Hello RPers,

I would like to inform you that this is a reboot of another RP from another site. This RP is a fantasy RP based off of anime such as .Hack// series or Sword Art Online, in things such as concept. The story takes place In a unknown company claiming to be the first to be the one to create a virtual reality system. To test this new system they sent out invitations to demo this new system in a Fantasy RPG, having many variety type of people, not just gamers, but athletes, frail and sick, to test the system to it's fullest extent for possibly other uses. But at the end of the demo, the supervisors come across a problem. What that problem is....The players can't return from the game world!?

The RP will start in with the invited waiting in the employee break room...


b7befd14-d066-44f9-8784-1540a422e9dd.png




There is a Company that announced the possibility of actual virtual reality becoming well...Reality! Some of the most brilliant minds and skillful technicians, and programmers on the planet had a hand in making this tech. They uses the most advanced technology known to man to make this system exist, and are sending invitations out to few to Beta test this new system. These lucky few will be thrown into a virtual fantasy game to help with the flaws in this new system, and they won't be just helping with the development of the game side of the system. No they will help with other possibilities the Company has for the system, that we hope can come to fruition. And all these Beta testers have to do is play through the game!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​



Greetings, ____________,


You have been selected to test out our brand new and world's first Virtual Reality System! You have been selected by The Company's 'Natural Selection Program'. You have the characteristic to help us turn this system into perfection, and hope that you accept our offer of a life time. Of course we won't be having you do this for free!. Once the testing is done, and we have perfected this great new technology, Each Tester will be given a copy of the game and Virtual Reality System of their very own and will each be a 1% cut at the time the Product is up on sale!

Now here's how the system works: It sinks into the conscientiousness of the player through the head gear, and pulls the person to an unconscious state where the Motor skills are deactivated. There it connected the senses of the player to the the game that he/she is going to play, making the most realistic sensation a game can ever bring. If you touch something in a game, with this system we made, you'll feel like you actually touched something. It's so precisest that you could feel the textures as well. But all things in testing have a few kinks to work out, but on't worry though, as testing commences the staff of The Company will be working constantly on maintenance to fix any problem to keep the players safe.

The Game that the selected players are going to be playing is a Fantasy Game. This game does seem like your typical Role Playing game, but the experience will be like nothing like any other RPG out there! You'll fight monsters with the best AI any game could ever give you. And the possibilities are endless. You can become a hero, a villain, king, or a legend among legends.

Now The choice is yours! Will you take part into the invention that could change the world as we know it and become some thing great within the virtual world? Or miss out on this once in a life time opportunity!?


Announcement!!!

  • Austin

    c03fe2fc-7a7d-4326-858a-d140856dd742_zpsm0wehbvc.jpg


    It was a hot summer day in the middle of August, a perfect day to stay in and play video games. But Austin had other plans. He was invited to test a new game system. He figure it was a good chance to see what the future held for gaming. He was one the first to arrive to the Company's HQ and had to wait for more to come before they started the test. He had to sign an agreement contract too to allow him to do this.


    In the lounge room waits all the invited 'Testers' to test run the new game system. They waited in a luxurious looking room, complete with a pool table and a small drink bar with non alcoholic drinks; it was in a workplace after all. The bar had a cappuccino maker, a soda fountain, and a smoothie dispenser. Time passed as 'gamers' gathered in the room slowly for the past few hours, waiting to test the system as well. Though it was a company no one else really seemed to enter the lounge besides the testers. But Austin didn't care.


    Austin was sitting in alone seat with his arms crossed as one his legs bounced agitated. He was getting aggravated from waiting so long. Austin was an average 6 feet tall, with a lean body type. He had Long red hair in a pony tail and a scowling face. If he was still in school, he be thought of as a bully or a thug with his looks alone. As Austin sat in the chair, he leaned forward, uncrossing his arms to rest his elbows on his knees as he looked around the room at all the other People in the room. They just seem like noobs in his eyes so he didn't give them much thought.


    Austin grumbled to himself as time just seemed to pass as some the last few finally entered the lounge. When a person with glasses and a clipboard in hand walked in, Austin suddenly yelled. “Augh! When are we going to play the god damn game!?” He asked out of the blue. Those were his first words he had said since he entered the lounge.


    The guy looked at him surprised as he jumped a bit. “Uh...Sorry about that, sir.” He said as he then corrected himself. “I’m here to tell you all that it will be just a bit more before you are allowed to test out the system. We came to a problem while setting up the systems for you all. So till it’s fixed, please indulge yourselves in the beverages and any snacks in the fridge as our apologies for having you wait so long.” The man said a bit timidly to Austin's anger. He seemed like a new intern or something. He looked at all the other guest in the lounge. He looked at Austin and gave him a nod and left the lounge. Austin grumbled at the man's words. "I actually came here to see if you all have finished filling out the medical forums, and signed the contracts..." The now slightly nervous Intern said.
 
Jenna Sue Bianco:


She was quite stoked to receive an invitation to be one of the few chosen teens to try out a brand new game, never thought such opportunity would fly up her way. All she can remember was the fact that she had received an important letter which she was quite late to see due to being abroad. Luckily enough she had just came back on the same day and didn't quite give any chance as she pestered her brother to get her to the required address since she couldn't quite drive quite yet. Nonetheless she arrived and quite early as a matter of that fact, "Thank you Jamie... I'll see you soon" she waved him off and got out of the car.


