(A/N)
To DarnedNoob: I had lost patience waiting for your Chapter 11 review. Be sure to give me 2 reviews for both Chapter 11 and Chapter 12!
To readers: R&R! Mimi's POV.
We stepped out of the cab when we reached our destination.
"Perion's so foggy." I grumbled.
"As if this is the first time you've been here." Ben muttered back as he struggled to find a glimpse of anyone with a suspicious face.
"Y'know, someone rang me up on the PM Phone to ask me to go to Perion to meet him." Ben revealed to Joe and Eve.
"This must be somehow linked." Joe looked like a detective.
"I'm not the detective sort. Why don't you try to PM him again?" Eve asked.
"Great idea." Ben said as he whipped out my PM Phone and searched through the contacts that had just called me in the past two hours.
Suddenly, my phone rang and Ben jumped.
"It's me." the message flashed on the screen. It was the mystery caller.
"R u a wizard?" Ben typed.
"No. y?" came the answer.
"Haha. Cuz I was abt to call ye n' you suddenly rang me." Ben replied.
"Ok. Here is my reason for ringin u. Hav u been attacked by a C. Rog when you r abt to come to Perion?" the message flashed in my face.
"How did u noe?" Ben asked.
"U will noe soon enough. Come to the weapon stall at Perion." the caller replied.
"Ok." Ben typed back and hung up.
"Let's go. To the weapon stall." Ben instructed as he climbed up a flight of steps.
"Stop. Here's a quicker way." I muttered and began focusing. I shut my eyes.
When I opened them, we were right in front of the weapon stall. You got it right, I had used Teleport.
"How did you do that?" Eve asked in amazement.
"Happened when I leveled up. I added this skill. It's called Teleport." I answered as I headed into the weapon stall.
We saw a man wearing a helmet. He had a Redemption spear in his hands. You know Redemption? It's one of those spears that only Level 70 plus warriors can use.
"Ah. Hello. I've see you've come at last." the man waved to us.
"My name is Ricky, and my codename is R. I've been hired by the Admin of Maple Story to kill Crimson Balrogs." R held up his card.
Joe read it aloud.
Ricky's Crimson Balrog Killer card:
Name: Ricky
Codename: R
Profession: Crimson Balrog Killer
Often Places: Ship to Orbis, Ship to Ellinia, Perion
Level: 78
Job: Dragon Knight
"Nice." I commented.
"Mega nice!" Ben grinned.
"What did you call us for?" Eve asked suspiciously.
"I've heard of four great warriors destined to protect Maple Story. My tracking leads me to the four of you. At first, I did not believe it. Some random kids saving Maple Story? Pooh! What a joke. But when Crimson Balrogs are reported seen flying all over the place instead of only invading the ships to Orbis and Ellinia, I have no choice but to turn to the MapleDestined for help." explained R.
"MapleDestined? I watch Digimon so I know what is DigiDestined. But what is MapleDestined?" Eve asked.
"Wait. We were all transported here from Earth in different ways. I…" before I could finish, R interrupted me.
"Yes, I know you all are from Earth. I know what happened." R held up a hand to stop us from telling him the whole story. "You see, the Admin picked you out personally. Being a worker of Admin, I was also invited to the gathering to pick out the young warriors." R explained.
"So, what's this Balrog problem?" Ben asked. I could sense his attitude getting more active by the minute.
"Well, we have to travel to Orbis." was the simple reply.
(A/N) I made this chapter short because I'm tired and this chapter is mostly about R. Cya soon.
