Part Two: Middle Stage
CHAPTER FOUR: Coma
"Uhh.Where am I?" asked Peter.
"He's regaining consciousness. Bring in the doctor, and hurry!"
said the nurse.
In just a matter of seconds, the doors burst open. And then, a
short, chubby man with a brown mustache came in.
"Peter, 4 weeks ago, you lost consciousness and fell into a
coma. What happened?" asked the doctor.
"I don't know." replied Peter.
"Doctor Lee, you shouldn't bombard him with questions, you
know. He just woke up from a coma." said a familiar voice.
"Mom???" asked Peter.
When his mom came in, he also saw his little one year old
sister waving at him. She cooed and babbled. Peter thought she
must be happy to se me.
"Peter, but, do you remember anything at all?" asked Mom.
"I sort of, the only thing I remember was playing Fantazia with
my friends. Then I fought this monster. And the rest is a
blur." replied Peter.
"Doctor Lee, I want to speak with you in private." said Mom.
Peter's Mom and his sister went out of the room with the
doctor.
"Doctor, but really, do you think a game caused him to fall
into a coma?" asked Mom.
"Absolutely not. It is totally impossible for a game to cause
this. It was probably the heat that caused the coma." answered
the doctor.
Peter thought a lot about that day when he played Fantazia with
his friends. What is happening to him? What happened to his
friends? What was that monster? Everything was confusing.
Peter slowly got out of bed. He was slowly going to the door
where his Mom and Doctor Lee were having the conversation.
"Doctor, what happened to my friends?" asked Peter.
"You shouldn't be out of bed!" gasped Mom.
"Oh, well," said Peter
"Your friends? Dan is out of the coma. But Mike. he's still in
a coma," answered the doctor.
"Where.where's Dan's room?" asked Peter.
"He's right next to your room," replied the doctor.
Peter slinked towards Dan's room. He slowly opened the door.
"Dan, what the heck is happening to us?" asked Peter.
"I don't know.but, I'm gonna find out," said Dan.
"But, do you think the game caused this?" asked Peter.
"I'm not sure. But, maybe it did," answered Dan.
"Well anyways, I'm going to go check on Mike." said Peter.
"I'll go with you," stated Dan.
The two friends got out of the room. Dan asked where Mike's
room was. The nurse said, "It's right next to your room."
Peter and Dan went to his room. And immediately they saw Mike
on the bed with his eyes closed, and cold-sweat pouring down on
his face. Peter saw a machine that measures the heart beat of a
person. He noticed his heart beat was at 68 and then dropped
dramatically to 39. "Dan look at that machine. I noticed it was
at 68 and now dropped to 39." said Peter.
"I think he is still playing the game." replied Dan.
"Would you look at that, now his heart beat is at 75 now."
announced Peter.
"I have a theory. When Mike is in the coma playing the game,
and he gets hurt, he gets hurt here too. Meaning, if his heart
beat drops to zero, means that he just died in the game. Then,
if he dies there, he dies here too." stated Peter.
"We got to go help him." said Dan.
"I think, we should call Mike's uncle Jeff." said Peter.
"Yeah, that's a great idea." declared Dan.
Peter and Dan went to the payphone and called the ALTMIT Inc..
"Hello?" said the secretary.
"Yes, I would like to speak to Jeff Anderson." said Peter.
"Oh, we are terribly sorry. He hasn't been in his office for
quite a long time." announced the secretary.
"That's okay." And then Peter hung up the phone. "They said
Jeff wasn't in his office for a long time." announced Peter.
Peter and Dan said bye to each other. Dan told Peter "I'm going
to stay with Mike for a while. And why don't you try to find
out what's happenin' to us."
Peter replied, "OK".
Peter told his Mom he can manage to walk home by himself. Peter
walked down the main street and into a narrow alley way. Peter
would take this route home because it was a shortcut for Peter.
Then Peter saw a shady looking figure. He was leaning on a
wall. Peter ignored him. "So Peter, do you want to know why you
passed out and went into a coma?" asked the man in a deep
voice.
"How do you know my name and how do you know I fell into a
coma?" asked Peter.
"Oh, I see you're interested. If you can trust me, go to 9102
Mulberry Drive. Be there at 12:00pm. And don't be late by even
a single minute. And one more thing, come alone," said the man.
