Life is a game for love- Chapter ten: Funny Missions aren't always funny
When we got to Tenten's I Begged her to work on homework first. I wasn't ready to face Arlys, or Uziel. Arlys probably hated me for not saying anything, But how was I suppose to know who was stalking me!
"There!" Tenten yelled throwing all her books onto the floor. "I finished my homework! Now can we play! I know you don't want to face Arlys, But I have your back if anything goes wrong!" Tenten winked. I couldn't help but smile. Tenten always had my back, and I knew that, she knew that! But me, being the stubborn person I am try to do everything on my own.
"Yeah. We can go, and Ten. Thanks!" She smiled and tossed me my helmet. Yes, I brought it to school. But I thought about it, and Tenten was most likely going to ask me to come over and play. Always come prepared!
I put the helmet over my pink hair. A flash of light and I stood there in Uniha City. Azure beside me. "Alright! So where to first!" She grinned. I shrugged my shoulders.
Azure and I after ten or so minutes trying to decide where to go started walking around the city. It was a really nice city! Flowers and trees were planted in front of almost every building! All kinds too. Each building had a flower box filled with all kinds of different flowers. I wish home was like this place.
"Hey Salacia. Are you up for a mission?" Azure asked stopping in front of the mission center. I looked around. There wasn't a big line. "Yeah! That'd be great!" Azure didn't move though.
"Oh my gosh! I can't believe how dumb I am! We have to go to the code center first!" She grabbed my hand and bolted down the street.
The code center was packed with people. However none of them were entering codes. They were watching other enter codes. You see the weapon add on Azure and I got after school is new. Brand new! It only came out today. So you know, People have to buy it right.
"Hi!" Azure smiled at the lady at the desk. The lady smiled back. They started talking. I ignored the conversation. I decided to look around instead. My eyes scanned the area. You wouldn't believe how many people played VL until you entered the game. Millions of people were crowded around the code center. All of different species and elements. You could hear all kinds of laughter and langue's around you. It was so amazing! It was fun until he came into the room.
Everyone went silent. All you heard was Azure asking why the room went so quiet. She turned around facing the man who had just entered.
He was tall. He wore a long jacket, black. It had a collar too that covered the man's mouth. On his jacket it had ropes and belts kind of like Arlys's. His jacket was long sleeved and he wore black gloves over his hands. He wore a pair of very dark gray pants and dark brown boots that went to just under his knees. His head was covered with a hat. A witch's hat? That's what it looked like. Also black. His whole face was covered in shadows. All but his eyes. Red. And Piercing.
He didn't speak. He walked up to the counter and looked down at Azure. He was only an inch taller than her. She glared up at him.
"Just who do you think you are? I'm pretty sure I was here before you so wait in line!" Her glare didn't leave. The man didn't move either.
"Excuse me...I'm talking to you!" Azure shook her head. "Well if you're not going to answer me, I'll just ignore you too. I just want to put in my codes so I can go on a mission with my friend. Okay?" Still no answer.
"Whatever." Azure turned around facing the lady at the desk whose face was as still as could be. She was scared. Why?
"Okay. So I have this last code to enter." Azure ignored everything and placed her code on the table. The lady slowly came back taking the code and entering it on her computer. "Here you are." The lady said handing Azure a small box. "This will give you access to your new weapons." The lady talked slow, she was looking at the man from the corner of her eye. It was like she was waiting for him to do something to Azure.
"Thanks!" Azure smiled and turned around walking over to me. The man followed her movements with his eyes.
"Hey sorry it took so long!" Azure smiled at me. I nodded. "Let's get out of here." Azure walked towards the door. I followed, slowly. I watched the man's gaze and he watched me. For a split moment our eyes met. I had a spine chilling feeling when that happened. Then I ran after Azure.
Once outside I met up with Azure who was walking towards the mission center. I stopped. She turned around and looked at me.
"What's wrong?" She asked. I looked up. My hands hurt. I don't know why, but they did a lot. She pointed to them.
"Salacia, What happened!" She ran towards me grabbing my hands and uncurling them. My hands were bleeding because I dug my nails into them.
"Oh...Wow. I didn't notice that." I gave a fake laugh. She gave a questioning look. "Well, let's go get a mission!" She grabbed my wrist and pulled me to the mission center.
The mission center was almost empty. There were about eleven people in total. Not counting the programmed characters that work here. If you'd call it that.
Azure and I waited in a line. Two people were in front of us. Both guys. They were frog like creatures. The first one was short and his...skin was a red color. The other was slightly taller and his skin was yellow. They both had huge eyes, like a frog does, and their hands were webbed. It was pretty cool, and creepy.
After they left, Azure and I walked up to the board. Only a few missions were posted. And they all sounded lame. The first one was save a phillie-horse, which isn't a horse. It's a cat like creature that has no tail and wings. The next one was collect up all the flowers in some lady's yard. Not normal flowers either, ones that talk. They are annoying! The last mission was...Wait where did it go?
