CHAPTER 3: LINK START

Roy didn't know why he bought the game but he did. When he got home he hid the game in his pocket, hiding it from his mother. As he was going to his room he saw his mother, Amy Flint, standing in the hall. "Hey mom," Roy greeted. She had the same eye color Roy has and dark brown hair. "Where were you after school young man," she asked in a stern voice. "Oh uh-" Amy then saw something in Roys pocket. "Whats in the pocket there?"

'Crap,' he thought. "Well... Ok I was at a... Video game store and-" "Did you buy a game," she said in a surprised tone in her voice. "Yes." He pulled out the game and showed it to her. "Is it safe?" "Mom you remember Alfheim Online and did it have the same problem?" True ALO ran on the same engine but you can log off at any time. Amy then had a soft smile and said, "Ok you can play it," then she looked serious, "But you can play at 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Got it?" Roy nodded in fright.

Amy smiled and said, "Good now go ahead and lay your game," Roy was about to leave, "after dinner. And for dinner is pork roast and green beans." He had a disgust face. "And. You. Will. Eat. The. Beans." Truth to be told Roy hated green beans.

At the dinner table Roy ate his pork roast. But not the green beans. he had a plan. He put all the beans on his plate and asked his mom if could go to the bathroom. "Sure just be quick ok." He nodded and ran to bathroom and puked the beans out of his mouth and flushed the toilet.

After dinner he was in his room. He put the disk in and the NerveGear on. He layed on his bed and closed his eyes. "LINK START!"

He found himself in a character creator room. So he made his RPG character and his user's name was Flare. 'Hun and I can't change it ether.' Now he had to pick a starter pokemon. So he picked Charmander, a fire type. A bright light then appeared. 'Looks like my journey begins.'
