A Gamer's Shadow

Hello, my name is Emilia. I have been a gamer ever since I was around 4-5 years old. I've always loved to play mario, sonic, and pokemon, until recently. Around a few weeks ago, I was just playing my gamecube game called Super Mario Sunshine for old time's sake. Everything seemed normal, until I noticed some NPC that was all black, no eyes no nothing. I knew that there were no NPCs that were all black in the game so I decided to just pretend I never saw it and I moved on. A little after I walked away from the strange NPC, I saw another one right in front of Mario. That's when I thought that this was no glitch or anything of the sort...something wasn't right with my game. So I took out Super Mario Sunshine and instead decided to play Sonic Adventure 2 Battle. Once again, everything seemed normal at first until I saw an enemy that was all black with no face, so I decided to just run past him. Then when I completed the level I noticed that Sonic (the character I was playing as) was slowly turning into a completely black silhouette that had no face. At that point I was starting to get a little nervous but mostly angry because I didn't want my gamecube to turn into a complete glitch fest. So I decided to give it one more try so I took out Sonic Adventure 2 Battle and put in Pokemon Colosseum. After battling a couple of trainers in the Battle Mountain challenge, the next platform had, you guessed it, that same goddamn black silhouette with no face! I decided to go up to the silhouette and talk to it because I've had enough of this weirdness and messed up stuff that it was doing to my gamecube and my games. So when I talked to it a text box appeared saying: "Hello Luke (that was my character's name), I bet you're wondering why you have seen me in all of your gamecube games so far?" I was just sitting there, too angry to be shocked at his dialogue. Then he continued on to say this: "You see, I'm not just a regular black silhouette...I am your shadow...Emilia." That was when I was officially shocked and became wide-eyed. " How in the whole wide world did this game just say my name?! And why did it say that it was 'my shadow'?" I said aloud to no one in particular. Then the shadow (that's what I'll call it from now on) continued on with its dialogue without me even pressing the A button. "I am your worst fears, I know your thoughts and nightmares, I know all about the dark and messed up side of your very mind... shocking isn't it Emilia?" So I immediately threw my controller onto the floor and turned off my gamecube, not even bothering to check if the controller was broken or not, I ran out of the room and went up to my bedroom. Ever since then that shadow has been haunting my nightmares ever since that day, and I have not played my gamecube ever since. So next time you see a black silhouette with no face in one of your games, you better watch out.