Entering the lounge room it hadn't quite a lot of people clambering in yet so she was quite early, she had trickles of sweat beading down her face due to the heat afflicting on her. This was no joke, out in this heat to test a game... sounds like something she wouldn't refuse. She made her way towards a seat near a red-haired boy who seemed to be alone. She didn't bother him of course, she simply sat there quietly fidgeting lightly with her charm bracelet on her right arm till time passed. This was a killer for her ... she never found herself in a situation where she knew no one.. where she was alone. She hated it. As time passed she saw a young intern enter when she heard the red haired boy exclaimed out something which her being nearby caused her to jump a few inches from her seat, surprised her and not just her but the poor intern as well.



Hearing the stuttering intern she was quite relaxed as the forms were already filled as she was greeted by them and she hadn't much to write as she didn't quite have any issues to begin with. However hearing that there were difficulties the girl groaned lightly,
"Oh Come On!" slumped back in her seat which meant more to wait and waiting without nothing to do was something that she was not a fan of.

Okay to be honest she almost didn't come. Not because she didn't like video games, not even because she didn't want to test a new VR. It was because she had a three hour softball practice last night and when she woke up she felt like she was going to shatter into a million pieces. But, instead of staying inside and sleeping the day away, she threw on the first things she saw in her closet (which ended up being unbelievably mix-matched) and headed to the building, not just because she wanted to, it was also because her she needed the money for college.

Raven walked through the doors and looked around the lobby, her eyes immediately landing on the food. She walked over to the little food/drink bar they had going on and discreetly piled like eight things on her plate.

She sat down and finally noticed the other people in the room. More importantly the really pissed looking dude with the red hair. Whats with him? She wondered, glancing back down and filling out the medical sheet that she had picked up near the entrance.

She saw a guy walk through the doors- really shy looking according to her- and sit down in front of a window like it was some movie or whatnot. Soon enough an young looking guy- about early twenties?- walked through the door, barely able to get a sentence out before the red haired guy started yelling. Raven sat idly by, trying not to laugh as the whole thing went down. And she thought she had anger issues.​

Zach Huntington-Lounge




Zach stood in front of the building proudly. He was a bit surprised that he alone was chosen to participate in this beta test, but was happy nonetheless. It's not everyday you get an opportunity like this. Finally, he could beta test a new game. His nerves were getting the better of him since he read up on what exactly would be going on. Under his arm, he clutched a small manila folder which contained both his contract along with medical information. That, at least in Zach's opinion, was the scariest part. He read over the contract a couple of times and learned that the company would not be in any way, shape, or form be responsible for any injuries/death that may occur during testing. He shrugged off the death part seeing as how he had no clue as to how someone could die testing out a video game of all things but oh well.


After some walking, Zach finally made it to the lounge. He saw a nervous man with glasses and a clipboard informing the rest that the beta would be delayed and that he needed to pick up all signed contracts and medical papers. Zach slowly walked up to the man as he handed him the manila folder before turning around to walk over to the group. Right as he was about to walk up to them, Zach caught sight of himself in a mirror. He looked alright, could have definitely spent more time to make himself look...presentable. As it currently stood, Zach currently had on a basic grey shirt with appeared to be a pair of lounge pants of the same color with streaks of blue running from the ankle up to the knee, widening as it went higher. If a person had a keen eye, they'd be able to catch the multiple patches from different sponsors were all over the pant-legs but seemed to stop at around the knees. His hair was messy as always, but that didn't really seem to bother Zach. And to top it all off, Zach had on a simple pair of black sandals. You're generic gamer.


Zach smiled at himself in the mirror before sitting down on a couch nearby the group. He looked at the man who was yelling at the poor intern not too long ago and shot him a small smile before making a small gesture with his hand almost as if to say "hey, take it easy". He then turned his attention to the others and showed that same smile he wore on a daily basis. They all seemed like good people.

Jenna Sue Bianco:


The poor girl was still under shock at the outburst only cause she was on the verge of dozing off and too absorbed in her charm bracelet to notice the unnerving boy. Nonetheless when her heart attack calmed down she noticed a female that had came in behind the intern and sighed, another female maybe she can get along with. She didn't want to approach her yet and impose herself but the girl showed her a friendly smile and that she didn't bite. Jenn in fact liked making new friends and she was in need of some before she went mental not knowing anyone. After the encounter she saw an average looking gamer walking through the door shooting them all a smile which in turn she reciprocated.


The heat however was still getting to her and she tied her long light brown hair up into a high ponytail leaving a few strands out of her fringe. In the need of refreshment she got up to the bar and asked for a glass of cold water to moisten her throat from the dryness it was encountering, it felt dryer then the Sahara desert in there. Upon receiving her beverage, she downed it and returned the glass before she made her way back.However as she was walking the thing that was bound to happen to Jenn happened. Her foot hit the edge of the carpet and caused her to stumbled forward and down on the floor with a groan. She wanted the floor to swallow her whole by this as her face shone bright red, least to be expected by a clutz.

Riley Lorand




"Guhh... Today's weather is terrible..."


Riley slouched while she made her way down the sidewalk towards the testing site. She had been walking under the sun for almost 40 minutes due to the fact that both of her parents had driven to work, and couldn't offer her a ride. 'It's close to the house, they said. It won't be that bad, they said!' Mentally shouting her complaints towards her parents, Riley checked the inside of her duffle bag to make sure that she had everything. Contracts, Medical Forms, a variety of pranking goods... Everything was there.


