Haru logged in 'How come I never win contests like that!' he thought. Haru was a Wave Master, He was about six feet tall, messy brown hair and around seventeen years old. He had a black robe on over a blue tunic had a white headband. If you looked into his blue eyes you would almost say you were at the beach looking out into the water. He looked around and saw a pink haired Twinblade waving at him.
"Hey Haru, over here!" She called.
"Hey Sakura!" He called back and ran over to her, Sakura had her pink hair in a ponytail, about 16 years old, but was turning seventeen soon. She had a two piece costume, her small top, pink made of leather and her bottom was like a blue cheerleader skirt, she had long white boots that came just below her knees, her swords sheathed on each side of her waist. Haru and Sakura both look almost exaclty like they do in 'The World' as they do in the real world, except for the fact they wear normal clothes and Sakura's hair is brunette not pink.
"Haven't seen you in while, where have you been?" Sakura asked happy to see her best friend.
"On vacation." Haru answered.
"Oh well just so you know I've leveled up twice in hose three days!" Sakura gave a friendly nudge to make him jealous.
"What? I leave you for three days and you leveled up just like that?" Haru asked.
"Pretty good for not being with you, huh?" Sakura laughed.
"Wow your-!" Haru was interrupted by Shugo's cry of fear after he ran into the big muscle person.
"AHHH!" Shugo yelled and then plowed into a babe on accident. Haru and Sakura were laughing at the scene of the newbie running around in fear.
"Thats classic!" Sakura said.
"Newbies are hilarious to watch, but I wouldn't be laughing, Sakura, I remember meeting a little newbie out in a field having trouble with a monster." Haru said remembering how he met Sakura.
"Hey that was along time ago!" Sakura glumbled and looked back to the small newbie who was now with another newbie "Hey aren't they the contest winners?" Sakura didn't mean to make a large crowed with her comment, but she noticed once she asked it everyone started watching the newbie's and making commments.
"C'mon lets go, Sakura." Haru said and she walked over to him.
"Sorry, Haru I didn't mean to make such a crowd back there." Sakura said knowing Haru wasn't the best person to bring into crowds. They had met in the world, but not until after along time of being party members with each other did they met in person. They were both very suprised at how similiar they look to their characters.
"Why have I never won something like that?" Haru asked himself.
Sakura gave him a small push "Haru dont tell me you tried to enter that contest!"
"Oh really what if I did?" Haru said, but then Balmung of the Azure Sky came outof the shadows.
"Haru, Sakura we must follow those newbies." Balmung said. Balmung and Haru were good friends although they met only two months ago.
"Why..." Haru asked confused at the sudden entrance.
"When Kite first showed his appearance in the world many strange things started to happen." Balmung said "You must be there to stop some of those things, I will go to this time you stay more torward the back if anything happens something might follow it."
"Uh... Yes lord Balmung...." Haru said and followed the newbies, to the Chaos Gate avoiding suspicion though "Personally I dont really want to get wrapped up in some hero thing." He whispered to Sakura.
Sakura frowned she didn't know why Haru could change from an Optimist to a Pessimist so quickly, she didn't even know why she ever became his friend, and more importantly she didn't even know why she had a crush on him! 'Why do I like him?' She thought 'Just something about him makes me-'
"Their gowing to the newbie area come on we got to follow!" Haru said and jumped ou as the newbie dissapeared, unfortunatley he crashed into another Wave Master who had jumped out from another direction "Watch it Mireille!" Haru said.
"You watch it Haru!" Mireille stammered.
"I don't suppose you have any buisness following the newbies." Sakura said.
"As a matter ofact I do something rare is going on I just know it! How about you two?" Mireille asked.
"We were sent by Lord Balmung to follow." Haru said.
"Oh.... Hehehehe go right ahead then..." Mireille said and got ou of their way 'I'm still following though, freaks!' She thought as they warped out.
Hau and Sakura landed out in the field they saw Mireille chasing after the newbies secretly "She creeps me out." Sakura said.
"Yeah she's pretty wierd." Haru said and watched the battling newbies. The two sat there for awhile bored until thenewbies came to portsl where an armored super shogun came out "What the?!" Haru looked at Sakura she was stunned to see an armored super shogun in a newbie area.
"Do you think we should help?!"Sakura asked not noticing a large shadow creeping over her.
"No, I think we should kill this super shogun before they get overwhelmed!" Haru said whiping out his staff.
"This might be an armored super shogun, but a super shogun should not be here!" Sakura said pulling out her twin blades. She jumped up and sliced the Shogun while Haru froze it with Ice magic attacks. One of Sakura's twin blades got stuck in the shogun "Guh.. C'mon come out... uh... HARU HELP!" She screamed.
"Sakura!" Haru jumped and pulled her twin blade out he carried Sakura as the super shogun fell to it's death "Are you alright?"
"..." Sakura was speachless until a scream intterupted the touchy moment.
"C'mon" Haru said putting Sakura down and ran torward the scream. Haru saw the boy newbie on the fround and slid overto him creating dust in the air. "Sakura quick get over here!"
"What is it?!" Sakura asked.
"The kid he is dead, but he's not a ghost and hasn't disappeared!" Haru said.
"Uh... Try reviving him anyway!" Sakura said.
"Alright..." Haru said and tried reviving Shugo twice, but it didn't work "It's not working!"
