Terror Infinity Side B

Chapter 1 - 1, BTOOOM.

Plot - “Want to know the meaning of life? Want to live... A real life?”

The world changes when you click YES.

In God’s dimension, you have to keep getting stronger, keep evolving to survive one horror movie after another. Do you kill everyone in your way to reach the end as a lone king? Or fight along with your comrades and survive through the support of friends?

Everything was just for staying alive. Until you find the secret of God’s dimension. Who is the real enemy?

Terror Infinity - Side B

In a new experiment to push man to evolve, God has decided to send people into the worlds of manga, anime, light novels, visual novels and video games.

Compared to horror movies, such worlds shouldn't be as terrifying and should be easily to return from, but... You would be very, very mistaken.

Welcome to Side B of God's World.

The Story so far -

Shin Kazama, an otaku disappointed in his life chose YES when God asked if he wanted to know the meaning of life and wanted to live a real life, and was transported to God's world of horrors and terror in his/her/its new experiment.

Shin, Hikari and Misaki survived their first mission in High School of the Dead/H.O.T.D thanks to the help of the veteran Player Aqua. They survived and then went to the Terminal Lobby where they could rest, train and make exchanges to God to increase their power for the next mission 10 days later.

Shin who received the most points and rank rewards in H.O.T.D was able to make amazing exchanges from God in preparation for the next mission and his own goal of one day evolving into the OP ( Over Powered ) main character of his dreams. What he acquired were the One-eyed Ghoul ( Tokyo Ghoul ) Genetic Mutation, Ki ( Life Force Energy ) and the magic weapon/subspace bag Na Ring. And with an assortment of other goods for the team's survival in the next mission he was ready to take on the world.

Now, Shin ( Who has gained great power and lost his virginity to the cool red head beauty Aqua ) and the rest of Team Japan were ready to embark on their next mission in God's dimension, Btooom!

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

A summery of Btooom -

Ryota Sakamoto is an unemployed 22 year old who lives with his mother and spends his days doing nothing but playing video games. In the real world, there may be nothing special about him, but online, he's one of the world's top players of the combat game using only bombs, called 'BTOOOM!'.

One day, he awakes on what appears to be a tropical island, though he has no memory of how he got there or why. While exploring the island, Ryota runs into a unknown man who attacks him by throwing a strange looking bomb at him. Ryota then realizes that both his life is in danger, and that he has somehow become trapped in a real-life version of his favorite game Btooom. Ryota and the other "players" must now survive through the nightmare to figure out the reason why they ended up in the game in the first place.

The world faded to black.

Shin and the others stepped into the beam of light and the next moment they entered a state of half awake and half alseep, yet this didn't last long. The first to recover was Shin and within the blink of an eye his vision came back.

Shin and the others all found themselves in a spacious wide space, and from all corners of the room a loud mechanical sound and rushing air could be heard. The ceilings, walls and floor were made of steel. In one corner of the room was a large screen and lined up along sides of the walls were soldiers armed with gun. It was a unfamiliar place for all of them, yet...

Shin: I know this place, or something like it.

That was my first thought after calming down and observing my surroundings. God said that the next mission was Btooom, so by all the metal and my ears popping, we must be on the cargo plane that the characters took to reach the island for the death game. But if this is Btooom... Where are the Main Characters or the other people on the island?

Shin: They're not here.

Shin looked once more around him, but he wasn't mistaken.

In the original Btoom there should have been more people on the cargo plane heading for the island, but besides Hikari, Misaki, Aqua and Shin himself there were only eleven other people lying on the metal floor of the plane. Their identities are most likely the new players to Gods world.

Aqua: Tsk, this is bad. Fifteen people. You won't get this kind of difficulty in an adventure manga with only slight sci-fi elements like Btooom's BIMs. God must have changed something.

Shin: Have you ever encountered this situation before?

Aqua: A few times and also I heard so from the veterans of God's Dimension before me. God can change the plot elements and difficulty of a mission. This happens randomly and usually ends with the player's party getting wiped. Of course you also get a generous amount of rewards for finishing it as compensation.

Misaki: Like enough points to go home?

Aqua: I wish. If it was that kind of deal I would be 100% certain that we would be wiped out.

Hikari: That is worrisome. Lets look at our watches for more information. Afterwards, we can find out just what has beeen changed.

Shin: Alright.

We all began to look at our watches to find more out about the mission this time around. It showed different data than during High School of the Dead. There was nothing about helping a main character. In fact, God was telling us to off one off.

The main character at that.

GOD'S MISSION

BTOOOM!, 15 MAN MISSION.

NON STORY PLOT.

MAIN QUEST: The Mission.

TOTAL SCORE: Pending.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

They were all overwhelmed, especially the three former newbie players. The sheer difficult and number of rewards for this mission was leagues ahead of when they were in H.O.T.D.

Kill the main character Ryota Sakamoto. Kill and collect the chips from NPCs. Kill Btooom Soldiers and Btooom Commanders. And if one could not complete the main quest by a certain number of days then it clearly states that all players will die. There were so many opponents and dangers that they actually had to fight, but if one could survive this mission then one would gain lots of points and rewards.

