Chapter 2: My Crappy Realization of our Situation

I woke up, only to see Kerlam, Daniel, Miwa, and Akito looming over me as if something was wrong. Oh wait, something was wrong. I think I passed out... Did I have a bad dream? I thought Eva, my roleplay character, and Asher, Daniel's roleplay character, had come to life. Ha! Yeah, right. That's impossible. Wait... I was in my house...What HAD happened?

"Uh... What happened?" I said.

"You passed out when you saw Eva and Asher," Daniel replied.

"Oh... so it wasn't a dream. Hm... alright then. WHAT THE HELL?!" I cried loudly, scared.

Kerlam hugged me. I calmed down a bit and sighed.

"Eva... she took a sword for us... Then Asher came back to himself.. and he healed her... They just... ran off." Daniel said.

"Well.. I have a theory..." I said.

"What is it, Moko?" asked Akito.

"Tell us, Moko-chan!" squealed Miwa.

I took a deep breath. "Well... if ONE set of roleplay characters came to life.. isn't it possible we'll see more?... What about if we see someone like Micaya. He'll end up ruling and/or exploding the entire WORLD!"

The faces of my friends became pale and expressionless. We all turned to glare at Kerlam for a moment. He shrank away. Oh, yeah. Micaya. That guy is NOTHING but trouble. He's a psychopathic (usually a BIG pervert) killer who usually rules over everything.. or ends up like that. So.. if HE comes out... then we lose the world to him and we're all going to die. Gee, thanks for thinking him up, Kerlam! (WE REALLY LOVE YOU!)

"We should plan accordingly..." I said. Everyone nodded in compliance. If what I thought was going to happen was true.. We'd have an almost apocalyptic situation on our hands. We started to strategically plan against our own characters. Such as Micaya, Dark Asher, and Devin and Raphael. Devin and Raphael.. they aren't too bad... But they can be almost as bad as Micaya.

Devin is a girl. She has a long background history. Let me explain, actually. Several years ago (for the roleplay) Devin woke up a little earlier then Raphael does. So, she decided to go for a walk around town. Now, Devin LOVED puppets. She was one of the best puppeteers in town. She could even use a puppet for a battle. As she was walking, she ran into a crowd of people. They surrounded a man who called himself "The Puppet God." Pretty lame, huh?

They all pulled her in, yelling, "Oh Devin! You! Your a good puppeteer. You and this man should have a puppet fight!" Everyone else urged it on. The man nodded. So, Devin pulled out her puppet, preparing. The man, although, didn't move. He didn't pull out strings. He didn't pull out anything. For some reason... the people watching had evil smiles on all of their faces. When the battle started, Devin had noticed the evil smiles. THOSE smiles are what killed her. THOSE smiles taught her something. THOSE smiles taught her that the town hated her. THOSE smiles taught Devin who was a TRUE puppeteer. THOSE smiles proved to Devin to never trust a single person ever again.

I get teary-eyed just thinking about it. The girl had begun the fight, but she didn't even get a chance to move. The man doesn't use a doll for a puppet. He uses humans as puppets. He uses strings that are magically bound to do his will, and they control people. They wrap around your wrists and ankles, and you begin to black out. It ends up killing you if your not careful, let alone if your small and young like she was! The man felt bad after realizing what he had done. He realized that it was a complete mistake. There's a small problem with the man's head because of the strings- You lose control easily. The man felt so bad that he gave his life for hers once the towns people left, since they had planned it all along! Devin had right then and there inherited the 10 strings the man used, and an extra. The extra string is even more hidden then the rest, because it allows her to be controlled as a puppet, by the man, the so-called "Puppet God." Then, let's say like 10 years later or so, she returned to that town, cloaked in a black robe and hood. The way she is.. It makes her look entirely too much like a guy. Most people knew of her, since she was a well known killer by this point. She figures.. everyone deserves to die... She wanted revenge. Big time. A man walked up to her and she new him right away. It was Raphael. Raphael was the friend she hasn't seen for years. He was the friend she left early in the morning so she could go to town. He was her best friend. Now? She doubted it. He acclaimed that he had to kill her, seeing as he was apparently an assassin now. They got into a fight and Devin got way too close for his comfort. She smiled.

"Guess what?" her voice even sounded un-feminine. The guy glared, since Devin held him by his collar. She threw him to a tree and smiled.

"Missed you... Raphael." she said, then taking her hood down. Raphael had gaped at her.

"Oh...! Devin.. Its been years." he, by now, had stopped trying to kill her, and hugged her. The day went on and she had found out that Raphael bought the house Devin always wanted. Then, he proposed. Just on the spot.. Very cute. Eventually, they decided to attack a castle of a nearby town. There plan was to rule the world. Together. They had a HUGE problem, though... When they started to fight, a poison bomb got thrown off, releasing poisoned gas. Raphael only got sick, but her persevered. Devin, although, had a lot more trouble. Devin, as with the "Puppet God," both realized that poison does not affect them as it would a normal human. A poison is nearly just as bad, if not worse for a Puppeteer of her type. The poison gets within the mind of a puppeteer, starting to corrupt them. They start to see images of Hell, and the Devil. That's what makes them easily crazy. The poison got to Devin, meaning she was no longer her real self. She became. Part Demon... She became harder to kill.. Her strings became more durable and black, blending into the shadows well. The strings can just about move on their own. Like, they have their own mind. Her left eye is a deep, red color. Her right eye is a deep purple color. Well.. That's about it for Devin and Raphael. I wouldn't be surprised if I saw them outside.

Sure enough, a loud explosion outside the house. Walking outside in fear, I figured it was another roleplay character. I was right. But that wasn't Devin. Or Raphael. And Thank GOD it wasn't Micaya. But a boy. He looked familiar. And a girl tackled him, yelling at him in a pissed off voice "YOU SON OF A-"

"Oh. MIWA-KUNNNNNNNN~" yelled the boy. The girl waved also. I knew who they were now!
