As I woke up on a bitter November Night, I realized that I need to check my Gmail because of my coworker. He said that he was going to email me a pitch for a story concept. I booted up my computer and was about to go on my Gmail when suddenly I realized that there was a program that was installed called Alice. It took me a moment to realize that it was an old software that was made in 1994 and I used it In a middle school tech class in 2019. I remember it simply because it was that bad. But I was curious and my work could wait a bit. I booted up the software and started to mess around in it. When I started it up there was no tutorial which was weird but I assume someone I invited over a couple of days ago downloaded it maybe Lucas we both joked about when we were kids. After I played the pre-loaded animation called Defending NapTime, it gave me an error message that I saw a lot. But when I clicked on more details I didn't see that it was a wrong audio file, but something strange. It said, "She is coming for you, please leave the software while you still can." But I shrugged it off, Lucas was very good at javascript which is what the software was running on. So I kept on going. When I was about to save another error came up on the screen. but not the normal error lady came up but it was Alice and it said, " I am giving you a chance to leave, if you don't you will pay for it." Once again I shrugged it off, but after that, the software started glitching out, and it made me wonder. Is the software possessed because No one, NOT even Lucas can make this kind of glitch effect. I then heard a quiet eerie voice whisper into my ear, "I'm coming..." I wasn't wearing headphones and my computer audio was muted so I ran into my bathroom in a complete panic and was evaluating my sanity. I didn't take my pills so I was questioning if this was all in my head but then something happened that made me sure that this wasn't just in my head. Alice bursted through the door and I ran into my kitchen and grabbed my Butcher's Knife and ran to the bathroom. I thought to myself, "The moment she comes close I kill her with this. As she walked closer I broke down the bathroom door and swung the knife with my eyes closed and I heard a scream. I opened my eyes and saw her injured on the floor. I felt relief, but only briefly because in a couple of moments a shadowy figure rose out of the now deceased host that was "Alice" I decided that I could die a coward or die a hero, I chose to die a hero. I took a swing and then I woke up. I was in a white room in a straitjacket and next to me was a man who looked crazy. I asked him "How long have I been here?" He said "Six Months." As I backed into a corner the scientists backed away from the screen and I let out a Blood Curtailing scream. And then I saw that this man was the demon all along. He was Alice and he spread his virus to me and before I knew I was The New "Alice". I was then In a room I found familiar. It was my old tech lab. And my teacher got a new Notification. for an animation software called. Jay Animation. I was truly one with the Demon.
