Stardom - Logan Williams

Logan was enjoying the bliss he had been given for the first time. His parents were seated on the sofa talking to each other. While his sisters were on his bed. Bella has calmed down, she had used up all her lacrimal glands. Mia was gushing on and on about the house, about her school, and about his room which had been left as it is by his parents. She was really happy that her big brother had woken up and that now she had additional person to play with. She continued her chatterbox about the name and characteristics of her dolls. Logan looked dotingly at his little sister and said:"Little Mia, are going to allow me to play with your dolls?" The idea of a grown a.s.s man playing with dolls was a bit too hard for him to accept but he would do anything for his little sister. "Ofcourse," she said with a beaming smiles. Those dimples made Logan pinch her cheeks.

He looked at his mom and dad who were talking between themselves. Dad was saying:" Honey, we should check in into the hotel, freshen up and come back."

Helen looked at her husband and faking anger said:"I have met my son after so long and you want me to separate him from me so early. I am not going. You take the girls and go get checked in. I am staying with him. Get me my clothes when you come back." She looked at his frail son and felt as if he might disappear any moment. Arthur knew how tired she was from the travelling especially when she had done a major surgery in the morning.

Arthur looked at his son and silently gestured with his eyes to convince his mother to take rest by going to the hotel. Logan caught what his father was implying and started:"Mum..." "Our son has not had a day from waking up from the coma and you are already plotting against me with him." Helen feigned anger interrupting him. Logan felt warm seeing the scene.

He said with expecting eyes:"Dad, don't worry. Let her stay. I will make sure she sleeps for a while."

"Fine. Fine. You and your mom have always worked against me" he said sighing.

"Come on girls. We are going to the hotel. Lets come back later."

"We are staying with big brother;"they said in unison. Logan started laughing. He had just recovered, so after a while, laugh turned into coughs. Helen became worried and said:"Don't strain yourself baby." She started patting his back.

She said to the girls:" Go on. Your dad's calling you. Come back as soon as you can".

After going back and forth and a lot of coaxing to Mia who was adamant on staying on her brother's l.a.p, she finally agreed to leave when Logan promised to play with her everyday.

When all of them left Logan persuaded his mom to sleep on the adjacent bed. Seeing his mom sleep calmly, he felt calm inside.

Now was the time to find out more about the system. He mentally called out for the status menu.

A 3D menu came infront of his vision.

[Welcome to the system! Do you want to name the system? ]

Logan though about it for a moment and said:["Yes. Stardom. Name the system as Stardom."]

Logan's eyebrows twitched after reading far far far far..How could his charm be so low and what about his vocals? Did he get a busted voice this time too?

Logan felt depressed: ["System ,why are my stats so low".]

[Host has been in a vegetative state for 6 years. All his muscles have undergone atrophy including his facial and vocal muscle]

This System was a heavenly gift to him aside from his family. He had to use it to its fullest capacity. He could improve his voice, his charm , his physique. What more would a superstar ask for? This system was perfect for him. He secretly felt happy that he died slipping on a banana peel. Now he had go through all the memories of the previous Logan Williams in order to understand his overall situation. In order to avoid suspicion he had to totally become The Logan Williams. Combing through the memories he had to be sure whether the accident was really a accident or was it premeditated. After all his father was criminal defence attorney. He must have many enemies. His previous lifetime had taught him a lesson. Humans can be worse than animals. If he found someone had a hand in this... his eyes showed the coldness he had kept deep hidden, for the first time since he woke up. No one could hurt his family.
