Andy
"Johnny will take you there, he’ll be home in five minutes" mom says. the nail salon was extra busy today so instead of his dad driving him to hangout at with him at dave and busters, his uncle will do it instead "ok mom, well by love you" Andy changes quickly from a white tank top and shorts to a blue t-shirt and grey pants.
A few minutes later John gets home, "ayo (let’s go)" he says "ok" Andy says as he gets into the car, "ayo (what restaurant is it?)" "It's not a restaurant, it's an arcade" Andy tried to show John pictures of the arcade, but his uncle was more focused on the pictures of the food, fortunately he gives a thumbs up as Andy puts the address into the GPS.
The car leaves the driveway and eventually gets on the highway, unfortunately John saw a car going really fast and took it as a dare for a race, "Please don't" Andy asks despairingly, his uncle only gave him a devious grin as the car proceeded to go over 100 miles.
"This is what it must feel like to be inside a race car!" Andy says with a combination of thrill and fear as he hold on to the door hand rest for dear life, suddenly when they were speeding across an intersection, another even faster car that was getting cased by the police crashed into the car Andy and John were in, causing the car to to gat crush like a soda can, and spins a few times.
"SHIT THIS HURTS!" Andy can feel his right arm bent and break, causing multiple fractures and multiple of his ribs breaking, causing severe pain when he tries to breathe. John was no better, he hit his head hard on the side window, causing him to get a concussion, the severe impact of the car caused one of his lungs to collapse. Andy tries to get out of the car but can't, then he notices something, exposed wire and leaking gasoline inching closer and closer to the wire "oh no, OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO" both Andy and John get hazy from the gasoline as it makes contact with the wire, causing the car to explode.
“So this is what it feels like to be dead huh had to admit, honestly what did i expect, there is no judgment, there is not heaven, hell, or second li-” Andy suddenly heard a voice behind him “THERE IS A SECOND LIFE, WELL FOR AT LEAST YOU AND YOUR UNCLE” “HOLY SHIT WHO ARE YOU?!” Andy exclaimed as he finally noticed the comically colorful biblically accurate angle.
”I AM [ILLUSTRATOR] THE MANIFESTATION OF ART, AND I AM HERE TO BE YOU AND JOHN’S EMPLOYER” "employer?" “YES, DIDN’T YOU HEAR ME?” “Yes?” “GOOD, AS I WAS ABOUT TO SAY YOU AND YOU AND YOUR UNCLE WILL BE BROUGHT TO ANOTHER WORLD FOR US TO MONITOR, WHAT WORLD WILL YOU TWO GO I’LL GIVE YOU A HINT IT’S A ROBLOX GAME” Andy took a bit of time to think before guessing “TR:UD, Forsaken, Daybreak 2?” “...NO” “oh thank goodness what world is it then?” “PHIGHTING” “Oh no” “OH YES, OH AND ONE MORE THING, YOU AND YOUR UNCLE GET ONE WISH TO BRING TO THE WORLD SO THINK ABOUT IT.”
There was a quick moment of silence between the two before Andy thought of something “Can I have an indestructible laptop with an archive of all of the internet up to the moment I died with no need to charge, will come back to me no matter what, is unhackable, can run both windows and macOS games, and has every windows era touhou game on it?" “HEH CHILD'S PLAY YOU WILL BE SURPRISED HOW COMMON THAT WISH IS MINUS THE TOUHOU THING” “Ok not gonna think about the implications of that” “OK NOW WHAT GEAR DO YOU WANT?” “uhhh, can i have Zeus’s Lightning Bolt Staff” “YUP NOW THAT YOUR ALL SET, IM GONNA SEND YOUR SOUL TO YOUR NEW BODY AND TALK TO YOUR UNCLE NEXT, DON'T WORRY I’LL JUST PROJECT MY VOICE INTO HIS HEAD, YOU WILL BE GIVEN ENOUGH BUX FOR RENT FOR THREE MONTHS AND FOOD FOR A WEEK, AND FOR OUR SAKE BE ENTERTAINING TO WATCH OK?” “ok".
Andy Bold Staff is the first one to wake up, no longer Bolt Staff, looks out the window to see that they were in crossroads well that's good, then notices the laptop on a floor nearby oh what a pleasant surprise it’s just like his macbook pro in his old life passwords, cringe audio, and all, though, there is one thing that wasn't there, an application with a color wheel icon that says “Need My Help?”; the 14 year old decides to click it. What appears looks like discord, the first message that pops up says "hello Andy, this application allows me to talk to you and provide help, If you need my help with anything like how to pick locks, installing malware on someone's computer, or anything else, I’ll try to help you; just text me what you need help and let my do my thing”. The application closes itself as a confused Bolt staff stares at the screen.John Sniper Rifle wakes up after an hour “uhhh hi uncle guess this is our new life huh” Sniper Rifle is still understandably confused just stares “soooo wanna go get something to eat? We also need to find a job, ok?” Sniper Rifle just nodes as both put on some clothes and leave the apartment.