Once she confirmed the contents of her bag (not that anything would change if she didn't have them -- she'd just walk inside the HQ and get the required documents there), she relished the feeling of a car trailing past her while closing the bag. Once she finished, she turned to the company's HQ. Normally, she would offer a retort like 'Why the hell are you so edgy?' towards the building, but in this heat, she simply approached the entrance with a small grumble. Inside, the temperature was considerably cooler, making Riley sigh with relief as she approached the front desk for directions, which she was given without any issues. After a couple of short detours to set up classic door pranks, she arrived at the designated waiting room.


"This is the place~ I made it~ I'm comin' Elizabeth! -- Ah, wait, that reference doesn't make sense here, huh." Wandering in with those words, Riley wiped off a drop of sweat that had developed on her brow and made her way past the awkward intern, and towards the drinks as if she had known they were there all along. There were other people in the room, including a man who seemed to be part of the staff, but Riley didn't pay any attention to them. It was too hot to think about others.


It was unfortunate, but the only 'cooled' room seemed to be the entrance, so the temperature became quite warm everywhere else... Maybe the air conditioning was broken? Regardless, Riley grabbed a cooled Pepsi bottle and opened it without delay, practically chugging the beverage in one go before leaking a semi-loud "Haaa..." followed by the sound of an air-horn erupting somewhere in the building, followed by a short shriek.


In response, Riley smiled ear to ear. Today was going to be a good day.

Vera had thought the night before that she was prepared, nothing was going to delay her. But apparently fate had a much different plan. She had planned to go to bed decently early, though that was soon impossible due to the thermostat in her small apartment breaking and the only available time for the supposedly 24 hour repair service to come was 9:30 PM. Yet after waiting for the man who was fashionably late and hour and waiting for him to fix the damn thing, the woman then finally hit the pillow at around 11:45.


Things couldn't possibly get worse, but they did. Vera overslept, leaving only 20 minutes to get ready. And she still hadn't emailed her professors to explain why she wouldn't be attending class. And so, she threw on an oversized hoodie that had seen better days, an older pair of jeans, slipped on some untied tennis shoes and rand a brush though her mess of a hair whilst locking the door and heading out to her car.



It was rush hour, so traffic was brutal, especially in the city. Cussing at the multitude of other citizens trying to made the dreaded commute to a job they'd rather not have.



Finally, 55 minutes late, the woman arrived at the rather impressive building. Vera found a parking spot before practically running inside and explaining to the front desk what she was here for. And before long, she followed a woman back into a fully wait room, complete with pool tables, gaming consoles, and
food! Ignoring anyone she past by, she quickly grabbed a soda for the caffeine and some sort of fancy muffin before taking a seat in the corner of the room and began filling out the required paperwork while also surveying the other testers. The red haired guy seemed to have quite the mouth on him and a few looked to be young, still children...'Why would they have kids test something so...dangerous...'

Raven quietly observed the people around her, seemingly understanding why the guy with the red hair was so irritated, it was taking forever. She looked around the room, studying the people she would be in a virtual world with. The kid sitting in the corner of the room near the window still had yet to speak. The guy who just walked in looked like all of her friends, not a bad thing, just predictable. He was smiling at them, for some reason. She didn't understand why exactly, but she saw how it was a nice gesture. She didn't smile back because she was too lost in her own mind, probably making her look like a complete bitch because her resting face looked like she would fight every one of them with no regrets. Before she could return the smile, he turned away from here, looking at someone else. While she was making these observations, a girl, maybe her age, tripped and fell onto the ground, going as red as a tomato. Before she could help her up, she heard an airhorn followed by a scream. She let out a short chuckle and watched as the other girl grinned ear to ear, no doubt responsible for the noise. She could be friends with her, she seemed cool. She noticed a lady walk through the door and tilted her head, she seemed older than the rest of them, but dressed in the same leisurely way. She was probably a tester. which proved that there really was no consistency in the way they chose everyone. Raven checked her phone and frowned when she saw someone calling her, instantly loosening up when she saw the id.





"I thought Sunday was trash day." She retorted, when she accepted the call.

"Oh shut up, as if you aren't trash too."

She was about to object when she looked down at her wardrobe.


"Okay fair enough."


"So how's your testing going, is it cool?"

"Well im obviously in the game as we speak and I have the time to tell you every single detail, including the amazingly animated grass."

"Oh cool! So tell me then!"

"Sarcasm."

"Oh."

Zach Huntington-Lounge




Zach remained silent as did the rest of the people. He heard the sound of an air horn going off and a girl sitting at the bar smiling like Cheshire cat over there. He simply shook his head at the little prank and got up before slowly walking over to the bar himself, all of his patches out in the open. Some were popular soda brands while others were independent game companies or teams. He ordered a simple root-beer and waited for the person behind the counter to fill up his glass.


Once Zach got his order, he simply began to sip the soda through a straw. Nothing overly exciting. He then looked over to the girl who had obviously set up the prank as he laughed. "
Was the air horn you? If it was, nice job. When I used to live with my team, we had a pond in the back. They picked up my mattress and set me adrift in the water." He said, recalling that horrible morning. Having to swim in pajamas is never fun.


@Ensig
 
Riley Lorand




"Pffhuhuhu..." Riley snickered lightly as she thought about what sort of expression her victim was making somewhere in the building. Shock? Frustration? Orgasmic bliss? That last one was unlikely, but she considered the possibility regardless.


"Was the air horn you?" Riley turned her eyes to the young man who had just ordered a drink beside her, looking up at him due to the difference in height. "If it was, nice job. When I used to live with my team, we had a pond in the back. They picked up my mattress and set me adrift in the water."


