The Black Room - Alternate Ending

Made by Abbykurle

An alternate ending to The Black Room!

WARNING:THIS STORY CONTAINS GORE

It was just a normal day. The moment I got home from school, I logged into animal jam and started playing.

My main animal was a blue and white arctic wolf with purple swirl pattern. She wore a black worn, navy blue fox hat, white spiked collar and wristband, and a white tail feather. Her name was Snowflake Magicmoon.

I did the new Member Daily Spin and checked out the shops but there weren't any new items and still no update, so I was bored.

I didn't have anything else to do, so I walked aimlessly around Jamaa, doing nothing. I decided to go to Appondale. I was wandering around aimlessly when I noticed that the cave in the corner of the map was slightly different. Curious, I moved my avatar over to it. Suddenly, I was transported to a weird, black room.

The entire room was dark, with a stone floor and brick walls.There were creepy claw marks and designs in the brown-black walls, some of them were colored blood red or had a shade of purple. The floor was covered in claw marks.

I tried to exit out, but all the tabs were gray, including the World Map.

I couldn't ask my buddies for help, because my buddy list was empty and there was no search button.

My only actions were dodge, claw, bite, and eat, but the creepiest thing was that my chat bar was replaced with a 'health bar' and next to it was a button that said 'surrender'.

I began to freak out, grabbing my computer and screaming.

I turned my head, only to find that my bedroom had turned into a tiny black metal room with nothing in it but my computer.

I got up and banged on the walls while screaming for my parents, until my voice was so hoarse I couldn't talk.

Just as a sat back down by my computer, I heard an eerie noise.

It sounded like someone breathing very slowly, with very faint cries for help.

Suddenly, I got a slimy feeling all over my body.

The computer screen filled my vision, I tried turning my head but all I saw was my animal jam character with all the grayed out tabs.

It was like I was sucked into the game.

And I was.

I felt panic rising. I had to be dreaming. I tried to pinch my arm, but I was now my wolf, who only had certain animations.

The black room my wolf was in suddenly changed.

It was much darker now, and faint purple light was coming from the brick walls. A few cobwebs were in the corners of the room, and blood was splattered across the ground. But what terrified me most was the black wolf in the back of the room.

The black wolf started walking toward me, claws extended and teeth bared.

Somehow I was still able to open the actions even though I was in the game. Without any other option, I got ready to bite the wolf.

Then it attacked.

I clicked the 'bite' button as fast as I could. My arctic wolf threw its head forward and snapped its jaws shut. A wound appeared on the black wolf, and red stained its fur. I tried to look away, but I couldn't. Before I could attack the wolf again, it jumped onto my wolfs back and started clawing and biting it. The attack tabs suddenly grayed out and the black wolf held my arctic wolf to the ground. My health rapidly started disappearing. Only one tab wasn't gray.

I clicked 'surrender'. The black wolf paused for a moment and looked up. It was looking at me.

"ͥ͠Y͈̩oͥ̕u ̀̕cḁṉͧ'̟t̶̤͊ ͈͔sư̑rr͖ͤ̏e̢̊͐n͠de̴ͮ̀r͗.̫́̾"ͩ́͆It said in a deep, raspy voice.

I couldn't stop the panic that was threatening to take over my sanity. I clicked surrender again.

"ͥ͠Y͈̩oͥ̕u ̀̕cḁṉͧ'̟t̶̤͊ ͈͔sư̑rr͖ͤ̏e̢̊͐n͠de̴ͮ̀r͗.̫́̾"ͩ́͆

"Why!" I wanted to shout. As if the wolf could hear my thoughts, it said"ͪT̝͗͢hͥ͢is ̹ͫͤi̜̅͠s ͒̒͌wͥḩ̕͡a̶̿t̫̾ ̨̇ͬyo̥ͬ͘u ̘͝DES̓̎ER̗̗V̛̽E̴̅!"̫

The wolf turned back to my arctic wolf. It bared its fangs and bit her neck. I tried to look away, but remembered that I couldn't. I was forced to watch as blood dribbled onto the floor. My health bar slid down to zero.

"̙W̭͘ȧ͉͈nt̽͟ͅ ́ẗ͙́òͧ̐ tͬ̿͊r̿̐y̯ ́a̜̦̐g͜aͯin?͇̎"ͨ The wolf's raspy voice said.

I felt that slimy feeling again, like I had jumped into a pool of slime. I felt a moment of dizziness, and next thing I know,  I was fully sucked into the game, my limp arctic wolf turned into ME.

The gray tabs disappeared and I could move in any way I wanted. I wanted to cover my face and cry, but the Black wolf suddenly growled and charged. With one swift mothion, its jaws wrapped around my leg.

I cried out in pain as blood dribbled down. I tried to grab the wolf's ears but it teleported behind me. I tried to run away, but the wolf appeared in front of me. It swung its front paws at me and made a huge, bloody gash on my arm. I screamed in pain.

Suddenly the wolf disappeared and grabbed my neck from behind. Pain flared through my whole body. I wiggled around and grabbed the wolfs ears, trying to pull him off of me.

He let go and teleported away before I could grab him. I felt blood dripping from the back of my neck, and my whole body burned with pain.

I whipped around, but no one was there. Then, the wolfs jaws closed around my neck a second time.

"It... It's not my fault! I didn't know!"

I tried to get away, but it just made the pain worse. The room was spinning, and black spots were dancing around my eyes. My vision was fading....

And everything turned gray.

I felt my body turn into a black wolf, just like the other one. My vision slowly returned, but this time, everything was tinted red.

Voices filled my head, telling me to do things. I tried to cover my ears, but one of the voices told me to stop. I stopped. Another voice whispered for me to go to the back of the cave. I tried to go the other way, but I started walking to the back of the cave. I realized with horror that whatever the the voices told me to do, I did.

Suddenly, a Jammer appeared at the front of the room. She looked very rich. Too rich. Memories filled my head. I realized that these were her memories. One was of her hacking a raccoon. Another of her scamming an otter of his headdress. The memories filled me with anger. I needed to consume them. Consume the Jammers who held these memories in their mind.

One of the voices in my head hissed "Kill...."

Slowly I approached the jammer, claws extended, teeth bared.

=== ~Alternate ending~ ===

I woke up panting from my dream, panic still holding me in it's clutches. I took several deep breaths to calm myself down.

''It was just a dream. Just a dream.''

I found myself wandering over to my computer, where I turned it on. I hesitated before opening Animal Jam and logging in. I spawned in Appondale and sighed in relief. Everything was normal, and my items were all in check. There was just one thing that was still bothering me...

My hands shook as I typed the username into the search bar. The player card popped up, showing me the wolf that I knew I'd never forget. I clicked the Jam-A-Gram button and added a gift to it. I wasn't sure what came over me as I clicked my beloved fox hat, but I knew that I had to do it. As I sent the gift to the Jammer, I could feel a huge weight lifting off my chest.

I closed the player card and was prepared to shut down Animal Jam when I noticed something. Next to the cave in the corner of Appondale, I saw him. A pitch black wolf, with an empty name tag. I stared at him in shock. He stood there in silence for several seconds before suddenly leaving the server without a trace.

I had a feeling I wouldn't be seeing him again.
