ERROR 7

"What the hell is this guy supposed to be?"

Azure Kite ignored Haseo and backed towards the door slowly. BlueRose watched him intently. Lifting both arms, he returned the chainswords to his inventory and reached his right arm down to his hip. In a flash of light he drew forth a large weapon resembling a miniature Gatling gun. He easily lifted the huge gun and pointed straight at Azure Kite.

"I'll repeat myself. Get away from the door, or I will kill you."

Azure Kite drew his Empty Skies and began to float barely above the ground.

BlueRose fired his gun, shooting hundreds of shots in Azure Kite's direction in only a split second. Azure Kite's arms moved ridiculously fast, his large blades blocking each shot. Haseo shot past Azure Kite and slammed his chainsword into BlueRose's side, temporarily stopping the gunfire. Azure Kite released a the balls of blue fire that flew towards both Adept Rogues.

Haseo jumped out of the way as the attacks connected with BlueRose. The balls burst into a large explosion of azure flames. BlueRose was completely consumed in the explosion. Haseo stood by Azure Kite, both with weapons drawn.

"Did that get him?" Haseo panted.

Azure Kite merely shook his head and stared into the blue flames as they slowly dissipated. Slowly a the unscathed figure of BlueRose.

"Damn..." Haseo scowled. "What is this guy?"

BlueRose advanced again. This time he drew a Wavemaster's staff from his back.

"VAK DO-" he began to shout.

A large blade hit the side of his head from behind, knocking him to the floor. Above him stood the tall figure of a female Heavyblade. Her dark skin and pink hair seemed to glow with a bright aura as she grinned down as BlueRose.

"BlackRose to the rescue!" she shouted.

ERROR 8

"Hey, have any of you seen a Wavemaster named ELK?"

The small group of players all turned around. The question had come from a tall Blademaster whose character strongly resembled a cat.

"Sorry, Mia, he hasn't been around here."

Her long ears drooped.

"He's online but he won't respond to my mail..." she groaned.

"If we see him we'll let you know."

"Thanks..." Mia muttered as she turned and walked off.
