Game on
Chapter Three: Skills and Collectibles
The sounds of people chatting and running at the same time filled the corridor as Tucker looked dumbfounded at his school, the geek never imagined waltzing into Casper High of his own volition but his curiosity took the better of him as he searched for more collectibles and his next mission, nevertheless, the school icon caught his attention the most, the last place he thought to ever be at willingly but his inner gamer told him that such places were very common in games for improving skills.
"This is Casper high school; you can learn new abilities and improve your skill set in the various classes." The magic text log read as it suddenly appeared in front of Tucker not a moment after he set foot on school grounds. "You can improve your hacking skill at the school's computer lab, become stronger and learn new skills at the gym and create new weapons at the chemistry lab."- the teen finished reading before letting go of a long and tired sigh.
Tucker was admittedly rather surprised to see the amount of effort put in by the game designer, ranging from the same colors and graffiti down to the cracks on the floor and overused chairs. Even with a large number of students roaming around, it was hard to tell apart days or seasons as no one was attending class and the teachers simply stood by the door smoking or drinking coffee without much care in the world, calendars were no better as they were gibberish and school events had no dates. As far as Tucker knew it might as well be summer vacation despite having a full house.
"What's up, bitch?!"- Tucker yelled out to his chemistry teacher as he walked past but the man didn't even give the boy a sideways glance.
Despite being a student, the techno-geek still felt out of place as he could hardly recognize anyone, most had generic faces with different skin tones and hair colors, especially among the male population, though there were no complaints about the A-lister girls who had remake similar to Sam and Paulina going from flat boards to busty girls with faces that could rival a model along with dressing like complete sluts. Even though Tucker considers himself the intellectual type still found himself going to the gym as he was well aware there would be more fighting and needed strength.
It was then that Tucker noticed a glowing exclamation mark on his mini-map that guided him to a small orange hair boy standing next to the cheerleader's locker room, surely another mission but the lack of a capital letter told him it had to be a side mission. The teen knew there was a high possibility of obtaining great rewards such as better armor, weapons, and other much-needed trinkets that could only be obtained through side quests.
"What's up, Tucker?"- the orange hair boy said as Tucker came closer.
"Mikey… right?"- Tucker asked. He knew the boy, though only by name and sight as he never interacted with him beyond a few words.
"Wanna make some quick cash? I know a guy that knows a guy that knows a guy who's buying girl's underwear."- Mikey offered and made Tucker cringe at the offer.
Nevertheless, his inner game forced him to accept as he recalled retro games such as Ghost Thief Auto where he spent countless hours running around in an ambulance just to faster when running around or hunting down criminals in a squad car to get more armor and he would never forget the mind-numbing pizza missions that granted him double health. There were often more rewards for completing side missions than completing the main quest.
"Fine, let's do this." Tucker accepted the mission, though his inner perv was admittedly eager to break into the cheerleader's locker room.
"I'll keep the teachers distracted while you collect the goods."- Mikey said as he stood firm in his place.
Even now after seeing Sam having sex with the despicable Dash Baxter and witnessing firsthand how Paulina and her lapdog participated in an orgy, Tucker still felt a tingly sensation at the tip of his fingers, and a hollow forming at the pit of his stomach as both knees becoming weaker. The teen then took several deep breaths as he "discreetly" shoved the door open, one thing he noticed throughout his experience was that the door handles were just for decoration.
The first thing Tucker noticed upon entering was the pink tiles and white floor that gave it a cute appearance followed by matching lockers and a large mirror on the left wall, more interesting was the condom dispenser which he was sure didn't exist in the real-world locker room. There were also several posters promoting safe sex and a few others with the letter "Q" which Tucker didn't know the meaning of.
"Collect all the pieces of underwear in less than five minutes and escape."- The text log suddenly appeared instructing Tucker on what to do.
It was then that floating arrows appeared scattered all over the locker room, a few were pointing at the lockers themselves, the gamer smiled as he noticed the arrows came in a set of three colors, red, green, and pink, he knew what these colors meant. A five-minute counter appeared followed by a "panty counter" which forced Tucker to run around collecting as many pieces as he could while doing his best to avoid the red arrow undies, the geek quickly noticed the red arrows aimed at "granny underwear" The baggy type while the green arrows aimed at the more girlish undies, the kind with frills and cute stamps, but the pink arrows aimed at the treasure trove, thongs, booty panties and crotchless.
