It's late at night, the streets are dimly lit by the street lights, no sound can be heard besides a soft rain and footsteps coming from the distance.
A young man is going through an empty alley. This alley is darker than the others in the city, it is rumored that most of the drug dealers do their bussiness here, there were reports of kidnapping in this area aswell. The man is wearing black running shoes, gray sweatpants, a black compressed shirt and black bluetooth headphones over his head. He isn't listening to any music, if he was, someone could try to sneak up on him and attack him from behind, or that's what he thinks.
He has his hands in his pockets, which is pretty ironic considering the fact that he is worried about someone attacking him.
His appearance clearly shows that he works out. His upper body is large, his abs, arms, back and chest are showing through his compressed shirt. His legs are big aswell, it's hard to tell their actual size because his gray sweatpants are oversized.
He has dark gray eyes which are very rare, and dark brown hair with a curtain haircut. Considering his overall looks and his face, he could be called very handsome.
Aside from his appearance and his wear, he is also carrying something that looks like a gym bag in his left hand, considering his physique, it wouldn't be a surprise if he is going home from the gym, although there doesn't seem to be a single drop of sweat on his body, the only drops on his body are waterdrops from the rain, as he is not carrying an umbrella with himself.
The man stops in front of one of the houses in the same empty alley, he pulls out a key out of his right pocket and unlocks the front door.
"Man, it sure was a good idea to shower in the gym." He says as he enters the house, his voice is pretty deep. "I should probably start downloading that update, I am pretty sure it's coming out soon." He says as he locks the front door with an excited tone that almost doesn't fit his appearance and voice.
He turns the lights on and takes off his shoes, he walks into his living room and turns on the lights there aswell, he puts his gym bag on the floor, sits on the couch and checks the time on his phone that he takes out of his left pocket.
"21:55? In that case the update should be available in five minutes if I remember correctly." He says while wondering if he is correct. "Alright, I should probably post about it on my Instagram in the meantime."

This man is no ordinary man, he has just recently celebrated his 18th birthday, he is known around this city for being the strongest guy here, he not only has a terryfying physique, he is also a great fighter. He used to get into fights since he was a little kid, and as he grew older he kept getting better at it. Of course, he is not a terminator, he can lose in a fight, but everyone is scared to fight him one on one. His biggest achievement was defeating a gang in his city in a 1 vs 20 fight. Yes, he defeated 20 guys by himself, and they had weapons too. And this is just one side to his story.
The second side to his story is his Minecraft career, that's right, this man is a PRO Minecraft player. He also streams and plays it competetively and makes a lot of money out of it. Thanks to this, he doesn't have to work a normal job, as he makes much more than an average person already. One more thing that I didn't mention, no one who knows this guy in real life knows that he is a Minecraft streamer, and vice versa. He's trying to keep his identity hidden. The reason for that? Nobody knows.
The question is, why is he living here? In this old and dangerous looking place? And how did he become so strong and famous? That's also something that nobody knows besides him.
"Alright, and post." He says as he finished posting his post on Instagram. He has 357k followers on Instagram which just shows how famous he is. He puts his phone down and heads upstairs into his bedroom.
His bedroom is really clean, there is not much to say about it besides his royal bed and a really expensive looking PC setup. He turns on his PC and waits for it to turn on. Once it turns on he starts downloading the Minecraft update.
His fast wifi downloads the update within seconds, and he quickly starts launching it. "Here it is." He says with an excited tone again. And just when his game launches he passes out, for no reason and out of nowhere, and then he dissapears from his bedroom.
A few minutes later he wakes up, he doesn't open his eyes yet but he can feel the surrounding area. A warm wind is blowing into his direction, he can smell the sea. WAIT, THE SEA?! He thinks to himself as he quickly opens his eyes and stands up as if he just came back from being dea. He looks around and sees a large sea or an ocean surrounding him from all sides, he seems to be on an island made out of dirt and sand that has a single tree on it, there are three more islands nearby him made out of the same materials.
One of them has three trees on it, the second one is way too small and doesn't have anything on it, and the third one, the one that's most distant, it has a small wooden hut on it with a few trees around it. The problem is that the Island seems to be atleast one hundred meters away, not only that but it's also big and very steep, which means that going up into that hut is going to be difficult, or is it?
"Where the hell am I? And how did I get here?" The young man says, this is a completely normal reaction considering the fact that he isn't in his bedroom anymore but on some island in the middle of nowhere.
"Huh? What's this?"
