"It's here!" excited, Daniel yelled. "The Reality Game is finally here!"
Daniel had saved up his money for months to be able to order the latest reality bending game. It allowed the player to live out any life he or she wished. There were two types of this game; one for boys and the other for girls. Being small for his age, looking more like a twelve year old than sixteen, Daniel did not make the football team so he ordered the game for boys in hopes of living the life of a football player.
Only all of his hopes were dashed when he opened the package; the game was pink in color. It was the girls' version of the game. "But I ordered the boys' version of the game!" angry and confused, Daniel said. "I know I did; I checked it three times!"
"What's wrong, bro?" entering Daniel's room, Sophie asked. "Something wrong with the game you ordered from Reality Inc.?"

Daniel looked at his sister as if she had lost her mind only, after some pleading, he finally gave in and hooked the game equipment. It was fairly basic with its own digital monitor, the game console, and two wireless controllers. Once everything was set up, Daniel turned on the game and stood in front of the monitor where a message read, 'Please hold still while you are scanned.'
"Scanned?" curious, he thought.
