It was the year 2169. The apocalypse finally arrived. Global warming, zombies, nuclear war, all at once. Just one tipping point and the world itself would crumble. Then, Nova Corp, a hegemon of the corporate world, seemingly convinced the global super powers into doing the impossible: Taking everyone online. And they did. Everyone, poor or rich, was taken into the VRMMORPG: World Online. A fantasy world where anything was possible. A utopia, unlike everything that the real world was. But what was supposed to become a method of existence, became a battleground for supremacy. Companies, world powers, and the rich battled to become the greatest. The disparity between the poor and the rich grew. There was no justice in this world. It took Darwin's words further than any other. Jake, as poor as one could get, was caught in the rift, torn apart by the unfair system. He was a dog of the Shadow King Guild, and even though he was absolutely loyal, in the end, the guild cut him off. He was without an anchor and left in the cruel world. He knew no Utopia like the others. But one day, when he opened his eyes, nothing was the same anymore. Opening his eyes, he found himself ten years in the past. He was done being the henchman now. He was not going to let himself be used anymore. Now, it was time for him to fight back. So what if the strongest were going to stand in his way? He was going to be unstoppable.

Jake opened his eyes. He got up from the pod that he was on, and looked around.
His room was absolutely empty, with all of his stuff still unpacked.
But the first thing he did even though he was exhausted, was slump next to the computer and log on to the internet.
He needed to find out what happened at the end. An Update? The first update was supposed to happen a whole month after the world started. Not two weeks later! He was just not ready for what this update was supposed to bring.
But the moment he looked at the forums, all he saw was exactly that.
Everyone was talking about the sudden update that suddenly came when they logged out. And the others who were still in the game logged into the forums from there, and they were confused.
Why would they have to wait till they were logged out before the update started? That didn't make any sense.
Was this a glitch in the biggest virtual reality platform in the world?
