[COLOR=Red]" When the Red moon rises in the night sky, the five Blessed Weapons will appear to the Chosen Guardians of the World. They will bring a shining beacon of hope and light to a world blanketed in darkness."[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]A virus has been unleashed in 'The World', making the game almost impossible to play. This virus, unleashed by a character only known as 'The Hacker', strengthens low level monster to unimaginable levels. That is only one of its many effects. Stray AIs wander the server, crowding it so players don't know whether they are talking to a minion of 'The Hacker' or another player. This 'Hacker' has even eluded the administration of 'The World', knowing the ins-and-outs of the game better than the administrators. Now, the Legend of the Red Moon has appeared in the central town of Sargon. Everyone now knows the legend and waits for these five legendary warriors to arrive and save 'The World' from shutdown.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]Atalanta sat down heavily on her swivel chair.
" Finally, the last day of university over for three whole months!"
It was the end of the year and holidays for all university students. She had returned home and dumped all her belongings in her old room. The smell of sweet orange flowers drifted up from the orchard below. The tittering of small birds outside her window, reminded Atalanta of her childhood. Playing for hours in the Spanish sun. Running through the gardens, picking fruit out in the orchard, helping her Mamma in the kitchen. All was good.
Atalanta leant back in her chair, grabbing her satchel from behind her. With one hand, she searched the contents of the bag until she pulled out a new computer game she bought to amuse herself over the long, long holidays. 'The World'. Apparently, it had received 'rave' reviews and most of her friends played it. Yawning, Atalanta pushed the CD into the drive and started installing it.
" Hmmm...I hope this game live up to its expectations," she said to herself, " Bella said it was excellent. So did Antonio. Maybe I'll manage to meet up with them..."
A beep caught her attention. It had finished installing and the program had started running.

Name:
Password:

Atalanta thought for a minute, then started typing.

Name: Hunter
Password: ******

She put the visier on and was transported into 'The World.

[B]'The World'[/B]

Hunter appeared in a grassy field on the top of a hill. She looked at herself. She looked like a wolf.
" Wow. This is cool!"
Hunter began to walk. Something swinging around her neck caught her attention. A necklace with a pendant of a crescent red moon hung around her neck.
" I wonder what this is for." She thought nothing of it and headed to the town of Sargon.

OOC: Ok. Everyone should receive a necklace with the crescent red moon as this is the sign of the legendary warriors.

((OOC: are we using your town names or? Are we also incoperating the original sever root towns? Just curious for my posts))

The three runic rings materialized out of nowhere. Two mre just like it appeared a second later. Out of the first stepped out a tall warrior one that showed confidence in the way he looked about the town then casually yawned. The other two were not so confident, one looked about nervously while the second jumped up and down cradling a golden grunty statue.

Chuckled lightly " Well? Are you going to use that thing or just make love to it?" He said as he turned to the one jumping with glee.

"Well duh, of course I'll use it! Thank you sooo much mister Nemisis! Well I have to go eat supper. Hope to see you one again!" The girls waved goodbye then walked up to the swirling chaos gate and vanished.

The other a sqrawny heavy bladed looked up and Nemisis and smiled then also left carrying a new weapon.

Nemisis ithced his beard then made his way to the item shop.

"Wow...that one guy completely depleted my stock of revives...Hmmm maybe I should find some more healing skills..."

A sudden out burst of shouts and talking caught his attention. A strange character walked into town. It had to be edited...she looked like a wolf. Nemisis had seen edited characters before, no doubt the administators will delete it soon enough. Just as he turned again something on her neck caught his eye. A necklace, almost exactly like his own. Again his stroked his beard as he slowly followed her.

April opened the door to her one bedroom apartment. Juggling a handful of books she walked inside and set them on her kitchen table. She worked at the Library and these books were destroyed so she had to record it. She sat down and took her shoes off. walking over she turned on her computer.