"This one sounds good!" I turned my head to the left. There stood a girl with long blonde hair tied into a pony tail. She wore a light blue dress which ended just under her knees. Over top she had a dress like coat. It had skinny straps and tied in two places. It was also blue however darker. On her head she had wolf ears. White. Also she had a wolf tail which matched her ears. Her eyes, which were blue, looked like an ocean. She smiled holding the mission paper she had just taken off the board.
"Okay so we'll do this one!" She smiled gladly at a boy who was standing a few inches away from her.
I looked at Azure, who had small fire's starting in her eyes.
"Excuse Me But we were here first and we were going to take that mission." Azure said with hints of anger in her voice. Great she's going to start something.
The girl looked over at her and smiled. It wasn't sweet, more like menacing. "I'm sorry, How about I make it up to you and let you take something that you won't get hurt on. I wouldn't want you to damage anymore brain cells." She smirked. Azure looked at her stupidly. I stepped in front of her.
"Forget it, we'll pick something else." Azure ignored me and shot a glare at the wolf girl. She glared back.
"Alright. When glares are shot I have to step in so it doesn't get ugly." The boy stepped in front of the wolf girl facing me. He wore a white dress shirt with a black blazer over top, unbuttoned. He had a red tie around his neck; however it was tied very loose. He wore black dress pants. His hair which was a very dark brown was spiked and messy thrown into a pony tail. His eyes also brown looked tired.
"Enki Stay out of this!" The wolf girl yelled. Enki ignored her. "Sorry, yeah you were here first, so take the request. We don't want to cause any trouble. Rashmi." He turned to the wolf girl whose name was Rashmi. She pouted and handed him the paper. He took it and held it out to me.
I hesitated. "Thanks...but..." I looked over at Rashmi, she looked upset maybe...Then I looked at Azure who was pouting. "How about we go on this mission together?" I smiled. Enki smiled too.
"That'd be great."
"Salacia and Azure...Nice to meet you both. I'm Enki and this is Rashmi." Enki, Rashmi, Azure and I walked down a dirt path headed towards coco city for our mission.
Okay so in case you're wondering, Azure and I just met Enki and Rashmi at the mission center. Rashmi and Azure wanted the same mission as Azure so I decided to be the smart one and ask if we all wanted to go together. Enki liked the idea and here we are now.
"It's nice to meet you too." I smiled. Azure and Rashmi yawned.
"This is boring. Why do we have to walk anyways? I think there should be some kind of transportation that takes you from city to city." Rashmi whined. Enki sighed. "Ignore her, she complains a lot."
"Then why are you two together?" Azure asked. Enki laughed.
"Because we make the perfect couple! In many ways. So back off!" Rashmi answered for Enki. Azure looked at Enki in a 'are you serious' look. He shrugged. "We grew up together, outside of the game of course. Also we've been dating for two years now so..." Rashmi shook her head proudly as Enki spoke.
"How...cute." Azure winked at me. I had to hold in a laugh.
We arrived in coco city and went straight to where our client was waiting for us.
"Hello, hello. Welcome!" A man with bushy purple hair came up to us. "Are you here to help me with my problem?" He asked looking at all of us with his big yellow eyes.
"Um...would you be Mr. Mister?" I asked stepping forward slightly. He grinned. "Why yes! Yes I am!" Azure stepped forward standing next to me. "Then yes we're here to help you with...your problem."
"Great!" Mr. Mister rolled his eyes did a strange dance and started walking away. Enki told us we should follow him. So we did.
"That was one HELL of a mission!" Azure yelled as we all walked out of coco city.
"Agreed!" Rashmi groaned. I sighed too.
Our mission was to help this man named Mr. Mister Do whatever he needed for five hours straight! It sounded easy at the time, until we reached coco city and Mr. Mister showed us what he wanted help with. Let's just say I don't think any of us are going to want to do any kind of house work for a long while. We cooked, cleaned, milked cows, goats even sheep! Don't ask how! But it wasn't fun!
The four of us walked back to Uniha city to get something to eat as a reward. On the way however, Rashmi decided to show us a 'short cut' which wasn't short! And now...We're lost!
"How in the world did you get us lost!" Azure yelled throwing her hands all over the place. Rashmi glared at her.
"Fine Next time you come up with a short cut! I was only trying to help!"
Enki stopped walking and so did the rest of us. "What is it Enki?" I asked quietly.
"Listen..."
I heard the wind blow, and laughter? I looked up at Enki who had his eyes closed. What was he doing?
"He's listening through the ground. His element's earth so he uses his power to listen to things through the ground. Pretty neat right." Rashmi winked. I nodded. That was pretty cool...
"What's happening?" Azure asked leaning on me.
"I'm not really sure...Wait...Something about destruction on Uniha city..." Azure Jumped. "WHAT!" Enki grabbed her and flew into the bush. Rashmi and I followed.
