Grace started to open the MacBook, her eyes sweeping across the screen full of brightly colored icons. She clicked in all directions, trying to chase away the boredom that had overtaken her. However, among the piles of files, one name caught her attention "Soul".
At first, doubt gripped her heart. What did this file contain? Why was the name so tempting? As if a magnet was pulling her in, Grace felt as if the file held a secret that she wanted to reveal. She bit her lip, thinking for a moment. Was this just an ordinary file or something more than that?
With a deep breath, Grace finally decided to press it. Her index finger hovered over the trackpad, and in an instant, she clicked on the file. The screen suddenly changed, displaying images and text that sparkled with bright colors. A soft sound began to play from the speakers of her MacBook, creating a magical atmosphere that made her heart pound.
On the MacBook screen, a sentence appeared clearly: "Are you willing to participate in this game?" Grace stared at it, her heart racing. Without hesitation, she pressed the "Yes" button, and instantly, the screen turned into a colorful display, showing the exciting rules of the game.
Game Rules;
1. Each decision made will lead to different consequences.
2. Each challenge has a time limit.
3. Players will gain power, each use has side effects.
4. Players must complete all stages at once, if the player loses all lives it will automatically repeat 1 to 2 stages backwards.
Grace still hadn't realized that what she was facing was not just another RPG game, but a gaming portal-a window into a much larger and more complex world. She thought it was just a game with an interesting storyline and typical RPG challenges, but in reality, it was a gateway to an experience beyond her imagination.
Grace clicked the "Agree" button, and instantly, she felt a strange sensation. A strong pull seemed to draw her body into the MacBook screen, like a giant magnet that could not be resisted. "Wow, it's just like in the movies!" she thought, even as pain began to radiate through her body.
"This must be the effect of playing too many games," he muttered with a wry smile. However, as his body was sucked in more and more, his smile slowly faded.
"Wait, this isn't a game! This is real!" She felt like she was trapped in a spinning washing machine-one more spin and she could have come out with a very unattractive hairstyle.
The pain intensified, and suddenly, her vision began to blur.
"If I pass out, I hope I don't wake up looking like a cartoon character or something ridiculous," she thought as she tried to hold on to consciousness.
And then, in the blink of an eye, everything went dark. Grace fainted, falling into deep darkness.

Danniel looked at the wall and called out to her sister in a stern voice.
"Come on, it's already midnight! Why aren't you asleep yet?" However, there was no answer. A sense of worry began to creep into her heart. Her sister was usually quick to respond, even if only to complain about how boring the night was.
With quick steps, Danniel went to the living room, where her sister's MacBook was lying on the floor.
"What happened here?" she thought with a frown. The MacBook looked out of place, as if it had just been thrown with excessive vigor.
She approached and looked at the laptop's still-lit screen, displaying a strange message: "Welcome to the world of Soul!" Danniel felt her heart racing.
"Could my sister be trapped in this game?" she thought as she tried to imagine a ridiculous situation where her sister was trapped in a virtual world, fighting monsters while wearing pajamas.
Suddenly, from inside the laptop came her sister's panicked voice. "Help! I'm stuck here! Help me!"Danniel felt as if she had just been slapped by reality. "Oh no! This isn't a joke!"
Without thinking, Danniel made the decision to catch up with her sister.
"If she's already trapped in there, I can't leave her alone!" She grabbed the MacBook charger and plugged it into the outlet, hoping to activate the portal. With one more click, she pressed the "Enter," button and in an instant, her body was sucked into the screen.
When she finally landed on the hard ground, Danniel quickly got up and looked around. She was in a dense forest with giant trees and strange noises all around her. "Little Sister! Where are you?" she shouted in a voice full of worry.
The government and executives created this in an attempt to have a deterrent effect on juvenile delinquents, the app was originally intended as a means to educate and correct behavior. By putting them through a stressful VR experience, developers hope teens will feel the consequences of their actions firsthand. Danniel was one of the app's creators, but she wasn't an executive.
Suddenly, from behind the bushes emerged a small figure with disheveled hair-her little sister! "Sis! I just found this cute monster!" she exclaimed, pointing out a furry creature with big, confused-looking eyes.
"Cute monster? That's not a cute monster! That could be a leg-eating monster!" replied Danniel while trying to hold back his laughter and tension all at once. She felt a mixture of annoyance and worry at her sister who seemed to be enjoying this adventure so much.
Danniel stood in front of her sister, her face filled with anger and worry.
"You know what, Grace? Everyone who enters this portal can't get out to their home world unless the Executive approves of that person's release or they successfully complete the game to the final stage and win!" Her voice echoed in the quiet living room, adding to the tension between them.
Grace, who was still shocked by what happened, tried to digest the information.
"But Sis, I don't know! I just want to try this game!" she replied in a panicked tone. She felt the gravity of the situation at hand. Not only trapped in a virtual world, but also threatened by this unfair system.
"This isn't a joke, Grace! This is serious! We don't know what will happen if we can't get out of here!" Danniel was frustrated. She loved her sister dearly, but her pretentious attitude made her angry.
"You always want to try new things without thinking about the consequences!
While Danniel was trying to calm herself down, Grace started thinking fast. She knew that they had to find a way to get out before it was too late.
"Sis, we have to figure out how to get the Executive's approval! Maybe there's a way to prove that we deserve to get out of here," she said with renewed vigor.
"How? We don't even know who the Executive is!" replied Danniel in a skeptical tone. However, seeing the determination on his brother's face, he began to feel a little inspired.
"But if we can find a way to play and win, maybe we can get out."
