ENVISAGE

"f**k" The Huge Monster in front of Romin slashed its claws at him. By God's luck and his Insane reflexes Romin managed to dodge the deadly claws which had already seen blood as it dripped on to the floor, A dark and an eerie red color. The creature in front of him looked like a werewolf, but it was much worse. It's fur was covered in muck and gore which formed patches around its thick fur. The Fangs were long and from the looks of it was craving for blood as drops of saliva dropped from its tip. The Monster was almost 2 meters high with a stout body. It's brain was bulging out from its head and weird types of veins covered the jutting brain. The Claws were as deadly as it's fangs. The Monster went again for Romin and this time it aimed at his neck. Romin who saw it's movements ducked down instantly and dodged it's claws barely. The Claw in its momentum slashed through the wall and made a huge hole just like the hole in the roof. Without a second thought Romin jumped out from the newly open hole as the Monster missed it's third s***h by centimeters. A c***k echoed in his ears as he landed and just after with a twisted expression on his face rolled on the dirt holding his right leg, which was most probably.....broken because of the fall from the 4 storied building. Romin with the last of his energy and will crawled on the road. His aim now was to get as far as possible from the werewolf which was chasing for his life. As he crawled through the ground his eyes caught a stick just 1 meter ahead of him. Romin gave it all and reached the stick. With it's support and his sprained left leg, he managed to balance himself and stand up. Romin kept his right leg suspended and started pacing forward with the stick between his right arm. With small steps, he made it down the road and peeked from the corner of a destroyed building. His eyes welled up as he saw the scene in front of him. The Whole city was up in smoke. Cars were crashed into building and were smoking. All the building around the city was broken or completely annihilated. With care Romin made his way through the debris in front of him. There was blood and body parts around him. A strong urge to Vomit welled up in his throat as he covered his mouth with his left hand. Nausea stricken Romin was now limping down the road, his eyes partially closed so that he could avoid the gore as much as possible. Now or then he would walk on a piece of wood or stone and slip, holding back his scream he would close his eyes and bite down his hand. Writhing in pain, Romin made his way to the junction, no signs of life yet. There was only destruction. A strong smell of blood was picked up by a gust of slick wind and whooshed right in front of Romin's nose. Losing control, Romin falls on his knees and vomits his morning breakfast out on the pavement. Something loud crunched far behind him and Romin turned to see where the noise was from. His jaw slacked as he saw the werewolf pace menacingly towards him. He turned his head to the front as he heard a clink of metal. Another one of the Monster was glaring at him, it licked its mouth with its bloody tongue, showing interest and a strange feeling creeped up on his stomach. Two more clinks and crunches followed and Romin was surrounded by 4 monsters blocking him from all of the 4 junction sides. He was dead centre in the junction and there were 4 roads around him, from which all of them were blocked by the huge werewolf like monsters. He gave up on his life and laid on his back staring at the sky. The monsters were slowly creeping up to him, they showed no hurry or whatsoever but had their eyes on each of the other monsters and on the Injured Romin. Staring at the sky Romin tried to think what he had missed out on. What in the World was happening??. He remembered leaving early from his rental apartment and making his way towards the game centre. It was the first anniversary of the VRMMORPG game RENOVA which had blown charts off in the sales and marketing division. Earning over a maximum of 200 billion dollars worth money in a year was no joke. RENOVA had a whole player base of 4 billion players worldwide. It was crazily loved by gamers from all around the globe and soon climbed the charts on the top grossing list. Other game companies were almost being ignored completely from the launching of this game. RENOVA deserved all types of praises as it was the first ever VRMMORPG game to be introduced to the World. Most of the players lived their own alternate life on the game. It was as if daily life was being changed gradually to something more virtual. Getting this game and a spot on the Gaming centre was a tough job for an Orphan like Romin. All of his earnings were blown off on this game. Why Not?. The currency inside RENOVA was more expensive than those outside. The Gold coins in-game can be traded for real currency in a ratio of 1:10. That meant the number of gold coins you had in-game was multiplied to ten when it is traded. The Job class was very important in RENOVA. But by his bad luck, Romin accidently activated a secret quest and it forced him to acquire the Job class of THE ORACLE. At first It sounded all mighty and nice but Romin soon realized it was crap when he found out that there was no quest he could take on. He thought he had become one of the NPC's in RENOVA. There was no quest for him for a whole year straight. On the day of the anniversary, he recieved his first ever quest as THE ORACLE, a pretty big one which paid very handsomely. He just had to....see the future. Just like an Oracle does!. And right when he was about to accept the quest, a sudden tremor hit his capsule and his vision went blank and a message popped up on the VR screen. 'CONNECTION LOST, SERVER DOWN' When he got out of the VR headset he came to realize he missed out on something very, very crucial. The roof was broken and the Monster was standing beside him, another player on its hand, who was missing his legs and his stomach was ripped open. The Wolf munched it's way down the person's stomach and came up with his intestines on its bloody mouth. With a snap, it turned its head towards Romin and dropped the dead person on the side. And after all those mess, he was now laying on the road, staring at the sky. He thought how he was going to die. Will the Monster rip him open too?. Will it be a painful death or a quick one?. His mind throwed questions after questions. His mind went blank as soon as a ping echoed throughout the streets. The ground vibrated. Romin tried to sit up, but he just couldn't. Exhaustion and pain got better of him. He was still laying down his face upwards. *PING* The Sound echoed once more but this time something appeared on the sky on the clouds. Words!!. It was words and it was in English. In a blood red color the words lined itself on the clouds. Romin's eyes widened as he read the aligned words in the sky. "Limi...Limiter Broken.....Releasing seals.." His eyes suddenly closed and his vision blanked. *BLANK* "Oracle Mode activated" "ENVISAGE SYSTEM ACTIVATED SUCCESSFULLY"
