(A/N)

I know I didn't OFFICIALLY introduce the Negatives in the last chapter, but they'll be introduced here, I hope.

"Urgh, the noobs have a new noob on their side... someone named Mainiac... holding a bright sword," Kenji muttered, to the Black Knight in front of them. Just yesterday, this Black Knight had come personally from the Black Knights' Fortress to Lumbridge to persuade Kenji and his friend Grim to join his clan, the Negatives. They all had a similar goal, and that was to destroy you-know-who and his own group...

Pain glowered at Kenji. "You're unreliable. You actually got owned by a couple o' noobs. Hmph. We need to get new recruits who hate the... you-know-who... and will do anything to kill him. Maybe someone who truly hates him, like I said, or just a random guy on the streets who wants to be evil. Now, Grim, I am sending you to recruit some people around Lumbridge, Draynor, Port Sarim and Falador."

"Yes sir," Grim said readily. "Report back in the evening tomorrow," he commanded, and Grim headed off. "As for you, Kenji..." Pain turned his attention towards Kenji. "I want to send you to assasinate this new friend of Benjamin. The sword he has... I want it. It is as powerful as the Destruction Blade Benjamin wields, did you know that? Silverlight, it is called. Kenji, surely you have no problem for a simple fool who's level is even poorer than Benjamin. Right?" Pain glared daggers at Kenji, who nodded quickly. "Good. Bring me Silverlight... and his head."

"Hyaaa!" I swung my Destruction Blade towards Mainiac, and Silverlight clanged against it. We were training in an empty field. Nearby was a strong-looking man selling cooked meat and chicken. The Destruction Blade and Silverlight was evenly matched, I realised. Where did Mainiac find this powerful sword?

After taking a break, I went up to the man and bought three cooked meat. I offered Mainiac some, but he said he wasn't hungry. Surprisingly, the man sold beers too. I bought two glasses of beer and offered one to Mainiac. He accepted it gratefully, and gulped the beer down. I did the same, and chomped on the meat. It was delicious. I gave an extra tip to the meat seller and walked back towards Lumbridge, with Mainiac following.

"Could you give me some money?" a cute little girl asked, as she ran up to us. She must have been about six years of age, and she looked at us eagerly. I softened, and gave her about 5K, which she gladly accepted. "Oh my god! This is so much money!" the girl said in delight. I looked at Mainiac. He had a serious look on his face, and then he took out a sum of coins from his backpack. "Here... 34Kgp, it's all I have..."

"Wow! Thank you big brother!" the girl said, and I gawped at Mainiac. He actually donated all of his savings! This kid was something else!

We found out that the girl's name was Natalie, an orphan who got by eating leftovers from the trash can. I offered Natalie some cooked meat, which she quickly accepted, and ate hungrily. Mainiac then whispered something in my ear. "Hey, Benjamin? Could you give this kid a big feast? I'll pay you back..."

"Huh? Is she related to you or something?"

"No... I just have this... urge... to help the needy..." Mainiac smiled. "Please."

I nodded, smiling, and treated Natalie to a mouthwatering buffet at the Lumbridge Restaurant for 10Kgp. After saying goodbye to Natalie, we walked off to meet up with Alex, Jay and Tangelano, who had gone exploring in the Lumbridge Swamp. Just then, my instincts told me, no... begged me to turned around. I did, and neatly dodged as Kenji tried to stab me ruthlessly with his weapon.

"Kenji... why do you always have to show up?" I sighed sarcastically, but I knew I was at a disadvantage. Last time, Alex, Tangelano, Jay and Mainiac was with me. Now only Mainiac and I was facing this... guy. Before I could react, Kenji shoved me away rudely and dragged Mainiac away by the collar.

"Let go of him, you freak!" I pounced on Kenji and elbowed him hard, hard enough to get him to release his grip on Mainiac. "Eat my Destruction Blade!" I yelled, and slashed his new armor with my Destruction Blade, making it shatter. Again. Then I did the same stunt we did almost everytime we met him, I snatched his helmet and slammed him in the head with it. Kenji looked like he was about to faint, until he pulled out a Dragon Battleaxe. I saw that the battleaxe was a sickly green, and realised it was poisoned.

"Mainiac! Don't get touched, or hit, by his weapon! It's poisoned!" I called, and Mainiac nodded. "Too late!" Kenji swung his weapon at Mainiac, who managed to hold his shield up to block it. The Poisoned Dragon Battleaxe, however, managed to shatter the shield into pieces, and slashed Mainiac hard. Blood spilled from his left cheek. I covered my ears as Mainiac yelled a very, very, very, very, very loud "ouch". The latter collapsed, clutching his cheek. He was sweating.

"Damn!" I cursed, and dodged as Kenji swung his weapon at me. "Hmph. I have to keep my head on the job, not on killing you first. So, time to end this." Kenji stopped attacking me and brought up his battleaxe. I realised what he was going to do. He was going to chop off Mainiac's head. Swiftly, I knocked Kenji back. "No one's touching my friend!" I yelled. "No one!" I drove my Destruction Blade into him, making him collapse. "Urgh... That... Destruction... Blade... is proving a... nusciance..." Kenji disappeared, and in his spot stood a Poisoned Dragon Battleaxe, which I took. I could sell this for a lot at the Grand Exchange.

"Return that!" roared a nasty voice, and Kenji came bounding towards us. "Oh dammit. Run!" I yelled. Mainiac didn't look fit to run though. He was struggling against the poison, which required a lot of his energy. Kenji snarled, knocked me away, and took out his Corrupted Blurite Sword, about to slay Mainiac. However, I ran at him and twisted the sword out of his hands. To my surprise, I could wield it, but I kept it away in my backpack. "You fool! You've stolen two of my weapons already!" Kenji yelled.

That was when fireworks appeared around me and my Runescape Book flew out of my backpack. "Congratulations, you have advanced to Thieving Level 2," was the words on the Stats page. I kept the book, and jumped at Kenji, who had brandished his new weapon, a Poisoned Rune Warhammer. I twisted that out of his hands too, and kept it. Laughing at him, I pranced around as Kenji growled and took out another weapon, a Poisoned Mithril Dagger. I kicked the weapon out of his hands and stole the dagger too. Fireworks appeared around me. I had rose to Thieving Level 3. I laughed at Kenji, who was out of weapons. I then took his helmet and knocked him in the head with it. Again. He was dazed for a few moments but finally snapped to reality when I tossed his helmet into the river.

"Nooo! My helmet!!" Kenji yelled, and rushed towards the river, and watched as his helmet floated away. I crept behind him silently and smirked, before kicking him in the ass. Kenji yelled, and flew into the sea. The Level 108 screamed as he was dragged away by the current. I snickered at him the whole time as he then fell down a waterfall. I heard a loud scream before nothing. Kenji must have drowned and returned to Lumbridge. I stuffed a few cooked meat into Mainiac's mouth, healing him. The poison effect was still there, though, but Mainiac had enough strength to walk. I lead him away into the Lumbridge Swamp, laughing like anything.
