The Encounter

'''As the sun had just set out of view, Cameron, the owner of the server, pointed up. “Who’s that…?” He asked, his fingertip directed at the solid, grey figure standing on the rooftop. It had a long, black stripe going down its back. The shadows covered him, but not enough to keep him from sight. It seemed fixed to a certain point, like it was a statue. “We’re the only ones supposed to be in this server,” He realized, looking from friend to friend. His friends looked up. '''



'''“OMG! It’s Null!” his friends exclaimed, mistaking Null for the figure, and one of them tried to get a screenshot. His screenshot button was broken. '''



'''“AGH! HE GOT INTO MY COMPUTER!” the friend screamed, thinking the figure had somehow stopped his computer from taking a screenshot. He panicked, spamming the button; stupidly thinking that it’ll somehow get better. “MY SCREEN SHOT’S NOT WORKING!” '''



'''His friends started screaming at Cameron through his headset, whining about what to do. “What should we do? HOW DO WE DO IT? PLEASE, SOMEONE HELP US!” '''



'''Cameron was panicking, too; albeit, very quietly. He had no idea what to do. He tried to stay calm, but the fear was starting to show in his words. “L-let’s see what he wants.” Approaching the figure took all his courage and determination, something he didn’t have much of. His friends stayed on the ground, bows and arrows at the ready. While over their initial panic, they were still afraid of what would happen if they somehow angered the black figure. '''
