My name is Basara Yuro. I'm a 20-year-old who doesn't do anything else then stay in my room, watch anime, read manga and play games.
I have this great so-called 'power' to be able to control what happens in my dream. I could even change myself into a female if I wanted to.
Meanwhile my life is nothing but misery. My only motivation to keep on living are my dreams. I see that as my real life and when I wake up, I feel like I'm stepping into a nightmare.
My normal day consists of eating, gaming, wasting time on reading or watching anime/manga until I go to sleep again.
I haven't seen my friends in a long time, they are all busy with either work or school. I have none of those things. I'm leeching of my parents who are way too nice to me. I honestly don't deserve them.
I weekly get a text from one of my friends Hosoyama to ask if I want to meet up and chill, but I always ignore him, because I don't feel like I deserve to waste his time. He got his own life where I do not fit in.
Everyday feels like it's getting longer and I already sleep for as long as I can. I can't sleep unless I'm tired which sucks.
"Looks like it's 3pm time to go to bed."
As I jumped into bed I thought I wish I could sleep forever and never wake up.
Little did I know that my wish was soon to become reality.
Huh? It's really dark here. What happened? where are my muscles, my harem, and my magical powers? What is going on here! Oh no what is that.
I was staring at a big monster with a huge mouth full of 4 rows of silver white teeth.
''Basara your wish has been granted."
''My wish?'' I said confused.
"Yes, you wished to sleep forever" said the monster smiling at me.
"I did wish that... But what happened to my dream world?''
"It got exchanged for your wish, you got to be careful what you wish for young one... cause you just might get it. "Now farewell and good luck." The monster evaporated into thin air.
Oh no I'm in this hell hole of a world and I can't even get out. My dreams where the only thing that kept my drive up to live, but now I don't have that anymore. I'm done with this, I hate this world even more then my original world. I have to find a way to kill myself.
I could just break my neck but there is a possibility that I will get disabled, that's even worse. I have to find something sharp, but man, now that I look around everything looks dull, even the apples that should be red are grey. The tree trunks look almost black. While I was looking around I suddenly heard a roar in the distance.
What was that?! It came from behind that boulder, no it's a rock. Should I check it out? With a bit of luck, a big monster eats me up in 1 bite. Oh, whatever I want to die right? So I might as well be fearless about death as well.
I proceeded to walk to the rock. I looked around the rock to see a monster the size of a bear, it was eating something. I took a closer look when I heard. ''What do you want! this is my food find your own! The bear monster said while Growling.
the bear sized monster suddenly said.
''Hey you behind that boulder."
Turning his head and looking at me directly.
I screamed "it's a rock!" I don't know why.
''A rock whatever. I said go away this is my food, and I don't share.''
"Honestly, I was hoping to become food, so if you're not full yet are you interested in me?" I said with my arms wide open.
HA HA HA HA! The monster laughed. "Why, would I, be interested in food when there is no hunt."
''A hunt is that important?"
"Off course, how is it fun to eat something you didn't do anything for."
"Okay I can run, but I'm not fast."
"No no no you're way to small and you have no meat, and your kind tastes disgusting."
"Disgusting? I asked.
"Yes, you're that yuman type, right?"
"Yuman?"
"Damn it why must you ask all these questions. Are you new here or something!" he said annoyed. "Yes I am, I just arrived a couple minutes ago.''
"You what?!" the monster sprinted away and left his food.
Then suddenly, a loud sound could be heard. It was so loud my ears started bleeding from it. A huge black cloud came approaching fast, I got chills. Now I was deaf and blind. Then a horrible smell came in my nose, I covered my nose but it was no use. The smell was unbearable. It smelled like pure death, rotting corpses and the metal smell from blood. Before I knew it, I got grabbed by a gigantic hand, but it didn't have skin or flesh. It was pure bones. There I was, staring right into a face from an immensely big skeleton. He must have been at least 10 meters tall or even taller. His eyes were glowing red and his skull had small cracks in it. The middle of his chest had a big dark purple glowing gem.
"Welcome to Dreammare" said the skeleton with a deep voice. "I knew I smelled a Yuman but when I came closer, I smelled a yokai... You?"
"Me?"
"Yes you, what's your name?"
"My name is Basara, Basara Yuro."
The skeleton started laughing. "Don't fuck with me yuman, I know Basara." He moved his Giant head closer to me. "He was the KING! The king of this world 5000 years ago. There is no possible way that a weakling like you, is the ALMIGHY BASARA YURO." He squinted his eyes and said with a sharp voice. "So, this time no lies."
I didn't know what to say. 5000 years? I was in my dream world yesterday. This makes no sense.
"I asked you something YUMAN! Answer me!" he said annoyed.
"Or what? Are you going to kill me? Jokes on you, I was looking for a way to kill myself."
"Oh, you're a joker huh. Do you even know what happens with people who die here! Let me tell you that dying is the least of your worries here."
"Wait what do you mean by that!"
"Farewell joker." The skeleton repositioned himself in a throwing position. Him stepping back with one foot made a loud noise. his bones rattled and suddenly I felt weightless. he threw me with what felt like light speed away.
I thought that my skin would peel off of my body. The pressure of the wind and everything around me become heavier and heavier the further I flew. Until suddenly the pressure got so high that I started falling down. I was falling for minutes no hours it felt like, it took forever. There was nothing else but smoke and clouds of dust. I finally saw some ground but that didn't comfort me at all. I was falling with a deadly speed toward the ground. I braced myself for impact. I collided with the ground. A big crater was formed by my body Crashing into the ground.
I didn't feel anything. Alright I thought. But then I looked at my body, my legs and arms where all twisted and crushed. Pieces of bone sticking out of my limbs, my ribs where shattered. One of my eye was just lying on the ground next to some bone and pink goop. I felt with my hand on my head but there was a huge chunk of skull and brain missing. I could not believe what I saw and felt. I was mortally wounded how could i not feel any pain. Then I thought back on what that skeleton said. "dying is one of the least of your worries'' so that's what he meant with that.
Suddenly my body began to heal itself. My bones started regenerating and I could walk again, I stood up but the air felt heavy. It took a lot of strength to just stand up. Let's see what I can find, but I didn't see anything. It was all waste land with big black dots everywhere. I saw one of the black dots move, my heart almost stopped. It had legs and it was coming right at me.
I began to run, which was difficult because my body weight was more than usual. I suddenly got stopped by a collection of sticky thin woven lines. I knew it, those black dots are spiders. This is bad, I don't want to find out what happens to me when I get eaten by a spider. I tried to get loose but it didn't work. I suddenly had an idea. I bit one of my fingers clean off and threw it away. yes, it was as I thought, it grew back. I knew what I had to do. But there was nothing sharp around me. it was too late. There where already at least 10 spiders coming at me.
I tried to break free but those webs where everywhere. I was doomed. One spider jumped me and I tried to keep it from biting me by holding his jaws, but another spider bit me and I felt my body becoming weak. Some time passed and I woke up. I felt something around me, something really sticky. I was stuck because a spider made me a package of spider webs. I know what spiders do with their prey. They suck them out, it's horrible.
I don't want to die like this. I was thinking about everyone and how I should have talked to them, my friends, parents my siblings. But it was all too late now.
