“Kayla, you said you have a new game on the CherryConsole 3, right?” I asked at the sleepover party, with the light of the game we were playing hardly showing my face.
“Yeah, I found it in the basement at our house. It’s called the Lemon Vortex I think.”
“Let’s play it, the name sounds pretty cool.”
“KK, I’ll get it.” Kayla said in reply.
The game screen pulls up, there’s nice graphics and the art style is cute. We didn’t exactly know anything about it, for it just came with the console.
“Oh, let’s customize a character.” Kayla told me.
“ Ooh! I can be creatures! I wanna be the sea creature.”
“Dragon wings~”
“Are you like a half-dragon half-human?”
Kayla made a girl that looked like her, a tall girl with a dark brown ponytail with blonde at the end. The bright blue eyes tied the whole character together. For me, I chose the sea creature. A pale cyan shade, with axolotl-like cheeks and a swishy tail. I gave it a cute face with shiny eyes, and arms that were so elegant that they looked like they had cloaks.
“Your character looks like you, Kayla.”
“Yours doesn’t!”
We both chuckle and move on to the directions.
“Step 1. Customize your character.
Step 2. Select the ‘TRANSMIT TO GAME WORLD’ button.”
Me and Kayla both look at each other in confusion. I hesitate, wondering what could happen. No, there’s no way we could be transported or anything.
“I guess we should try it.. I don’t know if that’s a fancy way of saying ‘play’ or not.”
“We can quit if you want..”
“No no, I want to play. Let’s do it.”
So, I select the “TRANSMIT TO GAME WORLD” button. A colorful pastel background comes up with a loading screen that says “Hold on to your controller!”. There was a spinning lemon, indicating that the loading was still in process.
“Hm, I guess it’s fine. I’ll get a snack for us.” Kayla said.
“Wait, but It said hold on to your controlle-”
The loading finished, and we heard a ding. Everything was white, and then it was fine. Bot of us were still in the same position we were before. But.. suddenly, we were.. On a tropical Island? There was a pink sky and green water. A little yellow thing appeared, it was made of two circles like a snowman. It had completely white eyes and no mouth. We were surprised to notice that we became our characters.
“WHAT THE HECK WHY AM I FLOATING!?” I screamed. I was trying to tell myself it was unexpected virtual reality, but Kayla did not have virtual reality.
“W-where are we??”
That’s it! Well, not really, but it’s all I’m going to post for now. Make sure to tune in to see the second page! Have a magnificent day, sayonara!
