Chapter 2
Natsuki sat in front of her computer dazed and a little sleepy; yesterday's events are still fresh in her mind. In the end, a group of Accrecians together with their race leader raided the Corites and the two had no choice but teleport back to their respective bases. The bluenette idly logged into the game and checked the guild list to know who was online. Of course Mai and Midori were online. MyNeedleIsSharper is also on together with 10 others. When she went to the Armor Seller, she wasn't surprised to see MyNeedleIsSharper and Midori's character all huddled up together at the corner. She knew the two were exchanging private messages. Glancing towards Midori, the girl indeed was blushing slightly while smiling. She just shrugged her shoulders. 'Pshh.. Online relationships, how idiotic could you get' Natsuki thought as she returned back to the game. Mai just came from the bathroom and like her; she was also looking like she just had been robbed off of sleep.
"Have you eaten breakfast, Mai?"
The orange head shook her head and headed back to her place, getting her purse. "I'm gonna grab something to eat, want me to buy something for you?"
"Juice and any sandwich will do" Natsuki answered. She was upgrading her items and was doing some strange rituals to make it successful (which wasn't effective at all). With nothing to do yet again since her favorite party-mate was out and buying her breakfast, Natsuki went to the desert again not to kill other races but to guard the lowbies who were trying to finish their quests there. When her character, Duran, reaches Nadir Plains (a place in Sette Desert) there were indeed two raiders running after two low-level Bellato mages and one Cora which looked like a lowbie too. Without thinking twice, Natsuki jumped into the action using all her special skills killing one of the two raiders.
"Entangle!" She typed, asking the low level mage named Aoichie to debuff the remaining raider. The said mage stopped and did as what Natsuki asked. Not being able to run, Natsuki took the opportunity to surround him with bombs, planting them on the spot where he might walk. And indeed he walked towards his doom. Just one bomb and the raider was blasted off to oblivion and the day was saved thanks to super hero Duran…
NOT!…
Right after the Accrecian was killed, back up arrived and yes, together with the Accrecian race leader. Natsuki knew she didn't stand a chance with these guys since she was only level 49 and the raiders were roughly about three to four levels higher than her, not to mention that there's a bunch of them.
"Ooh boy" she murmured to herself.
It's okay for us to die, you go ahead and run Duran. The other Bellato name KendoBoy said. The Corite was also saying something but they couldn't decipher what it was since its all symbols. Natsuki had no intention or whatsoever of leaving any of them there. She didn't mind dying at all. "These tin cans won't get that much of cpt from me, so its ok, I'm staying." The four kept running around the desert trying to escape when the Corite stopped and did a wave motion.
"Geez if I could just understand you." Natsuki typed back.
"Oh, she said that back up from Cora is coming and we just have to follow her". Her fellow Bellato answered. "She is my cousin and we are playing at our house. hehehe".
"Wth! You could have told me sooner!" she screamed at the monitor.
"Okay, tell her to lead the way and cast your "sight" buff, could you cast that on me too?"
The four circled back to where they came from and went straight towards the Corite side of the desert. With the raiders hot on their tail, Natsuki kept dropping bombs along the way. Not far from them, the back up from the Cora side was running towards them and among them was Kiyohime. Upon seeing her, Natsuki felt relieved and safe. Now they stand a chance against the Accrecian raiders.
To say that the fight was even would be a lie; Natsuki and the Cora back-up were outnumbered. The Accrecian race leader was too strong even for Kiyohime. The debuff were useless since they were using cure potions. They were pushed further towards the Corite port and this could prove fatal for Natsuki and the two other Bellatos, since Cora's port have siege towers that shoots down the enemy race, meaning Natsuki and the accrecians. Kiyohime knew this too and was now typing something.
"Kiyohime said that you just cast your "hide" buff since towers can't see you with the buff on" Aoichie explained.
"But then I can't help you here!" she exclaimed. She just can't hide and watch them being killed.
