Introduction
And so the summer heat has laughed, over and over again, at the same people. Trickery, mischief, deception, all those things are words to describe it.
Now you must be wondering, what is this it I speak of? Simple. The summer heat.
The time you, and I, are stuck in, is summer. Year? No one even knows anymore because of how many times this has repeated every single year. And who knows? You obviously! But also with a lot of other people as well.
These people are also stuck in this little time loop of summer, as well as you and me. Do they notice? Of course! They're been living in it for perhaps years without end? Or are you a newcomer to this cycle of ours? Well in that case, welcome!
As you may have figured out, we are in an everlasting cycle of this lovely summer heat! Now you must be wondering, what happens in this loop?
Everything. You could be a thief, a cop, a terrorist, a doctor, but at the end of summer, none of that matters again because everything resumes back to the beginning of summer, and no one knows! Isn't that amazing? Well... not many people know that is, because there are others such as you and me.
There's nothing special about these people other than they, too, realize the loop, and can choose to rule their life differently than the others. It's... sort of like a game, you know? You are the players, and the NPCs are the regular people like your parents, even a few of your friends. You choose how you play this... game, of yours out, while the NPCs have one job; stay the same and never change.
Not to mention, these people can also sense on another. Strange? Don't think that, because it's completely natural. Usually, this feeling is overwhelming. Any emotion or thought you had on your mind from before just disappears, and you'll find your eyes laying on the other person who notices they're also in the loop. Another thing we're a bit curious about ourselves, but nevertheless, doesn't need to be researched.
How do people recognize the cycle? Easy. It just happens. One day they'll find something strange with their TV, their vision may falter, worse situations may happen, and by the end of their first summer, they'll suffer the loop by waking up the next day and finding that it is, once again, June 21st.
But over time, a few of us has noticed changes in these people, and even the situations in this little city we live about in.
Madness. Yes, that is the correct and exact word to explain what happens after a long while. What makes these poor people go mad is easy.
There is no death. There is no life. There is no pain. There is no end. There is no escape.
Funny, wouldn't you say? One day, perhaps, you'll be hit by a car and die, but then when you wake up, expecting to be in a bright place with many people, what is also known as Heaven, you'll be in your bed again, and check the date. June 21st. All the time dead passes, and you wake up in the same summer, again.
No death.
You cannot live either. Just as said, you could kill people, save people, or just be alone, but when time rewinds again, you're the same person you were the first year, just regular old you.
No life.
Try and hurt yourself out of it? No chance. After realizing our cycle, it'll be hard to feel any pain. Cut yourself, stab yourself, nothing will work. It'll feel dull and everlasting. In fact, it'll feel like nothing.
No pain.
And once things hit September 22nd, things rewind again, like a movie. The actors won't do anything surprising because they can't. It's already been decided for them. But instead, it's more like a game, as I had told you before. The NPCs won't do anything out of turn because it's not the way they were coded, but as the player, see if you want to either screw things up, or put things into order before restarting your last save again.
No end.
Is there any escape? Of course not! If that was the case, wouldn't we all have been long gone by now? Obviously! So what to do now? Pair up and try to find a way out? Will you grow tired of this loop and become insane with what you can do, what fun you can have?
That's all up to you, as the player under the laughing summer heat.