"Kuha... Hahaha!" Laughing as the man recounted his story, Riley wiped off a stray tear that had gathered in her eye and grinned as she responded. "Your friends sound great, man. And yeah, that was me. There're more of them around, too." Holding a hand to the side of her mouth as if to hide what she was about to say next, Riley whispered a tad loudly for the man to hear. "If you plan on going to the men's room down the hall, make sure to duck before going in."


She had set up a plastic wrap trap in front of that door, so it was only fair to give the man a warning if he planned on going there -- it was the least she could do for having him share his story with her. It wasn't enough to tell him that the wrap wasn't the only trap in the mens' room however. There was also a water-filled cup awaiting anyone who walked in the door -- regardless of whether they dodged the wrap. Laughing to herself with a "Hehehe~" Riley pushed herself off the counter of the bar and spun in place before turning back to the man once again with a thumb jabbing towards herself.


"The name's Riley, I-G-N is usually Riles. What's yours, Mr. Advertisement-Pants?"


@Isune
 
Zach Huntington-Still in the lounge




Zach grinned as she mentioned ducking when he went to the men's bathroom. He instantly knew about the little prank she was talking about, but the grin soon turned to a face of false disappointment. He then suddenly scolded the girl,"None on the toilet? How can you possibly call yourself a prankster if you don't go all the way with the wrap?" before letting out a slight chuckle.


After his little statement, Zach returned to his root-beer. He took a few more sips from the glass before the girl suddenly stood up and introduced herself as Riley and told him that her usual IGN was Riles before calling him "
Mr. Advertisement-Pants", which plastered the same grin on his face. He stood up as well and placed his foot on a stool before running his hands up his leg. "You wish you had pants like these," Zach retorted "These are some of the most comfortable pants I have ever worn. I love these. If it's ever cold enough, I just sleep in them. One day, you might even get your own."


Zach finally removed his leg from the stool as he suddenly remembered her asking for his IGN. He took a seat at the bar once he got his leg free and finally said his IGN. "
Yafang at your service. I do MMOs when I'm bored, fighting games, and I'm on a shooter team."


@Ensig
 
"You're right, my jealousy is eating me alive~"


Bringing a hand to her forehead as though she had been struck with an incurable illness, Riley laughed as 'Yafang' spoke about his pants with passion, and then introduced himself.


"Pleasure to meet you Pant man! I'm just gonna go out on a limb and say you're a Gamer by trade?" pointing down at his sandals and then up to the rest of his clothing, Riley raised an eyebrow while guessing his occupation. It was either that, or a NEET that had made his way out of his room, and just so happened to tape the logos of soda companies and other such things on his legs, so she was giving him the benefit of the doubt.

The forms she had to fill out, check boxes and sign on wee quite...difficult to process. The first few were basic information, her full name, age, gender, place of residency, et cetra. The next was a basic background on her gaming history, simple enough. Though after that, Vera grew a bit disturbed. The whole fifth page was about liability the company would have if she was injured or killed and possible side effects the "subject" may experience, everything from a small headache to, in more severe cases, loss of one or more senses and or response in a certain limb, failure of certain bodily functions, early onset of conditions that should only occur much later in life such as dementia or Alzheimer's and even in the fine print she swore she read the word "impregnation" somewhere... Vera gritted her teeth and allowed herself to basically sign her life away, also regretting she didn't have a will written up...but what did she had to give to anybody anyway? An only child to elderly parents, no children of her own nor a spouse or a pet even.


After sitting there thinking her life over in a somewhat depressing manner, the woman was soon removed from this stupor as a man and younger girl were talking. Seeing as Vera needed to...distract herself from the nearly impossible amount of "what-ifs" she stood with paperwork in hand and made her way over to what appeared to be a staff personal based upon the labcoat he wore. Nearing the man se cleared her throat to get his attention before speaking.
"Um...excuse me sir, I have fini-" "Thank you miss." She was cut off and abruptly spoken to before the small pile of papers were quickly snatched from her hand without another word.


Turning and shaking her head momentarily to try and clear her mind of the awkward encounter, Vera then slowly made her way over to the rather talkative pair occupying the bar. Once they finished speaking, she allowed herself to enter.
"Hello...I'm assuming you two are testers as well?"

Zach simply nodded as Riley asked if he was a gamer. "One of the few American gamers to actually win a championship." he responded with a sigh as he remembered what it was like to actually win. It was incredible, everyone cheering your name and the people who lifted him up like he had just saved the world. That feeling was one of the best a gamer could ever experience.


During Zach's memories, he heard a voice which instantly snapped him back to the real world. Another girl approached the two and asked if he and Riley were testers. Zach nodded once more and responded,"
Yes ma'am. I'm assuming you are too? I'm really excited to get into the game." before finishing off his root beer and sliding the glass back to the bartender. The wait was horrible, but hopefully it'd all be worth it soon. Zach was so close to just waltzing into the testing room and asking what the whole wait was about.

    c03fe2fc-7a7d-4326-858a-d140856dd742_zpsm0wehbvc.jpg


    Austin huffed at the intern as he sat back in his chair crossing his arms again as a girl by him exclaimed her frustration as well. He noticed the guy with messy hair and sponsor patches along his legs. He narrowed his eyes at him as he gestured him to cool down. Austin just clicked his tongue at him and looked away.


    The intern then walked around to each Tester to collect the papers that weren’t yet. First coming up to a woman with a odd mach of clothes before he jumped at the sound of a sudden air horn down the hall. Hearing the shriek the interns left to check what was going on.