The teen then punched the lockers a few times, breaking the doors, something that he wouldn't be able to do in the real world without breaking his hands. Half a dozen thongs came flying out as a reward, a most welcome sight considering the fifty-piece limited, Tucker didn't have space to waste. Two more lockers came down making him feel like a hardcore pervert for taking such extreme measures just to get girl's underwear. All of the items vanished as he walked over them making collection much easier.
"That's what I'm talking about, baby. All fifty and with a whole minute to spare."- Tucker declared as he lifted his arms in defiance upon seeing the timer stopped.
The shower room door suddenly opened startling the teenager who saw the gym teacher, Ms. Tetslaff walking out bearing an intimidating expression. Tucker hoped for a sexy remake similar to the other girls, and though the woman had a remake it wasn't what he would consider alluring or attractive, the teacher was taller and with a wider back that sowed great musculature, a square jaw, and bigger biceps, followed by a boyish haircut that didn't improve her appearance, Tucker was sure she was much more muscular than what he remembers.
"Escape! Get to the chess club at once!"- Tucker read the text log that suddenly appeared before him, the teen was getting used to seeing the instructions coming out of nowhere by now, it was then that a large box fell on his hands.
"Pervert!"- the teacher roared as she charges after Tucker who shrieked.

Tucker ran out the door and into the hallway as his gym teacher rushed behind him growling like an animal, the chase was so sudden that Tucker could barely make heads or tails as to where to go making him crash several times against the students allowing for the massive woman to tackle him to the ground, the teen tried to block off her attacks but she pummeled him like crazy until everything went dark.
The boy blinked a couple of times before realizing he was back at the locker room entrance, box in hand followed by the deafening war cry of his teacher, there was no time to think, and despite feeling an excruciating amount of pain due to the brutal beating he got just a few seconds prior started to run as fast as his legs could carry him, encourage mainly by the promise of another beating. Now that Tucker was focused on the path before him, he quickly realized the hallway was much longer than what he remembered, though strangely the students acted more as obstacles than people.
"Get out of the way!"- Tucker screamed as he ran down the hallway as his teacher chased close behind.
The frightful woman tossed students and even teachers to the side as she continued chasing after Tucker who ran as fast as his legs could carry him, the teen dodged his peers as best he could, knowing all too well that pumping into one could mean his demise. The geek knew teachers were scary in their own right but Miss Tetslaff was a real beast, Tucker wanted to use his crossbow on the woman to escape but that meant dropping the box.
Tucker couldn't help but be reminded of the cellphone games where his player had to run down the lane dodging enemies but soon his eyes were filled with joy as he saw the chess club room at the far end of the hallway, and Miss Tetslaff slowly becoming a dot in the distance. The geek dropped the box in front of Mikey who smiled long and wide just a second after barging into the clubroom.
"Excellent work, Tucker."- Mikey congratulated the teen. "An excellent booty."- the boy added showing his bucked teeth while he and his friends ravaged through the box.
Tucker sighed as he felt like a pervert for having broken into the girl's locker room to steal their underwear and being chased down by the gym teacher while protecting the stolen goods. Nevertheless, his woes subsided upon seeing the text log announcing the end of the mission along with his rewards, the first thing he saw was a score telling him the number of panties he stole and their worth which amounted to a decent amount, unfortunately, there wasn't much he could spend it on considering everything was mostly painted on the background and the stores he could buy from only sold him the bare minimum, not even the essentials.
"Maybe I could get some new treads, man, the things I would do for some firepower."- Tucker muttered as he saw the money going into his account. "Maybe you should have spent this here money on the club." the teen added as he looked around the room noticing the lack of articles and other essentials, yet they spent a large sum of cash on used underwear.
The geek then stepped out of the clubroom and looked upon his mini-map that now shows the school's inner layout, after a short exploration came to discover the chemistry lab was close, but Tucker's main objective was the gym. He needed more strength and combat prowess if he wanted to survive the game, Tucker looked around the gym, there wasn't much to see in the real world but in the game version there were some weights, a few treadmills, and a ring, more important, were the few girls working out in literal bikinis that left nothing to the imagination, just a few strings in the school's color, the geek gulped down as he stared at the girls' bare butts.
Tucker's blood suddenly froze as he laid eyes over none other than Miss Tetslaff who despite having chased him throughout the hallways with murderous intent didn't seem to recognize him. The woman stood next to the ring with an interrogation symbol floating over her head, the word "train" just underneath. A hundred dollars vanished from his account once Tucker accepted to engage in the school's gym activities, the teen smiled at the muscular woman who earlier tried to murder him and now demanded him to head to the dumbbells, they were large and very heavy looking but even so, Tucker managed to lift them with some difficulty as his teacher ordered to continue.
