A/N: oh no, how can I be so blind?!?! I'm sorry for not noticing the review by silent//warrior. Ahhh, gomen…gomen nasai. (sorry)

I'll try my best to make it longer. But for chapters 7-9 it might still be the usual length as we have already written it and are just editing them now. But still I'll try to make it longer.

Once again, sorry for not noticing your review…~_^" must be getting old nowadays. Sigh.

Now get on to the chapter!

"I must say, that girl is weird. I have never seen her character before."

Ryna was lying on her bed on her back. One arm was behind her head acting as a pillow and the other was in front of her eyes. She was staring at her wrist where the bracelet was purposed to be in The World as she recalled what had happened earlier.

//This is your destiny, Ryna. But you can quit if you want, that is if you don't want to save her…//

"I wonder what she means…" Ryna asked herself as she turned around and rested her chin on her arms. She was thinking about all the possibilities. A few moments of silence went by as she thought. Suddenly, she jumped up, throwing her arms into the air in frustration. She just could not find the meaning.

"Arghh…I'll just go back in and hopefully could see her again!" deciding on that, she went over to her computer. She had not log out completely from The World since she came back. Wearing her headgear she set off.

Lights swirled around her and her clothes changed. A few seconds later, she was standing in front of the Chaos Gate. The bracelet was dimming on her wrist but no one seemed to have noticed it. She searched herself and discovered that she had used up her healings during her last battle.

"I'm sure the creatures in the area I went last time aren't going to spare me," she told herself. She walked to the item shop and purchased more than enough healings just in case she met a situation as last time with the two Menhirs. She shivered at the thought; she had died, no, nearly died if not for the girl's help. After purchasing enough, she walked back to the Chaos Gate. She stopped suddenly at the stairs to the Chaos Gate. There, standing in front of the Chaos Gate, was a female wavemaster.

'Solo?' that was the first thought that went through Ryna's mind. A little happiness came to her; she had not seen the other girl for so long. She ran towards the girl but was stopped when she was two meters away from the girl. Someone was standing between her and the female wavemaster. She looked up and met violet eyes.

Eilathen had brought her to town. What for? Solo do not know, she had been drifting in her thought for so long that she could hardly recall who she was anymore. She looked questionably at Eilathen. It was so easy to trust the aloof stranger, Solo thought. Yet, she was getting more comfortable being with him with each passing minute.

She found that Eilathen's eyes were not on her, instead he was glaring at a female blademaster. Solo looked over her guardian shoulder and saw Ryna 's familiar face, beaming with irritation.

" Ryna!"

Ryna smiled brightly at Solo. " Solo … I… Hey! Can you get out of my way!" Glaring angrily at the unknown player, Ryna attempted to push past him. Like a brick wall, Eilathen stood there, a barrier between the two friends.

Shocked by her guardian hostile actions, Solo said softly. " Eilathen… she is my friend. "

" Come on, Solo let's go. We have better things to do than be here with this girl."

"Hey! Damn you, what do you mean by that! Solo, how did you meet up with this jerk anyway?"

Ryna 's cyan eyes met Eilathen 's violet.

Breaking the static passing through them, Eilathen took a step back coolly, and draped his arms around Solo shoulder. Missing the blush creeping up from Solo neck, Eilathen sniggered. "Why don't you try to reach her?" With that, Eilathen threw a dart at Ryna 's feet and warped himself and his charge off the field.

" Why you…" Shaking with anger, Ryna stared at spot where they had disappeared. She was about to stomp off when she felt a slight vibration at her feet.

The Dart. Ryna and the other players nearby watched with astonishment as the dart transformed into a dumbbell-like creature…
