SG: .....Totem...into...Alchemiter......Item.......Break........................
==> AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!
THAT TELLS YOU ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY NOTHING!!!!! GREAT GOD ABOVE, WHADDAIDOWHADDAIDOWHADDAIDOWHADDAIDOWHADDAIDO?!?!?!?
.................................................. Wait a tick...
==> GET TO WORK ALREADY!!!
The computer is on the floor. Your sister and your mother have taken notice.
The timer is now down to 40 seconds...
==> Enter the Medium
Tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-
That clock continued it's merciless countdown, as you rush to your room and quickly put the Totem on the first place on the Alchemiter that made sense; the small pillar next to the main machine....
The machine suddenly springs to life as small metal arm pops up and scans the totem... There is a flash of energy before what appears to be a huge book case appears on the Spirograph on the main part of the Alchemizer. Out of the Bookcase was what appeared to be a small blue crystal book, which lands next to your feet...
As it does, it opens as the floor starts shaking.
Your sister is screaming and crying hysterically... Cassie is barking up a storm as the house begins to shake... You couldn't hear your mother, but you was sure she was trying her best to comfort your sister in their last moments.... Maybe everybit as confused as to why this was happening as you were....
But that barely mattered...
For on the page of the book before him, there was text... Only one sentence was written on it.... But it's words haunted you...
'All Hail the Thief of Void; Bringer of death and destruction!
.... As the house shook more, you growled at this... A growl so feral that you almost didn't recognize your own voice.
00:00:10..... 00:00:09.... 00:00:08
You grab one of the swords from your wall. Decorative or not, it was still sharp... You growl down at the book before you, it proclomizing just as FF did... That damn infuriating woman..!
FF: Just that you're going to get us all killed
SLICE...
You stab through the book, implanting the sword into the floor. The book shattered like cheap glass... Somewhere inside, you grin.
No... That'll never happen... Never....
The house shaking suddenly catches your attention again... You look to the window... Everything outside was bright and fiery, the house's temperature increasing exponentially.
You're eyes widen in horror as the house shook even more....
There was a bright flash.... And suddenly... Nothing...
Everything you once knew faded to black...
And you are almost sure that, at that moment, all semblences of a normal life ended.....
END OF ACT 1.1

==> Begin Act 1.2
You start to readjust to the waking world a bit more and check the Game Guide. You also hope to all that is holy that Aaron is okay.
"Tier Two Prototyping..." You still need to do that. You have just the perfect thing to do for it, too! You scurry up the stairs, bashing any imps in your way, until you reach your dorm room. You take your TOUHOU PROJECT POSTER and toss it into your Sprite.
When the light dies down, the Spy's head is replaced by... Fuck yeah! Marisa's head... wearing a Spy mask. However, the Sprite has a butterfly knife... and a Mini-Hakkero! Freakin' Sweet!
==> Return to your Dashtop in the basement.
You slide down the banister back there.

Pieter: Muse on interruption.
Well, that was interesting. What a douche, seriously. ...He seemed nice enough at first... but then he started making no sense whatever with his death talk and doomed stuff.
Anyway, yeah. Better find your Sprite. It cloaked itself while you were humoring the "Sheepmaster."
You take a moment to laugh at the moronic title. You don't really even care that he's probably watching. You really have no fucks to give about that.
Ah! There it is. You start to talk to the Marisasprite.
Pieter: So... what am I supposed to do?
Marisasprite: You've got an important role to play in this game, da ze.
Pieter: Okay... I see. What is it?
Marisasprite: Well, I can't just tell you that, that'd be too easy. Hahaha~!
Pieter:...Really? Are you kidding me.
Marisasprite: Nope! I never kid! I'll tell you this for now: Your role is critical; you make sure the linear happens and have a role in creation. That's all you get from me! Hahahaha~!
...*Facepalm X3 combo*
Apparently, the Sprite thought it'd be fucking hysterical to lend you a hand.
.......Well, that's just great. What the hell are you supposed to do now?