Peter started to walk and suddenly he turned around and he saw
that the man was already gone. He disappeared mysteriously.
Peter thought to himself, "How does that guy know all these
things? How does he know my name? How does he know about the
game? And how does he know about the coma?"
Peter had so many questions going through his head. He did not
understand anything that was happening to him. Everything was
just too confusing. Peter finally arrived at his house. He
opened the door and went to the living room and lied down on
the couch. He thought, "What the heck is going on?" After a
couple of minutes, Peter decided to go to 9102 Mulberry Drive.
He needed to know more about Fantazia. Peter grew tired and
fell asleep.
CHAPTER FIVE: Beta The Tormentor
In his dream Peter saw himself as Zeke and then he saw a
familiar monster. It was Beta! "Ha! Ha! Ha! Zeke, there is one
law of nature, and that is, the strong will live and the weak
will die. I am one of the strong. The weak are just nutrition
for the strong. The strong kill the weak so they can get the
vitamins and minerals. The weak have only one purpose and that
is to be food for the strong. Zeke remember this, the strong
will live and the weak will die." stated Beta.
"But, is being weak that bad?" said Zeke.
"Zeke, you too have no point of living. You are just nutrition
for the strong. I will one day, defeat you and you're friends.
But not now, you are not worthy of even challenging the weakest
being on earth," announced Beta.
"Let me see how good you are. I could bet you can not even
survive a minute fighting me. You humans are so pathetic." he
said.
Beta drew out his sword. It was a thick, broad, sword. Zeke
prepared to fight and held up his staff. Zeke charged at him at
full speed. "You are such a fool." said Beta.
Beta swung his sword at Zeke.
Peter abruptly woke up. He was panting as if he ran a mile.
Sweat was pouring down on his face. He thought to himself,
"That dream, it seemed so real. Or maybe it is real."
"Peter, I'm home!" said Mom.
"Hello!" said my sister in a sweet gentle voice
"Oh, hi mom and Cecilia," replied Peter.
"RIIIING!!!"
Peter went to the phone and picked it up. "Hello?"
"Yo, Peter, yeah, Mike's still in a coma. I just left from the
hospital. I think he's doing okay." said Dan.
"Dude, I got to tell you something," whispered Peter.
Peter walked into his room and shut the door. "Okay, I saw this
shady guy in that shortcut I always use. He says he knows about
the game and why we passed out and went into a coma. He wanted
me to meet at 9102 Mulberry Drive." said Peter.
"Isn't Mulberry Drive at the other side of town?" asked Dan.
"Yeah, it is. But do you think I should trust this guy?" asked
Peter.
"I would take the risk to find out," replied Dan.
"Yeah, well, anyways, see ya later," said Peter.
And then he hung up the phone. "Peter, who was that?" yelled
Mom.
"Oh, it was Dan." replied Peter.
Time flied quickly. At 9:30, Peter's Mom and Cecilia went to
bed. Peter sat on the couch and turned on the T.V. "This is a
special report from Japan. Six kids in that single country fell
into a coma. They were found unconscious by a computer playing
a game. Expert doctors say they might have passed out from the
heat. Further details are unknown. Now we will return to our
normally scheduled T.V. programs," said the reporter.
"This thing is getting serious," said Peter.
Peter watched some cartoons until 11:50. Then he sneaked out of
his house and went to the garage. He took out his motor scooter
and rode on it. "Wow, the town looks so different at night,"
said Peter.
The town of Carlstadt was so dark. Only the street lights could
guide him through the night. Peter rode on his motor scooter
for some minutes when he arrived in Mulberry Drive. Peter said
to himself "Okay, 9100, alright, 9102."
Peter went to the door and knocked. Someone opened the door.
"Come in quickly." he whispered.
CHAPTER SIX: The Shady Character Revealed
Peter went inside the door and followed the tall man to a room
with a computer and the same controller and virtual reality
helmets that Mike gave him. "Alright, sorry I couldn't
introduce my-self before. I couldn't risk my self being seen.
My name is Jeff Anderson. You probably already know me,"
announced Jeff.
"But, I want to know something, why did you quit working at
C.C.B. Corporation?" asked Peter.
