Death: By Video-Game Character
All… is darkness. Suddenly, from out the darkness, a shape begins to take form, eventually solidifying into a stage. A podium, crowned by a microphone, appears front-and-center, as what appears to be a teenager of about eighteen or nineteen walks on from stage-left. He wears a black t-shirt with a grinning orange jack-o-lantern on the front, along with a pair of dark-blue jeans and nondescript boots, but the most noticable features are the russet-red fox-ears perched atop his head, and the white-tipped tail behind him. Other than that, he looks human, and his dark-garnet eyes glower as he adjusts the microphone.
"Testing, testing… One, two…" His voice rings clearly into the darkness, and he clears his throat before he begins.
"Okay, I guess this deserves some explanation… All right, I suppose you could say it demands it. Well, it all started on a forum… which one isn't all that important… and a thread called 'Be Killed By A Video-Game Character.'"
He pauses briefly, as though considering, then shrugs. "Okay, so it's not so complicated after all. Here, you'll find the results of that thread, as posted by the Author, and featuring me. You can call me Jace. I'll be your hapless plaything for the amusement of a higher power.
"And yes, before you ask, this IS pointless. AND pointlessly-cruel. This should tell you something about the Author, but maybe you'll enjoy it anyway."
Glowering, he shuts off the mike and leaves the stage.
