Silverhart Online 1 How did I end up here?

Gray Allister could only clutch his head in deep pain as struggled to regain his consciousness.

As his vision finally turns clear, the boy's eyes widen as he now finds himself somewhere lost in what it seems to be a forest, evident by the huge trees that surround him.

"How in the freaking blazes did I end up here?" Gray muttered under his breath, utterly confused by his present situation.

The boy knows better than to panic, calming himself down as he tries to remember the events that occurred before him being here in the first place.

'Let's see.' The boy thought with his eyes closed. 'I recalled being in my office working my ass off together with my team for the alpha stage of Silverhart Online. We were so exhausted in complying before the deadline that after we have finally finished most of the game's development, I immediately hit the sack.'

Gray in reflex smiled with pride as he thought of the game that they were making. It's not exactly in its beta stage yet, with too many bugs and errors that still need rectifying.

Silverhart Online.

It is an MMORPG situated in the vast open world of Silverhart, a magical place where fantasy and adventure awaits. It is also a land filled with strife and warfare, a never-ending battlefield where the player puts his skills up to the test by assuming one of the three primary classes of the game while performing quests and fighting an ongoing war for the people of the said world.

The three classes are simply the Warrior, Rogue, and Mage.

Gray suddenly realized that he was lost on his thoughts, snapping himself out of an instant as he has more pressing matters to attend to.

Like surviving in this godforsaken woods.

So his first order of business is to find a river as a source for clean water and find out more about his current situation.

After trekking around the forest for a while, Gray instantly breaths a sigh of relief, now finding a nearby open clearing with a river on it.

"Thank God," Gray said. "I thought I was a goner."

The boy then approaches the river to take a sip to quench his thirst. Finding himself at the water source, Gray could not believe his eyes at what he is seeing at this very moment.

His very own reflection.

"What in the actual fuck?!" Gray suddenly was taken back by the revelation, stumbling down with immense shock.

The reason why he is feeling astonished at this very moment is because of the fact that Gray Allister is by no means a young teenager.

He could have sworn that he is in his mid-thirties, a single man with no girlfriend since birth, a virgin no doubt.

Standing up as he regained his senses, Gray once more peered at his reflection, staring down at the very young-looking version of himself.

Gray is now shown to most likely 17, his youthful appearance radiating for the sun to bask upon. His face, now devoid of any wrinkles caused by the stress of his work.

Eyes blinking, Gray scratches his black messy hair as he now witnesses that he is actually wearing something like what normal townsfolk would most probably wear during the medieval ages. He is equipped with a simple white shirt with a brown patch covering a hole on the chest part. His lower garment consists of khaki long pants and a pair of black boots.

"This is so fucked up." Gray felt uneasy by all of this. "This must be some sort of dream, due to the stress that I and my team have accumulated for the past many days. Now I'm here in some kind of fantasy world probably as apparent by the clothes that I'm wearing."

As he was pondering on what his next course of action will be, a small rabbit suddenly appeared as the critter approaches Gray.

"What do we have here?" Gray chuckled as he saw the harmless and cute animal. Leaning below to tame it, the boy reaches out his hand. "You lost, little guy?"

Before he could even react, the rabbit suddenly bares it very sharp fangs, instantly ripping the hand as Gray shriek in intense pain.

"AHHH!!!!" Gray's black eyes widen in fear at seeing his hand torn out violently, blood gushing out from the severed part of his right arm.

The pain is indeed all too real for Gray, now realizing that it's definitely not a dream.

Adrenaline pumping in, Gray now runs for his life despite the unbearable pain, seeing as the rabbit is now spasming, twitching convulsively with saliva foams pouring from its mouth.

The rabbit then chases Gray, now seeing the human as its delicious prey.

Gray's eyes widen even further, witnessing the rabbit catching up to him rather quickly. Desperate, Gray tries to outrun the foul creature but failing to do so as the rabbit is far quicker than him.

'Is this it?' Gray thought with a grimace. 'Is this how my life ends, by the hands of a monster rabbit?'

"Someone help!!!" Gray had no choice, screams in agony, hoping that someone will answer his desperate pleas.

"Okay."

A female voice was then heard.

It seems that whatever God's above had the heart heed to his request as Gray suddenly heard a loud explosion from behind.

Turning around, the boy saw that the rabbit that has been chasing him is now reduced to a pile of ashes, before finally disappearing in its pixelated state.

Just like in a video game.

"Oh my God." Gray's mouth drop with surprise at seeing how the rabbit died. "Maybe I'm really in a video game."

"You got that right mortal."

Now making known before him is a beautiful blonde woman wearing a white dress.

"Who are you?" Gray eyed the new figure in curiosity.

"Before I introduce myself mortal." The woman smiled teasingly. "Perhaps you should do something about that severed hand of yours."

"Oh yeah."

Then Gray suddenly lost consciousness due to severe blood loss.

The woman simply giggled at the boy's funny reaction, now finding him to be someone worth interesting.
