"And that's what you need to know to be a better Genji-" with a swipe of the finger up the man talking was cut off short. Along with many other voices swiping through being cut off

"You know I Don't know why I keep getting Overwatch 2 vids not like a play the game" spoke the very bord out of his mind protagonist. Swiping through TikTok hell, which was just memes, games, manga recommendations, and of course thirst traps. And the worst part is he has school in the morning at 7 and it was currently 3:46 in the morning.

"Ok, I should just go to bed at this point I'll be a walking corpse in the morning" and with that he set his alarm, turned off his phone, and took himself to sleep. And this was the start of our story.

Journal entry #1 – First day

"YAWN~"

Opening my eyes first thing in the morning and I couldn't see straight I remember looking around my room and it being noticeable different, and the alarm put the night before never went off I reached for my phone and grabbed a handful of air.

With that I was fully awake and looked to my side where my nightstand usually is. But all that was there was a small empty space. "Ok unless I did some rearranging in my sleep, I'm pretty sure my nightstand supposed to be there."

Infact now that I could see straight, I was getting a real good look at my "Room" and "This is my room..." I stated and a mild panic, it looked like I was in the room of a child or a very lonely adult.

"Sweety come down! Breakfast Is ready!"

And now I was in a full-blown panic, I was in a house, a random house and somebody's random as room. Oh, jeez Rick I'm in deep shit now! What do I do, casually walk downstairs and say, "Oh excuse me. It seems I have wandered astray into your house and room, mind pointing me in the right direction while you're at it go ahead and CALL THE POLICE!"

"Honey, you ok I'm coming up"

I'm going to jail no prison, yup breaking and entering, well actually I didn't actually break anything so It's more trespassing and

Knock knock

Completely forgetting that I was about to be in some shit, the door opened. She looked at me I looked at her "I'm so dead!" I mentally screamed "Honey, you still haven't packed?"

What?

Ok, I was more expecting a "WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE" or something like that but now I'm very confused.

"Hurry up and pack Y/N we have a long drive, and we need to get on the road" she spoke sweetly but sternly. She exited my room and left me there looking stupid. Y/n? My name's Jay! I sprung from the bed and looked for the nearest anything that could help me look at myself

Looking around I found what looked like my phone. I picked it up and turned it on hoping to use the camera app to look at myself but the first thing that popped up was a white screen that said please type in your name. "Maybe it's a new phone, I'm going to make it something stupid"

So, I typed in the best possible name Chris Cross. "Oh, yea top tier name picks" I giggled to myself at my own terrible humor, but I finished setting up the phone. "Chris, you almost done up there!" yelled the assumed women I met a few moments ago." In a minute!" I yelled back

Holy shit this dude's name is actual Chris how ironic... wait a minute. And like that it hit me who is that lady and who is Chris- I just realized something I'm narrating my own thoughts. I never do that, nobody does that! I need to test something "U-uh Mom!"

"... Yes Chris?"

"Actually, never mind I found what was looking for"

Oh Shit... I opened my phone and opened the camera and put it in selfie mode. I looked at the screen and what I saw was a sixteen-year-old boy "I've gone crazy..." and that's when I all kicked in waking up in a strange room, a lady who I have never met and responds to mom, the phone needing me to put in my name, that last one could still be summed up as it's a new phone but it's too, but it adds dramatic effect, Narrating my own thoughts! Oh, and the small tad bit that I'm a teenager again! It like I'm in some kind of light novel... oh god no.

"Chris, we need to go!"

Right let's pack that bag of stuff that's not mine and go see what "mom: wants.

Ok so while I was packing, I found some cool shit, PS8, hover skates, shit that looks like it's from the future. But the best thing a shit tone of manga! I mean sense I'm technical Chris I can just take these. Now that I think about it where am I going that requires this much pack, I have like 9 bags of stuff. Guess I'll find out in a couple minutes

So, uh I found out that where in Florida simply because it my home state and despite it being years in the future, I can still recognize Orlando city. And the fact there's Disney world billboards everywhere. "So, mom where exactly are we going?" I asked looking out the window

"Come on now that's a silly question" she giggled. Ya I should have guessed I wasn't getting a straight answer I'm supposed to know already. The car drive continued in silence and the trees outside were oddly satisfying.

