War Robots Online: The Climb to Master League

Being Revealed

Well, the game here certainly sucks a lot. It's life or death, but the cutoffs don't happen for a while. We're still in the same league as before, it's just that we moved up a few ranks. We once were about to advance, but we lost the challenge by going below the advancement rank, losing our spot. We were worked up for a while, but we took the L and got over it.

There was this item given to all players recently, about a minute or two ago. It was a mirror, it's description said this, "Use the mirror to change your appearance one time!"

"Hey, why don't we use this?" John asked.

"I dunno," Grace started, "I'm not sure if I want to change my appearance, it's fine to me."

"Well, I've certainly seen better people than me." Lucy said.

"I would agree too." Tony replied.

"If a majority of you are doing this, I'll join too." I said.

"Well, all of you AND Collin are doing it, I might as well." Grace gave in.

So we all used the item at the same time. But as we started the character appearance change, we didn't get the screen we expected. Instead, a message was displayed in front of us saying, "Now everyone can see you truly!"

In a bright flash of light, we all changed, not to what our characters would be, but ourselves.

"Oh sh..." I started.

One by one, the light faded, and we saw everyone's true looks.

John was a pretty big person with almost bulging muscles. Green eyes and brown hair. Looked like he was mostly German.

Tony looked quite outlandish. Crazy green tinted black hair almost like an Afro, but not. He came with blue eyes that looked frosted. He was shaped like your average person you'd see at work.

Grace... she was hiding her appearance once she realized what happened. All I could see was her hair, slightly blonde and gray, and, her, ummm, body. I'll skip over that part.

Lucy, wasn't hiding herself like Grace was. She had blonde hair and dark blue eyes. She looked like an athlete. She was quite American for sure.

Grace finally made up her mind and stopped covering herself. She had brown eyes and slightly tanned skin.

And then everyone stared at me. That's when I remembered. I'm only 13, and shorter than everyone here. I was a light brown haired kid with brown eyes and glasses. I was also Asian, and a small bit of tan. I was also ridiculously skinny, looked like I had no muscle, but I don't have any fat. So that would mean I have more muscle in my arms than fat, meaning I'm pretty strong for my age.

"Collin?" Lucy asked.

"How old are you?" Tony finished.

"I'm 13 years 5 months." I answered.

"17" John said aloud.

"18" Said Grace.

"16" Tony said.

"17 too" Lucy said.

So by average, I was roughly 2 and a half years younger than everyone here.

"Yeah..." I started, "yup, that's right! I'm the absolute, youngest, here..."

I looked around, John was at least 5 inches taller than me, Tony was about 2 inches taller, Lucy was 7 inches taller than me, and Grace was about 4 inches taller than me.

I assumed that I would be easy to pick up.

Grace immediately turned red looking at me.

Oh god, she thinks I'm adorable, well that's juuuuuuuuust perfect.

You see, when you're the guy in command, and everyone else is older than you, life is going to be very bad. Especially for me.
