I hurt myself again! (actually hurting myself seems to be a daily occurrence, so I wont go into the horrible details…) Anyways that's why I've been slow to write, also ever heard of writer's block, or losing the will to write? …somehow right now I'm lonely.

Misaki's POV

As I kicked the chest open, a brilliant light burst forth. The next thing I knew I was being tackled to the ground with a "Buu!"

"What the heck!" I shouted blindly at the boys "I thought you said it wouldn't be a trap!"

"It's not, it's a…"

"Bluu!" I managed to right myself and get whatever had tackled me to release its grip on me and fall to the ground.

"What are you?" I asked staring at its cute blue pig-cow like appearance

"Hey, that's rude!" it said offended "first you kick me, then you fling to me the ground and if that wasn't enough you stare at me and ask what I am! Isn't it obvious? I'm a Grunty"

"Come again? A what?" I asked

"I'M A GRUNTY" it shouted

"What were you doing inside a chest?" asked Wiseman

"Well…" it trailed off

"You got stuck… didn't you?" Commented Tasuku with a sly grin

"I did not! A grunty like me would never get stuck!" said the flustered grunty.

'ahh… so he did get stuck…'

"Soo because you were in the chest, and I don't think you want to fight us… does this mean we get to keep you?" I asked

"Do I look like a pet to you?" It snapped

"Yes" we all replied, it sighed in frustration and defeat

"Fine then"

"Okay Blue, make sure you don't fall behind." I told him

"Blue?" it said questioningly "of all the names you could have named me, you name me blue?" there was a slight twitch of anger in his face, great just what I needed, an anger management pet…

"Well you are the colour blue, so it makes sense." I told him

"Whatever" It said, from there on we got to the entrance in relative silence.

The plan is in motion. It will not be long before everything falls into place.

"Soo… do we actually have to go in there?" asked Blue

"Well, yeah, it's a dungeon, you kind of have to go in there to clear the area, and get the treasure and stuff" I told him,

"A-alright then, if you say so…" he stammered back

"And onward we go!" shouted Tasuku

"Try and hurry, I just remembered I have a school thing I need to go to." Wiseman said

"And so I enter my first dungeon!" I cheer quietly to myself as to not arouse suspicion.

The dungeon turned out to be pretty easy, with all of us there. I had my Wave master skills for the occasional healing and my Heavy Blade for attacking with the others, soon it was cleared, and we all returned to the Theta server in which we had started out at.

Soon after arriving, Wiseman said something about signing out and doing something at school, and then left. Not long after and Tasuku said that he was going to log out too, because it was getting late, I nodded and told him okay. Then it was just me and my Grunty…

"Are you going to dump me in a Grunty farm and leave me alone for nearly the rest of my life now?" Asked Blue

"What the hell are you talking about? You're my companion and you're staying with me." I told him, scooping him up into my arms before he could get any funny ideas.

"…I'm hungry" was all he said, relaxing into my hold. My stomach rumbled a little too and I realized that I was also hungry.

"Let's go get some food then eh?" he gave me what I was sure was a smile.

There wasn't much for food here, considering that it was a town, there should have been at least one food place, but I couldn't find anything. The one thing somewhat close to food was some sort of grunty feed, but whatever that was looked barely passable for Grunty food, let alone for a human to eat. I went up to a random person.

"Excuse me, but where can I buy food here?" I asked. The person gave me an odd look of surprise and suspicion before answering.

"You don't buy food here, if you need to feed your grunty, then just leave him at the grunty farm or, buy some grunty food."

"But, don't we need to eat?" I asked

"What are you talking about? Just eat at home before you sign in, if you're going to get so hungry."

"Uhh… yeah, okay then, thanks" I told her before walking away.

I had no idea what she was talking about, for all I knew, this was my home. And I sure as hell didn't see anything resembling a snack anywhere here. I kept walking and I soon left town, there was a dungeon-ish area of sorts, and then I ran into another town, this one was more like a city, it was called Mac٠Anu, or so a small wooden sign said.

Once more there was no real source of food. I sighed and sat down on a bench, when it struck me.

"My bag!" I said suddenly, startling Blue

"What about your bag?" he asked me, I grinned

"My bag is loaded with stuff, I'm sure there's some sort of food inside!" I quickly pulled out my bag and rummaged through it. Inside I found several different drinks, and snacks, as well as some decent meals.

"Thank you God!" I cried out at the discovery of food. Me and Blue ate until we were full, and then put the rest away.

Now for a place to sleep, somehow I got the feeling that people often didn't sleep within here. So I would have to find some sort of secluded place if I wanted any rest.

Things are falling into place? If anything, your plan seems even more flawed. Lucky for you though, it is entertaining. So for now I will not stop your fun. But I do expect to see some progress. Make that happen soon, or else, you know what will happen.

In the end I had found a quiet grove on the top of a hill that overlooked the town. We had set up a camp there, and nestled down for the night, waiting to see what tomorrow would bring.

Yeah, I'm sorry it's awfully short… and it's probably a pretty awful story… I went on a hike a couple days ago in Lynn Valley. A few minutes ago I finished a great book, it was called 'Fate' by Jennifer Lynn Barnes, it was really awesome! …Okay shutting up and sleeping now! buh-bye!