As we were driving, I spotted a billboard that caught my attention "Omniums rights, we matter too. Hmmm" Omniums where have I heard that before pushing that in the back of my mind, we were still 2 hours from Miami I put in some headsets and closed my eyes.

When I woke up, we were by the port in my Mami if I wasn't confused before I sure as hell was now. I wanted to ask mom why we were here but. She was already at the trunk of the car pulling out my luggage." Maybe it's a cruise" I thought hopefully.

We finished grabbing my stuff and walked out towards the boats out on the water. "so mom you ready for the cruise" I stated hoping that I was on the mark "Cruise? Oh, you're so silly Chris" she giggled wait we're not going on a cruise?

"Ok let's say I forgot why where here so you can remind me" she looked at me and rolled her eyes probably thinking this is some kind of game." Alright well mister you were accepted to go to the best boarding school on the planet, Overwatch Academy, and sense it on a remote island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean we need to get you to the dock" She smirked at my little game, and I tried so hard to laugh and smile but on the inside just pure chaos was going on.

"Overwatch Academy! What the actual hell OVERWATCH LIKE THE GAME!" screamed a blue Chibi version of myself "No she means the watch company-OF COURSE SHE MEAN THE GAMES!" Yelled a cute but mad red Chibi me. "Ok, bye sweety" she waved and slowly started get further.

"Oh, shit I was so caught up in my head I forgot to make an escape... welp no way out now pray to go this goes without problems" I was particularly begging god hoping that this would be my only problem.

"4 Hours later"

"I've been on this stupid boat for hours!" And truth be told it wouldn't be all that bad if it wasn't for the fact that I'm the only person on the boat. Well minus the robots that are on here but there like Irl Npc's and just repeat the same thing. However, I did do some reading on where I was heading.

"Blizzard Island, huh, I wonder if this place also battled legal problems with sexual conduct in the workplace." Jokes aside, the island has housing for the students, activities around the island, and events throughout the island depending on the year. And work opportunities for those looking for specific careers.

" we will be docking at BLIZZARD ISLAND PORT In exactly 20 MINUTES, Have a nice day!" the Omnium spoke switching in tones the scooting off. "Nice to know... I don't think I'll ever get used to that."

After 20 minutes of waiting, we reached the Dock, and my first impression of this place was "This place smells like a cheesy ass anime and it's a smelly ass cheese." I glared at the island Infront of me it was kind of small front and center was the academy self not to impressive a whole lot of blue. To my left were housing apartments, not bad, and to the right is what looked like a general area, and this was most definitely the biggest part of the island since it took up 50 percent of it.

"...Where do I go?" I was genuinely confused. "Thats what I trying to find out man" I turned to the voice and next to me was a young black male 5.3 in height he was a young black male he had green tented aviator glasses and thick dreads tied into a heigh ponytail. He had some beard stubs and a shirt with the Rio flag on it and some cargo pants with flip flops to complete his look. He had a pair of yellow headsets around his neck.

"Sup names Lúcio Correia dos Santos" he held out his hand and I took it. "Chris Cross, it's a pleasure" he looked at me and gave me a side eye and smirk.

"Chris Cross? Is that a joke?" "Unfortunately, not" and with that response he broke into a small laugh. "Hey, watch it you know how the rhyme goes!"

"Oh, do Share" he teased. "Haven't you heard? Chris Cross applesauce, image what I could do to you!" I answered humorously but with a slight smug tone. "How long did it take you to come up with that?" he asked, "Longer than I'm willing to admit." We both laughed.

"So have any idea where going?" I asked. "Nope" he popped the P with that and now we were standing there. "We could try the school?" I suggested "Good idea Double C!"

"Double C?" I raised an eyebrow at him he laughed. "What don't like it?" "More like I was expecting it" he shrugged his shoulder "what I heard it's nice to give friends nicknames so I thought I'd give it a try" I put my hands on my hips and lead back a bit.

"Friends, you move pretty fast there Lucio" "You think that's fast you should see me on skates" we both laughed as we made our way to the school.

