There was an 18-year old boy named Matthew who, in our own world, loved anime. However, there was only one he was the most interested in: Ah! My Goddess. No matter how hard he tried, he could never find someone who truly understands him and loves him to be his wife. He figured out that there were different dimensions, different Earths from our own and ones linked with anime. So he decided to put his life of work into building an interdimensional portal in order to travel to that specific universe that he knew existed and try to form a contract with a particular goddess and return home with her as her wife. Within 5 to 6 years he grew into an adult and built his lab. After researching many theories about interdimensional travel, he finally finished his work and constructed the portal.
There were two others with white lab coats in the lab that were helping him. One of them is named Anthony and the other, Maddison.
"Are you sure this is going to work, Matt?" Anthony asked.
"I'm positive." Matthew said (while in a lab coat himself). "I put my life's work into building this portal. I've checked everything, the neuron particle flow, the energy couplings, and the power cells."
Then Maddison walked up to him. "I hope it does, we spent years doing this together Matthew. But if it does work, how do we communicate with you?" she asked.
"I have this device on me that will allow me to contact you on how I'm doing on the other side. Don't worry, I've made sure it won't break on me." Matthew said.
He had on what looked like a wrist watch but it almost covers up the entire lower part of his left arm. It was made from titanium alloy, which was used for spaceships. That way, it wouldn't get damaged so easily.
"It's time to begin the starting sequence." He said.
He flipped all the switches and the lights came on and there was a sudden burst of energy. The machine turned on and the portal was fully up and running at normal speed.
"Wow, this is just what I dreamed of these past few years and it's FINALLY happening!" he shouted. All the others seemed to have been impressed and clapped.
"It's now time. Wish me luck everyone!" He said.
However, after that, something went horribly wrong! After a minute when he activated the portal there was a lot of gravity pull. It sucked almost anything within its perimeter. Matthew was frightened that the portal would destroy him if he got sucked into it! He and the others tried moving as fast as they could away from it, but could not escape the gravity pull.
"Everyone! You got to hold on!" He yelled.
The others managed to escape the area of the gravity pull, but Matthew could not.
"What about you?!" they yelled.
"You all go!" He yelled. "I have to go through, and I can't just turn back, not after I worked so hard for this!"
Matthew knew he wouldn't get a second try at this, so he had to consider this to be his only option.
"But you can't!" they yelled. "How do you know it will work, its unstable! What would your parents think?!"
Then Matthew went silent while in the air for a moment and smiled.
"Look, tell them I love them, and that I promise them I will be back. Please. I at least have to try, please trust me!" He said.
Anthony and Maddison fell silent and after a few seconds or so, they then smiled as well.
"Alright, we'll tell them, just DON'T DIE OK?! And remember to keep in touch! " they said.
"I won't die, I promise you!" Matthew yelled.
He moved closer to the portal and pressed the button on the panel to send himself to the dimension he wanted. Matthew then had a blank, yet sad look on his face, looking back on all the friends who helped him. He had then let go and the gravity pulled him into the portal through time and space.
"Farewell everyone" He said.
The portal closed behind him and the others were in shock and then felt sad after Matthew had gone, but they did his request as promised and told his parents, they were so sad after the end but when the others told them that their son promised to return, they felt happy and wished him good luck as well. As such, Matthew then began his journey.
