Now lets jump into today's solo story of the Scariest Borderlands Creepypastas titled - Console
Me
The following creepypasta is based on a story written by Azurai Temcev aka PanDuh on the
creepypasta fandom page.
They begin the story by saying that after saving for some time they finally were able
to buy themselves a new gaming console and a few games.
They purchased a brand new Xbox 360 and then some pre-owned games from a nearby store.
When they finally got home they popped in the first game, it was Borderlands.
After a day or so they managed to work through the main campaign mode and had moved on to
doing the side missions.
At this point in the game, the bandits, skags and most enemies were becoming increasingly
difficult to beat.
He attributes this to the enemies being at the same level as him and just not having
the necessary firepower to take them down.
Now becoming frustrated with the game he shouted - Damn, why is this so hard?
All I want is a weapon strong enough to be able to kill things!-
In that moment he found a supply crate which contained his first orange weapon, being one
of the more rarer items you come across in the game for those of you who don't know.
He shrugged off this odd coincidence of him finding the crate after yelling at the game
and moved on.
While he was engaging in a battle against the army of Spiderants and their Queen he
shouted once more - Why is this so hard?
- Again something strange happened.
The sniper that he had suddenly could kill every enemy with a single hit.
Just one hit, not even critical damage.
Even the Queen herself which has the second highest health among the Spiderants just dropped
from the shot.
When they were finished with playing Borderlands they wanted to move on to another game they
had purchased.
Except while on the dashboard the gamer hears a voice say their user name.
As he slowly looked up to the screen wanting to see if perhaps he accidentally joined a
party, he realized that something else was going on.
The voice spoke again - Hello sir?
Are you there?
- He put down his controller and ran into his kitchen.
After splashing some water in his face and taking a few deep breaths he returned to the
living room.
Perhaps he was imagining it all or hallucinating for some reason.
The intro for the next game started playing automatically except for a brief moment it
froze.
The voice spoke again - Help.. me - He then ran around his home to see if anyone else
was there with him, pinching himself as he walked room to room to make sure he wasn't
dreaming.
The protagonist found nothing, it was just him and his xbox 360.
He sat back down on the couch now on edge that he was hearing voices in his head.
To distract himself he kept playing.
Every time he would defeat an opponent, the game would freeze.
Which included the audio as well, except oddly enough he could hear the sounds of someone
gasping for air.
The voice spoke yet again - Find the microphone..
And headset..
In the box - it gasped.
He looked inside of the console box to find the microphone just like the voice said.
He didnt remember the 360 even coming with this, so how could it be in the box.
Now curious and a little bit freaked out he plugged in the mic and simply said - Hello?
- The voice then responded saying - Oh, good, youre still there..
- The voice sounded feminine so he went on to ask who she was and just like that she
responded - My name is Cass, what about you - she said in a now relaxed voice.
The console seemed to be alive and even had a personality to it.
He didnt feel comfortable giving out his real name in case this was some kind of troll or
scammer.
Cass then asked if he would like to continue playing his game and when he responded yes
in a still suspicious tone the game started immediately.
This time there was no glitching with the game, everything he did moving forwards worked
properly.
He asked Cass what she was doing in his console, now trying to be as polite as she was being.
She said - I was bound to you quite some time ago, sort of like a string attached to two
persons fingers.
I didnt show up sooner because I had no means of contacting you.
She described that she had been trying to contact him through other consoles, but never
had the means of speaking with him until he got the xbox which had microphone and headset
capabilities.
Following this he took a nap on his couch and woke up almost an hour later to the voice
of Cass saying - Why didn't you say goodbye?
He tried to explain that he had just fallen asleep, but Cass didn't care, she suddenly
went silent.
Through his entire time playing Borderlands, she didn't speak once.
At this point it was getting late so he told Cass goodnight and that he would be back in
the morning.
For a moment she spoke and asked if she would really get to see him again.
He responded yes and then went to bed.
As he woke up to hit snooze on his alarm he noticed his DS sitting on the table except
oddly enough it had a headset attached to it.
- Hello again - Cass said in a cheery tone.
He sat up and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
-Isn't this great?
I found a way we can stay together!- The protagonist now laughing nervously responded simply with
-yeah…
I guess- At this point he was getting freaked out.
There was a woman living inside of his xbox and now the same woman is in his DS.
He wondered if she was stalking him or if he was in any immediate danger.
He pressed Cass for answers asking why she wanted to keep in communication with him.
The woman explained that it was if she could see his memories and that she knew hes had
a rough life.
He shook his head in disbelief as he turned off his DS and walked into the kitchen.
Something even creepier began to happen, while in the kitchen he swore he could see a man
hovering over someone defenseless.
Now freaking out, even more, he splashed water in his face trying to snap himself out of
this, he started to hyperventilate at what he just saw right before his eyes.
He needed answers and he knew that only Cass could explain this.
He headed back over to his Xbox, picked up the mic and said - Cass what was that what
did I just see?
- She explained that what he saw was a memory of hers.
A man offered her a job, one that would change the face of communication for a millennium
to come.
That was the man he saw, the one who betrayed her.
He stuck a knife into her stomach and stood over her defenseless body.
That's when his television screen changed from the xbox menu to Cass, she was now on
the screen looking at him with tears rolling down her cheek as she explained how she got
in the consoles.
The protagonist sat in front of the tv, pressing his hand against it telling her that it was
going to be okay.
She explained that this man stuck something into her head, she could feel her memories,
her emotions, her experiences, everything about her being pushed into this device.
She then told the protagonist that she could only be brought back to life by the mans next
victim.
The gamer started breathing heavier again, feeling light-headed he stumbled to his room
and dropped onto his bed.
When he woke up he was in a very white room, laying on a bed.
He turned to see Cass standing behind a window.
She said not to worry and that now he too must be bound to someone before returning
back into the world.
As he walked through the door to the room where Cass was she whispered - Now we can
feel the embrace of total oblivion together.
And that has been our solo story of the Scariest Borderlands Creepypastas titled - Console
Me.
