"Forsooth. Repent and you shall henceforth be sent free."
"Never. You'll pay for this!" Theo said.
What's going here!? Let's go back a few hours earlier and see what led to this conversation…
Kate and Theo had just come back from a mission when they got an alert on the Calibre Computer (also patent pending) that read something strange. It said 2D creatures invading city section 7. "Well Theo, crime never sleeps." Kate said. Both of them were transported to the scene and truth be told there were weird 2D things invading the city. "Let's do this." Theo boldly exclaimed. They began to fight the creatures but when they touched them their view began to distort. Their bodies felt tingly.
In the shadows, someone uttered "Hope you like my new game...careful you could really die this time…"
Next thing they knew, Kate and Theo were in a strange new world. It looked similar to theirs but was set in the dark ages. Knights walked the roads, disease was easily contagious, and a giant castle loomed over them. "You're under arrest!" A voice said. Several guards approached them. "What did we do?" Asked Kate. "All questions are for the king." Said one of the guards. The guards then put them in shackles and dragged them into the castle. Theo struggled to get free and one of the guards, annoyed of Theo shenanigans, clobbered him in the head with a shield and knocked him out. After what seemed like forever, they were thrust on the floor in front of an elaborate room. "What is your business?" Said one of the figures that was sitting on one of two chairs that were in the center of the room. "They committed the worst crime, Sorcery." One of the guards answered. "The figure upon the chair came into view. "Do you know who I am? I am the king of this kingdom. You have broken one of the laws of the land. Thou hast not performs works of sorcery. Forsooth. Repent and you shall henceforth be sent free." "Never. You'll pay for this!" Theo said. "Then I hold you accountable to treason for disobeying the law and henceforth banish you for all eternity. You will never return to this land and if you do you will be killed without question. Let us hope we will not meet again for this reason. Now go."
The guards pulled them away and took them to the outskirts of the village. They unshackled them and threw them on the ground and left. "Ungh. Uh. W-where are we?" Theo groggily said as he woke up. "We got exiled for apparently doing sorcery." Kate said. "This is a great start to my day."
"Psst. Over here." A voice beckoned. "Everything is not what it appears to be. Take these weapons and destroy them." "Destroy them?" Asked Theo. "You will soon see…" The mysterious figure faded away in the shadows. "Well let's go back to the castle to prove our innocence I guess." Theo said. On their way their they encountered some guards and proceeded to fight them. Once Kate saw and opening she struck one of them and cut him in half revealing sparking cords and a bunch of mechanical parts. "What the heck is going on here?" Kate questioned. As they cut all of them down they realized they were all robots. They made their way to the castle doors and busted their way through. Rambo would've been proud of them. They mowed their way through the rest of the guards and busted down the doors to the throne room. "You dare come back?! Guards, seize them at once!" The king ordered. No one came to the king's aid however. "The tables have turned king. Surrender or die." Theo said. "Alright you have won." Said the king. "Wait, what?" Kate asked. "It was this easy?" "Well, yes...for a game. And this is only the beginning!" The king said. The king began to laugh but was disappearing at the same time.
Just then everything around them started to turn into pixels. Everything that was medieval was gone and all that remained was an empty pixelated void.
Congratulations! You beat level one. Transporting you to level two...
