After school, they got up to Watts' residents. Wade explained that his aunt will be working late at the Applewood grille, which gives them enough time to go into the Oasis, get the keys, and figure out the strange behavior. Rocket came along to rig the goggles, just so they wouldn't get stuck in The Oasis.

At the races, they saw a female gunther with short pink hair and pink skin. Her name was, "Art3mis". Parzival told Padleia that she's a racing champion. "Now we have competition," Donna said.

"Alright, Racers" Anorok announced, "and remember, always look back."

As they started the race, Emma accidentally put the car in reverse. Instead of crashing, they uncovered a secret passageway. Cerebro suddenly realized what he meant by, "Always Look Back" "That's it," he said, "When he said, "Always Look Back, he must mean, "You must look at the race through a different angle."

Parzival, Aech, Serenadia, Cerebro, Padleia, and Art3mis, follow Hawk through the secret passageway and did the race backward. In the end, Parzival, Aech, and Art3mis made it through the finish line and received the copper key, meaning illusions.

Anorok explained that when he was a child, he had a hard time socializing with others. He spent most of his time playing games and reading comic books. "Now you must wait for the other 2 winners and find the jade key together."

"Can we come with him too?" Padleia asked.

"Because he just moved to Rosewood and he needs some REAL friends," Emma explained.

"Of course," Anorok replied.

"Alright Z" Aech shouted, "You did it!"

Still, Parzival was wondering why did Art3mis followed them, "I have reasons." At3mis replied.

"Art" Parzival blushed "I'm wondering if you would go on a date with me."

Art3mis smiled and nodded her head. "Club Kira at 7 pm"

As she left, Aech took him to the side and said, "Are you crazy, He might be a 300 pound man who lives in his mother's basement in Detroit."

"What," they all asked in confusion.

"And her name is Chuck," Aech replied.

"I don't know." Parzival replied, "Art3mis sounds female to me."

"So does Aech," Cerebro whispered to Serenadia.

Later at the Radical Rumpus Teens Lounge. Myra, Luis, Emma, and Donna were hanging out when they got word on the news that 2 more winners have joined the High 5. They were Daito and Shou. They showed the footage of Daito getting the honors, the samurai way, while Shou came in while driving recklessly.

"That's gotta hurt," Cerebro whispered

"Does he have a driver's licesnse?" Padleia asked.

Nolan went into the game under his Avatar "Lacero". Lacero had the form of a gangster, black hair, and a big chin. He was with his Sixers crew and told them to fan out and find Parzival, Art3mis, Aech, Daito, and Shou. A few of them stayed to Lacero for backup.

Meanwhile, at Planet Club, Parzival was dressed sharp. In the club, he saw Art3mis wearing a red dress. They had drinks and danced to the song, "Stayin Alive" by the Bee Gees. This cause everyone in the Oasis to dance.

Wade was so much in love, he accidentally gave away his real name. Art3mis didn't mine, she liked in.

At a club booth, Lacero and his Sixers were spying on them, "Wade Watts." Lacero whispered evilly, "Okay Sixers, get the prize winner!"

Art3mis was shocked in horror when she saw Lacero, "I have to go." Art3mis said as she ran off.

Parizival was confused by what she was talking about. Just then, Sixer held him hostage and made his avater appear as a hologram at IOI. "Wade Watts" Nolan said as he removed his goggles, "The name is, "Nolan Sorrento" CEO of Innovative Online Industries"

"I know who you are," Parzival replied, "You were Halliday's coffee boy until you resign for unknown reasons."

"The reason why is that I want revenge." "I told them that we can use the Oasis for war and personal gain, but he refused. In the meantime, you can give us the location of the key. In return, will offer you 5 million dollars a year. Think of the monthly fees and abundant advertisements."

"No!" Parzival shouted, "The Oasis is for everyone to share and there's no price in freedom."

Parzival logged out.

Meanwhile in the human world, a girl with shoulder length red hair, covering an eye. She looked at 3 ninjas and said, "Go find them quick."
