(A/N)

Nothing to say. So I'll just skip this Author's Note. All I have to say is… I'm gonna create either a Runescape story or a Teen Titans story. But I guess you Maple fanatics won't really care that much. Still, if you think it should be a Runescape story, it's gonna be on adventure. Teen Titans story is going to be on romance. So please help me choose either by reviewing one of my stories. Thx. Because I don't know how to set up a poll. As usual, Ben's POV.

As we exited the party quest and caught sight of a lousy party consisting of three Level 21s and one Level 23, my PM Phone rang.

I answered it.

"Hi. Meet me. It's really important." flashed a message on the screen.

"Wat? Hu r u?" I typed back.

"Jus cm." was the reply.

I shrugged and urged Mimi to look at the screen. I typed back, "whr meet? Wat u look like?"

"You'll find me in Perion." was the simple reply. Then the mysterious caller hung up.

"You see that?" Mimi's eyes sparkled. "We're going on an adventure!"

"Not exactly. What if this is a trap?" I muttered.

"We'll just tell Eve and Joe to come along." answered Mimi with a you-are-such-a-scaredy-cat face.

She dialed them on her PM Phone and they appeared within minutes.

"What's the scoop?" Eve asked excitedly.

"We'll tell you in the cab." Mimi grinned as she strode to the cab casually.

We got in. When I was about to toss the driver some mesos, the driver turned it's back and glared at me. We gulped. It was Crimson Balrog!

It sniffed at us and flew out of the cab. We cringed as glass shattered. We looked up to see Crimson Balrog towering over our heads.

"Quick, where's the page?" Joe flipped quickly to the page titled 'Monsters Lv90-100'.

"Here's all we have to know about… gah!!" Joe shrieked as Crimson Balrog blasted burning hot fire straight at Joe. Joe fell out of the cab and was unconscious.

"Shit. He has 0 HP left." Mimi murmured.

Crimson Balrog snickered. We got out of the cab quickly as Crimson Balrog blasted flames at the cab. It was burned to a crisp!

"Quick, to the Construction Site!" I yelled as I lead the other two to the portal.

"No! Not there! Didn't you forget monsters can't enter portals?!" Mimi yelled at me.

"Eh? Oh yeah. I forgot." I answered, feeling silly as I dodged a cruel burning blast from Crimson Balrog.

"What the hell is a Crimson Balrog doing here, anyway?" Mimi wondered. "They only invade flying ships traveling to Orbis from Ellinia and back."

I shuddered. Why do all ships have to get invaded? Octopuses had invaded our ship too when we were traveling to Victoria Island. Why, oh, why did monsters have to terrorize us? Why can't we live happily together? Well, that's one question the monsters should answer.

I dodged quickly as Crimson Balrog blasted flames at me.

"Let's see. Crimson Balrog's attacks are Fire Blast, Cold Nova, and Wing Strike." Eve read out from her book.

Crimson Balrog smirked as he heard his attacks being read out and chanted a strange chant. Suddenly, two bolts of ice shot at my wrists and I hit the wall. As I tried to jump out, I felt myself being pulled back. I shrieked in terror when I realized I was chained by a handcuff made of ice. I was being chained to the wall.

"Heeeeeeelppp!!" I screamed in fright as Crimson Balrog prepared to fried me with his Fire Blast like what he did to Joe. "Take that, rog! Magic Claw!" Mimi cast her spell and attacked the Crimson Balrog. It looked angered and began chasing Mimi.

"Agilty is not Mimi's strong point." Eve said, as she threw a Tobi star at my cuffs. It broke immediately.

"Thanks, Ms. Accurate." I joked.

Eve gave me a face as she jumped forward to distract the Crimson Balrog.

Mimi was getting tired. "Holy Arrow!" she yelled as she attacked.

Crimson Balrog was hit back, but it was still little damage. It chanted words again, and Mimi's feet and hands were chained… to the ground!

"Oh no you don't!" Eve whistled as she jumped onto the Crimson Balrog. Yes, I said onto.

"Look what big ears you have!" Eve smirked, fiddling with Crimson Balrog's ears. Crimson Balrog growled and tried to swipe her away. Instead, Eve jumped up into the air. She jumped up so high I thought she could already kiss the Sun!

She landed again on Crimson Balrog's head. "A gift from me, my little cheese pie." Eve had a cheeky grin plastered on her face as she stabbed a Tobi star into the Crimson Balrog's head and jumped away quickly as Crimson Balrog tried to struggle to take off the Tobi star.

Eve was giggling and chuckling all the way. I shook my head. I couldn't believe she was enjoying this!

As Crimson Balrog managed to take the Tobi out, blood gushed out from it's head. It looked at the blood and gave a monstrous growl at Eve. It tried to crush Eve but she was way too quick and landed on Crimson Balrog's arm.

Crimson Balrog tried to punch her off it's arm, but Eve used Dark Sight and she became invisible and no physical attack could do damage to her. I swore I heard a laugh coming from the Crimson Balrog's arm.

"Here's your change!" said the invisible Eve as she used Disorder on Crimson Balrog. We heard her jump away. We stared at Crimson Balrog. It seemed to be losing memory. It stared at us back, growled, then flew away. We heaved a sigh of relief as Eve turned visible again.

Joe was revived. We also felt a little stronger. Our book began glowing and we knew what had happened. We had leveled up! Except for Joe, of course.

Ben Lv 34

Mimi Lv 33

Joe Lv 30

Eve Lv 31

"I can't believe we actually came face to face with a Crimson Balrog in Level 30." Eve scratched her chin.

"Someone activated them." Mimi replied.

"How did you know?" Eve asked.

Mimi said nothing. She whipped out a Maple Book and pointed to her Int. At the same time, she added her stats. Int 4 and Luk 1.

"Well, who activated them?" I asked.

"Someone in Perion. That's all I know." Mimi replied with a serious look on her face.

"Let's go, team. Time to get serious." I muttered as we rushed over to the real cab to get to Perion.
