Chapter 3

Fayan got up on his bed. He scratched his head. He doesn't have the slightest clue about his dream. He recalled his dream again and again. Trying to figure out what was going on.

"Fayan, how long will you sleep? Your breakfast is getting cold. COME QUICKLY!" Fayan's mother called him.
" COMINGGG!" Fayan shouted as he drove his thoughts about his dream from his mind.

He freshened up and went to the dining room. After having his breakfast, he went to the living room. It was a holiday so his father was home. He sat next to his father . His father was watching TV. Again the Fayan remembered his dream. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stop thinking about his dream. Thinking about his dream, several questions came to his mind.

"Why did the future me appeared in my dream? Why was he holding that peculiar gun? What did he mean by getting rid of my softness?" Fayan thought to himself.

The more he thought the more it got complicated. After thinking for a while he tried to give up his thought. He looked at the TV screen to distract his mind. It was a regular programme. His father always watches it when he is at home. Fayan doesn't like this programme. Yet he is watching so that he can forget about his watching for a while, all of a sudden the TV screen turned black.

"What happened?" his father said impatiently.
"Beats me," Fayan answered.
"The interesting part was going on. I can't afford to miss it," his father cried.
Fayan laughed in the reply.

His father grew more impatient. Suddenly the screen changed again. But that programme wasn't going on. It was a weird programme. The TV screen displayed a room with a table in front of a chair. The room seemed familiar to Fayan. He tried to recall where he saw that. Suddenly his heart throbbed as he remembered where he saw that room. It was... It was the room where he met his future self. yes. Exactly the same room of his dream. The same table and chair. The only difference was the lights that were flickering from underneath the transparent tiles. It was neon orange instead of neon green. That's why Fayan wasn't able to recognize it right away.

"WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SHOW?" his father said being irritated.
"It couldn't possibly finish within such a short time. And this isn't the channel in which the programme was going on," Fayan's father added as he searched for the remote and switched the channel.

Fayan was going to stop his father but his already had switched the channel. But to his surprise, that channel was also showing the same programme. His father changed the channel again. That channel also showed the same thing.

"STOP,dad. Let's watch what's happening here and I don't think there's any use of switching the channels," Fayan said.
"What could possibly happen? Why the same programme is being shown in all the channels?" his father said desperately.
"I think we'll get that answer when we watch it," Fayan said in a serious tone. He was puzzled too. Just like his father.

Fayan carefully looked at the TV. He suddenly saw that the chair's back was faced towards the TV screen. After a while he understood that someone was sitting in the chair. As the chair was facing it's back, the person's body wasn't seen in the screen.

"Is this my future self again?" Fayan thought to himself. Suddenly the person started speaking,

"Right now all the people in the world is watching this show," the person said. The voice was completely unfamiliar to Fayan. So he removed the doubt of that person being his future self from his mind. The person continued,
"Some people may try to switch the channel. But there's no use cause I made this programme in such a way that it is being broadcasted in every channels in the world. And other preparations are made so that the ones those who are not watching TV can get all the news about this programme," the person stopped for a while to take a breathe after saying this long sentence. Then he again continued,

"Let's skip all these and come back to business," he said.
"I came here to tell the world that many things are going to change for many people. I am conducting a survival game which is going to start from tomorrow. It's a life and death game between green and red," he again took a short breathe and continued,
"I will now give a brief description about this game."
" As I said it is a game between green and red. Question may arise what is red and green. Green and red are the players in this survival game. Half of the players participating in this game or rather I should say half of the players who are made to participate in this game will be given green marked guns and they will be the green players in this game and the other half will be given red marked guns and they will be the red players in this game..." The person again stopped.
"Now I'll say which people will be given the guns."
"The people who met their future selves in their dreams today, will be given the guns."

Fayan's eyes widened as he heard those words.

"How did he know about the dream?" he wondered.

The man again continued ,

"Well it may sound a weird but the truth is I made the dreams. But the things that your future selves told you was not made by me. They were real. I only connected your future selves to you in your dreams." he added .

"Can anyone do that?" Fanny said in a puzzled man again went on with his long speech,

"The color of the floor of the room in the rooms was set according to the personalities. If the personality of one is good, the lights coming from the floor will be green and the person will be given the green marked gun and if the personality of one is evil then the lights will be red and the person will be given red marked gun. The color will be darker or lighter. Such as if the personality of a person is slightly evil, then the person will get light-red colored gun and the color will get deeper according to the personality. Color of the gun can also switch from red to green or green to red according to the activities of the player. About the guns, they have very unique powers. No guns are same. The game will commence from tomorrow . The last one standing will be the winner whether he is green or red. And before I end my speech, there is one more thing I need to say. The name of this game will be the"GUN GAME". There will be 1 billion players across the world. And from today a new channel will be added named the Gun Game. It will broadcast many fights between green and red, all the news about the game and many other thing. I suppose I should end my speech. Good-Luck to all players. Good-bye."

The screen turned black again. Fayan stared at the black screen. His mind was puzzled and shocked that he remained silent for a while.

"Let's check if there's any channel named gun game," his father broke the silence.

He switched the channels and indeed he found a new channel named "The GUN GAME" . The channel showed the number of players. There was a headline where the description of the game was displayed and there was another bar which displayed another news saying that this channel will be divided into many more channel. Each country will have their own channels. If the country is big, then it will have more than one channel which will display only the news of that respective country. The main channel the will display the main news of the game, top fights between the green and red across the whole world.

Fayan's mind was already dizzy. He couldn't take anymore. He went straight to his room.