1000 points for the basic reward for entering a mission and surviving.

A Combat Mission reward of 1000 and D rank reward.

10 points per NPC Chip.

100 and D rank reward for every Btooom Soldier Chip.

500 and C rank reward for every Btooom Commander Chips.

Lastly, defeating the main character himself would earn 6000 points and a B rank reward if you did it alone.

The mission held extreme dangers, but equal amount of rewards for our troubles.

Misaki: Guys look! There is something strange on the back of our hands.

Hikari: Where?!

Aqua: ...

Shin: He's right. It's the IC Chip!

We all looked at our hands and found what Misaki was talking about.

On the back of our left hand was a piece of metal in the shape of a oval chip. It was the multipurpose IC Chip that was a key element in the story of Btooom, yet it was slightly different. In the original story chips were green in color, yet all of ours were colored blue.

Hikari: What are these blue Chips?

Shin: These chips on the back of our hands are the chips mentioned in the mission that we have to collect. Everyone on the island had one that they need to collect from other players. They also function as a radar. As for the color, it is probably meant to show that we are players, not NPCs or original characters from the manga which were green and not blue.

Hikari: I see. Then lets discuss the mission details. This Ryuta that we have to defeat within seven days is the main character, right?

Shin: Correct. On record he is the leader of the tenth place team in the online game of Btooom, a game where players fight with only bombs called BIM. In real life Ryuta is just a NEET... (When I just called him that, Hikari gave me a "What right do you have to call some that?" look. Shut up!), but once he is transported to the death game he finds that his skills in the game Btooom carry over into real life ( Kinda like me, although I have no real life skills if you don't count Anime knowledge a skill ).

Misaki: Is he strong? What are our chances?

Shin: If people are just relying on BIMs then he is the strongest. We have guns and grenades at our disposal, so we have a good shot at beating him, but he is a tricky enemy to face. Out of all of us, I am only confident that Aqua could defeat him. It's just...

Misaki: Just?

Shin: He isn't an opponent that we should get 6000 points and a rank B reward for defeating. Like I said, in a battle with just bombs he is the strongest. We have guns, grenades, magic attack scrolls and both Aqua and I have abilities above the average human. Even if God placed a restriction on us like we can only uses BIMs, at best Ryuta is a 500-1000 point opponent with a D rank reward as the prize.

Hikari: Your the expert on this story, so if we were to take your opinion into consideration... Then God must have changed the story in a way to make him a 6000 point and B rank reward enemy for us.

Aqua: God definitely changed the plot with this fifteen man mission, but we shouldn't concern ourselves with him yet. He will not appear till the very last day after all. What I am more worried about are these Btooom Soldiers and Commanders. So you know about them Shin?

Shin: No. Btooom Soldiers or Commanders, they didn't appear in the main storyline. My best guess is that they are professional Btooom players God has created.

Misaki: For what purpose?

Hikari: To kill us. If our opponents were just average people throwing around bombs then this mission would at best be one or two levels higher then High School of the Dead. Not a fifteen man mission like this. I can't help but feel that we really are about to be wiped out.

Aqua: Well, if one is not afraid of danger and is skilled in combat then this is the best mission possible with all the points and rewards. Any of you know the story other then Shin? All I know is that they fight with those bombs instead of guns.

Misaki: No.

Hikari: Not at all.

Shin: You guys are so unprofessional. Btooom is a very popular manga and since our lives are on the line, then you should review even the oldest manga, anime and games. Especially if this dimension existed since the ancient times. The plot of Btooom is...

???: Btooom occurred in a modern day society just like ours. There was nothing obviously different about this world, but in the darker part of society where the rich and powerful rule, a certain project was proposed.

Interrupting Shin who was about to explain the plot of Btooom was one of the newbie players who had just stood up from the floor. A woman in her late 20's with a common face and body that doesn't standout, with the exception of her white lab coat. She had an aura of wisdom around her, yet had the slightest look of unease on her face. Shin was the first to recover from the surprise and greeted her.

Shin: My name is Shin. High school, or former high school student I should say now. Welcome.

Saki: Nice to meet you. My name is Saki... Now if it isn't too much trouble could you tell me where this place is? If I am not mistaken... We are in the back of a cargo plane.

Shin: I don't mind, but could you continue your explanation about the story of Btooom. I know it as well, but since it sounded like you could give more then a wiki like answer, I would like you to finish first. It is important.

The Saki sighed at little, was really was felling anxiety from her situation, but did as she was asked and told us her version of the story of Btooom with the upmost seriousness. Saki seemed like someone who couldn't be overwhelmed too easily.

