You are driving home from work.
It is a normal day.
It is already dark outside.
As you drive, you hit something with an unpleasant [[clunk]].You pull over to the side of the road immediately.
You get out and look around.
[[Check your car.]]
or
[[Check the road.]]Your car seems fine. There's not even a dent.
Thank god. You don't want your insurance premium to spike again.
[[Check the road.]]
OR
[[Check underneath your car.]]You walk out to the road.
You don't see anything, much less something that could have made that noise.
[[How strange.]]You're not sure why, but you feel like you should look underneath your car.
As you begin to crouch down to check it out, you second-guess yourself.
Are you sure you want to look underneath the car?
[[Look underneath the car.]]
OR
[[Check the road.]]There's nothing underneath your car.
[[Check the road now.]]You straighten up.
Good thing there wasn't anything there.
When you turn around, there's something standing there.
[[What is that?]]It gets you.
BAD END.You're just glad you didn't seem to have hit anything.
[[You get back in your car.]]You start driving again, slower this time.
You're used to driving in Minnesota winters, but that kind of has you on edge now.
You're not far from home now.
[[Just a little bit further.]]It's dark tonight.
Really dark. It's not normally this dark, is it?
It's January now, a few weeks past past the shortest day of the year.
And yet, every day it feels like night is coming a little earlier.
[[You keep driving.]]You're a couple blocks away from home.
Your phone buzzes.
[[You're close to home; you can look at it then.]]It buzzes again. And again.
[[You're so close to home, though.]]It buzzes one more time.
[[Just a peek won't hurt.]]
OR
[[You're a block away from home now. You can wait.]]Yes, it will.
Distracted driving KILLS. Even in video games.
Let this be a lesson to us all.
BAD END.You park against the curb outside your home. The driveway is already full.
You unlock the car door, and go to grab your stuff.
[[Wait. Your phone.]]You pick up your phone.
You have several new messages.
[[Read them.]]As you bend your head to unlock your phone, you hear a click to your left.
[[You've learned your lesson about little noises, though.]]You ignore it.
Ah, there you go.
You feel cold air against your side.
[[You can handle Minnesota chill, though.]]And then a ice cold touch up your leg.
[[That's not normal. Not even for Minnesota.]]HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!
It's your friend tshirt! They've been attached to the undercarriage of your car this whole time, waiting to say hi to you.
[[Say hi back.]]Hi tshirt.
[[He has something to say.]]Hello, Le. Would you like to play a game?
[[GOOD END.]]Okay, now imagine you're in a Saw trap. I didn't have time to write the second part of this what with you know. Football game making me forget everything, but I love and cherish you nonetheless. You make my life better to be in, and every day I talk to you is a little better for it. You are endlessly silly and special to me! Thank you for being my friend, Le. *serially kills you* Yayyy!
