GAME OVER

STANDINGS :

YodaOnCrack (Joshua): 5,000,000
Capital “W” Writer (Amanda): 2,850,000
TheBetweenSpace (Nathaniel): 925,000
THX 0477 (Paulo): 750,000
Stovohobo (Vincent): 700,000

“Oh, my god. That was the best video game I’ve ever played,” said Stovohobo. “They’re getting so realistic! There were times I couldn’t tell if I was making decisions or the A.I. was. I still can’t believe you capped me, ‘Tween. I miscalculated, clearly.”

“You shouldn’t have told me your plan. I can’t believe you did that. It made my decision easy. I had to try to get in with THX to get to Yoda.”

“I thought we had a plan, ‘W’.” THX moaned. “Why’d you stab me in the back?”

“I would’ve been with you ‘til the end, but gods, when I visited Yoda, his plan seemed perfect. BTW , Yoda, I never saw that coming.”

“Once you delivered me my prey,” said Joshua, ” I had to take you out. Or I wouldn’t have been able to achieve my goal.”

Funny, thought Joshua, they have no idea what happened. They still think I’m YodaOnCrack.

    LOL . I love it!
    “A New Life” is right. I’m female?!
    Then, again, I do have a tendency to play female characters in video games. I don’t know why, but I tend to be more successful with them.
    Great job!

    I figured you’d have a good sense of humor about it. That’s just how my muse arranged it. I tried to change it to a female ficleteer, but it just didn’t work.

    Yeah, when I realized (half way through?) that I was writing the plot of an immersive futuristic video game, I kind of got twist happy. Thanks for the comments.
