A few months later, I was back and running on RuneScape. Late in January, I created a new account, Siege_me_2. I talked to my Mom about RuneScape, and convinced her to try it out for herself. She instantly fell in love with the game, and shortly after leaving the tutorial, made both me and herself members in Early February.
It was May 11th, at 6:53 in the morning. I had off of school that day, and had just polished off another straight night of RuneScape. I had just watched the sun rise, and was back in the game. I logged into world 111, my favorite at the time. It had 602 users.
I was level 53. I had worked hard and achieved much. I had full rune, rune boots, and was working on an obsidian cape at the time. I was spinning flax in Seer's Village, when all of the sudden, my friend messaged me about coming to explore the members part of Karajima Island with him. I accepted and went to the bank to get a teleport for Falador when sadly I noticed I had no law runes to teleport with.
Instead of spending the money on a Law rune, I decided to walk to Falador, as it wasn't that long of a walk. I walked down to Catherby, where I began to make my accent onto White Wolf Mountain.
I passed the level 25 wolves, which left me alone, until I reached the higher level wolves, which attacked me like crazy. I switched on run mode and ran passed them. As I began to decent down the mountain, I saw a level 34, named Pk3r 4 L1f3 as a level 25 wolf attacked him and hit a 2. I noticed his health bar was under 25% full. I stopped, then followed from a distance.
As Pk3r 4 L1f3 Reached the higher level wolves, they quickly demolished him, as he only had mage robes on. He tried to run but it was in vain. I ran over as he fell down, dead. Then I saw what he dropped. There was a few odds and ends runes, an air staff, and a mage robe bottom, but I saw something on the bottom of the pile. I ran closer and made out that it was a Blue Party Hat! Crinkled and old, but still a Party Hat. I ran to pick it up. But Someone else saw it too...
A level 98 named Quizzar3456 was rushing towards it as well. Luckily however, I reached it first and picked up the priceless paper hat. Instead of wearing it, however, I logged out.
I went to the RuneScape main page and changed my password and recovery questions. Then I closed the page and updated my Anti-virus software, which was bugging me for weeks about "new viruses." I did this as fast as my computer would allow me to, seeing as though the one person that did see me take it could be a hacker. I restarted the computer so the Anti-virus software would come into effect. I ran to the phone and picked it up. I dialed my Mom's work number.
Ring...Ring...Ring. I prayed that she would pick up.
"Hello?" her high and cheery voice came from the phone.
"Uh... Mom... I got good news and bad news." I said. My voice was very shaky and uneven.
"Oh, Hi Zach, Ok, tell me the good news first." She sounded a bit worried in my tone of voice.
"Uh... I found a Blue Party Hat." I said. I couldn't believe what I was saying.
"REALLY!" My Mom screamed into the phone. She had heard my countless stories about it and how rare it is. She also knew my last one, and how I was hacked.
"You better not show this one off like the last one." She said strictly.
"Its ok, so far only one person knows I have it, and I changed my password and recogery questions and I updated my Anti-Virus software." I explained.
"Good, we can talk about this when I get home, my shift's over. I'll be home soon." My Mom explained and hung up.
I sat down on the couch and curled up into a ball. I began thinking about this, and how much money I could possibly be making. I then decided no one could know about this. It was just too risky. Just then, a loud alarm noise came from my Computer. It was the noise my Anti-Virus Software made when it blocked a Virus.
I looked at the program. It had blocked and deleted 2 viruses, a key logger, and a hacking program. I was very glad I updated my software, as it had to of been Quizzar3456, or a friend of his, trying to trace my password. Then, my Mom walked in the door.
"Ok, so what's all this about. This Rare Party Hat and stuff." she said excitedly and hung up her purse.
"I've decided, no one should know about this, except you and me. It's just too risky."
"I agree, may I see this Party Hat?" she said even more excitedly.
I nodded, and then logged into my account. I was immediately attacked by some wolves, then ran to into Talvery where it was safer. I ran to Falador bank and deposited the priceless paper hat. My friend began bugging me about logging off, then I just told him I had to go. Then I logged out.
