Evan's POV
I wake up and groan. My arm still hurt. So. It wasn't a dream... I open my eyes and see a girl staring at me. I yelp and scoot back, hurting my arm. "Woah woah. Calm down bro." She says. "Wh-where am I?" I ask. She looks around. "My house." She says. I blink. "Yeah but. Where? Last I remember I was at my house in LA with my wife, going to sleep. Now I'm here." I say. She blinks. "Wait. You aren't an NPC?" She asks. "No!" I snap. "Oh my God. Oh my God. A human! Human! I'm not alone anymore!" She cheers and jumps around. "That's not helping me." I say. She stops and calms down. She then smiles. "Well Vanoss. Welcome to Grand Theft Auto five." She says. I blink. "How'd you know my name?" I ask. "Look above my head. Focus. You'll see my name and HP." She says. I squint. She was right. "Benja... Mithzan...." I say. "Yup! But call me Ben." She says. "Ok... Ben... How'd we get here?" I ask. "No idea. I just woke up here one day. All I had was a note saying welcome to gtaV and that if I die here I die in the real world. I'm probably already dead in the real world though. I lived alone so I'm probably rotting away." She says. "How old are you? How long have you been here?" I ask. "I'm 14 and I've been here for two years!" She cheers and walks out. I stand up and follow him. "Two years?!" I ask. "Yep! I haven't been able to find a way out. So I just gave up after a year of searching. I went through a million easter eggs, gliches, and so on. Nothing works." She explains and gets to the kitchen. "Why.... why did you live alone? You were only twelve when you got here right?" I ask. She nods. "Yup! I ran away from home at the age 9. I met this rich guy. He let me live with him. Then he died and I got his mansion. I was able to get a job. Not to mention I had all his money. I was saving $60,000 for college and had $80,000 left for myself. I just used it for food, a phone, and a pc. Blah blah. Now I'm here. I have a job at the automotive place because it's the only safe zone along with the gun shop. I have this nice house and lots of cars and jets and every other thing you can imagine." She explains. I nod. "Oh." I say. She hands me a sandwich and a cup of oj. "Yep. It's nice here. I'll admit that. But. I miss real life you know? I don't even remember my friends or family's faces...." She says sadly. We eat in silence. Sydney. What about her? And all my friends. Something dings. I look at Ben. She swipes down and some type of menu appears in front of her. "What? There are 5 other players other than us. What is the game master doing?" He asks. "Game master?" I ask. "The guy who sent us here. I don't know his name so I gave him or her one. They seem to like it. Anyway we should go help those other guys." She says. I nod and follow her. We walk to her garage. Which is huge! "Choose a car." She says. I look around. "This one." I say and point to a bat mobile looking one. We get in and she starts driving. This car was fast. She swipes and taps a few things. "Ok... they're all in the same apartment building. Good." She says, studying the map. Later we stop in front of the building I walked out of. She gets out and I follow her. We walk to a receptionist. "Where are players 3-8 living?" Ben asks. The lady hands her a slip. We go to the elevator and get in.
Jonathan's POV
I wake up to knocking on the door. I groan and open my door. Evan, Ryan, Luke, David, Tyler, and a girl stood there. They were all in their gta outfits. "Why are you guys dressed up and shit?" I ask and rub my eye. They come in. I shrug and close the door. I turn around and freeze. This isn't my room. "Ok. Now can you explain where we are?" Tyler asks. I look down. I'm wearing a teddy bear onesie! "After Delirious gets dressed." The girl says. How does the girl know my name? I run and get dressed in my gta outfit. That's all I had really other than a Santa suit. I walk into the living room and see everyone is silently eating. The girl hands me a plate with a sandwich on it. "Eat breakfast then I'll explain everything." She says. I nod and eat. We all finish. "Ok.... You guys.... are no longer in the real world. You're now in the game gtaV. This is the beta version. They're trying to make the first ever VR system that you can actually live in. Sadly... the beta was shut down. The game master was pissed. So he kidnapped a few people and sent them in. Me being one of them. Sadly... in this game. If you die here. You don't respawn. You die in real life..." She says. "Are we even in the real world?" Ohm asks. "Yep. Swipe down. A menu will appear. Go to status and you'll see a pulse and hospital status stuff." She says. I do and she was right. "Woah! Mine's all weird!" Vanoss says. "That's from your gun shots. You must have bled alot in the real world." She says. "You got shot?!" I ask. "Yeah. The cops are total crap here. Just like gta." Vanoss mutters. "It says my status is stable now." He adds. I look. Yeah mine is stable too. "What about yours Ben?" Vanoss asks. So her name is Ben? She frowns. "Status dead. Time of death July 7, 2015." She says. "You're dead in the real world? How are you here than?" David asks. "The game master wants me here I guess..." She says. "Game master?" Cartoonz asks. "The guy who put us here." Vanoss says. Makes sense. We all sit in silence. "How do we get out of here?" Ohm asks. The two go silent. "Vanoss..." Nogla says. "We can't. I've spent the past two years looking for the way out. There isn't. Just... have fun." Ben says. "We all have someone to go to back at home! Girlfriends, boyfriends, wives, fans, friends and family!" Tyler shouts. "IF I KNEW HOW TO GET OUT OF HERE DO YOU THINK I WOULD STILL BE HERE?!" Ben shouts. She tears up. "Ben..." Cartoonz mutters. "I had a company to get back to. I had a job. School. Friends.... I didn't have as much as you guys did but I still had things I held dear to me. Imagine a 12 year old girl wakes up in this game with a few other adult beta testers. They died. In front of that 12 year old girl's eyes. Slowly. One by one. Killed by cops, npc's, suicides, murder between themselves... then she had to live in this place for almost two whole years all alone. She had to work her way up to where she is. Imagine how that would feel." She says. We all go silent. That... that is awful. She went through so much.
