Lea words : "Hi","Lea","Bye","How","Why","Wait","Sorry","Meet","Thanks"
Prologue
4 months after the Evotarground raid...
Lea and all Evotars were able to come back a few months after, thanks to the research project that Instatainment allowed to be founded by Ivan Vestorovich and directed by Sergey and Evotar Satoshi. She is able to live and move freely around the Playground - even Shadoon to an extent - and logout whenever she feels like "sleeping". She wasn't able to get her speech back unfortunately, though Sergey was able to add new words : "Please", "Evotar" and "What".
Still, she was able to see all her friends again : Emilie, Lukas, Apollo, Joern, and all the others. Tronny too, but... it was soon revealed that he was Sidwell in disguise. It was reported to the authorities, but he disapeared before getting arrested.
Lea then went to the last area of the game, released while she was gone. She got in another duel against Apollo, that she beat easily~ And then, finished the final dungeon, revealing the secret of the Track and the Ancient.
But it was of little meaning to her now. She was finally free to live like she wants and was set to take this opportunity fully. She barely logged out, always visiting all the places of the playground, meeting new players, but most of all her friends.
The Evotar of Lukas also took this opportunity to get a new life, and name : Anton, Lukas second name. He also decided to change his ingame class to Quadroguard and took up on himself to welcome newcommers into the game, by creating a new guild specifically for this task.
As for the rest, most of them continued playing, some had to take a few pauses from playing - real life obligations oblige. But for Emilie, she was always looking to spend as much time as possible in the game. And especially with Lea...
Chapter 1
Autumn's Fall
Lea and Emilie were walking around the plains of the region. They were barely taking notice of the few mobs and players populating the place. They were just looking for a certain spot, not a lot of people knew about, to spend time chatting. The place was called "Villa of Terror", which may sound repulsive, but who actually had a serene little island at the middle of a small creek, in the middle of which you could find a chest. The two girls sat down at the edge of the island, sighing peacefully.
[Emilie] : Phew... Finally made it!
[Lea] : [nods]
[Emilie] : Honestly, who knew this place was so cosy!
[Lea] : ...!
[Emilie] : Minus the few spiders you may find when you come here, this place makes the perfect place for a little rendez-vous!
[Lea] : Lea!
Emilie giggles, looking down at the water below.
[Emilie] : A shame we can't swim. I would have gladly "piquer une petite tête"~
[Lea] : ...?
[Emilie] : Oh, nevermind. I'm just joking.
[Lea] : ...
[Emilie] : ...
[Emilie] : So... It's been... how long? 4 months?
[Lea] : ...?
[Emilie] : Since the raid, in Vermillion Wasteland.
[Lea] : ...
[Lea] : [nods]
[Emilie] : A lot has happened since.
[Emilie] : We finished the game. Uncovered the mysteries of the Ancient.
[Emilie] : You gave Grasshead the proper beating he deserved too~
[Lea] : ...! (smug~)
[Emilie] : ... Then, we kept playing and playing. Just roaming around the Playground.
[Emilie] : Our inventories are full of all the items you can find in the game. We got past level 80 too.
[Emilie] : [sighs] It's been quite a ride...
[Lea] : [nods]
Emilie smiles at Lea, then ponders a bit
[Emilie] : By the way, how is Sergey progressing on your speech malfunction?
[Lea] : ...
[Emilie] : Still no results?
[Lea] : [shakes head]
[Emilie] : Sérieusement?...
[Emilie] : Really, I wonder why he can't just fix it up quicker.
[Emilie] : And he could only add three words, with all the time he got?
[Emilie] : Hmpf... Best programmer of the year indeed...
[Lea] : ...
[Lea] : Evotar...
[Emilie] : ... Yeah, it's true he's probably too busy helping Satoshi with all the Evotars.
[Emilie] : You're not the only one anyway.
[Lea] : [nods]
[Emilie] : Still, they could have at least do that for you. Since you are basically their saviour.
[Lea] : Pleeease... (blushing)
[Emilie] : Hahaha! You've always been so modest about it, Lea!
[Lea] : ...
[Emilie] : ...
[Emilie] : But... You know, Lea...
[Lea] : ...?
[Emilie] : I always found you... so strong and cool.
[Lea] : ...?!
Emilie blushes a bit
[Emilie] : Despite... all that happened to you, you kept going...
[Emilie] : Pushing your limits further and further...
[Lea] : ...
[Emilie] : You remember... when we first met?
[Emilie] : At that time, I only wanted to be the best player of this game. To just break all kinds of records.
[Emilie] : And well, it was working at first. I beat you at the tutorial dungeon.
[Lea] : ...
[Emilie] : But then, you quickly... put me back into my place.
[Lea] : ...?
[Emilie] : You beat me at every dungeon race. You always won against Apollo.
