(Author's Note)

Hey guys, 0n3dgeGaming here and I don't have anything to say today.

Onto reviews!

To Remited: at the time of thinking of a title for the chapter, my cat Jonah was on the hoodie that I had recently taken off. So that's why. But I like your idea better.

Onto the story!

(Play At Doom's Gate (E1M1 Doom Metal remix) [youtube would be a good place])

I looked up, grabbing a shotgun that looks like it had been left to rust, however was only recently discarded. I started running ahead, my Visor coming online.

The door in front of me opened up, I jumped over the railing and landed. The bottom of my Visor saying something about landing compensation.

I looked up, a large amount of monster spawns greeted my gaze.

I pumped my shotgun in anticipation, before smirking.

"Bring it!" I said, clambering up to a higher vantage point.

I fired the shotgun at one of the mobs, before jumping down and crushing its head beneath my foot.

I turned to my right and fired upon 3 Dogoo men or whatever they're called.

I flipped over one of those… Otaku enemy types before punching a hole I'm the mob

I turned to see a guard vermin swinging its weapon at me. I jumped back, however I wasn't paying attention to the area around me and backed myself into a wall.

I looked up to see the mob grab me, before ripping off my arms and punching me in the face.

[Game Over]

[Simulation Failed]

"Fffffff********..." I began, pulling the VR headset off my head.

"I thought you said you were good at this?" said G1, smirking.

"You try going from Controller to VR and try to beat one of the hardest missions on Nightmare difficulty." I said, letting gravity help me fall onto the nearby chair.

"Though I must say, that was some good shooting." said Vert, who had been testing out some new VR setup Leanbox had been working on.

"Thanks, but I AM better with my controller." I said.

"Only because it happens to be that Xbox one elite thing." said G1.

"Whatever…"

So when me and Tamazaki returned to Planeptune, G1 had asked me to come with him to Leanbox. Apparently Vert was… 'interested' with seeing us.

She had also asked if we could help her with this new VR setup she was trying out.

And if you must know, the game we were using was gamindustry's version of DOOM, the new one that came out on Friday. Which was also cleverly titled: CATACLYSM.

Did I also mention the new VR setup Vert has is basically the Hololens.

I looked around the room, my 'Roommate' deciding to chirp in.

'Wow… this place is a mess.' said Wade.

"Tell me about it…" I said.

"Jesus Bryce… Don't you know like… ANY self control?" asked G1.

"This coming from the guy who played a game of pool with a bullet loaded in his gun as his pool cue." I said.

"At least I don't name mine." shot back G1.

"But I WAS right wasn't I?"

"How exactly was Bryce right?" asked Vert.

"I call it DOOM." I said. "Because references."

"Anyways, thanks for the help." said Vert.

"No problem… hey, uh… Where's Ultra Vert?" G1 asked.

"She's with Chica at the nearby spa." said Vert.

"Come on… If we don't leave now… Plutia may get pissed." I said.

"Yeah yeah… thanks for inviting us and… sorry about your room." said G1.

"It's fine."

"Bye!" I said, exiting the building, however not before seeing a light in Vert's room spark.

'We should REALLY have declined testing it out…'

'And waste the opportunity to make an obligatory DOOM reference? I think not!'

"Whatever, let's go. The author has run out of ideas to further the plot unless we do a line break." I said.

"So that was our day, what strange adventures did YOU find yourself in?" asked G1.

Tamazaki and Tehg just looked at us before saying in unision.

"You don't want to know."

'Well then… now I'm curious.' said Wade.

"What… happened?" I asked.

Tehg sighed.

"We may or may not of pissed off Plutia. And I faintly remember a lot of blood being lost." said Tehg.

"It's Iris Heart…" I said.

"Before she had her 'fun'."

I facepalmed at the stupidity that was nosebleeds.

Oh yeah, did I mention that a few of us got nose bleed hair triggers? I was lucky enough to get out of it… not sure about the others.

This confirms that one of us has a hair trigger.

"Anyways…" said Tamazaki. "Anyone have any ideas to quell our our boredom?"

*BOOM!*

"Speak of the devil and the author gives us a plot device…" said Tehg.

I rushed outside the basilicom to see civilians running, monsters were roaming, and in the Centre was a woman that looked like she was almost at that point of 'I'm getting wrinkles.'

"What the hell!?" exclaimed G1.

"G1, I need you to protect the civilians, get them as far away from here as possible. Tehg, you clear out those mobs, you have access to your DGU form right?" I asked Tehg.

"Yeah…"

"Then use it. Me and Tamazaki will take her." I said.

"And…. BREAK!" I exclaimed, each of us going to our specified target.

Me and Tamazaki looked at the woman. She was laughing maniacally.

She stopped when she heard us. She turned to look at us and just squinted.

"So… I'm being challenged by kids? Where's your goddesses?" she asked.

"Well… she isn't Arfoire." I said.

"She's about as old though…" said Tamazaki.

"What!?" The woman exclaimed in rage.

"Whatever, who the hell are you!?" I asked.

"I guess introductions will be necessary… I am Uhrevia and I will be the orchestrator of your doom." she said.

"...THAT was the best you could come up with?" I asked.

"Whatever, you can go die now!" she said as Tamazaki tackled me out of the way of a giant metal fist.

A mech stood there, allowing Uhrevia to climb up it.

"Well then… this just went from zero to a hundred…" said Tamazaki.

'Look at the size of that thing!'

'That's what she said!'

"Was that comment really necessary?" I asked.

"Bryce, MOVE!" Tamazaki yelled.

"Huh? GAH-!"

I felt the impact of the hit and flew into the basilicom window.

*CRASH*

'I'd give that a 10 for style points.'

"Bryce?" asked Plutia walking over.

"Oh hey man. What are you doing lying around?" asked Neptune.

"Mech… pain… city… crazy b*tch…" I got out.

"But Plutia is still…." Began Neptune before shutting up.

"Tamazaki… his own… Ow the pain… painkillers… helpful right now…" I said.

"We'll help T, you just… lie down for a bit." said Neptune, transforming and flying to the battle.

"You…. Hate…" I said, before I felt myself get healed.

"I got you Bry-Bry!" said Compa.

"Please stop calling me that…" I said, sighing.

I looked to my right to see something I didn't expect to see.

'Nepgear… you are a beautiful son of a B*tch."

Tamazaki was having trouble with the mech, his APL form was somewhat helping…

The mech punched Tamazaki into a building, the distant sound of Tamazaki screaming "FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU!" Could be heard from the stratusphear.

"T! You okay?" asked Purple Heart.

"What's it look like!?" he exclaimed in pain.

"This is just pathetic… I'd thought I'd get some challenge from this. Even with the likes of an APL on your side which shouldn't exist at all, your all still bad." said Uhrevia.

"Someone left me out…"

"Huh?"

Proceed, Boot to face. Action complete.

What that was my dear readers was what happens when I need to cushion my fall. Land on someone's face.

My foot connected to Uhrevia face and sent her off the mech.

I landed on the ground, the light reflecting off the armour I was now wearing. I looked up at Uhrevia and smirked.

"All right then… Come and have a go, If you think your hard enough."

Stay tuned for the part two, coming sometime!

Until then!
