Lan, Chaud, Maylu, Yai, Tory, and Dex all woke up in a small, black-painted room. And... was that... their Navis across from them? Blues woke up, and seeing the room around them, groaned. As soon as all the rest of the Navis woke up, a girl with short brown hair (That had a red and black hair extension, apparently called a feather, in it) and pale blue eyes walked in, smiling, and clapped twice.
"Well, now that everyone's up, I apologize for the rough ride, but, hey. Life is life, unplanned things happen."
"El, you need to redecorate."
"Blues!" The girl, now identified as El, ran over and gave him a hug. "I haven't seen you in ages, Blues! Well, more like eight months, but it sure feels like ages."
"ProtoMan, do you know her?"
"Yeah. Almost a year ago, I got dragged into her, "How to Survive a Mary-Sue". I'm assuming we're in here for another of your one-oh-ones?"
"Yep! This one's How to Survive a Horror Story!"
"Joy..."
"But before we do anything, we have to test to see how much of this you already know. Assuming you have common sense, it shouldn't be that big of a deal, but still..."
"I'll go first, since I at least know a little about how you work."
"Yeah, and how many times were you jumped by fangirls or murdered by jealous boyfriends and brothers in the last course?"
"Shut up."
"Yeah, yeah, you know the drill. Go touch the dang screen already."
Giving her a quick grin, Blues walked to the front of the room and touched the vidscreen that covered the whole wall. His form shattered and the screen flicked to life, showing Blues in a dark, cluttered living room.
"So, Blues, your goal is simple this round. The town is full of zombies. You need to grab the one remaining uninfected person and get out of town, alive and unbitten. Clear?"
"Yes, ma'am."
Forming one hand into a sword and the other into a buster, he slipped out of the house. Fighting off a small group of zombies, he grabbed a little girl (forming the buster back into his hand), the only one he saw not all zombiefied, and ran. Pausing for breath on the edge of the town, he leaned against the wall of the nearest house. A moment later, he was staring quizzically at the large demon hand that was put through the wall- and him. After it pulled back, he slid to the ground slowly, struggling to breathe, blood running from the huge hole in his chest(1). He let out a soft moan, and then went still, having breathed his last...
And reappeared on the floor of the main room, the screen flicking off, and sat up slowly, coughing and rubbing his chest.
"Welcome back." El said dryly.
"Ow. I hate dying in your courses. Even if it's just a simulation, it still hurts."
"Yeah, well, get used to it. Something tells me you'll be dying a lot over the course of the... course."
"Shut up."
"Who's next?" El asked, cheery as if she'd just asked who wanted breakfast.
I realize that they're Navi's, they don't really have blood, but it's neccesary for the scene, okay?
And that is all. Bye now, and watch for chapter two!
