To test it out Sam grabbed "Age of Ultron" and put it into his computer. Selecting Black Widow, Sam saved her as a "Subject" and let the program create a mode...
Without characters, a story is little more than a detailed road-map, or atlas. Empty scenes, and situations would be hollow, blank neighborhoods, fictional deserts of magnitudes post apocalyptic. Imagine reading a book where you were given beautiful descriptions, detailed environments, dangerous scapes, and deadly terrains, but nothing happened. Ever. Thi...
I stretch quickly and start walking down my street. I need to get this done quickly, otherwise I’ll be late for school. It’s the first time my parents have let me out at such an early time and I’m grateful for it, even if it’s not what I first wanted. You can’t see the sunrise at twenty to seven in the morning, but you can at least feel the early morning chi...

As she smacks her lips to get a taste of the morning, she looks down at herself. Her skin has a healthy tan from years of living in the wilderness, her body covered in freckles. "Perfect. Absolu...
‘What happened?’ I instinctively ask myself as I slowly regain consciousness. ‘Everything’s dark. Where am I and how did I get here? I remember playing Minecraft with my online friends and then...... And then what!? Why can’t I remember!?’ I begin to panic. [CALM YOURSELF MY SON] An omnipresent voice spread throughout the void. “Who’s there!?” I shout. [IT I...
You hear the sound you have been waiting for, the ding of your computer that your game has finished installing. You immediately start it up and put on your VR visor and grab your controller. The visor screen turns on and your heart beats faster as you see the intro and the feminine goddess telling you "welcome to the world. " You go through the set...
