DISCLAIMER: I don't own .hack. But hopefully, I will someday. SOMEDAY!!

Glitches. They suck, right? Yeah.. Isn't it annoying when you're on an Oekaki board and you're

drawing the most beautiful picture ever, which has taken you hours, and then BOOM! Right

when you're about to finish, you get that little error message, "This program needs to shut

down." and you've lost your picture! Well, a glitch like this happened in the computers of the

C.C Corporation, the people who made "The World" online game. This glitch caused the servers

to be down for quite a long while. Very misfortunate for all the people who were playing when

the glitch happened and didn't save recently, who lost all the items, money and experience they

had gained after their last save. When the error was finally fixed and the servers were back up,

everyone was happy. Except for a few people who gathered around the Wavemaster boy who had

been laying on the ground in Mac Anu by the Chaos Gate, seemingly asleep. They gaped at his

odd weapon, wondering what kind of event the boy had gotten it from. They poked and prodded

at the reddish staff until the boy woke up. He opened one eye and saw all the people crowded

around him. Then, he opened the other eye, sat up, and spoke.

"Who are you people!? Get the hell away from me!" The boy's eyes widened as he thought, 'I

spoke..' The bunches of people started to throw questions at him.

"Who are you?"

"Where did you get your staff?"

"Can I have your member address?"

The boy stood up, wondering why no one was running from him. He slowly backed away, then

turned and ran from the mob of people. He stopped at the river and turned his head to look

behind him. The people were following him. He sighed, then looked down at the river. "..Aw,

what the heck." He jumped into the river, making a large splash. The mob of people ran up to the

river, looking around for the boy, but soon gave up, lost interest and walked off. The boy's head

came up from under the water. His messy black hair was dripping wet and his long, red dress-like

outfit was soaked. He heard someone, a girl's voice, calling out to him from above.

"Hey! Hey, you in the river! Are you okay?"

The boy blinked. "...God?" He said to himself as he looked up to see the face of a girl with short

blue hair. She reached down. "Grab my hand. I'll pull you out." She told him. The boy did as she

said and was lifted out of the water and onto the boat she was riding. The boy spit some river

water out of his mouth and the girl giggled. "I saw you jump into the river. Were you being

chased by those people who were lined up by the edge of the water?" The boy nodded and the

girl continued. "Oh, how rude of me, I forgot to introduce myself! My name is Subaru. And

behind me is Silver Knight." She pointed behind her at a strange man wearing a horned mask

thing. Silver Knight glanced at the boy's staff and immediately got on the boy's case. "Where did

you get that weapon!? I've seen nothing like it! I sense some illegal editing here!" Subaru put her

finger to her mouth, signaling Silver Knight to be quiet. She turned back around to the boy.

"Well, are you going to tell me your name?" The boy looked a little uneasy. "My name?" He

asked. "It's..." Subaru blinked. "Go on." she said. The boy continued.

"It's....Skeith."
