Having finished his psychology homework, Jared made haste to the game store to get his reserved copy of the new game that just came out a few minutes ago. The store was just a few blocks down, and already he could see the line. As far around the corner the store was, though, he couldn't tell where the line lead to. But, given the circumstances, he knew what direction the store was, and the line just happened to lead straight to it.
"Yep," he thought to himself, "that's the line."
Slowing himself down to a brisk walk, Jared took a moment to catch his breath as he stepped in the line that seemed like the line to Heaven in Purgatory. But he wanted the game more than anything, so he gathered his patience in the few seconds it took to step in line.
Several minutes passed, and Jared had managed to get as far as three feet. He sighed, whipping out his Retronome to play his favorite game of all time. The game was called "The Reaper." It was a classic game, he thought, and the game he reserved was the sequel: "The Reaper's Revenge." He had always admired the plot of The Reaper, for it took him into imaginary worlds that he had never imagined before, and that is saying something, he thought. The Reaper's Revenge, the sequel, took on a follow-up of the story as the Reaper was exiled from the underworld into the human world for being an outcast, and ever since, it had no other interest in the human world other than sneding them to wherence he came. As a player, Jared thought, it is up to you and your superstitious mind to track it and save the lives of the ones he targets and finally enter the dream world and deal with him directly. At least that is what he imagined, for the game he had was just mysterious deaths occuring in his city and he entered the dream world occasionally to look for the cause.
More minutes passed, and inch by inch Jared shuffled for which seemed to him like forever. The sing to the game store wasn't getting any bigger from his perspective, and every time he looked down to play his Retronome, the line behind him shunned him for his idolness.
