A/N Prior to the high demand for chapter 5 I decided to postpone the next chapter of I'm Just a Kid and post this chappy of Ragna Rockers instead so Torrance here ya go! Yep It's me again and here's the next chappy so please do enjoy...
Chapter V- The Chosen 8; A new ally
So there we were just Help Me, easy gurl, and I trekking the vast Prontera Forest. We earlier found out that experience drop was modified and raised to 50 times it's original value. Therefore, one Porings death was equal to a level up... for each of us. Yes, we formed a party and shared experience evenly. You could imagine the fate of any unsuspecting Poring or Fabre that crossed our path...
Who would have thought simply walking through Prontera forest could be so hard? All three travelers have already grown tired of eradicating the Porings and Fabres that lived in the forest and were anxious to get to Morroc.
"Tell me Help Me are we anywhere close to Sograt dessert yet?" Raen decided to start a conversation to forget her boredom.
"Nope, we still have to cross the river to get to the farther part of the forest then we have to keep walking till we see nothing but sand..."
Just then a tiny pink Poring jumped out of the bushes right in front of the trio who earlier, slaughtered so many of it's kind. Something was different about this one though as Raen felt. This caused her to stop easy gurl from throwing a rock at it.
"Raen! The GMs told us to level up as mush as we can!"
"Wait easy gurl! We need to save one of them for me to get a pet don't we?"
Raen immediately searched the rucksack she bought in Prontera city for the shiny green apple she acquired earlier. After confirming she did not lose it on the way, she set it down on the ground a few inches in front of herself and the little Poring.
The Poring definitely smelled something fishy but, as all Porings are greedy, it would never let its favorite food be left on the ground without it munching on the snack.
As the Poring ate the unripe apple, an object resembling a slot machine popped up over its pink body. Two possibilities were on it. Success and Failure. Halfway through its crunchy meal the Poring seemed oblivious to the slot machine over itself.
The machine began moving faster and faster till the words on it were merely red and green blurs. Now Raen wasn't completely left out the mechanics of owning a pet and called out the he slot machine to stop.
Finally slowing down the machine seemed to take forever to deliver it's result.
FAILURE
SUCCESS
FAILURE
Just as Raen was about to give up all hopes of ever owning a pet the slot machine tilted one last time and...
SUCCESS!
The Poring, now finished with it's meal, jumped into Raen's arms and turned into an egg of a blue with a visible orb floating within.
"Well Raen, I'm happy you can now experience the joys of owning a ragna pet." HelpMe congratulated his friend.
The acolyte to be lovingly stared at the egg a little longer before keeping it in her rucksack, the trio then continued their walking through the forest.
Somewhere in Morroc city
Another young acolyte to be, Phoenix, just talked to mother Mathilda by some ruins in Morroc dessert. She was now ready to head back to Prontera and all she needed now was a Kafra to warp her there.
Unlike Raen, Phoenix had stunningly brown hair and captivating azure eyes. Her delicate white face was hidden behind a mask for an unknown reason. (Just for fun maybe )
Phoenix was searching for the Kafra in Morroc city so she could complete her acolyte job quest.
Kafra's POV
The Kafra of Morroc city was know to be quite hot tempered and mean to all her costumers.
Joi sat next to sat next to one of the guards standing by the city's entrance while filing her nails. A handsome looking novice came walking up to her. He was wearing a smiley mask and had his long brown hair tied into a neat ponytail behind him.
"Umm excuse me miss Kafra?" Immediately Joi stood up to attend to the "hot" guy who was addressing her.
"Call me Joi! What can I do for you?"
The Kafra put on her sweetest smile to make the novice like her.
Phoenix's POV
Phoenix didn't like the way the Kafra was smiling at her but she continued to act friendly anyway. She took off her mask to see the person she was talking to better. This gesture was met with a gasp from the other and suddenly the smile on the Kafra's face was gone.
Kafra's POV
/A GIRL?!!!/
"Hi I'm Phoenix one of the eight players in this game testing? I was gonna ask if I could get warped to Prontera please?
The Kafra flipped her hair over her shoulder and started filing her nails again then, turned back and began walking away...
"Sorry Warping service is closed, go walk there yourself..."
/Twerp.../
Phoenix's POV
The Kafra turned her back on me and mumbled something I cannot comprehend.
"Well I guess that means I'm stuck in Morroc city till I find someone to warp me to Prontera."
/That is unless I walk the whole of sograt dessert back.../
Phoenix shuddered at the thought. No way was she gonna walk all the way back, she suffered enough looking for Mother Mathilda. So, Phoenix found the one and only Inn of Morroc city and decided to spend the night there...
Sograt Dessert
"HelpMe please tell me we're almost there..."
Poor Raen and easy gurl were now trailing a few steps behind their leader who seemed unmoved by either fatigue or hunger.
"Easy gurl please tell me you bought some food before we left Prontera." Raen couldn't take all the hunger anymore (Yes you can get hungry in the V.R. game... )
The other female nodded and produced three paper bags from her (or his ) own bag and handed two to her companions.
The paper bags contained meats. These things did little to appease the rumbling of Raen's stomach but at least they had something to eat.
"Easy gurl, how long has it been since we've last seen some plants?" HelpMe was determined to lead the trio to Morroc city by sun set.
"I'm pretty sure the last shade of green I saw was about 3 hours ago. Sand is everywhere! Why care about plants now HelpMe?"
The sky was painted a bright orange now and light was soon fading. The trio caught a glimpse of pillars and at the sight of civilization, Raen ran ahead...
A/N Yup! That's the next chappy so Torrance get off my back! R&R peepz and Rok on!
