A nice sunny day, in the afternoon at around 3pm, 16 year old Ford Reski is on his way back home from school. Something strange is going on though: No one else seems to be around.
Ford: "Strange, where is everyone?"
Ford is visually confused at the lack of people around, but he rubs it off as just no one wanting to be out today. At that, He continues his journey to his house. Later, He comes up to a street he has to cross, but no one is on the road.
Ford: "What the hell? This street is normally busy at this time of day."
He wasn't wrong. The street he has to cross is normally very populated at this time of day, packed with cars and busses alike. So where could everyone be? Anyway, As he steps on the crosswalk, the road should be solid pavement, but the ground feels soft. Almost like grass.
Ford: "huh?"
Ford looks down, to find that the solid pavement has turned to a dirt trail, with grass and trees, and what looks to be buildings around it. He looks back up, confused as to how the road has changed. That wasn't all he should be confused at though.
Ford: "——"
Ford didn't say anything, speechless at the world around him. It's understandable as to why though: The world he'd come to know, with his school, the modern neighborhoods, and the big skyscrapers in downtown of his city, had completely transformed.
Ford: "Have I been summoned... TO ANOTHER WORLD?!"
Ford was right. His world has completed changed before his eyes, from the modern neighborhoods and huge skyscrapers, to what looks to be:
Ford: "Hmm.. A fantasy town with medieval style culture, where demihumans are common place, and In this world, I must have-"
Just then, a lady's purse was snatched out of her hand, Ford isn't scared, but instead happy at what he saw.
Ford: "THIS IS IT! I must have developed a special power to save this world. HAAA!!"
But nothing happened. No huge spell, and the purse didn't magically appear back in the lady's hand. Instead what had happened, was a guard came.
Guard: "Stop right there, Thief!"
Just then, The guard had tackled the Thief, causing them to drop the purse.
Lady: "Oh Thank You!!"
The lady got her purse back. Not by Ford, but by the Guard.
Ford: "It's probably too early to use magic.."
Ford continued walking around the new world, trying to gather information, but everyone just shoved him away.
Ford: "None of this makes sense! This is another world summon, right?! Where's all my gear?!"
The only "gear" Ford had was his school backpack, and his hoodie, t-shirt and sweatpants that he had on that day. No special armour, no weapons, none of that. Just the same items he had in his world. So at that, he walked into a dark alley.
Ford: "I was summoned here for a reason, so what is it??"
Ford: "and who summoned me anyway?! Why'd they do that and then book it?"
Ford was visibly annoyed. He had every right to be though. Why was he summoned here? Why hasn't he gained any special power to save the world? Who brought him to this world? Those are all questions that Ford would proceed to ask himself.
Ford: "Ugh, I'm exhausted."
Ford was exhausted after running around all day trying to find out why he was brought here, but he couldn't just sleep in a dark alley. And so-
Ford: "I guess I'll have to find a hotel or something.. hopefully I have enough for one night... And I hope they'll take my money.. well, there's only one way to find ou--"
??: "What are you goin' on about? Give me all you got, and make it snappy"
Just then, four bandits had appeared in front of Ford.