Years in the future, but not many...
A DISTRAIT MIGRANT settles into a desert wasteland and observes his surroundings. Among a small assortment of odd items he's discovered is a sky blue hoodie marked with a curious rainbow striped shape like a lightning bolt. The DM supposes it's possibly the best outfit he'll find any time soon and puts it on.
There's not much left of any sign of civilization in the area other than what appeared to be a large, high tech station vaguely shaped like an electric guitar. Figuring it was certainly better than that nerve-wracking temple not far off, DM takes refuge in the station.
First thing he sees as he steps into the door is an odd, circular Spirograph-printed elevator floor. Curious, DM takes the elevator up one floor and arrives at a computerized room where the biggest machine is a 12-screened computer with a command line window below and one keyboard. There is no mouse in sight, meaning the computer likely runs entirely on text prompts.
All the more curious, DM steps forward and looks at the monitors. They are all turned off. All except for one...

As you space out again, waiting for responses and browsing tumblr, you get the strange feeling you're missing out on a lot of shit.
This is confirmed for you when Gantz finally answers.
GG: Kels you have to believe what I'm telling you right now, I only just a few seconds ago was given the disbelief act by TSI.
GG: And please for the love of god please don't say I'm crazy. I'm practically freaking out at it as it's going on on the news right now...
GG: Okay... A meteor has struck the earth. It's destroyed an entire college!
GG: I know it sounds crazy, but come on, you felt the Earth shaking a few seconds ago didn't you??
ND: maybe? i dunno.
ND: still, whoa that sounds crazy!
ND: i look into it in a second, my download of the game is almost finished!
Yeah. You totally have your priorities straightened out.
Kelsey: Pester Marky
nuttyDonutcake [ND] began pestering programmaticComposer [PC]

==> Toxee: Admire your posters and pictures
You take a moment to admire the several posters of older celebrities that cover your walls. Your favorite poster being of an ARGENTINE SINGER that most likely no one knows about. With those dazzling blue eyes of his, you could stare at this poster all day... But you are soon pulled out of your vivid daydreaming by pesterchum's notification sound.

You idly check your iPod Touch. The internet is still out, it looks like. That's just dandy. The day you'd been waiting for and the stupid internet's unusable.
Oh well. Nothing you can do about it. Besides, what's a few hours of time?
Meanwhile...
In a future settled askance of the present...
New text message!
A man drives past his friend's house. A crater, discovered. A friend, uncharacteristically horrified.
A nation, growing in panic. A crisis, apparent.
Back to the present.
Boo-doo-ding!
Your iPod recieves a new email message. Odd. But that means your internet is back! Interesting. You go back to your laptop and sure enough, it's firing on all cylinders. You waste no time and get to installing one of the discs, entering the proper cheat code to retrieve it.

It certainly isn't going to summon TSI to his computer any faster. To your chagrin, you realize only you can hear your fingers rapidly slamming on your laptop's keyboard.
Finally, someone speaks up at last! Ah yes! This delightful bastard was going to be next on your list to contact!

You load up one of the discs, which happens to be the SERVER DISK. It scans automatically for available client players, prioritizing with IP addresses you've been in contact with. The first one it pulls up is linked to a computer in California, which you figure must be Kelsey's. It asks if you want to connect, and you decide to go for it.

