GONE.TXT

I should never have opened that file on my computer. But now it's too late. My fate is sealed. It all started a few days ago. I suppose I should tell you now because I don't have much time. He has already come. Already informed me of what I must do and what my fate will be if I do not do this.

What do I have to do? I have got to run. Run where, I do not know. All I know is that I must run - for the rest of my life if I am unlucky. And all this because of that stupid file. I suppose I should start at the beginning, but where do I start? I guess I should start at school - that is the place where it all began, after all.

I am a high school student, a little too old to be believing this stuff but let me assure you that I didn't - at first. Note the DIDN'T and not the DON'T. One of my friends is really into ghost stories. They always have another one for me and my other comrades. We never believed them of course, but this time we made that fatal mistake. I don't quite remember the story she told us but I'm sure you'll catch on as we progress into the story. As I said, I don't have much time.

In a week's time, however, they came to school looking pale and frightened. We tried to ask her what the matter was but she just shook her head and refused to say anything. It took another three days before she was ready to tell us what was bothering her.

"That story," she had said.

"That story I told you... I just found out something about it." And then she refused to say any more.

The next day she didn't come to school. Me and my other friends were feeling a little anxious, especially after what she had told us yet we shrugged it off as a mere coincidence.

The phone rang when we were home from school. It was our friends number and typically I picked up the phone and heard only one sentence.

"DO NOT OPEN THE FILE."

I tried to ask more but the receiver went dead. The next day at school, people were whispering and looking at me and my group of cronies. I asked one of them what the fuss was about and they told me of the rumour. Apparently, the friend had been killed in a murder a few days earlier. Limbs torn out and organs crushed, I had been told, all while she was alive.

As you can imagine, it was too horrible for me to focus on and those phantom words I had heard on the phone just kept haunting me. I had to see what she talking about. Boy do I wish I hadn't. And I wish even more that she hadn't shared that story with me. Because now I am going to die.

I don't know how, but I just am. If you care for your life, I would advice you to stop reading here. If you are lucky, nothing will happen.

But you don't know that. If a random file, however, marked GONE.TXT appears on your computer, DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT proceed to open it. It is pure evil. Looking at it will trigger everything that happens to you.

That day, I searched my computer for files. I had read creepypastas before and I knew a lot of the time they were out in broad sight, but no. This one was hidden, quite cleverly in fact.

I only managed to find it with the search. It had no significant title, merely GONE, with the file type next to it. Of course, my curiosity got the better of me and I clicked.

Big mistake. Here is what the message said. Do NOT read the following, or your life WILL be at risk, especially after reading all this.

He comes.

He warns.

She comes.

She kills.

Knocks seven times.

Organs.

Heart.

Eyes.

Skeleton.

Soul.

Limbs.

Mind.

You are gone.

RUN...

Now that you have read it, there is nothing more I can do for you. You know the story, you know the text. Is this true? I guess you'll just have to wait the seven days to find out... I warned you. I really tried to warn you, but I needed to tell someone.

Somebody, before she got me. I don't want to go into any more detail of what she will do to you. It is too horrible. The message explains it all. You will be warned, yes by a man before she comes. This is your only warning. Your only warning to get out of there and run. Do not take your family with you, do not tell anyone where you are going. Just RUN.
