A soap bubbles.
“What the hell, I'm in a nightmare! The first step to controlling a nightmare is to know that you are in one, logically that we do not have total control over it and only at the beginning we subjugate what is happening; until it becomes fun, or we decide to wake up. That is why only during life we have full control over our decisions, and we are where we are because of our decisions. " I thought this in a moment of inspiration while I was under that darkness and the sound of the systems.
That sound sounded like a CPU fan, I looked everywhere until I saw a tiny little light, and since the sound came from that direction, I headed in that direction.
My surprise was that I came across a desktop computer. The last time I saw one of these was at the museum of computer science. In this dark place the space of the computer was the only visible place, this place was surrounded by darkness.
Since it was discovered how to use nanotechnology and with the invention of the Ra Proxi, desktop computers have become obsolete. Who wants to use a desktop computer when you can work from anywhere with a virtual computer that is part of you.
When looking at that old thing, I remembered my phone, then I made the phone symbol with my hands, maybe someone could help me get out of here, thanks to nano technology, I could summon a phone from my body, ... After a few seconds of waiting my phone did not appear.
“What the hell is wrong with my body, where is my phone?”
Without more to do I decided to turn on the computer, maybe with it, I could communicate with someone.
In front of the computer table a chair appeared, it was strange I did not remember seeing the before, but I preferred not to think about it and sat in front of the monitor.
I press the start button of the CPU, with what I see in the monitor this:
>RESTART.
In front of me the screen of a monitor, all things were in tone of red to white.
"Shit the monitor is broken," I thought.
The operating system was probably Lookout 95 because a red meadow and a white sky could be seen in the background of the monitor
Then a windows open, it looked like the view from a surveillance camera it was at ground level, so all I could see was a few people in uniform at the University, with soft light that came out of their mouths and eyes.
"Wait, this are zombies? Why are they static, doing nothing? .... "
While I was thinking about this and other things, I saw a new message appear on the screen:
> Test Memory: 0.0000001 / 60 Terabytes.
> Self-diagnostic: 28/203 Bones.
> Attempting self repair: 10% (100%) of Power Recovered or less.
> Health check: 10/10 (104).
> Agility check: 1/1 (34).
> Mana Check: 9/9 (104).
> Force check: 1/1 (14).
> Occupation check: None.
> Title check: None.
> Vitality: 5/5 (54).
> Resistance: 4/4 (104).
> Spirit: 9/9 (54).
> Stamina check: 4/4 (54).
> Attack check: 0-1 (50).
> Accumulated Points: 10.
> Durability check: ∞ (1000).

> Level: 3.
Attempting self repair: 10% (100%) of Power Recovered or less, everything that is in parentheses is the original parameter of the system and what is outside is what is available.
In non-technical terms, the automatic repair could only repair or recover 10% of the maximum capacity of the system." The Omnivaiz said.
However, the voice of the Omnivaiz came from everywhere, as if I were inside him.
“Omnivaiz why I am inside you?” I said.
“You are not inside of me; you are inside your philatelic!”
“What?” I said.
“Your skeleton body has been destroyed, your mind and soul has taken refuge in your philatelic!” The Omnivaiz said.
I saw the monitor and realized that was my status before passing out, or what was left of it before I was dismantled.
"Accumulated points that were equal to 10 and Durability check: ∞ (1000)" I read this.
“Durability seemed to have an original duration of 1000 points, but now it's infinite, why would it be infinite? " I thought.
"Ventum Carnificare Atrium! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" I hear, look at the monitor, the I see a wave of energy pass between the neck of the zombies. With what I see the heads of the zombies fell to the ground.
I was stunned to see this and almost immediately his Omnivaiz told him:
“Do you want to use the Latin language dictionary to translate these words Yes or No?
“Yes!" Metal Lich responded, on the screen above all things the following text appeared:
“Ventum carnificare atrium = Wind behead cut" The Omniviaiz Said.
I hear someone else's voice that said:
“Hey, was that Latin?" I hear a child's voice.
