Chimera Flame

The sound of glass shattering echoed out of the void. Natalie, Grace and Dan collapsed onto their butts as exhaustion overcame their bodies. Even so, when they saw the collapsing world around them, all three lifted same smiles of excitement and accomplishment.

Even though they had to use Potential Combusting Pills, it didn't matter for as long as they acquired their rightful rewards and also, that world wasn't really real. In fact, it was just a virtual world that Grace and Dan exaggerated in their discussions.

All three felt strange when they realized that they had arrived in a world that had nothing but darkness. Though they could still see each other, their eyes couldn't seem to penetrate beyond the void around them.

"Look, there's a flame floating there!"