Her phone was blinking and she went and pushed her answering machaine button. "Hi sweety its Mo--" She pressed the earse button before she could hear the rest. She hated her parents the only time she was happy was when she was in "The World".

Sitting down at her computer she opened the program. A screen popped open and she already knew what it would say.

Name: Ammila
Password:*******

"Welcome to the World."

Ammila was in the town center near the Choas Gate. Her broadsword clung into her hand. Walking through the town she went to pick up some more supplies. She heard the other players busy tlaking to one another. Ammila picked up on an intresting conversation.

"Did you hear that there is an edited character running around?"

"No are you serious and the adminstrator hasn't deleted it?"

"Yeah, they say she looks like a wolf and has a necklace with a red cresent moon around her neck."

"Wow that amazing."

Ammila stopped listening to the people conversation. [I]Hmmm a red cresent monn necklace. Sound alot like the one I have. Maybe I'll go find this edited character.[/I]

[Redemption]

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]OOC: We are using server towns. I just used Sargon as the one we all meet in, that's all.

Hunter walked through the town. Everyone was looking at her weirdly and whispered things to each other as soon as she past. The feeling of fear flitted across her mind for a second before she pressed it down. Looking around, she saw a tall warrior with a beard. Hunter had seen this man before, just seconds ago behind her. Now he was leaning against the wall to the right of her. Anger sparked for a second before she realised she might actually get some information from this man...since he was following her.
" Excuse me," she said with a slightly firm tone to her voice, " Can you tell me where I am and why people are whispering about me?"
" You are in the server town of Sargon. And people are talking about you because you look a bit like a wolf," he replied gruffly.
" Is that bad?"
" Well, it means that you have hacked into 'The World's' system and changed your character to resemble a wolf in some ways."
" I did not! I've only just got here. When I logged in and put my visier on, I received this character."
" Are you sure? You didn't do it on purpose?"
" I don't even know how to hack..." Hunter replied before realised that this man has a crescent red moon pendant on a necklace around his neck. "...You have one too."
The warrior smiled. " Yes. You have one as well. I saw it around your neck when you walked into town."
" So you were following me..."
" Only because you are an edited character."
" That means looking like a wolf right?"
" Yes."
Hunter thought for a minute. " Is there no other character that looks like me?"
" Nope. I should know. I've been here for long enough..." He looked Hunter up and down. " You're only a newbie. No wonder you don't understand. Well, I'm Nemesis." He held out his hand. Hunter took it gladly.
" I'm Hunter."
" So Hunter, I'd better warn you before we go. Administrators of 'The World' are probably going to be after you since your character is sort of illegal."
" Really? Ok. Well I'm not going to be locked up. Lets go."
" Right."
Both of them walked into an inn, out of the public's view.

[Zephyr]

Bewahren awoke in a grassy field, staring up at the night sky. In reality the "brief rest" he had taken was used to scan the files of The World for any activity that was not part of the normal parameters. Thankfully, things seems quiet for now. Bewahren used this break to stare at the star covered sky.

[i]I wonder if humans see this kind of bueaty in the real world's night sky.[/i]

His thoughts were interrupted by a ringing sound, similar to a tuning fork. Know what the sound meant, Bewahren scanned the net in search of its origin, finding it to be in Sargon. He stood up and gated into the city. Bewahren snuck into a nearby alley, to avoid being seen. Holding his hand out, he opened a small "window" in mid-air. The window showed a map of Sargon, and three red dots, two of which were inside a nearby building.

Bewahren closed the window and left the alley. He walked into the building and immediately noticed the two people he was looking for, sitting at a table in the back, talking. Bewahren sat down at an empty table and pretended to wait for someone. All the while he was keeping an eye on the two players with the red moon necklaces.

[i]So, those are two of the chosen?[/i]

[Anne]

Ammila walked through the town listening into other conversations about the edited character. She heard a lot of rumor about the character. Some say she was a virus, others a hacker.She had to laugh, she never went by rumors only true facts.

