CYOA
Ararya
1
Ararya was once an ordinary human, leading a mundane life full of routine, until an unusual bug bite during a weekend camping trip altered her reality forever. Upon returning to her crammed apartment, an overwhelming and inexplicable urge seized her, compelling her to cocoon herself within the familiar embrace of her home. As days bled into weeks, her once cozy sanctuary transformed into an ominous hive, humming with an unsettling energy while she retreated into deeper isolation, wrapped in layers of silk-like threads.
When she finally emerged from her cocoon, Ararya had undergone a breathtaking but horrifying metamorphosis. What stood before her was a humanoid insect, retaining elements of her femininity yet imbued with distinctly insect-like features. Her senses had sharpened dramatically, heightening her awareness of the world around her, and an insatiable hunger consumed her—a drive to colonize.
As time passed, the very essence of Ararya began to seep into the very fabric of her apartment block, intertwining her DNA with that of her unsuspecting neighbors. Some residents found themselves transformed into steadfast warriors, fiercely loyal to her as they embraced their new roles, while others became diligent workers, tirelessly tending to her growing and visceral needs. Utilizing the intricate maze of sewer systems that snaked beneath the city, Ararya plotted her expansion, preparing to infect and dominate several more apartment blocks, her ambitions reaching far beyond her own confines.
But just as her dark ambitions began to take root, the government took notice of the creeping threat, dispatching the army to confront the nightmarish reality of her burgeoning hive. The once vibrant community now teetered on the edge of chaos, caught in a gripping battle between humanity's last stand against Ararya's terrifying legacy, a relentless force of nature that sought to consume everything in its path.
