The Arcade

The Old Man and the Machine

added by Goldie 4 years ago A I

..... Knowing these games were rigged to steal your money, through experiance Audrey decided to just go with the most exposed and easy prize to get as it was better than getting nothing at all before going home. Plus the rabbit was wearing a cute maid outfit which made Audrey's heart race. Afyer carefully manuvering it over her target and making sure the limp metal hand enclosed it..... she clutched her new prize tightly as she turned around jumping at a strange man standing behind her.

His hair was wild and messy and once could have been jet black but time had taken it's told goving it silver streaks that empasized his icey blue eyes that was staring at the machine as he had a thooty grin with a rusty old jacket. He only smiled wider as Audrey noticed him jumping back..... She was scared, this person seemed like some one you wouldn't talk to at all-

"Funny thing this machine is. Haven't seen anyone pull anything in a while... but maybe thats for the best.... They say this machine is cursed you know~"

"C-Cursed? W-what do you mean?"
Audrey clutched her new prize tightly. This man clearly was either crazy or had heard too many stories-

Her own thoughts were interrupted by the old hound's laugh which sent shivers down her spine... it was just a game!

"I own this here Arcade you see, I've built this plaxe from the ground up! Bought every knick nack, Pin ball machine, and those fancy electronic things you kids get a kick out of..... But I never knew where this one poped up!"

He slapped the side of it and all Audrey could think of was how she wanted to go home... to her bed.... and her computer and play video games till she couldnt open her eyes any longer....

"But the weird thing is missy, when people win from this machine, they never come back. Some may just want to not hang around this place of dissapointment and needless entertainment anymore but I KNOW better!

At that point the man gives an unearthly derranged laugh and Audrey is trying to scoot out the door.. she can't take much more of this. She came to play games not be creeped out by some olf man.

"T-thank you but I really have to-"

"Have to go then? Then watch yourself Girly, uou have a pretty face it would be nice to see you again~

With that conversation ended Audrey ran..... She didnt even notice the small movements of the rabbit doll she clutched to her chest as she ran from the laughter of the old man.
