As Zayne sat glued to the Xbox, his fingers dancing over the controller, you could hear him muttering curses under his breath. He had been playing for hours, locked in a fierce battle with unknown players online.

The game was intense, and the other players weren't holding back. They hurled insults and taunted him, trying to throw him off his game. Zayne's face was contorted in concentration, his hand gripping the controller tight as he maneuvered through the virtual battlefield.

Suddenly, the sound of an explosion echoed through the room as Zayne's character got hit. He let out a frustrated grunt, slamming his hand down on the controller in annoyance. "God damn it!" he exclaimed, his voice low and tight.