..................................................
==> Awaken
Ugh.....
==>
Where... What's....
==> Take in your surroundings
You slowly wake up and find yourself in an odd looking bedroom that was little more then dark purple. The decorations seemed similar to his own room save the dramatic color change. Purple swords hanging on the walls, a rug laid down on the floor in the center of the room, and a few posters hanging on the wall. The Bed was king-sized with purple bed-spread, and when you look around, you find what appears to be a purple laptop sitting on the desk across the room...
Oddly enough, it appears to have been left on.
==> Cross the room
As you do this, you suddenly stumble and hit the floor, understandible since you feel a little tired and woozy. Landing on the floor however wakes you up a little more, and you're back on your feet in a few seconds.
==> Check computer
You stumble a little before landing yourself on the chair at the computer desk. You take a moment to grin at the factor that it's one of those kinds with wheels built into the bottom of the legs. Hmmmmmmmm....
==> Goof off
(Dream!Aaron is seen spinning around on his chair, tiredly, almost drunkenly enjoying himself.)
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee- eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee- eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee- eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee- eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee- eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee- eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee URK!
==>
(Dream!Aaron is seen throwing up in a nearby trash-bin.)
Needless to say, throwing up from the dizziness helps you wake up a little more.
==> Check computer
Okay, let's continue... Hmmm, nothing of interest going on. Or at least, nothing too bad... But that still just begs the question...
Where are you?
==> Look through window
Remembering the window from nearby, you walk over to it to have a loo-
Oh my...
==>
(The City of Derse is spread out before Aaron as he looks out the window.)
Woooooooooow... What was this place?

Speak of the devil, there is a knock at your bedroom door. Before you decide to answer it you pick up the nine-Iron that sits under your bed- It's only there for security reasons, seriously; you have no interest in Golfing.
Kisa: Select "GOLF CLUB"
Your STRIFE SPECIBUS has been ALLOCATED with the GOLF-CLUBKIND.
Now you can kick some ass with your trusty NINE-IRON in hand.
Kisa: Answer that door already!
You slowly creep to the door and open it....
Kisa: STRIFE!!!

You would LOVE to. But your laptop is kind of a two-year-old piece of shit, so it's going to take some time to load.
This would have been a good time to space out, but you've done enough of that already. It's time to be productive, dammit!
Kelsey: Take Tablet
You take your BAMBOO TABLET and corresponding PEN into hand. Never know when you might need it! Which would be smart if it didn't require a computer to plug into to be even remotely useful.
You attempt to captchalogue it.
The key word here being "attempt."
==>
Your BRAINSTORM FETCH MODUS is a fucking mess. Items are linked together like thought bubbles, the connections between them that you thought up hours, days, weeks ago strenuous at best. And when you insert something or take something out, it's an entire ordeal to make and break connections so that nothing falls on the floor. Which usually ends up happening anyway.
Alright... let's give it a go.
Kelsey: Link tablet to something.
Well, what the fuck DO you link it to? There's not a thing remotely related to it in your sylladex.
You glance at the STRATEGY GUIDE for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Well, Link's got a sword and shield.
That's kinda like a pen and tablet, right?
Kelsey: Allocate tablet to strife specibus.

