Gamers Glitch//Septiplier//on Hold

"Gamers glitch is a game where you will travel across dimensions, lands and different rooms. Your aim is to get past each place without dying. Mini tasks will be given to you along the way and rewards will be given to you for completing them. Each place will have a one or two main tasks you will need to complete to get to the next place. Do you understand?" Pixel informed them. Both men nodded as a response. "Good, now I do have to warn you, you will have to save people on the way and you will know these people" Mark suddenly looked worried but jack just shrugged at the statement, "I will be with you throughout the game but I won't be able to help very often so you will have to save the people together. And not only that, if you die in this game, you'll die in real life."

Silence filled the room. Pixel was a robot but even she had emotions so she waited patiently for their reactions. Jack was first.
"Okay what the actual frick?! You're telling me that I'm going to die? You know- I can't- death- my life-" he was lost for words. Even though he was fuming you could tell he was trying not to swear. Mark didn't understand that, they are all adults so why would he restrain himself? What mark doesn't know is that there are readers, but I'll leave that conversation for another time.

Speaking of Mark, he had finally taken in what pixel had said, "okay." Was all he managed to say.
"Okay? OKAY? You've just been told you could die and all you can say is fricking okay?!" The loud man yelled, his cheeks scarlet and his voice filled with emotion.
"Yep..." marks voice was quite than a whisper compared to jacks, "I think we can win?" It was more of a question than a statement. Mark wasn't sure if jack would agree, considering they've just met and jack seems like a person that would get angry and give up.

Jack blinked at Mark, his question took him by surprise, win? I mean, it's not impossible, "erm, oh, maybe" Mark smiled gently at the other man's statement, maybe jack had a nice side that just needed to be brought out.
"OK good, now let's get you used to the game!" Pixel exclaimed, making both of them jump, they had nearly forgotten about her, "if you ask me to show your stats I will," she said and a screen appeared in front of each man.

In front of mark was a pink screen and pixel read out what it said, "so Mark, these are your stats. Right now you have three full hearts, that's your health. Your special ability hasn't been discovered yet, you can find it out later on in the game. Your special item is the warfstache, which is a pink mustache and it will activate when you need it. Right now you have nothing in your inventory but as you go through the game you will collect items. Both of you will start off with 10 coins and again, throughout the game, you will collect more coins and will be able to spend them. Jack, you're basically the same as Mark except you have a different special ability. Just like mark, you will find out what that is later. Your special item is a septic eye. We like to call him Sam. Both of you should know why you have those things as you special items and later you will get to use them. Now, the game. You will go through different places but make sure not to get hurt. Everytime you get hurt one of your hearts will drain. Once all three hearts have drained completely, you die. So don't get hurt. That's all you need to know for now, so you can go." To the right of them the door unlocked and opened. Mark looked at jack. Jack shrugged and headed to the door. "Oh wait!" Pixel stopped them, "I almost forgot, pick a weapon, just in case." On top of the table some weapons appeared. Jacks face lit up and he rushed to the table to examine each weapon. However, Mark was a bit weary. Yes, he did like violent video games but violence in real life? Maybe not. But then again was this even real life?

Mark headed towards the table where jack had already picked up a bow and some arrows. Mark scanned the items. A sword, guns, some futuristic looking things. Something glistened in the corner of his eye, a dagger. He picked it up, it was cold and hard in his hands but the wood felt warm and was smooth. Mark found a belt with the holder attacked to it so he tightened it around his waist. "Ok boys, you seem ready now, have fun and remember I'm here if you need anything, so just call my name." Both boys thanked pixel and left the room.

Soon they were engulfed by darkness except for a small light in the distance. Jack took the lead, taking long, confident strides whereas Mark followed using small steps. The light grew bigger and bigger and soon they could make out a few objects. Hanging was a light, small and round and below it there were three doors.

Firstly, there was the door on the left. It was an old door that looked like it could easily drop off it's hinges. Mark ran his hand down the wood it was rough on his skin yet it felt soft, like rotting wood. Secondly, there was the middle door. It was the opposite of the first door. It was new and shiny, as if it is from the future. It's silver metal reflected the small light making the darkness around them seem a lot lighter than it actually is. It's door frame was sharp and pointy and many flashing buttons were stuck to it. Next to it is the last door. This one looked soft and welcoming. From behind the door a small Amber glow reached our to them, pulling them into the warmth. It looked old but definitely not as old as the first one. This door wasn't rotting, it was smooth yet it had a nice rustic look to it. Both boys looked at the doors for a long time until Mark decided to break the awkward silence, "I like the third door, but I also like the first door. I don't think I want to go through the middle door, it's giving me killer robot vibes"
"I mean I like futuristic stuff but I'm with you, I don't think I want to be fighting robots, so how about the third door?" Jack suggested. Mark nodded in agreement and opened up the door.

A wave of heat hit them as the walked inside. It seemed like they were in a mansion or castle of some sort. Both of them stood in awe at the amazing room they were in. The ceiling was very high and elaborate, swirls and waves were engraved into it. Golden flowers laced large stone pillars and it went well with the elegant, blood red wallpaper. In the middle of the room was a large sofa and a table that sat in front of a large fire place. Roaring, the fire heated up the room nicely and it illuminated it too. Shadows dances on the wall and floor, yet the room was well lit.

Suddenly a small women entered the room, her blonde hair tied into a neat bun. She wore a black dress and a white apron. Behind her she dragged along a cart full of cleaning essentials. Bright feather dusters, a small dust pan and brush, a variety of brooms and mops, everything was there. The woman looked up and smiled gently, "you boys look like you're lost, how's you even get here?" She asked.
"Erm, it's a long story" Jack answered
"Wait," the woman mumbled to herself, as if she was thinking about something, "I'm sure my master said something about two guests, a women was talking to him earlier, maybe it's you two? Come on, follow me." She pushed her cart to the side and left the room, followed by Jack then Mark.

Wow I'm a rubbish human being, I was meant to update this yesterday like I said I would but forgot. I didn't forget completely but I was quite busy. So I've just woken up and I remembered I had to update, so here it is! Late is better than never I guess.

I know not many people are reading this but I quite like this book and it's the only one I can update right now (I have deleted the other one) so I'll keep updating.

Tell me what you think and next time I'll try my very best to update on Sunday.
Byeeeee👋
