A light blue screen floated in front of him gingerly. His brows scrunched in confusion as he looked at it. A single bold word in the middle of it.
Welcome.
“This isn’t what I was watching… Where did this screen come from?” Drake questioned. His gaze brought again to the subtly bobbing screen in front of him. Taking better notice of the screen, at the bottom of the it there was a small white blinking arrow prompting him to continue.
“Oh.. I kinda don’t like that.. I’ve seen one too many movies like this,” Drake muttered.
Trying to quickly get up from his sitting position, he actually noticed that he was actually sitting in a comfortable office like chair, taken aback.
“I should have been in bed laying down and watching my late night… show…”
And why is it so chilly in here? He pondered trying to take stock. Ignoring the screen still prompting him to continue, almost seeming to blink more aggressively in his peripheral. Drake began to pat himself down. It seemed impossible but it looked like he had been moved somehow into this white non-descript room.
Moving from his head, down his body he embarrassedly stopped at his pants. Or his lack thereof. “Shit I’m pantsless? Hey! Whoever you are! You didn’t even have the decency to clothe me when you kidnapped me!?” he shouted into the air at nothing in particular, but he hoped someone would hear him and give him some answers.
The room he was in didn’t seem to have any doors. And definitely no windows, which was another confusing thing to add to the list of rather confusing things, as there was light but no light sources that he could find.
“Did one of my brothers put you up to this!? I know my birthday is coming up soon but this goes way beyond a joke! Hello?!” Drake continued to shout for a few minutes. Eventually devolving into loud insults and indecencies. Finally resorting to just screaming at the top of his lungs as no one answered him. Until he ran out of energy and slid down against a wall to sit.
After a few minutes of being slumped against a wall, his head tiled back staring into space, a bell sounded in Drake’s head, followed by a mechanical female voice.
[Welcome. New Persons’ to the integration of fused world 7.515e14. You will have the following hour to go through the introduction before the initial tutorial commences. May you gain insight, power, and renown. And most importantly survive.]
The voice said coldly, only adding to the ominous and confusing pit forming in Drake's stomach.
The bell and voice faded from inside Drake’s head as his vision panned down from the ceiling, focusing on the light blue screen, a new white timer counting down on the top right of it.
[Time Remaining until Initiation: 59 Minutes, 45 Seconds]
“Ahh…. I’ve definitely seen this movie before… And I really don’t want to see what happens when the timer runs out if I don't finish...” he wearily chuckled pressing the continue button on the screen.
