Prologue: Shattered dreams

               It was a cold winter night in a small Canadian town just outside of Icetown, and Tyler is just 15 years old, getting back from a friends birthday party down the street. When he gets to his house he sees that the door is open, but the lights are off. That's odd he thought, my mom is usually too paranoid to leave the door open. He rushed through the door to see what is wrong, which was something that he didn't think would ever happen. He saw the bodies of both of his parents lying on the floor in front of him, a hole through both of their heads. Without thinking he reached for the phone. His hand trembling he dialed 911.

               "Hello 911, how may I help you?" a voice came through the other side.

               "My parents are dead..." he managed to say, through muffled sobs.

               "Dead? What happened?" the operators voice came through the other end.

               "I- I was at a party, and when I got home I found them on the floor, I think they were shot..."

               "Please wait one second, the police will be there soon, try to remain calm while you wait."

               "Calm! How the hell do you expect me to remain calm!" Tyler was yelling into the receiver.

               "Please don't yell, you'll just get over-" Tyler hung up and fell to his knees, crying.

               "Why, who did this..." he raised his head and saw a small black box. "What on earth?" he asked aloud. he opened it and pulled out the contents, a small device with a screen, several buttons, and a plug on the top. "Its one of those devices from Japan, a personal terminal I think it was called. I wonder if it works?" he pressed the button on the side and it turned on, after a few seconds it showed the figure of what appered to be a small gray and red man, holding a sword. "What the hell?" Tyler wondered aloud, he was even more confused when it answered him.

               "No, I'm not hell, I'm Echs.exe, and you are?" the man on the screen was talking to Tyler! He couldn't believe it.

               "I'm Tyler, and what are you?" Tyler was staring at Echs.

               "Well, I guess I'm your Net-Navi, Tyler" the man, or navi, placed the tip of his sword to the ground, if that is what you could call it, and rested on it.

               "Net... navi?" Tyler had a confused look on his face. But before he could be explained to a police officer came busting through the door, yelling.

               "Is anyone here?" Tyler quickly shoved the personal terminal into his pocket and wiped the tears from his face

               "In here officer..."