    Austin sighed hearing the air horn as well and looked to the short girl with a wide ass grin. He could tell she was the one to that caused that. He then watched the girl by him tie her hair up and got up to get a drink. After she got something to drink and downed it, she walked away and tripped hitting the floor. He sighed calming himself for now as he then got up and helped her up. She was really red faced now, more and likely out of embarrassment than falling on her face. He then grabbed a drink for himself and opened it. As he drank he looked at the last few that came in; A guy against a wall with his face mainly hidden with a hood, sun glasses, and medical mask who seemed awfully suspicious to him. Another was a pale woman who seemed to be in college, who seemed to be doing the same as him.


    He stopped sipping when he noticed the guy who waved at him was at the bar. He wondered if he was a competitive player or not with all those patches. He was talking to the girl that more and likely did the air horn, but he didn’t eavesdrop and left them. To go back to his seat he had. On the way he noticed the girl with the mismatched clothing on the phone but paid it no mind.

Riley Lorand




Riley responded to the woman's question with a short nod. Other than the guy in the lab coat who had wandered out of the room, she didn't think there was really anyone but testers here. The rest of the staff were either making finishing touches for everyone here, or getting hindered by Riley's pranks, after all.


The only mysterious thing about this situation was... "How the heck did you get two girls to talk to you, Not-Trunks-but-with-trunks?" Riley made a pensive pose with her hand at her chin while turning to the side. "A high schooler and a business woman... Even though you're a gamer..?" Turning her head with a critical stare, her next words came out with an odd mixture of sarcasm mixed with razor-sharp-prejudice: "Riajuu, go explode."


After saying so, the staff member from earlier walked into the room holding her pranking tools in his partially-wet hands. In response...


"PFFFHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHHAHA!"


Facing the mildly-angry intern, Riley literally broke down with laughter, falling to her knees and holding her stomach while pointing at the unfortunate soul.

Vera jumped slightly when the air horn sounded, and as the intern who had collected her papers stormed out and demanded who had placed the apparent prank she couldn't parttake in the giggling. Though it was soon apparent that she was one of the oldest here, as many, especially the girl she had approached, erupted in a storm of mindless laughter.


And this is why she disliked children.



Rolling her eyes, the woman then gave the girl a harsh glare.
"I'm not sure someone so...immature should be testing such a device." Before moving past the pair and asking the personal tending the bar for a few paper towels. After gaining some, Vera made her way over to the man and offered them. Which he then examined her briefly before accepting them with a bitter expression set upon his soaking wet face.


@Isune @Ensig
 



  • The intern faced Riley as she was laughing so hard it seemed to be causing her pain; watching her laugh like that made his anger grow even more. He even ignored the pale woman who offered him paper towels. “Why You…!” He said as he stepped forward as if he was going to do something to her as he glared at her.


    That’s enough Aizawa…” A stern voice called out as three people in lab coats walked in. “You should really learn to control that anger…that is if you want to continue working here.” A tall and handsome man said as he took a drag on his cig. He had long grayish black hair and under the open coat was clothing like he just came out of a club.


    The intern looked to him and bowed. “Sorry Kyugo, sir…” As the intern said this, the young woman with really long hair and an expressionless face reached up and took the cig from Kyugo, put it out and broke it as she threw it away with no hesitation.


    Kuchiku…” Kyugo said to her in a low grumble as he looked at her and sighed. The other male in a lab coat chuckled to himself as he got a glare from Kyugo. “Fine just go…” Kyugo said then looked to the testers that were in the lounge. “So this is all of them?” He said as the Intern left.


    Seems so.” The other male said as he looked at a clip board. He was slimmer than Kyugo with shorter hair, younger and wore glasses “Though we seem to be missing a couple.” He informed Kyugo.


    Hm, Fine they’ll just be missing out…if anything they're the lu-“ Kyugo started as he started at the testers but was nudged by the other male. Kyugo glared at him then cleared his throat. He then noticed the girl on the phone and to gestured Kuchiku.


    She went straight up to the girl and snatched up the phone quickly and turned it off. As she did she looked to the girl it belong with an emotionless face but something about her made it seem like a threat. Then started to go to the other testers to gather any electronics they may have and giving them the same type of look.


    Sorry I can’t allow any recordings of any kind leave here...Plus you signed the contracts” He said then looked at the girl who was laughing at the Intern. He then snapped to get Kuchi’s attention and pointed to the bag he assumed was hers. “You…” He said pointing to Riley. "Some the delays were due to you…So We’ll confiscate your bag too…” He said in an unpleased voice. This got her a look for the other testers at least the red head. He then looked to the rest. “Sorry for the delays, but the system is finally ready.” He said in a tone like he didn’t care. “I’m Kyugo, the head Scientist, and the developer in the company. I’m also the creator of the system you will be testing in. These two are my left and right hands; Kumoi, and Kuchiku.” He said. Kumoi just waved half heartedly as Kuchiku just gathered the devices.


    After Kuchicu took the devises from everyone in one rude way or another, she returned to Kyugo’s side. Kyugo then cleared his throat again and looked at the testers. “Now my apologies for the delay as most of it wasn’t miss…uh” Kyugo paused.


    Riley…” Kumio whispered in his ear.


    Riley’s fault.” Kyugo finished.


    Yeah it was mostly your’s” Kumoi said as he looked away with a cheeky smirk as Kyugo glared at him; though Kuchiku nodded confirming this.


