Jai's POV:
I haven't talked to Justin and Nathan for a while ever since the summer break. I wonder what they're both up to, I mean I miss the dudes always being around. Every since summer started we kind of drifted apart. I missed how we used to play pranks on each other, no matter how messed up they were. So, I decided to call them and ask if they wanted to hangout.
CONVERSATION:
Jai: Hey, guys wanna hangout?
Justin & Nathan: OH HELL NO.
Jai: SASSY LITTLE BITCHES.
Justin & Nathan: K, sure what time? JERK FACE.
Jai: @2:30pm you jerks.
Justin: Okay ugly asshole.
Nathan: Oh yea you forgot to tell us where, smarty pants.
Jai: Urm, the mall? Fast food restaurant? You pick, dick head.
Justin: What about a restaurant in the mall? Huh, never thought of that did ya?
Nathan: Oh yeah, that sounds good.
Jai: K, see you there.
END OF CONVERSATION.
Justin's POV:
I was hanging out with Nath and Jai suddenly called. He asked us if we wanted to hangout. I mean sure but I don't know, we haven't talked in like forever.
I asked Nath if he wanted to go, he said, yes. Oh well, why not? We acted sarcastic throughout literally our entire conversation, that's just how our friendship works you know?
So we decided to go a restaurant at the mall, @2:30pm. Well, it's 1:55pm right now so I'm going to get ready.
At the Mall
Me and Nathan arrived at the mall. I checked the time, it was 2:13pm. We had a few minutes to look around before we had to meet Jai. We went into HMV since it was near the food court. 17 minutes later we met up with Jai, we decided to go to McDonalds, nothing too fancy, so yeah. We took our seats and talked about what we did during our summer break so far, it seemed like all of us had something in common, we all bumped into this one girl that immediately grabbed our attention, interesting.

Ariana's POV:
I went to the grocery store to pick up some food, besides, my mom has done so much for our family so I wanted to give back to her. When I was done, I pushed the cart outside and noticed 3 familiar faces. I was stunned. It was Jai, Justin and Nathan. I ran up to them and said "Hi!" with a big smile on my face. "Hi, Ariana." Nathan said with his cute little smile. "Oh, Hello Ariana!" said Justin, "Oh, Hey Ariana!" Jai said lastly. They all turned to face each other with confused expressions on their faces, "I didn't know you guys knew each other!" I said happily. They turned back to me, with half smiles on their faces. Well this is awkward. "Well, I have to get going now, it was nice seeing you guys again, bye!" I said.
END OF POV.
Jai: "Wait, you guys know her?"
Nathan: "Well, I thought I was the only one until you guys said hi.."
Justin: "Wait, was that the girl we all were talking about?
Jai & Nathan: "Yeah, seems like it."
Jai: "JINX YOU OWE ME A SODA"
Nathan: "OH BITCH PLEASE!"
Justin: *shakes head, face palms* idiots, just idiots.

The 8th Day
One day life is good. The next day it isn't! The boundaries between... well, whatever they're between.. have shattered! Monsters burst out from cracks in the universe, and reality suddenly begins to function similar to a game -- but not a game that anyone knows all the rules about! Magic is suddenly real, but so are monsters and death! Lots of death!And the worst part of it all? I think we did it to ourselves! We invented video games, and personally I think that great Finger-in-the-Sky picked up a console somewhere and started playing them. Since He liked what he saw, he must've declared, """"On the 8th Day, let there be Game!"But what do I know about it all, really. After all, I'm just """"The Witness"""" forced to observe it all.__________________________________________________________________________Author's Note: There's a lot of tales where characters get stuck in a Virtual Reality. """"Sword Art Online"""", """"Log Horizon"""", """"The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor"""". This is a story told with the premise inverted -- instead of a person from reality going into a virtual world, what would happen if the virtual world instead came to reality?I want this tale to speak about the aspects of the game, as it has affected the current reality, but the focus of the story should never be on the """"reality-turned-game"""" itself, but on the characters and their oh-so-human struggles, personalities, and attempt to adjust and live within the bounds of their new existence. Hopefully this won't just be a story of """"reality turned into a game"""", but instead will be something more meaningful such as a story of the strengths, perseverance, and humanity of man-kind as they try to adapt and face the unknown.*** And, most importantly, I hope everyone enjoys reading it as much as I've enjoyed writing it. ***WARNING: RATED MATURE M[18+] FOR GORE, SEX, VIOLENCE. The apocalypse isn't a pretty place to try to survive in, and neither is every scene in a story trying to describe it.

Parental Controls
Reeve Williams always felt more at home in vivid virtual reality than in drab real reality, partly as an escape from the very real embarrassment of her technically inept parents, Walter and Wanda. When Reeve’s parents give her a new total-immersion virtual reality system for her birthday, Reeve reluctantly agrees to show them what it’s like…just for a few minutes. But a mistake only her technophobe father would make leaves Reeve facing the prospect of spending months in the greatly accelerated, fantastically complex, brutally unforgiving game world. With her parents. Posts will be every M/W/F. If I ever decide to try to turn Parental Controls into an ebook, I won't do so in such a way that I'd need to take down what I've posted to Royal Road. Thanks for reading!

Dragons of Dark Rebellion in A World of Essence
In a world where cultivation is the highest form of virtue, the purity of one’s blood is of absolute value. Saul is neither Arloni, nor Delcairan. He’s both. But when a strange ring suddenly falls into his hands, nineteen year old Saul is more than willing to push the boundary between fantasy and reality. However, things are not as they once were in Falden. At a time where Saul finally confronts lord Albryte’s sons after years of torment and abuse, his father’s health is fading fast. Suddenly faced with the consequences of his actions, Saul is forced to make a difficult decision. And as he fights his own battle, dark forces descend upon Lucidia. Followed by a pair of glowing red eyes, a stranger appears in the night, visiting Falden with unfavorable intentions. Even worse, nameless assassins strike at the heart of the capital, leaving Eliza Zaryph, the black sheep of the ruling house of Lucidia, shouldering the burden of governing a kingdom that once turned its back on her. As the world marches toward chaos, their lives take a drastic turn. Will Saul abandon those he holds most dear? Will Eliza drown herself in the past? Or will they struggle against fate and seize the future with their own hands? Tomorrow remains uncertain. But the Sun will show them the way. Author's Note: Inspired by the Wuxia/Xianxia genre the magic system is comprised of cultivating through different Worlds of power, where each World offers more strength and abilities. Currently there are five Worlds known: Essence Practitioner, Essence Channeler, Essence Warrior, Essence Conquerer, and finally Essence Ruler. (And for the best reading experience I recomend altering your width setting to about 70 or 80 percent on desktop.) Table of Contents: Prologue Part 1: Homecoming (chapters 1-12) Part 2: Journey (chapters 13-25) About 70 percent complete. I'll update this figure over time and begin posting again after I finish it and go through several rounds of editing.
