Chapter 1: Log On
Keto Hero seemed like any other teenager. He loved hanging with friends, computers, video games, karate; he even was on the soccer team of his high school. Even though his grades were high and he could of finished high school a year earlier he stayed to be with his friend. He was a good person and helped many people. If you did not like him it was no problem with him, he'd still treat as a normal person and continued his life. No worth worrying over stupid things was what he told people when he was asked about it.
After practice he walked up to his house, taking of his shoes at the door. His mom hated how he tracked in mud from practice. Then he checked the fridge. There was a note left on it by his mom. She was always busy and he never saw much of her. They worked hard to live in their house, even Keto took a job to help out, but she never let him give her the money. "You worked for it, you keep it." He never needed it, maybe a night at the movies or a quick bite at a raman stand, nothing more then simple things. It worried him so he helped out with grouches and other things.
Keto I left some food in the fridge for your dinner. I'll be home later tonight. Hope you do well on your game this weekend. Love Mom
"You work to hard." He said as he took out the meal and ate it as he walked into his room. Laying his bag on the floor next to his door as he entered. He almost spilt the food as he slid the bag off his shoulder. After he finished it, he set the bowel on his desk. He took a quick shower to change into some normal clothes. He finally sat down at his computer and flipped on the screen, the familiar blue screen as it loaded and the hum of the modem. Then he placed the helmet on his head and picked up the controller.
Welcome to the worldHe headed to the screen where he could log into his character, his eyes now his. He had to make a new one only a couple of weeks earlier. The admen had to delete him, he hacked the character and caused a few problems, one not his intention. His character was a blade master, he liked them the best. He worked hard on his character and spent many hours on it. Each character he made, was a new personality, a new person.
For the world anything was possible. He had long hair that seemed to stick out in odd angles; it was a dark blue, black mixing with it. It matched his eyes. On his face he had a black arrow. His clothes were odd and a little tampered with. It was a traditional Japanese fighter suit; his left arm had a long sleeve that wrapped around his arm, while the other was completely gone, cut from the shoulder. It was all trimmed in white. It took him a good day to finish it, and he was happy with it. He was not going to let this character get deleted. It was only harmless fun anyway. He loved being able to mess with the encryption of codes and bend them to his ways. He never did anything to harm another character, only just to make the game interesting.
He pulled up his friends list, he sighed at the disappointment. None of his friends where on, they did have exams coming up, but he needed at least a mage to handle the healing. He was after the rare item called the ice cube. It was not the most powerful weapon or a worthy item. It was meant for trade, and he was a bit of a collector of odd things. Only one place held this item, so it made it rare. He guessed he could look for a mage to tag along. He walked the streets of Mac Anu and looked for anyone that seemed worthy of joining him.
As he walked he finally found a girl mage. She was leaning on the rails of the bridge. She had a black outfit on that left little to imagine. Now that he thought of it he never saw a character suit like it before. It clung to her body before it dropped from her waist and covered her feet. It traced her avis figure very well and even her blond hair went well with the outfit, even under the pointed witches hat. He must have been staring for a while, because she looked at him and laughed a bit. "You need something? ' She asked. Even the voice matched her beauty. Though he new it could be anyone on these computers. He would take the chance for the help.
"I need a mage to accompany me on my travels."
"Well I am a mage, and I would be happy to help."
"Thank you." He said as he put in the bow command. She returned the bow. He gave her his membership card and she returned it with hers. He quickly invited her and she accepted, her stats now available to him. She would work, she was two levels lower than him but her equipment was impressive. The walked to the gate as he called out.
