Lobby Adventures
Introduction of DOOM!
Episode #1

The lobby -- a place where hunter's unite for one common purpose -- to piss the hell out of each other. Or at least
that's how I look at it. I never really took the lobby too seriously... it was just one of those places I could go to be a
moron. Even though I was kind of an idiot wherever I went. I guess I'm kind of starting to stray from the point. I'm
one of those Hunters you see in the lobby and you start to think -- "Why the hell do they even want him to go to Ragol?!".
That's a question I can't even answer. Why do they want me to go to Ragol. Wait... I don't go there. I basically sit in the
lobby and chat all day. That might be why I'm only level eighty-four.

"Outlaw! Stop daydreaming!" said a stray voice.

I couldn't quite figure out who was talking to me. I'm stupid in that kind of way. Sounded like a girl. I thought
I scared away most of the girls. Guess not.

"Outlaw? Remember me?" asked the woman.

"No."

I felt a sharp pain in my cheeks. A pain that felt like the fury of a thousand eels. I had just been slapped... by
someone I didn't even remember. How's that for ironic?

"It's me Lina..." she stated.

"Ohhhhhh.... right. I remember you," I said even though I didn't really remember her. I didn't want to get slapped again.

"Good, I thought I was going to have to slap you again." she laughed.

I told you she would have slapped me. Her face looked kind of familiar -- but I wasn't really paying attention to her
face. A little lower if you know what I mean. Go ahead call me a pervert. Any man would have done it. Then it hit me -- her
hand -- again. She had caught me looking down her shirt.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Lina questioned me.

"Everything," I replyed.

"You know how easily I could kick your ass, Outlaw?"

"Just because your level 154 doesn't mean anything."

"Alright I challenge you to a battle then!" She said to me.

"Fine... If I win you have to flash me... if you win.... uhhh... you can win?"

"WHAT? I'm not agreeing to that. We'll just have a battle, no prizes."

"Whatever."

I knew she could beat me up any day. It's sad, but it's true. I only went to Ragol if no one was chatting. And that
was rare -- quite rare. When we arrived at the temple she had an S-Rank needle and what did I have, you ask? A crappy
ancient saber. Seriously, how much damage could I do with an ancient saber? Slim to nothing. Ancient Sabers sucked more than
a Las Vegas hooker. But I lived on the wild side and decided to use it for the battle. To make a long story short she
kicked my ass within the first few minutes. Her points were in the 10,000's and even though I had been artificially
leveled all the way up to level 200(because she had killed me so much). She still won.

When I arrived back at the lobby I was laughed at, then laughed at some more, and some more. See what I mean
about the lobby being a place to piss each other off. With my scoreboard of zero wins I was the laughing stock of
Pioneer Two. Someday I would win a battle. Some day. My friend Shadow was waiting for me in the lobby. He was
expecting me to win.

"Dude! Guess who I'm going out with?" Shadow asked.

"Who?"

"Lina!"

"WHAT? Just a word of advice don't let her catch you looking down her shirt..."

"Why?"

"You'll find out soon enough."

And with those final words I let out my disconnect symbol chat icon.

MORE TO COME...
