**Flashback**
**Umbriel**
**Dabih**
Age: 26
Bruce: Come out of your room!
Dabih is playing games.
Dabih: Yeah, I’m coming dad. (I was almost finished too.)
Dabih walks out of his room. Greeting his dad.
Dabih: Hey dad.
Bruce: I told you. If you’re going to stay here you need to find a job.
Dabih: I’ve been looking, don’t worry.
Bruce: We’re having breakfast, join us.
Dabih: Ahhh, but I….
Bruce with a stern face.
Bruce: I wasn’t asking. Come say hi to your stepdad.
Dabih: Alright, I’m coming.
Dabih closes his door and goes downstairs…
TJ: Good Morning sleepy head.
Dabih: Good morning.
TJ moves around the kitchen putting food where Dabih and his Dad are sitting, then comes to the table and eats.
TJ: Soooo. Any news about a job?
Dabih: I have an interview today actually.
TJ: What’s it for?
Dabih: Sanitary Engineering.
TJ chuckles.
Bruce: Aye. A job is a job.
Dabih (discouraged): Yeah...
As breakfast goes by, Dabih heads out for his job interview.
**At The Interview**
Umbriel’s Waste Management
Jay: So how hard will you work for us?
Dabih: I will put in the work, don’t worry.
Jay: Have you ever been in this line of work?
Dabih: I take the trash out every Monday.
Jay: Haha, that’s a good one.
Dabih smirks.
Jay: You think you can handle the snow?
Dabih: I’ve lived here all my life. I can handle it.
Jay: Well, you have a great resume. How soon can you start?
Dabih (smiles): I can start today!
Jay: Haha, well come in tomorrow, you got the job.
Dabih (excited): Thanks! I’ll be here, at 8 am sharp!
Jay: Alright, starting today, you’re on a probationary period for a month.
Dabih: Ok!
Dabih and Jay shake hands and Dabih walks out, head held high. Making it home.
Dabih (happy): Dad! I got the job.
Bruce (proud): That's great son! No more freeloading!
Dabih: Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.
Dabih walks up to his room and starts his game.
Dabih: A few hours of gaming and I’m good.
As he plays the game the days go by until the next morning. At the job, Dabih goes through all the training and prepping for the job. Two weeks go by, and he’s riding the trucks on the road.
Dabih: Easy life. Get trash, dump it.
The person riding in the back with Dabih.
Nick: Shut up. Just stay quiet and let’s work.
Dabih: (Asshole.)
As the trash day goes by, Dabih is back home. He goes to lie in bed.
Dabih (relieved): Finally.
Bruce: Tough day, huh?
Dabih: Yeah, can you close my door?
Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.
Bruce: Sure.
Bruce leaves the room, closing the door. Dabih hops up and gets back on the game.
Dabih: I wish I could just quit. Work isn’t for me.
Logging into the Play-Box.
**Welcome**
Username: Day-Maker
Dabih: Aww, I’m back.
**Message**
From: Koolwhip
Hop online motherfucker
Dabih: *sighs* This guy.
Dabih joins his friends and plays all night while yelling.
Koolwhip: If you get offline, you’re a bitch.
Dabih: I got work in the morning though.
Koolwhip: One more game.
Dabih: Alright, Just one more.
They play for 3 more hours into the morning.
Dabih: Oh shit! I gotta go to work.
Koolwhip: Peace.
Dabih cuts off the game and drives fast to work. Finally made it there two minutes late.
Jay: Late, huh? You’re fired.
Dabih: What?! It was only two minutes!
Jay: Exactly, two minutes not on time. Do you realize you’re on a probationary period? You couldn’t have been late once this whole month. Go home. Dabih under his breath.
Dabih: Fuck this.
Dabih drives back home, frustrated. Home again. He walks in and slams the door.
Bruce: What happened?
Dabih: I got fired.
Bruce covers his face with his hand.
Bruce: Well, time to find another job.
Dabih: Nah, I won’t.
Bruce: You what?
Dabih storms off walking upstairs. Bruce goes to yell.
Bruce: Da….
TJ stops him.
TJ: Let him cool off first.
Dabih gets to his room and slams his door. Still in his uniform, he turned on the game, another message from Koolwhip.
Dabih: …
**Message**
From: Koolwhip
Hit me up when u home
Dabih: Agh. Of course, he says this. Might as well message him.
The two-game all night, playing ATG and Faragon, all day and night, through three days. Dabih still hasn't taken his garbage uniform off yet.
Dabih: I gotta use the bathroom again.
Koolwhip: Ight.
Dabih goes to the bathroom, uses it, and after washing his hands looks in the mirror.
Dabih: I wanna play games all day, no bathroom breaks.
Getting back to the game. Dabih notices a special event going on for a limited time.
**Twenty-Six Hour Event**
Game: Faragon
Quadruple The Exp!
Koolwhip (hyped): We’re gaming all day! No stops!
Dabih (excited): Yep!
As thirteen hours go by, they game hard.
Dabih (irate): Help me on the left!
Koolwhip (angry): I’m heading over there bitch! Stop Yelling!
Dabih (annoyed): I would stop yelling if you helped me!
Koolwhip (angry): You’re making my blood pressure rise!
Dabih: If it rises, that's your fault!
Koolwhip (confused): Huh?! How?!
Dabih: Plus you got me fired anyway, you can take some yelling.
Koolwhip: If you got fired, that’s your fault.
Dabih (mad): You were the reason I was late!
Koolwhip (upset): No one told you to keep playing!
Dabih (enraged): Bitch, you did!
YungFlee: Can you two stop yelling?
