Time : 2 Months before the first Deathgun attack
Game : Gun Gale Online, First BoB
The DGA (Artemis, Wolf, Oblivion, and Nero) group have been playing GGO for a while now, to earn some credits, in order to buy specialty weapons. For the first BoB, the DGA were teamed up with Sinon until they reached the end of the tournament.
Artemis was wielding an M4A1 for his primary, but when he got in CQC he pulled out a 500 S&W Magnum Revolver. He also had a couple weapons he used on other occasions, which he kept in his inventory at all times, as they were lighter weapons, the DP-12 and the M1911 were his other two weapons he used when he felt he was in for fight, even though his M4A1 was better. His M4A1 had an Acog scope, and grip, for extra stability, he also used full metal jackets for the bullets he used, for all his weapons, other than his shotgun, for that particular weapon he used buckshot, trading accuracy for spread shot.
Wolf used a dual wield set of Glock 18s with a specially formed bayonet that was shaped like a khopesh on each one.
Nero used an M60E4 LMG that tore everything to shreds, while dual wielding 2 Colt .357 Pythons for a side, as he, unlike Wolf, liked heavy, strong weapons, but while the Python was not as strong as the Colt .44 Anaconda, he simply did not have the strength stat to dual wield it, as it had a very powerful recoil when shot, though even that didn't have the recoil of the .500 S&W Magnum.
Oblivion, used one of his favorite assault rifles in any FPS, the AN-94 with a hybrid sight, a fore grip, and a select fire, that way Oblivion can switch to burst, that way he wasn't shooting rapidly, causing the recoil to increase. He also wielded an FN Five Seven with a suppressor, whenever he was close to an enemy, or in a situation where stealth was important.
Sinon used her newly acquired, PGM Ultima Ratio Hecate II, a high powered anti-material rifle that could penetrate vehicles and almost any barrier between her and the target.
The group were on the top of a building, there was a squad in front of them, but they were very far and the only way they could see them is if Sinon used the scope of her rifle on max magnification.
"It's been a month since we started playing this, and we haven't logged into ALO in a long time. Hell, I don't even remember why we went into playing this game." Oblivion said.
"To prove something to Roxas and help a friend of ours who is prone to severe danger." Artemis said.
"What kind of severe danger would be prone to anyone? It's not like GGO is like SAO or anything." Oblivion said.
For a moment of silence, Artemis later muttered, "There's a connection to the real and the virtual world, but there's only so many ways the virtual world can become real, and we've only experienced one."
Unfortunately for Artemis, Oblivion heard everything, but Oblivion hadn't said anything and kept his focus towards the squad that was coming in.
"What do those goody two shoes got on them Sinon?" Nero asked.
"Well, one of them is holding an SMG of some kind, but they are still too far for me to identify them. The others have assault rifles." Sinon said.
They waited for the squad to come into view, but they seemed to have turned away into another building, but gunshots can be heard coming from the building. It was then Sinon aimed her rifle and was able to shoot 3 guy's down from the distance they were.
Oblivion, Artemis and Nero were looking the other direction Sinon and Wolf were. Oblivion spotted an enemy who was playing solo. Upon Oblivion asking Sinon to zoom in on him, turns out it was Roxas, who refused to team up with Artemis's group, as he wanted a bigger reward if he won.
Roxas had decided he wanted a beam sword, like Kirito's. The beam was red and had a pure black handle. Roxas also had a Desert Eagle pistol, with a suppressor, and full metal jackets for the bullets he used for it.
Roxas hid behind another building around the corner, he had already saw the group, and with that, they took cover. For a minute of taking cover behind the short wall at the edge of the building, Artemis looked to see that Roxas had moved from his previous position. Artemis only thought one thing, and that was that Roxas had entered the building. As soon as Artemis brought to the group's attention that they needed to check the building, they went ahead and did so. The thing was, Roxas took cover behind a shelf that was broken down in the building. Before they went in, Sinon warned the group to check the inside first, then the top. The group agreed to this.
The group slowly opened the door, but unfortunately blew their cover since Roxas was looking towards the door and started shooting at Artemis. They quickly took cover, putting an end to Roxas shooting, for now. They heard Roxas move to the top of the building, and with that, Artemis ordered someone to throw a grenade, however nobody had any more grenades on them. Artemis decided to go up himself, so he ordered someone to act as a decoy. Oblivion, being an AGI and STA type, went ahead and took the job.
As Artemis walked upstairs to the top of the building, he saw that Roxas was putting his attention to Oblivion. Artemis saw bullet lines coming from the ground too, which meant that Oblivion took a shot at killing him, or, Oblivion being the decoy, is trying to distract him. Nevertheless, Artemis quietly took cover behind a vent and drew his 500 S&W Magnum and waited for a clear shot at Roxas. When Roxas got up and started shooting at the ground, Artemis heard what could be Oblivion getting shot. With that, it was important that Artemis quickly end Roxas, as there was no decoy anymore. Artemis took a deep breath, slowing down his heart rate, and once the time came, he put a bullet straight through Roxas's head, avenging Oblivion's death.
Artemis gestured the others to get to the top of the building to recap, and check their surroundings. When the last other two of the group got there, Artemis started speaking, "Oblivion, you saw Roxas kill him right?"
