setting my toes on the ground. I stood up and walked to the door, slowly opening it and looking out for anyone or anything. There was nothing.
I closed my door and made my way down the stairs very slowly. Finally I was at the first floor of the house. I went to the kitchen and got out bread, penutbutter and jam.
I quickly put together my sandwich and began chewing on it. It tasted amazing. Suddenly I heard whispers. I looked around myself and my whole body froze.
All I could see was two red glowing eyes watching my every move from the window. Then I realised. Whispers are a sign of when the Midnight Man is near you. I set down my sandwich and began running up the stairs.

I got upstairs and quickly knocked on everyone's doors, shouting, "Everyone get in my room!". They all quickly got out of their rooms and into my room, except for Circa and Colby.
"Where's Circa?" I asked.
"Shit. I'll go get her." Elton said and ran out, getting Circa and coming back in. "I'll go get Colby" I said and ran to his bedroom.
I knocked on his door. No response. I knocked again. Again no response.
"Colby?" I asked. Still no response.
I opened his door. He was asleep.
I quickly walked to his bedside, touching his naked arm slightly and shaking him awake.
"Colby." I said and his eyes fluttered open.
"Everything alright?" He asked me.
"No. Come with me." I said and he stood up from his bed and followed me. We finally made it to my room. Elton brought Circa. I closed the door and locked it.
"What's wrong with you? Why would you wake us up at three twenty four in the morning?" Jake asked annoyed, still sleeping but with his eyes open. "I saw something." I answered.
Most of the roommates were seated on my big sofa I had in front of my window. The others were either sitting at my desk chair, stood up, sat on the floor or in my bed sleeping.
"What did you see?" Sam asked me. "I was busy making myself a sandwich and I heard whispers followed by two red glowing eyes watching me from afar outside the kitchen window." I began.
"Then I realised that we still should've played the game. I read the comments on your video before and most of them were things like we should not have ended it that way. Whispers is a sign of when he is near you." I said and Sam's eyes widened in realisation.

"What game?" Corey asked. "The Midnight game." Sam replied almost immediately. "Why would you play that game?" He asked. "We're thrill seekers so yeah." I replied and Corey shook his head in disappointment.
I looked past Corey and Devyn's head, into the streets of something that caught my eye.
I looked at it a bit more closer, squinting my eyes. I froze. I was in total shock.
I'm just seeing things, I thought to myself. "Do you see that?" Colby asked as he sat next to me. "That black figure?" I asked back and he nodded, now staring in the same direction as me in disbelief.
"Yes." I answered and everyone looked outside. "I don't see anything." Corey commented. "Me neither." Sam agreed.

The Martyrs: the Generation that Burns
“Perhaps we are indeed the main characters of the story, but who is to say we are not the Galactic Republic in the prequel --- No matter how many victories we seize or how many foes we slay, our fate has been sealed from the very beginning.” --- KR043. When a portal to another world was created in the deserts of Nevada, the United States, humanity was faced with a choice. Neglect it, and pray nothing happens. Or confront it, and in doing so, pay a dear cost. Earth chose the latter, and thus, came the heroic tales of the Phasewalker Corps. And thus, came the numberless skirmishes, battles, and wars that would ravage across Humanity's enemies. And thus, came the warcry that would soon echo through countless worlds. "For Earth! For Humanity! For...Victory!" This is the story of the generation that burns. Participant in the Royal Road Writathon Challenge. The cover is custom created on the Webnovel website.
