Cold...
It's Cold...
Nothing but Cold...
My name is Yu Xian or at least... that I was once called. Even since I have been here in this empty void, I have been reliving these foreign memories of my own, replaying them over... and over... again. The joy, of eating steam buns, the sadness of competitive games. I lived them all.
It all started... when I was rummaging my old stuff that I used to have since my childhood, then I found it. The Sonic 1 game cartridge along with the game console. Showered with nostalgia I plugged the console and put the cartridge to play, as I was playing I didn't notice it was suddenly raining outside and by swear coincidence a lightning struck in my house and the electricity flowed through the game then through me, naturally my body couldn't take that much energy my heart burst and I died. I still hear the game over screen playing as I lose my consciousness.
And now reawakened again in this hellish void, I screamed, I panic, I cried, begging for forgiveness to however higher being is there... but nothing came. I was left here to rot, tortured with these repeating memories to the point of madness.

A sudden Calmness entered my mind, the once mind breaking madness disappeared as if it wasn't there to begin with. Without further ado I looked at this system panel that appeared in my vision.
"Leave the Void..." How exactly am I gonna do that? wait... Sense, what is Sense?
[Ability Name: Sense
Description: Able to Sense nearby things to the Host and gather information directly by the brain or by instinct]
That's great, I just need to know how to use this ability. I closed my eyes then focused as I was focusing I suddenly remembered a tune. It was a tune of something familiar, the green grass, the tall trees, the checkerboard dirt...
"Green Hills Zone."
Then I feel my instinct wants to go somewhere, I can tell it was the place where I will escape this place. It will take exactly 1.2 Billion Light years to get there...
...
Crap. If not for the ability Calmness I would have gone crazy just by knowing it will take that long to get away from this hellish place.
Reluctantly I begin to slowly move towards my destination. In the meantime I get to properly check the things I have been curious about