"Keep Quiet! They might hear you!"
Azure nodded. "Sorry..."
I sighed and moved some leaves out of the way. I looked around the forest we were in. It was getting dark so it was hard to see what was going on. Then Rashmi moved next to me. She moved leaves and was looking out too.
"It's too dark to see anything very well..." I said. She snickered. "Leave it to me." I looked over at her and her eyes light up. It was like she had little fireflies in her eyes.
"I'm a light element player." I looked at her amazed. Azure rolled her eyes. Enki leaned closer to Rashmi and I. "What do you see?" He asked. Rashmi looked out of the bush.
"Tree's, bushes...and...A light!" Enki nodded. His breath was warm against my neck. He was a little close, but it was okay...I guess. Oh my gosh I felt my face heat slightly. 'Stop Sakura!' I mentally slapped myself.
"The light is moving closer, I think it's the people who were talking earlier..." Rashmi trailed off. Azure decided to join our little clomp in the bush and leaned on me. She rested her hands on my head.
"So...Do we wait here for them to leave or spring into action?" She tried to lighten the mood. Nobody laughed. She sighed and rested her head on her hands which were still on my head.
Whoever was outside of the bush was getting closer because I could hear voices. One was husky, and the other was a little pitched.
"When do we attack?" The husky voice asked. The pitched one laughed.
"Not yet, but very soon. First we have to get rid of him, and then Uniha city will be free for the taking!"
The husky voice laughed. "Well master, I'll put things in their place and then our little Elf boy won't have a chance!" More laughter came from both. It got fainter, and fainter which meant they were walking away.
"Did you hear that!" Azure whisper-yelled. I nodded. Enki had a disgusted face. "Whoever they are they are planning on taking over Uniha City..."
"Wait, they can't do that...Can they?" Rashmi had a worried face. I looked at Enki with hope in my eyes. He looked away. "I'm not sure..."
Azure made a strange noise. "Um Hello! Earth to people! We have to do something! We can't just stand here! We have to tell someone, or do something ourselves!" She made a point. We all nodded and ran back to Uniha City. It took us a while to get back because of Rashmi's 'Short cut' but we made it back. Finally.
Uniha City is beautiful at night...It's lit with different colour lights and it just looks amazing! Like a festival back home...But I don't have time to admire how it looks because we were on a mission...of a different sort that is...
Enki, Rashmi, Azure and I ran past several people, shops, and whatever else. We don't know where we were going to go...but we had to find someone to tell them about what we heard...
"Excuse me?" I stopped running and looked down at a little man who was smiling at me. "I was wondering if you and your team would be interested in entering Uniha City's first tournament." The man pointed to me and the others. I looked back at them. They had also stopped with questioning looks on their faces.
"Um...We'd love to but we're..." I never got to finish because the little man interpreted me. "Perfect! All of you come this way!" He took my wrist and pulled me away. I looked back at Azure who told the others they should follow...
The man dragged me into a small building that only looked small on the outside. On the inside it was Huge! A stadium was in the center of the 'house'. All around it there were seats, like at a hockey arena or something. The place was packed with people. The man walked me over to a desk where a lady with dark pink curly hair stood. She smiled.
"Welcome to Uniha City's first ever tournament! Would you be joining today?" The lady smiled again. The little man answered her.
"Yes I have here a team of four." Right then, Azure, Enki and Rashmi walked in. "Ah here they all are." The man let me go and pointed to all of us.
"The lady turned to a computer on her desk and started typing. "Team Name? And Elements please..."
The man looked over at use. "Name and elements..." Enki spoke first. "Team..." Azure broke in. "Team Dragon Spark!" The lady typed some more. "Elements?"
Azure spoke again. "Fire, Water, Earth and Light." She pointed at each of use when she said our element. More typing...
"Perfect! You're now entered! You may go into the participant's room and get ready. When you will be up is posted on tonight's schedule which is also in the room." The lady smiled. Azure smiled at her and pushed us towards the participant's room.
"What are you doing? We have to tell someone about the attack thing!" Rashmi Yelled at Azure who rolled her eyes.
"Yes, we do but why not have some fun first? This is the reason I bought this game so I want to at least join one tournament before Uniha City gets...'attacked'." She used air quotes when she said attacked because she doesn't believe someone would really attack Uniha city. She said while we were running back that it could just be some kind of sick game. 'A lot of people do things like that all the time...' Were her exact words...
I wasn't sure what to think...One thing I wanted to know though...When they said Elf... Did they mean Uziel?
Yep another Cliffy! I end most of mine like that don't I? haha..Also My titles for each chapter Suck..I know they donT' match very feel, but a little right? Whatever...
Okay Not now but soon I'm thinking of Making a chapter in someone else's Point of View...Oh my gosh1 I got it..haha but i'm not telling yet! XP sorry.. :)