She was starting to get frustrated all the others players didn't know where this player was. She decided to go to the inn. Alot of talk always happen there. when she walked in she saw the edited character. [I]I am so dumb this should have been one of the first places I should have checked.[/I]

She noticed that they character was sitting with the player Nemesis. [I]Strange, I wonder what they are doing together.[/I] She took at seat towards the door and sat facing them.

She tried to see if she could listen in on the conversation but she couldn't. Ammila would have to get closer if she wanted to hear them. She noticed a strange character sitting by himself. It was a wavemaster, [I]I haven't seen him around much. Maybe he plays in a different sever and is just meeting someone here.[/I] She shrugged her shudders and watched them. She would approach them but she wanted to know what she was dealing first.

[Gelgoog Pilot]

"You are certain that you did not modify 'the world' in anyway when you first logged on today?" Nemisis sat back in the wooden seat, stroking his beard and contemplating Hunter's answer.

"I've told you, all I did was enter...strange that the character I picked looked nothing like this...but...what should I do?" She looked concerned no doubt that she just blew money on a game she'd soon get banned from.

"Hmmm nothing for now...it seems there is something else going on we cannot understand." He nodded behind Hunter causually.

Hunter however was as sutble as a rock and looked directly back, seeing the wave master looking on intently. He caught her eye and turnt taking a sip of his ale. A paranoid look crossed her face when she again was facing Nemisis.

"You're attracting alot of attention...there is another as well. I've seen her around before she's not a threat...the other fellow however....hmmmmm. Him I do not know, and that says alot for my amount of time spent here." Scratching his beard absent mindedly.

"No matter, I offer my hand in assistance to you. I have made it a hobby of sorts to help new comers like you out. Besides that...I think we should both find out the meaning of these necklesses, I too do not recall picking this out when I made my character so long ago. Hunter noded in agreement, this game was starting to get interesting.

[Redemption]

A sudden scrapping of chairs caught both Hunter's and Nemesis's attention. Hunter's wolf ears perked up as she heard footsteps approach them. The pair stood up abruptly as a female heavy-blader confronted them. Hunter could see a smooth female face with a few battle scars and a ring through her bottom lip. An unsurpressable growl escaped her mouth.
" So you're the edited character eveyrone has been talking about," the heavy-blader stated.
" Yes. What's the problem?" Hunter replied coldly. Nemesis looked at Hunter. He was surprised at the tone Hunter talked to the Administrator in. But then, she probably didn't realise who it was. The heavy-blader smiled.
" You must be a newbie because you don't realise who I am."
" And what does that have to do with the price of eggs on Sunday?" Hunter replied sarcastically. Her eyes narrowed sharply.
" I am Lenka, an administrator of 'The World'. I have instructions from my authorities to delete your character. But, I think you could become a great warrior in this game so I'll give you a choice. If you beat me in battle, you can play this game without any further obstruction. Do you agree?"
Hunter looked Lenka up and down, assessing her abilities. Nemesis lent in close to Hunter.
" Don't take her on. Administrators are extremely powerful. They have abilities that normal players don't have."
Hunter looked her new friend straight in the eyes. " I do not wish to lose my character by surrending. I'd rather fight to keep it." She turned to Lenka. " I accept."
" Good," Lenka started, smiling, " Lets go then." Three runic rings flew up from the ground and transported the trio to a dried up lake. Skeletons of fish lay still in the dried mud. Nemesis looked apprehensive. He was worried about Hunter's safety more than the deletion of her character. Lenka was renowned for being ruthless when it came to battles against other players. He readied himself to jump in if things got out of hand.

