Extraordinary Minds: Road to Hell

Chapter 2: Strange Surroundings

Darkness

Darkness

Nothing but a deep Abyss of black, as Akira could slowly feel himself floating.

"Am I dead? What..What happened to me?"

Akira could only ask himself these questions, as reality started kicking in for him as slowly and steadily..light. He could see light, and then..

Jolting out of bed and gasping for air like someone who was drowning, Akira looks around him in shock wondering where he is. A strangely designed room of sorts. This reminded him a bit of a game he used to play as a child, of decorating your own home and all..

"Am I in...A dorm room or something? This is so weird.."

The room itself had a purple like color to it all, from what looked like some light of sorts. He was laying on a decently queen sized bed, and saw for himself in front of him, a flat screen television and below it..a counter of sorts containing within its shelves many game consoles.

"Ok..What the hells going on?"

Akira kept looking around and seeing on the walls, plastered were game posters of many kinds and a few shelves filled with video games. In one of the corners was a computer of 3 PC's side by side, similar to what you'd see a streamer own.

"Wait, a computer! I can signal for help!" Akira exclaimed, as he rushed over to the computer, turning it on only to see..

NO SIGNAL

"Dammit! Why won't this damn thing work?! Wherever I am, I need to get a signal for help!"

Akira groaned in anger, looking behind him to see a door close to his bed, and..another door. With a Neon Exit sign above it.

"Two doors..Ok, so. Let me guess. What's behind Door Number 1? A new Car? God, wouldn't that be nice.." Akira said to himself before getting up and rushing to the door next to his bed, pulling it open. Within..was a regular monochrome colored bathroom of sorts.

By Monochrome, the walls and floors were a monochrome like color, and you had your basic needs. Toilet, shower, sink..Akira dipped his head out of the door, and saw a closet where he went to check and found...a whole closet full of the same exact outfit he wears everyday.

"This is so weird..Was I kidnapped?"

Kneeling down and thinking for a minute, he gasped at the realization.

"Junpei! Wait..We had gotten to the Academy, and then..and then I blacked out! Where is he?!"

Akira stopped and then remembered. He saw someone with big boots, and..a strange yet familiar voice. Welcoming them to..A game of Life or Death.

"What did that mean?! What does any of this mean?! DAMMIT!"

Slamming his fists into the walls, Akira winced in pain. Grabbing his fist and deciding. Wait! Check the Mirror! Rushing over to the mirror, he took all but his underwear off, and looked around his body for any...marks.

Nothing, except..a little dot on his neck. Red. Dot.

"Was..Was I Drugged?!"

This didnt make sense. This was supposed to be a happy time in his life, and yet..

The doorknob began to jiggle. Akira winced, feeling his whole body sweating in fear. He began shaking, worried for whatever was coming, rushing to get his clothes back on.

"Hide. I HAVE TO HIDE!"

Akira rushed over to the closet and hid inside, knowing this..could easily be the only place he can hide. Fear overtaking him by the minute, as he tried holding his breath..before
