Autumn woke up earlier than usual today. The concert was at 6:00pm tonight. She slummed herself out of bed slowly and glanced at the clock next to her bed. 11:26am blinked slowly in red. "Six hours, hunh? Looks like I have some time to do some gaming and time to get a warm-up practice in before I head to the stage." She stood up and stretched her arms and back before walking into the bathroom to get changed out of her nightgown. Walking back into her bedroom, she powered up her stereo and turned up the song 'The Spirit of Radio' as she got her virtual reality gear ready to use. "Play some fantasy or something? That sounds good to me." The gear slipped on over her head and she powered it on.
Three hours later, the device powers down and Autumn returns to the real world. She sighed heavily and sat up, "the real world is so boring. The only good thing in this world is music. At least if a person dies in virtual reality, they respawn...not like the real world..." Rumbling noises come from her stomach. "Time to get some food then head to the stage." She stood up and stepped over the litter of musical instruments spread out all over her floor. In the kitchen, she made herself some pancakes and bacon. The smells of the food was always great. She was not the best cook in the world, but she could make herself a decent meal. She transfered her food from the skillet to a plate and sat down at her table pulling out her phone. Her concert was on the local news website and she is a featured guest to an uprising band. "Ugh...I'm glorified by everyone...sickening. A person can learn something amazing, and it's like you're a...god." She let out another sigh. "People only come because I'm a young girl who can play a badass guitar solo. Let's go do this then!" She scarfed down the last of her food, grabbed a coat and her guitar and left the house for the concert.
She put in her head phones and played her music on full blast. People walked by her as she strummed the guitar for a little practice. Her thoughts ran wild about how awesome it would be if her guitar could shoot fire like pyrotechnics or something. It took about an hour to walk to the concert stage out in the park. The huge crowd surrounded her asking for autographs and such she did not really care about. After pushing through the huge crowd to the stage, she climbed up and greeted her band mates that she was working with tonight. She never worked with the same band members every night, so she was a call up for fill in spots. She could do it all, it made her a perfect first pick for when a band member cannot make it to the performance. They all shook her hand and thanked her for coming to the performance.
Autumn tuned her guitar perfectly. The performance began and the crowd went wild. The were going crazy for the amazing guitar player. That is until the pyrotechnics covered the band in a cloak of fire, and when it disappeared, the guitarist disappeared. The crowd seemed to assume it was apart of the show, then the whole band stopped playing. The crowd went silent and the singer spoke, "Where'd she go?" The crowd began to boo, they were not amused by this turn.
Meanwhile in the Omniverse, Autumn wakes up meeting Omni. After he explains where she is and what was happening she spoke to him. "So...this is like a real live, virtual reality? You must be the GM then." Omni seemed to just ignore her speech. She appeared in front of the Nexus fountain. "...This isn't Earth. Holy shit. What game did I download to my gear? End process!" Nothing happened as she tried to "Log out" of her virtual reality equipment. "I said, END PROCESS DAMMIT." Autumn's heart skipped a beat. "Oh no...It's just like Sword Art Online! I'm trapped...but the GM said that we would be respawned if we die." She noticed she did not have her guitar. "Alright, lets try this out." She held still and summoned her guitar. "Hehe...Sound, is...POWER!" She strummed a power chord and let off a giant sound wave. Her eyes widened with excitement. "Oh my shit...this world rules!" Autumn 'sheathed' her guitar, by sliding it to her back with the strap over her shoulder. "I can't just go running around and do shit without finding some kind of info. If I spawned here, that means others should be able to spawn here as well. Maybe if I'm lucky they'll know shit about this place." She stood around observing her current surroundings.
