In a certain dimension unknown to most a world Exist where a young boy lives. He doesn't really possess any special characteristic and by all means he is what one can call extremely normal as if he possesses no uniqueness at all. He himself knew that he's just normal not a hero from a fairy-tale that saves the world from neither certain doom nor someone who deserves too much attention from people around him. Currently he's searching in an old run down store for antique figurines. The store featured a full sale on their old manga, figurines and anime CD. Currently he's searching inside a box for interesting things but so far none of them has taken his interest. Not until he lifted multiple boxes from a shelf finding a curious little white box.
"What's this?" He asked lifting the box examining it. It was quite heavy. There's a feeling that what's inside might fall through if he maintains its current position thus he sets it on the floor opening it. Though the box is quite dusty he used the sleeves of his jacket to remove the dust showing a unique picture of a gaming console. He proceeded to open it.
"A Console isn't it?" He said looking at the pure white book like console in inside the box, despite it from being in an old shop the console is extremely clean as if untouched. "I wonder if I can afford this one." He asks lifting the box to carry over the counter.
"Ma'am how much is this console?" He asked an old lady by the counter looking outside with a falling snow, she turned her eyes squinting even though she's wearing a pair of glasses and looking at the box.
"You want this one?" She asks moving her glasses slowly while her shaking hands analyzed the box the old lady wrote instead of talking wrote the price of the console instead. The boy looked at it and disappointed that it was out of his price range by a small amount.
He gave sigh "Oh... It's a bit out of my price range; Oh well there must be other things in the store. Thanks ma'am I'll be returning it instead." He spoke in good manner reaching for the box,
Seeing this old lady placed her hands on the box "How about this sonny?" She said in deep shaking voice. She rewrote the price which much lower than the original. "Consider this a discount for that good attitude of yours." She said with a smile.
The boy though surprised tried to refuse the offer but the old lady just looked at him blankly. He finally accepted and paid for the console. "Have fun with it..." The old lady said before the boy left through the door.
It was really cold as he got out and late. With only the street light to light his way he proceeded to go home. He walked through a snowy road. His home is just a room in an apartment building quite normal as he is. Placing the box on the floor he proceeded into the kitchen to have his dinner before he begins playing. He then sat down in the living room in front of a large television bringing out the pristine white console from the box. He looked inside the box again seeing a pure white CD inside.
"What's this?" He took the CD turning it from each side. at first glance it was a normal blank white CD. But accidentally the light of the room reflected a hidden silver writing that said 'GODDESS'. Though curious of what it is the set it down on the couch for a while booting the console, It was a weird console to begin with the boot button was upside down. Quite slim and looks very Hi-tech. The console fan turned on making a gust for a few seconds before quieting down. The television shown a blue screen that says 'Enter CD:'
The boy turned to the CD taking it blowing it a few times like it was a certain gaming console before placing the CD inside a space that has a CD mark on it. The CD can be heard spinning from inside and the Interface changed.
It shown a purple color lettering of a title that says "Hyperdimension:" And following its menu buttons.
As follows the Menu is in deep black background with white font letters:
Enter Game
Options
Exit
Connecting the controller that came with the game he pressed the Enter Game: What came next is the most basic of all RPG games. Choosing a name for his character. He thought that the name of his character should slightly resemble or at least came from his own name. Thinking really hard he decided to enter "N... E... O..., Neo that's perfect." He said proudly entering the OK button from the next is the part where most people would takes hours and hours of dedication and hard work to finish the character design. Weirdly enough the character he was shown next seems to be quite ideal from what he wants. A brown slightly spiky hair paired with a deep blue eyes, A light skin complexion like an anime character, It was wearing a Gray hooded jacket with black lining spreading throughout it's back towards the sleeves, A white shirt that has a blue necktie design, A black what seems to be a jogging pants paired with a blue sneakers.
He was actually just that lazy that he doesn't really want to design the character too much satisfied with what he saw he just simply accepted the design and proceeded with the game, Weirdly the game only stayed on a screen which says 'Please Stand By..." He then waited for a while, beginning to get a bit bored he decided to check if the console froze the game, he pressed the start button multiple times. From the standby screen appeared weird characters that passed through rapidly.
"Did I accidentally break it, Crap..." He crawled towards the console. He looked at it and it was still running finely. He noticed the light in his room beginning to be brighter; He looked at the screen seeing as the source of the bright light. The last thing he remembers was a feeling of a breeze and a gust of wind that entered his room before collapsing.
It was cold, very cold; it's the first thing he felt in an extremely dark place. He raised his head his first question "Where am I?" He looked around the darkness. The wind echoed through the area. He saw a light from a nearby exit. He proceeded slowly touching what seems to be quite a cold and wet wall.
"Huh?" His eyes widened seeing a fantasy like place outside. A forest covered with snow and from a distant he sees a large city. Though he looked around confused where he is he concluded that the best way to know was to go to the city itself. The area is simply just cold but thankfully his jacket was enough to keep the cold at bay. That's the moment where he realized a certain detail, the black lining of his jacket was very similar to that of the character design of the game. He then gazed at his palm his complexion was indeed not the same...
"P-perhaps it's just cold... There's no way its possible right?" He stuttered seeing his pants and sneakers the proofs we're just too much, at that moment he heard a certain bouncing noise from behind. He turned seeing a creature behind him. A bouncing dog like creatures with a shiny silver color appeared.
"It's kind of cute though..." He said with a smile. The creature wore a cure expression transformed into somewhat aggressive, It leaped above his head. Looking above from under the creature's body, He saw a shiny reflection of his face. The exact same face of the character he saw from the game.
"No wa-" The creature dropped to his face he fell down to the ground it was quite heavy for his he quickly moved his hand grabbing the creatures somewhat both soft and hard body throwing it to the sides. "What the hell was that?" He thought "Am I inside that game or something?" He asked but he couldn't focus on the thought due to the creature that came back. It looked at him fiercely
"You again?" He prepared a stance he learned from watching a certain anime "Come on then!" He said taking a step forward the creature quickly jumped he moved his hand jabbing the creature a full force sending it at full speed on a tree, Dissipating it into pixels.
After the creature disappeared he heard a funfair like sound from inside his head "Isn't the victory audio from Final Fan..." He stopped noticing a shining bracelet on his left wrist. The weird upside boot button was in the middle shining brightly. He pressed the button showing a certain menu in front of him. The first thing he searched for was the logout button. But sadly there's no such things only an inventory, equipment, status and skills menu. Clicking on the status using his index finger it reveals the face of his character along with two lines:
Name: Neo
Level: 2
"Neo... so is that gonna be my name in this world?" He asked looking a little more accepting of his current situation "Well if this is how it's gonna be... might as well play along..." Neo then sighed looking at the distant city. "Now if I'm not mistaken an RPG usually starts with the first city isn't it?" He said beginning to walk towards the City.
Neo took his first steps towards what he thinks is a going to be the longest walk of his life, Thought knowing that he's going to be in a real fantasy game like world was a little bit reassuring for him. To be honest he's a little more excited on how the events will move on as he gets stronger. Unknown to him was the secrets of his arrival in the world and the power he possess and his bracelet.
