Do not pass go

It starts with two best friends.

Let's call them A and B.

A loves puzzles, but found themselves at a loss for where to find new ones.

B stepped up, creating the most wonderful and fanatical games, fit to give A pause.

One day, A received a call. B had created their best game yet!

B was estatic, and couldn't wait to finish the drive there to tell A all about it.

And then- B screamed. The blaring noises threatened to shatter A's eardrums. The line cut off.

B was reported dead a few minutes later.

Cause: Car accident.

A was heartbroken.

But what they didn't realize

was that the game had already begun

and maybe B wasn't as dead as they had thought.
