Today was supposed to be normal, damn it all.

You, your friends, Rocky, Liam, and Alex and your girlfriend, Hannah, went to a Halloween dance tonight. It was school sponsored, and it had all the pretenses to make a special night-a dress-up competition, some good food, and a live band playing.

At least, everyone thought it would be innocent.

Halfway through the dance, you noticed a sick, wet, almost pulsating noise, as if the maker was some organic horror. You looked up to the ceiling, and as you did, you saw a sudden hail of squid-like fungi slowly descending from the ceiling. With some horrible noise you couldn't even describe, they settled on people's heads-they screamed, oh so damn loud they screamed, until they fell silent, one by one. It was just you now. No one else. Just you.

You had barely managed to stay away from these squid-like creatures. You had watched them all fall into a deep trance, under the control of these things. And suddenly, they turned to face you.

"OBEY THE HIVEMIND." This they began repeating.

Slowly, they lurched towards you. In a frantic horror you left, terrified by how quickly this night had turned on you. Awaiting you outside, much to your horror, was more of the controlled...

You don't know what this is. You don't know who's suddenly taken control of your friends. You know nothing. There are only a few options. Make the most of them.
