The bright, deafening light surrounded him once more, the Christmas tree slowly appearing as that same little boy took shape.
The little boy who introduced himself as part of a game-system mechanic.
Then, he began speaking again.
[How are you doing, Cassien?]
"Doing just fine, thanks for asking…" He waited for the interface to pop up until it finally did, "Anyways, let's see here…"
[Great kill by the way, that was quite impressive.]
"You saw?" Cassien asked, "Then I would assume you also heard about my past."
[I most definitely did, and it was so intriguing. It made me take my eyes off all the other contestants and only focus on you.]
Cassien smiled, "Did it? I wonder how you would react if I told you that story was a lie."
[Huh?] That little boy shook for a second, then laughed calmly, [You're lying.]
Cassien laughed, "Am I? Who knows, really. Uhh, let's see here. System interface open."
