I couldn't understand what I was seeing. A game? What game? I didn't...who am I?
Please select name:
I looked at the text box before me and squinted my head, I felt it buzz around, it's like something was wrong, but I didn't know what.
I looked at the other boxes before, 'my memories are...gone?' I blinked, that was...is that even possible?
I tried to remember my name, my age, anything. But I always came up blank. I...I don't know who I am.
The boxes, they were the only thing I knew now. A name? How can I give a name when I don't know what it is?
I looked around, I was surrounded by darkness, nothing but darkness. Even the ground I walked on was black, black marble.
"My name is….Darkness," I replied slowly, hoping by following through with the boxes questions I could eventually find some help.
Name: Yami (Darkness in world's native language)
Please select gaming world:
Naruto
Everything else was blacked out, there wasn't any other options. I blinked, I recalled that name, it's an anime about ninjas, one I liked very much. With no other choice I selected it and suddenly a new box came up, with a whole bunch of new info;
Default settings are being implemented for game run.

Select difficulty mode:

I selected story mode and the moment I did the world moved away. I felt my eyes being closed and my head hitting something soft.
I blinked immediately and got up, I felt gravity working on my body as I picked myself up from a bed. I looked down, it was old and dusty. The room I was in was poor, dirty walls, no other furniture other than the bed, in one corner a small wall shelf with clothes stacked on it along with other household items.
I blinked as memories came into my mind, this was my room, I lived in it, I remember living in it. But...at the same time, I have never stepped foot in this room in my life...I think.
Just then the door handle turned and an old looking woman walked in. She had a brown kimono on and gave me a soft smile, "hello Yami, have you slept well?"
I blinked, I looked over her head, to my shock words floated above her;
Ksume Horono, Matron of Konoha Orphanage
Lv- 14
REP- 19
I gawked at the image before me. Ksume quickly began to look worried, "Yami? Are you alright? You're not sick again are you?"
I blinked, "I-i, no, I'm fine, it's just..." I didn't know what to say. This wasn't normal yes? The words floating above her head? I knew that for a fact, even if I didn't remember who I really am, this I know.
"Well, you better get up and ready," she smiled, "come, you best get ready quickly, breakfast will be served soon," without another word she walked out leaving me alone.
I knew what she wanted me to do, I had to go and take a bath. I began moving to do just that, grabbed a towel off the top wall shelf, which was very high up thanks to my short stature.
I walked outside and immediately realised was surrounded by children, and what's more, I myself was a child.
This didn't make any fucking sense!
Oh my God how am I so calm about all this?! Someone please tell me what the fuck is going on!
Slowly I began to find myself calming down, honestly it was almost instantaneous. I looked around, 'okay, facts first. I'm in some sort of game like world, maybe virtual reality? Yes, that's the only thing that makes any sense. So I'm in here and this world is based on the anime Naruto, what else? Oh right, apparently I can interact with this world, meaning this game needs to be played.'
I looked around, there were kids running in the hallway with towels thrown over their shoulders. One of them, a kid named Nanou according to the name over his head, smiled at me, "come on Yami! We need to get ready! Today's the day we begin ninja training!"

I blinked, 'okay, it's a game, stands to reason I get quests like this from time to time.' So I pressed the 'yes' option causing the screen to vanish immediately. I blinked, okay, that was new.
"Come on!" Nanou cried out running towards what I remember to be the showers.
I walked out and looked around finding a wall cock in the side. The time read 7:30, I had time. I quickly followed the boy and found myself in a crowded showering area. I blushed when I realised I would have to be naked in front of everyone else when showering.
But seeing no choice I quickly stripped out of my clothes, throwing them into a laundry hamper in one corner of the room, and walked for a quick shower.
I passed my a mirror and stopped looking at myself. Yami was right, I looked super goth right then. My hair and eyes were black, like an Uchiha's. My hair was short and spiky coming down to my shoulders similar to Madara's hair, but not as long or thick. While I didn't look anorexic, I was skinny, something I really didn't like, ribs aren't meant to be seen.
Was this my real face? Or was this just the face of the body I'm using? I honestly couldn't tell, but the fact is I recognize this, I know this face to be mine so honestly I had no reason not thinking it was my face.
