You both stand up and walk toward the door to clocking your badge and leave

"Von you still dreaming of finding away out of this cycle von cause to me it's neverending" ray said as he walked to his car a old beat up truck "heh I haven't found away out yet don't honestly know if I will but I feel as if something will save me from this cycle of emptiness." You get in your car and turn the key...

Going gring gring..."come on" gring gring gring you smack the top of your vehicles dash trying to somehow encourage it to start finally you hear the vehicle start and you drive to your 'home' though you long for something greater.

As your driving you look up and see a lot of military aircraft flying ovehead you see remember that you could have joined the military and still could but you don't really feel like it's gonna be any more exciting than working a 9-5 it's just work unending work no matter where you go in life all anyone talks about is money,power, and woman you feel like those things are nice but for some reason if you had all that you know you still wouldn't be happy you turn on the radio "attention all citizens and military evacuate to the nearest shelter or bunker this is not a test" von looked outside his windows and saw houses on fire and people running around frantically von new that he needed to get to safety bit he said to himself why did they all have to go and hide just to continue this empty existence.

Everyone soon lined up at the bunker near him and he decided to keep driving past other looked at him and a military person even raised his rifle and shoot at him but von had already sped away "I want to see what's so scary that we have to stay hidden in bunkers and shelter everything the radio or military tell us to" as you drive you see the bunkers and shelter doors closed. "well this is it time to see what's so scary about the outside world on every saturday" as you drive you stop beside the road and get out as the sky turns dark you can see everything around you going dark to the point you can't even see your own hands suddenly a red light appears in the sky it's like the moon but red and burning "this doesn't seem so bad so far" suddenly as if it could hear your voice the red glow grew stronger and started to move towards you at a extremely fast pace and it started shrinking as it got closer to you finally the red glow was right infront of you the size of a light bulb you were a bit afraid of it but you also new the could change your life "speak human when others go and hide why did you not. Instead coming directly here are you not afraid?"you swallow and say to it"i don't want my life to be like this I'm tired of working the same 9-5 job feeling like I'm wasting my life away i...i....I wish for more something more the red glow condensed into a red ball and slowly drifted to his eyes you wish for more in life yes..more than this a life of excitement a life of happiness a fulfilling life one that you could only dream of or read about but never live? If that is the case I will give you options and I will send you to the one you choose but be warned once you go you can't come back unless you complete a mission for me"....

Von thought hard about it but then he said to himself honestly I'd really like a changeover tell me what are my options....