"Uh... try something else like uh antidote, or restorative maybe he is paralized or something, but only looks dead." Sakura suggested.
"How does that work out?" Haru asked, but didn't get an answer he expected.
"I used to play with the old virtual pets once, they had special connecters that connected with others so you could battle, when I lost a battle my monster may have been injured. The injured sprite was the same as the sick sprite and dead sprite just with diffrent markings such as a skull, maybe thats the same for here." Sakura said.
"Alright, I will give it a try." Haru groaned, he didn't like wasting his items or SP if they might not work he tried his diffrent techniques, but they failed "Anymore ideas?"
"Try kicking him!" Sakura joked.
Haru kicked Shugo for Sakura's entertainment. Shugo flipped up and Haru snd Sakura thought it was the kick that revived him. "Wha what happened? Hmm that was my first kiss." Shugo said not noticing the horrified teenagers right by him.
"SHUGO!" Rena screamed from far away.
"Rena!" Shugo yelled and ran off without noticing Haru or Sakura.
"Sakura you don't think the kick revived him do you?" Haru asked.
"I don't think so..." Sakura said.
"Hey we should help those newbies!" Haru said.
"I will take care of it." Balmung said from behind them.
"Balmung?" Haru asked.
"I will take care of it, stay here." Balmung said and walked torwrds the trapped Blackrose mimic and the Kite mimic.
"Okay." Haru said they watched Lord Balmung slash his sword at the monster the monster healed with out using any SP "Did you see that?"
"Yeah it healed so what?" Sakura said.
"Nothere something inside of it like a virus thing." Haru said.
"Thats weird..."
Haru looked back at the fight the Kite mimic had raised his arm with a bracelet on it that Haru had never seen before he heard Shugo say Data Drain. Haru and Sakura watched in fear as the attack they had never heard of rearranged the monster's data. "What was that?" Haru asked.
"I-I don't know." Sakura answered.
Both of them left the field after the strange event. Back at Mac Anu they sat on the bridge watching the water both pondering the inccedent. Haru didn't like the feeling he had about what he saw today. "I'm going to log out okay?" He said.
"Yeah I think I will to..." Sakura said.
"Nocoming over to my house wanting to consulting what happened today alright?" Haru asked, Sakura giggled at the memory of the second time they had met in person.
"Alright" Sakura said and they both logged out.
Haru put down his headset 'It's just a game right? Glitches happen.' He thought. The mail signal clinked "Huh mail?" Haru read it
Haru, You must follow those newbie'sif they see you thats okay act like your just doing something else. This is important, as one of the dot Hackers I have seen that braclet been used before.I was not expecting it to make a sudden appearance. The situation is dangerous also if something bad happens I need you to cover it if I'm not around.
Good Luck,
Balmung.
'So what I saw wasn't a glitch it was more of a virus.' Haru thought then the phone rang "Hello Kimura residents, Haru speaking"
"Haru it's Sakura."
"Sakura I told you not to discuss the event that took place."
"I know, but I think this has something to do the thing that happened, Hiroshi's mom called apparently he fell into a coma while playing the game a couple days ago."
"Hiroshi? Didn't he watch after some of the fields and told the CC Corp. what area's needed to be fixed?"
"Yes, but it some how seems to tie in on what we saw today." Sakura said.
"Well I got a letter from Balmung, were going to watch after thosse newbie's."
"Gee thanks for asking my opinion first." Sakura said.
"Sorry it's not like I want to be involved in this eighther" Haru said.
"I wasn't directing that at you, well see you tommorow, bye"
"Bye" Haru put down the phone 'They will probably gowing to the cherry blossom event... That will be a perfect time to ask Sakura.' He thought.
"Haru time for dinner!" His mom called.
"Coming!" Haru said and ran down.
"What were you doing up there?" His mom asked.
"Were you playing that game again?" His father asked.
"Yeah, Sakura and I need to watch over a bunch a newbies." Haru laughed.
"Thats another thing we need to talk about." The father said.
"What callingto kids newbies?" Haru asked.
"No about Sakura,"
"What about her?"
"Well you to have been together a lot and I jut wanted to..."
"Is there something wrong with being friends?" Haru asked.
"Don't get deffensive..."
"I'm not getting deffensive do I look like I'm getting deffensive?"
"Just..."
"Am I getting deffensive?"
"No I'm not if I was getting deffensive I would be intterupting you and talking a lot!"
"Am I doing that?" Haru asked.
"HARU!" His mom yelled.
"Sorry I was getting deffensive again wasn't I?" Haru asked.
"About Sakura," His father continued, "If you have any questions like your first date let me know I will help."
"Oh..." Haru said 'Guess he knew.' Haru thought.
"Mia I'm not going to tell you again dinner!" Haru's Mom called.
"Sorry I was also playing that game." Haru's younger fifteeen year old sister Mia said. Mia also had a computer in her room playing the world as a wavemaster also Haru said Mia liked copying him, but deap down if he needed to go to anyone to talk to she would be the first.
"Mia." Haru leaned over when his Mom and Dad weren't listening.
"What?"
"What do girls like?"
"No really,"
"Why asking Sakura out?"
".... Yes but keep this between us..."
"Alright, Pretty stuff, cute stuff, when a guy puts his arm around her." Mia joked.
"Mia I'm serious!"
"I'm am serious we like that stuff."
"Okay, okay, cute as in... what?"
"A puppy, a kitty..."
"Okay thanks."
