This is the story of how I discovered a portal to fiction and that changed my life, my name..., my name..., what was my name? I haven't thought about it for a long time, YES, I remember, my name is Haruki-san but you can call me Haki, Shadow, Silent or many other names that have been given to me over time.
As I said that portal changed my life and transported me through an infinity of crazy worlds, it all started a few years ago, I was an otaku that didn't leave his house, nobody wanted to talk to me, not even write to me, I was a total failure, I spent every day eating Doritos and watching hentai with the lights off LOL, it was all a nonsense.
*Several years in the past*
—Mother: HARUKICHAN THE DINNER
—ME: MOTHER LEAVE THE FOOD IN THE HALLWAY, I DON'T FEEL LIKE STOPPING PLAYING, I'M CLOSE TO GET KLEE ON ONE OF THESE GATCHA.
Mother walked down the hallway and dropped the plate at my door, looking disgusted and sad, I was such an idiot back then but I didn't know it, I swear, later I would change, but then I was.
I wiped off my Doritos with my t-shirt and took a sip of my Monster, I picked up the papers that were crumpled on the desk full of scraps of stuff and threw them aside, along with more stuff, it was disgusting but then BAM I got Klee on the banner, I couldn't believe it, I shrieked WOOW, like a madman and leaned my chair back, yessssss, perfect now to eat hell yeah, well, I opened my bedroom door making sure no one from my stupid family was around and picked up the food from the floor, I ate it and it was really good, I left the plates next to the other plates in a corner of the desk and growled, life sucks, I said to myself, I threw the chopsticks against the wall and one of them stuck in the wall, It was fun to train throwing things, it was a fun habit, how boring now it would be time to farm protogems but I didn't feel like it so I read some manga, why are all the girls like that? That angry me! No, no, no, noooo, that protagonist is stupid coward!!, I can do it better!!!, I threw the manga against the shelf, this is boring..., I got into bed and BOOM, you wouldn't know what happened, you wouldn't believe him unless you already know that it's me who is telling it to us from the future and I'm not someone else, otherwise you wouldn't believe it, but suddenly, I started to see a crack in my ceiling, as if the television had broken and I started to see those gray and white and black spots when there is no signal, that's exactly what it is, but in a crack. I was terrified to death when I saw that thing, a crack in the ceiling of my room, a crack that started to get bigger and bigger until it covered the whole ceiling, almost as if the ceiling had been broken in half and only a television scar remained, with a very bad signal, I thought that the Monster was not bad for me but mother was right, or I had gone crazy from watching so much internet but no, luckily it was nothing like that, I was fine, it was there and I had not gone crazy, suddenly, from that thing came out a contraption that fell and hit me in the head, I lost consciousness and fell asleep.
I don't know how much time passed but when I woke up it was dark again, or so I think because the blinds were down, but I think it was already late, it was very dark, my computer had turned off the screen and I could not see anything, I touched everything with my hands looking for what could be that thing that hit me, and I touched a kind of watch, an old watch of those that are placed on the wrist, works with batteries and has strange mechanisms, but the unique and special thing about it, is that it had no needles, it was not like a watch, it was almost like a watch, but it had a screen like a mobile phone, but it had a screen like a mobile phone, it had a screen like a cell phone, but it had a screen like a cell phone that when I touched it, the whole room was illuminated with an intense red, ah, the crack had disappeared that's why everything was dark until that moment of course, everything was illuminated in red, I could see the object better and I put it on my wrist, great, old watch acquired, these things are always great, but no, it was not a watch, on its screen it said TOUCH, which means touch, which I know thanks to the games I played on the computer, which had turned on when I moved the mouse and now there was a little more light, indeed it was 03: 06 at night, I looked away from the computer again to that thing on my wrist, TOUCH, I could touch it to see what happens but I was afraid, although I am not a coward like most protagonists in anime, so I touched that thing, it clicked and squeezed my wrist, that damn thing grabbed me! , I tried to take it off but I couldn't, what the FUCK, IT HAD STUCK QUANTICALLY TO MY SKIN AND WOULD NOT COME OUT OF THERE, IT WAS LIKE IT WAS PART OF ME, no..., it was inevitably part of me now, after a few seconds, that thing went plink, ZIP, and the screen changed to a less psychopathic blue, a smiling two-dotted face appeared and talked to me :) THAT THING SPOKE TO ME
—THING: he-llo ow-ner
It spoke as if it were a robot with a female voice.
—THING: m-my name-i-is A-21, Al-so kn-ow-n as A-li.
I opened my eyes wide and pulled my arm away from me.
