It was dark, damp and the smell of rotting meat filled the nose of a man. A middle-aged man wakes up in a dark room, he started to move about, then, he noticed that something cold, heavy and metallic on his shoulders.
"HELP!" he screamed.
Suddenly, the lights flicker on, illumninating the whole room, he sees a bloody dead body lying in front of him, wearing an ugly pig mask, then a television sitting on the far end of the room, he sees the decaying carcass of pigs around him, he feels tension and disgust...
Then the television TURNS ON.
he was greeted by a pale white puppet with black eyeballs and red irises,
He backed away.
The puppet started to speak.
"Hello Greg, I want to play a game, I have watched your every move, taking your job as a lawyer for granted, I know you have a great family but are they worth it? You keep on battering your wife and neglecting your teenage son, going home to them will only cause them more pain, always holding them by their throats. The collar around your neck will activate after ninety seconds if you fail this game, it will close around YOUR THROAT and drive four blades into it, killing you, but there's a key, it's up there, by the pipes. How to retrieve it? you must hoist up the body in front of you and attach him to the contraption, the only way of escape is up. LIVE or DIE Greg, make your choice."
The TV turned off.
Then a ticking noise is heard, the games had begun.
Greg hurriedly got hold of the rope and started lifting the dead man up in the air.
Then the body started twitching, HE'S ALIVE. Greg ignored this, he continued to pull the man up in the air, the hanging man struggles to break free.
"STAY FUCKING STILL!" Greg shouted.
The man was helpless, he could not remove the noose around his neck. He keeps on struggling until he got attached to the contraption above.
"YES!" Greg cheered in excitement, and he still has ample time.
The key, was catapulted to him, he notices the hanging man dropping the cassete player on the floor, Greg quickly picked it up and played it.
"Hello Tony, I hear you were the neglected child of Greg Marcus, you keep on failing in hanging yourself just to end your misery, now's your chance, prove that you really wanted to die. You and your father will be participating in a test, you must show your father that you hated him, or convince him that you love him no matter what and you should work together to save yourselves, which is it?"
The pig mask dropped, revealing Tony, looking down at his father with tears streaming down his eyes, his hands suddenly flopped, his eyes rolled upward, HE'S DEAD.
"NOOOOOO!"
Greg moaned and cried on the floor, weeping on his son's corpse, only to be distracted by the final ten seconds of the clock, he fumbled the key to the lock hole, he was intensely shaking, resulting in him dropping the key, he continued until he heard the zero second mark.
"No!"
The collar suddenly closed around him and the four blades pierced his neck, he rolled in agony and getting one last glimpse of his dead son, he was decapitated... spilling blood everywhere.
