It was time! Saturday finally came around and I'm not busy what so ever, everything is in perfect order. I downloaded a game to play, set up a new channel on YT and got a fully functioning voice changer so I sound like a 20 year old woman instead of a 7 year old.
Before I started recording however I decided to play the game a bit first so I had some understanding of it. I opened the game called COD world at war, it was on offer for only 3,000 yen which equivalent to 20 pounds.
Instantly I clicked on multiplayer, I didn't want to play any sort of campaign or single players. The first thing I did was mute my mic as I heard only men talking and didn't want to talk to them, I don't even know if I can. Hmmm, I'll try it when there's women in the lobbies.
While waiting for a game to start I changed my username, I went with Fumei, which means unknown in Japanese. coincidentally that's also the name of my new YT channel, I didn't know what to call it and no names were popping up in my head so I went with the English word unknown but that was taken, so Japanese it was.
We finally loaded in and I see that the map were playing is called castle, as this is my 1st game I will be trying to learn the map and guns.
I was running around the map and shooting people left and right with my colt handgun, the game was kinda easy, literally just run around finding people put my cross heir on them and shoot. Obviously everyone else in this lobby was level 1, the same as me so that might have something to do with it.
I finished the first round with 18 kills and 3 deaths, I ended my first game with a 6 K/D. That's pretty good for my first game right? I played and played for the next 1 hour and a half before deciding to start recording.
"Hello, this is Fumei and i'm playing COD World at War, enjoooy."
OMG THAT WAS SO CRINGE LIKE WHAT EWEEWEEWEEWEEWEEW, oh well it's fine, I've done it now so there's no going back. I'll just run with it.
All week I've been watching content creators playing games and all the successful people are constantly talking and making good, funny content. That means interacting with the people talking in game chat, oh well, nothing I can do now I've started right?
As I load into the lobby I unmute my mic, "hello everyone!"
It was quiet... then, "A woman? Nah were definitely losing this game."
That comment was followed by several others agreeing with them, it didn't really effect me but I did have one thought; what if I carried them to the win? Would that be good for content?
"Yeah, yeah. Watch me destroy their whole team by myself then keep on running your mouth." My words were followed by laughter and the first person getting angry.
"Shut up, your only gunna die over and over again, your just giving them a free win."
"What ever."
Once we got half way through the match I had 19 kills and 2 deaths, meanwhile at the bottom of the leader board was the first guy, his gamer tag was something stupid like MiNeKrAfT_kId.
I decided my content will start here, "So what was this about me being bad at the game?"
He was clearly getting annoyed and started shouting, "Shut up you stupid b***h."
Everyone else in the lobby was laughing at him as he sounded angry, I decided I should keep going, "What? You mad at a game?"
I think everyone else laughing more at him only made him angrier, "Oh just shut up, your just getting lucky!"
I smiled, this was it, he was shouting now and at his tipping point, "Can you imagine being this bad at a game? I mean your getting beaten by a level 24 woman while your level 64, jeez your bad."
"*Crash!*, *Bang!*" You could hear his controller being thrown, well it could of been a headset too but oh well.
I decided to just laugh at the situation as in the background you could hear him screaming and shouting curse words, "HAHAHAHA, hey do any of you guys know him in real life?"
I got a answer from the 2nd on the leader board, "Yeah he gets like this in every game we play, he's terrible at everything."
"Hehe, I see. Hey can you invite me to your call so I can 1v1 him?" I thought carrying on trolling this kid would be good content.
I muted my mic in game so no one could here me and just spoke to the microphone so the video could hear it, "I really wanna see how angry we can make him, hahahaha."
"Yeah sure, I wanna see him get mad too Hahahahaa." The rest of the lobby started laughing too and I joined in before I realized my mic was still muted.
"Thanks, I can't help it, it's just too funny." And I get good content out of it soooo, it's just up sides to this.
Finally we finished the match and won as I made for the bottom on the leader board with 2x the number of kills the guy at the top of the enemies leader board got.
