Chapter 1 - The started Of the nightmare

 In the heart of a shattered world, where shadows reign supreme and hope flickers like a dying ember, a battle of cosmic significance unfolds—a battle that will alter the fate of all existence.

The earth beneath is a desolate wasteland, scorched and fractured, bearing the scars of endless wars.

The air is thick with the acrid stench of decay and the lingering echoes of despair.

Amidst this bleak expanse, the Emperor of Light, Lexer-Lunox, stands resolute. Chosen by the Light itself, his very presence radiates an aura of unyielding resolve.

His blade, gleaming with divine energy, is poised at the throat of his nemesis the Half-Dead Child of Chaos, a grotesque amalgamation of nightmares and malevolence.

The sun climbs higher, its golden rays stretching across the ravaged land like the fingers of a benevolent god.

The battlefield, once a of chaos and despair, now lies eerily silent, save for the faint whispers of the wind carrying the ashes of the fallen. 

 Lexer-Lunox sheathes his sword, its radiant glow dimming but never fully extinguished. The Light within him pulses faintly, a reminder of the eternal bond he shares with the force that chose him, that sustains him.

He turns to survey the aftermath. The land, though scarred, seems to breathe again, as if the very earth is grateful for its liberation. 

In the distance, he sees them the survivors. They emerge from their hiding places, their faces weary, but their eyes alight with something they had long forgotten" hope".

They gather at the edges of the battlefield, hesitant yet drawn to the figure who stands at its center, the hero who had faced the abyss and emerged victorious.

Lexer-Lunox steps toward them, his armor battered but unbroken, his presence both commanding and comforting.

He raises a hand, and the crowd falls silent, their breaths held in anticipation. When he speaks, his voice carries the weight of centuries, yet it is softened by an unspoken promise.

"Today, the darkness has been pushed back," he begins, his words echoing across the desolate plain.

"But this is not the end. It is a beginning a chance to rebuild, to rise from the ashes and reclaim what was lost. The Light has prevailed, but it is not mine alone. It belongs to all of you. It is the spark within each of us that refuses to be extinguished, no matter how deep the shadows grow."

The people listen, their hearts stirred by his words. A child, no older than six, steps forward, clutching a tattered doll. Her eyes, wide and innocent, meet Lexer-Lunox's.

"Will you protect us?" she asks, her voice trembling but clear.

He kneels before her, his towering frame brought to her level. Placing a hand on her shoulder, he smiles a rare, gentle expression that seems to light up the world around them.

"As long as I draw breath, I will stand between you and the darkness. But remember, little one, the Light is not just in me. It is in you, too. And in all of us. Together, we are stronger than any shadow."

The crowd murmurs, a ripple of determination spreading through them likea wildfire.

Lexer-Lunox rises, his gaze sweeping over the gathered survivors. "We will rebuild," he declares.

"We will heal. And when the Chaos rises again, we will be ready. Not just me, but all of us. For the Light is not a weapon it is a promise. A promise that no matter how dark the night, the dawn will always come."

With that, he turns and begins to walk, his steps deliberate and unwavering. The people follow, their spirits lifted by his words. They are no longer mere survivors they are a people united, a beacon of hope in a world that had nearly forgotten what hope felt like.

GOOD ENDING]

The boy leaned his head against the window of the school bus, his breath fogging up the glass as the vehicle rumbled along the winding road toward Mount Fuji.

The majestic peak loomed in the distance, its snow-capped summit glowing under the morning sun.

But his mind was far from the scenic view.

His phone was clutched tightly in his hand, the screen still lit with the final chapter of The Light's First Being.

'What the hell is this ending?!' he thought, his jaw tightening as he reread the last few lines. 

"Why did it just... end like that?!"

The bus was filled with the excited chatter of his classmates, all buzzing about the upcoming hike and the breathtaking views of Mount Fuji.

But he couldn't bring himself to care.

His thoughts were consumed by the game or rather, the lack of a proper conclusion.

The story had been building up for so long, with Lexer-Lunox's journey from a weak academy student to the Emperor of Light, his battles against the Chaos, and the intricate lore that tied everything together.

