Allison/Narrator:: uh.yeah.new chapter.AHHHHHH!!! Dropped the pita bread! No more typing and eating at the same time! Anyhoo, last time we left, Yumi, the "supposedly" hacked character was telling Dj to shut his pot hole or she'd beat the crap outta him (but she said it in a NICE way..) Anyhoo, we know Yumi has secrets, sooo..let's find out what they are! (it'll be a few chapters)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After several minutes of unimportant discussion, Yumi walked outside to sit on the roof. She looked up at the sky thinking quietly to herself. She listened to the sounds of the artificial wind blow through her long hair. After a short time, something caught her eye. She looked down and saw a knight (the kind that Bear is, can't remember what kind) walking to the tavern. He entered, and didn't come out for a while. Yumi, curious about the player, jumped off the roof and walked back in herself. She saw the player and Dj talking at one table and decided to join them. When she did, however, Dj walked off and the player held out his hand for her to shake.
"Hi. I'm Hotaka."
Yumi shook his hand hesitantly looking at him oddly as if sizing him up. He was a scrawny player, but carried a large hammer. He looked like he carried it for show and not actual use. Yumi sighed now annoyed at that thought. "So what is it you need?"
Hotaka blinked. "How'd you know I needed something?"
"Because," Yumi said with an as-a-matter-of-fact voice as she plopped down in the chair Dj left, "people always need something if they're looking for me around here."
"Oh.." Hotaka smiled. "Well, I need someone to fight for me. You see, this man named Gaichi has been threatening me, but I'm only a weapons maker, not a fighter. But he won't leave me alone. He wants me to make him a weapon."
"Then why don't you just make it for him and be done?" Yumi looked up at the ceiling.
"Because if I do, it'll be the most deadliest weapon in the game. I don't want to be responsible if the weapon is misused."
Yumi nodded. This sounded logical to her. She understood what that feeling was like. She knew it well.
"Well..I guess I could. Only for this, I'll do it for no money, but you better give me a favor in return." Was all she said before getting up and walking over to DJ. "He isn't a bright one, is he?"
Dj laughed softly and shook his head, "No, indeed he isn't..but you agreed, so you have to do it now."
"Yeah, I guess I do." Yumi shrugged and walked outside thinking she'd get to be alone, but soon found Hotaka had followed her.
"You know..I don't think I've ever seen your character design before..in fact..I don't think it's in any of the databases."
Yumi's eyes turned cold and hard. "It's not. Now keep your mouth shut about it. I don't want the admins' lackeys on me right now."
Hotaka blinked and just looked her over as she stood still looking off blankly, her eyes returning to normal with her mind wandering off the subject.
She really didn't want to talk about that subject. She had been with the admins personally since the very beginning of "The World", even when it was in the makings. But no one was supposed to know that but her, but somehow DJ found out. She didn't know how he had, but it didn't matter now. She had told him from the start once she found out he knew that he couldn't tell anyone, even if it might even decide the fate of her character.
"You thinking about something, Miss Yumi?"
She blinked, "huh?.. No.. No I'm not. Just about how to help you."
"Oh.. okay." Hotaka smiled softly to her, but she turned her head and stood up dusting her leather corset off.
"Well, Hotaka, I have to go back in and talk to DJ about some other business. If you'll excuse me. When I come back, we can discuss a payment for these services." She nodded and walked back inside and told DJ she was logging out of the game. She needed some real sleep, away from "The World."
"I understand, Yumi, love. I just wanted you to know about the whole thing with the "Tsukasa" character. Would've been rough if you didn't know something about it and the admins cracked down on you, wouldn't it?"
"Yeah..It would have. But I don't have to worry about that, now do I? You'll protect me won't you?" She smiled and leaned in close to him and gave him a quick kiss then walked out the back so she wouldn't have to speak with Hotaka. She walked to the nearest chaos gate, and logged out of "The World."
DJ watched her and whispered to himself, "Yes..I will protect you.." then went on his own doings of gaining experience points and fighting before logging out himself later that night.

Allison:: wOOt!! Yay! I finally got this chapter done! Took me fifty million forevers! Too bad it's so short..
Galena:: Yeah..you and your stupid work. I don't know how you can stand kids every single day.
Allison:: Hey, it's better than having no art supplies, right? If I didn't have those, how could you have come into existence, eh? Tell me that one!!
Galena:: er.. *silence*
Allison:: Anyhoo, I need some advice about this Gaichi person. Should he be a bad-ass genius like Ashram or Lynx? Or just a power hungry insane person like Kuja from FF9? Tell me!