"The people who worked there were all jerks. The new manager is
such a no good, lousy, stinkin' jerk who-" Peter cut him off.
"Okay, I want to know who this specific character is. He calls
himself Beta," said Peter.
"Never heard of him," replied Jeff.
"Oh, that's okay," said Peter.
"The reason I wanted to have you here is, so you can help my
nephew Mike break out of his coma. And Peter, I have a favor to
ask you, call your friend Dan and tell him to log on to
Fantazia. We'll need all the help we can get," stated Jeff.
Peter dialed the phone number, 201-635-9305. "Hello?" said Dan
sleepily.
"Hey, I'm here at Jeff's house. And he has a favor to ask you.
Please log on to Fantazia now. See ya," said Peter.
Peter hung up the phone.
"Man, why does he always do this? He never fills me in on what
the heck is happening, oh well," said Dan.
"Dan's going to log into Fantazia now," announced Peter.
"Good," replied Jeff.
Peter and Jeff both logged in. Peter then had that same
sensation when he first entered the world of Fantazia. He now
appeared as Zeke. He saw Jeff's character. He had long blue
hair and a red shirt. He had baggy pants. Jeff's character
carried a spear. "So, you must be a long arm," said Zeke.
"Yup, call me Zen," said Jeff.
"Okay do you even know where we can find Mike's character?"
asked Zeke.
"No, I don't know, any who, let's check out the town for
information. If you find anything, instant message me,"
announced Zen.
"Alright," replied Zeke.
Zeke went to different stands to ask the people if they had
seen a character with spiky blonde hair and a crimson red
jacket. Many people answered "No, I never seen such a person."
But Zeke never gave up. He still continued to ask many people.
Then he came up to this shop. The sign read, 'Potions'. Zeke
went inside. There he saw an old lady with a purple shawl
wrapped around her. Zeke asked, "Have you ever seen a character
with spiky blonde hair, and he wore a crimson red jacket?"
The old hag replied, "That jerk stole a potion from my store,
but before he could get away, the Ravens caught him and took
him to Meridale's jail."
Zeke said thank you and left the store. He instant messaged
Zen. He said, "I got some info about Mike's character. I'm
standing in front of a potions shop."
Then Zeke flash mailed Nova. "Nova, it's me Zeke. Come to the
potions store. And hurry!" said Zeke.
After a couple of seconds Zen showed up and then Nova.
"Tell, me what's goin' on here. You never fill me in with the
info." gabbed Nova.
"Well, we're trying to free Ace from a prison, end of story.
Now wasn't that a good story?" asked Zen.
"So what information do you have?" asked Zen.
"Well, I found out that Ace stole a potion from a store and he
was caught by the Ravens and then, he was taken to Meridale's
jail.
"Okay, Jeff, who in the world are Ravens?" asked Nova.
"They are the administrators of the game," answered Zen.
"We got to go help him! You'll never know what they will do!"
yelled Zeke.
"Well, we can't even help him if we don't know the pass code to
Meridale." said Nova.
"That's where I come in. Since I worked at ALTMIT Inc., I know
the pass code to Meridale," announced Zen.
"Ok, that's great, let's go to the Portal!" exclaimed Zeke.
The three, went to the Portal. And Zen yelled, "Sparkling Terra
City!"
CHAPTER SEVEN: Sora, The White Phantom
And then instantly, the three appeared in a big, noisy city
with lots of commotion going on. "Wow! This place is like New
York City!" said Zeke in great awe.
"Yeah, first we got to go to the Palace of Rah to get
permission to visit the jail," said Zen.
"Okay, then, let's get goin'," declared Nova.
The trio headed down the main road and they kept going down the
main road until they saw the Palace of Rah. The palace was a
glimmering gold and it shined like the sun's blaze. They saw a
kid about four feet tall. He had a white kimono like a
samurai's. He also carried a long sword. "Get out of our way,
kid. We have to see the king or queen of this place," said
Nova.
"First of all, I am not a kid, second of all, you outsiders may
not see the princess. Get past me and maybe, just maybe, I'll
let you through," stated the kid.
"You're really starting to tick me off," said Nova.