    Kyugo sided and looked back at the testers again. “We’ll explain things along the way to the lab about the system you’ll be testing out. Hopefully by the time we get there you won’t have any questions.” Kyugo said with the last bit under his breath as he turned around and gestured to the testers to follow. Kumoi and Kuchiku walked not too far behind him, as Kuchiku made sure the testers followed. She kept a close eye on Riley at that.


    As they walked through the hall, Kyugo explained quite a bit about the system he worked on. “This new system I brought to reality is taking a few steps up from modern game systems that use such things as motion controls and systems such as the Oculus rift, with only gave the illusion that you were playing a game in a virtual world, this new system takes that and throws it away. It’s not an illusion no more, but damn near close to reality itself.” He said though he didn’t seem all the pleased or impressed with it. “This is achieved through the system by connecting to the users brain itself, through our specially made gear.” He said then looked over his shoulder at the group to make sure if they were listening.


    Kumoi looked back at the testers with a kind smile. “You don’t need to worry though; we’re not going to stick needles in your head or anything like that. It connects to the brainwaves your minds emit…like a wireless connection if you will.” Kumoi insured the testers. “But with this, you can experience more sensations other than just sight and sound like you would in those dated systems. Heck, you may experience something you may have never witnessed before…then again you are going into a virtual world that based on fantasy.” He said as he scratched his chin while he looked at them like they were the lucky ones.


    Kyugo continued to where Kumio left off. “This is due to the system’s ability to connect to your brainwaves, but is only possible if the person is in a subconscious state…such as being asleep. The gear we developed for the system should help with that.” He dully said though he didn’t go into how that worked.


    And for those sleep walkers among you, this gear we been talking about should also halt your motor skills as you’re under…But you’ll be strapped down for further safety…” He said that last bit under his breath as he pretended to cough.


    Kyugo huffed to himself at that statement. “There is still a lot about the system capabilities that are unknown to us however. Mostly due to lack of knowledge about the brain itself…But that is why you are here. To help us discover this system’s potential as you play along with the game.” He said Game in a mocking tone. “Because this system’s only limitation is pretty much limited by one’s brain.” Kyugo told them as they came to a huge mechanized door. He then pulled out an ID card from his coat pocket and swiped it on the card reading handle and then entered a code. The doors then started to open to a highly advanced looking computer room filled with desks covered in multiple monitors with other people in lab coats working on them. They didn’t pay the testers any mind and just focused on their work, as if they were just robots.


    In the far back of the room were a massive computer and monitor. Kyugo lead them to that computer. As they got closer there was a hospital bed by it with, what looked like a helmet of some sort, resting on the pillow. Kyugo stopped in front of the computer and turned to the group along with the other two. “Ok I need a volunteer real quick to demonstrate what to expect when you first enter the system.” He asked. The first to offer was a hooded person with sunglasses and mask on. Second being the red head. “Hmm…” He then leaned to Kumoi for info. “I think that’s Rusine…He’s from the family….and is the terminally Ill one…The Red head’s the pro gamer nick named Berserker. He’s played plenty of national games.” Kumoi explained in a whisper. Kyumo nodded and straitened up. “Rusine…Sorry I can’t accept you as the candidate…You’ll be getting your own room when we set this up.” He told him and the boy lowered his hand. “Berserker You’ll be a great candidate to show off the starting process.” He said and the boy started to walk up to them. “It’s Austin…Not Berserker…” He said but Kyugo just shrugged not caring.


    I’ll let Kumoi take it from here.” He said as Kuchiku strapped Austin in the bed and the gear on his head. As Austin was put under the massive screen came on and showed us an empty room before a digitized Austin was brought up. He went through the cycles of making his character as Kumoi went on about explaining in detail of everything Austin was going through. Saying stuff like wasn’t interchangeable moments ago, that everyone has a choice of 2 weapons at start, How magic and skills work and what magic is available at start of the game for each race.


    After explaining Kumoi lead them to a room connected to this one which looked like a hospital room with all the beds and medical machines. There were even nurses to help them strap in as well. A nurse lead Rusine to a separate room entirely.

Jack yawn rolling over in his sleep and opened his eyes "Crap i'm late!" he gasped seeing the time on the clock.jumping out of bed he accidentally hit his head on the bed post.Throwing on some clothes he rushed down the stairs but he tripped and fell the whole way down.when he finally stopped rolling he got up and rubbed his back which ached but he had no time for that forcing himself up he ran 9into the kitchen "morning mom morning dad" he said snatching a waffle that juts popped out of the toaster.He shoved the waffle into his mouth as he quickly pulled his shoe on."See yah jenny" he said ruffling jenny's hair as she ate her waffles before sprinting out the door. as he rounded the corner and ran towards the building he thought *What if they don't let me in*. bursting through the doors he saw a group of people being lead away. secretly he snuck into the group and followed them into a room that remind him of the hospital room he went tob when he broke his foot.

Zach Huntington-Finally, some progress!




Zach watched as everything went down with the intern and Riley. He remained silent as the intern and developer began to talk about what could be expected once they finally get into the game. When another person came walking around to pick up any and all electronic devices. Although reluctant, Zach handed over his smartphone. If that thing broke in their care, Zach would come after them with a vengeance.


After everything was taken care of, Zach stood up and began to walk with the rest of the group. He listened very attentively to the developer and nodded every now and then. That was when a sudden stranger came running in from the rear. Zach raised an eyebrow, but remained silent as he merely waved and pointed to the developer as he turned back around to listen.



