.Hack//Sign: A Corrupted World
Chapter 5

Josh picked up the phone, he decided to
log back into The World, he didn't want to
play alone so he began dialing Douglas's
number. The phone rang, and rang. It rang
about five times, then finally Douglas's
mom picked up.

"Hello"

"Yes, is Douglas there?"

There was a long pause, then she replied
in a sad, depressing tone.

"He's in the hospital.."

"What why?!"

"I walked into his room, and found him
unconscious.."

"Well, thank you.."

Josh hung up the phone. He couldn't
figure out what had happened. He decided
to sleep on it. The next day phone at Josh's
house began ringing.

"Hello."

"Dude, it's me Douglas."

"Dude, what the hell happened?"

"I., went back to the area, and met that
wave master, Tsukasa that every one has
been talking about... We were in a high
level stage, and he was there alone so
I deiced to test him... then I can't
remember anything else..."

"Dude get on the game, will go hunt him
down."

"It's useless, he'll just kill us!"

"Come on man, we can always cheat."

"But that's what he's doing, I've never
seen any kind of skill where you can
summon a monster to fight."

"Well, just get on.

"Fine..."
