Chapter 2: God speaks and perverts peek

Utter silence filled the massive room for moments before cries out outrage, grief, and confusion filled the area. Some demanded to know where they are, while the more geeky ones attempted to 'log out' in various ways to little success, while elsewhere children cried and screamed for their parents.

I couldn’t help but grind my teeth in frustration at all the noise that was completely pointless, half tempted to yell at the top of my lungs for them all to shut the hell up, Ive never been stuck in such a crowd before, usually only surrounded by scientists or the solitude of my own room. Sighing in withdrawal towards the noise that seemed as if it might go on for several minutes now, I turned to look for those who were calmer in hopes for 'allies' as I felt such people would be useful in this situation. 

Emo punk, no. Wanna be gangster, no. ...Is that a clown? Definitely no. I sighed in frustration at the complete lack of useful people, I mean really, a clown? Why the fuck is a clown here? Nobody even likes clowns! I slap myself across the face to keep that line of thought from continuing. 

 ~No Jack, ignore the clown, there's more important things to focus on~ I thought before continuing my search. Business man, no. Highschool 'cool kid', no. A.. fireman? Better than the clown but no. Glancing through an opening in the crowd I spot someone rather.. Odd. 

A young woman with a reasonable bust size, and raven black hair, whose ethnicity appeared to be perhaps purely japanese and appears to have just came from.. Kendo practice? So I assume from the wooden sword hanging from her side. I spot another person, a middle aged balding male reach towards her behind only to find the woman swiftly slamming her hand down at the pommel of the wooden sword, sending the other side up and into the mans crotch. 

I stand somewhat shocked by the sight, unable to not give the man a tad of my sympathy as I am sure any male watching would, even if he was a dirty lecher. The woman stares down at the man as he lays on the ground, holding his family jewels with an expression of absolute suffering on his face. Speaking only one word "Trash",  she spoke in Japanese, as I could thankfully understand from the language comprehension update on the machine in my mind. before turning and walking several meters away from the man, as if to not be around his disgusting figure. 

I consider the woman, composed, disciplined, and seemingly skilled. 'Better than the clown' I think before running up to the lady, prepared for my amazing innocent child act I reach out and pull on the hem of her skirt. The woman turns to glare at me as I will myself to cry with the assistance of the computer in my brain. "O-Onee-chan, I-Im scared.." I spoke, shaking lightly in 'fear', throwing away all of my male pride on a whim in hopes to get what I want. She stares at me with her eyes slightly wider than usual, before reaching out to pat my head and speaking "Its fine... Just stay by my side." Her cheeks showing a slight tint of red. 

I stare up at her, before putting out my best 'I'm scared but Ill be brave' smile, "Mkay Onee-chan!" I say, unable to help but think ~Uwaaahh, is this a confession? Maybe she is a pedo.~ I resist the urge to laugh at my own little joke as I stick close to the woman, while things finally decide to settle down and everyone notices the floating robed figure in the sky. 

"Uwaaah, finally. I was getting sad at being ignored y'know~" The robed god spoke in their odd two pitched voice, the smile on the mask twisting into a frown. "I mean, here I am about to grant you the chance to gain power beyond your wildest dreams, and here you are acting like dumn asses, Im lookin at you clown" I quickly realized that this god isnt only an idiot, but in fact perhaps the rare and mysterious bi-polar idiot. 

"Now then, since I have all of your attention let us continue! The world as you know it will soon be twisted from what it once was, and will gain something similar to your 'game mechanics' Stat screens, abilities, magic, and more to come as I produce 'updates' to the 'system' " I know that she is lying and it would in fact be the universe which would likely produce the updates, but the rest appear to be buying it, not that I blame them. 

 " Now I know what you might be thinking~ Why are we here? Well lets just think of it as a lottery! You have all been randomly selected to participate in the 'Beta stages' of the new world! Here you may create a 'new' you, Become some magical race, train your stat's, and many more fun activities for your stay here!" God yelled with much the same enthusiasm of a child with a new toy, as people began to mumble among themselves, oddly enough none of them demanding that this might be a reality tv show or the like, instead speaking with excitement and confusion, perhaps it was because god spoke with an authority that demanded belief, as well as the divine aura that they emitted.

"Now then, you will all spend the duration of a week here, doing whatever you like with the new world system in effect, you may train to become stronger, to learn some form of magic, or even sit around and be lazy bums! Its really up to you to do what you like once you finish creating the new you." Gods mask switched back to a friendly smile as they continued. 

 "Now, Im anxious to get the show on the road and see what you all decide to do!" God snapped their fingers, as doors upon doors filled the walls of the Colosseum like room, each being labeled a separate number up to 5000. " Simply go to your assigned rooms and begin remaking yourself and the system will take you from that!" Before anyone had a chance to question which room we should go to a blue box appeared before mine, and I assumed everyone's vision. 

Room number #2593

While some looked in confusion and fear at their own blue box, others looked at it in ecstasy, though when I looked back towards God they were already gone. Turning, I looked up at my new 'Onee-chan' and spoke with a sad tone, "W-we have to split up...?" Forcing tears to begin forming in my eyes. 

She looked down at me before reaching down to give me a hug, though her face still appeared calm and almost emotionless "Don’t worry, we can meet back up and be friends." She spoke as yet another blue screen appeared before my vision.  

Friend Request from Haruka Tsumo, Accept?Yes I No

Obviously I quickly pressed yes as it seems a message appeared before her, telling her of my acceptance. She hugged me in a protective manner once more before I turned to run off, waving as I move through the crowd. As I searched for my door, looking every which way I run into the rather tall wannabe gangster from earlier, who immediately looks down on me with a scowl. "Hey, watch it you little brat" He speaks, with what I assume to be a menacing tone. 

I bring my hands up to my cheeks and make a face of mock surprise, "Uwaaahhh, It’s a talking pile of disgusting shit, Ive never seen one of those before~" I speak as I notice his face go red in anger 

What the fuck did you just say you little-" Before he could finish his sentence I took a page from Onee-chans book, and swiftly lifting my foot to send it into the punks jewels, "Ewww, I got shit on my shoe~" I taunted as he fell to his knees, clutching his privates allowing me to lash out at with my foot once more, but this time into his throat, Unable to help myself from letting out a quiet giggle as the man lays on the ground and I continue my search for my room. Relieved from the pent up stress of having to act like a little brat to get what I wanted. 

Soon enough after continuing through the crowd I finally found the door marked as 2593, with a slight skip I walk through the door, glad to be out of the crowd which really wasn’t my scene.
