~Ace~
Gazing out at the sparkling lake, Joseph was in a fantastic mood. Rubbing the smooth caramel wooden bench while taking deep breaths it almost seemed as if he were fading away becoming one with the park. Eyann! Peering down at his phone two text messages rolled in simultaneously.
"Awww, I can't go anymore." mumbled a jogger. Bending over and stretching while he caught his breath a eagle caught his eye. Following the bird with his head it hovered right above a young man sitting on a bench up the hill. Leaning his head to the side. He couldn't believe it. "Ey! Hey Migo." Running up the hill the man stood before Joseph. "I remember you. You're the mijo that bumped into me downtown. Do you remember it was in front of a construction site."
Studying the man face for a second Joseph did remember the man. He also remember turning around and waving his apologies while he continued to run off. "Yea I member you." Twisting his face and shaking it he looked the man in the eyes. "Sorry once again."
"It's okay Mano. I just wanted to let you know that you dropped something. My son says it maybe a computer chip or something"
"So that's where it went." Joseph muttered to himself. "Son? How old is your son?"
"Just turn nineteen."
Eyes popping open a grin stretched across Joseph face. "Your son can keep it. It's a game that I created. You play it on the DSC."
"Yes the Dream State Console."
"Oh, yes that thing. My mijo goes to sleep to it everynight."
"If you don't mind I would like to come over and install it. Also meet your son so I can explain to him how it works."
"That sound's bueno to me. What's your number, I will call you."
~Ace~
"Thank you man. I'm bout to try it out right now."
Construing his face a bit Joseph glanced over at the window. Sunlight was still peeping in but barely. "You calling it a day already it's still early."
"Yea, you right. But I've been up gaming for the last three days and tomorrow I have a flight. I'm trying to become a stuntman or extra in this movie."
Eyes widening Joseph smiled, "Good luck brother, I don't want to hold you back. I will catch you next time." Opening the door and walking out of it he waved goodbye to his hopefully new friend and promoter.
Closing the door behind him, Ace finally had the opportunity to rest. Trudging to the bedroom he dropped; bouncing on the bed before he reached over, grabbing his DSC visors. Yawning, he closed his eyes imagining what character would the game pick for him.
~Daystria~
Opening his eyes Ace slowly flicked his head from left to right taking in the hut he laid in. It seemed that everything was furnished with bone, scales or fur.
Welcome to Dimentia! Peeping at the black words they soon faded and a new screen appeared before him.

Checking out his stats he decided to go give his new body a whirl even thought it looked the same. Scrambling to his feet and exiting his tent a roar echoed through the forest.
Objective: Hunt Chowmim- Locate Hunters
Peeling away from the words Ace devoured the village with his eyes until finally he saw a group of four boys running towards the forest. Chasing behind them they each brandished weapons made from bone and other beast parts. Tossing him a weapon soon as he caught up the four boys sprinted of into the forest.
Dashing through the forest they four young men ran to they reached a clearing. Remaining behind the trees one of the boys pointing out towards four great beasts that stood in the midst of the clearing. One was standing in front of a cliff that didn't seem to much bigger than the eighteen wheeler size animal. Squinting his eyes pass the Leopard like creature with ram horns and copper feet with claws Ace could see something moving. It was a tiny cub with the word Chowmim above it. Switching his attention to the vicious wolf/hog like creatures that stood before the Chowmim charging it and trying to get the mother to make room for them to snatch the cubs.
At this point he made up his mind what he was going to do.
New Objective: Protect Cubs and get rid of Dobids.
Bonus: Kill Dobid Bonus: Kill Dobids before mother Chowmim dies
"Did it read my mind?" Ace asked himself before shaking his head. He had a mission to complete and his comrades were already creeping out hidden in the tall grass. Tilting his head to the side he noticed that they have morphed into a bear like humanoid with a dog like tail.

Staring at his black fur and claws for only a few seconds Ace tore his attention back towards the upcoming battle. Watching the Chowmim charge at the Dobids and running them back or whirling at them with its copper bladed tail he took in the scenery. "That's it." Bolting off towards the right he ran along the outer perimeter not stopping until he reached his destination. Taking in deep breaths he already envisioned his next move. Galloping across the field he bounded off of the dens roof onto a tree. Climbing up the tree until he found a branch that extended above one of the Dobids. Walking down the branch as if it were a high wire and he was a squirrel he stopped. Angling himself appropriately he plunged down onto the back of one of the beasts thrusting his sword into the back of its neck. Eeeeyaaank! The creature howled before slamming to the ground with a dooosch.
Sliding off the Dobid, Ace scanned the area for his companions until four arrows materialized showing him their location. They were stealthily creeping up on the beast on the far left. Taking a deep breath he bolted that way making sure not to distress the Chowmim. Reaching ten yards of his target his comrades leaped onto the back of the Dobid leg biting chunks out the back of its knees.
Eeeyaaank the creature screamed falling to its side. Putting an extra boost into his step Ace catapulted onto the neck of the beast grabbing hold to its fur cutting it down till he got to the flesh. Opening his mouth eighty-percent he gnashed at its neck with a fierce bite ripping out arteries.
Howling and wriggling for a second the Dobid went limp as blood streamed down its neck. Eeeyannk! The final beast turned tail and ran knowing its defeat was definite.
Yelling in victory Ace's allies grouped together picking up one of the Dobids and leaving the other for the Chowmim and its cubs who were already partaking in their meal.

Trailing back to the village a giant tent could be seen a little over a hundred yards away. It was covered in magnificent scales and furs which gave it a luxurious vibe to it though it couldn't take the barbaric musk it head to it, considering giant skulls rested on the post that held the tents steady. Making it to the edge of the village they were greeted by five men with skulls on their heads and accessories made of beasts parts along their body. "Tonight you become men." They said placing necklaces riddled with animal teeth on the everyone neck. "Tonight will be the devouring."
Mother Chowmim Deceased
"Alright now I can go around the world hunting and devouring whatever I please in the name of our Dayurisdae blood." One of the boys yelled dashing off.
"I'm only worried about finding me a mate. Maybe multiple." The second boy blushed heading another way.
Waiting for everyone to leave Ace turned around going back into the forest.
