"The forum story"

Lets play a game, this might take off. Yet it may not.

Lets write a forum story. I used to play this game on long road trips. Used to be rather fun. One person writes the first line of a story (or 2 lines) and then the next person continues it with their own line or 2. Then someone else writes the next line. It will be naturally crap and will take may twists and turns. Before you add your line though copy whatever has come before it so we can keep track of what is going on.

First line:

"Why me, what have I done" A sense of horror clung onto my every word.

"You have heard too much" replied the ghoulish whispers. I felt a chill run up and down my vertebrate as if my mind wanted me to flee to safety, but my body was curious. I felt my hand rise as if drawn to a mysterious force. My fist clenched without my will, my lips parted and an absent voice uttered some words.....

It's easier to understand as a whole if quoted in its entirety.

Nobody gives any regard to statistics anyway.
