In Jeremiah's bedroom.
News Anchor announces
"This just in, the first out of 7 spots for the competition of invention is already won. If you don't enter the competition by the end of the week, all positions will be filled and applicants will no longer be considered. Dr. David Weiss, this years Nobel peace prize winner, famous engineer and computer scientist will be hosting the event, along with Dr. Eric Schwann a medical doctor at the shaultan city's institute of health. This year's competition will take any invention of any field, whether in technology, medicine or art.-" The news anchor continues his report.
"Ah that's right I forgot about this, I can make a lot of money with my ideas, I'll just win a spot in the competition and make a name for myself. I should think this over for tonight, my mother would know if I were to skip tomorrow, she would see I skipped school today. I'll go after school then." Jeremiah thinks to himself while he lays in bed.
The next morning Jeremiah wakes up, he notices the broken tape from that strange man he met yesterday. The tape is on the floor and under Jeremiahs bed. "How did it get under the bed?" Jeremiah thinks to himself. "And why does it have a green acid like substance oozing from it? I won't touch it, it's fine right there, at some point I'll give that man back his tape." Jeremiah continues.
Jeremiah leaves out for school before eating breakfast and heads straight to the train station. "I thought about it, no way am I going to school today either." Jeremiah says to himself.
The train station leads to boidertown to the north and wenston to the south when I leave the city, "wenston is only 10 minutes away from here, Arnold said we'll meet there today" says Jeremiah.
10 minutes later Jeremiah makes it to wenston, there is an eatery there called "DCA". We like to hang out there because it's free computers and internet.
Arnold can be seen approaching Jeremiah from the west side of the eatery.
"What we're you doing over there?" Asks Jeremiah.
A very short silence fell over them but just then
"Oh nothing, I was just on the phone over there." Answers Arnold.
"Arnold, that was sort of strange, hahaha why'd you pause for a second?" Asks Jeremiah.
"What? how was that strange? I paused for like a split second but it sure wasn't weird." Explains Arnold.
"You know what forget it." Says Jeremiah.
The two of them head in to the eatery.
"Wow! The computers were upgraded and the store looks new. What's going on?" Asks Jeremiah.
"It looks better" Jeremiah quietly whispers under his breath so that only Arnold can hear him.
The lady waitress walks over to take their order.
"A rich Dr. Weiss has donated a lot of money into our eatery and we have upgraded parts of the building I didn't even know existed and I've worked here for two years but anyway what can I get for you guys?" Says the waitress.
"You said you've upgraded parts of the building and you've also upgraded the computers here as well?" Says Jeremiah.
"Yes, the computers all froze on a green screen and they wouldn't shut off or restart, we know they were old but they were only 4 years old. Also I heard they were doing really strange things, like when the repair man went to power them off, the computers all stayed on. One went off and turned right back on but it was also powered off. The man quickly took all of them and loaded them into his truck and paid our shop for extremely broken computers. Later that day Dr. Weiss sent our shop a fat check but I'm not sure what for exactly." Says the waitress.
"Hmm that is strange, we'll have the special for the day." Says Jeremiah in a seemingly uninterested tone.
"Yes, I'll be back." Says the waitress.
Jeremiah and Arnold head over to the computer room. They try to get some inspiration for their next video game
"Okay I got it, how about we base the location in a train station? On this train are entities or ghost more like, that have died mysterious deaths. It is abandoned but anyone who is alive who steps inside the train will have to fight to survive the night by solving the murder the first time around but if they lose the case and cannot solve the murders of their selected character, they will then lose their own body and swap positions with that ghost, they will have one last chance to stop that ghost before they lose their body forever and that ghost gets to leave alive. You must watch out for shadow people in this game. They are not ghost, they are much different and you are not safe if you run into one of these. You must stay away from these no matter what." Says Arnold.
"You made all this up because you took the train here and got inspired?" Says Jeremiah in an amused way.
"Yeah I did, but it's not a bad idea if we would execute it correctly, think about it, the art will be amazing, the thriller, the horror and the mystery, will draw in a large fan base." Says Arnold.
"If the game is overall well created, I could get behind it, we should certainly do it. Will it be named after our shaultan train station?" Says Jeremiah.
"Yes, I mean, we can always work out the details of the game in our next meeting, what do you say?" Asks Arnold.
"Yes let's meet up again Tomorrow, oh and another thing, do you ever plan to enter the competition of invention for a new project? I was thinking maybe we could collaborate on something." Says Jeremiah.
"Jeremiah, I am entering the competition but I had already registered the competition as a single contestant." Says Arnold.
"Oh ok, no for sure. I as well, will be entering the competition and what I have prepared is mind splattering, belief battling, and reality shattering, with my idea you would've sworn the galaxies caved in on us, because you couldn't tell a difference." Exaggerates Jeremiah.
"Ah, Jeremiah, my friend, you've always been good, but soon we will see who is great." Says Arnold.
They both proceed to walk away and head home for the afternoon, Jeremiah catches the train 10 minutes to get back home.
"Hmm, what is my next move?" Jeremiah thinks to himself.
