I Am So Evil

Hehehe... I don't know if that's a good title, but considering I'll probably just be torturing most of the characters, it fits.

Now, I'll list the pairings for you (Well the ones I have figured out)

Doug/Dylas (forced)

Lest/Arthur (forced)

Um... yeah. 'Forced' meaning I blackmail them into kissing. May or may not escalate into a happy relationship, but... For now, it's forced.

Also I know I should be writing 'The Love of A Dragon' but I decided to wait and finish the plot first... Including the third bonus plot. From what I understand from the *not at all helpful* walkthroughs, Venti dies at the end of the second plot. I'm close to finishing the second plot... I'M SCARED. Even more scared than when I realized I was gonna have to fight Venti!

Then again the walkthroughs aren't giving much information so what do I know?

Okay, that's all. I don't own Rune Factory, and I'm pretty sure that the machine mentioned in this fic doesn't even EXIST.

Today was my 16th birthday. I know most girls love the idea of having a giant party for the big 16. However, my mom had thrown a small party, and I knew exactly why.

I knew what my one gift would be.

Yes, ONE. All together, my family and friend and friend's family had pooled a bunch of money to get me the one thing I wanted. I pretended to be disappointed by the small amount of gifts, even though I'd heard my mom talking about it weeks ago.

Now, I'm not bragging, but I'd like to consider myself an excellent actress. It's a skill I picked up, because I realized that lying only gets so far before you're caught if you aren't an excellent actor AND planner. I was only a planner... Until 13. Heh.

Anyway, my friend was the only one who didn't seem too happy when I opened my gift. She's the one who knew what I'd do with this power...

Oh, I suppose I should explain WHAT the gift was.

It was basically this giant technological dome. It was any hardcore gamer (or in my case, FANGIRL'S) dream. You see, it has a slot on the side. Two, actually. One for disc-games like Wii and XBox, and another for cartridge games, like 3DS. After you've put in the game, you step inside and close the door. Then, you put on the high tech helmet (it came with two, but no one else I knew would want to use it) and it puts you INSIDE the game. Like, you can interact with the characters and everything!

My family was kind enough to buy me the suit that came separately, as well. The suit gives you the full experience- You could LIVE in the game if you wanted to, and you could completely forget that it's a made up world! You could touch, taste and smell EVERY aspect! Whereas the helmet alone simply allows you to interact through sight and sound.

Of course, there's also a microphone attached to the helmet, which allows you to say ANYTHING AT ALL to the characters, and they could respond like REAL PEOPLE.

Believe me, it was awesome... Though I guess I don't need to tell you that, huh?

Ahem... Now, back to the main story.

Everyone had insisted that I eat before going to play around in a virtual world. So, I basically had to sit through pizza and cake. I told my mom that my wish had already come true when she insisted that I blow out the candles. My friend, Vanessa, seemed slightly concerned at that statement.

...Well, more than slightly.

"Tracy, don't try anything TOO stupid, please" she begged. I rolled my eyes.

"Vanessa, you may not realize, but whenever I say that I'd like to smash two characters' heads together in a forced kiss, I'm usually kidding"

"Usually"

"Well, there ARE the normal pairings that I support. Those are the only ones I'd be serious about"

Of course I was totally lying- or acting, whichever you prefer to call it.

Although I wouldn't be forcing any kisses, not by banging heads together at least, I would definitely be having my fair share of pairing-related fun.

"What game are you gonna use, Trace?" my older sister, Raven asked. I smirked. I had told the entire family that I only wanted to use one game in this machine, but the amount I would be spending in it would definitely be worth the cost.

"Rune Factory 4. It's my favorite"

It's a yaoi goldmine was what I wanted to say, but I couldn't because then Vanessa would NEVER let me use that thing without her supervision.

I am sadly not kidding. She'd probably take it home with her if she had to.

After we had all eaten, everyone who didn't live in my home decided to leave to give me some privacy to use my new device. I pulled Rune Factory 4 out of my 3DS game slot, and put it into the slot on the dome.

I went in, pulled the suit over my regular clothes like the manual had said (Otherwise, it said I'd be running around naked) and closed the door. I put the helmet on, and turned on the machine with the remote.

Within seconds, I found myself in front of the castle in RF 4, just by the entrance to Lest (or Frey's) room.

Wait... Which would it be? Lest or Frey?

I found myself unable to determine the time, but then decided that if the characters could pop in randomly when they WEREN'T home just because they liked them, I could go inside just to see who I would be socializing with.

I entered the room. And I was slightly disappointed, because the room was empty. I was about to leave, but I saw another door, one that wouldn't have been there in normal gameplay.

So... Then maybe one sleeps in this room, and the other one sleeps in that room?

Only one way to find out. I went into the mysterious room.

Both Lest AND Frey were sitting on a bed.

Just looking at the two, I realized how different the perspective was. I don't know what I'd expected, but everything looked so different from INSIDE the game.

"Um... Hello?" Lest said, though it sort of sounded like a question. I saw his hand rest on a nearby sword.

"Oh, hi. I'll be popping into town randomly for a while until I get bored"

It was the first thing that came to mind... Don't judge.

"Oh! I understand!" Frey piped up.

"You... Do?" I said, looking at her suspiciously. Frey shrugged.

"We realize we're in a game. You real-life people must have found a way to bring yourselves into our world!"

"That's true, sis. Her clothes aren't exactly normal for the game"

"You guys KNOW you're in a game?!" I exclaimed. Frey shrugged.

"Of course. Everyone knows"

I just gaped at them.

"What's your name?" Lest asked, smiling. I shook myself out of my stupor.

"I'm Tracy..."

"Nice to meet you Tracy!" they chorused.

These people may be weirder than me...


It's been a week. In real life, that is. It had probably been WAY longer in the game world.

I was becoming good friends with everyone, and I had yet to make a move on my pairings. Heck, they didn't even REALIZE that I was an insane fangirl!

That was a good thing, of course. If I earn their trust, they won't be as angry when I try forcing Doug and Dylas to make out.

Although, I'd promised Vanessa I wouldn't bang their heads together, that didn't mean blackmail was out. I smirked to myself as I knocked on Margaret's door.