Once everyone was in the lab, Zach stared at all of the beautiful machinery. He stared at the many lines of coding that were plastered on each if not every screen at this point. He watched the demonstration and made mental notes as they began to be led to a hospital area. He quickly sat down on a bed and gave a thumbs up to the nurse as she carefully strapped him down and began to transition to virtual reality. Zach was too excited to contain himself, a once in a lifetime
opportunity and Zach was one of the few that were able to participate.




Birth of Yafang!

He looked through each of his options very closely and decided to go with a thief kitsune, completely unaware that one had already been created. He decided to give himself blonde hair compared to his standard brown and messed with the ears and tail for a bit. After a while, Yafang was finally ready to see the light of day. Zach hit enter and was suddenly overwhelmed with all these new feelings.


Yafang looked around and was astounded. He could feel his claw-like nails as if he had them forever. He ran his fingers across the smooth iron that were his gauntlets. They left part of his fingers exposed to make use of his little claws if need be. The knuckles seemed a bit pointed, most like to add a bit more strength into his blows. He felt his canine like teeth and were amazed by how they were able to replicate things like this. As he reached down to his belt loop he felt a set of chains. He looked down and notice a mini scythe attached to it. A kusarigama, neat. He took it out from his belt loop as he began to swing the little blade around, trying his best not to slice his own head off. Words alone couldn't describe how amazing this was.



Now that he began to look around, Yafang saw that he was in a nice town. He grinned as he watched all the people talk and walk throughout the town. The coding in this game was incredible! He noticed a few other people wearing armor. He couldn't quite see what they were, but he waved to them with a happy little smile on his face. Something told Yafang that he'd really enjoy this game.

Vera was somewhat surprised as he pushed her away though she couldn't blame him, he was probably too pissed to even care that someone was try to help. Backing up towards the bar, she returned the unused paper towels to the staff behind it before focusing onto the what appeared the three running this project. The woman who came around collecting electronics was quite harsh as well thorough. When approaching Vera, she explained that she had forgotten her cell phone in her car, in which she had though that wasn’t apparently believable as she shoved her hands into the pockets of her hoodie and jeans before reluctantly moved on with the same emotionless expression as the other two.


It wasn’t long before they “apologized” for the delay and instructed the group to follow. Doing so, Vera claimed her jaw shut, laid her hands into the pocket of her now violated outerwear, and walked near the front but no so much as to seem overly eager to begin the process. As he spoke, everything seemed either way too advanced with the technology currently available, or just outright insane. Though as he swiped his little card and allowed them to enter the rather hospital-esc room complete with buzzing fluorescent lights, a throat burning sterile stench, and white
everything all the equipment began to make the woman wonder what she was getting herself into. Though as the redhead went first and they got to witness how it all went down on a monitor, she began to rethink her current bias. Maybe this was possible and she was simply...over thinking things.


The group of testers was then led to another room lined with beds next to the helmets they were to use. They were only separated by a suspended sheet similar to one would find in the recovery section of a hospital. Though as one of the kids were lead away to their own room, she frowned a bit wondering as to why that was necessary. Though that question soon held no important value as a nurse who was all but eyes as scrubs and a mask concealed her face and torso pulled her by the hand over to one of the first beds in the line-up. Hoisting herself up and lying back, Vera took a deep breath as the device was attached to her head. And before long, she was under the assumption that she had fallen asleep.



Yet, it was very obvious that she wasn’t…



It felt akin to coming up for air after being submerged underwater for a bit too long. She blinked open her eyes and gasped for air, quite startled at how real everything felt. Her senses were muddled and confused as if still trying to figure out what the bloody hell was going on.



And to be completely honest, she was as well.



Deciding to keep her overall features the same, she decided to select the fighter class and earth as an element but as she scrolled through the long list of races, she didn’t know what to chose! And after a bit of deliberation with herself, Vera finally chose to select a “randomize” option and immediately enter the game to keep it a surprise.



It was a surprise all right...



Vricesia blinked as the town formed around her and she immediately noticed two things. The first being how life like everything felt, and the second how
tall she was. Frowning lightly, the test glanced at herself before letting her eyes widen with more than enough surprise to go around.


A horse.



She was half
horse.


Letting this realization sink in, the woman turned around and examined almost every inch of herself. The way the cobblestone path felt under her
feet hooves, her tail swaying, the weight of the armor upon her torso and back...dear Lord…


THIS WAS AMAZING!



Turning left, then right, followed by rearing up once, she was grinning quite extensively. After landing Vricesia noticed two items on her hips, which turned out to be each a scimitar in their respective sheaths. Nodding to herself and not having felt this happy in ages, she spotted a few people not far off and decided to approach them, seeing if the other testers were as amazed as she was.

Jack watched both the redhead and black haired people go first and he stepped closer to the screen.keeping his eye color the same and his hair he click the button labeled Shapeshifter.he finished filling out some of the minor details then he was warped into the game.looking down he smiled as he saw his bright blue armor .he stretched his fingers before looking into his inventory and saw he had a iron sword with a blue handle and 10,000 coins.looking around he noticed what looked to be a black haired girl centaur and a guy kitsune with blond hair who seemed to be in awe at his new form. smiling Jack opened his mouth to call to the others but nothing came out,feeling confused he tried agin."whats wrong" he thought before approaching the centaur girl.As he approached the girl he couldn't help but feel the breeze and watched his scarf blow in the breeze.when he got to the girl he stopped trying to figure out how he could talk to her.He waved at the centaur before suddenly realizing why he couldn't speak "Ther mustbe a glitch in the game".he facepalmed feeling very stupid before he realized his username wasn't filled in "oh its probably because i never filled in the paper work." he thought before quickly entering his options and going to the username sections.thinking of a great username he wrote "MuteSolider" smiling he got out of options and looked back up at the girl waving shyly again.