[Emilie] : You even saved all the Evotars... All alone...
[Lea] : ...!
[Lea] : [shakes head]
Lea places her hand on Emilie's shoulder
[Lea] : Thanks!
Emilie smiles
[Emilie] : Heh. Yeah. I guess we kinda helped out.
[Emilie] : But still, if it weren't for you, none of this would have happened.
[Emilie] : And, it wouldn't have turned... this well...
[Lea] : ...
Lea moves back her hand on the ledge
[Emilie] : ... I guess, at one point, I tried to be as cool and strong as you.
[Lea] : ...?
[Emilie] : Even when you got... disconnected, during the raid on the island...
[Emilie] : Even if I was bummed... I was still so... admirative, of you.
[Lea] : ...
Emilie shuffles a bit, like she is not well seated
[Emilie] : I-I always thought you were better than me...
[Emilie] : Even if you were basically mute...
[Emilie] : A-and that...
Emilie blushes more, trying to sneak her hand on Lea's, but Lea had already took it and held it up with both her hands, smiling brightly at Emilie
[Lea] : Thanks!
[Emilie] : . . .
Emilie looks straight at Lea, her face now red like a tomato. She tries to contain herself, pinching her knee with her other hand.
[Emilie] : ... G-gh...
[Lea] : ...?
[Emilie] : Hhmmmnnnnn...
[Lea] : S-sorry?...
[Emilie] : Ggaaahh!
[Emilie] : I-I love you Lea!
[Lea] : ?!
Emilie's heart skips a beat when she realizes what she just said. She looks terrified at Lea, whose face becomes as red as Emilie's.
[Emilie] : A-ah... W-wait! Errr...
[Emilie] : I-I mean...!
[Emilie] : Errr...
[Lea] : ...
The two girls realizes they are holding eachother's hand. Then look at eachother's eyes.
[Emilie] : ... I-I...
[Lea] : ...
It's like Emilie received Lea's muteness. They both just stare at one another, their hands still together, linked. Then, like two magnets attracting one another, very slowly, they both approaches their head closer...
[Emilie] : I mean...
[Lea] : ...
[Emilie] : I... love you. Lea.
Whitout really realizing it, both their lips were now pressing the other and their hands were enlacing eachother amorously. Their minds now floats in their own subspace, unhindered by their environment. It's just the two of them, kissing, hugging, sharing their love. Emilie held Lea dearly in her arms, opening her mouth carefully to change the kiss into a loving french-kiss, that Lea accepts. Their tongues now rubs against eachother, twisting and rolling in their mouths. Then, like transported by the moment she waited and dreamed about for a while, Emilie makes Lea lie on her back, to cuddle her from on top. Lea yelps a bit surprised by this, which makes Emilie pull back suddenly.
[Emilie] : A-ah?! P-pardon je-
[Lea] : ...
[Emilie] : I... I got... carried away I...
Lea smiles brightly and softly caresses Emilie's cheek, telling her she's fine. Emilie smiles back, her hand also caressing Lea's face, then moving to her hair, softly brushing them.
[Emilie] : You... You are beautiful, Lea~
[Lea] : ...! (blushing)
Emilie's hands now moves down, rubbing Lea's arms. But then, moved by the moment, they passes over Lea's chest, trying to fondle her breasts. Emilie immediately pulls them back when she realizes what she's doing, and Lea blushes a bit more.
[Emilie] : Aahh?! Sorry! Sorry!
[Lea] : ...!
[Emilie] : I-I really got carried away here...
[Lea] : ...
[Emilie] : ...
[Emilie] : Well, not like it'll do anything you know?
[Lea] : ...?
Emilie fondles her own breasts, she even passes her hand on her crotch. Lea gets more embarassed for a moment, before realizing what Emilie is trying to show.
[Emilie] : Ouaip. Won't do anything in the end.
[Emilie] : These avatars don't have the... proper features.
[Lea] : [nods]
[Emilie] : And, even if we tried, the devs made sure you can't get aroused, no matter how hard you tried.
[Emilie] : Plus, we can't undress anyway. So what's the point?
[Lea] : ...
[Emilie] : ...
[Emilie] : D... Did I just... sayed that out loud?...
[Lea] : [nods]
Emilie blushes so hard steam almost comes out of her face. She moves away from Lea and hides her head in her hands.
[Emilie] : [groan] I-I'm so sorry...
[Lea] : Wait...
Lea leans back up and gently hugs Emilie from behind, nuzzling her cheek against hers.
[Lea] : ...!
[Emilie] : Ehehe... Merci...
[Emilie] : S-still... I hope you don't mind that I... tried to fool around with you...
[Emilie] : The minute I confessed my love for you...
[Lea] : [shakes head]
[Lea] : Thanks~
Emilie smiles and turns back to Lea, to hug and kiss her more, and this until they had to go.