Nova drew his swords. The kid seemed to be chuckling. "Okay, if
you want to get hurt be that way," he chuckled.
He drew his sword and went into a fighting stance. "Do we let
him fight the guy?" whispered Zeke.
"Oh, let him, I want to see some action," said Zen.
"No one ever dares to fight the White Phantom," hollered the
kid.
"You'll soon find out why I'm called that," said he.
The kid charged at Nova like lightning speed. Nova didn't even
see it coming. The kid landed a punch on Nova's ribs. He
screamed in pain. "You little punk," said Nova weakly.
"Tiger Claw!" yelled Nova.
Zeke had never seen Nova use this technique before. Nova bolted
to the 'White Phantom' and used his swords at lightning speed.
He started to spin his sword like a top. Zeke could see the kid
dodging everything. Now Zeke knew why he was called the White
Phantom, because he moves like a ghost. "You're too slow!"
yelled the kid.
He yelled, "Synthos!"
"Nova, watch out! He just raised his attack power!" yelled Zen.
"Dual Edge!" yelled Nova.
Nova's swords had a shiny rainbow color to it now. He ran to
the kid and he did a strong thrust. Quickly, the kid grabbed
the tip of the blades. "No, that's impossible!" exclaimed Nova.
"Oh Nova, anything is possible in Fantazia," said the kid.
With his other free hand the kid grabbed Nova's head. "What's
that smell?" asked Zeke.
"Nova, get out of there! It's gun powder!" yelled Zen.
"Flaming Knives!" said he.
His sword lit on fire. Then he scratched the tip of its fiery
blade on his gauntlet. All of the sudden, there was a minor
explosion. It was a critical hit! When the smoke cleared, Zeke
saw Nova on the ground. He had many bruises and lots of
scratches on his skin and face. Nova groaned in pain.
The kid raised his sword and then he said, "Now, let's finish
this once and for-"
"Stop it!"
CHAPTER EIGHT: Princess Fiona
Zeke saw a girl in an aqua blue dress. She seemed to be only
about 14 years of age. But Zeke couldn't tell. She had bluish
hair. And she carried a mid-sized axe.
"Oh hello, Princess Fiona," said the kid nervously.
"Go inside the palace now, Sora," said Fiona.
"Yes, your highness," replied Sora.
"Oh, I am terribly sorry for Sora. He doesn't trust strangers a lot."
"Yes, your highness-"
"Just call me Fiona," she interrupted. "Yes Fiona, we were here if we can visit the city jail to see a friend of
ours," said Zen.
"Of course you can," replied Fiona.
"Thank you your high- I mean, thank you Fiona," said Zen.
Fiona chuckled. "Cure!" yelled Fiona.
And then Nova was instantly cured.
"Thank you Fiona," said Nova.
CHAPTER NINE: Servant Of Lord Beta The three walked to the city jail. They went down a narrow stair case to
get to the underground prison. There he saw a giant armored knight with
mace in his hands. "We would like the freedom of a prisoner named Ace,"
said Zen. "No, one gets out of this jail. But, I've hadn't had any fun in ages. If
you beat me I'll give freedom to your pitiful friend. But, if you lose,
you'll become my servants for eternity!" yelled the knight.
"This is the only chance we'll get of freeing Ace," said Nova.
"We have no other choice," said Zen.
The three all drew there weapons.
CHAPTER FOUR: Coma
"Uhh.Where am I?" asked Peter.
"He's regaining consciousness. Bring in the doctor, and hurry!"
said the nurse.
In just a matter of seconds, the doors burst open. And then, a
short, chubby man with a brown mustache came in.
"Peter, 4 weeks ago, you lost consciousness and fell into a
coma. What happened?" asked the doctor.
"I don't know." replied Peter.
"Doctor Lee, you shouldn't bombard him with questions, you
know. He just woke up from a coma." said a familiar voice.
"Mom???" asked Peter.
When his mom came in, he also saw his little one year old

must be happy to se me.
"Peter, but, do you remember anything at all?" asked Mom.
"I sort of, the only thing I remember was playing Fantazia with

the pass code to Meridale," announced Zen.
"Ok, that's great, let's go to the Portal!" exclaimed Zeke.
The three, went to the Portal. And Zen yelled, "Sparkling Terra
City!"
