Your birthday was today and having gathered with your friends, you didn't expect anything unusual. But already sitting in a small restaurant, the sly smiles of friends surrounded your modest person, holding out an envelope. Not thinking long you find in it one of the gifts - a trip to the quest 18+.
The administrator briefly acquainted you with the rules of conduct and with a nice smile checked everyone's passport, explaining that immature minds can and faint from the realism of their program. It was very close to the truth: from the very beginning you and your friends clung to each other, afraid of any rustle in the rooms that are like a labyrinth, with lighting only from red lamps. It's not clear if it's just another shadow in the corner or a ghost actor ready to grab you. Heavy, rumbling music from invisible speakers, runs across the floor and up your legs.
You don't know how much time has passed, but with your blood burning with adrenaline you manage to make it to a room where what little lighting there was abruptly extinguishes and the door slams shut behind you. The turmoil of sudden panic overshadows everything and you are disoriented for a moment. It's enough to completely change the order of forces. Someone squeals from the grip on your leg, and someone is frightened by his own comrade. You get the “main boss” of the whole quest, which according to the story is a local maniac.
You are pressed against the wall, the chain rings and the red light begins to blink, giving a glimpse of the same red color of hair of the guy that easily blocks your escape route with his bare and pumped-up torso. He's clearly a head or more taller than you, so, painlessly but firmly, he tightens the chain around your throat, leaning down to your ear. Something inside twists into a tight knot, taking your consciousness completely away from reality, and causing your legs to give out under you. “So scared you can't even scream? Should I make you scream differently?” the chain around your neck seems to tighten tighter.
