Prologue

-: Is it going to end like this?

* sceneries of people running *

-: What did humans do to end up like this?

* standing up slowly while grabbing to his dagger *

-: No, I won‟t let this happen

* Jumps off the building to the center of flames *

* Beep … Beep … *

* wakes up and looks at the clock *

-: Oh, no! I‟m gonna be late.

* gets ready fast and runs toward the school *

* He’s 10 minutes late, so he tries to sneak in without anyone noticing *

Mr. Brown (The president) shouts: Mr.Cane, where are you going? Come to

my office …

-: Oh, no

Pres. : Thomas Cane, you were late almost every day and also skipped

classes more than we can count. Do you have anything to say?

-: I‟m sorry, sir. I didn‟t mean to be late, I just overslept a bit. I always turn on

my alarm clock, but it‟s too old and broken …

Pres. : That‟s not a good excuse, Thomas. I know you lost your parents so

soon in life, but you should study hard, so that they will be proud of you in heaven.

I know you skip classes so that you can work more, and I respect that, but you

should also pay attention to your lessons.

-: Ok, sir. I‟m sorry, it won‟t happen again. Can I go to my class now?

Pres. : yes, and try not to make any more problems

* He walks towards the classroom and sits on his chair, the teacher

comes and the class starts *

* In the middle of lesson, he falls asleep *

Unknown Voice: Humans shall be punished. My soldiers, who thy and thy

families‟ lives are at risk because of humans, rise and help me rebuild this world.

-: What the hell is that?

Faint Voice: Mr.Cane, Mr.Cane, … wake up …

* suddenly wakes up and finds his teacher in front of him *

Teacher: Mr.Cane, is my lesson that boring?

-: No, sir. I‟m sorry. I … I was just a bit tired. I won‟t do it again, I promise.

Teacher: There is no other time, Mr.Cane. Answer the question on the bored

if you can, if you can‟t, you can leave and sleep to your heart‟s extent at home.

* looks at the board and answers shyly *

-: I‟m sorry. I can‟t answer that.

* He leaves class and goes to the rooftop to get some fresh air *

-: Oh, man. What a day! Getting caught by the president, listening to all his

nagging, and now getting kicked out of class … Uhhh … but what was that dream?

It felt so real … whatever … let‟s go home

* opens the door, but suddenly everything goes black *

-: Electricity shortage? But it‟s still day, so it shouldn‟t be that dark. What‟s

happening? …

* suddenly the door disappears *

* Then some black flames appear in some places and make the

environment a bit visible *

Unknown Voice: Filthy human, how dare thee enter this holy place. I will burn

thee to ashes, so that it will be a warning for the likes of you. Taste the fire of

underworld.

* A huge orb of black fire appeared out of nowhere in the sky then it

went towards Thomas *

-: Omg! What the hell is this? It should be a dream, yeah, that‟s it , I‟m

dreaming …

* takes a few steps back and falls as he trips *

-: Ouch! Omg! It hurts, it‟s real , it‟s real …

* Then he runs like crazy, but no matter how fast he runs, the orb was

bigger than what he could escape *

* His stamina runs out and he falls down as he is out of breath *

-: Is it the end for me? What did I do to deserve this? This is not fair. I don‟t

want to die …

* The orb comes nearer and nearer *

* suddenly a small orb of light comes and says: *

“Will you become the pawn of light? If you agree, I can help you. If not, you

will die”

-: Ok, I agree. Please help meeeee…

* He says that and then faints *

Faint Voice: Beep … Beep … Reorganizing pawn‟s body ended. Starting the

system …

* falls back to sleep *

Faint Voice : Thomas, Thomas, why are you sleeping here? Don‟t you know

that rooftop is off limits?

-: President? Where is that orb of fire? What happened? …

Pres. : What are you talking about? You can‟t escape explaining by telling

nonsense. You‟d better have a good explanation of why you are on the rooftop.

* After listening to a lot of nagging, he leaves school *

-: So it was a dream, but it felt so real, I even felt pain … and what was that

about reorganizing, or pawn, or “system” …

* After saying the word “system” there was a sound in his head*

“System starting … Pawn number 7 has entered the system … Preparing

teleportation …

-: wait … what‟s happening? … Teleport to where? … Is it even possible? …

System: Preparation ended … starting teleportation to base …

* Suddenly he saw his hands disappearing bit by bit and then everything went black.
