BEFORE RUBY'S ARRIVAL
Strange... I've stopped... I can feel my feet on the ground, but there is no ground in this pitch black place. It's kinda giving me the creeps... I look down at myself and rather than my school clothes, I'm in my combat clothing, skirt, cape, the works. But one thing's different - I don't have Crescent Rose at my waist. What is happening here?
Wait... there's a glowing, white figure approaching me from the darkness. It... seems to be a man, but at the same time not human at all. Words fill my head, they sound like some kind of novel or story being read to me.
“My name is Omni. This is not the world you know. This is the Omniverse. You interest me, so I have made you part of it. The Omniverse is a place that reflects the wishes of those who are part of it. But! There are rules. I will explain them only once, so listen carefully.”
Omni? Omniverse? I think I’m going crazy… Alright, I’m listening, I think to myself, but my thoughts sound like words that are flying directly out of my mouth.
Omni hands you a glimmering orb in which all the colors of the rainbow coalesce. “This is Omnilium. It’s what ties the Omniverse together. Without it, you are nothing. With it, anything you desire can be yours. But you will need more than this. If you desire it enough, you will find it. You will find that using it comes naturally. Just think of what you desire most.
Omn… Omnillium? Anything I desire? It sounds dreamlike but at the same time… fake… I tell myself, knowing somewhere deep inside that it isn’t fake, that this is going to soon become my reality. I keep my ears peeled for what he has to say next.
“You will not be alone in the Omniverse. There are others. Of course, they, too desire Omnilium. Do not fear death. For as long as you interest me, you will be reborn.
This is sounding stranger and stranger… others who desire a material that can be used to make anything? Sounds like something from a movie. Rebirth? That sounds even more like something from a movie… I keep distracting myself from my new fate by making selfless references to modern culture – or at least modern where I’m from.
“That’s all you need to know right now. You’ll figure out the rest soon enough. I’ll be watching … and waiting.”
The man finally finishes, and his white silhouette – maybe silhouette is the wrong word, but how else would you describe the white shape of a man in pitch blackness? – dissolves back into the empty space he emerged from. I wait in painful anticipation, nervously anticipating Omni’s next move. In an instant, I feel my body distort, and I scream out loud, not in pain as there is none, but in terror and worry that I’ll never see my friends and sister again…
ARRIVAL
CHAPTER 1, PAGE 1
Dear Diary,
Today has got to be the weirdest day of my life – like, ever! I mean, first I was doing something – everything before I came here is rather blurry – then I was confronted by a strange, white man-silhouette-thing that told me he was basically the God of this place and that there’s this strange, rainbow – yes, rainbow! – material conveniently named ‘Omnillium’ that I can use to create anything.
Right after that, I felt my body contort and almost tear before my feet landed firmly back in what seemed to be my room – except it was bare except one bed and a door. Of course, at the time sleep seemed soooooo much more appealing than a random door but my childishness – Weiss, if you are reading this, I give you permission to beat me up about this later – took over my legs and waltzed them over to the ‘interesting’ door, and now here I am, in some, strange, white place, a perfectly normal-looking door to my back. It took me a while to recollect my memories of what happened before, but then I remembered the entire ‘Omni’ encounter.
Using the knowledge I received from Omni about this ‘currency’ that seems to abound in myself and everything around me, I imagined Crescent Rose – for those of you who don’t know, that’s my high-caliber sniper-scythe that I fashioned myself – and the glassy colours began to work. Of course, Omni had to make things difficult for me, didn’t he? Not only did it take around three minutes and change, but it just didn’t feel the same – like someone else had created it, making it somewhat weaker, as if Omni was the one pulling the strings on my beloved weapon.
Realising waaaaay too much was going on in my head, I had to create myself this diary – yeah, you guessed it, black and red! – to jot down my thoughts and stuff so I don’t explode. So far, it’s really helped, and I think it may be crucial to my survival, and furthermore my exit, in this place. In this strange, white area, there are about eight gates surrounding the door in the centre. They each look highly different. One seems to be crafted of wood and vines, another looked like something that you would find inside a volcano. For now, I just want to get my bearings.
Omni stated that there were other beings here. Could it be possible that Weiss, Blake and Yang are all here?
Or am I all alone?
