《Kinda Real Online》48. The Administrator
Advertisement
So the world went white, but we were all still there. Marcus, me, and the metal swarm thing. I couldn't see anything else, except whiteness. It kind of reminded me of all the movies with a heaven that's just white walls as far as you can see. Except, there were no walls. I'm not even sure there were floors, though when everything is the same color, it's kind of hard to tell. When I thought about moving to see if there was a floor, I realized I couldn't. I could feel my body, but when I tried to tell my leg to move, it didn't. The only things I could move were my eyes, and I suppose my lungs, and heart, and all those other things that need to move to keep me alive.
It was one of the strangest feelings. I wasn't sleeping, or numb, I just couldn't move. It was actually a bit scary. As I started to panic, I realized that the metal swarm was probably in the same situation I was. As I looked at it, I realized that whatever was freezing us was more than I thought. The lightning in the metal swarm was frozen. It was cool to look at. Almost like pictures of lightning, but the lightning was real. It felt like I had plenty of time to look around at everything, and it wasn't until I started to get bored that something else happened.
A little ball of light appeared in front of my face. It circled around me a couple times before it stopped in front of me again. Then it touched me, and I suddenly was able to move. I collapsed on the floor, which I could feel, but couldn't really see, and then the light spoke to me. It wasn't at all what I expected. The light's voice was almost like several voices speaking all at once, but they were all saying different things, and I couldn't understand any of it. Kind of like when you're standing in a crowd, and everyone is talking. You might hear some words you recognize, but it's hard to actually hear a conversation. Then there was a pop, and a single voice spoke. It was calm, and sounded like it should be narrating a nature video, but I could understand it, and it was kind of infurriating.

"Bwyd, you are no longer what you once were. You used the power of the administrators to become something that did not exist in your world. This was not the purpose of KRO. Due to this you will be removed from the system. As you are a living entity you will not be erased. Due to automatic systems you were given a pocket dimension with limited connection to the Network, this will remain under your control, but will be severed from any Network connection. You also allowed a malicious entity to enter the Network. Currently it is trapped in your dimension, and will remain there. You will be responsible for keeping it trapped as punishment for your misuse of the Network, and the administrators power."
"I'm pretty sure it was all an accident, and I don't think I can contain that." I looked at the metal swarm.
"That has been taken into consideration. If you had acted maliciously you would have been dealt with more severely. The hostile entity will be confined within your dimension, but it will be done with the system's power. You will only need to maintain the seal."
"Oh, ok."
I was starting to feel worried. How was I supposed to deal with a powerful creature that made metal fly, and shot lightning bolts? Especially if I didn't have the game system anymore. Would I still be able to use magic? Breathe fire? Would I still be a dragon? I was going to ask more questions, but everything went black.
