"So, you want to know what these 6 buttons do?" Angel 87 asked.

DaPizzaMan15 nodded.

"So, lets go to the first three buttons to the left of the headset," Angel 87 presented. "The small button has the power to create music of any kind."

"So, if I just press that button and say, play 90s music, it will play 90s music?"

"Not quite." Angel 87 presented. "When you press the button, the goggles will ask you what music you want to play, and what volume."

"So, what do I say?"

"Well, say you want to play classical music, okay? You'd just click this button, and the headset would ask you: 'What music do you want to play on September 25, 2021?' Then, you'd tell it: 'I would like to play classical music, 60 decibels.'"

"The volume is in decibels?"

"Yeah. I recommend 60 decibels. 70 or higher then you're ears will bleed."

"What's the highest number of decibels this thing will go to?"

"The decibels range from 10 decibels, which is as loud as standard human breathing, to 130 decibels, which is as loud as a jet engine."

DaPizzaMan15 wondered why the levels went that high.

"The second button," Angel 87 continued, is what you use to call me. "But only use it in the most dire emergencies."

DaPizzaMan15 opened his mouth to speak, but Angel 87 knew what he was gonna say.

"And no, a dire need of a conversation is not an emergency." Angel 87 said.

DaPizzaMan15 looked down, sad.

Angel 87 continued her documentary. "Now, the third and fourth buttons have to be used together, in order to bring life." she stated.

"Wow, really?" DaPizzaMan15 asked.

"Yes, but they must be used together in order for it to work."

"What if I only use one?"

"Then it won't work. Like at all."

"Oh. I thought the thing would be like, deformed or something."

"No. Not at all."

"Ok. What do buttons 5 & 6 do?"

"The 5th button will shoot a laser"

"A LASER?!?! COOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Yep. If you use it too often however, there will be a 30 minute cooldown."

"Oh."

"Now, really, I have no idea what this 6th button does. Whenever I've pressed it, it doesn't do anything."

"Huh. Interesting."

"So, do you now wish to put on the goggles?"

DaPizzaMan15 thought for a minute, really wondering if he wanted to change his life forever. He thought for 25 seconds until he made his decision.

"Yes." was his decision.

"Very well." Angel 87 said. "Once you put these on, my soul will live inside you, watching over you and everything you created."

"Ok then! So, you'll disappear when I put these on?"

"Yes. Do you wish to put them on now?"

"Yes."

"Ok. Here we go. Close your eyes."

DaPizzaMan15 closed his eyes, and then Angel 87 put the goggles on his head. A few seconds later, DaPizzaMan15 asked: "Are they on?"

No response. 

DaPizzaMan15 felt around his head, and indeed, the goggles were on.

He opened his eyes with the goggles on for the first time, and Angel 87 was nowhere to be seen. DaPizzaMan15 went into a panic when he found out.

"Wha...ANGEL 87?!" DaPizzaMan15 screamed, but then remembered her words.

"Oh, yeah." DaPizzaMan15 said. 

DaPizzaMan15 looked around the place, seeing he was the only person there. He stayed there for a few more minutes, and then decided to leave the end structure.

"Today, a new era of me reigns." DaPizzaMan15 boldly told himself. "I shall go back home, and go live my life with this new pair of goggles, with that Angel looking over me!"I shall never return to this place. Ever. I must find that end portal, and go back home, to where I belong! But, before I do...."

DaPizzaMan15 climbed up the ladder, and saw Larry's dead body, with blood around him, with two arrows in him; one in his stomach, and one in his head.

"For a third time, I'm sorry." DaPizzaMan15 said.

DaPizzaMan15 left the structure, never to return, with Larry's dead body there to decompose and rot for all eternity.
