"Just do it. I promise it's going to be fun" Alex passed the game controller to Sam who was sitting on the couch, reading a book
"Sorry,Alex. I want to finish this book today." Sam gestured at the book she's been reading
"But when you've finished it, you'll start reading another book and another one and another one and you'll never play with me"
"Sorry Alex but why don't you ask Clover to play?"
Clover looked up from the phone at the mentioned of her name
"No way am I going to play some dorky video games"
"Fine then, I'll play with you,Alex" Sam said, defeated. She put her book down and sat on the floor,next to Alex.
Alex smiled at Sam and handed her a controller
"What game are we playing?" Sam asked
"Legacy of Maximus Squadron"
"…What's that?"
"It's a fighting game"
"Oh.." Sam said, looking disappointed
"Just be happy she didn't make you play The Pink Pony: Skittles Rainbow Tragic" Clover chipped in "That was a total snoozefest"
"It was The Pink Pony: Mystical Rainbow Magic" and it was fun!" Alex fought back. The tv screen turned on and the game started. The character selection popped up
"Now you have to pick your character to fight" Alex instructed Sam
Sam scrolled through the character selection,trying to pick her fighter but all of the characters are either almost naked or wearing something really weird. "Ok, I pick this since she's the only one who has a shirt on". After 5 minutes, she finally picked one. She spun around and found Alex fake snoring, she nudged her
"Wh—what?" Alex pretended to wake up. After Alex finished picking a character, she went throught the rules of the game and the controls with Sam
"Alright! Let's start the game!" Alex hit start "Just remember, click Y for left punch, X for right punch, A for le-" She stopped when she saw Sam randomly clicking buttons with rage.
"Or you can just do that"
-15 minutes later-
"Die! Die! Die!" Sam slammed her left fist down on the floor and shouted as she controlled her character to punch the opponent. Sam's face was red from the shouting. She was stomping the ground to release her "stress".Her character continued to punch and slammed the opponent flat on the ground. "DON'T YOU DARE GET UP!" Sam threatened. The game counted down from 10 to 1 and her opponent was knocked down.
"…and that's how it's done" Sam put the controller down and blew her nails like it was nothing. Clover and Alex's jaws dropped. They were surprised to see their nerdy friend getting violent at video games.
"Wow" Alex finally said "Who knew pressing random buttons would help you knocked down the boss stage…twice"
"Not to mention, she knocked down two vases and a table" Clover pointed at the mess that Sam made while she was filled with rage but too into the game to notice.
"Want to play again?" Sam asked
"NO!" Clover and Alex said at the same time. And Sam was banned from playing video games forever.
