You two have played video games for years. You've never spoken because neither of you could afford headsets. But recently a tournament sponsor has noticed the skill of both you and Sam. They have reached out to you and Sam to attend a big international tournament with a grand prize of over 100 million dollars.

Your taxi pulls up to the hotel, the summer day hot and muggy. Stepping up to the door your heart drums fiercly in your chest. You walk inside the lavish hotel, marble floors, a bell hop takes your bags and guides you to the check in desk.
Checking into your suite, you realize your room is on the second to the top floor. Your nerves tighten thinking about how tall this building was. Till 2 days ago you had never been out of your small town in Nebraska. Now you're in downtown Tokyo.
Once settled in your room you get a call on the room phone. Its a female, "He.. hello? Is this Shad0wF0x391?" Staggered by being called by your gamer tag, you reply "yes, who is this?"
A beat.
"Its UnicornBass"
Your heart stops.
