Ok, welcome back to TheDemiGeek's late night posting. I swear. I end up like the school zombie everyday, so I'm gonna try to do this quick and go to sleep. I need to wake up at 6:00AM.

The Story of Yuusuke
2 weeks later
Yuu's POV
It was a close call during that Truth or Dare game, I didn't like the idea of my first kiss being caused by a dare though. It just, made me feel dirty, like it wasn't sentimental. December had just started, I wonder if we could get out before Christmas? Then, I could spend Christmas with Seiko in the real world, thinking about it makes me so happy, being able to meet everyone in real life. We've gotten to floor 75 now. The Assault team has been blowing through the floors, of course, they sent -Heaven's Shade- to do the dirty work, mapping the boss dungeon for the rest of the team.
We were having a Frontline Meeting today, everyone on the Assault Team will meet up in the -Gold Dragons- HQ. Man, that really brings back memories...of when I kicked Blaze's ass. Ah...those were the good days.
Blaze's POV
"Hurry and setup the meeting room! We need it to be as presentable as possible. Along with us, -Heaven's Shade-, -Solar Golems-, and -Midnight Stalkers- are all meeting here! Along with a few solo players and small parties here and there. The priority is to make as many alliances as possible, as well as get the solo players and parties to join guilds!"
It was meeting day, I was going to see everyone again, Yuu, Seiko, Kyo, Aiko, and Tarou. Along with the other people they were bringing from their guild of still only 13 people. Strange people indeed, but I guess it's Yuu's style, he was never one to be popular. He probably wants to fade in with a small crowd, but I'm willing to bet he's tearing himself apart with his OCD because of the uneven guy to girl ratio. I may have been a year older than him in real life, but I knew him none the less, he was Kurosawa Yuusuke, top student, class representative, and dreamy shy geek.
Everyone was impressed by his grades, he may have thought he was fading to the shadows, but all you could hear from Class A was girls whispering about him being 'So cute! He's like a stray puppy you wanna pick up and hug and take care of. I tried talking to him yesterday, but he was so shy he tried to say something and he just couldn't say it. It was the cutest thing I've ever seen!'.
I swear, if I ever catch talk like that in my guild, I'm going to have to become a red player, because I'm gonna kill a bit**.
Later at the meeting.
Blaze: Ok, so everyone's here. Let's get this straight, we intend on grouping all the stray groups as well as solo players into a guild. If you decline to be in the guild, we will refuse to let you on the front lines. It is too dangerous for anyone to be alone anymore, the monster attack patterns are getting more complicated each day, I don't want anyone getting hurt.
He received a irritated groan from the solos and parties.
Yuu: I think what he means to say is that he really cares about all of you, he really does, and he wants you to join one of our guilds so you can be under the wing of that guild. See, when you join a guild, you and the guild members build companionship, especially on the battlefield, so if you're part of a guild, it means you gain responsibility over the guild members, but they also have to be responsible for you. So you may help each other and work together, keeping everyone alive.
Everyone agreed fondly, even the solos and parties.
Blaze: Stupid Yuusuke.
At the end of the Meeting.
Yuu's POV
"My name is Mizunoken, nice to meet you."
"Likewise Mizunoken, welcome to -Heaven's Shade-" Dammit, another male member!
"Who else joined?!"
"Calm down Aiko, we'll find out soon enough."
"Fine then Yuusuke, *sticks out tongue*."
Mizu had electric blue hair, chin length, emerald green eyes, and an average build. He seemed like an average high school jock if you asked me. He's 16 years old and 5'8''.
The others that joined our group were all girls. Thank you god for granting my OCD the blessing of equality.
The -Gold Dragons- got a bunch of members, I'll introduce them. Wait for the list real quick.
Eric King: Arrow
Lucas: Frost
James: Reaper
Sarah
John: Blade
Jake: Justice
Yeah, so they just got filled to the brim, so anyways- AH!
Dawn's POV
Oh... where is Silver. I swear that wyvern goes wherever he wants when he wants, it's like he tamed me. I can't believe him.
"Ow! Not the hair, no! My eyes are important you know!" I know that voice, it's Yuu from -Heaven's Shade-, I better go say hello.
"Hey, Yuu... What the heck? I knew Silver ran off somewhere."
"Really? Thats what you're thinking about while he's trying to gauge my eyes out?!"
"Oh come one, he's just playing, it's not like your eyes are anything special anyways."
"What do you mean they're not special, I use them to see! And they're mixed by both my parents eyes, green and grey. Say they're not important again! I swear! I'll kill you!" He looked honestly broken, did I say something I wasn't supposed to?
*Crack*
Holy crap he just smashed my wyvern.
"What the hell! No, Silver, are you ok?" Silver's health bar was right above red.
"Leave me alone. Don't ever talk to me again." His voice sounded colder than usual. Now I know I've done something wrong, I better ask Blaze about this.
Blaze's POV
"You did what!?" I can't believe she could be so insensitive.
"I just said that his eyes weren't all that important anyways, nothing wrong with saying that right?"
"Ok, you obviously don't understand, I'll tell you the story."
"When Yuusuke was born, he had grey eyes and was completely blind. When he turned 3, his parents, who were scientist, tried to correct his eyes, so he could see. They succeeded, partially."
"What do you mean partially?"
"They injected DNA cells into Yuusuke to correct his eyes vision by adding his mom's vision to his own, but it only restored his left eye. So they kept going, injecting his father's DNA into him, it restored his right eye. As soon as the project was complete, there was a blackout. An error had occurred in the DNA extractor machine, his parents rushed to get it fixed, but Yuusuke was still hooked up to it, and unconscious."
She looked very worried, and anticipated. She looked like a little kid being told a bedtime story.
"The machine overheated, and exploded, killing his mother and father in the process. Yuusuke, being still connected to the machine, received a boost of DNA and enhancing his eyesight, but also infusing his mother's and father's DNA cells inside of him. This caused incredible pain and he cried blood. The hospital found him an hour after the explosion, laying in a pool of his own blood. When the doctors finished operating on him, they noticed he now had different colored eyes, and his grandparents were given custody. At his parents funeral, he didn't cry a tear, when they got back, he locked himself in a room and started playing MMOs, he never was able to interact with anyone in the real world since. I was the only one he opened up to."
"I understand why he seemed so hurt, but why did he only open up to you?"
"It was during 8th grade, I was walking back to the classroom from the bathroom when I saw a 7th grader being beat up by 6th, 7th, and 8th graders, maybe 20 of them. I stood up to them, and they all backed off. I was incredibly popular, so if they beat me up, everyone would know. Yuusuke and I started hanging out more, and I became the only friend he's ever had in real life."
I looked over at Dawn who had tears pouring down her face like a waterfall.
"I'm a terrible person Blaze, I said all of that to Yuu without even considering what I said to hurt him."
"It's fine, you didn't know." She cried into my shoulder for the time being.
After all this time, I realized I never told you what happened during the DNA accident. So I used this chapter to introduce new characters, tell Yuu's story, and end with a fluffy moment between Blaze and Dawn. I'm planning to start a side-story on my profile. I'm thinking of making it a collection of one-shots that Aiko wrote about Yuusuke. Isn't that nice? You can finally see into the fan fiction of Aiko. For now, TheDemiGeek, Out!
