Among Us downloading....
The loading bar crept across Ugo's phone screen, painfully slow. He rolled onto his stomach, chin buried in his pillow, hoodie hood pulled over his head.
This was not his idea.
Not even close.
"Come on, Ugo, you’ve been staring at your ceiling for three hours. Just play with me,” his brother insisted earlier, shoving the app store into his face. “Everyone’s playing it. Even my friends.”
“You have friends?”
“Of course I do unlike you.”
And that was how he got here. Pandemic boredom, a relentless older brother, and a brightly colored murder game that looked way too dumb to be addictive.
The download finally dinged complete. Ugo tapped the icon.
Enter username: p1kach4k
Set as default color: Orange And just like that, he entered his first public lobby.
Ten bean-shaped astronauts zipped around the screen, bumping into walls like toddlers on a sugar rush. Cyan was spinning in circles. Pink was spamming the chat with “STARTTTT.” Yellow’s username was “hatdog.”
Then there was Red. Usn: heeheehee. She was loud, even without a mic. Just through typing, Ugo could tell she had… energy.
(red) heeheehee: OK OK WAIT I’M JUST CHANGING THE EMERGENCY COOLDOWN JEEZ.
Ugo smirked. He hadn’t even played yet and he already liked annoying people like her.
The countdown hit zero.
Game starting in 5…4…3…2…1.
The screen flipped.
CREWMATE. There are 2 impostors among us.
Round One
Ugo stretched his fingers, ready to wander aimlessly. He wasn’t even two steps out of Cafeteria when he noticed Red zooming down the hallway. No tasks in sight. Suspiciously fast.
He tailed them.
Through Weapons. Down into O2. Into Storage.
Red suddenly stopped. Turned around.
heeheehee: WHY ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME. p1kach4k: sus. heeheehee: I AM DOING TASKS. p1kach4k: didn’t see u do any.
A body was reported before the argument could finish. The meeting was instant chaos.
cyan: where? green: electrical. p1kach4k: red sus. heeheehee: EXCUSE ME??? p1kach4k: running around. not doing tasks. heeheehee: BECAUSE YOU WERE STALKING ME. purple: lmao fight fight fight. cyan: idk red seems defensive. heeheehee: DEFENSIVE BECAUSE I’M INNOCENT.
The votes stacked. Red: 4. Skipped: 6.
She barely survived.
The chat box popped up one last time before silence fell again:
heeheehee: I HATE YOU.
Ugo grinned.
The round continued. Ugo wandered to Electrical (where he immediately died to the real imposter). But even as a ghost, he couldn’t stop watching Red.
She wasn’t the imposter. She really was doing her tasks. Swiping card in Admin with brutal speed. Fixing wires like her life depended on it. Raging in the chat every time someone accused her.
p1kach4k (dead chat): lol cherrybomb.
The nickname popped into his head instantly. And it stuck.
When Red finally got ejected at 6 players left—wrongly accused once again—Ugo burst out laughing on his couch. His brother frowned at him.
“You lost. Why are you laughing?”
“Because I just met the funniest person alive,” Ugo said, eyes glued to the screen where her bean floated away into space.
The next lobby loaded. Same red bean. Same username: heeheehee.
And she was already yelling.
heeheehee: I TOLD YOU IM NOT THE IMPOSTER U GUYS SO STUPID. heeheehee: AND P1KACH4K STOP JOINING MY LOBBIES. p1kach4k: hi cherrybomb. heeheehee: STOP CALLING ME THAT. p1kach4k: sounds like something a cherrybomb would say.
The other players were wheezing. ‘Ugo, why are you flirting with Red? I’m telling Mom!” his brother said Ugo didn’t even mind his brother and continued teasing.
purple: LMAO orange got u there. cyan: this is where my grandparents started their love story. heeheehee: WE ARE NOT A COUPLE. p1kach4k: they never said we were 👀
That round, she worked hard to prove herself innocent. She stuck in groups, did every visible task, even let others watch her scan. But every time she passed Orange…
p1kach4k: sus. heeheehee: I’M SCANNING IN FRONT OF YOU. p1kach4k: could be faking.
By the time the game ended (with the imposters winning while everyone was too distracted by the Orange vs. Red feud), she was practically foaming.
heeheehee: I SWEAR IF YOU JOIN AGAIN— p1kach4k: see u next round, cherrybomb 😉
