Turn 1: Ride To The New World!

I always imagined what it would be like being a protagonist of a game.

But...even though i became the game protagonist...i would give up so early.

You can say that cause i don't have any skills to play...nor the motivation of a hero.

But that one day...everything changes...

15 June 2010

Rain fell quite heavily today...i was walking out from a grocery store when i saw a common machine that spreaded across the town...or maybe the whole world...

"Vanguard Ride Machine? Awesome!"I stare at the machine with high spirit.

"So...you like Vanguard Ride huh?"a voice asked me.

"Yeah...wait,what?" I turned around.

I take a step back and see a middle-aged man in a black coat and cowboy hat.

"Where did he come from?"I thought.

"I see...i was guided here by the rain that came from the sea..."the man smiled at me.

I widen my eyes and stared at him...somehow,i could feel a warm feeling coming from this man.

"Do you play Vanguard Void? It's the biggest thing around right?"he asked.

"No...i've only see my friends cards. I've never actually played by myself."I smiled

"When i see everyone is having so much fun...that makes me want to play too." I sighed.

"Then you must be bored all the time."he asked me again.

"Well...it's sucks that i could not play Vanguard but...i'm not bored. I like taking care of my Mother's store...taking care of my little sister,drinking tea with grandma...it is really a lot of fun too."I replied.

"It seems...that you have an interesting hobby..." he looks shocked and amused at the same time.

"Hehe...i like to chill-out...people think that i'm a slug,but it's my hobby and that made me happy."I answered from my heart.

"Hahah...that's fine...but you can't "chill out" all the time...get thrills and excitement...but not with your body or mind...you must stimulate your heart." The man smiled at me warmly.

"Yeah...you are right..." I replied.

"Here...take this..."the man take something from his coat.

"This...is... Vanguard card!" i stared happily.

"It's yours..."he fix his hat.

"But mister...i can't take this...i don't think i have the quality."I said to him.

"I hear there's a tournament a week from now...go or stay it's up to you...but if you go i could guarantee you qill found something thrilling and exciting there."he turned his back.

"I..."i stared at the card again.

When i turned to the Man,he was already gone...and so was the rain...

I then look at my brand new card.

It's front side is blank...

And i could feel my heartbeart is getting faster.

This excitement...this feeling...
