Enough. I won't be told what to do and I shall run the World how I want to run it.
All I remember is thinking "I'm dead." That's all I thought of at that point. I don't know if I really was dead, but I sure felt dead.
I forced myself up. I was lying on a bed like thing, and I was all grey, like a talkie. There wasn't anyone there with me, just me, alone. The background of this area was like an opening in a forest. I wasn't sure if it was real, or just a nightmarish dream in the World.
As I looked around, I noticed colour coming back through my body. As soon as I could, I leapt up and walked around to investigate the area. Questions raced through my head: How did I get here? Why is no one else here with me? Am I really dead? Can there be no way out? Where's the Chaos Gate? I wasn't entirely sure if I could get out of this area or not.
Then I heard a voice, calling me in the distance. It was soft and silvery, like chimes or bells. I liked it, but didn't want it to stop.
"Syrah… Syrah…." It called. It was obviously a girl, but I couldn't see anyone. I tried to speak, but a hand appeared over my mouth.
"You must not speak here. It is a sacred place. Please, leave and never come back. Beware the Key."
"But…"
"Beware the Key."
Then the hand disappeared and I found my self back at the alley way, alone. I hurried out, just in case I got attacked again. The streets were as busy and I could see the girl I had met earlier bounding this way. 'Bouncing' this way… I mean bounding… or do I mean bouncing… Or do I?
"Hey! Are you alright?" Kimberly-Anne called out, waving her hand. She was so pretty. "I saw a couple of P.K.'s heading out from that way and got worried that they might have hurt you… Are you okay?" she repeated. Her concern for me made me realise what I had thought of earlier… 70-year-old grandma worry… But I decided to be nice instead of jump up and run for it.
"Listen,, I have to go find one of my friend's here, so I can give you my… Wait…" a thought triggered in my mind, seeing as how she was a higher level. "What's a P.K.?"
"I'll only tell you if you give me your member address." she said, crossing her arms under her chest.
I sighed. If only she wasn't beautiful…
"Alright, but information first." I said, getting ready to run.
"Okay. A P.K. is what we call a Player Killer. They go around, hunting other players, preferably ones who don't know what to do and how to fight back, like some one your level." She sat down on a nearby bench and motioned me to sit beside her. I did obediently hoping she wouldn't… But she did. She put her arm around my neck and pulled me close. "No one knows why they hunt other players to get stronger, not monsters, but they do. I think it's because they got attacked and had to start back from a high level, but that's what I think anyways. So… What about that member address?"
After a while, I gave it to her and aid good bye. She waved at me like I was her best friend forever. She was beautiful, but she just wasn't my type really… Maybe she could b… No. That was my answer. No. Never.
As I walked away, I tried to see the faces of the people I passed. I didn't see any familiar ones, but I didn't expect to. Then someone else jumped into my face, scaring me pretty bad.
"Hey, have you seen a person by the name of Sirah?" she said. She sounded familiar, but it never clicked until I looked into her eyes, noticing something I hadn't in a long time. But I decided to play dumb and continue to tease her.
"Umm… I think so. Is he handsome?" I said, trying not to laugh at her face when I had said it.
"Uh… I guess you could say that. But do you know where he is? I'm late to meet him and I was supposed to show him around." Her eyes grew bigger with confusion. She was so gullible.
"Look in front of you, dork." I said, laughing. She wasn't as pretty as Kimberly-Anne, but she was. She wore a bright blue halter-top , a pair of washed jean shorts and a pair of new looking sneakers. Other than her hair, she looked like she always did. Her hair was bright silver, matching her cat-like eyes that were also bright grey. Her user-name appeared as Simple, one of her many nicknames.
"Hey… Be nice… It's hard to recognize people in this game…" she said, almost hurt. She looked at me with her famous puppy-dog eyes and all I could do was sigh and smile. She knew that's how to get me to feel bad.
"You know I was just kidding. And stop that... That… 'talent' that you have going on." I said. I wasn't sure if she would stop, but she did. I sighed with relief, then walked around, hoping she would stop me, but she didn't. She walked along side.
"Have you been out to the field yet?" Simple asked, looking at all the different signs for the shops and all.
"What's a field? Is there like baseball games or football games in this game?" I asked, stupidity growing by the second. This "lingo" in the game was confusing. And I haven't even looked at the users-
"You haven't looked at the users guide yet have you?" she asked stopping in front of me.
"Well… I… uh…. Was meaning to get around to it." I said sheepishly. I defiantly didn't want to get her upset, but that's the way I was. Never liked reading, and probably never will.
"Promise me that if I show you around the field, you'll go home right after and read that guide?"
"Alright… I promise."
"All righty then! Let's head to the nearest Chaos Gate!!" Simple said, jumping in the air. She pumped her fist in the air, then began running towards the nearest Gate, dragging me along.
