My son was delighted. The game seemed to be about playing as a spaceship circling a bunch of shapes, shooting them before they reached you, like asteroids. My son zoned out as he started playing. My mind wandered as the noise of my son mashing the buttons and wrestling the joystick drifted through the air. Polybius had poor graphics, even for an arcade game made in the 1980s.

I figured it was made by someone with a low budget. That would also explain why I had never heard of it before. My eyes drifted away from the screen and looked over the sea of heads, along with the usual face of arcade cabinets. There were also claw machines, ball pits, carnival hoops, a prize counter, and others.

I don't remember how long we were there, but it must have been a long time because my son's friend was asking if we could go. As far as I knew, that kid never got tired of video games. I turned back to my son, who was still playing Polybius. I looked at my watch. We had been there for five hours. I told my son to stop playing so we could leave, but he just ignored me.

I ended up having to drag him away from the arcade cabinet and to the front doors. Saying my son wasn't happy about this decision would be a pretty big understatement. We got into my car and my son yelled and kicked the whole way home. We drove my son's friend back to his house and my son was surprisingly silent the rest of the way back.

I looked at him in the rear view a few times and his expression remained blank and emotionless. I assumed his silence was an act of resentment. The next day, I was in the middle of work when I got a phone call. It was from the school my son went to. Apparently, he had been talking about wanting to die. He had never mentioned stuff like that before, so I was taken aback.

Maybe he was just having morbid thoughts. I tried to get back to work, but I kept getting sidetracked. His silence, his blank expression, his negativity. What could have triggered this odd behavior? When I went to pick him up from school, I passed the arcade. One of the things I noticed was a large black van in the parking lot.

It looked very out of place among the other smaller cars that were painted blue, red, silver, or white. When I picked up my son and passed by our way home, I saw three men standing by the van, dressed in black suits and sunglasses. One of them was cradling a small metal box in his hands.