Riley Lorand




"I'm not sure someone so...immature should be testing such a device."


Continuing to laugh as the woman glared at her, Riley returned her stare and with an impish smile. 'I think you've got that backwards. It's because I'm immature I should be testing something like this!' Turning back to face the still-fuming intern, she continued thinking to herself, keeping her voice to herself with her internal monologue keeping herself. 'Most adults aren't gamers, y'know? They're kids. Kids! Immaturity is the main, get it?'


Shrugging as she finished her mental rebuttal, Riley watched as the intern refused the pale woman's assistance, a look of rage present on his face, causing Riley to cover her face and give off quiet "Oh, is he gonna blow? Is he gonna bloooow~?" before three scientists came through the door, thus calming the intern down immediately.


"Muuu... It was just getting good, too~" If this were a manga, Riley would surely be shouting "Boo, boo!" in the background as she watched the staff-woman take the electronics of the testers in the room... As well as Riley's bag after putting part of the game's delay on her. She had only been in the building for half an hour or so, so she simply shrugged the accusation off. As for her bag being taken away... That was fine, given the fact she didn't have anything left in it. She had already placed over 20 traps in the building, so... Even if they took the bag, they wouldn't be getting rid of her pranks. Grinning to herself at that fact, when the woman came to take her bag and cellphone, Riley gave a short fake-salute and pointed to her bag.


She hadn't actually brought her cellphone today, though. Not only had she walked here from her house, she had also given the location of the building to her parents, so she wouldn't need to call them when she needed to leave. If she got off early, she'd walk. If she wanted to do something afterwards, she'd just talk with her parents when they arrived.


When the group was led out of the room by the system's creator, Riley followed after with her arms behind her head, not minding the stare from the expressionless staff member following behind the group. She really wanted to break that expression, but... Well, there wasn't anything that could be done about it. For now, at least. Nodding to herself as the group moved along, she gave out short interjections like 'I'm not saying that something like SAO might happen, but if it does, just remember I called it~' with her hands on her hips, 'Straps? Be gentle~' while holding her cheeks as if she were blushing, and 'These guys reaaaally need a pay-raise, huh?'. The group then arrived in front of what Riley would call: 'The big one'.


"Compensating for something~?" Riley added with a giggle as 'Berserker' was strapped in and went unconscious, before looking at his supposed actions appearing on-sreen. Riley was only slightly disappointed when he selected a Male avatar. The Tsundere Red Knight Genderbender route was sealed... How pitiful. The younger male staff member then explained the mechanics of the game, which Riley payed proper attention to. She might be mischievous... But she was here to be a Tester. Not listening to tips by the devs was simply foolish: nothing more, nothing less.


That's why, she didn't make any witty comments until the group arrived at a hospital-like area, where she scanned over the nurses before elbowing the woman who had tripped in the waiting room before when she spotted a male nurse that seemed attractive enough to question whether he was actually a nurse or not. Being a model would have payed way more, after all. "Psst... As your friend -- and yes, we're friends -- I'll allow you to go with him, so make sure to enjoy yourself, alright?"


Winking, Riley walked over to one of the more nondescript nurses, waving behind her without looking back/listening to what her 'friend' responded with. The nurse strapped her in without a hitch, placing the helmet on Riley and...

"Fufufufu..."


With eerie laughter inside of the character creation options, Riley's smile went ear to ear as she looked over her completed avatar. It was beautiful. It was devilish. It had bright colors that annoyed one's eyes! It was... An Imp!


"GUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"


Making her new creation a Dark-element Mage (what else would she choose for an Imp?) and choosing the gear that seemed to offer the best mobility and increase to her Magic, Riley entered her usual IGN -- "Riles" -- and entered the game.


...


"This place... Is pretty great, huh?"


That was all Riley -- now Riles -- could muster in response to the feeling she was experiencing. It felt... Really real. Indescribable, even -- at best 'It's amazing...' was the only solid thought she could have for a couple of moments, and it was a description that was completely earned. This really was true immersion... Thinking so, Riles was filled with energy once again, her tail whipping side-to-side subconsciously as she raised her arms to the sky.


"This is AWESOOOOOME!"

Yafang




Yafang continued to stare in complete awe at not only him, but those around him. It seemed like more testers were joining, which meant more amazing looking characters. He quickly pushed his way through the crowd when he noticed Vera, or at least someone who looked a lot like her. Once he finally reached her though, his jaw dropped as he looked at the lower half of a horse. Yafang grinned as he sat down on all fours without even realizing it, his tail swished around on the ground as he looked up at Vera.


"
You're huge," said Yafang with utter amazement in his tone "If I had known you could be a centaur I would have made one too!" Eventually, Yafang got up and ran his hand along her fur. It felt really soft, just like a real horse. He grinned as he walked up in front of Vera and went back and forth from the tips of his toes to the balls of his heels. He then suddenly clasped both his hands together in a pleading manner before asking,"Do you think I could get a ride? Please? I wanna see if it registers, it's for...testing purposes! Yeah, testing purposes."





This world was straight up amazing! They could be just about anything they could ever want, and the way everything felt, it felt almost as if he had lived here all his life. The way he could feel the sun on his back and the fresh air. It was still impossible to believe that this was going to be a game. Not to mention, the game was still in development! If this was the development stage, Yafang couldn't wait to see the completed product. There was no doubt in his mind that it would be on of the best, if not the best, game to ever grace game stores around the world.
