You are sitting in your room, doing your homework and listening to music with headphones while your parents are both working late. You take your headphones off to grab a drink of water when you hear drawers slamming in your parent's room. Your're being robbed! What do you want to do?
[[Hide in bathroom and lock the door]]
[[Grab your electric fly zapper from the hall closet and break for the door]]You dash across the hall, into the bathroom and click the lock shut. You wait, sweating when you hear footsteps coming down the hallway. Someone jiggles the handle of the door, before moving on to the next room. In the hallway right outside the bathroom is a phone. Do you want to call 911 and risk your life or wait it out in the bathroom but have all your family's belongings stolen?
[[Run into the hallway and call 911]]
[[Continue to wait in the bathoom]]You creep towards the closet, careful to make sure the floor doesn't creak. Opening the hall closet, you find the electric fly zapper. You eye the door and head down the stairs when one of the robbers darts out the room, holding a bag full of valuables.
[[Zap the robber]]
[[Run for the door!!!!]]You reach out and zap the robber. Zzzzzp. He pulls his hand back, but just laughs. He punches you and you fall to the ground, dropping your fly zapper in the process. He picks it up and snaps it in half. "A lot of good this thing did you!" he chuckles evily. He ties your hands behind your back and shuffles you into the garage where you see the getaway car on the driveway. He picks you up and tosses you into the trunk before slamming it shut. What do you do?
[[Cooperate and wait paitienly in the trunk]]
[[Bang on the door furiously. Maybe someone will hear you]]You run for the door and hear gunshots behind you. Luckily none of them hit you and you run down the street. You look back to see the robbers speeding away, and no doubt some of your neighbors heard the gunshots. You walk back into your house. As you explore the house you make a list of things that are gone. All your mother's jewelry, the safe holding your family's money, your mom's laptop, and your dad's prized 70 inch tv. You dial 911 and the police come. They look around the house and ask you to describe the robbers, however they say there's nothing else they can do until they catch them. Your parents get home and cry over everything they lost, 10,000 dollars in the safe plus thousands more in valuables. You feel bad, but at least you're not dead. That Christmas, you don't get any presents. Your mom had to start using the laptop they were going to give you, and you still don't have a tv. The robbers are caught, but not until they sell everything they stole and spend every last cent. Months later, after their caught, you get a knock on the door from a policeman. You have to testify in a court a week from now.
[[Testify in court]]
[[Decline]]You slowly open the door and take a step into the hallway. Right across the hallway in the guest room is one of the robber who turns around and points his gun at you. You freeze and lock eyes with the robber, who starts approaching you. What do you do?
[[Freeze]]
[[Scream, then grab the phone and call 911]]You wait for what seems like hours. When you finally get the courage to open the door and peek out you see that the robbers are gone. As you explore the house you make a list of things that are gone. All your mother's jewelry, the safe holding your family's money, your mom's laptop, and your dad's prized 70 inch tv. You dial 911 and the police come. They look around the house and ask you to describe the robbers, however they say there's nothing else they can do until they catch them. Your parents get home and cry over everything they lost, 10,000 dollars in the safe plus thousands more in valuables. You feel bad, but at least you're not dead. That Christmas, you don't get any presents. Your mom had to start using the laptop they were going to give you, and you still don't have a tv. The robbers are caught, but not until they sell everything they stole and spend every last cent. Weeks later, you are reading in your room (without a computer, you don't really have much to do) when the police start knocking on your door. They want you to testify in court a week from now.
[[Testify in court]]
[[Decline]]
You freeze and the robber starts walking towards, his loaded gun pointed at your head. "Hands up" he orders. "Cooperate and we won't shoot you." He ties your hands behind your back and shuffles you into the garage where you see the getaway car on the driveway. He picks you up and tosses you into the trunk before slamming it shut. What do you do?