“Yes!" Answered a dark voice. Who was probably the person who spoke Latin.
“Can you use Latin to do magic? I thought you would say hocus-pocus as a keyword to use magic" Said the boy.
“…
Yes, to your first question, the reality is that magic is in the strength of words, if we can describe what we want magic to do, in a dead language like Latin, I can summon spells in a way very safe and efficient.
I could also use the hocus-pocus! But I would have to imagine its specific use, but a lot of magic is wasted in it, besides that an accident with it could be disastrous, if it goes out of control or if it is not conducted or magically invented correctly, "said the dark voice.
“ That is great! Then I can do magic too! " The boy said.
Do you have magic knowledge?" The dark voice said.
“Nop! But being able to say the words in Latin, is not that enough?" The boy said.
“No! You have to have a prior knowledge of magic, because if you do not use the right flow of magic the spell can explode, in the future I will try to write a beginner Dummies book, so you understand how ..." The dark voice said.
I stopped paying attention to the conversation that was happening around me, once again my attention returned to this dark world,where the only thing that interrupted the silence was the sound of the systems, I began to reflect on the information that I had just obtained.
“I already have a book for Dummies about magic!" I checked my mind and discovered, that the instructions to perform the Magical Flow diagram was already there, besides that I could use the Latin dictionary that had been installed when I got this book for Dummies.
“This means that I can do magic, but what kind of spell can help me in this situation?" I thought.
“Sphaericorum viribus agri!" I hear.
“Do you want to use the Latin language dictionary to translate these words Yes or No?" The Omnivaiz asked.
“Yes!" I answered, Omnivaiz said:
“Sphaericorum viribus agri = Spherical force field." The Omniviaiz Said.
“A force field, Cool!” I Thought, then I returned to see the monitor to see what was happening outside, in front of me, I saw a very thin young man with the skin covered with yellow scales to what we could call a natural defense, He wore a black uniform and in his hand he held a black cane with a gold coin on top, with vampire wings.
Near Yellow Scales Young Man were another five people, there was: a green fire monster that looked a lot like Inferno could almost be his identical twin; a boy with disturbed hair, he used a black jacket and long bloody red pants; a Chinese girl with black-hair, wearing a traditional red silk blouse with gold edges, with a red miniskirt; behind them were two tall girls, one wore a black clothes body carving with light blue stripes that shone in neon, she had white hair and the other a sleeveless blouse, jean pants and black boots, she had short curly gold hair. However, she caught his eyes, as she had a yellow lens over one eye and a plasma cannon like the one that Alien Hunter have, on her shoulder.
“Brumm brumm!" I heard a chainsaw, behind me.
“What the hell is happening?" I thought.
“It was not that the zombies are blind, why are they running towards us?" The disturbed hair boy said.
“I suppose a lot of them heard the noise from the gate and headed towards us, but I guess they are following the noise from the Chainsaw of Red Lightning!" The Alien Hunter Girl said.
“Chen-Li, American Girl and I will help Red Lightning!" The Alien Hunter Girl said. American Girl hair was white, while Alien Hunter Girl's hair was golden, and the Asian girl, I am sure she must be Chen-Li, her hair was black, They ran to help Red Lightning, American Girl and Alien Hunter carried a long tube as a weapon, while Chen-Li carried a Chines sword as a weapon.
“Hahaha, definitely American Girl should be poor, but why would she have invested so much in her clothes and not in getting herself a weapon?" I thought.
Those people advanced until they reached a few meters from where the emergency ladder was and that was when I saw the back of American Girl. She had stuck to her back a Frisbee of light. This was a philately-like item in the Final Illusion game, where the operator or player could save all their information and life points in this item. But this had its advantages and its disadvantages, the advantage is that you can use it as a throwing sharp weapon as a Chakram, but unlike this last weapon it comes back to you 90% of the time, and the damage you take is reduced from the points this item has, but like philatelic if it is destroyed the player dies. which explains why she is not using it directly as a weapon.

