The Ride of My Life

When I opened up my eyes, I could see a roof, guessing it's from a warehouse. When I got up, I could see a BMW M3 GTR parked right in front of us. What is going on?

I tapped a guy's shoulder to wake him up. He was also shocked to see a BMW in front of him.

On front of the car, I can see options. Options of "Continue Career", "Start New Career", and "Load". Now a knew.

I was in the game.

"Um, hey, do you realize we're in Need for Speed: Most Wanted?" I asked.

"Yeah," he replied. "How did we get in here?"

That's the same thing I'm gonna ask. I don't remember anything. I lost all memories of my life. I don't know who am I. I don't who I am with.

This game may have secrets to reveal. I need to find them out.

I don't know how to scroll through the icons. I closed my hand for 5 seconds, and it took us to the Career safehouse.

This works like an Xbox 360 Kinect, I thought.

I scrolled through and pick the Select Cars option. I let my friend (I can't seem to remember him) choose the car he likes. He picked out the Porsche Panamera Turbo [P4e Style]. I guess he likes Porsches.

"Now, how do we get out of here?" I asked.

"Try going to freeroam," he said.

I chose the Free Roam option in the menu and I chose Yes since I was prompted.

It blacked out. I can only see a loading screen. A second later, I can see myself behind the wheel of the car.

"Could you drive this thing?" my friend asked.

"I could try," I replied.

I stepped on the gas pedal. My car went off the line like a Bugatti. I can't control it in 250 km/h!

I steered. I started to get the hang of it. I steered some more. I got it.

I could see that I'm now at the Dunwich Village, as the game says. There was a person in front if the church. I can barely remember him. He is familiar but I don't know who he is.

"You there!" I shouted.

He ran. Fast. I drove my car to him. We took him down.

My friend kept his hands behind his back and I did the deliberating.

"What do you want from us?!" I shouted.

"You don't remember me?" He said. "We met a long time ago. When we were 8. You left me. You abandoned me because of.. NFS."

Wait, because of NFS? I thought.

"You didn't answer my question," I said. "What do you want from us?!"

"Well, remember that 'Walking Dead' Porsche in World?"

I still don't remember.

"What?" My friend said.

"Yeah," the guy said. "You're right, AK."

Who is AK? He is my friend, right?

"I don't know who I am," he said.

"Go get something from the car," I told my friend.

He went to the Porsche, and looked at him to make sure he's not doing anything stupid. But when I looked back, he's gone.

"Oh no."

Who is that guy? What is his plan? What actually happened when they were 8?