Lenka suddeny unsheathed her heavy-blade and charged at Hunter. With more instinct than skill, Hunter backflipped out of the attack. The skills she had learned in the Real World were useful in this world after all. She landed a metre away from Lenka, who skidded to a halt.
" you're good for a newbie, I'll give you that." Lenka charged again, much faster this time. Hunter only had time to drop the ground and roll to dodge the down-coming blade. A yelp came from Nemesis as the blade shaved the side of Hunter's leg. She quickly stood up only to see Lenka's blade flying upwards. Hunter flipped into the air and landed square on Lenka's blade, stopping it in mid-air. The expression on the administrator's face said it all. Hunter smiled. The red moon crescent pendant glowed a bright red. Three silver blades extended from the top of Hunter's knuckles, the longest touching Lenka's throat.
" Are you defeated?" Hunter asked very wolf-like.

[Gelgoog Pilot]

Nemisis stood there...jaw dropped. I a second he recovered and a grin spread his lips.

"Hmmm I see that more than just the appearence was hacked." Lenka snorted. An arogent yet defeated look filled her eyes. She restrapped he blade and began to walk away.

"You're free to go...however...take care if you start trouble, the Administration WILL hunt you down and delete you. I went easy on you and held back on using my extra abilities. You're good kid, but like I said keep a low profile." Lenka then disapeared within a flash of runic rings.

Nemisis walked up to the stunned Hunter. Placing a hand on her shoulder he patted her on the back, nearly knocking her over.

"Good! Very good, keep fighting like that and you won't even need my help." The fact that the character was hacked more than he had figured was far from his mind. A level one character had taken down a level 78 if his memory of her served correctly.

"Well...I suggest that since the administrators are off our back, that we dig up information on our necklesses."

"So? Back to Sargon?" Hunter turned to Nemisis looking up with eager eyes.

"No...we'll head to my favorite spot for information gathering. Root town Mac Anu."

"Oh wow ok...lets go then!"

[Zephyr]

Bewahren watched as the two players gated out, lead by the system administrator.

[i]Playing the role of the predator again, Lenka?[/i]

Bewahen had a number of run-ins with Lenka too. She was wild, but very smart, and equally skilled with a blade. He wanted to see how well the young Wolf character would fair. Standing up, Bewahren exited the pub, catching the eye of the third "bearer of the necklace." He moved to the Chaos Gate, and warped to a special area.

To those that lived in the area it was Paradise. The players, however, knew it as Net Slum. In the middle of a nearby opening there stood a fountain like pool, which appeared to be made of a white marble. From its surface reflected the image of Lenka's fight. This allowed Bewahren to watch, without being seen like before.

The fight was short, and Lenka was left with little choice but to withdraw. Bewahren smiled at how the fight had ended.

[i]Not such easy prey this time, was it, Lenka? Perhaps it is time I met these players personally.[/i]

[Redemption]

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]Hunter and Nemesis gated to the root town of Mac Anu. Nemesis strode along, unaware of the people staring and whispering about his partner. Hunter growled.
" I'd wish they'd stop staring," she snarled.
Nemesis laughed. " They're not used to seeing characters like yours Hunter. Give them a break."
" Give them a break?!?!? How about they give me one!!"
Nemesis chuckled to himself. Hunter drew closer to him, gripping his arm tightly, her ears twitching uneasily.
" Are you afraid of them?" he asked.
" No. I just don't like it when people stare at me. It makes me uneasy more than anything."
They made their way to the centre of town. Nemesis sat down heavily on the bench while Hunter paced around, giving ice cold stares to anyone who stared at her. They waited....and waited.

" So you beat an administrator?" a voice came from behind Nemesis. He jumped sky-high while Hunter whirled around to see who it was. It was the female heavy-blader (sorry if I got it wrong KittyChanann) who wore a red moon crescent just like theirs.
" Ammilia! When will you ever stop doing that? You scared the c*** outta me!" Nemesis yelled. Ammilia just smiled.
" It's funny when I scare you. Don't you agree....uh what's your name?" Ammilia started, turning to Hunter. Hunte eyed her suspiciously. She did wear a red moon pendant, but does that mean she could be trusted?
" I'm Hunter...the edited character everyone has been talking about," Hunter said, adding the bit on the end as an afterthought.
" Well, now you two have met, I'm waiting for a friend of mine who is very reliable with information. We're trying to find out the meaning of these necklaces."[/COLOR]

[Zephyr]

OOC: By request, let's see if we can get this up and running again.


