January 15: I was bored today, so I decided to play some Phantom Forces. I’m a pretty high rank, I recently ranked up and unlocked the DBV12, and the P90. I loved the P90 and was using it today. The map we were on was Desert Storm. Everything was going normal. I was on a pretty good killstreak, five kills already. I know that may not be much for some, but it was for me. I had just ran into a small house and got a sixth kill, but as I was checking what gun the person I just killed had, I was headshotted. When it showed who it was, it showed someone flying. They were zooming around the map. They had an Intervention sniper and the killfeed was filled with his name. I hadn’t even noticed the killfeed.
“Great,” I thought to myself.
People seemed pretty angry in the chat too. There were multiple messages of people saying things like, “Hacker!” And “Kick him!” Almost immediately there was a votekick started for the hacker. I pressed Y on my keyboard, which tallied my vote for kicking the hacker. I’ve noticed that in Phantom Forces when an obvious hacker has a votekick started for them, they get kicked out of the server almost instantly. That was what happened today too. The number of “Yes” votes skyrocketed. Soon, the “Console” put a message in the chat.
Console: “Titanboi22 has been kicked from the server”
After this everything went back to normal. I was slightly upset that my killstreak was gone. After that round ended, the next map chosen was Crane Site. Now, I decided to use a Remington 700 for this round because I loved to hide up on the tall crane and snipe people. My Remington 700 had a skeleton grip and a laser on it, but that’s not important. What’s important is what I saw. I had just gotten up on top of the crane, and was making sure that nobody else was on it. There wasn’t anybody. Good, that meant that I had all the sniping to myself. So I had gotten to the end of the crane that overlooked pretty much everything. I mostly looked at the top of the two massive buildings in the middle of the map, because there’s often enemy snipers on it for me to kill. I was looking through my scope when I saw someone on the ground. They didn’t have a light blue circle above their head which meant that they were an enemy. But when I moved my sites over to the enemy. I realized that it wasn’t a normal player. It still had the same shape of the Phantom Forces models, but it was all black, and it wasn’t holding a weapon either that I could see. I figured it was just a glitch, so I aimed my scope at the enemy's head. I fired, but just as I did, the character disappeared, and the bullet missed.
“What the,” I said to myself quietly. I stopped aiming to chamber a new bullet, and then went back to aiming. I moved my scopes sights to the top of one of the large buildings. And on top, was the same character I had just seen. All black and no gun. What was scary was he was staring right at me. I once again aimed at his head and fired. But once again, just like last time, he disappeared just in time for my bullet to miss. I was scared, but I kept playing.
A few minutes later, I had died and was now on the ground with my P90, looking around. Suddenly, a votekick was started for someone named awesomepants. The votekick was started by someone named “Death”. The reason was just the word “Kill”. I pressed N on my keyboard, which tallied my vote for “no”. Several other people did and the number of votes to votekick the player went into the negatives. The person who had the votekick started for them put something in the chat. “He’s a troll.” Well, I figured that this was obvious. But just as awesomepants put that message in the chat, the numbers on the votekick went up very fast. Almost as fast as when there’s an actual hacker on the server. When the numbers got high enough, the “console” put something in the chat.
Console: awesomepants has been kicked from the server
“What just happened?” I quickly typed in the chat. Everybody else seemed confused too.
Garybot221: Is he hacking to make the votekick numbers go up?
Mattplays247: He’s hacking! Votekick him!
But as this was happening, I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was the same black character I had seen twice before. Soon, a votekick came in for the character Death. Reason, trolling. I pressed Y, and so did many other people. But suddenly, the numbers went down in the negatives, and the votekick ended. I was legitimately scared, so I logged off.
January 16: I logged back into Roblox. When I got to my home page, I clicked on Phantom Forces. I still remembered what had happened the day before, but I still enjoyed the game. When I joined, the map was Blizzard Revamp. I spawned in with my P90 setup, but I immediately noticed that something was wrong. The map coloration was off, it was all black and red. The sky was red with the moon being black. All of the trees were a mix of red and black, and so was all of the landscape. What was even scarier though, was what I saw in the distance. In the distance was the same black character that was in the server I was on yesterday. It stared at me, not moving. Nobody else around seemed to notice him. I aimed at him, and fired. I already knew what would happen, he teleported away. But this time, it teleported my character too. I landed on top of a building which overlooked pretty much the entire map. But right in front of me, was the black character. His username appeared above his head, it’s letters were distorted, but I could still read it. It read Death.
Suddenly, a votekick was started by Death. Once again, just like yesterday, the reason was just one word. Kill. Once again, the numbers skyrocketed.

I aimed my P90 at Death’s head and fired multiple bullets at him. But this time, instead of teleporting away, he multiplied. His clones surrounded me, I tried to escape but I couldn’t. I tried to leave, but it wouldn’t let me. Then, I heard something in my headphones.
“They’re dying.”
I was terrified. I didn’t know how Death was talking to me. Because I figured at this point that it was him.
“They die when they’re kicked.” Death said.
Then, another votekick was started.

And another.
Console: Fortnitegamer27 has been kicked from the server.
Then, I was teleported back to my spawn. I was really shaken up, and I tried to leave again. Thankfully, it let me. I decided to take a really long break from Roblox.
March 1: I decided to log back into Roblox. I had finally gotten over my previous experience. When I got to my home page, I noticed that I had a new message. I clicked on it. It was from Death. The message read: You shouldn’t have left.
Then, it teleported me into Phantom Forces. I frantically tried to exit, but it wouldn’t let me. Once I spawned in, I decided to just play as normal. Maybe Death would let me leave after I played? So I continued playing. The map was Mall Revamp. I was running around when I came across an enemy. They were standing by a window with a sniper rifle, aiming out the window so I had the element of surprise. I began firing on full auto at them. As they were hit they turned to me, but as they did they died. The body fell backwards onto the wall and slid down, blood smeared the wall. But this wasn’t normal, this wasn’t the normal circles of red that always shows up. It actually looked like blood. Then, I heard a familiar voice in my headphones. “I’m back.” It was Death’s voice.
I turned around, and there he was. Staring at me. Then, a votekick started. And another, and another, until the entire lobby was gone. I didn’t know what to do. I figured the least I could do was question him.
“What are you?” I put in the chat.
“I am Death.” He said. And then he started floating upwards. And then, he left.
