DRABBLE STORY ARC #1: UNTIL LUCK RUNS OUT

Noughts and Crosses

A chapter of a ‘choose your own’ story — Drabble edition!

This is a continuation of You Are Dead, a Choose Your Own Adventure Story — Drabble Edition started by Bradan Writes Stories. Find out how to contribute here, or return to the previous chapter by John Fanidis.

This drabble was also a response to the Hodgepodge challenge #6 by Sweet Chaos!

On the other side is a message:

You shameful devil! Wanna exit this hell? There’s a first time for everything.

You pick up a pen, and begin to play. You draw an ‘O’, and an ‘X’ appears in blood. Your second ‘O’ begins to wobble. It becomes a ghost; you duck as it swoops past.

The third becomes a UFO, and flies to another square.

You toss the paper in rage, then notice that the pen has an inscription:

Treasure hunt, changeling? You only need a die to cheat Death. Game on!

After all, this was the clue you needed…

Continue… and grab your D20! You’re now entering a very different ‘choose your own’ story arc!!

How’d I do? Here’s my tentative scorecard:

Someone is guilty as the devil/your character is on a scavenger hunt (2pts).

A pen that makes things come alive (1pt).
A being of an unknown race (a changeling – 1pt).
The phrase “There’s a first time for everything" (1pt).
A pun – die/dice/death (1pt).