As the image in the pool of water faded, Bewahren opened another window in the air in front of him. He typed out a short message, checked everything, and sent it on its way. Back in Sargon, a pairs of beeps nearly sent Hunter out of her seat. Nemisis and Ammilia smiled slightly at the sight, smiles which lasted until he too heard the beeping. All three of their characters froze in spot for thrity seconds as each stopped to read their mail.


--Real World---

Atalanta clicked on the blinking mail button on her PC's deasktop. She read the mail qiuckly, but stopped to read it again to be sure she had read correctly. It said:

[i]I have information regarding your modified character, the red moon necklace, and the unique weapon you used in you fight with Lenka. If you wish to learn more come to the lowest level of the dungeon of (Delta) Lonely Sought After Paradise. Bring Nemisis and Ammilia with you.[/i]


---"The World"---

Hunter returned to the world to find Nemisis and Ammila all ready discussing their mail, which turned out to be very similar to her's. The three debated what to do for some time before deciding that there was more to gain then lose at this time.

All three fought their way to the lowest level of the dungeon. When they cleared the last room on the bottom level they were greeted with a major surprise. From out of nowhere they were suddenly warped into Net Slum. Sitting at the edge of the marble pool was Bewahren, who smiled at them.

"Welcome to Paradise." He said. "I was not sure you would make it here so soon, or that you would even come."

"Who are you?" Nemisis said, not bothering to hide his distrust.

Bewahren raised his left hand to reveal a rosary of red beads, with a crimson moon hanging from the end.

"I am the creator of the unique weapons you three now hold."

[Redemption]

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]Hunter stared at the crimson moon pendant.
" You are the creator of these things?" she asked in awe. Bewahren nodded.
" These pendants are given to the Chosen Guardians of 'The World'. Have you noticed that when you are angered or in danger, generally in high emotion, a weapon appears that gives you amazing power?"
Nemesis nodded and smiled at Hunter who blushed. " Yup. We've noticed."
" This is because there has been a recent outbreak of virus enhanced monsters and warriors. These are all minions of 'The Hacker' and 'The World' needs help," Bewahren replied.
" But I'm just a newbie..." Hunter replied.
" Although you defeated a high level Administrator with the help of a Chosen Weapon."
Hunter looked uncertain at what was being asked of her.
" I don't know if I can do this..."
Nemesis put his arm around Hunter. " Don't worry Hunter. I'm sure Bewahren and I will look after you. And after I saw you defeat Lenka, I'm sure you won't disappoint anyone. Hey, when you're threatened, no one can stand in your way."
This lightened Hunter a little. She looked at Bewahren who gave her an encouraging smile. " Ok. Where do we start?"
Bewahren stood silent for a second, scanning everything.
" I have not told you all you need to know just yet but at the moment, there is a crisis. A festival s being held and 'The Hacker' has just sent a horde of high level monsters there."
Hunter's eyes narrowed once again, exactly like when Lenka challenged her to a duel.
" Let's go."
[/COLOR]

[Gelgoog Pilot]

Nemisis thought to himself quietly. [I]Festival?....Oh...the Golden Grunty Festival has been going on for a few days, should end by the end of this week..that must be it.[/I]

"Right...then we head to the Highland city...that is where the festival is being held."
Nemisis spoke out suddenly causing Hunter and Ammilia to jump.

Bewahren smiled "Very perseptive of you..."

"you don't play in 'The World' for as long as I have and not learn a few things."

A quizical look came over Hunter's face..."What festival is that then?"

Both Bewahren and Nemisis replied at the same time. "The Golden Grunty Festival."

All four walked to Net Slum's chaos gate and left for the Festival. They reached the root town Dun Lorieg, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary...except for the festival that is.

"Well...I suggest we enjoy the festival until those monsters get here huh." Nemisis chuckled to himself grabbing Hunter by the arm.