After a minute I received an invite to their game and joined, "So you were saying I was bad were you?"
"Huh?" It looks like he didn't realize his friend invited me, "Wait your that girl from last game?"
"Yeah and you was saying how good you were so you wanna 1v1?" Please say yes.
"Whatever you just got lucky for 1 game, your still sh*t." He had such an attitude about him it was kinda getting annoying.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We played each other for like 30 minutes before he finally broke his controller, both me and his friend was in stitches, laughing.
I left their game when it looked like his friend wasn't coming back, now it was just me and the audience. "Okay people I think that's enough for a day, I still can't believe he broke his controller HAHAHAHHAA."
"Anyway, this was Fumei, I hope you have a good day! Bye."
I stopped the recording, and jumped straight into editing the video. I had it out in 2 hours.
Now time to wait and see how well it does.
With perfect timing, I heared the front door opening and closing followed by a, "Were baaaack!"
I opened my door and sprinted down the stairs and barreled into my mom with a hug. "Yes yes, I missed you too Lilly, Awwwe your so cute being this excited to see mommy hm?"
My perfect world however was ruined when the second voice appeared, "What about me hm?"
My 'father' spoke and instantly my mood dropped but I didn't let them see and just pretended I didn't hear him. I'm tired and don't wanna deal with him, when my mom tried to let go of me, I only hugged her tighter.
"Mkay, I guess we can cuddle for a little while. I guess you missed me more than I thougth you would." I just nodded into her chest.
"Hehehehe, " I heared her giggle and my ears were in heaven, "Mahito, can you pack our things away? It seems Lily doesn't want to let go of me."
"Of course I can honey." Ew, don't call her that, that's just gross coming from you.
I ended up falling asleep in her arms and woke up to Asahi crying, "Sorry Lilly but I have to let you go now okay?"
I just nodded and grumbled, "Mh."
I guess I should wake up properly now anyway, I walk up to my bedroom and check on how my video's doing. Oh, wow.
The video is doing well, extremely well acctualy. The title on YT, Girl makes boy rage and break his controller (COD WaW) has hit 2,000 views and in under 24 hours I've gained 471 subscribers. The video has 893 likes too!
Please bare in mind this is equivalent to my other channels best video and I earn roughly 3,300 yen per thousand views and it hasn't even been a full day yet. That means I've earned over 6,5 thousand yen so far! My other channels best video has just under 10k views in the space of a month for perspective.
Gaming is definitely the way to go when it comes to content creation!
I go to check on my personal banking account on my phone that got for my birthday this year and see the number has risen by 6,660 yen! "Yosh!"
Naturally just because I'm doing gaming now doesn't mean I won't stop doing those help videos as they still generate money for me, speaking of I still need to upload something soon. I did see one of my comments asking for help on how to solder and where to buy the items needed, I guess I'll do that today as well.

Across Tokyo, in a meeting room
"We need to revamp the company, our products just don't do well with how our competitors are improving by the day. We just can't keep up anymore."
"Hmmm, what about making entertainment? It can't be that hard right?"
"And what kind of entertainment do you suggest?"

Lily's POV
I found out today that mom and father had a meeting today and sorted out their wills, this is it! We can finally get rid of him! We can finally be happy!
But how would it look if he died the same day he changed his will?
I guess it wouldn't kill me to wait just a little bit.
// 3rd POV //
In a silent dark room, two adults lie in bed, hugging each other. Next to the bed however stood a small girl standing at 3'11, she was holding a large pillow in her hands. Her looks came from her dad, he was Indian. The girl had bronze skin, long black hair that reached her butt and brown eyes that could stare so deep she could see a persons soul, and right now she was staring so intently at a Japanese man sleeping that she got lost in time and only blinked after standing still for a full hour.
Like nothing had happened, she dragged the pillow out of the room and silently closed the door behind her. No one would ever know the thought that were going through her head that night.
