Sorry about the late update, life got in the way. Anyways enjoy Chapter 3!
Chapter 3: Introduction
Each of the groups looked at their Hologram Wraith wondering what the hell was going on. The hologram just sat there in silence for around 5 minutes before Blisk finally addressed the seemingly lifeless projection.
"Uhh… hello? Earth to Wraith!"
The hologram began to sputter and glitch out. Finally, after a minute or so of sputtering the hologram responded to Blisk and the legends.
"Shit sorry, I got disconnected from the holograms. Turns out the internet is complete ass in the void. Don't worry I'm plugged in to ethernet now, we should have no further interruptions."
"Now where was I, oh right! Because you all have ruined my dreams and brought about my worst nightmare of not achieving a #1 Victory Royale, I'm going to make you all feel my pain! You all will have to navigate this maze and confront your worst fears and/or biggest annoyances! If you are able to make it through the maze, you will be allowed to live. But if you die in the maze, you die for real!"
As Wraith ended her speech all of the rooms were filled with the deafening sound of the discord ringtone. Revenant, Crypto, Wattson, and Loba pulled out their phones to find they were being called by Blisk.
"Excuse me, what the fuck!" Wraith said, irritated at this interruption.
"God you were right, the internet in here is ass!" Blisk said.
"Are any of you guys listening to me!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah death maze, facing our worst fears, whatever. I know you Wraith, you may kill people for fun, but you aren't allowed to kill any of us unless we're in the games. Its part of your contract."
The call would finally connect and soon a familiar Russian voice could be heard shouting into the speakers.
"Cyka Blyat, where the fuck are you guys!"
"Jesus, of all the people I actually connect to of course it'd be you Revenant." Blisk stated in a disappointed tone.
"You can thank Pathfinder for that, he's using what little of his energy he has left to help boost the signal on my Nokia Phone!"
"All I fe-el i-s p-a-i-n." Pathfinder sputtered before his voicebox shorted out.
"Ok first off, how the fuck are you using discord on a Nokia, second off you're Russian, Nokia is Finnish! You're not fitting your stereotype!"
"Fuck you, you're not my Mom!" Revenant shouted in return.
"Eh il ah, who the fuck are y'll talkin too?" Horizon drunkenly asked through the call.
"Oh god, not this again." Trevor said under his breath.
"Ay! I heard that yah little shet! Yu don't have any say over mah life choices!"
"Mom, we've been over this. I don't care what you do with your life, but could you please stop trying to move into my house and listing me as a dependent on your taxes!"
"Oh, so yah think you're to good to healp yur mother, eh? Well fuk yah too then! I'm gunna take yah to the pain train in train town!"
"You really think I won't kill someone!" Wraith menacingly asked Blisk.
"Yes, I think you won't." Blisk replied smugly.
"Well then, ozama barnoku, sonobarokokoa, Barrack Obama!"
Just as Wraith finished her incantation, Blisk and the other legends heard a droning sound through the roof of the maze. The noise began to get louder and louder as the room began to shake.
"Everyone hit the dirt!"
Blisk shouted as a large object crashed into the room that Blisk, Trevor, Lifeline, Gibraltar, and Bloodhound were in. After the dust had cleared Blisk and the other legends looked towards the opposite end of the room to see a crashed Mil Mi-24 Hind helicopter gunship and poking up from the bottom of the helicopter was Trevor's arm with his middle finger up.
"Finally, the sweet release of death!" he croaked out as he went limp and died.
"You killed my child soldier! Do you know how much paperwork I have to fill out now!" Blisk screamed as she fell to her knees in despair.
Wraith began to laugh maniacally, revealing in the misery of Blisk. In the midst of Blisk's grief the cockpit of the Hind opened and a young man in a Russian pilot's outfit climbed out of the helicopter and staggered his way to the center of the room.
"Ah, sorry about that my friends. I thought I was landing the helicopter on top of the Apex Plaza. Where the fuck am I anyways?"
"Wait, was that meh son dyin, fuck yes now I can claim hes money in dah will!" Horizon yelled through the discord call.
"Man, shame that wasn't me, am I right, high five anyone?" Mirage could be faintly heard saying in the background.
"Give me back my phone! What the hell is going on over there?" Revenant said having regained his phone.
"Wait, Revenant is that you?" The Russian pilot asked.
"Vladimir, yo what the fuck is going on my man?"
"Going good my friend, going good! Have you managed to win over any dates at the Denny's today?"
"Well, I would have if it wasn't for Wraith being a stuck up little Fortnite Princess!"
Wraith's hologram became noticeably angrier at this comment.
"Well that's unfortunate, anyways I gotta get back to my home planet of Russia, see you later my friend!"
"See you later Vlad!"
Blisk and the others then observed as Vladimir's helicopter miraculously repaired itself and he went flying off into the distance.
"Ok then, anyways good luck assholes!" Wraith's hologram said before doing an obligatory evil laugh and disappearing.
The rooms fell silent as everyone tried to take in the reality of what was going on. After a few minutes of silence, Blisk once again attempted to call one legend per group. Fortunately, she was able to connect to all of them this time.
"Hello! If you're on the call, please respond and state who you are with!"
"Revenant here with Pathfinder, Horizon, and Mirage."
"Crypto here with Rampart and Valkyrie!"
"Wattson here with Caustic and Bangalore, unfortunately."
"Loba, here with Fuse and Octane!"
"Ok, I'm here with Lifeline, Bloodhound and Gibraltar."
"So, what the hell do we do now?" Crypto asked.
"Unfortunately, I only see one way out of this." Blisk replied with a sigh.
"We have to go through Wraith's death maze."
