The sun shines as I step outside the school and take a breath of relief.
- That was awful! I say
The summer vacation is getting closer by the time but right now is the time for exams. My name is Nissandora but people call me Nissa because it's shorter and I like it better. I'm quite an average looking girl (ok maybe a little above average) but that's not what my classmates think. They all say that I'm a true beauty on par with the top beauty of the world. I think they are over thinking it because there is no way that's true, right? (That is way too embarrassing).Anyway, I'm walking off school with my two friends Ryan and Thia. We've known each other since middle school and they're what we call my besties. Oh and by the way, don't get the wrong idea Ryan is NOT I mean NOT my boyfriend, he is hitting on Thia.
- It wasn't that bad. Says Ryan.
He walks besides Thia with a grin on his face. He is a tall guy with glasses that suit his brown eyes. Despite being tall he isn't the muscular type.
- Speak for yourself! Replies Thia, I bet you'll get the best grade. I HATE MATH.
She seems worn out.
- At last there is still Nissa to understand me right?
- Yeah sure! I agree without any conviction.
It's true that I'm not as good as Ryan in math but I'm handling myself quite well if i do say so myself. Of course I like sport the most and my grade is average in every other subject than sport. (A lot of things about me are average. In my opinion...). Thia on her side is more interested in foreign languages. She can speak fluently about five different languages.
- Anyway I'm glad this was the last exam of the year. She says with an enthusiastic smile on her face. Now about more important topics. What are you planning to do during this summer?
- Honestly, I don't know my parents are taking the whole vacation off with just the two of them so I'm staying here with my lil bro. Maybe we can do something together right? The three of us? I answer.
- I'm in. As usual I have nothing scheduled for vacation. Add Ryan.
His parents are quite poor so he barely goes anywhere during vacations.
- It's settled then my family wanted to take me to the Caribbean but I'll tell them that I'm staying here with you.
On the other hand, her family is rich. I think you've guessed by now but my parents are....average. We are making a surprisingly complementary trio don't you think?
- Well enough about it, vacations are still far from now. So, tell me, did you girls try the new video game I gave you last week? Did you like it? Asks Ryan.
- Well usually I'm not too fond of things like this but this time I surprisingly found it a little bit funny. I answer him.
- Only a little bit funny?! What's wrong with you this game was purely AMAZING! Shouts Thia
- RIGHT! This game is the best game EVER! Continues Ryan excitedly.
I chuckle, they are pairing very well.
We continue chatting as we're heading home until we reach my house.
- See you next time. I wave at them
I watch them walking together for a moment and then I finally open the door and step in my house. There are two floors in the house, on the first floor there is a spacious living room with two couches and a TV, there is also the kitchen, my parents' room and a bathroom. On the second floor there is my room and my brother's room and there is my OWN bathroom (my brother has to go downstairs).
As soon as I close the door my brother comes at me and asks:
Are you willing to play to STO with me?
STO (Sword Tyrant Online) is the game that Ryan gifted me. It is a vr game where you can team up with your friend to gain EXP and to do adventures but the main goal of the game is to defeat the Sword Tyrant. It is an AI who is undefeated for now the hard part is that you have to defeat it on your own to become the next Sword Tyrant. As its name implies the Sword Tyrant uses only a sword where every player is allowed to choose the class they want; it can be magician, swordsman, tank… As surprising as it might be currently, the best player is a healer: he managed to bring the Sword Tyrant down to half of his life. He kept healing himself, allowing him to be nearly immortal but as the Boss reached half of its life he used an attack that killed the healer instantly.
No thanks, I'm worn out from all these exams and all I want is to take a shower and head to my room to rest. Maybe tomorrow. I answer him with a sigh.
After that I quickly take ashower and go straight to my room I get out only to have dinner and then I go right to bed.
The next morning I wake up in a peculiarly good mood. Sun rays are flooding my room. I stretch my back while waving happily my cat-like tail, then I rub my cat-like ears on the top of my head and go to watch my reflection in the mirror.
Wait a minute! I pose
I look at the mirror as horror slowly appears on my face. I now have a tail and cat ears!
What the actual F***!! I scream realizing now that something is definitely wrong.
