000- break in the story.
Chapter One:
Mikado gazed outside the window of his classroom boringly, dazing out. Ignoring the lecture given to by the teacher. He didn't care, he doubted it would of been an important lecture. Nothing new seemed to occur, it was normal. Guys and gals txted away during class, a few were asleep, only those who really cared paid attention. Mikado didn't care, he stopped caring once this had become a regular routine. Nothing new happened, sure he'd put up with it for this long, but now he craved for a new outlet. An adventure, a brand new beginning to something greater, something fun and entertaining.
Sigh.
After class, chatter erupted. Talk about the new virtual reality game took place again. Everyone had been talking about the game non-stop for the past month, and now it seems that it was close to being released. Mikado knew very little about it, since he hardly even ever paid attention to most thing around him, but he would listen in time to time. Apparently the main point of the game is role playing, nothing short of a normal game only difference is your are virtually digitized into the game. You are who you play, basically. Starting off as a novice, play until your pro. Make fun of newbies that sort of thing. Not really interested Mikado stared outside the window once again, still though keeping an ear out for the conversation between a group of guys about the game.
"Have you heard? The creator of the game is going to allow one lucky person play his game before it released. No demo like before, but actually play the game, and maybe even keep it too!"
"No way, serious? That's epic. I'm going to sign up for that. Create your own adventure, whatever happens, happens and it's all because of what you would say or do! Man this game is going to be a blast, this knocks all other virtual reality games off the chart. I hope I win."
"Yeah you and every other person in Japan who would want a piece of that history making. I want to win it too."
"Let's go sign up right after school!"
Over hearing the conversation, Mikado thought over what they said. 'Whatever happens, happens. Your own grand adventure. One lucky winner...' That thought circled Mikado's mind throughout the entire day. When he would go off thinking about it again, those words always manage to sneak their way back into his mind. Even after school as he walked home. Lost in thought Mikado didn't even noticed the sign he bumped into knocking it down, snapping back into the real world. Mikado picked up the sign and placed it back into it's proper position. He took notice to what the sign read [ Sign up for chance to play the new virtual reality game before anyone else!]
'I suppose it wouldn't hurt to sign up...what are the odds of winning anyway?'
Walking in the store and taking a application sheet, Mikado filled out the form. Placing his full name, address, gender, age,and phone number in the correction spot. Smiling with satifaction Mikado folded the paper and slipped it into the application box and left. He had two weeks left before they announced the winner on T.V. Everyone could only hope and pray.
000
Two weeks down, Mikado sat in his room with his laptop turned onto the livestream news feed of the announcement. For now they interviewed the creator about the developement of the game. The creator would be the one that would announce the winner, it was said not only would the winner be announced on T.V. and livestream, but the creator would also call the winner and tell it to them personally too. What a scary thought, Mikado became nervous at the very thought. Nervous about the annoucement and the possible phonecall.
"Alright folks! I think it's just about time we annouce to you the very lucky winner of the sweepstakes! If you would pease sir."
Mikado watched eagerly as the creator dug his hand into the giant class container that contained all the applications formed filled out. Each second gone felt like a million years. Sweat trailed down Mikado's forehead, the anticipation was excruciating. Finally after what seemed like a billion years the creator pulled out a single sheet of paper, slowly unfolding it, the creator looked it over and a small smile crept over his face.
Gulp.
One of the technical producers jogged over and handed a phone over to the creator who then slowly punched in the number on the form.
Mikado swallowed the lump in his throat. He stared intently at his cell phone, waiting and inticipating. Glancing over at his laptop, he saw the creator press the phone against his ear. The audience could hear the first ring that was made.
At that exact instant. Mikado's phone lit up and his ringtone played along to Miku Hatsune's song Love is war. Mikado's eye's widen and his heart stopped. He won? He won. He won! Adrenaline surged through his body as his hand pounced towards his phone and his thumb clicked on the green pick up button. Placing his phone up against his ear.
"H-hello?"
His stuttered hello repeated itself on his laptop. He was on air, his voice was on air, He won and he still couldn't believe it.
"Yes, is this Ryuugamine Mikado?" The creator's husky voice spoke.
"Y-yes. This is him."
"Well I am proud to annouce to you that you my son are the winner! You will be the very first person to evey play my game!"
"I can't- this is- what an honor! T-thank you so much!" Mikado didn't care that he butchered his words. He won! He really won! Tears of joy streamed down his face.
