A blue tile

Looking intently at the die as it rolled across the coffee table, Sabrina was shooting for a good roll. She didn't understand the game at all, but knew that in any game that involves dice, rolling high equals rolling good. It came to a disappointing halt as a mere three eyes pointed tauntingly back up at her.

"Well fuck"

"Language!"

Guh. She's gonna ruin this whole night, isn't she?

Sabrina made no attempt in hiding the disdain she felt for her older sibling, shooting her a very fierce glare before leaning in to move her game piece to the appropriate tile. Just before her fingers made contact however, the piece seemed to morph into a new shape. It's previously semi-phallic appearance now resembling that of a person. But not just any person, an exact copy of Sabrina. Even her current outfit and hairstyle was masterfully replicated on it's form.

"What the hell? Did anyone else see that??"

"Did it just change? Look! It's you! Whaaat?!"

Detective Sam pointing out the obvious, clearly not helping anyone who's been paying attention for the past twenty seconds.
Before the group ever got an answer as to how the piece had managed to morph all of a sudden, the tall pile of blue playing cards lit up.

"I think it want's you to draw a card babe.."

Once again stating the obvious. At least this time it was justified as the blue lighting emitted from the pile had passed Sabrina by completely unnoticed. With a shaky hand, she reached out for a blue card, picking it up slowly with her dainty fingers. As she flipped it around, text began forming on its face. As though the print was being written real-time.

"O-EM-GEE. This is super freaky. It's writing itself!"

"And what does it say, exactly?"

Caitlyn's tone was curios, if ever a little condescending.

The brave one, going ahead to start the round
What about a little something from the lost and found?
Though your current attire is a sight for eyes oh so sore
You could certainly get by with flaunting what you got a little more.

Do you continue or chicken out?

"The hell is this Allan Edgar Chow-shit?"

"It's Edgar Allan Poe, Sabrina.."

"Whatever! Just- Please shut up already!"

"..I think you're supposed to say one or the other?"

Troy knew perfectly well that he wasn't the most welcome person in the current gathering. In fact, there were probably a handful there who'd rather prefer he died than sully their little get-together with his filthy presence. Still he dared take the word when he believed he had something to contribute.

"Well.. I guess I'll just have to continue, right? We're here to play after all.."

That's all it took. The card vanished from her very hands upon hearing those fateful words. Briefly after, her clothes began shifting, changing color, texture and form until settling into something entirely different.

The shock on her face when Sabrina realized what had happened spoke volumes. In just a brief moment, her bright red jeans had become a pair of skimpy denim shorts. Her somewhat respectable crop top also being no more. In it's place was a much more revealing, green sports bra looking thing.

"WHAT THE FUCK!?"

Caitlyn was about to call her sister out on language once more before she saw the look on Sabrina's face, then thought better of it.

"Your clothes babe.. They're all different! What's going on here?!? Is this game magic?!?!"

Sam ever so helpful with his insightful commentary. If he hadn't been such a pretty-boy he probably would've caught a lot more flack for his apparent inability to conceive what was obvious and not. Not that he was particularly dumb, he did however often find himself a little puzzled when unexpected things happened. Such as his girlfriend's entire wardrobe changing in the blink of a moment.

"Ya think?! Hell yes it's magic. Did you just SEE what happened to my jeans? They cost a fucking fortune! These clothes look like they were sold at the salvation army or something!"

"Or in the lost and found.."

Breaking her silence, Barbara's voice was trembling. Her expression that of genuine terror. Seeing how her daughter's entire getup had degraded the way it did. Her fear wasn't that shallow. No, Barbara's first thoughts were regarding what the manual had said. If she remembered correctly, blue was for clothes, which made sense. Sabrina just had her clothes altered completely. The scary bit was however not the downgrade in attire. It was the prospect of the other categories. Face, body ..and the mind.

"So what, do we just not play? Apparently the game can change much more than just our clothes!"

Harry, despite his looks, was actually quite the scaredy cat. His imposing figure and great physique did nothing in the face of strong, genuine magic.

"I'm afraid that's.. not an option."

"The fuck you mean "Not an option"!? It quite clearly is. Just don't roll the die, right!?"

"Well, yes. But actually no. Say's here that each player once initiated in the game has to complete at least one round."

"Fine, so we all chicken out. My wardrobe is short of a cute top and jeans, but that's nothing compared to losing our sanity."

"Sure, that should be within the rules."

"Great! I'll just head upstairs and change out of this trampy outfit, you guys go on and finish the round so we can get rid of this damn game."

Everyone looked at each other, none wanting to be the first to go.
Following the group's best enactment of a Mexican standoff, Troy of all people spoke up, offering to go on ahead first. Despite his pathetic looks, he was more man than both Sam and Harry when face to face with a dangerous situation. Probably one of the few up-sides to experiencing extensive bullying throughout his upbringing. He had thick skin and a strong will to have made it through all that adversity.
Right as he went to roll the die however, a panicked scream could be heard from upstairs. Before any of them got the chance to investigate the source of the kerfuffle, Sabrina came rushing down the stairs..

And were off with the first round! I hope you're as excited as I am for this new branch. With more planning and arguably better image generation, I hope to improve upon the previous story. If you're especially eager to get into the action of this new branch, several chapters have already been published over on my Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/Felixfalck) for all subscribers!
