"Um...No offense...," Ada began. She didn't know how to put this into words. 'Hello! i dont know you!' she wanted to say. "Yes, what is it Ada?" He said, smiling. 'Why does he do that? Man, its making me feel guilty for saying this!' "I dont know you...," Ada said, breaking it to him. The boy's grey eyes squinted with curiosity and he said, "how can you not know me? I just watched you almost get killed...by our friend..." "I'm sorry, but I seriously dont know who you are," Ada said, getting up and lifting her axe onto her shoulders.

The boy's grey eyes widened, they gleamed with sadness. Wonder. "I'm very sorry, maybe you thought I was someone else." Ada said, bowing to him. She logged off, leaving the boy in mystery.


Ada took off her headset and thought What a strange character. She exited her room and headed downstairs. She sat on her comfy, leather couch and grabbed the remotes, tucking her legs underneath her. She turned on the large-screened TV, a news channel was on.

"In recent news, one more person has fallen into a coma today," The news reporter woman said. she had shoulder length blonde hair and wore a tacky maroon-pink suit. Akinisa Chan seemed like she was the type of reporter who thought she could make it big, to get off this small little local news station and onto something big, CNN big. Ada rolled her eyes.

"Around 4am last night a woman, who wishes to be unknown, found her son near his computer. He looked unconcious, but he showed no signs of reaction to sound or light, even after almost an hour. Abulances arrived 20 minutes later," Akinisa said, setting her notecards onto the glass desk she was reporting from, "This man will be the 2nd report of comas this month. Akinisa Chan, reporting for channel 18 news."

Ada clicked the tv off. She was afraid of playing "The World" sometimes. Those people who were in comas, they were playing this very game while they turned comatose. She felt like it could very well happen to her, but that only made her adrenaline pump faster. It made her want to play the game.


"Dammit! You failed me! You didn't kill the stupid girl!" The woman roared at the cat-girl. Her ruby eyes gleamed with childish innocence and fear. "Useless piece of trash!" the woman continued. She tried her best to keep her composure, but her patience was limited. She hated lies. False truth. "...Well," she said, calmer, "No harm done." The cat-girls eyes lit up, suprised that this woman was showing...kindness to her? "Bring the boy to me," she said, wearily sitting onto her throne like chair. The cat-girl disapeared.
Ada, hours later, boredly walked into her room and clicked onto the world icon. She was informed that she had one new email. It was from someone named swan. "God, what is with people? First that werid boy, now some email from someone I dont even know!" Ada said, clicking on it. The email read:

Ada, Its beena while since we talked last. Sarine and myself were getting worried about you. Well, meet us up at Dun Lorieag and we can talk!

-Swan

Swan...that name...it almost rings a bell...I can almost put a picture on this name...but its so hard! Ada thought. She felt dizzy, she put her hand to her forehead and said, "must be nothing...oh well." Ada said as she set her headset on and logged in


Log In 06

Ada appeared next to the chaos gate, in Dun Lorieag. It didn't seem too crowded today, so Ada was happy for that. She felt like being alone. She began walking to an open clearing when she heard someone say, "Ada!"

She looked behind her and seen 2 people, one a long arm and the other a twin blade. The long arm had chin length chocolatey brown hair and emerald eyes. The girl Twin Blade had reddish-brown hair that with every step, fell into her face, and she had almost snow white blue eyes.

"Hey, we've been waiting for you," The little twin blade squeaked. This must be sarine...and that man must be swan...God, why is this happening? I know thei names...I cant remember being with them...but theres something missing, something wrong. Ada thought as she gave them weak smiles.

"Whats wrong?" Swan said, as their eyes came in contact. Ada looked away. "Um...nothing," Ada said, fumbling with her axe to maker her hands busy. "Are you sure?" The girl named sarine said, placing her hand on Ada's shoulder. Ada slapped her hand away, the girl's snowy eyes bright with suprise. "What is wrong with you?" Sarin said, her hand retreating to his side, "I was trying to be friendly, honestly!" The girl logged off.

"Ada..." Swan said, comming forword. "I dont know you..." Ada said, turning away. "What are you talking about?" He said, turning her around. She pushed away, and said, "You know what I mean! I havent met you before in my life. Stop acting like you know me, alright?" That was a bit harsh, Aid She thought to herself as the male also logged himself off.

A gleam of crimson caught Ada's eyes as she seen someone hiding in a bush near the corner. "Whos there? You really dont want to mess with me right now, dammit," Ada said, tired of all of this. Maybe she just needed a break from the world, she placed a hand to her forehead and sighed deeply. There was something about those 3 people she had met today that made her think. I know them...I have to.


"Who are you?" Ada said, shifting her weight to her right leg, looking at this cocky looking guy before her. He had chin length brown hair that barely hid his mischevious emerald ink eyes. "The name is Swan," he said cooly. "Ha, thats a birds name too, ya know," Ada joked. She could tell that he'd get mad. "Its a real name too, newb," he said defensively.

"How did you know I was a newbie?" Ada asked, prying her eyes into his emerald ones. "Maybe its the way you act and just speak," he began, "Not so friendly"

Ada opened her eyes and yawned. She was dreaming about that guy now. She must know him. She sat up in her bed and leaned against the wooden headboard, pondering. "I knew that other grey haired boy as well...I just know I do. He wouldnt have told me such things If I didnt know him..." she thought outloud. She got out of bed, the midnight moon casting an ivory shadow across the room and she booted up her computer.

She set on her headset and entered the world.


Ada appeared next to the golden chaos gate, in Dun Lorieag, The crimson moon was shining down about the green scenery. She thought of that church area, she had been there before. She could just think of that looming church, the stale, mustiness of the air. And that boy. She knew him. Tsu-Tsukasa...that was his name... Ada thought as she warrped to that area. Hidden Forbidden Holyground.

The church hung before her, the crimson moon playing shadows that danced across the stone bridge that she stood on. She ran towards the church doors and pushed herself inside. "Tsukasa?" She called out. She set her axe down on the pew, she was almost sure that nothing would attack her here. She heard movement in the corner of the room. "Ada..." It was the boy.

"Tsukasa...what happened to me?" Ada said, as they grey haired boy came into sight. He looked like a child that was recovering from being scolded by his mother, clutching his wavemaster staff close to his pale body. "Maha...," he began. "I dont remember her...," Ada said, looking away, "I dont remember anyone I've met. Please continue..." "Maha turned into...into this beast, she attacked you and you passed out, you woke up...and you didnt remember me..."

"I couldnt have lost my memory. I know everyone in my family, whereI live, whatI got for christmas," Ada said, naming off random events that she could remember from her childhood. "But when I get to the world, I'm just at a lost." Tsukasa sat beside her on the bench. They were quiet for a moment before Ada said, "One more person has gone into a coma today." Tsukasa looked away, his eyes hidden in misery.

Ada had a sudden burst of thought, Tsukasa. He was in the hospital, she could remember, he was in a coma as well. Everything about this boy came back to her. "Tsukasa, i'm going to try and vist you in the hospital. I think i'll go tommarow, I can try to get you more information. I truely want to help you. I want to find out why Maha has done this to me..." Ada sniffed. She looked over to the boy and placed her head on his shoulder.

It was a moment you couldnt put a word on besides Alone.