[[Cooperate and wait paitienly in the trunk]]
[[Bang on the door furiously. Maybe someone will hear you]]You shreak at the top of your lungs. The robber grimaces. "Rob! We gotta leave NOW so this freak doesn't gives us away!" The other robber, apparently named Rob, comes out and says, "What do we do about him?" The robber thinks for a second, then he ties your hands behind your back and shuffles you into the garage where you see the getaway car on the driveway. He picks you up and tosses you into the trunk before slamming it shut. The car drives away and before long you're sweating out of fear, and also because it's hot in the trunk. Deathly hot. You try to come up with a plan but there's nothing you can do. The car drives for hours and hours on end through the summer night heat. Before long, you pass out. When you wake up, you're in a basement tied to the wall and you have no clue where you are. "This is your new life," says Rob the robber. Rob then heads upstairs and locks the door. You try to get loose but there's nothing you can do. You thought the robbers would come down and check on you, torture you at least but they don't. Maybe it's not their basement. Four days later, with no food and no water, you die all alone in the dark basement.
The End
Oh no!!! You got the worst possible ending. To try again, click [[Start]]You wait silently as the car drives down the familiar neighborhood streets. For hours and hours the car drives, until you hear a Rob shout, "Oh crap! The police!" They careen off the local road onto the highway, when you hear the robbers scream. "What are you doing!!!" screams Rob. "You're going the wrong direction!"
"Shut up so I can concentrate!" responds the other robber. He weaves in and out of the honking cars as you get thrown around the trunk, over and over. Finally the car spins over to the side of the road when the cops cut them off. "Hands up!" you hear as another cop opens the door and leads you into the safety of the cop car.
"Drop your weapons!" shouts a tall, bald cop. The robbers cooperate, allowing themselves to be handcuffed and lead into the car.
"Let me take you home," says the cop. "Soon your going to have to testify in court, so you need to get your rest." Eventually, all the stolen items are returned as the court date nears.
[[Testify in court]]
[[Decline]]You slam on the trunk over and over and over until your fists hurt. "You can do that all you want!" shouts the unnamed robber. "And no one will hear you!" As you start to get tired, you notice a long brush in the dark trunk, probably for clearing snow. Using the handle you pound a small hole through the back of the trunk, and pressing your mouth to the hole you scream "Help! Help! I'm being kidnapped!"
"No one can hear you through the trunk!" screams Rob but you know they must be getting nervous. Soon you see flashing red and blue lights in the distance. "Oh crap! Police!" screams Rob and the car starts speeding up. He speeds off the local road onto the highway, but a police car cuts him off as he gets on the ramp. "Get your hands up!" shouts a police man, while another one unlocks the trunk and leads you into the police car. You see both robbers reach for their guns and the policeman shoot. The robbers are dead. You soon get all your stolen items back and you continue on with your life, unharmed physically but scarred mentally from the harrowing experience.
The End
You got a pretty good ending, but there are better ones. To try again, click [[Start]]For hours you sit there, listening to legal jargon, waiting for your turn to testify. Finally, the judge calls you out to testify. You prepare to tell your story, but you're not sure what to say.
[[Tell the true story]]
[[Claim they tried to kill you]]You tell your story, and the judge nods his head. It's the exact same story he's heard from the accused. Finally, the judge announces their sentences. Both of them get five years with a chance of parole after one. You head home, satisfied that the robbers are in jail.
[[Two years later]]"They ran into my room, and fired bullets at me. Luckily, neither of them could shoot a target if it was 50 feet wide and all the bullets went right out my open window, which is why there's no bullet marks on my wall. When they ran out of bullets, they punched me over and over and tied me up as a last resort." Suprisingly, the jury sympathizes with you and chooses to believe your story, despite the robbers' tearful protests. The judge announces they were sentenced to 20 years of prison with no chance of parole. You may have lied, but it did the trick. You can live with peace of mind, knowing the men who robbed your house are in prison.
You got the best ending in the game. If you want to try again anyway to play one of the other possible endings, click [[Start]]. However, it doesn't get any better than this.Two years later, you're heading to school when a newspaper catches your eye. "Rob Jones and Garrett Williams given parole after two years of prison" You're stunned. You read the rest of the article, and find they were released early for good behavior. You go to school, and on your way home, you're not suprised to see the headlines of the latest newspaper. Someone got robbed.
THE END
To try again for a better ending, click [[Start]]"No thanks," you reply and shut the door before heading back to your room. The trial still lingers in your mind, and one day, you see it on the headlines as you pass the newsstand on the way to school. "Two men involved in local robbery released". Your heart sinks. If only you had testified in court, there would've been enough evidence to put them away for years. You tell yourself its no big deal, but you can't help but feel guilty when you walk home weeks later to see the latest headline. Someone was robbed, and if not for your laziness, the robbers would've been in jail.
