I was playing video games until I recognized it was time to sleep or I'd be late for school the next day. I entered my school and I was late since I stayed up late playing video games, so I rushed in the hall way, not having enough time to look at the school and its design.

I entered my classroom and sat down as the teacher entered; it appeared that I wasn't too late after all.

During the session, the person next to me introduces himself as "Lucas," and I present myself as Ethan. He told me how much he hated chemistry, and I wondered whether chemistry was easy this year. The bell rang, and it was time for break.

I asked my friend Lucas to introduce me to the school because I was new. So he first showed me the dining hall, which was cool because there was a lot of space for people to eat, and then he showed me the teachers' room in case I had any questions. The school looked amazing with this modern design, and we finally decided to go to the back ground and sit to eat our lunch.

Suddenly, we were approached by two guys. The first was fat, and the second was tall. My friend Lucas was nervous. So I quickly realized they were the school bullies, so I said no, I'm not going to give any of you my food because it's my lunch, not yours. Suddenly, the bullies began throwing punches. My friend Lucas was also beaten up. I became dizzy and collapsed on the ground, and the school teachers immediately intervened. I woke up in the teachers' room, and it seems that they've been trying to wake me up ever since.

I walked back home in the rain because my school is close to my house, and my mother was concerned because I was late. My mother ended a call with my school teacher as soon as I entered my house, and she informed her what had happened; she was shocked when she saw me, and I said it was fine, and then I quickly entered my room.

I went into my room, threw my bag on the bed, and turned on my PC to play some games. While playing games, an ad appeared on my screen that said how to protect yourself from the dark web. I was curious about what the dark web was, so I clicked the ad and saw a guy talking about everything about the dark web and how he won a lot of money but ended up depressed with nothing to do. I ignored the ad because the dark web appears to be very dangerous. After that, I turned off my computer and went to sleep.

In my dream, I saw my father standing in front of me. He had a beard, long hair, and strong skin, and he didn't appear happy. I instantly began racing towards him, only to be awoken by my alarm. I've missed him since the day he died in a vehicle accident.

I got dressed and went to school. As soon as I entered the building, my friend Lucas approached me. I quickly remembered what had happened the day before, and I felt that I was to blame for what had happened to him, so I dashed to the restroom to hide from him. When the bell rang, I had to go to my class; as soon as I walked in, there was no empty seat except for the one next to Lucas. So I had no choice but to sit there with Lucas staring into my eyes, and I was terrified. But when he said, "Ethan, don't do what you did yesterday," I was relieved; I had expected him to punch me or something. Lucas began talking about video games, and I told him that I play a lot of games, so we agreed to play together when we returned home.

The bell rang, it was lunchtime, and Lucas and I were talking about our levels in the game "Jygo" while eating our lunch. When I returned home, my mother approached me and said, "Your father left you a message before he died." I was very curious about what this thing was, so I rushed to my room to open it, and it contained a paper that said "Hello, son. I'm sure you'll be reading this after my death, but I just wanted to let you know that your computer may pose a real threat to you and your mother; please do not open suspicious websites." I had no idea what my father was talking about, so I just turned on my computer and began playing with Lucas.

The same advertisement reappears, so I click it and decide to make some money on this strange website because my family is so poor. I jumped directly to a chat room, where I met a guy who told me all I needed to know about this website and told me to meet him at a specific location.
