Chapter 7: Alpha and Beta
The next morning...
William\ Robert: "YOU GUYS WENT SERVER SURFING WITHOUT US????!!!!"
Kyle: "Relax, it was only a test run with the boards."
Robert: "Why did I have to have a stuffy nose yesterday?!"
William: "It's fine. No exploration was done without us."
Isabel: "We're going to check out Alpha and Beta today right?"
Andrea: "Seems like a plan."
Bell rings.
All 7: "Let's meet up here."
Throughout the day, Shining Star keeps seeing people showing off ID Cards and the further mention of Tomorrow's Knights, until the day ends.
Anthony: "(excited) Now let's head over to the Alpha server!"
William: "You guys can even show us where we can get our boards!"
The seven rush towards the Login building and log in.
Anthony: "Follow me!"
Everyone enters the board shop by the ocean a few minutes later.
Robert: "Oh... that's why they're boards."
William notices the cost of the cheapest board.
William: "(shocked) H-Holy shit these things are expensive!"
Robert notices as well.
Robert: "(shocked) Looks like only the best of the best get to server surf!"
Anthony: "(cocky) That's us right?"
Kyle: "But of course!"
Isabel: "Yes."
Anthony: "(cocky) See?"
The two spend nearly all of their money on boards.
William: "Just teach us how to ride these things."
Everyone goes outside and readies their boards.
Kyle: "(jumping on board) Listen guys, all you have to do is-"
Kyle takes off like a rocket again.
Kyle: "(in the distance) Thiiiiiisssss..."
Micheal and Anthony hop onto their boards.
Micheal: "Just get your balance and push forward a little."
Anthony and Micheal blast off after Kyle.
William: "Okay..."
William, Robert, Isabel, and Andrea blast off towards Alpha.
Robert: "This shit is awesome!"
William: "W-Whoa!"
Isabel: "Just try to keep your balance! We're almost there!"
The four see land in the distance.
Andrea: "Land ahoy!"
The four find Kyle tripping on the shore as they arrive.
Kyle: "(dizzy) Why does that keep happening to me?"
Anthony: "(laughing) I have no idea!"
The others walk up to them.
William: "So each server has a different theme.."
Andrea: "Yeah, Delta is more Eastern while here, it's more like ancient European cities."
Anthony: "Let's start exploring!"
Robert: "(in awe) Yeah..."
The seven walk around the main city of Alpha. There are NPC sheep herders, temples dedicated to gods, and the shops are all in a marketplace by the shore. The enemies look different, but have identical abilities to Delta, but they dropped different items.
Andrea: "Alpha really is different from Delta."
Kyle: "We definitely need to come back at some point!"
Isabel checks the time.
Isabel: "It looks like we have enough time to check out another server."
Robert: "Why not Beta?"
William jumps onto his board when they get to the shore.
William: "Let's go then!"
Micheal and Anthony hop on their boards as William takes off.
Anthony: "See you guys there!"
Micheal and Anthony follow.
Kyle: "(jumping on board) I should have this-"
Kyle flies off again without warning.
Kyle: "(in the distance) C'MON!!!!"
The remaining three hop onto their boards and fly off. Five minutes later...
Isabel: "There's our stop!"
They jump off to see Kyle face planted into the ground.
Kyle: "(muffled) Every time..."
William pulls Kyle out of the ground.
William: "Everyone's here."
The landscape of Beta is far more desert like than Alpha and Delta. The buildings are sheriff offices, general stores, and saloons, but as they explored...
Borian: "Aegis, the X program is complete."
Cian: "(exhausted) I can barely feel my hands."
Liam: "No kidding."
Aegis begins laughing.
Aegis: "Gialias, Quenis! Initiate the X program. Lykio, Misilo, everyone! You can head home early today."
Liam: "O-Okay!"
Everyone leaves the moment the X program is activated.
Aegis: "(laughing) Now to wait for the program to infect all ID Gloves! And to think that they don't even know a thing about what X even is!""
Back in Beta...
Robert: "What the?"
Robert notices a small group of Players have a blank, emotionless stare in their eyes and their skin got a little paler.
Isabel: "(thinking) How bizarre... but why is the question."
Micheal: "(puzzled) Maybe they lost track of time and never went home."
William checks the time.
William: "We should log out. We'll think about it more tomorrow."
All seven log out.
Robert: "Let's go to Omega tomorrow. We can think more about as we surf."
Andrea: "Okay..."
The seven head home...