[Redemption]

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]Hunter was dragged away by Nemesis into the festival. Before Nemesis dragged Hunter off, she grabbed Bewahren's arm. The three of them lost themselves in the festival. Grunties ran around everywhere, tripping people over and generally causing chaos. Hunter looked at one. When it saw she was looking at it, it squealed and sped off in hysterics. Hunter's ears twitched backwards in disappointment. Nemesis noticed this.
" What's the matter Hunter?"
" Oh nothing," she replied, smiling. They looked at stalls and played games. Hunter and Nemesis were laughing while Bewahren had a cross lok on his face.
" What's the matter Bewahren?" Nemesis asked.
" You should be looking for the rings when the monsters arrive," Bewahren replied crossly. Hunter's ears perked up.
" They're here!"

Screams could be heard in the distance. Hunter, Nemesis and Bewahren looked at each other and then ran in the direction of the screams. They had to contend with the crowd. Hunter started to get angry. Her blades started lengthening from her metal knuckles. Finally they came to the monster who was terrorising the festival. It was a high levelled skeletal dog creature.
" This looks like its going to be a tough fight."

[/COLOR]

[Gelgoog Pilot]

Nemisis smiled as Hunter said those words.

"Difficult eh? You forget you are with the famous Nemisis of Mac Anu!" He grinned at his old mostly forgotten title. He sped towards the monster his scythe in a raedy position for striking.

"Famous?...How come I haven't heard of him?" Bewahren asked himself out loud, as he too prepared for battle, by begining a spell's chant.

Nemisis reached the monster's attack range eaisily dodging the few swipes it made before Nemisis delivered a kill slice. The monster's body slumped motionless. Then arose again swatting a surprised Nemisis back several feet.

"Damn! So it's true! Infinate Hp...Now what?" Nemisis jumped to his feet rejoining the startled group. The monster leered at them as it closed in for battle.

[Redemption]

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]Hunter looked at the skeletal dog. The words 'infinite HP' rang in her ears. She tapped her knuckle blades. They rang softly, it gave her courage. Hunter looked up at the dog. Its drool dripped slowly from its mouth.
" Yuck."
She watched Nemesis try and attack it but it didn't seem to be fazed.
[I]He's a high level warrior and it didn't even make a scratch! Oh boy![/I]
Hunter crouched close to the ground as the dog swiped its paw at her. Bewahren's chanting behind her became distracting. She turned to tell him to be quieter when a huge thump sent her flying into Bewahren. Both of them tumbled and slammed against a stall, making it collapse around them.
" HUNTER! BEWAHREN! ARE YOU GUYS OK?" Nemesis shouted, distracting the dog so they could get up. Hunter and Bewahren stood up, removing pieces of streamer and wood off them.
" We're ok," Bewahren replied. Hunter nodded.
" How are we going to beat this thing?" Hunter asked as she started running to the back of the dog.
Bewahren followed her. " Combined attack on sensitive areas. Under the belly, on top of the head and on the side Nemesis already attacked," he replied.
" I'll take the head, Nemesis will take the belly, you take the side," Hunter said, sounding like a commander commanding her troops. Bewahren nodded and sprinted around to Nemesis, both of them dodging the numerous attacks from the skeletal dog. Hunter flipped up onto the back of the dog. It whipped around, trying to get her off. She ran very swiftly up to its head and held onto the bony ears with dear life.
" NOW!" she screamed. The two got the message. Bewahren ran around to the dog's side and summoned his immense magic. Nemesis ran and skidded underneath the door. In one moment, Nemesis slit the dog's belly open, Bewahren's magic hit its side and Hunter drove her blades into the dog's skull. The dog howled its death scream and collapsed onto the ground, dead. Hunter was flipped off the dog as it collapsed and was caught by Nemesis.
" Thanks," she said timidly, her ears twitched back.
He smiled. " No problem."
Bewahren approached the dog which changed into data and disappeared. Four items were left. A collar for Hunter, a cape for Nemesis and Bewahren and a letter. Hunter ran over to their prizes. As she picked it up, a new feeling of strength appeared in her.

