Yang Xiao Long
2:00 AM, NExus time
It was a dark room with no exit, where all entry was gated by a lock. The only source of light was a single television screen, that and an ominous red glow. The air of menace and terror filled the air, unlike anything the world had ever seen.
Yang flicked through a list of songs with his remote until an intense shine flicked in his eyes. Of course, he dragged Aruna into this. The frog mascot of the Keropoyo bounced up and down, the neon colored words Kero-Kero Karaoke jumped from under the corner of the screen, flickering with glowing sparkly stars and happy rainbows. Truly, an image to be feared, for the oppressive aura only intensified from the depths of the television.
He pressed okay. On that moment, a melancholic melody played, and the first notes of the piano spoke of great tragedy. No, it was a cry of pain, from the depths of one's soul. The two were transported into a new world, that of a dark city whose dark grimness was only reflected by sterile joyless lights of the nightlife. A desolate, dead city where those who lost it all walked. Or at least, that's how the music video looked.
He gripped the microphone, took a deep breath, and-
"HOooooW CaAAn YoooUUUU SeeEEEE inTOO My EyEs... LiKe OpEn DooOOOORsss!" He passed it over to Aruna like a track race's stick.