CHAPTER SEVEN: Sora, The White Phantom
And then instantly, the three appeared in a big, noisy city
with lots of commotion going on. "Wow! This place is like New
York City!" said Zeke in great awe.
"Yeah, first we got to go to the Palace of Rah to get
permission to visit the jail," said Zen.
"Okay, then, let's get goin'," declared Nova.
The trio headed down the main road and they kept going down the
main road until they saw the Palace of Rah. The palace was a
glimmering gold and it shined like the sun's blaze. They saw a
kid about four feet tall. He had a white kimono like a
samurai's. He also carried a long sword. "Get out of our way,
kid. We have to see the king or queen of this place," said
Nova.
"First of all, I am not a kid, second of all, you outsiders may
not see the princess. Get past me and maybe, just maybe, I'll
let you through," stated the kid.
"You're really starting to tick me off," said Nova.
Nova drew his swords. The kid seemed to be chuckling. "Okay, if
you want to get hurt be that way," he chuckled.
He drew his sword and went into a fighting stance. "Do we let
him fight the guy?" whispered Zeke.
"Oh, let him, I want to see some action," said Zen.
"No one ever dares to fight the White Phantom," hollered the
kid.
"You'll soon find out why I'm called that," said he.
The kid charged at Nova like lightning speed. Nova didn't even
see it coming. The kid landed a punch on Nova's ribs. He
screamed in pain. "You little punk," said Nova weakly.
"Tiger Claw!" yelled Nova.
Zeke had never seen Nova use this technique before. Nova bolted
to the 'White Phantom' and used his swords at lightning speed.
He started to spin his sword like a top. Zeke could see the kid
dodging everything. Now Zeke knew why he was called the White
Phantom, because he moves like a ghost. "You're too slow!"
yelled the kid.
He yelled, "Synthos!"
"Nova, watch out! He just raised his attack power!" yelled Zen.
"Dual Edge!" yelled Nova.
Nova's swords had a shiny rainbow color to it now. He ran to
the kid and he did a strong thrust. Quickly, the kid grabbed
the tip of the blades. "No, that's impossible!" exclaimed Nova.
"Oh Nova, anything is possible in Fantazia," said the kid.
With his other free hand the kid grabbed Nova's head. "What's
that smell?" asked Zeke.
"Nova, get out of there! It's gun powder!" yelled Zen.
"Flaming Knives!" said he.
His sword lit on fire. Then he scratched the tip of its fiery
blade on his gauntlet. All of the sudden, there was a minor
explosion. It was a critical hit! When the smoke cleared, Zeke
saw Nova on the ground. He had many bruises and lots of
scratches on his skin and face. Nova groaned in pain.
The kid raised his sword and then he said, "Now, let's finish
this once and for-"
"Stop it!"
CHAPTER EIGHT: Princess Fiona
Zeke saw a girl in an aqua blue dress. She seemed to be only
about 14 years of age. But Zeke couldn't tell. She had bluish
hair. And she carried a mid-sized axe.
"Oh hello, Princess Fiona," said the kid nervously.
"Go inside the palace now, Sora," said Fiona.
"Yes, your highness," replied Sora.
"Oh, I am terribly sorry for Sora. He doesn't trust strangers a lot."
"Yes, your highness-"
"Just call me Fiona," she interrupted. "Yes Fiona, we were here if we can visit the city jail to see a friend of
ours," said Zen.
"Of course you can," replied Fiona.
"Thank you your high- I mean, thank you Fiona," said Zen.
Fiona chuckled. "Cure!" yelled Fiona.
And then Nova was instantly cured.
"Thank you Fiona," said Nova.
CHAPTER NINE: Servant Of Lord Beta The three walked to the city jail. They went down a narrow stair case to
get to the underground prison. There he saw a giant armored knight with
mace in his hands. "We would like the freedom of a prisoner named Ace,"
said Zen. "No, one gets out of this jail. But, I've hadn't had any fun in ages. If
you beat me I'll give freedom to your pitiful friend. But, if you lose,
you'll become my servants for eternity!" yelled the knight.
"This is the only chance we'll get of freeing Ace," said Nova.
"We have no other choice," said Zen.
The three all drew there weapons.