The door to the computer shop opened and in came Mai, carrying plastic bags with her. Natsuki immediately whipped around and called towards her friend.
"MAI! Log in now! You've got to help us!"
Mai didn't even ask why and hurried towards her computer.
"Who are the raiders?" she asked as soon as she got in.
"Accrecians. It's MrSideBurns and his councils. We are at the Cora side."
"Okay, will regroup the gang. MIDORI!! Stop with the flirting for a while, massive raid in Sette desert right now!"
The said race leader was slightly startled but was soon on her excited mode as soon as she heard the word "raid". "Natsuki, change character. Bring her" Mai added.
"You don't even have to tell me that." The bluenette smirked.
"Guys I'm changing characters, could you hold this tin cans for about 20 seconds? She typed before leaving them.
"Sure no prob. Just don't be too long" Came Aoichie's reply.
With that, Duran was logged off. The rest of the gang was waiting at the Bellato port ready to attack. Mai and Midori were at the lead waiting for the last member to arrive.
"Natsuki, are you in?" Mai asked.
Natsuki pressed enter and "Yep, I'm in"
The Bellato back-up was now on their way towards the Corites. "You know this is kind of weird. We are giving back up to the Corites" One of the bellato's asked.
"Geez, did the Corites asked us for a reason when we asked them to help us during the Chip War?" Midori replied.
"No"
"Then you shouldn't be saying that its weird that we are backing the Cora's up!"
Meanwhile at the Corite side, Kiyohime and the other Cora's were being pushed further back and some of their comrades have already fallen. All that was left were the bellato lowbies who were being protected by a Summoner and three other Cora council who were busy battling with the Accrecias. From the sight of it, it was a losing battle.
Just when all hope was lost, one of the Accrecia at the back of the Accrecia pack suddenly fell down to the ground.
"They are here!!" Aoichie typed. Natsuki and the gang were indeed there with nothing but to eliminate all the Accrecia raiders in their minds. Mai was riding her newly bought green Mau Goliath and was leading the pack. Right beside her was Natsuki's other character.
"Oh Holy shit" It was KendoBoy who typed this.
"Why?" Aoiche asked, not really getting why would KendoBoy be cursing when their savior just arrived.
"Do you know who those are?!!"
"Of course! They are our back ups duh"
"Yah I know that, but do you know who they are?"
"Uhh who?"
"Those are the strongest characters of Bellato!! The one riding the Green Mau, is IronChef! The best Rider there is in all Bellato. And of course Gokutenou, our race leader. And…. Oh my God!" Whatever KendoBoy was trying to say was all forgotten when Natsuki stepped out wearing her dark hora armor set and her dark lance, glowing.
She run towards the enemy spot and unleashed two of her strong splash damage skill. The unlucky ones, who were within the range of the deadly skill, fell down. Upon seeing that Natsuki has gone ahead, they took this as a cue to rush in too. IronChef took out 2 Accrecia while Midori and the rest had one each. Natsuki ran towards where Kiyohime was battling the enemy's race leader MrSideBurns and 2 other council member.
Upon arriving, Natsuki had no problems killing off the two councils. They were like paper to her, easily torn apart.
"You are so mine! You cheating tin can!" Natsuki typed. It was not a secret that MrSideBurns was using cheats like "bug pots", meaning, no cooldown when it came to using the HP potions. She used all the buffs she had and even used burst potions. MrSideBurns also applied his own buffs. Now, it was a showdown.
MrSideBurns was the first to attack, using slash and deathblow skill, but all of it missed its target. That was his biggest mistake and was his last chance at attacking. Natsuki used all her strongest elite skills on him, not even his cheating could save him. All those who were present at scene watched as Natsuki killed the Accrecian Archon, with just one skill combo.
"Wew! That was so COOL, who is that!" Aoichie exclaimed.
"*&(*#&$&&*#(#&$&" Kiyohime said. Translation: "That is IcePrincess, the strongest berserker of all RF Online."