Saki: If you insist. By the not so realistic power to be that secrecy control the world from the shadows, a project was proposed by a thriving game company, Tyrannos Japan, was carried out. The project was to have ordinary citizens pick out criminals, or more accurately people who are a stain on society and have them kidnapped and brought to undiscovered privately owned island. These outcast were then forced to play a cruel death game based on a popular online game in that world, Btooom. Using a certain type of bomb that doesn't exist in reality, but in the very same online game, BIM, to kill one another with a promise that if they did as they were told they could return to society. But let me point out that this death game wasn't actually a twisted way to cleanse society of its human trash, but for the mere pleasure of those watching the game from their TV screens. The death games that have happened before the beginning of the manga were all prototypes of the finalized game they were actually considering showing the public. The game that the main character was brought to was to be the final death game to work out all the bugs and was being broadcasted too many potential sponsors. Then as the manga goes on the main character, Ryuta Sakamoto slowly discovers the truth of the game. He then decided that not only will he survive the death game, but will do everything in his power to permanently end the death game. The manga has yet to end, so that is the full story as of date. If you want more information on the characters then I propose that you just read the manga. It has some nonrealistic elements, but I found it to be a good read. The idea of that type of death game with it's back story isn't uncommon, but for the main weapons to be bombs and the main characters just normal humans... Is quite exciting and interesting. Gun were by conception to be an easy to use weapon that anyone can become proficient with. Even a child can hold and shoot with a handgun and kill, yet bombs are a different story all together. When throwing a bomb you need to measure distance and be aware of arm strength, for timers you need a good mental clock and planning ability to lead your opponent into your trap, and with the implosion and barrier bombs into the mix to keep you on edge, you need real strength and smarts to survive.

When Saki was finished her explanation, all the newbies who have yet to wake up were finally up and about. A few were complaining to us about where we were and why the hell were we talking about Btooom! the manga on a plane to god knows where, but I gave them no mind.

They weren't important.

The ones who had my attention were the few who didn't panic right away and were listening to everyone to gather more information. These type of newbies were good. Long as you could show them proof that this wasn't all fake and was the world of a manga, they would form their own judgment and make the correct decisions. Looking back, in High School of the Dead, among us, the ones who adjusted right away were the ones who survived in the end.

To survive.

Not those with clear greater strength then others or those who believe that they are smart enough to live through these horrors, but the ones who have a desire and talent for surviving will be the ones who make it out of this alive.

Shin: I'll survive again. We all will.

The Combat Mission Reward are for mission that require you not only to survive, but to defeat a enemy, or a player is asked to complete a hard Main Quest objective, meaning a mission which is not an option.

I didn't get why some missions get an extra 1000 points it in the original Terror Infinity for completing a movie, and other do not.

Resident Evil didn't.

Alien had both a base and a special reward of 1000 points and D rank reward.

The Grudge didn't, but you didn't have to defeat the ghost to complete the mission.

The Mummy doesn't look to have it either at first. Only a rank D reward, since at only negative 2000 they could have not of fought Team India, and just could complete the mission. That mission had so many ups and down with points I don't know what is what anymore even after the fact.

My best guess is that there was a base reward 1000, combat reward 1000 and a 1000 Points Team battle reward by looking at how a newbie who killed an enemy Player had 5000 points by the end. This confused the heck out of me and so does the messed up math. For that reason, I have gave my own interpretation.

Some of you will notice later on that there are four similar character from the original, so let me say 3/4 are those characters exactly, and the fourth is a different version of Xuan who is here in the story that will become the bridge to my new ideas for my Terror Infinity... And I just needed a smart Player this time around. Also, of these four character two weren't allowed to shine so I am going to change that up. Also, this chapter was released around the time of the original's fourth mission was translated, so the characters that I wanted to give a second chance were all but confirmed permanently dead.

Also, in this arc the Genetic Constraint and other things are brought up like in the original, so I'm saying this now. I'm not writing this knowing that everyone has read the original first and know everything. I've been told by fans that they didn't like that I brought up certain things that appeared in the original Terror Infinity, and made it seem like a carbon copy or was a pain to reread. The Genetic Constraint, explanations about the Exchange System, and other things will he written to full or modified to show my opinion on things, but more importantly this is Shin's story. He hasn't read Terror Infinity, so he has to learn everything firsthand and I'm not going to write three sentences to sum things up. Time and time again we're going to revisit certain subjects from the original so just telling you now.

Let me say here that there will be a lot of fighting in this arc, but it has been a while since I wrote battle scenes for a story, so it is kinda... Ok I geuss, but I believe it gets better and better towards the end.

Now for my release schedule for Mission 2 of Terror Infinity - Side B.

Terror Infinity - Side B chapters for Mission 2 will be released every day, but will take a break once we reach BTOOOM's Intermission. The reason is that the Intermission will be especially long so that I can bring in original elements to my story not found in the original to my knowledge ( I just follow the translations ). Also, the mission itself this time around is longer the the whole of H.O.T.D mission and intermission. The break will last 4-6 weeks, and will be back in one month at the earliest.

Lastly, if any of you were disappointed that after the wait this chapter wasn't very long don't be. This is just how the chapter turned out, but don't worry. My daily releases may only go up to the final battle, yet the average chapter content is longer then the entire first arc of H.O.T.D's twelve chapter. Look forward to it!

Thank you all for reading this FF, and enjoy Mission 2 of Terror Infinity - Side B, BTOOOM.
