Disclaimer: I do not own MS and if I did holy cripes I think this world will be dominated by me already... I also don't own very much anything in this story... if it includes my character being a character with MS clothes... then I guess I don't own that either... OO cripes...

I must make it clear that these are only the names of the characters, they're not based on video games or anime shows. Anyways on with de story

It's not a game anymore

Chapter 3: Meeting map

"Is it dead," The mage asked.

Suddenly a blue ball rolled around and shouted, " Yes he's dead!"

Marth grinned, "Thank you for that info Mr. Blue ball. Well I guess we've out numbered you, Mr. Balrog."

"No problemo, Marthy"

"No harm do-(f2), (f6)wait how do you know my na-… (f3)err. (f7)Hey, (f5)whered you go?" Marth yelled out.

Suddenly a shadow among the shadows appeared as if out of no where. He seemed big, and unable to walk straight. He seemed to be dragging himself.

"You've done an excellent job at this task. It is incredibly amazing, what you just did. I'm very proud," a voice sprang out.

Everyone looked at the shadow.

"Hahaha, well I'll be seeing you tomorrow at the NPC meeting, in the depths of Ellinia."

Everyone looked at each other, "Err." (They all said)

"I'll give you a map." The shadow then appeared out of the shadows.

"Hey it's the guy that dances with Balrog; Dances with Balrog!" Roy yelled out.

"Hahaaaa, joke of the day, everyone laugh," the mage said to them.

Then as soon as they heard her they laughed.

"Ok jokes aside people, this is important we-." Dances started.

"Wait! We won't need jokes aside because they already are aside! And since there aside then there is no need for jokes. Considering the fact that the joke of the day has been decided then, all jokes will be aside since that was the joke of the day. And if we want the jokes to be aside twice we might as well not have jokes tomorrow. And if by mistake we do aside jokes tomorrow, then we'll have to aside jokes for the next, next day. And since that's aside because of the joke, there is no point in asiding it again for you to talk," Marth smiled.

"Yep, I lost you as soon as you began," Crunk sighed.

"Yeah," the rest of them sighed.

Dances F3ed, "Ok, as I was saying I'll lead you the secret lair, but you mustn't, I repeat mustn't reveal it."

"Wai-wai-wait. So your saying that if we reveal the location, then-."Marth started.

"Marth, Shut up!" They all shouted to his face.

Marth held out his hands and sighed, "No harm done."

"Yes, wait... Why am I inviting you, you weren't doing well" Dances stated, he then looked at Roy and said, "Same with you. Go home."

Marth and Roy looked at each other.

"Darn tootin," Roy laughed.

The both of them walked into the distance.

"Now that they are finally within our reach, I would be most obliged to name the directions."

Dances passed all three of them sheets of paper with directions. The thief and mage looked at each other and sighed.

"Isn't their a faster way to get there, No teleporting scrolls?" the thief asked.

"There are challenges on the way, so I'm killing 2 birds with one stone," Dances stated.

"Right-o," Crunk sighed.

The four remained talking; lurking in the shadows rolled a blue ball, rolling into things. He bumped into Dances leg. And… What ho! It seems as though this unorganized, so-called hero has dropped a couple of scrolls. Why not roll away with them and laugh mischievously without any one noticing. The blue ball fastly rolled away shouting, "Mwahahahah!"

The 4 of them looked at him roll away… In confusement.

"Weirdest event of the day," the thief sighed.

The rest of them agreed, "Yeah."

"Tomorrow, 1:00pm, no later than that. You're dismissed," Dances said walking away.

"Well, since we don't know where exactly this map will take us…" the magician started.

"We might as well start now, so we'll get use to the area," the thief finished.

"Yep… You two know each other?" Crunk wondered at them.

"Well yeah," the thief stated.

"You two seem very familiar, It's like we're related or something. What are your names?" Crunk asked.

"Well I am Steen the ice mage, and these are my siblings, Shy the bandit and this is… Shinn? Shy, where did Shinn go?" Steen asked.

"Uh oh… Oh no. This is like the worst case scenario," Shy sighed. "But we have to find him or else were in big trouble…"

Somewhere in Perion…

"What do you mean you only have 10k? Hey come back with my flag! Damn," Shinn yelled.

"Nyaah ha!" a voice laughed.

"I'll get you someday, you… You… Never mind," Shinn sighed.

"Shinn! Where are you?" a voice yelled.

Shinn thought to himself," Hey that's my sister's voice…"

Suddenly a pink ball rolled over to Shinn and made a psst, sound.

Shinn looked down and yelled, " food!" then he kneeled down and took a bite out of it.

"Owwww!" the pink ball suddenly yelled. "That hurt!"

The ball unrolled itself and jumped to its feet.

Shinn thought for a second, "A person? A pink one, some how this seems pretty familiar… Who could that be?"

"Shinn! It's me! Leyo!" she shouted to Shinn's face.

Ding! "Oh right! I almost forgot about you, did you follow me here?"

"Of course not… I was buying potions... And I rolled into you and you picked me up and bit my butt," Leyo sighed.

Shinn thought again for a while, "…. Whoa, that's gross of me." Then he started spitting out spit.

"Yes, you've got that right. Where are your sisters?

"I heard them, but I was distracted by you… Rolling around the place. I was so hungry I had to take a bite out of something," Shinn laughed.

"Oh, really? I heard that their was a meeting tomorrow. In Ellinia, maybe we should shoot the maps down," Leyo took her bow out and laughed evilly.

Shinn joined her. After a while they stopped.

"… I was being serious," Leyo said very seriously.

Back to Steen, Shy and Crunk.

"This is bad, isn't it?" Shy sighed.

"Yeah, your right… Do you think those two boys might know where Shinn is?" Steen asked.

"Well, If you're talking about Marth and Roy… Well. Even if Shinn were with them, by now they would have been long gone, or doing something mischievous," Crunk stated.

The three of them sighed and fell to the dusty ground.

Back to Marth and Roy.

The two walked peacefully towards the deep and dark forest of Ellinia. They stopped when they started to get hungry. They got hungry so they decided to start killing mushrooms and eating them.

"Not exactly what you would call a Christmas feast, but it's the best we've got. It's not like we'll ever get home to eat normally, so I might as well get use to it," Marth sighed.

"It's not like we needed to enter that thingy anyway… Cheer up Marth," Roy sighed.

"Yeah, but it could be the opportunity to get out of this virtual world and everything in it," Marth frowned.

"Well, even if we did get out of this, we would probably still play this game anyways… Cause its so darn addicting!" Roy laughed.

"Yep, you've got a point there," Marth laughed. "But I'm just so curious about what they are doing… Aren't you?

"Of course, it's the only thing I'll die for here… Ok I lied, maybe not." Roy answered.

"Yeah, let's just get out and find out who these people are in real life. They all seem very familiar. Not just the way they act, but their pen names," Marth wondered.

"Why don't we just ask them?" Roy laughed.

Marth laughed, "Oh, right, let's ask them when we see them. Let's start walking again."

The two jumped to there feet and started walking towards the forest. As they walked deeper and deeper into the forest, it started to get darker. They passed by many roads, they all looked similar. It got to the point when they thought they had been walking in circles.

"I recognize that blue ball," Roy pouted.

"We've passed by that like 20 times already," Marth sighed.

"Maybe you should try asking for directions."

"There is no one to ask, Roy," Marth drooled.
"Uh… Marth, I didn't say that," Roy replied.

Marth and Roy looked at each other… Then at the strange looking ball.

End of Chapter.