"Uh huh, and now we gotta finish the last squad, which are coming right now. So get your stuff together and take cover." Sinon said.
The group did as Sinon said. Sinon used her scope to investigate the squad's gear. She saw one had a Minigun, and the others had Assault Rifles and SMG's. Sinon took aim at the one with the Minigun first. As she pulled the trigger and the bullet appeared to have hit the man, all it did was get the attention of the squad as the bullet only took out a chunk of the man's Health. The squad took cover, except for the Heavy, who started shooting hundreds of bullets up at the top of the building, and killed Nero in the process. Artemis went downstairs to see if Roxas dropped any grenades, which he did. Artemis picked up the grenade and went upstairs to take a shot at blowing up the man.
Soon enough after the opposing squad saw Artemis in the building, and go upstairs, they knew where they were, but that didn't matter because the group was staying up there to finish the squad from getting much of a reward. Artemis, when he was ready, pulled the pin of the grenade, and threw it towards the Heavy over at the left side of the field. The grenade rolled over to the Heavy's foot after landing closeby. The Heavy had a second to react to run from the Grenade, but he was too slow and his Health was depleted until it hit the red. Sinon then aimed her rifle at the man and when she was calm, pulled the trigger and sent a high calibre bullet flying towards the man's head fast enough that the man could not react to the bullet line, killing the man.
The rest of the squad saw Sinon and started shooting in her direction. Sinon quickly took cover and Artemis and Wolf jumped off the back of the building. Artemis and Wolf split up and ran towards each side of the field. Artemis switched for his M4A1 and took cover behind a wall. As Artemis looked to the left, he saw bullet lines, so he looked to the other side and saw bullet lines as well. Artemis looked above him and saw no bullet lines, so he switched for his 500 S&W Magnum and reached over the wall and started shooting in the direction of the bullet lines and killed 2 of them before the bullet lines moved towards Artemis's arm, to which he quickly moved his arm from the bullet lines. Artemis saw as the bullet lines disappear, which meant that they were moving. This gave Artemis the opportunity to shoot down any moving enemies. Artemis switched for his M4A1 and started shooting at the guy's in the open. Artemis killed all of which who weren't in cover, leaving 3 guy's left for Artemis to kill.
Artemis looked over in Sinon's direction as she was still sniping enemies down. Artemis saw a bullet line pointed on Sinon's head, coming from a sniper on the right side. Artemis saw as the bullet flew towards Sinon, finishing her. Artemis then moved position, pulling out his 500 S&W Magnum and shot towards any open enemy as he ran to the left, but he managed to finish of the rest of them as Wolf shot the last one on the right side of the field.
When they collected their thoughts, they walked to the top of the building they were at originally. Artemis saw as Wolf pulled out a grenade. Artemis knew what Wolf was gesturing Artemis for. They would do what is called the Souvenir Grenade, which means they end off the tournament by exploding themselves with one of them holding a grenade and the other in the range of the grenade's explosion radius.
Artemis nodded, and Wolf pulled the pin with his teeth and they both held the grenade. Soon enough, the grenade killed them both, ending the first BoB, with the victory going to Artemis and Wolf, giving them both the same rewards. With the first BoB put to an end, the group went on to celebrate, and they decided to dive into ALO to celebrate with their friends as well, as the next BoB would be next month.
As they had drinks in ALO with everyone, Artemis thought about how Deathgun was to attack a pro player while he was in a live show as his avatar, which would be broadcasted to GGO. Artemis didn't know if Deathgun would show up though because this time around he possibly died in SAO.
"Hello? You there?" Roxas said, snapping his finger beside Artemis's ear.
"Ow, yes I am. I was just, contemplating." Artemis said before taking a sip of his drink.
"I was talking about how you put a bullet in my head after I killed Oblivion here with my Desert Eagle." Roxas said, as Oblivion sighed.
"Yeah, well how about the fact that Nero got torn to shreds by the guy with the Minigun?" Artemis said.
"It's only a matter of time until they ban those fucking things." Nero said angrily.
"You should have taken cover, everyone did except for you, you were trying to pop the guy with that thing of yours." Oblivion said.
"The things recoil got out of control, it's not my fault." Nero said.
"Well with how far you were from the guy, that thing would never hit the guy. If it's the recoil that got you into a tight spot then you should've gotten an assault rifle." Oblivion said.
Nero simply turned to the group. "You guy's were watching live right?" Artemis asked, to those who weren't in GGO.
They all nodded. "So, I saw Roxas had a beam sword or something along the lines right?" Kirito asked, curiously.
"Uh huh, that was. They come in a variety of colours too." Sinon said.
"And the game has a money conversion system too?" Kirito asked.
"Yup, and with that, I might be able to get that thing Lisbeth saw online that she really wanted." Oblivion said smiling. Lisbeth looked towards him and smiled too.
Kirito yawned and said, "It's getting late, me and Leafa are gonna log out pretty quickly here."
"Well, take care." Artemis said, as Kirito and Leafa logged out.
Time: The day of the first Deathgun Attack
Game: Gun Gale Online
The second BoB was put to an end already and before the third one started, Artemis messaged the group who were playing GGO to come to a bar and watch a live show. Artemis mentioned that he was expecting something important to go down there, and the group did so...
