I but one person. I also have no money, so don't sue me. I'm not marketing
this work, but writing it only for my own enjoyment as well as that of
others.

Ziege had had to log out, eventually, leaving Itsuko alone and thoroughly confused. She had waited the whole night for him to return. Finally, in the wee hours of Mac Anu's morning, her youthful friend appeared at the Chaos Gate.
"How long have you been here?"
"The whole night. Why?"
"Mm."
"Why does everyone say that?!"
"Not everyone. It's just my habit."
"I heard a shopkeeper say it already, and now you, and soon I'll probably being 'mm'ing all over the place!"
"Calm down! You seriously got no sleep at all? That might explain your mood."
"I have a question," Itsuko growled through gritted teeth, managing to glower at him fiercely. "What IS this place?"
"The World."
"A bit more specific, if you please."
"It's called the World. It's a computer game."
"NANI?" A game? How was she in a game? First time-travel, now going into computers. This is INSANE.
"Hai, a game. You didn't kn- Oh, yeah.. I forgot."
It was a computer game. That might explain why people were appearing at these strange portals call Chaos Gates and others were running around with weapons and some even killing each other. She had thought it barbarian, when she saw it, and had hidden in an alley.
Ziege and Itsuko headed worked their way through the slowly- thickening crowds, talking amiably, now off the subject of the World. Soon they returned to it, and conversational tones dropped to a more serious note.
"What if I'm stuck here forever? What if I can never log out? What then?"
"I.. don't know. I can't figure it out."
"..I wish I did."
"Let's suspend such talk until a time that requires it. Do you want to go hunting?"
"What do you mean?"
"Do you want to go fight monsters?"
"I guess.. Sure. I'd love to."
"Alright, follow me!"
They warped to Soft Beautiful Melody, and Ziege opened a portal. They prepared to fight.
A/N: More short chapters! Gomen nasai. I'm bad at writing for a long time. If you have any suggestions as to wear the plot will turn, please give your comments! I'm very open to suggestions. As in, I probably won't be able to continue the story without them. Ack! Eheh. Oh, if you wish to see a picture of Ziege, go to . I think he's pretty cute. Don't you? Oh, and one last thing. Yes, Itsuko DOES have a weapon. She had it to begin with. She just didn't notice it because it wasn't equipped then.
