Chapter 2: Welcome To The Game!

“Looks like you are feeling well now, aren’t you Mr.Greed?”

“Hell if I am feeling well in this shitty cabin of yours! Don’t think that food of yours is gonna make me agree to do whatever you want! Listen here you little piece of shit! If you think I have something to give you then you’ve got the wrong guy. I don’t have anything to do with you and these beaten up kids, so just untie me and drop me back to my house Damnit!!!”

“Are you done talking Mr.Greed? Now listen carefully to what I am about to say and don’t interrupt in between or else you won’t be able to go home” *pointing toward an armed man aimed on shin*

Is this guy nuts? He is serious about killing me!!!! “Arrhhh!!!….....okay fine, but whatever it is I won’t agree to it no matter what you do!”

“I know you will” *whispers in his ears* “You have to, cause you don’t have choice here” *grinning*

Damn you! Asshole!!

“So, shall we?”

“Yeah.....go ahead”

“For starters, you can call me ‘administrator’ or ‘admin’. I am chairman of a game development company. Few months ago, our company developed a VR game called ‘A Game of Life and Death’. Let’s give you a little walkthrough of our game.” *screen turning on* “In this game players are sent to a virtual world and their goal is to survive and hunt down the other players, the one who makes it to the end wins. Players are given five lives, weapons, a map, a backpack containing some tools and at last a survivor badge. The map has a blue dot which is you, red dots which are obviously other players and some wild beasts, green dots are spots where you can regenerate yourself. There are some other location marks.......you will get to know about them in your guidebook inside your backpack. It is kind of a storage device where you can store whatever you want to inside it. Just like a storage device it also has a limit to store things; you can upgrade your storage limit by collecting store fragments while exploring the territory. Surviving supplies like food, water, compass, binoculars and various kinds of tools can be found in your backpack. Now, for survivor badge, it’s a triangular coin-like thing which you have to protect until the end because there are two ways a player can eliminate you, first by killing you directly and second by destroying your survivor badge. You can team up with only one person if you want to by joining your survivor badge together but it won’t work if one of them is not wishing to team up. You can donate your life to another teammate by stabbing him\her with a cursed dagger found in one of the forbidden shrines in ‘The City of Graves’.”

“So basically we are held captive just to play a game? Do I look like a fool to you?”

“Easy Mr.Greed, let me finish......This game is different from the games which are out there in present world. The fact is that........THE PERSON WHO DIES IN THE GAME ALSO DIES IN THE REAL WORLD. By the time we found out about this bug, the game was fully completed. After some research our developers found that the bug can be fixed by once completing the game. That is why we had no other choice but to kidnap peoples for completing the game.”

*Laughing* “Woahhh! Okay, Now I get it. You peoples are recording a prank, aren’t you..........Where are the cameras hiding. Hm-hm!”

“Sorry to disappoint you but I am being serious. This is not a prank. Whatever I’ve told you until now is true”

“Don’t fuck around with me Damnit!!! Your mind’s gone insane!!!........What do you think; people’s lives are your play things? I won’t agree to this fucking demand of yours no matter what tricks you try!!!”

“I never asked you to agree. Don’t you remember what I told you earlier?”

*flashback* “I know you will”.....“You have to, cause you don’t have choice here”

“Preparations for you and these kids are being made......you all will be playing the game tomorrow. Until then, get to know each other so that killing each other should bring you pain and sorrow......Well then, See you tomorrow Mr.Greed!” *Leaves the room*

Arrhhhhhhhhh!!!! Damn you asshole!!!! You fucking piece of shit!!!!!!........*panics* what should I do? *looks here and there* Why are you still aiming on me dumbass!!!! Your boss is gone now, Give me some air Damnit!!!! (The armed man is still aimed on shin) For now let’s talk to these kids. Maybe I can get some Intel on this place or that madman. “Hey! What’s your name kid?”

*groans* “na-name?....ahh.....i-its David.” Foreigner?........What did he have to do with it? You can’t involve an outsider into country’s affairs! *headaches* Ouch!! Talking-to-kids plan postponed. For now I need some sleep.

[Next Day]

*thud* *click* *peoples chattering* “......eck the system oper.....on” “Stabilized” *man in black ordering* “Do it before they wake up slowpokes!” *waking up slowly* What’s happening? What are they going to do? Ahh....It’s the game........huh? Wait......THE GAME!!!!

*flash* *Snaps out*

*Unknown Speaker* “Welcome To ‘The Game Of Life And Death’! Please Enter Your Character Name!”

“What the Fuck!!!!”

(the man in black tricked Shin by telling him that they will be playing the game tomorrow and while they were sleeping he transferred them into the game........Now what will our Shin Do? You’ll find it in the 3rd chapter of The Game Of Life And Death )