"Hahaha I'm glad to hear that! I will be expecting you at my company first thing tomorrow. I will text over a secret password, that only me and my doorman will know! That way you can get in, do you understand?"
"Y-yes!"
"Good! See you then Mister Ryuugamine."
Click, the call ended. A few seconds later Mikado's phone vibrated. He received the text it read, [ The password is: Fa-doodle.]
'Fa-doodle?...'
He was expecting something cool, but he supposed that would do as well. All that matters then was, he won! It didn't matter how many times he said it, it was exciting each and everytime. Tomorrow would be the day Mikado got to finally begin a grand adventure. Fake or not, it was an adventure. Something he desperately longed for. Who could sleep after hearing something like that?

The next morning Mikado stood outside a massive building which looked like a towered greater than the height of a skyscaper.
Gulp.
He looked at the doorman, who was well let's be honest. Large and in charge. That didn't look like a doorman, that looked like yakuza. He was darked skinned and well over six feet. The name plate read Simon. The giant man looked down at Mikado and smiled.
"You must be the winner. Yes? What is the password?"
"Eh?...Oh um yes, right. The password is..Fa-doodle?"
The big man grinned, Mikado no longer felt fear towards the older man. He seemed to be nice and peaceful, so Mikado smiled too as the man lead him through the coperate doors.
"This company is proud to have you here..."
"Ryuugamine Mikado."
"Yes, Mikado. Welcome! We have much to show, but you must want to play the game first, yes?"
Mikado nodded, he was mesmerized by the structure of the building. They architecture was amazing, the entire buidling looked like it was made by glass, even the stairs were clear and beautiful.
Up the elevator, Mikado looked in awe at the view. He could see all of Ikebukuro, his school, the shopping center, even the small shop where he filled the application. The elevator door opened to a giant lab, stepping out Mikado was guided to the center of the room. It felt as though he just stepped into movie, all the walls were painted white everyone was dressed in white, except for he and Simon. Lab equipment and computer screens took up a good portion of the room, and a giant screen took one part of the wall. It showed a meadow of some time, Mikado took a guess and figured it was what was some part of the game. Mikado's thought's became interrupted by the creator.
"Ah, Mikado glad to see you here on time? Are you ready? We would like to get you started immediately."
"Um."
Next thing Mikado a lab technician with a mask on came towards Mikado placing what looked like a normal watch on his wrist.
"This device will allow you to come out of the game. All you have to do is press the red button on the side, and well the time, is just the time. Have fun."
Before he knew it Mikado was standing alone in a secluded part of the wall, with what looked like a giant lazer pointing straight at him. Fear began to take over again. Everything was happening so fast, too fast for his liking. The creator shouted to Mikado from across the room.
"Don't worry! This won't hurt! This beam will shoot itself at you, gathering your DNA and transport it into the game! You won't feel a thing! We've done this many times!"
Those words didn't seem to ease Mikado's raging thought's of doom. Something was off, he knew it. He had a bad feeling, but he choose to ignore it. The lab technicians have been doing this for forever, Mikado should trust them.
"You ready? Okay!"
The lab tech's pressed a few buttons and then the lazor fired a bright beam. The beam itself shot out a blue light as if scanning Mikado, everything was happening very quickly, Mikado relaxed slightly, but not for too long. A siren rung and everything had turned red. Caution signals sweeped all over each individual computer screen and the beam began to over heat. Without a chance to scream for help, without a chance to run. The lazor beam blew up. Mikado dissapeared. All that was left were the black chared marks of what use to be the lazor and what use to be Mikado.

He could hear his heart beat, he could recall what happened. Something malfunction and the machine blew up in his face. Then why wasn't he dead? Maybe this was heaven. Maybe just maybe this was heaven.
"Oh dear. What do we have here? Your a strange one."
A voice? Who did it belong to? Mikado couldn't see, everything was black. His eyes were closed, Everything began to fade.
"Hm, I should probably help. Things are becoming very interesting. Have no fear strange boy, your savior is here."
Mikado didn't understand, he didn't care. He couldn't move, everything was fading quickly. He was being saved, by who he didnt' know. He was greatful none the less. He was alive. Everything became black.
TBC.
Well that's it for the first part. Things will definitely become interesting. Who was his savior? Can anyone guess? Tune in please!