—Me: WHAT THE FUCK, WHAT ARE YOU?
—A-21: I-I'm a A-I
—Me: Is this real? Am I dreaming? Am I dead?
—A-21: Yes-No-No
—Me: Why did you stick to my fucking hand?
—A-21: I am a to-ol to tra-vel bet-we-en re-ali-ties
—Me: Whaaaatt? Is this a joke? It can't be real
—A-21: No, Yes, it's-real, Di-spla-ying op-tio-ns clo-se to yo-ur po-int.
The screen lit up and a futuristic holographic-like screen appeared in front of me with a dot-like map and strange things on it.
—Me: WHAT IS THIS I DON'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING.
—A-21: Th-this is your re-a-li-ty.
Shine a dot in the middle of everything
—Me: NO, DON'T EXPECT THAT, STOP.
A light shone illuminating the whole room and when it disappeared I was no longer there, I was in a kind of tunnel, as if I was falling, and I kept screaming
Aaaahhhh, aaaahhhh I'm going to die without touching a woman!
—A-21: No, don't di-e
—Me: shut up!!!
I kept screaming at A-21 until in tears I fell to some kind of grass, it was outdoors and I could hear the birds chirping.
—ME: DAMN PSYCHOPATH YOU ALMOST KILLED ME, AND THEN YOU ALSO, YOU ALMOST KILLED US BOTH.
—A-21: no, I do-n't un-der-sta-nd yo-u
—Me: where are we damn it
I looked around me and everything was green, there were forests and mountains, it breathed of flowers and some WHAT IS THAT, DAMN GIGANTIC MUSHROOMS , I rubbed my hands with my eyes and looked back with wide eyes where I was, there were giant green pipes, damn bitch I'm dreaming, this can't be real.
—A-21: yes
No it can't, I hit my face but only ended up with a pain in my mouth, this definitely is real LMAO.
—A-21: It is.
Let go of me!
This was definitely real, this damn thing on my wrist.
—A-21:A-21
Shut up
This damn thing on my wrist, A-21, had transported me into the world of Mario Bros, AM I INSIDE A VIDEO GAME?!
—A-21: The co-rre-ct te-rm is an-ot-her rea-lity.
You're insufferable, but that's ok, let's walk to see what we find, I walked a bit towards one of those giant pipes I wanted to see what was inside them and to my surprise it was more disappointing than I expected, I climbed on it while talking to A-21,
Me: and tell me what else do you do besides this?
—A-21: I sc-an, I se-nd, I ca-ll... L-ow bat-te-ry, lo-w ba-tter-y, lo-w ba-tte-ry...
—A-21 started talking like she was drunk and smiled :), then the screen turned off and stopped responding.
—Me: No no no no no noooooo, now what do I do, how do I get back, WHAT DO I DO.
I touched the screen in case it would turn back on but it wouldn't turn on, NOTHING AT ALL, how do I charge this? God I'm lost, I don't know where I am, I was so desperate that I didn't calculate my feet well and I fell into the pipe, I thought I would hit the end but I made some kind of ZUIP sound and I teleported to another portal, I came out of it like Mario with a forced jump and HOOP, how did I do that?! In this world the pipes work like that, interesting, it would be great to write it down somewhere, but I have no paper and A-21 is asleep, if I continue in the future the same way, I will need paper or someone to write things down for me, writing things down is not my thing, but reading, reading manga is great, right now walking around here, a jungle of giant mushrooms the only thing I wish for is a dark room with a good manga, but one of those schoolboys, I kept walking with that in mind until I discovered a castle, not a damn castle, THE DAMN CASTLE OF THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM, this is amazing, I walked a little more through the forest until I could get close enough, but no one could see me, it was all covered with mushroom guards with spears, I'm still unarmed, it would be a bad idea if they discover me and think I'm a threat, I circled around thinking about how to get into the castle, near a wall there was an open window, it would be easy to get in if I could get a double jump, and thinking about where I was, I COULD MAKE A CLEAR DOUBLE JUMP, I waited for the guards to move away from there and when it was clear I took a run and BOING, I got to the window, perfect now I was inside the castle, I would have to move very stealthy if I wanted to get out of there alive, the corridor was super luxurious with a big red, which remarked how luxurious everything was, everything was full of doors and I started to walk slowly down the corridor, I looked at A-21 which was still off and I gave it a knock just in case, but nothing, it didn't react, I heard noises on the floor below, I approached the stairs, I looked for a place to hide but there was nothing, there was nothing to hide and I entered the first door I saw, it was a room of a very rich person, it was decorated with many things, but the voices kept coming closer and I got into the closet, it was so big that I could sit comfortably, but I stayed there so as not to make noise and I heard how they entered the room.
