In an abandoned mall near Baton Rogue, Louisiana, the faint glow of a distant room pierces through the darkness of the night.

Faint music can be heard, completely unidentified, but giving off the feeling of a warm pie on a sunny afternoon.

A few guards are in a hidden security room nearby, its pristine appearance contrasting the decrepit interior of the mall.

If someone would enter that glowing room, it would change into an obstacle course, perfectly suited to the recipient's limitations or abilities.

A baby would get a conveyor to the end of the course. A horse would get hurdles. A pole vaulter would get a tall bar, and a snowboarder gets a mountain.

Basically, all you need to win is to try. Even if you have no physical abilities, even if you're in a coma. You can still make it to the end.

The entity who creates these courses is benevolent, at least according to the currently limited amount of study. Tests are starting up again now, after Incident [REDACTED].

Guards, scientists, a couple of medics, and a group of D-Class enter the area outside the room.

"Alright you guys." Begins a scientist, appearing to be the leader. "D-1939 will enter first. The rest of you stay back."

D-1939 looks apprehensive, but annoyed at the same time.
