I WAS PIXELATED!

Chapter 5: Safe room no more



After sitting through an unbearable sugar crash that led to a stomach ache, Gimmick Stylus was not feeling too good. If anything that was putting his discomfort lightly. He rolled over on his stomach and pushed himself upward. His arms shook in a struggle to hold his full weight. When he finally got up, he doubled down for a moment to catch his breath. 

As Gim's vision cleared up, and his pains lessened, he exited out of the pantry. 'Reminder: Not to do that again.' He grunted as he walked up the stairs. 

Before he entered his room he heard a strange buzzing sound. White light emerged from underneath his door. He opened it cautiously. His console was blinking a white light, just like his pendant earlier. He looked at his TV screen which had the regular Minecraft menu on. However, on top of the screen was a pop up that had a message in a Minecraft font.

"Extraction process dot dot dot dot many dots one hundred percent." Gim read. "What does that mean?" His pendant blinked again and then a new message appeared below the first one in the same Minecraft font.

"Essence of a what?" Gim wasn't sure he read that right. He grabbed the TV and scooted his chair. The moment his fingers made contact with the screen. The message highlighted itself then changed.

[BEGINNING OTHERWORDLY TRANSFIGURATION]

In a big flash of light, Gim fell unconscious and began materializing from head to toe. He turned into a pile of bright white microscopic cubes which all whirled wildly into the console which had created a large vacuum of air. It began to suck everything into it, disappearing in a crack of light that shone above the console. 

Suddenly, the air died down, and the TV stayed on. The room was dark with a cold isolation.
