Choose Your Own Adventure - Part 7. $5 Reward (Patreon)

Bingo Nights looks up at you with anticipation. Longing, even. You hold the ballerina’s slipper, pale, off-white, shimmering in the moon-sunlight in your carrot hand.

‘I can have that?’

You nod, and drop it into his snout. He drops it, fiddles with it, and then digs in. You watch as he chews, his heart full of joy, his stomach becoming full of old haunted shoe.

You are glad Bingo Nights is your friend, your colleague, your partner in shoe heisting crime, the developer of your forthcoming video game experience. You think about what type of video game you will make. One with romance, for sure -

Then, Bingo Nights halts his scarfing and looks up at you. He’s not drooling like he usually does. He’s not smiling like he usually does. He just stares. His mouth doesn’t open, but a voice springs from the ether -

‘WHY DID YOU RELEASE ME’

It’s not a question, which is good because you don’t have an answer. The voice sounds like that of an ancient abomination crossed with a young girl, not your dog friend Bingo at all.

‘I AM VERY ANGRY, AND I WON’T RELEASE YOUR DOG FRIEND UNTIL I’M NOT AS ANGRY ANYMORE’

That’s not a question either. You’re pretty sure, given your knowledge of pop culture and how things go in these types of things, that this is an exorcism type situation.

‘THIS IS AN EXORCISM TYPE SITUATION, AND THAT CLICHE MAKES ME EVEN MORE ANGRY’

So, yep. It’s time for you to step up to the plate and exorcise your friend Bingo Nights from the ancient ballerina demon that has possessed him. What will you do?
