I stood in front of the game store ready and excited to buy a copy of Eclipse Online. It has been six months since the initial release of the game, and the internet was flooded with a ton of different post talking about the different aspect of the game, things that couldn't be compared to other VRMMORPG. The only downside was that the game needed a new game console, meaning that anyone who wanted the game needs to be a whole new console, but even then, it didn't deter millions from going out to buy a copy of the game. That what brought me here today, there is a sale that brought the price down just enough for it to be in my price range.
'five minutes' I thought to myself checking my watch
The store wasn't open yet, but considering the fact the line went all the way around the store I would be closed until fully prepared as well. Lucky I had brought all the necessary things with me and camped out in front of the store so it only behind a few people.
'three minutes'
I can already feel my heart beat faster as I put all my things down, there was no way I'm going to risk not getting a copy just because I was worried about a cooler and chair.

'two minutes'
I saw an employee start walking through the door and start taking out his keys.
'one minute'
I heard a beep from the door, and then it came. Everyone started rushing in without any concern for other's safety, but I was prepared for this too. I pushed the person behind me when I felt man him start getting to close causing me to turn around and pushed him back. This action caused him to trip and tumble backward alongside with a bunch of folks behind him. Usually, this action would have put in a lace where I could get in trouble, but in case I just smiled and ran inside the store.
'this copy is basically in my hands already' I thought
I went through the store reaching the back of the store where all the VR equipment was located and left to the cash register. Along the way, I saw the man whom I had pushed down earlier glare in my direction, so I did the first thing my instinct told me to, run. I pass by one of the employees and stop to talk to them.
"I need help, that man over there is trying to take my VR system by force because I grabbed it first," I told her
When she turned her head and saw that man running after me, I swore I saw her eyes light on fire.
"You go ahead, ill handle him," She said puffing out her chest and going to the man chasing me
Once she stopped him by tackling to the ground, I threw him a face that spelled utter victory which pissed him off even more. I left walking in a victory stride over to the cash register to pay.
