Virtual Reality

Date: 9/4/2019

Mean and my sibling were just chillin at the bus stop waiting to get picked up when all of a sudden, some wind picked up. The powerful wind quickly turned into a tornado. I ran away as quick as I could and left my sister behind. As I realized that my sisters were nowhere near me, I saw a big house with an open back door. I ran in to escape the storm only to find how sketchy the house was on the inside. Instead of sleeping in any of the bedrooms there were a couple blow up mattresses in the kitchen/living room area. The house was very nice but something was still off. A few things didn’t sit right with me, I asked myself why I would leave my sisters behind, I asked myself how tf a tornado formed in the middle of Arizona, and most importantly, why tf was this nice ass home open and empty? Sometimes when I’m dreaming I start to realize I’m in a dream and just wake up but this time everything felt so real and I couldn’t wake up. Just as I was about to leave I saw a big box with some sort of game consul in it. I enjoy video games so instead of leaving I hopped in. It was one of those weird virtual reality set ups but on another level. I didn’t understand how to work it and decided I should head out anyway and just as I was about to leave the same woman who I always see in my dreams was wearing a very fancy business suit and showed up out of nowhere. She told me that was I was sitting in was very dangerous. I asked what she meant and she started explaining that this virtual reality thing was so realistic that it was mess up my “young mind” She also told me that it was a top secret project that needed someone to test it on. At this point I was confused because she made it clear that it wasn’t safe but it seemed like she wanted me to try it. I decided to to try it out. She smirked and pressed a button which made the whole capsule type machine start to close. I was now in a small dark pod that had a very fancy gaming chair with seatbelts. I strapped myself in and put on a headset. A white screen opened up for a few seconds and I just sat there. Everything then turned into the inside of a plane the graphics were insane. I was admiring everything until it felt like someone punched me. Next thing I know, I’m hurdling towards the ground. I felt my body jerk in real life making it even scarier. Then I finally touched the ground and that la when I started to feel like I had real control. I wasn’t just moving a character with my controller, I could feel my legs moving, it took a few seconds to get used to and thts when I started doing the unimaginable. My dream turned into a lucid one and I just started running as fast as I could and was doing crazy parkour type stuff. It felt like forever. I understood why it was dangerous. It felt like i could never leave and I didn’t want to. After a while it started to shut down and the door slowly opened up. The lady was still there and said I was in it for six hours. She told me that the others went insane only after their second hour because they couldn’t handle the fact that they were basically in an alternate reality. She said that my time in the little box would be recorded and mentioned at conferences for the system. She said she wanted to run tests on me and tht I now had to undergo psychiatric evaluation because of how good I did. Long story short I did start to go insane. They thought it would be smart to make me go in longer and longer and each time I went in it got more and more realistic. After a while I could t tell what was real. Because this game was a top secret thing I too became too became too secret. I wasn’t allowed to contact my family after using it because of confidentiality. I started to remember that I lost my sisters and hadn’t seen them because these people controlled my life since the project was top secret. I tried to kill myself only to find out I was in the system again. I couldn’t get out, and when I was out I thought I was in. They did this on purpose for testing. My lucid dream started turning to a nightmare and that’s when I woke up all sweaty and gross .