Every second Tucker spent training with the gym teacher felt like agony as he feared she might suddenly recognize him and attack him for stealing the girl's underwear rather than for failing the routine, nevertheless, the woman did no such thing and acted as if it were the first time, they ever saw each other. Her commands were harsh but encouraging, the teen barely felt tired from the strenuous workout routine, something that in the real world would have left him barely moving on the ground. Miss Tetslaff headed back to the ring, to her original position.
There was no way of knowing how much of this so-called training he would need in the long run, Tucker had often spent long hours grinding his character in different games, perfecting his melee prowess only to discover that he would depend solely on range weapons or stealth, more frustrating was discovering the complete opposite, such as finding a firearm and discover that his fist causes more damage than a shotgun blast to face.
"My life is on the line here so better safe than sorry."- the teen said to himself. Five hundred dollars suddenly vanished from his account once he accepted to be trained in the ring.
"Get on the ring!"- The teacher ordered as she took a large bite of a sandwich. "Nothing smart here, just punch and dodge.". Tetslaff demonstrated the classic one-two boxing combo.
Perhaps it was just the game's mechanics or Tucker's growing skills but he managed to replicate the movements with fair ease, though on the other hand, he had to thank mister Jack Fenton for teaching him the basics which so far had kept him alive. Not something that Tucker's dad like at all as teaching self-defense is by tradition thought from father to son mainly as a bonding moment.
"I think I'm getting the hang of this."- Tucker said as his teacher got into a new position.
"Just grab them by the hair and punch hard."- the muscular woman then grabbed a nearby boy by the hair and proceeded to strike him in the face ending the attack with a knee to the face making Tucker cringe. A boy his size appeared from nowhere scaring Tucker, the boy sighed as he followed his teacher's example and pummeled his peer. "Just hit them on the ground."- the woman continued as she punched her student laying on the floor.
"Damn, this bitch would be fired and jailed if she ever did that in the real world."- Tucker exclaimed as he walked out of the gym. "New skill acquired, street boxing… no shit."- Tucker read the text log that appeared before him still wondering how useful it would be in the long run, he was sure to find firearms eventually.

It was then that his eyes focused once more on the girl's shower room, he knew that his best friend Danny had ventured in several times and even convinced him to take a few pictures but had never once been inside. Seeing a picture and being inside were two very different concepts, Tucker looked around taking notice of a large number of students still lurking around despite the hour, already past three o'clock.
With a deep breath and knowing that no one would challenge him, Tucker ventured once more inside the girl's locker room. The teen suddenly froze as he stared at over a dozen half-naked girls, a few walking aimlessly while others stood in front of the lockers that Tucker had broken earlier and yet were completely repaired, the teen could recognize a few of the girls though couldn't recall their names, it was paradise.
"I think you're in the wrong place."- A naked blonde hair girl with modest breasts said making Tucker turn pale as a sheet but she quickly walked away without starting any fuzz.
Not of the present bothered giving Tucker a side saved for a random comment about him not belonging in the girl's locker room, Tucker muster up his courage and barged through the door leading into the shower room. He knew something was wrong from the get-go, the shower room was vast and far too elegant for anything Casper High could afford, the tiles were color pink with large mirrors followed by impressive steaming bathtubs that could easily fit a dozen or more girls at the same time.
Girls were showering around a column that had sprinklers all around while a few others paraded naked around making Tucker gulp down, to the far left could see several massage chairs being used by the female students who didn't bother getting dressed. Tucker could feel his pants becoming tighter by the second, had he barged into the shower room in the real world, there would have been an array of screaming and cursing.
"It's now or never."- Tucker then used his tablet to remove all his clothing leaving him buck naked and surrounded by naked girls.
The geek had this dream many times in the past but never imagine living it even though it was through a ghost's magic game, he was still figuring out the details. Tucker couldn't care any less at the moment, all his suffering was being rewarded just by standing amidst dozens of naked girls. The delicate fragrance of soap caressed his nose as steam did the same to his skin, he was eager to touch but fear and decency stopped him from acting, a huge flaw all things considered.
"You either must be crazy or supremely confident to be walking around with no clothes on."- A brunet with large breasts and a round butt said scanning Tucker from head to toe.
"You got no clothes, you should get some."- another far more modest girl added.
The girls behave as if Tucker was the only one naked and yet, didn't scream or act out as would normally be the case, this made the teen feel exceptionally pleased as the game was finally playing in his favor. It was then that Tucker approached a busty teenager showing by the right wall, her curvy figure and large backside were most alluring, the girl didn't seem to mind Tucker's presence at all as she continue with her shower.
