{System}
*Thinking*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Third person P.O.V)
Steven looked off and saw the zombies in various places.This was going to be a long night.Steven then rushed towards the zombies and started killing them one by one.Steven ignored the constant Level up notifications, but noticed he got a new skill.
{Skill:Sprint:This skill improves your running and makes you faster the more the skill is used or the more you run}
Steven activated the Sprint skill and started killing the zombies faster than before.He had already killed a total of 100 zombies but kept going.The drops from the zombies was also automatically picked up by the system and placed inside his inventory.Steven went on the slaughter the zombies not stoping until his quest was completed.

Steven was happy that his mother left him something, it meant that she really did care for him and even if she couldn't be with him at least he knows that she loves him.Steven then checked his stats.

Steven was surprised about how much his level jumped as well as his stats but after fighting 1,000 zombies what would you expect.Steven then went into his inventory to see all the loot he had, he had a lot of gems in his inventory as well as teeth and rotten flesh.Steven sold all of those things to the inventory and basically became rich.
{Money:$50,000,000,000}
Steven was shocked, he ended up freezing in place looking at the price he got.He didn't understand how he got that much but then came to the conclusion that it was because of the gems he sold.Steven basically sold expensive gems to the system.Thinking about it he could probably become the richest person to live.He then got ready lo leave but an emergency quest appeared.

Steven looked at the screen with an emotionless face.The system was basically asking for him to kill his family, the gems were like his aunts and he couldn't do it even if he had too.The only reason he looked so calm was because of Gamers mind, but if it turned off he would become horrified at what he had to do.He gripped his swords as the gems landed.They we're weaker because they were zombies who couldn't logically think but we're still strong.A tear left Steven's eye and he suddenly rushed into battle.
He dodged a fist from Garnet, avoided a strike from Pearls spear and jumped back once Amethyst whip came to him.Steven activated his mother's shield or his shield now and rushed in to attack them.The shield blocked another strike from Pearl and took his dagger and struck her in her head where her gem was located.He grabbed his other dagger and throw it into Amethyst's chest upper chest where her gem was located, then he rushed in and pushed the dagger further in, taking her out.Garnet was the last one left and probably the hardest for him to defeat.He knew she was a fusion so even after breaking the fusion he'd have two more strong enemies to defeats.Steven rushed at Garnet and she did the same.
He then sprinted behind her and struck his dagger into her back.He pushed it as deep as it could go but it wasn't enough to make her defuse.Steven then took out his second dagger and put it into her neck making her defuse and now he had to face Sapphire and Ruby.He rushed at Sapphire and struck on her right hand where her gem was taking her out, he then quickly rushed at Ruby and struck him in his right hand taking him out as well.Steven then sat down on the sand as his quest came in front of him

Steven was silent, he didn't know what to say nor what to do.He knew they weren't real and the gems were still safe but he killed them.His own family, and the worst part was he didn't feel anything while killing them because Gamers Mind prevented that.If Steven turned off Gamers mind he'd probably break down for what he did.What would his dad think if he knew what he did or worst his mother.The women who would forgive to the point to make a sword to only harm a gems physical body and not their gem.She would be disappointed in what Steven had to do, the fact he had to kill people that always looked out for him like family.
Even when thinking that he realized it was necessary to kill them, they weren't real anyway right.When he left they would still be there and everything would be fine.Even when saying that his mother and the gems never killed other gems.They had a place to bubble up the gems and keep them from coming back.What Steven did couldn't be justified no matter how hard he tried to say it was right.Steven needed more time to think about what had happened so he tried to exit the dungeon but didn't know how.A message then popped up.
{To leave the ID just think or say ID escape]
*ID escape*thought Steven and the next thing he knew he was back inside his bedroom like nothing happened.Steven could feel that he got an extreme power up.Steven got up and went to the bathroom to take a bath, he needed to clear his head.As he sat in the tub he just relaxed a bit, although he was still tense from what happened a nice hot bath always calms someone down a bit.Steven needed help and he knew their was only one person who could help him.