[CENTER] Hunter achieved Level 8 [/CENTER]

Nemesis and Bewahren smiled as Hunter put her new prize on her neck.
" WOW. I like this," she exclaimed excitedly. Nemesis and Bewahren grabbed their capes but didn't advance as they were of a high level than Hunter. Bewahren picked up the letter, opened it and read it out aloud to capture the attention of the talking duo in front of him.

[B]Well done warriors. You have passed my first test. I am 'The Hacker', the person that has been creating havoc across 'The World'. You may have passed my first test but there will be others, much harder and much more dangerous than these. You have been warned.[/B]

Hunter and Nemesis looked up from their conversation.
" Uh oh....."
[/COLOR]

[Gelgoog Pilot]

"This sounds bad....almost as bad as when the last virus swept over the servers...but back then there was the player Kite and his friends who stopped it. I'm afraid we are nothing compared to those warriors. Even the great Lenka who you fought Hunter is a mere shadow compared to anyone of them." Nemisis said is a serious and shaking voice.

"I don't know anything aobut that, but I feel as if we togeter can do anything, besides that beast wasn't so hard was it? Hunter replied coyly.

"No....but I don't think this guy is bluffing when he says it was just a test. I think...we better do some leveling and item searching, these actions could beef up our characters for the next attack...what do you two say?.....Alright then its settled hahahahaha!"

"We didn't even give you aour answer." they both replied, but Nemisis was too busy laughing to hear them, he just simply walked down the street towards the chaos gate.

[Redemption]

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]Hunter looked amazed.
" So, this had happened before?" she asked inquistively.
" Yes. A time ago," Bewahren added.
" What happened?"
" Well," Nemesis started, " A virus entered 'The World' and changed a lot of things. But two warriors, Kite and BlackRose saved 'The World'."
" Oh."

They walked through Dun Loriag. Whispers surrounded them. Bewahren and Nemesis looked at each other. They overheard some of the conversations.
" Look. Those are the warriors who beat that huge monster at the Golden Grunty festival."
" Are they the Red Moon Legend warriors?"
Hunter looked at Nemesis.
" What's this Red Moon Legend warriors these guys are talking about?"
" A stone tablet appeared suddenly one day in the root town of Man Anu. It foretold of a legend that was to come true. Everyone assumed that Kite and Blackrose were returning...."
" But instead we were chosen," Hunter interrupted.
" Yeah......something like that," Nemesis replied uncertainly.
" Oh great. We're supposed to be these great warriors. Why do I feel so downgraded?" Hunter asked.
" Because you're trying to live up to BlackRose and Kite," Bewahren added unemotionally.
" Oh thanks!" Hunter replied sarcastically. A letter appeared above her head.
" Looks like you've got mail," Nemesis said, looking at the letter.

--The Real World --
Atalanta took off her viser and clicked on her inbox. A message from the Administration was there. She clicked on it and read:

Dear Player,
Due to your defeat of the monster at the Golden Grunty festival, the Administration of 'The World' have decided for you to use the limited edition character BlackRose.
Happy playing!
The Administration of 'The World'

" What?!?!?" Atalanta said and quickly put her visier back on.

--The World --
Hunter came back.
" Well, look at you!" Nemesis said, admiring Hunter's new appearance.
" What are you talking about?" Hunter asked.
" Look at yourself," Nemesis said, grinning from ear-to-ear. Hunter ran over to a water trough. The image of Blackrose stared back at her. Hunter yelped in fright.
" So this is Blackrose?" Hunter asked after settling down.
" Yup!" Nemesis exclaimed.

Suddenly a wavemaster ran up to Hunter.
" Wow! You got Blackrose! That's so cool! Are you strong?" the boy said excitedly.
" Uhhhh....." Hunter started.
