The lake that had contained a sunken train carriage had now collapsed into the sea. Unfamiliar with the layout of the train, we compiled a 3D environment from the many Vines that were taken here. “That’s dumb” someone commented. Whenever I shone my flashlight to the far end of the carriage, an amorphous blob with eyes would peek in and out of our sight. This was apparently a freshwater octopus that was in the original lake. It seemed afraid of us as it remembered our last encounter.

I walked up the stairs with my VR set until we were outside. The other people were talking about if they’ve managed to convey Christian architecture on the set. “The story isn’t even Christian. It’s not immersive.” I blurted out.

“But it is” one of them turned to me.

I weakly replied that I meant it wasn’t Christian as we know it. I looked back at the buildings now from across the road. Multiple sections of the buildings were swinging back and forth. All of the moving parts had large stone faces carved into them. The man next to me saw that his daughter was on one of the swings and got crushed, her limp corpse now being dragged on the road as others tried to assess the situation.

Gravity was becoming unpredictable. On the roadway, you either fell to the right or left and there was no telling which way was which. “This is my chance!” I said as I threw a large bowling ball onto the road, expecting to see it flying in the air from my perspective. I ended up hitting a man in a dark blue suit in the head by accident and consequently killing him.

“Whatever” I thought, “death is certain for all of us in a few minutes” as the anomalous gravity effect started to spread.
