Chapter 1 - Why today?!

'' Is this where it ends .' These were the final thoughts that came to the mind of Shinkai Ryu as all his blood drained from his open wounds.

"Wake up dumb dumb." Shin awoke to his wide eyed little sister, Yuki, hovering over him. "Happy birthday Shin" she says as she jumps atop him. "Good morning monkey" he says as he picks her up. "You're getting so big. You've been eating everything haven't you monkey." He smiles brightly as she struggles to hit him.

He puts her down and stands in order to begin his morning workout. "Where's mom" he asks as Yuki fixes her dress. "She left for work already but she told me to tell you happy birthday for her and to let you know she's getting off early to celebrate."

"Ok. So I'm going to workout before I dive in. Will you be ok while I'm in?" He asked. " Of course I will I am a big girl." She exclaimed with a big smile. "Well no matter how big you are your still my baby sister. So you need to stop growing up so fast." She giggled and ran into the living room to watch tv.

After his workout Shin decided to play his favorite game Demonspire, the full dive open world MMORPG. After he entered the game he stared at his avatar which was a slightly muscular assassin with black hair and a scruffy beard, which made him look much older than he was.

As soon as he spawned in he was greeted by the smiling faces of his guild members. "Happy birthday Shin" they all screamed in unison. As they threw cake at him. "Thanks guys, but did you have to cover me in cake" He asked as he casually wiped off the cake.

"What else were we supposed to do with it." His best friend slaps his back playfully. "You ready for our final quest birthday boy." He says as he unsheathes his sword.

Since it's the final day that servers will be open for this game Shin's guild, the Reapers, decided to come together for one last quest. Only after hearing his teammates cheers he understood he didn't have to worry about what comes next.

After the quest the Reapers came back to the guild hall with the spoils of their hard work. Then after a group hug and a lot of heartfelt goodbyes they left the game one by one all except for Shin and his best friend which both stared at each other silently until Shin broke the silence by raising his fist and saying "See you in the next life bro." His best friend only smiled and gave him a fist bump before they both logged out.

When he woke up he was greeted with the mouthwatering smell of his mother's cooking. When he found the source of the scent he saw a feast of amazing food waiting for him. He smiled at her before stating "I'll be right back. I got to head to the game store before it closes."

"Ok" his mother says handing him his coat. "It's raining."

"Thanks mom." Shin says.

Shin walked to the store to get a new game all while listening to music through his headphones. While crossing the street he got a text from his sister and while he wasn't looking a car ran into him sending him flying.

As he flew through the air weightlessly a single thought repeated itself in his head.

"Why today" he thought as gravity finally took hold of his body.

As he lay on the ground bleeding from his open wounds he thought "Is this where it ends."