Dabih and Koolwhip: Stay outta this!
**Gameover**
Results: Fxcking Losers.
Dabih: Yep, we lost.
Koolwhip: Cause of all your yelling.
Dabih: If you can’t handle some yelling….
Koolwhip: What did you say? Doesn’t matter, I’m better than you anyway.
Dabih: What? Game recognizes game, and you look unfamiliar!! I’m at the top of the leaderboard, as always!
Koolwhip: Tck. This one game.
Dabih: Whatever, I have to pee. I’ll be right back.
Koolwhip: Wait, Day! Look at this.
**Thirteen Hours Remaining**
Octuple The Exp!
For The Final Hours!
Dabih: Oh god.
Koolwhip: Get back on the controller, I’m starting the game.
Dabih: Alright, I’m here.
They play for eight more hours, while Dabih is itching to go to the bathroom.
Dabih: I gotta go!
Koolwhip: We’re in the middle of a game! We need you.
Dabih: Oh, so you do need me?
Koolwhip: Shut up.
**Five Hours Remaining**
Decuple The Exp!
The Final Hours!
Dabih: C’mon. I can hold it for five more hours.
Koolwhip: Let’s go again. The grind doesn’t stop!
More hours go by, then they are left with the final two hours…
Dabih (pain): Ahh! Shit!
Koolwhip: You ok?
Dabih: I don’t know.
Dabih felt his lower stomach.
Dabih: I got a huge pain in my stomach.
Koolwhip: Probably just ate something bad.
Dabih: Yeah, probably. I’m going to get some water.
As Dabih gets up, he falls over.
Koolwhip (concerned): What was that loud thump? You ok?? Day-Maker?!
Dabih slowly opened his eyes, and he was in front of a man sitting on a throne. But he can’t make out what he looks like.
M: Hello.
Dabih: What happened….
M: You died.
Dabih (freaks out): What? How?
M: Your bladder burst. Killing you. But, I can help you with that. Do you want power?
Dabih: A power? What would it be?
M moving his hands.
M: Anything you desire.
Dabih: Hmmm, I just want to play games all day. No problems. How about not having to go to the bathroom?
M: I can make that work. Here, also take this. It’s an egg that will hatch into your pure self.
The egg floats over to Dabih.
Dabih (gazes): My pure self...
Koolwhip: Day-Maker! Day-Maker!
M: Better get out of here, your friend is calling for you.
Dabih wakes up, stomach completely fine.
Koolwhip: Day-Maker! We have an hour left!
Dabih gets up and puts the headset on.
Dabih: Calm down, I heard you yelling from the other room.
Koolwhip: Fuck you. Where were you?
Dabih looked at his egg. His egg is all white, with grey spots.
Dabih: (All white.) I was just using the bathroom, I’m back now.
Koolwhip: Let’s play!
They continue playing, getting all the exp they could get!
**End of Flashback**
Dabih coughing up some blood.
Dabih (smiles): I was gaming til Ogma came. KuHaHa.
Draco in the sky. Aiming two fingers at Dabih.
Draco: **Mysterious Light**
Concentrating on his fingers, they begin emitting blinding light, then using both fingers to fire turrets of deadly light projectiles causing explosions on everything they hit!! It's raining down on Dabih!! Explosions covering a wide area!!
Dabih (screeching): GGRRH!!!
Striking down, killing him! Nino kills over, Apocalypse starts devouring it!
Draco: Alright, where are my friends?
Draco floats down, landing, he is overcome with light surrounding his body and he lets out a loud yell!! Apocalypse grows bigger! Draco has pain shooting through his body!
Draco: AHHHHH!
He starts glowing! Then the light disappears. Draco is left with an uneasy feeling.
Draco: I guess this is what Vega felt. So I’m on the next tier too.
**Draco**
Stellar: K9
Draco: Now, for my friends.
Lightning comes striking down from the east.
Draco: Wrath.
**Seconds Before The Lightning**
(At Snow Fountain: Courant d'Eau.)
Tupi: I lived a decent life. End me.
Wrath: Soooon….
Wrath begins to fire off, then suddenly blinding light goes off in the sky.
Wrath with an understanding nod.
Wrath: Draco. He must’ve finished. I need to finish this too.
Wrath raises his arm as lightning circles him.
Wrath: **King’s Wrath**
A surge of dreadful blue lightning surrounds him, then shoots into the sky, then comes down fast! Which shakes the surrounding environment and destroys everything within the vicinity! Slamming Tupi, over and over again!!!
Austin(Tupi’s Bear) kills over, signaling he's dead.
Wrath’s grin is crazy scary, as he continues striking Tupi down!!
Wrath: Yahaha, just to be sure! See ya, cue ball!!
Wrath continues striking down, then lightning wraps around Wrath!! Deimos grows bigger! Then the lightning disappears. Wrath has an uneasy feeling.
Wrath: Geez, that’s the feeling? I felt more pain from that than from the actual fight. So we’re all on the same tier. Great!
**Wrath**
Stellar: K9
Wrath: Next is finding them.
*Draco’s Location*
Draco: That lightning. So Wrath is over there. I should head to Wrath. Then we’ll find Vega.
They both start to walk towards each other, then suddenly, orange flames erupt in the sky!!
Draco and Wrath: Orange Flames!? Vega!?
Draco: Orange Flames? Vega!? *looking up* It stopped snowing… He reverted the weather. Wait, is that what it could be short for… *shakes head* I'm going to Vega!
???: (I’m right behind you.)
[Battles Conclude…!!
...But, Orange Flames?!]