The Alien Hunter Girl looked at the boy and said:
“Sun Goku destroys the ladders where the zombies are climbing in front of Red Lightning and all the other stairs!" She looks like the leader from this group of people.
She looked at Inferno and said:
“Protect Sun Goku and Voldemord, please"
“Why do you want me to destroy all the emergency stairs?" Sun Goku asked to Alien Hunter Girl.
“To prevent more zombies from coming up!" Alien Hunter Girl said.
“I get it!" Sun Goku Said, he jumps on an air duct to be able to aim better, then he said:
“Zaaaá meeén jaaaá!", his aura became visible in a bright blue-white tone, forming a ball of energy in his hands the size of a soccer ball, then a ray of the thickness of the arm of an adult, was fire.
“Vvrrish, boom, Kuh-Crack, creack creak!” The ray crashed into the emergency staircase that the zombies was using to go up to this floor, the blow was so devastating that the structure began to unravel itself.
Red Lightning, dismemberment all the zombies that had managed to climb before the Zamenja strike, leaving a trail celestial blood all over this place.
“Woow a Zamenja!" I said.
“Voldemord please used your Shaercorum virirsbus agri spell and us!” Alien Hunter Girl said. Voldemord was the Yellow Scales Young Man that can use magic.
“Sphaericorum viribus agri!" Voldemord scream, this spell 6 times, he throws the force field on Inferno, Sun Goku, Chen-Li, American Girl, Red Lightning and to Alien Hunter Girl.
“Growl Growl Growl!” Zombies growled, they were to near, as if it was snarling in his ear.
I noticed that Voldemord was nervous and indecisive, he was holding his cane in front of him and said:
“Status mei quod Duplicare"
“Do you want to use the Latin language dictionary to translate these words? Yes or No?" The Omnivaiz said.
“Yes! But I wish, I did not have to listen to this question every time someone says a word in Latin anymore!” I said. The I see a window that said:
“You want to automatically translate any word from Latin to Spanish Yes or No?" On the computer monitor.
I pressed “Y" with what the Omnivaiz translated these words, which said:
“Status mei quod Duplicate = Status my Duplicate"
“Woo a spell to double my status this boy must be a genius to have so many spells at hand" I thought. The I see that Voldemord open his status.
I could not read it from this angle, I regrets not being able to take a picture of him. Right in the monitor appeared an option that said:
“Do you want to take a photo YES or NO?"
I pressed Y, Then I hears:
“Click, this photo will be saved in My Pictures folders." The Omniviaiz said.
“Woo, later I have to check the system options!" I thought.
I kept looking at Voldemord to know what he was planning to do with the zombies that were heading towards him.
I see that Voldemord removed his status from in front of him, with a wave of his hands, he threw his cane into the air, he put his hands to his mouth and his hands began to shine, and he said:
“Eiudem est transmure apud gloriabitur securis!"
“Eiudem est transmure apud gloriabitur securis = Equal the transmutar close power the axe!" The Omnivaiz translated automatically.
With what I see that the cane began to shine in a golden light, the figure of a crown that was on the sides of the coin disappeared and was replaced with the face of Voldemord the wings of bat became two sheets of metal with the looked like a battle ax rather than a cane, with what he saw Voldemord's nervous and his fear began to disappear from his face.
I see that Voldemord was bathed in sweat, he held up that axe as if it were a baseball bat, I see that the zombie run towards him, while he raised that axe as if preparing to cut a piece of wood, I felt that my heart was beating fast, this scared me, because I did not have a heart. As if the hand of death were near me, I felt helpless for not being able to move, I see that a foot passed over my head, coming from my back, this gigantic being, he must be the zombie that was moving towards the direction of Voldemord, him with all his strength hit the head of the zombie.
“Crack ..... Aaaah!" The zombie's head sounded, during a scream from Voldemord. He transform all that fear and uncertainty into strength. I felt that if I had a body, I would get up to fight.
I decided to activate force shield, to avoid the Ax from Voldemord, in case he failed since I was too close to his fight, so I said:
“Sphaericorum viribus agri"
“Aah" I Moaned.
