I was having cereal for breakfast at around 10am when I heard the doorbell ring, echoing throughout the entire house. My mum answered the door, I could hear mumbles, it wasn't clear as I was in the kitchen but I couldn't care less, I just carried on eating my chocolate flavoured cereal that comes with a little toy in each packet.

Footsteps started to approach the kitchen, but I carried on with my business, putting away my bowl and spoon. My mum then called me, telling me that someone was here to see me. Strange I thought, who would need to see me? Curious, I walked to the black table in the kitchen, which I had been sitting minutes before on, to find a man and woman sitting on it wearing black suits. Although nothing had happened yet, I felt that I should've worn something other than my blue, striped silk pyjamas, as it doesn't look as smart as the suits, but it definitely is fashionable. I bowed respectfully, saying hello. They stood up and bowed back, not sitting back down again.
"You are Kim Taehyung, age 16, am I right?"
The woman said.she had bright orange hair, which was rather long and fell smoothly down her back. I nodded in reply to her question.
"I am Chae Soo-Bin, assistant of Mr. Yoo Seung-ho.I understand that you have been playing a game called Earth Saviours for just over 7 months, if I'm not wrong." She carried on, while momentarily looking down at the large touch pad she held in her slender arms.
"Yes, I have, but how do you know? What does this have to do with any of this right now?" I questioned, wondering what this is about. The dark haired man, Mr. Yoo, began to speak.
"We are the creators of the game you have spent time in, and we have been monitoring all the players to recruit only 7 for our game academy."
"Wait. You've been stalking everyone?"
"Monitoring. It's different to stalking. We only watch what you do in the games and monitor your movements and voices within the game."
"Oh. So what's a game academy though?"
"We only recruit the best players to come to our academy and practice their skills, as well as real life combat and intelligence."
"Is this a joke? Someone pranking me right now?"
"This is your choice to join our academy. 6 other gamers have also been chosen. This is a boarding school, do not forget. However, you make your choice now."
"Ah." I began to think, was this a joke? Maybe it is real. What if my online friends found out my location and have sent FBI spies to come against me and abduct me and throw me into a large tree? No that's a possibility but unlikely. Should I go? I looked at my mum. She nodded to me, signalling that it was good if I go. It was a hard choice. But I decided to go, if it was a prank though, I would lock myself in my room for the rest of my life.
"I'll come." I declared. "But I'll gather some stuff up first, give me 5 mins."

I ran upstairs, putting some clothes, my toothbrush and some other things that I would need when I go. I couldn't forget to pack a picture of my beautiful mum. She worked so hard to raise me and I could never forget her. Zipping up my suitcase, I ran downstairs with it, ready to leave.
