After eating the bun that the girl threw at me I got a room for the night. It was nice to sleep in a bed. I’ve been camping out in trees in area two for the past couple of months I want to say. But I can’t really remember. This bed was really comfy…I should take a shower…I’m sure I stink…but I don’t want to get up…
“UGH!” I said a little louder then I meant to as I sat up. I grabbed my hair and pulled it over my shoulder then took out my hair tie and unwound my hair from the braid. I got undressed and then hopped into the shower. The water felt nice against my back. It’s times like this where I can actually think back on what my life was like before this game. “I wonder how my family is doing…do they ever know that I’m stuck in a game?” I sighed. I usually try to be as cheerful as I possibly can…but every now and I again I find my mind drifts back to what I remember from the real world.
I quickly washed up and got out. I didn’t like thinking back. I need to stay positive and know that someday I’ll get out of this game. For now I need to make the most of it. After I dried off and put some short on I jumped onto the bed and relaxed quickly falling asleep.
I slept all the way into the morning. I woke up form the sun blinding me through the window. “I don’t want to get out of bed.” I said out loud covering my head with the blanket and laid there. I heard a knock at the door and I sighed. The world doesn’t want me to keep sleeping does it? I threw the blankets off me and swung my legs over the side of the bed. My hair was flat and all over. I guess I could say that I got really lucky to have a character that has hair that just goes flat when it dries instead of going everywhere.
I opened the door to see the girl from last night…Kisha I think she said her name was. “Yes?” I asked looking down at her.
I saw her eyes look at me up and down then she whistled, “I knew you were cute but damn…” She said.
Cute? How am I cute? I am a warrior!! “Thanks.” I smiled “What’s up?”
“Julie wants you down stairs for some reason. She didn’t tell me why.” She answered as she kept going from looking into my eyes and then back down at my body.
I chuckled and put my right hand under her chin and lifted her head up so she was looking at me and I smirked. “My eyes are up here.”
She blushed, “I apologize.”
I laughed lightly and let my hand slip from under her chin and lightly brush her cheek then I tapped her nose with my pointer finger. “It’s fine. I’m only messing with you. Thanks for the message.”
She rubber her nose “You’re welcome.” Though she didn’t look all that happy that I did that.
I smiled, “Catch ya later.” I gave her a two-finger solute before shutting the door and getting dressed.
After placing all my weapons in my inventory and braiding my hair I went down stairs and wandered into the kitchen after I asked another girl where Julie was.
“You wanted to see me Julie?” I asked finding her in the back of the kitchen.
“There you are. What took you so long?” She asked pouting a little bit.
“I had to get dressed and braid my hair. Sorry.” I apologized and she dug into her pocket and handed me a piece of paper.
“Can you run these errands for me please? We’re short staffed today so Max and I can’t leave to do it ourselves.” She asked.
I nodded and opened the list and it unfolded to about my waist. You’ve got to be kidding me. “Alright. I’ll get going.” I said folding the list back up and then got out of the kitchen so I wasn’t in anyone’s way.
I got out of the Ugly Duckling as started my running around for a couple of friends. I’m glad that I had enough room in my inventory for this, but I would be pushing it. Of course I haven’t had a chance to make more potions and the Elixir of life will really help clear a chunk of things out of my inventory. “I better be getting buns for this.” I muttered to myself as I read the list.
~*~*~*~*~*~
I had to run all over the place, but I finished the list. That was a lot of running around. But I am finally back at the Ugly Duckling. “Now I could give Julie or Max the supplies that they wanted and then I can go back up to the room and make a few things.” I muttered to myself as I opened the door.
I found Max first so I gave him the stuff. “Here’s the money to reimburse you.” Max said opening up his menu.
“Don’t worry about it. I had to use up some Glimmer anyways I was at the cap.” I told him holding up my hand.
“But you have to let us repay you Zack.” He look at me.
“Na it’s fine. I know that you two are trying to expand this place so you need the money. I’m happy to help.” I smiled.
“Well thank you.” He smiled back. I waved and headed back to the room to one get off my feet and two open up my inventory a bit more. First things first, all of my weapons that I normally have equipped had to come back out. Once I did that I selected all the stuff that I needed and made an Elixir of life then some Hi potions and mega Elixirs.
My stomach rumbled, “I guess I’m hungry.” I said and closed my menu and left the room.
It was starting to get busy again. Well it was after dark so people wanted to eat and find a place to sleep. I looked around for a place to sit and a certain man with horn on his head caught my eye. It was the guy from yesterday.
I made my way over to him and saw that he had his eyes closed. I paused on the opposite side of the table for a moment then decided that I would go and sit on his left. The seat was already kicked out a bit so I went to sit. Before I could though the chair was pulled out from under me and bum hit the floor.
“What the hell was that for?” I glared at him.
“If you value your life, I would sit somewhere else.” He told me.
I looked at the table and saw that his helmet was in the spot on the table where the chair usually was…is there something special about the left side for him? Whatever I’m not going to risk my life and my man hood for a stupid seat.
I got up and pulled out the chair on his right. He didn’t seem to do any sudden movements to take the chair away from me so I sat down. “I wanted to thank you for helping out with those thugs last night.” I said and he opened one of his eyes to look down at me. “Don’t mention it. I don’t like it when men take advantage of women.” He said.
“Thank you though. I’m Zack.” I held out my hand for him to shake but he didn’t take it.
“I know who you are Zack, ranked number four on the leader board. I’m Sig.” He said to me.
“Sig...” I muttered. Sig, Sig…that sounds kind of familiar. Where have I heard it before? Out of habit I started taping the table with my nails. As in one fluid motion he pulled a knife out of nowhere and threw it into the table inches away from my hand.
“Don’t do that.” He told me and I instantly pulled my hand off the table.
I sighed. I usually don’t open my menu in public but I knew how I wanted to repay him and I knew where it was so it was going to be quick. I brought out the elixir of life and set it on the table and pushed it towards him.
He instantly pushed it back as he took his knife out of the table. And I pushed it back to him. “Take it. It’s to say thanks for the help.”
