Altera Corp decided to test it's new game, and people from all over the world would be testers. They would be hooked up into pods and transported into the world of Altera. There they would live their lives however they wanted, it would only end once the countdown timer ran out, or they died. But while countless time passed inside, only a day went by on Earth. When five of the strongest beings in Altera go back to living their lives on Earth, will they be able to be normal? And is Altera really just a game? Hey there it's the author. When you're reading this story I would like you to be aware of a few things. First, the fantasy elements will not come into the story until later on. And second, there is no gaurantee that the story will be finished. I will try to keep it going, and hopefully I can, but life sometimes gets in the way. And by the time I get back to it I usually will have lost the spark that kept it going. Still, I will work to make sure that doesn't happen. Thank you for taking the time to read this.                                                                                                                                                                       -Shrilldemon
