1. PROLOGUE
-September 3, 2024-
The morning started with the bright light emanating the fresh earth.
From the streets of town, a man dressed in formal black pants and a checked-blue shirt was walking towards a certain direction holding his college bag on his back.
"Hey Ren! wait! let's go together".
A voice called out to the man. He recognised the owner of this voice and turned to look at him. It was his friend, William.
Brown eyes, black hair, 1.5 m tall with some chubby layer of fat stored in his body. A normal cheerful guy and a gaming freak.
Ren, the man dressed in his college uniform waved back at him with a smile visible on his face," Morning, William." His black hair danced with the breeze of wind.
Their friendship started ten years ago when Ren's family shifted to the neighbourhood where William lived. Since they were neighbours they got to know each other. Their vibe matched and they became friends. And till date now being 21 years old both attended the same school and now college.
Coming to the present; William ran close to him and held Ren on shoulder, showing their bro code.
William was a heavy-strong guy.
""Put your hands~~on my shouulderrr~~~"William started singing with a smile and gave a pat on his back. Continuing he put his hand over his neck and they started walking together towards college.
"Uggh, fatty be careful of my shoulder. " Ren said while gritting his teeth, holding his shoulder in pain.
William replied with a grin.
"Can you stop doing it again."Ren said while rubbing his own back with his right hand.
Ren wasn't hurt badly but just annoyed at him because William always does it even after he asked not to do it many times.
" Have you completed the level yet?"William asked, ignoring what Ren was saying to him.
"No, not yet. I was busy studying yesterday. You know exams are coming next week don't you?", Ren asked, looking at him with a neutral face.
" Ah,yes I know." William answered, looking in another direction and started whistling.
Ren understood that this idiot forgot about it. Ren looked towards him.
"Are you for real."Ren said while Removing William's hand from his shoulder.
"Hahaa, no problem I can cover it,"William chuckled.
"And we are also in college now bro chill. "
Veins can be seen popping on Ren's forehead.
"Just don't forget about it next time and dont play games this week. " Ren sighed.
"Okay boss, got it.." William did a thumbs up gesture.
A week passed.
-September 9 , 2024 [FIRST DAY OF EXAM]-
a week passed.
-September 16 , 2024[END DAY OF EXAM]-
"Phew...finally exams are over", William sighed.
"Today I will try completing that level, maybe I will get my game character level up", Ren replied enthusiastically.
"Yes, you are a gamer for nothing.I will also try catching up to you",William replied.
- September 17, 2024-
As the mild wind blew through the window pane, waving the curtains and making way for sunlight to enter a room showed a boy sitting on chair playing games.
The boy who immersed himself in the game was Ren. A boy with normal good looks, Black hair, green eyes, 1.7 meters tall (66.9 inches) with a fit body.
As the curtains moved,his sight went towards the window. He stood up leaving his controller on the table and went to close the window. He heard some screaming noises coming outside.
" what's happening outside?"
He took a peek outside window, looking in the direction where this loud noises were coming,when suddenly ground started shaking and a very bright light entered like a flash through the window binding his eyes.
"Ahhh... "Ren shouted in pain .
He was little panicked when ground suddenly started shaking.
He suddenly closed his eyes and started rubbing his eyes with his fingers while walking towards other direction of the window towards his table, the intense light caused some strain on the eyes.
As he was rubbing his eyes,he bumped into something,he stopped moving front as he heard some voices in his surrounding.
"Hey, where are we?..."
"What's going on?..."
"What's happening?..."
The thing he bumped wasn't something but someone.
He started hearing many voices which he couldn't recognise because many people were making noises at the same time.
'What?why are their people in my room!' he thought while rubbing his eyes.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw many people standing everywhere side and front to him.
" Wha...what are these people doing in my room."
He looked at the person in front of him.
"Hey, who are you and why are you in my room. " He shouted while catching shirt collar of the man standing in front of him with his both hands.
"Hey bastard, what are you doing? ", the man roared. The man was almost same height as Ren. He had a butler style beard and mustache.With a fit body.His looks were of someone who looked like he was in his late 40s.
Ren repeated again, keeping his hands tight on that man's shirt collar.
" I am asking what are you all doing in my house. "
The man started struggling trying to unite himself from his catch.
While doing so the man became angry and caught his collar.
" You fuckyard, this is not your house. Look there"the man shouted angrily while pointing in every direction.
" Huh? "As Ren saw in his surroundings he was surprised.
He removes his hands from the mans collar.
He was confused seeing himself in a crowd. He looked in every direction.
" This is not my room. Where am I?"he asked.
"Fuckyard, how would I know? "the man answered with angry look on his face.
"Ah,I am sorry for suddenly catching your collar." Ren apologized for what he did just now, bowing slightly.
"No problem, I was also confused when I got here. "man sighed.
Ren looked in every direction while hearing him.
He could only see him standing in a crowd.
" Woah, what's happening did someone kidnapp us? "Ren said.
He was standing in the crowd.The place where he was kidnapped or what he thought had green grassy ground and when he saw up there were two suns shining brightly.
" Huh, why are there two suns?"Ren said with a surprised look.
"How would I know it? " Replied a stranger next to him.
"Hmm.. "Ren didn't respond and started walking forward making way in the crowd.
While Ren was struggling to move forward a sudden heavy pressure began to act on everyone due to which everyone's movement stopped and nobody can move from their place.
'Hm? why can't I move' almost everyone standing there thought in their mind.
Some tried speaking but they were silenced by a deep loud voice.
"SILENCE... "
As this voice was heard everyone shivered and stood silent.
Everyone including Ren looked up towards the direction of the sound.
