Chapter 1 (Male Version): The first days out of prison

You've just been released from jail. The police were escorting you to a nearby town called Bjørnevika. It's a coastal city but the road you're on is surrounded by thick forest. There's a police station in the town and that's where you're heading.

The police then stopped in the centrum of Bjørnevika, and left you there alone. You then walked around adventuring the area. After a while, you headed back to the police station.

You went to the police station to find help on where to stay. The officers at the front desk were friendly towards you. They explained that there is an abandoned house you can stay in for free. It was owned by a man named Jon, but he died recently.

You went to the house that the man named Jon once lived in. It was a large wooden house with a red roof. It had a fence around it, and a large field behind it. There was a broken-down barn as well. You went inside the house through a back door that still had keys in the lock.

You cleaned the house and made yourself home. You then decided to sleep for the night. You slept in a large bed with red sheets. You then fell asleep, and stayed asleep for the entire day.

You had a nightmare where he met the Nightmare Commanders. Those Nightmare Commanders were a moon, a volcano monster, a pink cube, a detective, an evil wizard, a white Porsche, a bulky robot, a man with a bore for a hand and a flying bird which uses his beak as a sword.

They each said something different.

The moon merely said "Once every month, we meet."

The Volcano Monster said "I'll huff, and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in..."

The Pink Cube said " .-- . .----. .-. . / .-- .- - -.-. .... .. -. --. / . ...- . .-. -.-- - .... .. -. --. / -.-- --- ..- / -.. --- .-.-.-"

The Detective said "Tell us where the dreaming girl is, and we'll give you a reward."

The Evil Wizard said "You have not the power to oppose me."

The White Porsche said

"...Until the next red light."

The Robot said "Dance, monkey dance."

And finally, the Bird said "One day, I will find you, and we will end this."

The nightmare commanders scared you so much that you froze for a second. It didn't take long before you started to run from them. You tried so hard to escape them, that you didn't know where you were anymore. Where were you?

You looked around the environment. The landscape was very empty while the sky was totally black. The nightmare commander, The Moon, were the only thing which illuminated the place.

In front of you was a building. It looked like a house from the outside, but it was in bad condition. The paint in the building were in a faded grey color. The windows were either broken or boarded up.

You tried to enter the house, but before he managed to reach the house, the white Porsche crashed right through the house, destroying it in the process.

"We meet again, Laurick Anderson. Have you considered my offer? I can give you powers beyond your imagination!" The White Porsche says. "No, I haven't. Leave me alone." You groaned.

"Alright, but this is the last time I'm asking nicely... For now." With those words, the White Porsche drove off into the horizon.

However, just as the white Porsche was out of sight, the wizard began attacking you.

The wizard shot green lightning at you.

You managed to roll out of the way for the lightning. However, this made you more scared for your life.

You stood up, and ran away from the wizard. You didn't even know where you were going, all you knew is that you had to get away from the wizard.

However, you the encountered another one of those nightmare commanders. The nightmare commander had long green hair. You soon found out that he can manipulate the environment. For example, he created a wall of fire to block your path.

You ducked under the wall of fire, only to encounter the white Porsche again.

You got hit by the White Porsche and woke up with the damage from being driven over by a Porsche.

The car that ran you over was actually a dream, however it still actually managed to hurt you. You are now in the hospital with serious injuries. You broke most of the bones in your body, including multiple ribs. You have a broken pelvis, a broken right arm, a broken left leg, and a broken neck. You have been in a comatose state for months now.

The police never found the driver who ran you over.

They never found the car, either. It's like it disappeared into thin air.

As for your house you just stayed in, it has remained abandoned for months before you arrived there. People never heard anything coming from the house, and the police investigations always turned up nothing. The injuries were moderate and painful. As a result, you were in the hospital for a week.

After of having recovered from your injuries, you decided to find help on how to deal with your nightmares.

You went to residing in a hotel, and that's where you've been ever since. One day, you still got a nightmare, but this one was different. This one showed you getting killed by an assassin.

As far as you know, you don't have any enemies and you're not involved in anything illegal. Since you're still recovering from your injury, it'll take a while before your doctors allows you to go back to work.

After of having experienced the nightmare, it was quickly followed by temptations from the nightmare commanders to use their powers. The temptation gets stronger each day. You feel like you're losing your mind. You don't know what to do.

You then tried to hire a hero as a bodyguard in case an assassin really was after you.

The hero was enthusiastic in the beginning, but after a few hours, they started to complain about not getting enough rest. You were worried that they would eventually quit, but he didn't.

While you stayed in the hotel together with the hero, you got another nightmare where two assassins were after you, one of them who seems like he could counteract your abilities. You were worried after that nightmare. You knew you couldn't handle two of them at the same time.

You then gave in to the temptations of letting you borrow powers from the nightmare commanders. You didn't want to, but you would be a fool to think that you could handle two assassins at the same time.

Even if you had a bodyguard with you.

You now have three powers which you can use at your command.

Your bodyguard doesn't know that you are now able to defend yourself. You wanted it to be a surprise attack, so to speak.

You warned the hero about the presence of the two assassins.

You told your bodyguard about the dream, and how you knew it was true. Your bodyguard didn't quite know what to say at first, but after thinking about it for a while, he decided to be proactive.
