Summary
 
The story is about the world inside psycho-drive computer games which are played by the power of the mind and can be quite dangerous if someone gets trapped inside one of the games. The memory of Sebastian Shultz gets trapped inside his laptop when his head bangs against his laptop during an accident. He slips into a coma with little hope of survival. Another boy, Michael stumbles upon Sebastian while playing one of the games called Wildwest. Sebastian appears dressed as a sheriff and tries to escape from the game but is shot at by one of the men and the game ends. Michael finds himself outside the game and receives a plea of help from Sebastian to help him by playing another game-Dragonquest. Michael responds by entering the game and finds that the game entails that he save a princess called Aurora who is trapped in a tower guarded by a dragon. But before he can save the princess he once again meets Sebastian dressed as a knight who calls out to him to help him escape from the game. The game ends before he is able to save Sebastian, who is eaten up by the dragon. The next day he again receives a message from Sebastian asking for help. He now asks him to try and save him through the game, Jailbreak. Michael responds by entering the game but once again fails to rescue him. Finally Sebastian sends him a message to try for the last time and play the game, Warzone. This time Sebastian is able to rescue Sebastian at the last moment. Simultaneously, he gets to read the news of the miraculous recovery of Sebastian in the hospital. This leaves Michael wondering how real the virtual world of computer games was.

• Michael said - Dad couldn't resist any of the new gadgets or gizmos that came on the market. That was why we went to the Computer Fair. We came away with a virtual reality visor and glove, and handful of the latest interactive psycho-drive games.
 
(c) In what way did the second game seem very real?
Ans. The second game seemed real as it was based on the famous story where a prince comes to rescue a princess imprisoned by some wicket giant. The princess had long golden hair. Most of the teenagers are familiar with the story so it seemed real.

(c) Was the idea a good one, and did it eventually succeed? How?
Ans. The ideal was good but it did not succeed in this game because the helicopter reached late and its speed was slower. The guards and dogs reached the roof before.

In that game Michael and Sebastian use a jeep to reach the helicopter and the helicopter was already waiting when they reach the spot. Michael jumped out of the jeep into the helicopter and it begangoing upwards immediately.
