Before I start this, just want to say this was inspired by Black Mirror and the TikTok trend.

I woke up, Got ready, Opened up Animal Jam, and played. The jamaa journal was the first thing to pop up, considering the fact I haven't played in 5 years. I clicked out of it, went to worlds, then went to Congo. I was extremely happy to finally be back on animal jam, considering it was 1 day till my 16th birthday and I finally got membership. I changed my animal to the new saber-bunny, a hybrid animal animal jam just came out with. I put on some of my finest items, which was my fully magenta headdress and magenta spike. It took me YEARS to collect all of these, but it was worth it! So I thought..

Today was my 16th birthday! I hurried out of my room and on to my holographic laptop. I opened Animal jam. Just like the day before, the daily explorer popped up, but new pages were added. I clicked on the 1st update, and I read it in surprise. It read, "Hello jammers, we decided to put NUMBERS ranking jammers on how RARE they are on their head! Now you can be ranked 1-10 and show off! Unhappy with your NUMBER? Simple! Either you can try and change it to something higher by getting rares, or you can try not to and be banned in the next 10 days! Happy jamming jammers!" I closed off, shocked. I took a look at my animal and saw a big 1 above its head. But how could this be? I was so rare! I had the fully magenta headdress, which was priceless. My stomach dropped as I opened up my avatar and looked in my inventory. Gone. All my good items were gone. I looked at my buddy list, noticing how it was slowly decreasing. My buddies all had 8's and 9's! They probably thought it was a joke how I got a 1. I opened up the worlds and went to Congo. I saw tons of other jammers with low ratings, but even more with high. They all laughed at me, said rude things, and would troll trade me. I didn't have any more courage left to say "trade me" or "looking at offers for my spikes." I just sat. Sat on the boring, old, brown bridge that hid me from the public. I felt like doing nothing, till I remembered. 10 days to change my number or I am banned.

Yes, I will admit, I didn't play for a day to recover after my terrible rating.
