Hunter Universe (hunterxhunter)

Chapter 15

You walked inside slowly, confused at the sight before you. There were many plants, once again, but the scary thing was that the vines seemed to move. It was creepy yet beautiful, and gave you mixed feelings. There were also some lights flickering throughout the whole room, which seemed much bigger than from the outside. Exotic and confusing creature were flying, jumping and swinging, making weird sounds and actions. One glided so close to your face, you took a step back, cautiously looking around. This was some next level Alice of wonderland shit.

"Hello there, little girl," you heard a voice of a woman. It took you some time to notice the small, wrinkly old lady sitting in an insane green throne, stroking a - what is that? Never mind, you don't want to know.

"Before I tell you the reason that you came here, I want to ask you a few questions," the woman spoke, calmly and seemed very intimidating. You gulped. You saw so much today, that it seemed that nothing would faze you. That was wrong. You stood there, in anticipation and horror of what the questions were going to be like.

"What do you think of this place? Ah, it was so boring and gray before! Now that I became the leader, I instantly spiced up this place with my lovely babies. Look at Bob! He is so much happier now!" You were speechless. One second there is a scary witch of the forest in front of you, the next moment she turns into a rambling old hag who seemed out of her mind. You glanced at Bob, who sighed once again in his corner. You felt sorry for him, dealing with this weird woman and her quirks. You looked back at the woman who was mumbling and laughing to herself now.

You gathered up the courage to actually say something.
"This place is lovely... but, what am I here for? What is this place?" Your voice was barely above a whisper. The woman stopped laughing, looked at you and smirked.
"Right, so about that. You are in the NACS headquarters."
"And that would be?" You carefully asked.
"National Anime Control and Security of course!" The woman seemed shocked that you asked.
"Right, sorry. And why am I here exactly?"

"Geez, patience lady!" The hag rolled her eyes and you shut up, waiting in silence for her next actions, "Here at NACS, we keep track of all the anime worlds and characters that currently exist. All of the animated stories you have seen and will see, are filmed here."

You had to take a moment to let all of that sink in. What you heard seemed fake, unbelievable. The hag looked at your confusion, laughed before carrying on, "this might all seem fake news, but I tell you, it isn't. All those famous mangakas and artists, as well as animators, are all agents sent to your world to deliver the series to all of your dumb people wanting some entertainment."

You weren't sure whether to feel offended or surprised. Shocked was a good word. You stood there, your legs weak and threatening to fall. You couldn't move though, and continued to listen in awe what this crazy grandma was babbling to you.

"How come you ask? Well, this is in fact one large business, in your world referred to as the 'anime industry'. Honey, this however, is the real deal. Here is where all the magic happens. Here is where the characters are being filmed, where the stories all take place."

"So wait, are you saying that they're all actors?" Although you were not even close to believing everything that came out of the woman's mouth, you couldn't help but want to know more. The woman looked generally offended.
"How dare you think that? Of course not! All the actions that occur, are being filmed real time using out hidden installed cameras floating in the atmosphere. The characters don't even know they are being filmed. They just do their own thing, while people who work here then edit the footage, cutting out the boring parts, and compress the sound and video files into episodes."

"Woah, just, woah..." there was no way in hell you were going to believe all that. You were kidnapped, brought to some weird place with a strange grandma and told that your whole life of anime fangirling was a lie? Well, almost a lie.
"I know it's hard to believe, but, you're here and seeing all of this. You weren't supposed to even appear in the first place. There must have been a technology malfunction that created a black hole type suction and brought you here." The woman suddenly got serious. "That is exactly the reason why we have brought you here."

Your heart started thumping very fast and hard for some reason. What were they going to do to you? Kill me? Get rid of the evidence by burning my body?

"You will have to leave this place, forever, to keep peace and balance between earth and Hunter Universe"

Okay, so. Naturally, I don't have any plans, so I was kinda bullshitting through this chapter, but I hope it is interesting. There are not so many left to go! Also, did you see my use of title in the story?( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ok, bye! Update may or may not be coming today!