Pieter: Send a Pester to Aaron.
You sincerely hope that he's okay... you flip a tab to a news site... a meteor struck... that was where Aaron's house was! ...After your previous experience, you aren't as surprised.
You decide to send a Pester to Aaron and make sure he's okay...
shadesofGrey began pestering gantzGun at 11:49
[11:49] SG: ...Aaron... I just had the weirdest dream...
[11:49] GG: Dream? What's this about a dream?
[11:50] GG: What's up Pieter?
[11:50] SG: It's so weird... I'm in this... purple room. Everything's kinda fuzzy... and I can hear this song... it's kinda cool, actually...
[11:50] SG:
[11:51] GG: ...................
[11:51] SG: ...Wait. Don't tell me... you've had it, too?
[11:51] GG: Okay, I'm listening to the video... Uh... Pieter. Tell me more about this dream.
[11:51] GG: Where are you in it?
[11:51] SG: Well... I don't know much... just in this room. Everything's so fuzzy, I can't make out any details... just the song...
[11:51] GG: Don't leave out a single detail if possible.
[11:51] SG: And the color, I guess....
[11:51] SG: Lots and lots of purple...
[11:52] GG: Pieter... This is going to sound very weird, but I want you to bear with me.
[11:52] SG: .......Okay...
[11:52] GG: As we talk right now.
[11:52] SG: ....Yes?
[11:53] GG: I'm IN the dream you just mentioned. I don't even need the vid. I'm listening to this same tune... The only difference is, the percussion is very defined. There's that apparent Bass drum, cymbals, and a hint of Snare drum.
[11:53] SG: Really? ...I hear a Trombone playing countermelody to the violin and guitar...
[11:53] SG: Wait, if you're in the dream, how the hell are you typing this?!
[11:53] SG: I didn't think you were a sleepwalker!
[11:53] GG: That's the thing man.
[11:54] GG: Even if I was a sleepwalker, I grew out of it in my teenage years.
[11:54] SG: ...Aren't you nineteen? You'd still be technically a teenager... but I get what you mean.
[11:54] GG: Sides, if I was sleepwalking, all you'd be seeing right now would be pure gibberish.
[11:54] SG: So... what now? Nora'd been talking about something like this, right?
[11:54] GG: Actually... No.
[11:55] GG: I had to hear this news from Richard rather then Nora.
[11:55] GG: But apparently she has this same dream, yes I know.
[11:55] SG: Richard... Richard... oh yeah!
[11:55] SG: I almost never call him by that. Anyway... she does, too... I wonder... who else?
[11:56] SG: 'Cause we can't be the only ones...
[11:56] SG: ...I wonder if this is part of the game, too...
[11:56] GG: I don't know... Apparently you have them though... But allow me the chance to talk. Maybe I'll be able to piece together what's going on.
[11:56] SG: Sure...
[11:56] SG: Let's see if we can't figure this out...
[11:57] GG: Okay, as I am in the dream, I THINK I'm living at the top of this high up tower, overlooking a gigantic purple city. As I look past the city... I THINK I see what appears to be a moon... But the moon looks very similar to Earth.
[11:57] GG: Okay, not really Earth per-sei, the countries aren't located in the same places and ways our earth is shown from a globe and all that stuff.
[11:58] GG: But regardless, it's like I'm living on a planet that's in orbit to some other planet... I dunno...
[11:58] SG: Okay... I can't really corroborate this, since I haven't seen any details...
[11:58] SG: But that sounds... kinda logical.
[11:58] GG: Well... Here's something.
[11:58] SG: ...Wait, I just remembered something. Nora did tell me to get some "Purple Room Coffee"...
[11:59] SG: ...I'm gonna laugh if there's a coffeemaker in my room; I've always wanted one for my dorm room.
[11:59] GG: Something I apparently didn't need.
[11:59] SG: Hm?
[12:00] GG: Well, like you, I had a hard time grasping details, everything was so fuzzy... I think I stumbled around this room of mine a little though, until I managed to wake myself up... I know that sounds weird since I SHOULD be in a dream but...
GG: For some reason, I felt like I had to.
[12:00] GG: So yeah...
[12:00] GG: I'm somehow awake in a dream.
[12:00] SG: ...That's so weird...
[12:00] SG: I'm really tempted to agree with Richard... there's something not right about this game...
[12:01] GG: I figured that out the instant a meteor smashed my house into oblivion...
[12:01] SG: ...I will say this, though... since I've entered The Medium... I've felt a lot stronger... and I'm not athletic at all...
[12:01] GG: Thanks for the directions by the way.
[12:01] SG: ...Wait, your house isn't destroyed, dude... there's no rubble or anything on the news...
[12:01] SG: I tried... something attacked me from behind and knocked me out; that's when I first went to the purple room...
[12:01] GG: Vague as they were, I have a vague feeling that they saved my life.
[12:01] GG: Don't ask me how I can feel that... It just feels like I know somehow.
[12:02] SG: It looks like some weird-ass imp or something like that... I'm thinking they're the normal enemies in the game...
[12:03] SG: Well... ack! There's more of them! Aaron, I have to let you go!
[12:03] SG: ...Oh, hell! They've got swords now!
shadesofGrey left chat.
==>
Well, this is less than pleasant. You thought the butterfly knives that some of these things had were bad enough... this is just ridiculous. You draw your trombone mutes and start Strifing.
