"Into Oblivion"
The shift starts with an ominous chime,
The building fills with a feeling of dread.
They are on the move once more.
You flip between cameras,
Your body shakes,
As the ordeal begins anew.
.
Eyes flickering frantically
Between the tablet and your sides,
You feel the sweat begin to form.
The slow tick… tock… of the clock
Soon becomes your world,
Enveloping you in this tiny room.
.
The sounds of deep laughter and heavy footfalls
Echo throughout the building,
Shattering the temporary silence
And replacing it with a dull thunder.
Senses on high alert, you flip through every camera
Checking for anything, everything that could be wrong.
.
At some point, the steps overtake the clock,
Pounding in your ears, drawing
Ever… closer…
The light pours through the doorway, illuminating the figure of a bunny,
Lasting only for a second as it's abruptly blocked off
With a resounding thud.
.
The figures dance in front of your face long after you see them,
Taunting you with their very existence
Until your sanity has been completely effaced.
Are they real? You wonder, though you can no longer tell.
The line between fiction and reality has blurred so much
That nothing can ever seem real again.
.
Wrapped in this state of delusion and paranoia,
This primal state of survival,
You continue through the night,
The constant fear encasing you, trapping you.
And it's then you realize
It'll never go away.
.
And so you survive as you've always done,
Always on guard, ever alert.
You jump at every noise,
You recoil at every sight,
Knowing the next thing that happens could send you straight
Into Oblivion.
A/N: So, I thought I'd take a stab at a FNaF fic. I hope I did a good job of preserving the tense/creepy atmosphere of the game, but only you can tell me what you thought of it. Please, make sure to leave a review and tell me how you liked the poem! Thanks in advance!
