“dialog”
‘thoughts’
I woke up, terrified that I had slept through my alarm. I quickly opened my eyes.
‘Where am I’ I thought. I stood facing an endless view of white. Looking around I noticed there was no sky, no ground, and no distant horizon in sight. Even my sixth sense was not “seeing” anything. In fact it “saw” nothing. My sixth sense had never failed me like this before. I had always been able to sense objects and people, even the air around me ever since I was young. I took a step forward. My foot landed on hard ground. ‘Hmm I see so there is a ground it’s just impossible to see. ‘At least it’s there though’. I noticed that there was no shadow beneath me and looked around wondering where the light that let me see was. I looked around again. “I'm obviously still dreaming”. I closed my eyes again determined to wake up.
“Hehehe that’s hilarious” I heard someone cackle behind me. I jumped for a second, opening my eyes. Didn’t I just look around there? And I should have been able to sense him. I turned to the sound of someone's laughter. “It was your face. It looked like you were thinking what the fuck is this place” the voice continued. As I turned I looked at this new figure. He was an old man, maybe in his early seventies. He was bald but his white mustache flowed down either side of his mouth, with the mouth itself curled into a huge grin. He wasn't bulging with muscle. He was leaner, with his body looking perfectly tuned for what he did with it. Although he was ancient in appearance I shivered in his presence. He was not someone who I would ever try to fight with.
I frowned at him laughing at me but I didn’t say anything because of the frightening feeling he gave off. “So” I thought “looks like some sort of martial arts master, but his personality is really weird; it just doesn’t match his looks. Whatever, let’s just see how this dream progresses.”
“So what is this place” I asked. It was a dream but it was a really during one. Maybe if I started a conversation with this guy I could make it a little better
“Well you're in limbo kid” he answered as if this was some sort of obvious answer. At this I was confused. I had once heard that dreams were a way for your brain to sort out what you had done during the day. I know my day was empty and boring but it was not this boring. “So why am I here?”
Again acting like this was all so obvious he answered “well it’s probably because I called you here” he rolled his eyes. I was really starting to hate him. Suddenly he broke into a smile “I’m just joking with you, obviously you have no idea what is going on right now. I’m the god of the game and I’m here to invite you to the game”

Suddenly a blue box sprung up in front of me. I jumped back in surprise. “Oh my god that surprised me” I said. My hands were shaking a little because adrenalin had suddenly shot through my body. Still a little wary from the surprise I looked at what had appeared in front of me

‘Weird name I thought I was already a part of real life’.
Underneath there were two buttons allowing me to choose which path I want? ‘Well it’s just a dream’ I thought ‘no matter how weird it is how bad could it get?’ “Sure” I said pressing the button that confirmed my decision.
He smiled at my choice. “all right then I have a lot of people to get to tonight so ill quickly make some stats for you based off what sort of fitness and intelligence you have right now”. His head turned slightly to the left as if seeing something invisible to me. He swiped a finger as if scrolling through an invisible window on an invisible tablet. Suddenly he stopped moving that finger. “Wow never seen that before” he smiled. Looking at me he spoke “well kid looks like you're going to be starting with a race that no one has ever started with. It would be no fun to explain it all to you but I guess you can just discover things by yourself.” He went back to his air button pressing.” wow other than that you're pretty normal” he commented. “Well have fun with it, but it’s time to wake up now if you don’t want to miss your bus.” his laughter faded out like some dramatic scene in a movie. I slowly felt my eyes getting heavy and I finally closed them.
I woke up, terrified that I had slept through my alarm. I quickly opened my eyes.
