Chapter 10: System
Shining Hope finds less Players in town than back when they entered.
Edo: "(sarcastically) Well my confidence just shot up ten times."
Players begin logging out left and right, only leaving five or six others Players on this messed up Delta server.
Asaka: "It may be cool to have an opportunity to have both games collide, but this is just way out of hand."
Isabel: "(thinking) So why did Anti-Aegis give us a time limit that lasts till the end of break? They could easily take all of us out at once."
Anthony: "Probably a case of cockiness."
Risa: "We did get to see them beat the SHIT out of those two."
Zack/ Micheal: "(sighing) Can you please stop talking about that?"
Risa: "I'm mainly talking about the one who tried it AFTER the first one failed to do the exact same thing."
Roy: "(shrugging) She got you Zack."
Zack's face turns bright red.
William: "Let's just go to the next boss. We're going to need some sources of light."
Micheal: "We can handle it."
The group makes their preparations and head to the ruins nearby town.
Serena: "Let's try not to get separated in there."
The group arrives and steps inside.
Robert: "(in awe) Wow..."
The inside of the ruins is now more than just blank walls, but have intricate drawings of civilization, like hieroglyphics.
Micheal: "Stay behind Zack and me."
The group makes their way deeper into the ruins, only for a pathway split.
Zack: "Let's head this way."
Ten of them head right, but...
Asaka: "(confused) Guys?"
Asaka, Risa, Serena, and Andrea were a little slower than the others and didn't know which path they took.
Andrea: "Let's head right."
Risa: "Funny. The Rouge and I believe Ninja are slower than the rest."
Serena: "Funny jokes all around."
The four take the right path in complete darkness.
Andrea: "(sarcastically) Perfect."
Asaka: "(sarcastically) Perfect time to trip a few times."
The four continue down this pathway until...
Roy: "(afraid) Where are Risa and the others?"
Everyone stops and looks around.
Tori: "They must've gotten seperated!"
Emily: "That doesn't sound good."
Micheal: "We need to head back!"
William: "No, we could be on he right path."
Zack: "One of our lights needs to head down the other path along with any of the others for backup."
Micheal: "I'll head back, but who's with me?"
Roy and Kyle raise their hands.
Kyle: "Then let's hurry!"
The three head back.
Roy: "(in the distance) Just head back if it's the wrong path!"
The three rush back.
Meanwhile...
Serena: "Is that light?"
The four girls step into a gigantic room.
Andrea: "They must've gone down the other path."
A massive bat swoops don from the ceiling as a small blink occurs on their ID Cards and Gloves.
Asaka: "What does that mean?!"
Risa: "We're going to need a power boost for this fight!"
Andrea: "True, but what're you suggesting?!"
Risa holds out her ID Glove hand.
Risa: "Let's use this Bio-Link!"
Asaka: "Fair enough and if it can work IRL, it should be safer here."
The bat and it's tiny rider ready to strike.
Risa: "Let's do it Asaka!"
Asaka and Risa swipe their stuff together like an anime sword clash.
ID Glove: "Bio-Link initiated."
A pillar of water envelopes the two as Serena and Andrea are enveloped in shadows.
Risa/ Asaka: "Now let's go!"
The two have magic emanating off of a karate gi with a glowing glare in their eyes.
Andrea/ Serena: "Alright!"
Black energy emanates off of their thief's outfit with a similar glare.
Risa/ Asaka: "Let's beat this thing nice and quick!"
A wave of electrified water blasts towards the boss as shadows head for the rider.
Andrea/ Serena: "This should be easy!"
The attacks connect, dealing a shit ton of damage.
Andrea/ Serena: "Now to just-"
Everyone seperates.
Risa: "(exhausted) really takes it out of you."
Serena: "(exhausted) For how short it is."
The boss does a boatload right back at them.
Asaka: "(exhausted) Are we screwed?"
???: "No need to fear..."
Roy, Micheal, and Kyle arrive in the room.
Roy: "...(smiling) because I am here!"
Micheal: "Something is telling me that's an anime reference."
Risa: "(bluntly) It is."
Roy gives the boss a nice slash with his scythe and Kyle takes advantage of the moment with a headshot to the rider.
Risa: "(in awe) Like my anime heroes."
Micheal brutally decapitates the bat, giving everyone EXP.
Andrea: "(standing up) Thanks for the save guys."
They hear the others running through the hallway.
Emily: "Of course when you're behind you pick the right path."
The groups join up.
Edo: "Looks like you guys took take of it."
Risa: "We tested the Bio-Link ourselves."
Serena: "Walker needs to lengthen the time limit."
Zack: "We're just glad you're not dead."
Robert: "Enough talk about how some of us almost died, we hit a dead end and had to book it here!"
Risa: "(bluntly) We did what we had to do, so can we just get out of here?"
William: "Yeah, and tomorrow we're going to have a trilogy!"
Michael/ Twins: "No."
Everyone logs out and heads home...
