I opened my eyes then I touched my head, we're on a quiet field. We can only hear the bird whistles. Too many flowers and butterflies. " This place is beautiful. " Karina said. " Indeed. " Richard said too. Then Katrina noticed a door behind me.
" What is that? " Charlie asked then he stood up and entered it. Katrina entered the door too. " My lovely friends, this is the best thing that happened to me. You all are the best. We'll meet each other again at the other side of this door, alright? " Richard reminded us then he went to the door. I was about to enter the door but Karina pulled me.
" Don't go first. I-- I wanna tell you something. " She said then I closed the door.
" I-- We've been through many things. Together. It's not impossible to fall in you. You're brave, you're smart, you're the one that I want to spend my life with. Alexander, I love you. " she said then I answered, " Karina, I guess it's time to tell you the truth. I'm in love with you. Since we've met, I already like you. I'm scared to tell it because that's not my attitude. I'm just a gamer that's not good in any relationships. But Karina, when we enter this room, would you still love me? " then she laughed, " Am I dumb? Yes I would. I will be with you until our last breath. " she said.
" Promise me. You'll be with me forever. " I asked her then she raised her hand,
" I Karina Lang, promises that I will be with Alexander forever. " she promised then she hugged me tightly. " You're gorgeous. " I whispered to her then I kissed her. She hugged me more tightly and then we stopped.
" Guess we need to go inside now? " I asked her then I opened the door.
" Ladies first my queen. " I said gently them she entered the door. When I'm entering the door, the owner showed up.
" Thank you for playing Octavia. You've been a great player. " he said then he added,
" You're the only one left in Octavia. Are you willing to go now? " and then I closed the door.
" I need a minutes to say my goodbyes at Octavia. Please wait. " I said then I walked slowly to check the whole place.
" This game, it's beautiful. It's an art. Been a great help to me. " I said then a tear fell down from my eyes. " Are you really shutting this game down? " I asked the owner then he nodded. " Please, we must give it a second chance! " I begged. Then he explained,
" Sorry kid. This is already the second chance.
In year 1532, I tried to publish it in public but they hacked it. Some people thought back then, that all people were too dumb to publish a real game, but they kept this game hidden.
That's why I didn't published it. But now, it's free to publish a game. That's why I thought of bringing Octavia back. And it happened, it's been a blockbuster. But the tale should end. We must create a new path. We must proceed and keep on going, and Charlie is the one who will do it. Charlie's Journey is the most important now. Octavia is no use from now on. "
" Are you already dead...? " I asked him then he nodded. " But you're in the game? " he answered, " Son, it's my heaven. But then this day, my heaven will shut down. We must continue to Charlie's game. Here, take this SD card. " he handed it to me then I kept it.
" I shall go now dear owner. " I said to him.
" Thanks for playing Metalypsis. It's been a journey. " He said then he saluted.
" Goodbye Octavia. "
