Skyrim: SI

A/N I've booted my age up a few years to 18 in this fic, otherwise it wouldn't work so well.

For those of you that don't know SI means Self-Insert.

M rating for language, just to be safe blah blah blah...

Chapter 1

Didn't see that one coming...


Ah finally, my new game had arrived.

One of the most anticipated games of 2011, Skyrim. Now I know what you're all thinking, it's been a while since it came out. But I had no money, now I finally have it.

But before I start all of that I'm Matthew, no need to give you my last name, I'm white British, 5 foot 11 tall, I have blue eyes, brown short hair and I'm skinny(ish).

Enough of me, time to play Skyrim!

I put the project I had been working on down and popped the game disc into my PS3 and it automatically booted up, I selected the game disc and started the game, but before I did this I made sure I was signed off PSN. No interruptions, just the pure epic game that is Skyrim!

Wait, when I say it like that, it sounds rather... never mind, shutting up now!

The main menu came up on my TV screen, it looked quite simple actually, and a black background with a symbol in the shape of a dragon which I hadn't seen before. I selected the 'New Game' option and prepared to lose a few months of social life.

The music choir faded away and a loading screen came up, a massive dragon was perched on what looked like a monument, a pedestal? A small script of information came up stating that something about Alduin, and how he will come to destroy the world.

Wow they've already revealed the main plot to us already? Oh well.

Then the room became dark, I looked outside expecting a dark cloud to have covered the sun, but there was no outside any more. Just darkness.

Then a voice pierced the dark like a knife, a deep booming voice that would have belonged to a man of evil. This voice spoke a language I doubted even existed, but it seemed real, and not gibberish.

"Fen du hin kriaan joorre" It spoke "Zu'u Alduin. Zok sahrot do naan ko Lein!"

Whatever this guys saying, it spells trouble in my book.

"Di kiirre fen alok."

"AND YOU WILL ALL DIE!" This last sentence was in English, and was shouted like a command, an order.

Whoa, wait what? Who the hell is this? This is like something straight out of a video game!

No, hell no... That's just not possible...

My train of thought for the entire matter was cut off as I fell unconscious.


The first thing I felt when I awoke was the searing heat; licking its way around me. I pushed myself up from the ground and shook my head to wake myself up, and then I decided to open my eyes, expecting to see the room in my house.

But instead of being met by the familiar colours and furniture, I was met by burning medieval era houses and burnt corpses.

I quickly looked away and attempted to keep myself from being sick, I then tried to get up and only managed to fall back down onto one knee. I brought my hand to the source of the pain and discovered an arrow embedded in my right leg.

Well at least it wasn't in the knee!

Crap, how can I make jokes like this, I don't know where the hell I am and I have an arrow stuck in my leg.

Then I partially got up and crawled to the nearest wall that wasn't burning, a stone wall that was all that remained from a small crumbled house.

I closed my eyes and tried to relax, this has to be a bad dream... right?

The pain was getting progressively worse, I just felt the need to sleep, and maybe if I do I'll be back in my room playing Skyrim.

I kept on falling in and out of unconsciousness as time went on, and the each time I awoke the pain was just as bad as before.

"We have a live one over here!" A voice suddenly shouted, I cracked my eyes open as the owner of the feminine voice came over and bent down next to me whilst putting a comforting hand on my shoulder.

I heard the sound of feet plodding their way over; in the meantime I turned my head towards the women. Huh, she looks familiar... a Redguard? Adrianne Avenicci? Damn the guides for ruining this!

But that's still not right; if I could talk probably I'd be laughing my head of right now, screw this...

Then I fell unconscious once again.
