With everyone in the palm of his hands, will Arthur finally get revenge, or will his sanity disappear? Will someone stop the British boy, or will the world be under his rule forever? Inspired by Roma-Heta. AU
"You're a stupid eyebrows bastard!" A boy shouted as he pushed a sandy blonde-haired British boy with thick eyebrows and piercing green eyes down on the freshly cleaned tiled floor, and watched with a sickening smile as the boy who was previously pushed down scrambled up and feverishly began to collect his fallen papers. After insulting the boy a bit more, the bully and another group of people who joined in laughed and walked away, leaving the sandy blonde, who was still struggling to collect the pieces of paper, alone in the empty hallway.
The British boy, also known as Arthur Kirkland, sighed. It was the same thing every day; Come to school, get bullied during your classes, have your lunch stomped on, and did he mention getting bullied? Arthur didn't even know why the bullying even continued. When he first joined this school a year ago, everything was all fine until, one day at lunch time, he had tripped and his tray went flying; and it hit a Polish boy, who was a popular boy at the school, and thus, ruining his beautiful pink silk shirt. Ever since that day, it seemed that everyone began to bully him just because of a simple accident. It wasn't like Arthur tripped on purpose because he was jealous of the boy's fancy clothing or anything, he would never do that! Finally collecting all the papers, Arthur pulled himself up from the floor and trudged on to his third period class, not caring if he was going to be late anymore.
Finally, it was the end of the school day and Arthur had desperately dashed to his locker, not wanting to get into another damn incident. Lucky him, no one tripped him this time. After picking up his backpack and overstuffing it with school items and books, Arthur began to leave the school quarters. Finally outside and a good distance away from the school, Arthur took in a deep breath. Finally he could go home and relax, and if he was lucky enough his friend, Kiku, would call him over the phone or even chat with him over the internet if Arthur decided to go on his computer. Speaking of Kiku, why was the Japanese boy his friend in the first place? Well, because this year was the first year of high school for Kiku, the small Japanese boy had gotten lost in the school's building. Lucky for him, Arthur had found him and (unwillingly) helped him around the school. Ever since that, Arthur and Kiku soon began to be friends and helped each other with homework if needed, and sometimes hung out with each other. Of course, the news that Kiku was friends with the bully-magnet spread around the school rapidly, and Kiku was also bullied sometimes. But lucky for the brunette, his looks had usually made him escape from such things. Arthur silently mumbled something under his breath about how his eyebrows ruined his life, but he didn't want to get rid of them because they were somehow precious. Back to the world of reality, Arthur decided that, today, he would take a different route home. Of course the route was longer, but since it was still daytime it wouldn't be that dangerous…right?
While walking down the route Arthur had bumped into a computer game store, or so he thought. Out of curiosity, Arthur stopped and began to examine the store. It looked like an ordinary store, but with big glass windows and doors, and not to mention that it looked abandoned. About to continue on his path, Arthur noticed a man by him with a dark cloak on and a black top hat that made a shadow cover his face. Overall, he looked pretty suspicious.
"Hey kid…" The stranger suddenly said, making Arthur jump. " I have this neat game…"
"I don't want it." Arthur interjected as he began to walk past the man and away. But unluckily for him, the man grabbed his shoulder, stopping him.
"I'm sure ya do kid. This game...it's special." Arthur raised an eyebrow. Was this person trying to scam him for money or something? "I ain't going to scam ya for ya money, kid. In fact, this here game is free." Arthur finally turned and faced the stranger.
"Free, what do you mean?" Arthur stupidly asked as he turned around. It wasn't like he was interested or anything, he was just concerned about a game being sold for free!
" Yea, fer free." The stranger replied and smirked. "I can sense that ya get bullied almost every day, huh kid? Well, with this here game, the world is yours." Arthur blinked. The world was hi- wait it was just one of those Sims game or something!
"I don't want it." Arthur rejected, about to turn around and try to leave again; until the person spoke up again.
"It ain't nowhere like the Sims; the world is literally yours." The stranger reassured as he placed the game in Arthur's hand, "Just don't get too crazy about it. One mistake and everyone is in danger. Everything goes as planned, beware. A click will change this entire world." With that finally said, the stranger left.
Arthur stared at the case in his hands. Was the man on crack or something, it was just a stupid game! Arthur sighed. But, it was a gift…right? So being a polite kid, Arthur had no decision to throw it away or give it instead. Plus, he was a little curious about what the stranger said. Placing the disk securely in a pocket in his green hoodie, Arthur continued to walk home.
Back at home, Arthur had just finished his homework, ate, and done his chores. It was now 8 P.M. This meant that he had time to play this mysterious game. Sitting down in his grey swivel chair, Arthur turned on his computer and inserted the disk in. Then he began to wait for the computer to load.
