[Camera On]

[Start recording]

"And now for the moment of truth.... drum roll please..

[Aly and Mike acted like drumming]

Hahhahaha very good guys! And now the moment you've been waiting for on this mysterious location vlog-"

Aly: Mich wait, is that the title of your vlog?

"Yes. Why?"

Aly: Hmm, nope. I don't like it.

"Then what do you suggest?"

Mike: How about journey to the unknown

"Uhm, I don't know if that'll work because this is not a movie, babe."

Aly: Oh I know! How about "travel to the mysterious place for the first time?"

"That's great."

Mike: Yeah, that's great! I agree with her.

"Okay, okay. TAKE TWO!!

And now for the moment you've all been waiting for this never done before, travel to the mysterious place here on earth, welcome to~

[Swith camera angle]

THE 13TH AVE!!!

[Switch back camera angle]

So you see guys, there's this trending post of the couple travelers recently and I think, why not try coming here for ourselves?

Yeah, I know it's kinda creepy since it's abandoned but I think this would be really, really fun. So, let's go!!!"

[Camera still recording]

We then start to enter the amusement and to be honest, it has a kind of different atmosphere after entering the destroyed gate of the amusement park. And since I don't want to look scared, I have to take it all in, as possible.

"So guys as you can see, this place is really huge and really old, but when we try to look deeper into the past of this, it will actually make you wonder,

What happened to this place?

I've done my research and it was said that there's a huge fire happened here and yes, many got injured at that time. If you're asking when and why? I don't know. That's the only detail the internet provides us, people."

We did continue walking and me trying explain the place further, like I know everything about it. But to be honest, I don't because first, this is my first time coming here and second, I've done my research.

Aly: I think we should go to the other way

"Why? What's the matter?"

Aly: i just don't like here. I think there's a log better rides to see over there-

"No way! And oh look at that! That both is interesting tho. Let's go over there!!"

We did go to the booth that catche my attention, especially that the title of the booth is indeed interesting.

"And now, this is indeed so far has the most interesting booth name."

Fall and Die Village

"Hmm? It got me really, really curious guys. Makes me wanna see what's inside because honestly, this is also the first time I encountered this name."

Aly: Are we done here? We should go now-

"Oh come on Aly, we should enter this one! Let's go!"

Aly: Wait!

Mike: Mich wait!

I didn't even have any second thoughts as I run inside the area. The cold breeze immediately hit my skin as it send chills down my spine. My smile immediately fades as my heart starts to beat fast.

"Whoa! Here for sure is cold, you guys."

Mike: Yeah it is.

Aly: And it's weird.

I start to roam around as these goggle-style items lie on an armchair. There are five chairs in a row and three were perfectly fine. The two were busted from the fire probably.

"Guys check these out. Mike come near, quickly! They should see this."

Mike instantly came over and focused on the goggles.

"Hey, the mirror tells something. Focus it!"

Mike: Read what it says.

"Okay. So it says here that"

"Some people have this dream at a point in their lifetime. Although dreams doesn't always end up good dreams, this will set as a challenge to how far you'll go to solve a past.

But be sure to keep in mind that

If you fall, you die."

-Pajan

"Who the heck is Pajan? Is he an american citizen or Chinese? Asian? I don't know. But anyways, this is creepy as hell."

Aly: Yeah, so we need to go now-

"We should try it!"

Aly: What? No!

Mike: I'm in let's go!!

Mike quickly set the camera's tripod as I hold the camera myself. As soon as he was able to set it up, we connected the camera and take each seat at once. I then wonder why Alyssa didn't even dare to come and sit with us. Like, something is wrong with her.

"Aly, aren't you trying it with us?"

Aly: We shouldn't be doing this, guys.

Mike: Come on, Aly. Do it for the fans.

"Bestie, nothing's going to happen okay? This is busted so it would possibly not work."

Mike: Aly let's go!

Luckily, she ended up sitting and trying the game with us. I know the game is probably bebroken but my inside is telling me that it's not. Like, someone is telling me to find out about the game.

"Are we all set?"

They nodded. So, I look at the camera and gave my biggest smile.

"Okay! So guys, were going to try the game and my friend Aly had set a three minute alarm for us to remove these goggles but, only if nothing happened. But if something happens, maybe we will be a bit longer than that. So, seatbelts on, goggles on, and let's do it!!!"

We recite what's written on the mirror before placing our goggles, and suddenly, the Google's screen turns like a glitching screen.

"Uhm guys, something's happening."

No response.

"Guys?"

The glitch turns a bit brutal to the eyes that made me close my eyes that moment and as I open my eyes, a small light turning into a big one almost destroy my pupil. As much as I want to scream, I can't. And even if I do, I wouldn't be able to hear myself.

"Nooooo!!!" I shouted as I can't take the eye-burning rigged screen and remove it instantly. I rapidly close and open my eyes to adjust to the light of the area again, as I remove my seatbelt.

"What the f*ck! That thing already crushed my eyes!" I overreacted but somehow, I know it is true.

"How come you changed your outfit that instant, Mich?"

"What are you- you changed your clothes too!" I exclaimed as I realize that Aly was already wearing a kimono outfit. I look at mine and it is as well identical to her. Same as Mike.

"Why are we wearing this kind of outfit? And where are we?"

"Maybe this is the game already." Mike said.

"Okay. So what should we do now?"

The sun starts to set as the area becomes orangey-dark dusky theme. Although there were lamps everywhere, we can still see the surrounding.

"Why is the ground colored purple-bluish?" Mike ask that made me wonder and look on the ground as well.

"That's not a ground you see, Mike." Aly ask as she gulps, with fright and worry in her eyes.

"Well, what is that then?" He ask as I examine Alyssa. Something is really wrong with her.

"Hello Mike, Alyssa and Michelle!"

"Ahh!" We all shouted in unison as a cute teenage girl pops out of nowhere. I look around as I try to find out where she could have possible came. Although we are into the terrace of a bamboo house, we cannot still figure out what's on the ground.

I turn my gaze to the teenager. She's as well wearing a kimono same as with ours, but what makes it different is that hers has blood stains.

"Welcome to Fall and Die Village. Welcome to our land." She said, giving us the sweetest smile.

"Hey kid, what's your name?"

"Sorry, I haven't introduced myself. My name is Katherine."

"Where are your parents?" Aly ask.

"They're over there. Come and follow me."

We start to walk down when Aly stopped us.

"We should stay here until the sun comes up."

"What's the matter? Are you afraid?"

"Yes I am. And we should not trust anyone."

"Come on Aly. This is just a game of dreaming." I spat.

"But you don't understand."

"Did you come here with us just to ruin our vlog?"

"No! Why would I do that?"

"Girls, knock it off."

"Both of you, you've got to listen to me." She said but I'm so done with her."

"Whatever, Aly. Do whatever you wanna do." I said and fasten my phase as Mike followed me. When we step on the purple-bluish ground, the feeling is not so good in my feet. It is sticky and it is stinky.

"What the heck is this?"

"Hello Mike, Alyssa and Michelle." Another three girls came greeting us. They are as well wearing kimonos with identical colors.

"Hey guys."

"This is the village where you fall, you die. Have fun!" They chuckle devilishly as they run away from us.

"Fall you die what?" Mike ask.

"Mike, Alyssa, Michelle come quick!!" She said and continue running. We followed her and when we were a meter away from her, we were all put into shock when the girl trips and suddenly she turns into a purple-bluish form and in that moment, I realized what were stepping into.

These were dead bodies.
