Deep In The World

-------------------------------------------------------------Chapter 1------------------------------------------------------------

A young wave master with blue hair and red eyes was walking around in the Delta Server root town Mac Anu. He seemed to be looking for someone desperately but with no prevail. As he headed for the warp gate he saw some others' near there, two blade masters, one more in red the other in blue. He walked up to them slowly the bottom of his staff dragging across the ground. "Uhh…ummm….Excuse me…do you have any….aromatic grass?" the two blade masters looked at him and smirked "Yeah we do.. But it'll cost ya!" the blue blade master laughed at his friends comment. "Uh…How….much?" Elk didn't know why he asked he knew it was just going to be an over priced item. "Hmmm…1 rare item for blade masters AND 10000 gold" they smirked and Elk looked at the ground. "Th…thanks anyways…." he turned and walked away from the laughing blade masters. He walked to the alleyway where no one met and sat on one of the crates there. He was going to log off soon since Mia wasn't on anyways. Just as he was about to someone walked into the back of the alley where he was. "Here" the boy that had walked into the alley held out a piece of aromatic grass. He had light beige hair and brownish eyes. "thank you! But…are you… sure I can have this?" the young wave master nodded. Suddenly Elk realized how much the boy looked like him. As elk accepted the aromatic grass he asked the boy a question. "Ummm… You kind of look…like…" "You? I noticed the same.. Truth be told there were rumors about you and I had to see if they were true." "R…Rumors? About me?" Elk looked at the ground sadly. He had a lot of rumors spread about him in the real world and well… …they weren't usually nice. "Not those kind. Oh, well see you later I have to meet someone somewhere. Bye!" the other wave master turned and walked out of the alley. "I…I forgot to ask his name…Oh I have homework!" with that elk logged out of the world.

In real life a young seventh grade boy had just walked out of his house after finishing homework. He was staring at the ground thinking about his encounter with the wave master in brown. He sighed as he walked past some people from his school. They were one who had pretended to be his friend at one point. "Hey! Have you heard about the little boy who had no friends!" The boy ignored the comment as he turned and running back to his house. As he reached there he logged back into the world. He checked his e-mail and searched the message boards for a message from Mia but found none. Finally he actually logged into a server. There was on place he hadn't looked yet.

Elk warp gated from the Delta Server to an area called 'Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground' . Kite had said he might find Mia there weeks ago. There was surprisingly no monsters there, but a church. Elk slowly walked into the church and looked around. "Umm Mia…are you…here?" he asked the empty room. He heard no reply and walked down the aisle. "Anyone?" he suddenly fell to his knees in an isle of the benches. He cried, in real life and the world since they had updated the world so you could express more motion sucks as crying blushing ect.. Another wave master entered the church. He noticed Aura was still not there then suddenly heard someone crying. He walked to where he heard it coming from and saw the blue wave master from earlier. "Hey… is anything wrong?" Tsukasa blinked and kneeled down in front of elk. Elk looked up at him surprised and hurried and tried to wipe is tears away. With his sleeve "N…nothing ..Is wrong." "I may have been in here for a while… …But I cant tell when something's wrong." "It's…Nothing re…really. I don't usually tell people what's wrong if anything is…Umm…By the way what's your name?" "Tsukasa yours?" "I…I'm Elk. Nice to meet you…Do you mind if I ask…what did you mean You've been here a while?" "Well…You see I can't log out." Elk blinked. "I don't know why" Tsukasa replied seeing the expression on elks face. "Oh. .sorry to hear that. But I bet you have a lot of friends here! Right?" Tsukasa shrugged "I do but ever since they started this thing called school they've been busy with homework. "Oh…I don't like school much… … I was supposed to go today but…" elks looked at the ground sadly. "Oh well… Umm… I don't have many friends at all so… Would you… Like to be my friend?" Tsukasa smiled and nodded. He knew that he and the young wave master would be good friends. "Sure! I'm sure we'll be great friends" Elks and Tsukasa then started talking about their hobbies.

Kite and Blackrose were walking around in Mac Anu. "Do you think Elk is alright? Mia hasn't been on for a while." Black rose smiled. "I'm sure he's okay, he's been fine every other time. Except when he want into a server dungeon and almost died because he was looking for her…Hey! isn't that Elk now?" Blackrose pointed to two wave masters in the alley talking about school. "He's found a new friend it seems. It must be the one that the people on the message boards are talking about." Blackrose and Kite walked up to them. Tsukasa saw them and blinked. One of them reminded him of Mimiru. Elk saw Tsukasa staring at someone and turned around to look. "Hello Kite…Hello Blackrose" "Hey Elk! We were worried about 'cha! Where have you been?" Blackrose smiled at him and Tsukasa. "I've…been talking with…my new friend." "Aw the one of the message boards…Nice to meet you I'm Kite and that's Blackrose. "Hmm…" Blackrose was now examining Tsukasa. "You look like Elk! The rumors were true after all. And!! I hope you don't plan on making TO close of a friend with Elk!!!" "Blackrose…please stop…" Elks cheeks were tinged with pink and Blackrose smirked. She realized elk obviously liked Tsukasa a little because of the look he had in his eyes, despite the fact it was a virtual world they could still get that look in their eyes. The she remembered Mia and how Elk liked her. As if on cue Elk gasped as a cat player appeared behind Blackrose and Kite. "Mia!!" Tsukasa blinked 'is that…Maha?' He thought in his head. Mia looked at both of then and smirked "Hello. Nice to see you both again." Elk blinked up at Mia. Did she know Tsukasa? "Hey Elk… Is this the player you were telling me about?" Elk nodded. "Why?" Kite and Blackrose decided to leave. "She just seems familiar"

----Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground ----

Mia had gone with the two wave masters to the church. She watched as they talked about stuff and smirked. She knew Tsukasa from when she herself was Maha. All of a sudden something hit her. How long has elk been online talking to Tsukasa "Elk! How long have you known Tsukasa?" Elk blinked and looked over at Mia. "A few days…why?" Mia smirked, "No reason." "Oh…my mom needs me to get off…" Tsukasa sighed "okay…I'll see you later" Elk smiled and nodded as he logged off. Tsukasa all of a sudden looked at Mia. "Yes… Tsukasa I am Maha." Tsukasa smiled "Nice to see you again Maha. It's been a long time" Mia nodded and walked over to Tsukasa. "You like him don't you?" Tsukasa nodded. "You do too?" Mia smirked "You're smart. Let's just see who he prefers. Well I'm going to go see ya!" with that Mia walked out of the church and left the area, Leaving Tsukasa alone in the church.
