Rave Riders

Here we go LET THE GAMES BEGIN!! FINAL

As I open my eyes i'm back in that place I saw in my dream only now there are a bunch of people all around me, and in the middle of the crowd I see a Hugh pillar with what looks to be four people standing on top of it.

"what in the hell!" I shout falling back on my but. My mouth completely open from the shock of suddenly winding up back in this place with so many people.

"what in the world is going on!?" I suddenly realize after I fell that I actually felt the ground and a slight pain in my rear. Witch could only mean one thing.

"OH MY GOD! THIS IS REAL!" I shout not realizing I've grabbed the attention of everyone around me.

"Yes. Yes it is my young friend." said The man standing behind me.

As I turn around I get a good look at the guy and I cant believe my eyes! It's Its one of the Riders that went missing and not only that but one of the most well know riders on the planet! Marcos Damon!/ AKA the Flame rider! The guy won several tournaments in a row and is ranked number 2 on the leader boards. Marcos has pure red hair with orange highlights which makes it look like its actually on fire, He also wears a short black vest as well as some solid black jeans.

"Need a hand Kid?" Marcos asks holding out his hand.

"But....I....You were.....How come..... WHAT IS GOING ON!?" I say trying my best to connect the dots rubbing my hands through my hair.

"There a problem kid you look a little....." Marcos said as he spun his hand around in a circle struggling to find the right word.

"I THOUGHT YOU AND THE OTHER RIDERS WERE KIDNAPPED! WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!?" I shout this time grabbing everyone's attention.

After a few minutes with no response I begin to here some chuckling, then some laughing, and then a full on roar of full on laughter!

"Are you kidding me you thought we were kidnapped!" Marcos said in between his fits of laughter.

Ok I'l be the first to admit I had the biggest blush on my face. I have no idea whats going on but being the center of all the laughter made me more angry then embarrassed.

"WHAT'S SO FUNNY DAMMIT!" I shout trying to stand my ground.

"Nothing Kid Nothing at all!" Marcos said putting his hand on my head.

"Thanks for the concern but we chose to come here kid." Marcos said with a grin on his face

"You chose to be here?" I ask with the face like Toby gets when hes about to take a Test. One of complete confusion

Just then I hear a rush of air behind me. As I turn around I see the same thing i saw in my dream the man in the mask.

"Yes young man everyone here today has chosen to be here!" The mask man said with a bow.

"This also includes you my young friend." The mask man said.

"But I only came here to find the missing Riders." I say as I get back to my feet.

"Maybe so, but rules are rules and it looks like the show is about to begin!" The masked man said as he vanished and reappeared back on top of the pillar with the other three figures.

"Greetings ladies and Gentlemen!" The masked man said to the crowd now completely focused on him.

"You all have been very patient and now that our finally player has just arrived we can now officially BEGIN!" The masked man said throwing his hands in the air followed by the roaring applause of everyone here.

"Now to explain the rules of this little game your all about to play." The masked man said while pointing with his cane to the sky showing a massive screen that appeared out of thin air.

"There are 100 players in this game. Each of you must compete to become the best of the best and whoever comes out on top shall receive the ultimate prize!" The masked man said as image appeared on screen showing all of the players and what planet there from.

"THAT'S RIGHT FOLKS WHOEVER WINS IS GRANTED ONE FREE WISH!" The masked man said with great enthusiasm that made everyone roar with excitement.

"Now the rules are fairly simple." The masked man said now pointing to the screen again which showed three cartoon depictions of what looks to be games.

"There are three games you can chose from: Battle! Which is only a strait fight with your Rave gear, Race! which is as you could imaging is a race to the finish line, and Survive! which is a timed survival match to see who can last the longest against the harsh landscapes! Also each of these games can be combined in whatever fashion you chose!" The masked man said as he pointed to each drawing of the games.

"Now i'm not asking you to start right away! That would be to boring so i'm switching it up a bit by sending all of you to different planets where you will be able to train for when you challenge other players using your personal devices like cell phones, wrist coms, or any other device you can use to contact others." The masked man said

I pull out my phone and Find a new feature from what looks to be a book named "RAVE". when I select it I see all the players and all of there personal information, as well as what planet there currently on.

"There are a few small things you still need to know." The masked man said grabbing everyone's attention back to him.

"This is still a game so when you challenge a player you must be in front of the player and he or she has to agree to the challenge before you can begin. I don't care how you get someone to accept it but they have to agree before you can battle." The mask man said.

"Remember boys and girls if you lose even one of these battle you will be kicked out of the game and be sent directly back to your home world." The masked man said laughing like a clown

"However if a player is killed in this game.... The won who killed them has permission..." The mask man says deadly serious and keeping the last bit silent.

"To take The Rave Gear of the fallen player!" The masked man said falling over and laughing like a mad man.

I couldn't believe what I just heard. Rave gear used as a weapon to kill people. I don't know what it was that possessed me to say this but I couldn't hold back.

I....WAS....PISSED!!

"RAVE GEAR ISN'T SUPPOSED TO BE USED AS A WEAPON YOU BASTARD!" I scream at him with the will to kill him in my eyes! After I said this I notice I get multiple grins, a few disgusted faces, and one confused look of a women with light blue hair.

"I understand your anger young man but it's for a good cause I assure you." said a very muscular Indian looking man standing next to me with a focused look in his eyes. He wore a traditional clothing like you see in texted books with face paint to match.

"Yeah kid just keep listening." said Marcos as he pointed back to the Masked man.

"Yes there is one more reason why we have decided to compete this year and its quite the surprise! EVEN FOR ME!" The masked man said with a chuckle

"This year in addition to the prize of one free wish. The winner will be granted a title never before given to a mortal!" The masked man said removing his hat again and this time throwing it into the air which then exploded into doves.

"THIS YEAR WHOEVER WINS SHALL BE TITLED!" The masked man said waiting for dramatic effect.

"GOD OF THE SKY!!!" The masked man shouted which made everyone lose there minds! people started jumping, shouting, proclaiming there victory.

Me on the other hand I was completely still. I didn't know what to say at this point I was completely brain dead. I mean what was I supposed to say! Whoever wins becomes a god and there granted one free wish!

"NOW THAT YOU ALL KNOW THE RULES ITS TIME TO SHUFFLE THE DECK AND FIND OUT WHERE YOU ALL ARE GOING!" The masked man said pointing to the screen which showed each player which planet they were going to.

For me i was going to planet called.....Equis?

"Hum is it to late to turn back?" I ask in hope that I'l get sent back home.

"NOPE!" Is all I hear before I begin to fall into a hole. looking up I see the masked man waving at me.

"WHAT THE HELL!!!!" Is all i'm able to say before the portal closes and a message appears on my phone.
