"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! AND WHY CAN'T I CHANGE IT BACK!"
"I hacked into the control system of this imaginary space and hijacked your fantasy's"
"WHAT?! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!"
"HAHAHAHAHA!"
"Uhm… Miss Nox what is happening?" Zhang Wei timidly asked.
"Kid, weren't you paying attention earlier?"
"Uh…"
*sigh*
*snap*
And with that the grotesque hellscape transformed into the past events from Nox and Zhang Wei's trial. Nox put on her teachers' glasses again and manifested another hand with a ruler she used to point at her past self.
"So, this began a long, long, couple of minutes ago. When a bad egg called Zhang Wei wanted to cheat on his inheritance trial to get a better score."
"Hey, that was y-"
"He threatened this meek and innocent professor Nox with violence if she didn't give him the answers to the test, so I gave it to him."
"What?"
"But poor little Zhang Wei was too stupid to understand or even just remember the answers, so as an educator I had to do something. That's when I had the brilliant idea of disabling the surveillance camera installed in the wall, break open a maintenance hatch disguised as one of the corner tiles, break into the main control room and alter the admin ID for this imaginary space you created where the laws of physics don't apply. That way I could just grab bad boy Wei and jump through a portal that would take us straight to the graduation ceremony. Zhang Wei would get his graduation papers without putting in any effort and I could go home. The End"
"NO, THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE! I NEVER MADE SUCH A PATHWAY CONNECTING TWO THOSE TO ROOMS! THIS IS AN IMAGINARY SPACE CONTROLLED BY ME, MY WORD IS LAW, THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY ROOM OR PATHWAY I DIDN'T CREATE WITHIN THIS REALM!"
"Well, you're half right. 5 points to the old man."
"WHAT!?"
"Barring the main control room that serves as an anchor and processor for this place. You had absolute control of the environment within these little pocket dimensions. That said, when you don't thoroughly and meticulously craft every detail of the room with care, any blank spaces will either A: Be filled in by your subconscious. Or B: turn into an access point to a separate space, like with the underwater portal connecting the earlier trial rooms."
"…"
"Any questions?"
"Sensei Nox. I ha-"
"Good! Then we can get back to the fiery bowels of hell."
*snap*
And with another snap of her fingers the world returned to the fiery hellscape from earlier, only this time the spectral old man had shrunk down to a normal size. As his spectral appearance was being painted over by flesh and blood until he looked just like any old man you would see on the street.
"What?! How did you make me a functional flesh and blood body? That isn't something this place can do. Also, this place is too big, the system wasn't designed for this big of a space."
"The only reason you couldn't make a functional body before, was because you lacked the know how to do so. As for the size of this, well my current theory is that if I overclock these imaginary spaces memory space while overheating the energy generator, it'll cause a malfunction in the master lock keeping me from opening the exit to this pocket dimension. Anyways, bye."
"WhaaAAAAAAHHHH"
The old man's screams echoed across the bloodstained horizon as he was sucked in by one of the countless screaming mouths below.
"Hey, Nox."
"Oh, good you stopped laughing like a madman. What's up playboy."
"You just mentioned something about your escape plan being only theoretical, right?"
"Right?"
"So, what would happen if this theory of yours was wrong, and you can't open the exit?"
"We either die, get trapped forever, or have to kill each other to get out like that old goat said."
"Wait, what was th-"
"And here we go!"
"WAIT NOX LET'S TALK ABOUAAAHAAAAAAAH"
Just then the entire world expanded as reality started to stretch and bend as everyone could feel their insides being turned into their outsides.