“You have spent 3 pts of mana, 2 pts of spirit, 1 pts of stamina and 1 of vitality, after using any spell 15 times, your spell goin to go up one level!" the Omnivaiz told me.
I saw a small dome of energy rise up on me, that has a duration of 100 points, while he thought:
“Hell, why did this spell hurt me!" When I see Voldemord cast more than 6 spells. I never see Voldemord suffer with the spells.
However, it is necessary for me to use a force field since it would be a disgrace for me to be struck by Voldemord accidentally.
Now that I fill more secure, my next goal was to change the way I see things from vertical to horizontal, all the time since I turned on the monitor and had to interpret what I see. As if my head were lying on a bed.
“Blam!" I hear a dry noise, my vision began to spin without control.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaah, Damn what's going on" I shout.
“ I want to have a function to measure, maintain or change the orientation in space such as the gyroscope device, although my view of the world is vertical or horizontal or worst case spinning around me, I can always focus my eyes where I need it” I said in my dark world.
“You want to activate the gyroscope function to use the sphere of the shield as a wheel keeping you always oriented towards where you can see the road correctly, YES or NO!" The Omnivaiz said.
“Yes!" I Shout, the image on the monitor stopped spinning, the I could see the battlefield. There were no more zombies left, but he could only see 7 figure half, covered by a spherical field that had a blue substance that may be the blood of the zombies.
I felt that I should be happy because there are no more zombies, but my bubble keeps moving away from them.
It was at this moment when my vision see that my bubble had left the roof and began to fall into the void.
Few seconds later I found myself in front of a window, then I saw my reflection against it, my reflection was a silver skull with red eyes, surrounded by a semi transparent blue bubble that looked at me and for some reason, I was sure that it was me.
“Shit! I need a spell that allows me to survive the fall. Damn! Think, think " I Shout. I began to review all the spells I hears from Voldemord:
"..
Ventum carnificare atrium = Wind behead cut: Decapitating wind wave
Sphaericorum viribus agri = Spherical force field: Force field
Status mei quod Duplicate = Status my Duplicate: In other words, it doubles the power of all my status
Eiudem est transmure apud gloriabitur securis = Equal the transmutar close power the axe: In other words, transmute this item into a powerful battle ax
..”
I have to transmute my head to something that can fly or fall slowly, but if I could check San Google at the speed of light, maybe I would have an opportunity.
“You want to connect to Timynet and navigate in San Google YES or NO?"
“Yes, make a copy of all relevant or not relevant global information in the background that you can access, in the background!...I have a better idea, I'm going to convert my weight to a feather, so I'll fall more slowly!” I said.
"Do I always download information from Timynet?! My Omnivaiz said.
"Yes!" I said. Who knows if this information will continue to be available later.
...
I entered the dictionary in Latin and write:
“Disengage like a feather!"
“Pluma quasi Desender" The Dictionary wrote back. With this I had the magic words ready
I looked again at book for Dummies in my mind and see that the magic flow diagram was very similar to the diagram for programming of computer application, but with the defect that I had to imagine the effect of how the magic was performed.
The I started to imagine what would happen when the wind touched the bubble of his force field, I imagine what would happen the same thing that happens with a soap bubble when Gently touch the floor and they burst, which means that his force field would touch the ground gently and dissolve. With what I said:
“Pluma quasi Desender....Aah!" I Moaned.
“You has spent 3 pts of mana, 2 pts of spirit, 1 pts of stamina and 1 of vitality ...... Ding Ding Ding, error error you used the wrong spell with the wrong image" The Omnivaiz told him.
“Boom ... aaaaaah"The spell and the force field exploded, then I was expelled in side a window of the university.
“Shit!" I said, then I remember what Voldemort said:
“...if you do not use the right flow of magic the spell can explode!”
“That's what this meant!” I said.
“Crack Crack!" The window sound simultaneously while I cross and enter a classroom on the third floor.
