The Shadow Plague

______________________________________________________

There was once an old vampire in Roblox. It lived in a small ruin, with an underground room. One day, a Robloxian arrived to kill it, after hearing about it. It begged and pleaded, but he did not listen, and staked through its left ventricle to kill it. After searching the vampire's residence, he found a slightly old piece of paper with a poem on it. He began to read:

_______________________________________________________________________________________

Bing bong bing, went the bell,

with dogs growling like

a creature from Hell.

Somewhere in the distance,

a cloud was approaching.

The cloud of the Shadow Plague.

Inside was a dark creature,

a vampire by name.

Which waited for many years,

now resistant to Light's bane.

Now it has risen,

awoken by the plague.

It flew into Bloxburg,

the thirst making it feel pain.

But then, it was refreshed as it

opened a 'Bloxian's vein.

"'Blood cult murders'", said

the Roblox News, "as the body was

drained of all fluids." Little did they

know they had an unwelcome visitor,

a creature beyond their darkest fears.

The vampire disguised itself, and

went to a hospital. It was closed,

except for a lone policeman.

Its thirst was unquenched, and

when it strolled over to him,

his fist clenched.

"Who are you, sir?" he asked.

"I am Dr Alucard, and I'm here to examine 

your throat", it rasped. "Why, what's wrong with it, Dr?"

''"This." '' And it clamped its fangs onto his neck,

drinking and drinking 'till he was drained as heck.

Over time, the infected grew, overhead

a giant bat flew. From country to country,

from town to city, Robloxians served the

Vampire Lord. The plague was supreme.

Evil ran rampant, even in the daylight,

with Roblox News, with blood being

Meepcity's national dish. Survivors

hid and armed themselves, but they

did not last. In fact, they fell quite

fast.

And so, Robloxia fell to the

Shadow Plague, the last healthy

'Bloxians have died. And as

they lay, an Infected thought

to herself, "Why?"

As he finished reading, the Robloxian had a mild coughing fit. He brushed it off as a coincidence, and walked out of the late vampire's lair. But as he departed, a dark-purple cloud of dust followed him, as though alive.

The next day, the Shadow Plague began to make itself felt.
