Just like every other day Jackson had since graduating high-school: he woke up, rolled out of bed onto his feet, and stumbled over to the bathroom.
Now in the room he locked himself for his morning routine, he relieved himself, made coffee, and brushed his teeth. If asked why he kept the coffee maker in the bathroom, he would probably blame it on his sister, who had both put it there in the first place, and failed to bring it with her upon moving out.
His coffee dranken, his bladder depressurized, and his teeth brushed: he sat down at his computer.
After turning on his monitor, he instantly noticed the thing out of place on his desktop. It was labeled XXX WARS and had a woman with cartoonishly large breasts as an icon.
He hadn't downloaded it, obviously, and he seriously doubted his parents had snuck on to his computer to download a porn game. The only logical conclusion then, was that his computer probably got infected with some malware or other.
Thinking that whatever virus it could potentially give him was probably the same one that had put it there in the first place: he opened it with only a moment's hesitation. Instead of bringing up the implied porn game, his computer fans started to whir as it opened up firefox, and followed a link.

What appeared to be a pre modern internet website opened up, the page simply plain text. At the top of the page read "Universe Interface Version 5.34. Uptime: 3 Seconds"
He stopped in confusion for a second, before starting to scroll down the page. Hopefully, he'd find out exactly why a link to it had appeared on his desktop, and what the hell the website was anyways.

After thirty minutes of sorting through the page, I had some answers. The key word in that sentence was 'some'. I now knew what the website was, however improbable it seemed.
The website was, in essence, a world editor. Though it seemed to contain an incomprehensibly large chunk of space including other planets, the page seemed to be dedicated largely to Earth.
On the home page I found three links, labeled: "universal mechanics", "universe" and "planet 03 (Earth)"
I had to figure out what the hell was happening, so I followed the link, zoomed in on a globe to pinpoint my position in space, and selected "spawn item". A prompt showed up asking for an item description or name. Thinking for a second, I decided to keep it simple, so I wrote: "chunk of iron the size of one cubic foot" in the description, and hit submit.
Let's just say a loud thump and the appearance of roughly 500 pounds of iron were the least of my troubles at that moment.
As I took a second to lay back in my chair, my mind was awash with the implications both in the existence of the seeming key to the universe, and the fact that I now had access to it.