And then... it just ended like that, it was rushed, half-hearted feeling"happy ending" that left a dozen plot threads dangling.

"What's up with this shitty lore?!" he muttered under his breath, earning a curious glance from the black girl with purple eyes sitting across the aisle.

He ignored her, too caught up in his frustration.

'Ugh! This is insane!'

He had spent thousands of hours on this game. Thousands of dollars, too, on expansions, skins, and weapons.

He knew every detail of the world, every piece of lore hidden in the item descriptions, every secret the developers had tucked away.

And now, it felt like all of that had been for nothing. The ending didn't just disappoint him it felt like a betrayal.

"This can't be it," he thought, scrolling back through the final chapter again. 

"It feels like a prologue, not an ending. What about the God of the Depths? What about Lexer's connection to the depth? What about the Chaos? They just left it all hanging!"

The bus hit a bump, jolting him slightly, but he barely noticed. His mind was still stuck in the game, trying to make sense of the nonsensical ending.

The world-building had been so meticulous, so deliberate. Every item, every character, every location had a story. Even the smallest details felt like they mattered.

" So why would the developers drop the ball now?"

'Maybe they ran out of ideas,' he thought, though he didn't really believe it 'Or money. Or both. But still... this doesn't feel right.'

The bus driver's voice crackled over the intercom, pulling Victor out of his thoughts.

"In 5 minutes, we will arrive at Mount Fuji," the announcement echoed through the bus, met with a excited murmurs and shuffling as students began gathering their belongings.

Victor sighed audibly, leaning his head back against the seat.

He knew he should let go of the game, at least for now, and focus on the trip. But the frustration still lingered, like a pebble in his shoe that he couldn't shake out no matter how hard he try.

"Hey Victor, you're playing those stupid games again?" Claude's voice cut through the air, sharp and teasing.

Victor turned his head slightly to see his fake friend Claude Maxson leaning toward him, his white hair tousled and his dark eyes glinting with mock concern.

Claude was the kind of guy who always had something to say, whether it was helpful or not.

Technically, they were friends or at least, they played the part. But Victor knew better. Their friendship was more of a social convenience than anything else . Still, Claude wasn't entirely wrong this time.

"Well, I did. Is it somehow affecting you in some way?" Victor replied, his tone casual but laced with just enough edge to make Claude back off.

He wasn't in the mood for another lecture about how he should "grow up" or "focus on real life." as he already done those stuff way before him.

Claude raised his hands in mock surrender, a grin spreading across his face.

"Hey, Victor, man, I know you like this sort of stuff, but shouldn't you stop playing that stuff and start applying to colleges and stuff, bro? Your grades are the best in the country, and I doubt any college will reject you." His tone shifted to something resembling genuine concern, though Victor wasn't entirely convinced.

Victor smiled faintly, his expression calm and composed. "You need not worry, my friend I already have a plan for that," he said, his voice steady.

"Let's just have fun on this school trip and worry about the college part later."

Claude shrugged, clearly not satisfied but unwilling to push further. "Alright, man. Just looking out for you."

At that moment, John Stone, the boy sitting by the window, leaned forward. His black hair fell into his eyes as he pointed excitedly out the window.

"Oh look, Victor, we can see Mount Fuji now!"

Victor followed John's gaze, his eyes landing on the towering peak of Mount Fuji.

The mountain was even more imposing up close, its snow-capped summit gleaming under the sunlight. The sight was breathtaking, but Victor's mind was still elsewhere.

He offered a small nod, acknowledging John's enthusiasm, but his thoughts were already drifting.

"I guess we're almost there," Victor murmured, more to himself than to anyone else.

He leaned back in his seat, closing his eyes. The hike up Mount Fuji would require energy, and he knew he needed to rest, even if it was just for a few minutes.

As last night he didn't had much sleep, since he was busy doing the paper work.

As the bus rumbled closer to their destination, Victor let out another quiet sigh.

The game's ending still remain at him, but for now, he pushed it to the back of his mind.

There would be time to dwell on it later. For now, he had a mountain to climb and, if nothing else, the fresh air might help clear his head for a little bit.

BOOM!!
