The Real Virtuality

Bar fight

Over at the bar, there were a few ppl just talking to themself and the bartender, some pretty drunk from having their alcohol irl. Malt took a seat at the far end as he just wanted peace. the bartender came over and gave him a bottle of whiskey and a glass. "a drink good sir, you seem like you need it." he was pretty much taking his role seriously. Malt wasnt really ready to start a conversation so he just grabbed the whole bottle and turned away. "Okay , suit yourself, not like it can really do anything." thats what he thinks. You probably wonder how he could even drink without having a mouth with that TV head. Surprise, he can take it off. The TV glitched out of existance to reveal his face. He had green-ishand semi puffy medium length dark hair. Dark red eyes and his toned looked a little gray-ish. He also had two small demon horns on his head with chains wrapped around them. He stared back at the stage as he was drinking the bottle, he didnt seem that interested in anything. it seemed more like he was just trying to drink himself to forget about life. geez.

Back at our table, Late had join us taking a seat "sorry im LATE, i had to finish up some stuff." he winked from his pun "ha ha ha" zalgo laugh in a sarcastic way. "Hi late!" i greeted. "hello little mouse, you enjoying yourself?" i nodded to his question before looking back at the stage when a new couple were dancing. "so if you're here, where's your demon? did he hide back in your head or something ?" he chuckled looking around. Josh jumped in before i could respond "actually, he's at the bar drinking himself away" he pointed towards Malt who was just there indeed seeming lost in the flashing lights with the bottle half way finished. "geez mousey, didnt know your demon was an alcoholic." It surprised me more to see him like that. "yeah, i didnt either, is this place really affecting him that much?" i felt bad for him, sorta.

We kept an eye on him from time to time. Didnt take too long before someone went up to him out of their own curiousness. i mean for fucks sake he wasnt hiding the fact he was truely in the game at all. So much for keeping it on the downlow. The lady who started talking to Malt seemed like she has been around alot. The music was too loud for us to hear what they were saying but clearly we could see that Malt did not give much attention to the woman infront of him, even turned his head away. geez talk about cold but she ended up leaving him alone so thats good.

Soon enough, the music turned down a bit before Kratos' voice rose from the speakers. "thank you so much for being here! now to close our event like always, a few of our dancers are willing to give out special 1 on 1 dances if you're interested, dont be shy and join em! Thank you for coming!" The music restarted. "Special dances? Now that's interesting" Late laughed "are you really going to ask for one?" zalgo glanced at him surprised "nah, maybe next time tho." He winked. Tbh I'm not sure if he's serious or not at this point.

Our attention was immediately turned to screaming over at the bar, more like arguing. Over back there, we could see Malt was up in his feet, arguing to some guy who was basically screaming at him while one of the dancers was standing behind him. We immediately got up to see what was happening and hopefully interfere. "What the heck happened!? Let's be civil here please calm down!" Zalgo said as she got infront of both of them "I'm gonna tell you what's happening! This asshole fucking insulted my girl! She was nice to offer a dance and he just rudely blew her off for no reason! I want him to apologize!" The guy snarled. Malt wasn't havent any of it, especially not helping that he was basically drunk at this point. "NONE SENSE! Shes the one who came over and started fuckin flirting with me! I didn't want her stupid dance! If she couldn't take the hint that I didn't want it at first she wouldn't have kept trying to nag me about it! Fucking bitch"

Things were getting so tensed that Kratos ended up having to come over and step in aswell to fix this mess. "DONT YOU DARE INSULT HER YOU CUNT." He screamed in his face. Malt was boiling in rage as he was trying to get to him, thankfully late managed to get a grip of him and keep him back "It's not worth it." I gripped onto Zalgo's arm terrified, I knew if we stayed longer Malt would blow a fuse  "c-can we go home please? I don't think we should stay here longer.." "yeah you're right, come on guys, we're going" zalgo called to Late and Malt. The guy laughed as he stood back "yeah. Listen to your friends. They seems to have a proper brain than yours, buddy." The guy laughed to himself.

Yeah that done it. Malt lost his cool getting himself out of Late's grip like if he had faze through him. His robotic glove like hand pulled out a knife where his fist would be, the knife was making some static lights almost like it was glitching out and stabbed the dude's head. I mean it wouldn't cause any harm, that guy wasn't in the game. But apparently I was wrong? In a way. Right after the stab the guy just vanished away, like if he had crashed. Which caused a bunch of screaming from confusion. "ALRIGHT WE'RE GOING!" Zalgo said as she had the portal down "mouse get in now!" I didn't hesitate for a second and went through it. To my guess, zalgo wanted me to get in so  Malt would forcefully get pulled into the portal. Oh boy..he's gonna be mad, I can already feel his rage.
