White Online-Novel

''Hospital?'' Darth raised his head and looked at the large building in front of him with a frown. Then he noticed the destroyed cars.

''Where are we?'' He asked and looked in the other direction, where a weird-looking forest was located, ''Are we... Not in World of White anymore?''

''Hmm.'' Isaac narrowed his eyes. He grabbed his Musket Rifle from the Inventory and aimed it towards the forest.

''What are you doing?'' Darth asked after Isaac suddenly took his gun.

''Testing something,'' Isaac said and took a calm breath. He put his finger on the trigger and gently squeezed it.

*BANG*

Darth already had his ears covered, which blocked most of the loud sound.

Only a smoking barrel was left as the bullet flew through the air like a missile.

They watched as the bullet was about to enter the forest, but then...

*BAM*

A hole appeared in front of the forest like a crack appeared in the air, but Isaac knew that it was nothing like that.

''A fake forest?'' Darth frowned.

Isaac nodded and turned around, ''We are still in World of White, but we are in a fake space, which was made to resemble our world.''

The hole in front of the forest showed a rocky wall behind the fake forest, which was only painted on the walls to make the space look more realistic.

It wasn't definitely done by a person because even the sky was painted, which caused Isaac to think.

Did Arthur do it... Or someone else, and why?

Darth nodded, and then he asked, ''If this is hide and seek... Why the hospital?''

Isaac shrugged, ''One way to find out.''

Darth looked at the windows of the hospital and felt a chill going on his spine, ''This place is creepy as fuck.''

The windows only showed darkness, and he almost felt like someone was watching him, but he shrugged it off as his imagination.

Isaac emptied the chamber and waited for the Musket Rifle to finish reloading. Once it was done reloading, he put the bullets back on the chamber and strapped it on his back.

He had some information about the guns, and he knew that the chambers in rifles should only have space for one bullet, but his Musket Rifle has exactly five spots for bullets.

It was either Arthur's own invention for the world, or it was done to make the game simpler.

Like the Spellcaster and Healer's class, their spells work with voice command, and they were one of the simplest classes to use, but of course, those classes have their own difficulties.

Darth took a glimpse of his quiver and sighed, ''I have only three explosion arrows left. I should have asked for the poison arrows, but apparently, they weren't tested yet.''

Isaac chuckled and stretched his limbs, ''Can they make me a few explosion bullets? I would pay.''

Darth cracked his knuckles and said, ''If we get First Clear, you get for free.''

''Deal,'' Isaac said with a chuckle and finished his preparations.

Darth cracked his neck, and both of them started approaching the entrance of the hospital.

The entrance was pair of broken glass doors with papers and trash littering the entrance.

Darth quietly entered the hospital. He turned his head towards Isaac and whispered, ''Are we hiders or seekers?''

Isaac shrugged and dodged the broken glass on the floor, ''Not sure.'' He whispered and thought it would make sense for them to be seekers.

They have guns, after all. They have no reason to hide if they can just blast the seekers into a bloody mist.

They reached the receptionist desk, which had empty seats and broken computers. The lights on the ceiling flickered once in a while, giving the whole hospital a creepy vibe.

Darth kicked away the fliers and noticed something on the floor. He crouched and finally saw what it was after lights flickered one more time.

It was a small bloodstain, which was already dried up.

His face slightly paled, ''Wraith, I don't think this will be as innocent as we thought.''

Isaac looked at him with questioning looks and then a door, which was slightly ajar in the distance.

He unstrapped his gun and pointed it towards the door. He started slowly approaching it, while Darth also put two arrows on the bowstring.

Darth was still warily looking around them, so they won't get sneak attacked.

Isaac arrived at the door and slowly opened it, which caused a creaking noise to echo on the corridors of the hospital.

*Creak*

Isaac peeked inside and saw a hospital room with an empty bed and a broken window. On the floor, there were scratching marks with walls dyed in dried blood.

He stopped peeking and returned to Darth with a serious look on his beautiful face, ''You are right... I have a feeling that we aren't seekers... But someone who did this is.''

Darth's face became serious as well and went straight towards the receptionist desk, while Isaac followed closely behind.

''Maybe there are clues,'' Darth said and started going through the shelves and cabinets.

Isaac tried to use the broken computers, but everything was made to be completely unusable.

Darth kept throwing items out of the shelves and cabinets until he finally saw something that might be useful.

He grabbed a notebook and started reading it through while trailing his fingers on the coarse paper.

Isaac stopped trying to use the computers and grabbed one of the fliers. He started reading it, but the only thing that was mentioned was the hospital.

He rubbed his forehead and thought these fliers might be a clue, but he couldn't figure it out.

Darth went through the notebook quickly, and once he entered the final page, half of the page was stained in dried blood.

He had to crunch his face into a concentration so he could understand the words and managed to read a few reads with some difficulty.

''Wraith.'' Darth gulped and had a cold sweat pouring on his back.

''Hmm?'' Isaac looked at him with a questioning face and then saw the bloody handprint on the notebook.

''The notebook said the identity of the person who did this...'' Darth said with a shaky tone and dropped the notebook down on the floor.

''Who?'' Isaac felt like it won't be anything good after seeing Darth's pale face.

Darth gulped and uttered the words with force.

''Baba Yaga.''

Some distance away from them.

A shadowy figure with extremely long limbs looked at the two figures with her long tongue swaying back and forth. Suddenly a creepy smirk appeared on her face, and a nametag appeared above her tall figure.
