Snippet #1901273

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BE- *SMACK*

"Shut up, damn it."

Pulling his hand back under the covers he curled into a ball and lay there in his bed. A few more minutes wouldn't hurt. He had been up all night and he needed sleep. School could wait.

BEEP BEEP BEE- *SMACK* *CRASH*

Great. Now the damn thing was on the floor out of reach. If it went off again he would have to get up and shut it off. The world was harsh..... at least to him anyways. Letting out a loud groan, Shirasaki Yuuka threw off the covers and swung his legs, lazily over the side of the bed. Glancing at the digital clock at his bedside, he sighed. 7:28 A.M. If he rushed and skipped breakfast then he would possibly make it to class about seconds before the bell. But rushing was out of the question. He wasn't in the mood. Getting to his feet with a grunt, Yuuka stretched and made his way to the bathroom.

"OW! What the-?" Something cold and hard hit his feet and he looked down to see what had dared get in his way. A small chrome cube lay at his feet. How did that get there? Remembering that he set it on his desk last night, Yuuka probably fell asleep using it. Picking up the shiny box, Yuuka's finger automatically slipped to the large red button on the side. The bright holographic screen popped up and Yuuka stared at it in awe. Apple was cooking up some pretty amazing stuff these days and the iCube was just a prototype nobody thought was possible. But here it was. Many folders, readings, icons and different apps floated in front of his eyes. Bringing his finger up, Yuuka scrolled through the screen finally coming to what he was looking for.

Project Ningen no Kami [TOP SECRET]

Finger frozen above the icon, Yuuka suddenly threw the cube onto his bed, the impact instantly deactivating the holographic screen shutting the thing off. Human gods. What the hell was this world coming to? What would happen to the rest of them that "weren't perfect"? It was like Hitler all over again.


Finishing his shower, Yuuka felt refreshed, but the events of last night still left him feeling drowsy and exhausted. Slipping on his school uniform, Yuuka dragged his feet down the stairs as he struggled to tie his tie. He hated the thing but the school made it mandatory to wear it correctly. The Shirasaki house was pretty enormous. Being the son of a multibillionare had its advantages but it got extremely lonely at times. Especially with Her gone......

Finally getting his tie to cooperate, Yuuka stepped into the large kitchen. State of the art, and neat, the place wasn't to terribly decorated but it was still fancy. No time for breakfast. He was already running late.

"Crap!"

Bolting back up the stairs Yuuka rummaged about his room wildly. "Where are you, where are y- There!"

Holding up his cell phone in triumph, Yuuka flew to his closet and snatched out a red hoodie. Making his way back to the door, he paused. Without any reason at all, Yuuka snatched up the iCube. What the hell. He might as well bring it. Wouldn't want the maids finding it and telling his parents. That would be the worst. Yuuka made it to the back door without breaking anything and slipped on his shoes. Grabbing his school bag by the door he set the cube gently into the side pocket. The bus was out of the question. He could steal his dad's car, but since he was coming home early, Yuuka didn't want to risk it. Then it hit him. The bike! Flipping up his hood, Yuuka opened the door leading to the garage. If he wanted to get to school on time, he would have to get there fast. And he had just the thing.
