"What is this?"
Kali was hovering in the darkness when suddenly a strange voice appeared out of nowhere.
[System activated: An avatar.]
"Avatar?" Kali raised an eyebrow.
She was floating all alone in the darkness when a huge screen appeared. She saw Lucas in a strange place, not moving. The trees looked strange, and there was a gelatinous monster.
"Heeeey, Lucas!!!!! Run!!!" She shouted at the monitor.
[System activated: Teammate options.]
[Option #1: A dragon.]
[Option No.2: An elf.]
[Option No.3: A human].
Kali saw that Lucas looked up, which must mean that he was talking to someone.
[Teammate Chosen, Avatar #303 Transforms into a Dragon].
'Who is that, teammate?' Kali scratched her cheek.
This whole place was very strange, what was she doing here and was she dreaming right now, 'what happened to that old man and what did he do?'
[Avatar activated.]
The voice appeared again.
"Wooooooo!!!" Kali felt herself being pulled down by some invisible force.
*Boom* *Boom* *Boom*
'Oh my god, what's happening?' She was suddenly dragged to the floor. 'My head.' She tried to touch it when she felt something was wrong.
"Aaaaaa!!!! What is it?" Instead of her small, soft hand, she saw a huge, sharp and scaly claw that looked like that of a lizard.
It was heavier than usual, so Kali was shocked at the sudden change in her hands.
"What is that!!!" She screamed.
She looked down and noticed that her body had a massive shape, it was not a human body. It looked like a big massive lizard, only pink in colour. Kali gritted her teeth, anger shooting through her veins at seeing her in this form.
She had four feet and did not know how to stand on them properly.
[System activated.]
[The target is jelly. Kill the jelly monster to save your teammate]
"What is this? Who is my comrade?" She scanned the place and saw the same big monster approaching her as if it was the monster on the screen. The monster approached her, "If the monster is real, then Lucas must be there too! Lucas!"
Her soul felt uneasy at the thought that Lucas could be in trouble at that moment. She tried to stop and put one foot forward, but she lost her balance and the weight pulled her down. "This is madness, how am I supposed to walk on four feet?" she asked herself.
*Jelly* *Jelly*
The monster came closer and closer, stirring Kali's soul.
[System activated]
[teammate defence activated].
Out of nowhere, Kali was able to stay on her feet, and an unimaginable force urged her to run forward. She did not know why this was happening against her own will, it felt like something was controlling her.
[Fire.]
She was forced to open her jaw and an itchy and hot sensation spread through her mouth, it felt dry and uncomfortable.
*Whooaash*
Kali did not even notice the fire coming out of her mouth.
Her jaws were heavy and her teeth felt as sharp as knives, but this fire coming out of her did not even hurt her. It tickled her throat.
She saw this jelly monster melt in seconds. Her fire was destructive.
[The monster on the ground: defeated.]
[teammate receives 50 energy points].
"What are energy points?" Now she also looked up to see where the voice was coming from. She saw nothing. Only the sky, which was as blue as her eyes.
Common sense flashed through her mind and she realised that she was in a dragon form just because Lucas had chosen a dragon.
'This little piece of shi*!' Kali felt raging. If she had eyebrows they would be frowned as was her forehead for that. 'This little fuc*er chose made me look like a dragon?!'
Since the jelly monster was gone she began to search for Lucas, 'where the hell are you?' She was spinning her head around to detect him. 'Here you are!' She spotted him.
She pushed her first foot forward and her back foot behind and began to run towards him with all the force she had. The determination to catch him right now was on another level, she wanted to burn him alive with this fire or even worse - eat him, she was mad at him.
Why was he acting like this in the first place, and why did she have to be in this strange place with him right now, when she had done nothing wrong? 'Lucas, I am going to set you on fire, you piece of shit!'
She ran towards him. Big and tall trees prevented her from reaching this little shit, but the will she had to kill him now could not stop her.
She started pulling out the trees and pushing them aside to get a better look at where he was, "once I get you, it's over for you!"
At last, she was beside him. She lifted her first foot forward to try and crush him immediately when she heard his frightened and trembling voice.
"Kali?"
He recognised her... After all the trouble with the lizards and this strange place she was in, he recognised her.
Her eyes filled with water and it began to drip down her cheeks. She felt touched and hurt that he was in his normal human form and she was scaly and pink.
"Lucas, you asshole, what have you done to me? Ugh!" A roar instead of screams filled the area where they both stood.
"Kali, why are you a dragon?" Lucas asked her in his shocked voice.
That made Kali even angrier as if it was not his fault she had to look like that now.
"You stupid, ignorant fu*ker!" The foot that was lifted touched down on the ground and just tried to crush his little human body.
*boom* *boom* *boom*
She tried three times to catch him and kill him with her claw.
[Avatar No. 303 cannot hurt its teammate.]
Both Lucas and Kali heard the voice of the system.
A sudden force stopped Kali from attacking Lucas.
"Kali, can you hear it too?" Lucas asked her in a fearful and distant voice. He ran away from the dragon's attack to avoid an ominous death.
"Lucas, can you hear the voice as well?" Kali looked down at him once more.
[The Avatar #303.]
[Abilities: Fire and Flying.]
[Power: 1000]
[Energy. 1050]
[Destruction. 1000]
[The Avatar, Dragon.]
"Wooaaah, Kali, is that your power?" Lucas's voice sounded like a deep shock. Kali looked powerful, just like in the video games he used to play, and it felt like he was getting a strong comrade.
He could assumed that Kali had become his teammate when he heard the system telling her to stop murdering him. To be honest, he was even more shocked than Kali, seeing his beautiful and long-sought crush turned into a dragon, 'how on earth am I supposed to date a dragon?' he asked himself.
Then a systematic voice appeared again.
[Avatar #302.]
[Skills. Confidence Pills.]
[Power. 10]
[Energy. 20]
[Destruction. 0]
[The Avatar: Izek3000]
[Mission: Destroy the ogre village and find the green gem].
The voice disappeared again.
Both Lucas and Kali were left confused.
'What is an ogre village?' thought Kali, turning her large head to the left.
Meanwhile, Lucas had completely different thoughts.
"Izek3000? No, right now the system is tripping!"
[Introduction]
[Downloading...]
[Win The Game And Get One Wish Fulfilled]
"One wish?" Lucas lifted his head in the air and then turned back to Kali.
[One Wish, It Could be Any Wish]
[Goodbye]
Lucas thought of it as a scam, 'there's no way the system would allow Mina to get better... but maybe...' He grinned his teeth,
"What if we participate and win?"
