AN: So yeah, this is kinda on the shorter side for a chapter. I realize that's the case, and I realize this chapter probably won't be the best one I've written. I didn't want to actually write the full scenes out word for word, and so this is what I was sticking with. I will say this now, you do not need to read this if you don't want to, because this chapter contains spoilers for The Last of Us, and if you haven't played it yet, then I don't want to ruin this for you. Also, this chapter does not need to be read in order to make sense of later chapters, for I will do a brief synopsis of this chapter (without spoilers) in the next chapter right after this. Thanks for reading all my stuff, and hope you enjoy this, if you decide to read it.

Also, if someone with artistic talents out there could do me a favor and create a cover photo for this, that would be amazing. The one that is there now I just found on google and I'd rather have something original. Thanks.

Weiss sat there, grumbling to herself as Ruby put the disc into the system. "I can't believe I'm actually doing this." Ruby mentioning The Last of Us at dinner caught Weiss' attention, and got her into a situation she didn't think she would be in. Playing the game herself.

"Oh come on Weiss, it'll be fun. Trust me, the game looks amazing, and I'll warn you now, there will be feels, so many feels." Ruby sat down next to Weiss as the game loaded up. While Ruby normally stayed on the Xbox, almost everyone she knew from back home said that she should try the game, so when she did, she was blown away by it.

Weiss stared at the screen as the game loaded. "I assume the difficulty isn't to hard to manage. Me never playing this before, or a PlayStation for that matter, I want to get a feel for the controls."

Ruby turned to Weiss. "Relax Princess, it's on Normal so you won't have any issues with it at all." Ruby heard the game's opening cut-scene take place. "Oh hey, it's starting."

*****SPOILER ALERT*****

(READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!)

Weiss watched, as the game's main character Joel, receives a watch from his daughter for his birthday. At first she is confused, watching him take her upstairs to go to sleep. Once the game goes on, she is in the daughter's room. The girls phone rings and she picks it up, learning that it was her uncle, trying to get a hold of her father. Weiss finally got control of the daughter, Sarah, and she walked over to Joel's room.

Once she got there, the tv was displaying some kind of warning, Sarah noting that they were nearby where she was. A sudden explosion startles Weiss, causing her to gasp. Once she gets control of herself, she leaves the room and goes downstairs. Weiss could feel herself getting more nervous, not knowing a thing of what was going on. "Ruby what the heck is going on?"

"Hey, no spoilers Weiss." Weiss frowned and turned back to the tv, walking Sarah through the glass doors. Now the main character Joel walks in, panicking, concerned over the safety of his daughter. Weiss sees someone try to break through a glass door, into the house, successfully getting in after a few attempts. Joel shoots the man, and then pulls his daughter out to the front of the house, where Joel's brother Tommy awaits them.

Weiss was really wondering what was going on, the drive through the country side, and then through town did nothing to help her. At that point, a car came and hit the one she was in, causing Weiss to jump. She dropped the controller in the process. Once she got back to her senses, she realized that she needed to do something. So she quickly grabbed the controller. "Ok Weiss, whatever you do, don't look back." Weiss turned to Ruby quickly, then she focused herself back on the game. She finally was playing as Joel, taking control of him carrying his daughter through town, running for their lives.

Eventually, Weiss got to a point where she encountered the military. "Ok good. Now I don't have to worry, everything's fine." She looked over at Ruby, her face saying otherwise. "Wait, what's that..." Weiss turned back to see the military man, shoot at her. Weiss' expression changed, she was screaming in her head, wondering what the hell was going on. Once she saw that Sarah had died, she couldn't control herself. "What?" It was all that she could think of, no other words to describe what she was thinking.

After a few scenes, Weiss got control over Joel again, only 20 years into the future. The pandemic had spread, and the world was in utter ruin. Weiss was still feeling the effects of seeing the little girl die, and she was starting to lose a bit of her composure. After some time, Weiss started to get the hang of the controls, encountering zombies for the first time. "Ok Weiss, using stealth is pretty key in this game, so what you want to do, is sneak up behind them, and choke them out. That way you can save ammo and still get the kills on them."

"So like this?" Weiss crawled up behind a runner, and choked him out, leaving the other infected unaware of her presence. Ruby smiled and nodded at Weiss, who felt glad to be getting the hang of things. "So the best weapon in my arsenal right now is stealth then. Got it."

Eventually, she encountered the man named Robert, who had stolen a shipment of guns from her character Joel, and his friend Tess. They beat the man up, who told them that he sold the guns to a rebellion group called the Fireflies, who then show up and ask Joel and Tess to smuggle some cargo out of the city they are in. "So, we got to help these people who took our guns, so we can get those guns back?" Ruby nodded, she was trying to avoid spoiling everything for Weiss. "Well that's ridiculous."

Weiss found out that the cargo she was supposed to smuggle, was a kid. "What? What's so important about this little dunce anyway? God this is all ridiculous. If it wasn't for the amazing graphics and the fact that this is almost like a movie are so far, the only things working in its favor right now."

Ruby shook her head. "Weiss, the game starts off on the slow side, but trust me, things get intense in a heart beat, really soon." Weiss rolled her eyes and took Ruby's word on that. As she made her way through the city, she was found by the military. Who then did some kind of scan on them. As the kid resisted, forcing Joel and Tess to act, Weiss was mad at the kid.

"What kind of person would do that?" Weiss expression changed when she saw what her character saw, a readout that said that the kid was infected. "Great, now we gotta kill this kid." Upon hearing that she was possibly immune, Weiss began to get even more confused, running away from the military and out of the city. Her objective was the Capitol building, and she had quite a ways to go.

Weiss started to climb through an old building that was full of infected. Ruby started to curl up into a ball, she remembered what came from this place, and how much she hated it. "Ruby, why are you curling up into a ball?" Weiss grew nervous, something that was somewhat foreign to her. "Ruby don't do this to me, don't freak me out like this."

Weiss was about to walk to her death before Ruby reacted quickly. "Weiss stop moving." Startled, Weiss froze, she saw what Ruby saw, an infected in front of her, except this one wasn't moving. "That's a clicker. Those things, will kill you if you are not careful." Ruby took a breath and gathered her composure. "They see with sound, so the less noise that you make, the less likely they are to notice you. Unfortunately, you need a Shiv to kill them, or you need to time your shots perfectly, so trust me when I say this, be careful around those things." Weiss went wide-eyed at the description Ruby gave her. Swallowing the lump in her throat, she pressed on.

About an hour later, Weiss came up to the Capitol Building. The people she was supposed to meet weren't there, and she had to leave. Weiss stopped again, her emotions taking a big kick in the gut, when she saw that the girl Tess was going to die. She felt herself choke up. She didn't want to see anymore death, but there was nothing she could do about it at the moment, she just made her way out of the city as quickly as she could. Once she was away and she saw the cut-scene that followed, Weiss stood up. "Ok, I can't play anymore right now. My emotions can't handle anymore of this." Weiss walked out of her room, leaving Ruby to fend for herself till she returned.
