So, when I'm not tilted from losing all my progress in a rage game... I'm pretty mellow.
Mellow lives in the futuristic year of 20XX. Modern technology has made the line between reality and the virtual blurry. Multimedia has evolved to be its own world, and the internet allows humans to transcend their physical limits and explore it; movies can be lived in, video games can be experienced in the flesh. Technology is now indistinguishable from magic.Amongst millions of gamers in the world, Mellow is one of the few that embrace games of an older generation. In his eyes, competitive modern games just don't have the appeal or charm that single-player games from the past used to have. Those same new technologies that had enabled MMORPGs and battle royale games to be so immersive also made it difficult for indie developers to keep up. Rage and other high-difficulty games are relics of the past. Mellow seeks out these forgotten games. And it's that same hunger for challenge that ultimately changes his life.Rumors on online boards lead Mellow to download an infamous rage game, Artemis Quest. The game immediately proves to be brutal, and Mellow dies a hundred times in the span of an hour. Still, he doesn't give up. The hours pass by, and Mellow gets progressively better. The boss patterns get recorded in his head, and his reaction time improves. He feels himself sink into his chair as he continues playing on his vintage wired controller. One last roll, then a hit. The final boss falls, dissolving into particles as an orchestral score roars and credits begin to roll. Mellow smiles to himself and walks away from the screen, heading to the kitchen for a well-deserved snack. Unbeknownst to him, his tenacity in beating the game had attracted the attention of an AI hidden within the code of the Artemis Quest. The sudden interruption of the music forces Mellow to glance back at his screen. The image of a head greets him.
"I am R2-M1S." A female voice talks to him through his headset. "I have chosen you."
Mellow had never seen an AI like R2-M1S, so he dismissed her as a prank left in by the developers of the game.
"Malwolves hide within games and media. Hunt them."
The word "malwolves" caught his attention. Those anomalies had been corrupting files on the internet for a few years now.
"You know what they are?"
"They are the product of a rogue AI."
"So... An AI made them?" Mellow was well aware of the restrictions that all AIs were programmed with. "That's impossible."
R2-M1S didn't reply. Instead, she decided to show him how wrong he was. Ribbons of binary code projected out of the screen, forming a rough, polygonal shape. It only took a few seconds for the shape to become that of a wolf, and it quickly started acting on its own.
He initially looked at the artificial wolf with disbelief in his eyes, but he had no option to accept that it existed.
"It is yours to use. A wolf to hunt other wolves." R2-M1S spoke. "But first, it needs a name."
"Sif." Mellow didn’t hesitate when choosing the name.
"So be it. The hunt… it begins."
The screen immediately cuts to blue. R2-M1S and the wolf were gone, and in their place, a badge laid next to the screen. The text "R2-M1S" decorated the face of it.
Mellow picked it up, but he couldn't help but wonder just what he'd gotten himself into.
