More than DDR

Chapter 1

Flashing lights and electronic sounds filled the air as a boy walked into the arcade. He searched around for a while but then he found what he was looking for. He ran over to the machine and inserted a dollar. Four tokens exited the machine and he took them one by one. He then ran over to the DRR machine, looking at the novice trying to hit the arrows with his feet. In about 5 seconds, the kid was off the machine, embarrassed by the loss.

"Nice going, noob," said the boy, now entering the machine/

"Shut up, Pent!" said the other boy, now extremely red.

Pent put the tokens in the slot and went through the selection screen.

"Yes, single player….. Heavy……. Finnally!" exclaimed Pent, now starting "A."

He heard the beginning of the song, but something was wrong… very wrong. Everything fell silent, the machine, the people, and everything started to turn black, except the screen. The unicorn of the music video had faded and now a man's face stared at him.

"Hello, Pent," he said.

"What the hell are you doing! Am I on a hidden camara show?" yelled Pent, freaking out.

"You have certain skills that we need. We'll see if you're the one at a tournament. It will start in 30 minutes. You will see signs that lead to the arena, whether you choose to follow them will be your choice…"

Just as mysteriously as he came, he faded and the game restarted. Pent looked at the screen and he saw the letter, "E." He had lost the game and he was never more confused in his life.