—????:Maa-ma miaa, you haven't answered my messages for a day, what's wrong with you Peach, fuck, since you left with Daisy and that other stupid friend of yours you're not the same, I'm tired of it.
—Peach: Mario stop behaving like this and leave me alone you don't control me, besides if I don't answer you it's because I'm in yoga classes, I already told you.
—Mario: Yoga shut the fuck up bitch, you're with your slutty friends.
—Peach: Stop talking about my friends like that, get out of the castle! I can't see you anymore.
—MARIO: IS THIS TRUE?! if you don't come back asking for forgiveness, i swear you'll pay for it, you bitch, i'm tired of you already.
—Peach: Then you come crying for forgiveness, you're crazy, you have no reason to be like that.
Mario left the room slamming the door, Peach left the room immediately and the argument continued down the hallway until they left the palace.
Mario and Peach arguing? Hahahaha, what I had yet to see, once they left I went out of the closet, wow, Peach's room, Peach's real room hahaha, I threw myself on her bed and started to smell, she smelled really good girl and flowers, I wonder if she is ok, I opened her drawers and started to snoop her stuff, girl stuff, makeup, she had mushrooms in a drawer, I guess since it's the mushroom kingdom, is this ok? It crossed my mind, I've never done anything like this before, this is not very legal, but who's going to catch me, besides, it's another reality isn't it, This is good, I started to look through her drawers until I found her panties, all tidy, I put one in my pocket and took another one to my face and smelled, I couldn't believe it, Peach's panties on my face hahaha, I jumped on her bed and started to turn around while I smelled the panties, this is a dream come true, I can't believe it hahahaha, I was breathing with all my strength and I didn't realize that the doorknob turned, in a second by self-reflection, I rolled to the side of the bed, I fell like a cat to the floor with all four limbs and rolled under the bed, honestly an impeccable job due to so many days of training so that my family would not detect me going to the bathroom and avoid uncomfortable questions of if when I will stop locking myself or when I would return to classes, I hate my parents, but thanks to that booom, they had not detected me, I hid under the bed and I heard some steps that were heading towards the bed, they were Peach's legs that without a doubt, I held my breath and she just sat on the bed, I have to get out of here unfinished descubriendone.
—Peach: Fucking Mario every day he's about to get me, but I don't care, that bastard thinks he's controlling me.
Are you kidding me? Speaking in a situation like this out loud, I tried to go slowly towards the window, but without getting out from under the bed, Peach opened a drawer and took out a big mushroom, I did not give it importance and continued slowly crawling towards the window, until I started to hear some small moans coming from above me, it can not be Peach was touching himself on top of me.
—Peach: Cuckold asshole, even Toad does it better than you.
Whaaaatt, I have to get out of here or this will get worse if she catches me, I started to slowly walk over to the window, as Peach's moans went up and up, I started to get up to open the window and Peach was moaning and screaming, the window was fucking closed, I tried to open it but the moment I did it Peach moaned, I got scared and made the window open with a big CLONK, Peach was startled and I think she ended up coming, she looked at me perplexed for a few seconds, completely naked from the waist down, we shared glances for a few seconds until she ended up screaming.
—Peach: GUARDS, GUARDS, GUARDS GUARDS
AND I RAN OUT OF THE WINDOW, BUT IT WAS A SECOND FLOOR!!!!!
So I grabbed onto the ledge and got caught as I thought about where to jump to.
—Me: A-21 I NEED YOU!!!, WAKE UP, WAKE UP!!!
She didn't respond
I jumped to a ledge and more and more guards started coming, fuck, I jumped over another ledge and grabbed with my hands to a ledge jumping to the floor below, I ran down the hallway and enter the kitchen, right, a guard was eating a donut, IT CANNOT BE TRUE BUT WHAT A DAMN CASUALTY, the guard screamed and they started to surround me, I started to put up a fight but I had no weapons and I was at full disadvantage, believe me, I could have put up a fight but I couldn't.
A-21 wake up, A-21 WAKE UP!!!!! GET ME OUT OF HERE.
But A-21 was turned off and didn't hear me, the guards ended up surrounding me and arresting me, damn bastards.
—Toad soldier: You are under arrest by order of her majesty the queen, do not resist.
—Me: let me go you bastards I didn't do anything!
—Toad soldier: That's for the Queen to decide, not you.
They dragged me to the dungeons. Fuck.
