Fangboy looked around his terrain, gripping his blaster tightly in his hands as he scoped his surroundings. His visor flashed, alerting him of a presence. Suddenly, a monster that had been hiding behind several rocks jumped at him.
BANG!
In an instant, a gaping and smoking hole was in its chest before its body vanished.
"Now where are those girls?" Fangboy muttered.
"Here we are!" shouted Green Girl as she came into view, her laser crossbow strapped to her arm as she waved. Flanking her were She-Dragon and Phoenix, armed with a sword and spear, respectively.
Fangboy frowned, "What took you girls?"
"Well, we haven't really played this game before," Phoenix huffed. "It takes getting used to."
"Well, without Ghostgirl and Sniper around, I need a party and you girls are the only ones here," Fangboy spoke up. The girls beamed and he rolled his eyes.
Devlin had introduced the girls to the joys of the famous MMORPG known as Doomed. Danielle had introduced him to the game and, next to Chaos, he was the most powerful player around. Like her he knew some cheats that could get him easy experience, power ups, and some cool upgrades. He was already at LV: 45. The girls; Nami, Anzu and Suzume, were all n00bs so they needed him to survive the game. Thus far, Suzume had gotten herself killed 5 times in under 5 minutes. It was her lack of patience that usually caused her to make the mistake.

"Well…" Fangboy/Devlin spoke up as he pulled out a map and laid it out, "There's supposed to be this chest with an item that allows a player to LV UP by 10." The girls exchanged smirks, wanting that prize. "But, so far, every player that has tried to get to it keeps getting killed."
"Well, I believe we may be the first," She-Dragon/Nami spoke.
"Hey, I already got killed," Phoenix/Suzume said in objection, "I'm not interested in starting over again."
"Suzume, you got killed those times trying to fight monsters that were at an extremely high level," She-Dragon reminded.
"You don't have to remind me."
"OK," Fangboy said as he gathered the group's attention. "Here's the plan…"
