Volume One Chapter 001: The Established Prologue

oOo

The current date is Monday 10th June, 2019. The exact approximate time line is 7:59 AM within the early to mid morning. Just a minute before the alarm clock, set upon my own smartphone, then immediately began to go off.

As sunlight could be seen peaking through the slight opened gaps of my own bedroom curtained windows, and then basking the surface of my own sleeping face within light radiant sunshine warmth.

So when

It was just like any other day of the week, as sunlight could steadily be seen slightly peaking through the opened gaps of his bedroom curtained windows.

So when the digital alarm clock, located right next to his bed, had struck eight o'clock. Dead on centre. It then steadily rung.

Its constant bell ringing, caused Aaron Lee to begrudgingly wake up, growling like a mindless zombie.

"Grrr..."

Aaron Lee wakes up. Annoyingly, he slams his left hand on the snooze button, shutting the damn old alarm clock up. The loud ringing noise stops.

As Aaron Lee continues to burrow himself deeper into the warmth, comfort of his soft bed sheets.

Minutes gone by, as his drowsiness dissipates, his urge to fall back asleep, slowly dwindling.

Now leaving him with no other choice, but to get up.

Aaron Lee rubbed his eyes. The remainder of tiredness fades away, his eyes quickly adapting to his surroundings, as he turned to face the window.

Fresh morning breeze blew against his face.

As he gazed out at the morning horizon, from his bedroom window; it's vivid rays of light extended over the daybreak sky.

He got out from his bed, and slowly but gradually, made his way to the bathroom, to take his morning piss.

With that being said, Aaron Lee yawns, instinctively raising his hands, and stretching his arms out, not fully awake yet. As he looks at himself, reflected in the mirror.

You could see a scrawny looking boy, with light pale skin boy, and messy black hair. Its hazel nut brown eyes, still half asleep, slightly raised, gazing right back at him.

Then he continues to brush his teeth, rinse his mouth, and wash the face.

Aaron Lee dryly walks down the stairs, knowing that he has to spend another day, out of that hell hole he calls school.

Unexpectedly, he saw some left over pudding, lying beside the kitchen counter. He then grabs it for his breakfast.

From the side, with an angry look on its face, Aaron Lee could hear his own little brother yelling at him.

It was starting to get a bit annoying. Aaron smirks, seeing the sight of his little brother, making a scene, and a fool of himself. That it was almost quite hilarious.

The little brother's face starts to turn red, as he shouts at Aaron, yelling. "Hey! That is my pudding! I didn't get a chance to finish it..."

But Aaron turns a blind eye, as he laughed, scuffled at his own brother's misery.

This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

Aaron retaunted, "You snooze you lose squirt."

His little brother wasn't taking it, as he yelled from the top of his lungs. "Mom! Aaron STOLE MY PUDDING!"

Aaron immediately lost his smile, turning it into a slight frown. Nevertheless, he said. " See it if I care... tattletale."

After which Aaron hurried up, pack his things, and left. He does not want to hear his mother nagging, lecturing him. After all, at the end of the day, it is still just a pudding.

His little brother Davis is the apple of his parent's eyes. Davis is very smart, semi athletic, and easy going.

Whilst, Aaron his a lazy bum, a good for nothing Otaku, but still gets above average grades. And Aaron only has one friend, named Sammy, he made since elementary school.

Aaron gets onto his skateboard, and rides off to school. When he gets to school, he was just about to enter, when someone runs into him and pushed him to the side.

It was Jonah Valentine. The local school team's basket ball captain, and the runner up of this year's youth fastest runner title, under the age of 18.

Aaron cursed under his breath, "Asshole...", but he was still careful, controlling his volume, not making himself heard.

After which, Aaron then heads off into class, but he was quite early.

While he was waiting for class to start, Aaron got bored, so he started to read the naruto manga on his phone. This is his third time reading it, and he never gets tired of it.

A few minutes later, his teacher walks in, as he switch off his phone, and put it away. So the class now begins.

After several classes was over. It is about time for lunch, as he left the classroom to meets his best friend Sam in the sxhool's Cafeteria.

Sam is a tall person, a head length taller than Aaron. He is a bit lanky, with very short slick black hair, and brown almond eyes. He is also standing with another person that Aaron does not know.

The boy was a bit taller than Aaron, by a few inches. His hair is naturally black, dyed blonde at the top. Seemingly brown eyes like the rest of us.

Sam called over to Aaron, simultaneously waving his hand, to get his attention. "Yo, Aaron. This here is Kevin he just moved here from California."

Aaron gave a quizzical look, as he said, "Why would you want to come here to England in the UK."

Kevin chuckled a bit, before he said. "My Dad got transferred here for his job. So my family all moved here. Its just me and my Dad by the way. It's nice to meet you."

Sam walks over, hanging from behind, as he gave Aaron a good pat on the back. Excitedly, he said. "Hey, Aaron. Kevin here is also a Naruto fan just like the both of us, that is how we started talking to each other. By coincidence, we both got invited to play this awesome new game, called Shinobi Verse Online, that is still yet in its beta testing. Fortunately, I got handed a spare activation key, with my account. So I guess you can start playing it with us. The open beta server will start soon, it launches in 8 hours at 9PM today. "

Aaron was quite confused, since he has never heard such of such game before. But nevertheless, he was still quite interested. " Shinobi Verse Online?"

Sam spoke with passion, excitment filled his eyes. "Yeah, some unknown company made this mobile game. You need an activation key to download the game. I will send it over later so you could join. As of now, you can create your own ninja avatar, customise the character to suit your taste. Also, every starter player gets a chance to spin the wheel and recieved a mystery prize."

Kevin intervened, and cuts off Sam. As he said." I spun the wheel and got the Moon Revolving Eye."

Sam's eye is then reignited, burning with energy, instead of passion it is jealously. He screamed. "Dude's a lucky bastard, he spun the wheel, and immediately gets a Kekkei genkai. Whilst, I only got a ninja hound. You should download the game now while you still have the chance. Also you should check out ninja. It is a Frost Eyed Husky, and it's name is Kori-Jogi. My in game character name is Hideo Uegaki."

Sam then proceeded to show Aaron, the Frost Eyed Husky pup, with his phone. It then displayed a small Husky pup, that has black and white fluffy fur, with a snow white mane around its neck. With it's icy blue eyes...

Aaron thought, as he gazed at this magnificently adorable. 'It really is cute.'

Next was Kevin's turn. He showed us his character, then his in game name. "My character's name is Furuta Tsukimi. It seems to me that the surname (family name) is decided beforehand if you acquired a Kekkei genkai ability."

Aaron was stoked about the game, and he can't wait to play it. As he said, " Seems legit. But really?"

Kevin immediately replied. "I was always a big fan of Neji. I feel like it was destiny that I got the Moon Seeing Eye, beside it sort of resembles the Byakuguan anyway. So why not keep it up to theme."

With that said and done, Aaron went to get his lunch. He said, "Well that will be interesting. I will give the game a shot when I get home."

Sam shouted at Aaron, before his sight dissappears, to the back of the lunch line. "Tell us your character name through WhatsApp before you start the game, Okay? Also our starter village is Ugiri-meru."

Aaron responded, as he wave back, popping his hand out of the large que. "Sure thing..."

The school bell rings, and Aaron finishes his lunches, as he says good bye to Sam and Kevin.

Now he has something to look forward to when he gets home.

Aaron watches the clock ticking, passing the time, as the hour hand stops moving. It became stuck, making time seems endless.

Aaron sighs. Rolling his eyes around, as he steadily looks out the window. He thought, "Man, how I wish this period could be over."
