The 0th Night
« on: June 24, 2012, 05:09:32 PM »
Its been a normal day, and its looking like its going to be a normal night.  The constant drone of the cicadas reminds you that it is summer.
Not like you could forget, what with the heat.  It was so bad yesterday that you had to turn the fan on.  When you have both a fan and the AC
on, you know it's hot.  And it looks like tonight is going to be the same way.  Well, nothing you can do about, you mutter
to yourself as you get ready for bed.  It takes a while, but eventually you fall asleep.

Then you wake up.  Somehow, it feels even hotter than normal, and you can barely hear yourself think over the sound of the cicadas.
You start to look around to see what time it is, when you notice something.  Something... off.  A figure?  Yeah, a figure.  Who?  What?
You try and focus, but through the heat-haze and your sleepy eyes, you can't quite make it out.  A... A woman.  Maybe?  But her skin...
It reminds you of something.  Black and white...  In odd blotches...  Just before you blink, you think you make out a... a crossword puzzle?

A beam of sunlight hits your eyes, and you wake up.  Its pretty hot, but nothing out of the usual.  Not like it was in that dream...
You get out of bed, prepared to take on the day, when you notice something.  A newspaper, neatly folded by the side of your bed.
Curious, you pick it up and read the front page.

"Newspaper of Horror.  One issue, 1 year."
Girls do their best now and are preparing. Please wait warmly until it is ready.
