Metal Screens Chapter 1 : Lila10 and Zayna001

Rusty metal laying like scraps of paper on the old sidewalks. No one talking to each other, only to the screens. Hello...I am Metalina. Weird name, I know. I live in 2045. From the future of course. These screens aren't only screens though. They are everything. Zagon Aphrodite, or known as ZA the Great, made almost everything a screen. Why? Well he thought we can escape the rusty earth and live IN the screen.

I am 17 and my parents died a year ago. They got trapped in the screen and never came out which has only happened to them. I hated screens ever since but use it just like everyone else.

I snapped on the sunglasses and stepped on the pad. I said my password, "Screen ZA Girl" which isn't that original and the same tugging sensation brought me in.

I spawned in the spawning area just like all the others. My screen character had long, wavy purple, pink, and blue hair with a shiny outfit and sky blue skin.

"Hey Zayna!" Lila10 called from her spawning place. Lila10 was my best friend whom I never met. My name is Zayna001.

She was the biggest Harry Potter fan and her screen character was Fleur Delacour,

"Hey Lila!" I said running toward her, "I think I figured out the maze!" The maze was this challenge in The Impossible Tower and the winner gets millions of dollars. It was created in 2040 and no one has beat it yet. The maze was level 2 of the 20 level tower.

"Well let's go then!" Lila said very happily. She pinched the air with her two fingers and a screen came up. She pushed Teleport and then clicked through all the locations then punched the one that said The Impossible Tower. I did the same and met her there.

The spawn area was packed with people. Many falling from the air in much rage.

"I made some gold. I hope we make it" I said. Lila nodded. Her waist-length silvery blonde hair swishing as we walked to the starting area. It had many signs saying stuff like "VERY

HARD" "Rage for sure" "BE CAREFUL" and "Big chance you might DIE"

The same computer voice spoke as they were going to let us in. "Oh. Zayna001 and Lila10. You are back. Well play at your own risk." The bars split apart and we walked through. The

computer voice faded as we walked on and more people came in.

Level 1 is pretty easy. It is this riddle one but we played so many times that I know every riddle and the answer. Next came level 2. We went the same way we always do then came to a halt.

"Ok. I think we go left one and right twice then should go straight. Then....left once then right and then left twice. Come on." I said trying to memorize it.

We ran and ran turning left and right. At last, panting, we got to our last left. We turned left and the beginning of level 3 was visible.

"WE DID IT!" Lila said and high-fived me. With my gloves on from behind the screen can allow people to be able to interact with others.

A message popped up in front of both of us saying DRINK WATER. We said goodbye and I removed the earrings and so did she then the tugging sensation brought me back to my room.