With a deep breath and getting ready to sprint away if the need arose, Tucker grabbed the girl's butt, it was far softer than anything he had ever touched other than Sam's ass, her skin felt warm and real, it didn't matter if she was just a bunch of data in some supercomputer. His hands then moved up her belly to her breast, the girl had yet to grow proper nipples, and seeing her lack of reaction prompted Tucker to be even more daring.
Holding her left breast tightly, he moved his right hand between the girl's legs feeling her cunt. Tucker gasped as he felt the soft pussy, he had seen hundreds in his computer and even saw Sam, Paulina, and her lapdog getting fucked hard but this was the first time that he ever managed to touch a vagina. There was no manner for him to describe the sensation running through his fingers as he shoved them inside.
"No! This is wrong! On the other hand, they're nothing more than data… so… it's not wrong…"- Tucker debated as he stared at his erect manhood.
Everything taking place within the game world went against every single moral code in his being, helping Dash sleep with Sam just to bully Danny and later on escorting Paulina to meet up with her sugar daddy at a hotel. Just recalling how Dash was bouncing his hips on Sam made Tucker most horny and casting away all doubts that were left in his mind, he looked around for what he considered the best girl in the shower room.
Tucker's eyes landed on the only girl whose name he could remember, Ashley, a voluptuous dark skin girl with long curly hair and green eyes which were not exactly a rarity among Amity Park's population as there was an unusual number of people with green eyes including himself. Tucker didn't recall the girl having melon size breasts or thick legs, nevertheless, Ashely was perfect for him, just the right amount of meat. It was then that the geek forced Ashely to bend over with a little resistance on her part, but hardly enough to stop him, yet the girl continued talking like normal to her friend, a tall girl with long brown hair, she was next on Tucker's to-do list.
"You gotta cover your…unmentionables." The tall skinny girl said scaring Tucker for a brief moment.
The geek then refocused on his hard dick, he noticed something was wrong, even at full mast he seemed to be much smaller than his real-life counterpart, surely another cruel prank on the game master's side, but that wasn't going to stop him, it's not the size the count but what you can do with it after all, and not when had gone so far. Tucker could feel his heart racing a million miles per hour as he stares at the bend-over girl, he wasn't committing a crime as she was not real and hadn't said no.
"It's now or never!"- Tucker sway his hips as hard as he could. "I'm gonna make you clap with your ass." He added but something was wrong.
Even with his new much smaller size, he was more than sure he could feel something other than Ashely's soft butt, Tucker's face turned pale as he looked down and saw his dick had gone limp, ironically, it was bigger when flaccid something that he didn't appreciate in the least. The boy then started to jerk off to get it standing up as it had been for the last twenty minutes.
"Did you see Dash's new car?"- Ashely said without caring for the cum that fell on her back and was swiftly washed away.
(XXXX)
It was later that evening that Tucker sat on a bench staring blankly at the street as cars drove in front of him. Even in a fake game world, Tucker had never felt so embarrassed in his entire life, he wasn't sure what was the worst, going limp before sticking his boyhood into a girl, ejaculating as he tried to get hard again, or being completely ignored by the girl he was about to have sex with, perhaps it was a combination of all three. A random conversation was more important than his attempt at… well… being active.
Perhaps the game was punishing him for trying the unthinkable, that had to be the case, there was no other explanation. He made the wrong decision by helping Dash get down with Sam, and perhaps Paulina's mission had a different route to take, one that he didn't see. Being inside the game put things in a different perspective, not everything was in plain view, it was then that he mounted his bicycle and peddle to the highway.
"I'm doing this shit and doing it right this time."- Tucker declared as he stood at the starting point, now sexually frustrated, something that he didn't even think possible at his short age.
With a loud and powerful yell leaped into the highway without any suicidal thoughts in his young head, but eager to beat the game, though came to realize he had chosen the worst possible time to try the challenge as nightfall had come upon him. The floating thongs appeared spread throughout the highway, Tucker focus on the task at hand dodging the incoming traffic as best he could while collecting the items.
"Move out of the way!"- a driver yelled out.
Unlike his previous attempt, Tucker wasn't caught off guard. With a bunny hop managed to collect a fifth thong, a sixth and a seventh followed up soon after yet Tucker did his best to stay focused despite it becoming dark, and the headlights adding another layer of difficulty. Nevertheless, Tucker was an avid gamer and this was the hardest and surely the best game ever once he discovered how to unlock the sex parts, not just the voyeuristic elements, he wanted to be on the active side.