"Wow not even two minutes in and I've already met a overwatch character" we got to the building and Lucio opened the door for me. We walked in and we were met with a sight the building was three stories high with hallways leading to different parts of the building in the center was a fountain with a holographic image of the Overwatch symbol but it was blue and grey instead of orange and grey.

There were a ton of students around a lot of no names, but I also say some well named hero's I spotted Genji and Hanzo together. Mercy or Angela Ziegler if I'm correct. She was by her lonesome, but it looked like she was reading a book. And I thought I saw Junkrat but uh it was hard to tell since the person Infront of me looked well normal. The only reason I could somewhat tell it was him was because of the hair. He was looking at his phone but looked up when a big person approached him.

"Oh, that has to be Roadhog!" Yea he was on the heavier side he had his hair in a bun with his black hair having white streaks along the side and plus he had a hoodie with a pig on it.

"Honestly I thought there'd be more people" Lucio commented from my side. "Meh, I mean it's not like they just let anyone into this place." He nodded in agreement, and we walked further into the building. And found a table with a sign student sign in. "well looks like we found it" Lucio spoke up.

"Huh thought it would be harder." We walked up to the table and I a familiar face. Ana Amari the mother Pharah. She did look as old as her in game counterpart, but she wasn't far off plus she had both eyes." ah more new students tell me your names so I can get you your things"

"Lúcio Correia dos Santos." "Christopher Ed Cross" she nodded, and she looked through a box the pulled out two packets "In here are your schedules, basic supplies, dorm room number and keys and one uniform. More uniforms with be sent to your dorms along with other things, classes start tomorrow." She handed us the packs and we started walking towards the dorms.

"Can you believe this. We're literally at the best academy on the planet. It's located on a remote island, and we get out of our own living space. Pretty damn cool." Lucio spoke with some form of excitement. "Ya, if you were in my shoes, you wouldn't believe how unbelievable this is." I chuckled.

We entered the building leading to our dorm rooms and stepped in the elevator "alright I'm at 423" Lucio committed. "511, looks like where on different floors" I replied. "Darn I was hoping we could be neighbors." she snapped his fingers in disappointment. "Eh beggars can't be choicer." The elevator dinged and Lucio stepped out. "I'll see you tomorrow" he gave me a two-finger salute and walked down the hall as the elevator door closed.

The elevator door opened again, and I stepped out. Walking down the hall I was looking for from my dorm. "Ah, here it is" I opened the door and just wow this place wasn't a dorm it might as well be a high rise sweet. Well-furnished, the kitchen was gorgeous, and the bedroom was a huge king-size bed who needs all that bed for one person. "Welp time to start unpacking."

And well I do what most people do while saying they're going to start something; they start to get distracted and forget they were doing the other thing. "So, no game no life did get a second session! OH HO it's about to be a good night!" it was 12 when I decided to stop watching and head to bed, I took a shower and got into my sleep wear. "My first night of my new life. Ain't that some shit." I close my eyes and begin to drift off.

Then BOOM BOOM BOOM my eyes fly open. "Really who plays music this loud this late." I groan and get out of bed. I exit my room and walk next door and knock on my new neighbor's door.

"Cheers love! Great night isn't it!" ah yes Lena Oxton or Overwatches' poster girl Tracer. She looked younger but not to different she was about 5'4 and wearing a tank top and so shorts and "Yea its kind of late mine turning down the music." I asked nicely "Sure thing, so sorry about that" she said cheerfully.

"Babe who is it?" Walking to the door was her girlfriend Emily she was about the same height as tracer she was a ginger and was wearing a sweater with pajama pants. "Just the neighbor."

Emily moves Lena out of the way and greets me "Oh, hello my name's Emily, how can I help you." she asked "Oh nothing much I'm just asked if the music can be turned down, you know just try to catch some Z's" I asked again.

"For sure so sorry" She apologized. "No problem good night" I turned away. "Ah wait love we did catch your name?" she asked. I stopped and looked over my shoulder. "Christopher but you can just call me Chris." I walked back into my room face planted in my bed and went to sleep.
