《Revered Expert of Virtual Reality》Chapter 1: Back to the Past
Advertisement
Isaac's consciousness gently awakened after what seemed like a mere second of time.
What?... Am I not dead? Furthermore, the pain is gone...
Instantaneously, after what seemed like a mere heart beats worth of time his deep obsidian eyes gradually revealed itself. Yet, not even a mere second had passed before he went into action. Not even allowing a single moment for his eyes to adjust to the light his brain instantly set into motion, at a speed of much more of what a person's normal brain capacity could handle, he instantly assessed all the possible situations that he could possibly be in.
He was not ignorant. He was someone who even the gods would be jealous of. With a single glance, he could see that he was not in his old world. Or to be precise, he wasn't currently subsiding in the year of 2036. The year which changed the order of things in not only the virtual world of Paragon, but also the real world.
Without a doubt, he instantly knew that the time and place he was currently in was before the launch of Paragon. Oddly enough though even a genius would have its limits. How could it be possible that he managed to assess the time and place he was in at a pace which was even less than a half a second! That would simply be unheard of!
It was simple. Together with his incredible mind combined with the sight of his sister who was sitting across from him, he could easily determine that this was before the launch of Paragon.
After a single moment of nostalgia, he instantly knew that he had come back to the past. Calmly assessing his surroundings at superhuman speeds, he managed to determine that the place he currently subsided in was his old home, a place which he grew up in for 15 whole years with his beloved sister. A place which he couldn't forget even if he wanted to.

Yet oddly enough before even the space of another breath, he continued to assess the situation! This showed his exceedingly great mind because even after just experiencing the pain of death itself he didn't even allow himself a hair's breadth worth of time to control his emotions! Just what kind of a monster was this!?
He continued to operate at a speed which would make even the top geniuses cry, but amongst all this, it could be heard that he very quietly muttered to himself at a volume that only he himself could hear, "Fuck... The current year is definitely 2035, however the exact day I am not too sure about but it is definitely in the month of January!" Just these few words alone were enough to make it obvious that Isaac did not have any electronics. Otherwise, he could simply whip out whatever it may be, possibly an iPad and check the date. He found out the current time that he was in by simply glancing at the small poster outside their 17th-floor building which announced an event where the date of the event was 23/01/35! Not regarding whether the poster may be old because it definitely wouldn't be too far overdue because the city he was currently in was New York! People weren't that slack here to not even take off a poster which was possibly weeks old! But just with this, he knew that the launch of Paragon was near, and the gear would without a doubt be being sold!
But disregarding the validity of this poster and when Paragon will be released, it has to be made clear that they were in a 17th-floor building nearly a hundred metres into the air and the font size on the poster was definitely minuscule! Just what kind of godly eyesight was this!?

But looking across the table he finally tuned back to the sounds of the mortal world, and could once against hear the very distinct sound of thousands of cars whistling around.
"Ah! Isaac, what is wrong with you today? Listen to me!"
A cute voice could be heard across the table from him and the very sister which he died trying to save came into his line of sight.
Before when he saw his sister he had not let his mind run wild as he was just a few seconds ago still in a terrible situation, and still had to properly assess the situation. Yet, such was the abilities of a genius. One who was capable to think of what is the most important at a time of mayhem. Because without him, how could his sister possibly be saved? But now that he knew he was safe, his mind finally collapsed. As he finally let his emotions run wild.

So yea, sorry about the amateur drawing (・.・;) In any case, feel free to give feedback and thank you for reading.

Shadowrun: Blake Island School of Magic
It's a high tech, low life. It's the Seattle Metroplex in 2074. It rises like a steel and concrete cancer out of the earth. Poverty is rampant, corruption is everywhere, crime is out of control, corporations basically control everything, the old United States is fractured, magic has come back and now it turns out that humanity has been joined by elves, dwarves, orks and trolls. The old world ended but the rent is still due. Life goes on. You'd be surprised what people can adapt to, especially if they don't have a choice. One of the places where life goes on is just west of Seattle. Surrounded by the waters of the Puget Sound is an island. On that island is the Blake Island School of Magic. A decade ago it was known for producing some of the most talented awakened in the world. That reputation was hijacked by the wealthy corporate elite who now park their teenage children there. And since it's a boarding school, their parents mostly forget about them. Three young people, who are certainly not wealthy or elite, are chosen this year to attend this school of magic in hopes of revitalizing their reputation for talent. One from the ash drifts of the Puyallup Barrens, one from the most densely populated slum hive in the world and one from prison. This is their story. -- This story is set in the Shadowrun universe. If you're not familiar with Shadowrun, it mostly tells the stories of deniable mercenaries called shadowrunners in a cyberpunk dystopia. Instead of telling another story solely about shadowrunners, this story will tell the tale of young people navigating a world that is indifferent to them at best and actively hostile at worst. Shadowrunners will be in the story and we'll see them operate, but they won't be its main focus. This story originally began in 2017 as a passion project and continues to this day on the Somethingawful.com forums. The unedited version is over a million words strong. There are currently seven books in this series and I am currently in the process of editing them. If you read this story then you won't lack for content. -- The Topps Company, Inc. has sole ownership of the names, logo, artwork, marks, photographs, sounds, audio, video and/or any proprietary material used in connection with the game Shadowrun.
