.hack/RIPPLES

Chibi-Meower: Wow, it's been such a long time since I last wrote! And now I'm in… 9TH GRADE! O.O Wow! But anyways, I have deleted all of my other stories, because I've gotten into hating them, and I just can't write the way I did in those stories, so they shall never be finished. Don't anyone ask to get the stories again, as I have deleted them from everywhere I can find. I Just Don't want to look at those bad stories again… Now about this story, this is my NEW .hack fan fiction, and will be much longer then other stories I've written (hopefully) And I'm hoping it turns out better then my last stories. Now the chapter will commence!

.hack/RIPPLES/Phase.0

"Log In"

"I watched as the ripples grew, only until something was to block it and stop the coming ripples. I realized then, that for anything to continue to grow, something must be removed."

"I'm going on mom!" I shouted down to my mother as I plugged into The World.

The World is an MMORPG, which allows its players to go on things like quests with their friends in groups of three members. For a time the party size was not limited and we were allowed to invite all of our friends into one large party. The system admins felt this was giving too much of an advantage to the players, and took it away.

I walked around only to stop dead in my tracks within seconds. It was as if the game had frozen… Why… Why Can't I…breathe! I was startled, I couldn't move. All of a sudden, I was lying down, and I tried sitting up, but as soon as I did, there was a glass substance in front of me, and it felt as it the case I was in was filling up with… water! My arms move out to form a cross with my body… was this… It can't be… SKEITH! I couldn't move once more, I tugged away from the staff, but my character wouldn't budge… I tried to get my real body to take off the FMD Goggles, but I couldn't… was this the end? What was happening to this place? What is—Aura!

"Please no, Skeith! She will not do anything! Morgana please… Don't… You mustn't hurt her!" She shouted while shield my character from harm. What was going on?

Was this some kind of special event? But what's going on outside the game? Usually I could just take my headset off and the event would pause… but now, it's like I'm not even offline… It's like I'm an AI…

Before I could make more sense out of the event, Aura sent Skeith away, and she turned to me.

"You will save this world… But something you may call dear must leave you until Phase 1 is complete… Please Understand… We will surely meet again…" She said using what I believed to be Data Drain on me… Wait DATA DRAIN?

"No! Don—" I stopped… Nothing came out of my mouth, I couldn't speak! What was this? This couldn't be some simple event!

"Please forgive me… this is the will of this world… You shall save us all from—Morgana no! Don't! Please!" She was taken out of sight and did not finish what she was going to tell me…

I fell to the ground on my knees and cried… This—this can't—CANNONT—be happening… This is The World! Nothing ever goes wrong here! Nothing ever does! But why am I like this now? What did Aura mean? What is Aura planning? Why can't I log out!

"I was the last in what was called The World's Ripples… I was only to hope to make through this event… and live to tell. But then again who would believe a kid like me?"

Chibi-Meower: Oh! Cliffhanger! I hope this is coming out good, cause I really like it! Please comment!
