Empyrean App

*ping* *ping*

A noise chimes from his scroll. It rings once, then twice, signaling that he had received a notification. Confused, he glanced at the scroll which was lying face down on his team's shared dresser.

Jaune had put there last night before he went to sleep. It was usually where he kept his scroll as he tended to forget whenever he placed it somewhere else.

There was also a small alarm clock that was placed onto the dresser. Pyrrha's personal item that she had brought with her from Mistral. One of her keepsake's, Jaune remembered.

Currently, the clock showed that the time was almost nine in the morning. It was ten minutes off nine, to be precise.

But the clock wasn't exactly what Jaune was paying attention to. It was of course, his scroll. For a moment, Jaune Idly wondered if someone messaged him but that made little sense due to him keeping his scroll on vibrate.

Why would it ping?

Did someone mess with it's settings without him knowing or did he himself accidentally do so without meaning to?

A slip of a finger, perhaps.

These thoughts strayed for nary a second before he quashed them and put them to the back of his mind.

Striding forwards, he grabbed his scroll and unlocked it within a second. He glanced over it for a moment before raising an eyebrow in slight curiosity.

A notification had appeared on it.

Well, he supposed that solved the mystery of why his phone had made noisy pings. His settings were still there. It kept his phone on the state of vibrate.

So no, he supposed he did not either tamper with his phone setting accidentally, nor was someone else doing so. Shame, he was in the mood for a tiny prank right now.

Though... quite odd, Jaune wondered. He could have sworn that he disabled sound for his notifications just two days ago...

Well... another mystery, another art. Or so the saying goes...

Wait... was that even a saying?

Anyways,

Settings and vibration aside, Jaune was much more focused on what the odd notification was about, currently.

He tapped his finger on the notification and out popped a rather neat text box that was nicely crafted as well as seemingly... how should he put this... graceful? No, graceful was too nice. Arrogant? No, no, that was seemingly rude.

No... see, the text box that popped out somehow struck a chord within Jaune's soul... and there was only one way he could describe the block of text that had appeared on screen.

Pompous.

Yes, that was the word.

It looked pompous.

...

Well now. This is an odd notification. Perhaps the scroll company, decided to update the scroll's software. An automatic update?

No...

That's... unlikely. The scroll company isn't called Multiverse Industries. What in the world is this? Empyrean App?

Perhaps it was an automatic update of one of his games which he had downloaded onto his scroll? That seemed like a likely option...

No...

That's not right either. He only had three games installed onto his scroll and all of them were made by the same game company.

This... was something else.

Monumental and Legendary? Condensed and actualized?

Cosmic power?

What could this mean?

Oh!

Jaune had finally realized where this app came from. It made sense! The clues were placed in front of his eyes from the very beginning.

It was so obvious that Jaune actually huffed out slightly from not figuring it out immediately. Hah. That was a good one.

For a moment he actually believed that this app was an update of some sort. Heck, he had almost actually believed that it was some cosmic event occurring.

No.

That wasn't the case.

The main problem/case of the issue of the app was that it was....

A virus.

Yes. Jaune's scroll had been hacked.