The blaring horn of a semi-truck nearly make Tucker crash head-on with a car but once again his skills on the bike kicked in allowing him to dodge the incoming vehicle by jumping over it with a well-timed bunny hop, ironically, Tucker had never been able to perform such a trick in real life, the first and only time he ever attempted it ended with him at the hospital with a broken arm along with Danny nursing him back to health and Sam hiring a sexy nurse to help with the bath, something that he will forever be grateful for.
"Damn juvenile delinquents!"- an elderly voice yelled out as the teen passed deadly close between two cars.
"I can do this! Come on baby, you can do this, just fifteen more to do."- Tucker encouraged himself as he peddled hard across the highway, a dead sentence in the real world. "Come on, you already beat Dark Holes, Dark Holes two and three… this is nothing."- the geek yelled out as he dodged another car and collected his sixteen thongs.
Tucker couldn't believe he was risking his life just for some underwear, it was the second time in a single day that he put himself in danger just for some panties, the customary gold coins made more sense than this obscenity. A girlish scream escaped from Tucker's lips as he skidded under a truck while trying to collect another piece of underwear, a group of bikers forced Tucker to perform a series of maneuvers to avoid colliding with any of them, there was a sense of pride in seeing how much he had achieved by now.
Had he tried this in the real amity park, he would be long dead and most likely being picked up with a shovel. There were only ten panties left to go and the challenge would be complete, this time his performance had been much better, and knowing what he was going up against allowed him to better coordinate his efforts, but Tucker knew better than to let his guard down, he was well aware that it was in the last moments when things became extra difficult.
"Move out of the way, maniac!"- A truck driver yelled out before blaring his horn.
But Tucker's eyes focused on the incoming panty, surrounded by a green aura that gave away its presence, the challenge was coming to an end. Thought, the idea of obtaining a lousy reward crossed his mind as he collects another three pieces of underwear, it wouldn't be out of place considering all he had been through, he was just chased by an enraged gym teacher for stealing the very same items he was now risking his life at the highway.
"Just one more, baby. Beating the challenge is a reward in itself."- the teen declared as a manner to encourage himself.
The final thong was heading his way, the only thing between Tucker and victory was a single car coming straight at him while sounding its horn, with a crooked smile, Tucker bunny hopped over the hood and rode over the car collecting the final piece. Golden letters that spell out "Challenge complete" floated overhead announcing his victory, he could hear a few victorious trumpets as he landed on the street only to be slammed by a truck that tossed across the street.
(XXXX)
"Damn it to hell!"- Tucker cursed out loud.
Tucker noticed he lost one-third of his health bar, a small price to pay for victory, the gold letter continued to float overhead as he got up. A hefty sum of money was added to his bank account making the teen frown as he was expecting more than just money but it was then that his bicycle reshaped in front of him into a modest motorcycle bringing about a long and most welcoming smile.
"Your main transport has been upgraded to the Cuk-69 motorcycle. You can summon it through your tablet."- Tucker read.
Tucker then eagerly made his way toward the reward, jumping around like a toddler who just got a new toy while examining the motorcycle, though knowing little to nothing about the subject was sure the bike resembled a Honda Ace 125, one that he was bugging his father to buy, unfortunately, mister Foley refused to buy him one claiming such device was way too dangerous. The teen walked around the vehicle admiring the bright red, wishing that he could take the bike home, such a reward made his previous missions all worthwhile, the only thing that ruin his reward was the word "Bitch" written on the side
"Kinda obvious I'm not supposed to be the main character around here but damn that's one pretty bike."- Tucker said before mounting the vehicle and heading down the highway.
Despite not having the slightest idea of how to drive, Tucker smoothly made his way to the nasty burger as a means to celebrate his small victory, the game's mechanics made driving an almost automatic skill, all he had to do was mount the bike and move the accelerator, the game did everything else for him, no need to shift gears or do any of the antics require by a real motorcycle.
The teen smiled long and wide as he parked in front of the burger joint, a classic rally point for all teens in Amity Park, though none of the real Nasty Burger had a strip club or busty waitresses walking around, Tucker was still getting used to seeing borderline toddlers running around the restaurant, such a place would have created the scandal of the century in the real world.
"Can I get you a double nasty combo deluxe?"- the zit-covered teller asked Tucker.
Of course, he ignores the teen and headed inside the restaurant still impressed by the stripper and the random families dining with the kids, his eyes focused solely on the girls dancing on stage, their legs moving up and down while showing their privates to the crowd who mostly ignore them. The strippers contrasted with the family-friendly posters, but Tucker could care no less as he wanted to relax.
Perhaps some self-service was in order.
To be continued
