Inanimate Insanity Games Novels & Stories

Then he noticed it. There were papers on the floor and the desk in the middle of the room was toppled. A monitor was turned on, but the screen was stuck. He could see a single line of text flashing in red, bold letters: "Game Over." With a gasp, Anita's hand shot to her mouth. Nathan's heart pounded in his chest with agony. The declaration of war was more than just a threat. "Enter here!" Nathan yelled at the security guards. Check the perimeter right away! The slightest sound, a gentle creak, came from the far side of the room as they were about to do so, like if someone were moving behind the walls. The weight of something—or someone—moving around the room made the floors creak. One of the

There was tension in the palace. It was like a thick blanket thrown over the palace. The maids gather in small groups, whispering. The guards were busy trying to bring back order to the palace. Everyone was busy but no one was doing anything in particular. Just roaming around the east wing trying to get a clue of what was happening inside. Princess Alisa, the Queen, and Kimberly were all by the door, watching in horror. No one dared venture in to try to stop him. Cain was present but did not stop the event. He was in fact the executioner.

“The stakes here are not fair.” “How is it not fair? You keep telling me to leave you alone even though your body doesn’t think so. Now I’m giving you a chance to actually make me leave you alone. All you have to do is choose any game of your choice and win.” Dominique is calm as he watches me intently. “You know, you’re at a more advantage here. You get to choose the game and it could be anything you want. Chess, pool, whatever you want.”

“It’s been years since the initial attack. Red Dawn had plenty of times to try and take down Silver Moon, why are they only striking now?” “The Alpha Games failed.” She shrugged, drawing more confused faces. “Red Dawn wants power. It doesn’t matter if their name isn’t the strongest, as long as they control the one who is. They entered many different wolves from different packs into the Games, all with the intention of Daniel winning. It was their last chance to gain their power without war.” Inga sighed and let her head flop back on the cushions, a deep tiredness settling on her. “War was inevitable the moment Luna Madeline took a different mate.”

I accused before slamming down my mind shields and ending our conversation. "What if both die during the games?" Denver mused after a short moment of silence. "My father wouldn't create a game that could kill them. Not when each has their own packs to take care of," I waved off the suggestion with a flick of my wrist, "I don't even know how many games he plans on holding. The all-mighty Game Master has kept all his cards hidden." "Not really," a triumphant grin split Denver's full lips, "my father mentioned that there will be three to five games. Depending on how the Alphas perform. He will host one game a day every second day to give the Alphas a chance to rest in between."

I tapped his shoulder twice before walking out the door. “Where do you think you’re going?” “The girl’s room, you should try going too. But then again, you claim to be a man. But I’m sure none of the girls would notice the difference” I said rolling my eyes. End of Flashback. “Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. Welcome to the first level of The Bloodlust Games!” Ian announced. Fireworks started inside the podium as our faces appeared on screen, I raised an eyebrow at the screen as music played. Kids were attending the event? The man has truly gone mad this time, but then again I was aware that he was mad.

So this was it, the system was trying to get use to kill ourselves. A small smirk crept to my lips. We get to do the dirty work while the system keeps its hands clean. Someone shouted, “This is insane!” He was absolutely right, the game was insane alright— insanely fun. The doll tilted its head. More like it's neck did a 180°c turn— creating a grotesque sight. The sound of its creaky wood echoing across the living room “You think this is insane?” it chuckled. “Love is what is insane. If a relationship is easily broken then it's not worth keeping.

I poke my head out from behind Blake and notice that the syringe holds a metallic looking liquid. Silver! They’re injecting silver into us to immobilize us! Then I remember… Every participant of the games will be heavily sedated before being transported to the games arena where they will all wake up in an alien landscape. Each participant will be placed in an isolated living quarter and take turns being pitched against one another until a lone victor remains. The arena for the Omega Games has always been a mystery to everyone. No one knows where it is.

Then Natasha’s voice cuts through my tortured thoughts. “The first game is called…” she pauses, her grin so wide it could swallow the sun, “…The Strongest Ass.” The strongest… what? My brain tries to process this. Oh God, please tell me it’s not what I think it is. She smiles, waving her hands as if she’s conducting an orchestra of chaos. “This game is simple. If the person you’re rooting for has a strong ass that can break iron, he will win!” The crowd erupts…cheering, clapping, shouting. I clutch my head. Everyone here is insane.

Your fears come back stronger and this time, you crave the relief and fake bliss that the drug has offered. That’s exactly what it feels like for Yekaterina, Jade and Minerva’s team. They’re completely caught off guard and they feel the worry and fear gripping their insides like it has never done before. The noise of the chopper heightens their anxiety. It added to the fact that they were not told anything about this final game. Once they were gathered in the main hall, the robots led them to the rooftop of the arena and from there, the choppers that will take them to the game venue awaits.
