"So what's for dinner today?" Redlink asked knowing the answer. It was slop... again. Red took his seat, as did I. Mariox64 walked sluggishly into the room and took his seat across from me.
"Why are we forced to eat this everyday?" Mariox asked "I know it wasn't always like this." He continued. "Well I'll tell you the story tonight when I take you too bed. But first you have to eat you dinner." I replied and began eating my food.
There isn't much to tell here has we ate. Only that many thoughts crossed my mind. Like about the times before this. When we didn't have to live in stone huts. When our light didn't come from a lone candle in the middle of the room. The time before the Black out.
We all had now finished our supper and I took Red and Mariox to the next room just off the left of where I sat before. I placed the candle between the beds and they took there proper place on the straw mats.
"A long time ago." I began "This place was vibrant with life. Birds, trees, grass, The best apples. The city was huge, with many skyscrapers and other various large buildings. All surrounded by a gate that had protected us from evil trolls and spammers that lived in the surrounding area. If you had approached the gate a computer would ask for your name and a password for verification. If you did not have one then you may choose any one you like."
"Yeah yeah We've heard about the city. but I want to know when things changed." Red interrupted.
"Ah well. The change was surprisingly sudden. Everyone was going about there business as usual, conversing in one of the many chat lounges, playing games in the off-topic building, etc. When everything went dark. Even the sun seemed to darken a bit that day."
"The buildings where nearly impossible to traverse through as it was pitch black inside. The flashlights didn't work. Not even personal generators gave power. The mods were surprised as much as we were. But luckily they work on the fly so they immediately began an evacuation-"
"What does 'evituaion' mean?" I was again interrupted by Red. "'Evacuation', means that they began to escort people out. They got everyone out of every single building and no one was injured, luckily. We all had questions that the mods tried to answer the best they could but without a word from the King they could only make assumptions."
"In the end we were just had to be content with the outside till the light was back on. It seemed like ages that we waited. Finally a user decided to leave and go to another city for a while. But upon reaching the gates he only received confusion, and frustration as the gates would not open. The mods, try as they may could not open it anymore then he other user could. Not even Blablob, the only truly active G-mod at the time could open it. So we where trapped here until the day the power comes back."
"And how many years has it been since that day?" Mariox asked finally speaking up.
"To tell you the truth. I've lost count." I replied and with that a knock was heard at the door. "I must be going now. Go to sleep and I will be back in the morning." I said as I took the candle with out of the room.
Blowing the candle out and placing it on the table I walk to the other side of the room and answer the door. Standing on the other side was MessengerOfDreams. He simply nodded his head but it was enough for me to know what I had to do. He turned to walk towards the heart of the city and I followed suit. We walked until we had reached our destination. The center was a great castle in which King Superyoshi resided.
Chapter 1
Since the blackout several users where given modship so as to help control the people better. Level mods were either appointed or removed as both designers had shut down when the blackout occurred. Some User Representatives were appointed but most kept office. some honorary members took back there place as a mod. And two veteran was given modship one of which was me.
I was thinking about what had happened that fateful day when MoD interrupted. "We're here" He said and begun to open the large castle doors. We walked in and took our respectful seats at the large wooden dinning room.
"Ah when's he gonna get here?!" fourinone spoke up from the other side of the table. I had only been here for a few minuets but Foru must have been here longer. About 15 minuets before me.
"Right now." A voice spoke from the doorway on the other side of the room. Suyo walked in and took his seat at the end of the table. "I understand we call meetings all the time but this one is important. I have found the thief that stole our power." And as Suyo said that everyone leaned forward in there chair waiting to hear the next few words. "The culprit surprised even me. He is one of our very own."
"One of the thirteen!?" MoD spoke up.
This sent all of the members into a slight frenzy looking at everyone in the room. All thinking the same thing. 'Is the culprit sitting next to me?'
"The culprit is none other than-" Suyo was about to answer everyone’s question but was interrupted by a large bang at the doors. Everyone drew there attention to the door setting aside the question for now.
Suyo's eyes became filled with shock and fear as he realized what was on the other side. "No! it can't be. That's impossible!" As he yelled those words the large spam bot broke down the doors and everyone instinctively drew there weapons.

Boss Battle:Spam Bot Thug
HP: Higher then anything they’ve fought before... 25/25
MP: Wait you mean there's magic... Pffft no there's not.
AP: 3/3
"Ace, Mod, MIC, and Foru. You take care of the Bot. The rest of us will escort the king!" Blablob ordered.
Foru wasn't much of a fighter but this was no time to argue with the kings right hand. They all took defensive positions around the table and waited for everyone else to get out before MoD landed with a horizontal strike to the hulking beast. But it did little good as the metal giant only winched a little and returned with a punch to the chest that threw him back to his previous position.
"Tch! Either my blade is dull or my skills are." MoD said putting his hand over his stomach to help cope with the pain.
"Or both" Foru cracked.
"Look we'll never beat it alone. We need a plan." MIC said. And from the way he said it everyone knew that the quick minded moderator already had one. "It's large and sluggish, so It's easy to get around him. Ace, and MoD go around to the other side. He will likely turn so we will take it from behind. If it's about to attack one of us the one on the other side takes a swipe at it to distract it. Hopefully we will take it out before too much damage is sustained." He continued.
And they did exactly that. But as they began to take the first strike it surprised them. It's hands seemed to be attached by a extendable chain which it started to use as a whips to strike everyone at once.
"Any more bright ideas?" I asked after getting up from the painful blow.
"Eh. give me a minuet." MIC replied, probably thinking more about the pain then a plan.
The rest of the thirteen had now made it to the safe room. A room in the center of the castle made especially for if the castle had been seized.
"So, who is it?" Buffooner asked
"For now let it suffice to say that the culprit is not in this room." Suyo replied.
Chapter 2
"this is taking to long!" I said and proceeded to take a swipe at the bots head.
He shook it's head almost like it was hurt and turned towards me. Raising it's hands about to strike I took a defensive position to at least lessen the pain. but has it was about to hit be it stopped. MIC pulled his knife from the beast and it fell over dead.
"I found the battery." He said with a smile.
"Oh god I almost had a heart attack. Red will love to hear this story." I said and began stepping away from the beast's range... just in case.
"So how did it get within the city? The gate has been out since the blackout. No one has been in or out since then." MoD asked. But no one had a answer.
"Let's just get the king. Maybe he has a explanation." MIC replied and began walking in the direction of the safe room.
After getting the king and returning to the dinning hall they continued the meeting.
"So which question do you want answered first?" Suyo asked.
The vote was unanimous. Though the wanted to know about the spam bot the thief's identity still took precedence.
"Alright then. I'm not very good at making large announcements like this so I'll just put it plainly.
It's Alucard." Suyo said looking at me for the last few words.
"Heh that's a funny joke but really. Who is it?" I replied in disbelief.
"It's not a joke. Blob and I confirmed it this morning. Mods seize the culprit!" Suyo replied. Pointing to me with his final words.
MoD and Buff who where sitting beside me lept from there seats. I dodged with a back flip over my chair.
"I'M NOT THE CULPRIT!!!" I yelled as I dodged a stab from MIC's knife.
I made a dash for the door but was cut off by Foru.
"Don't make me hurt you four." I threatened.
"Heh sounding more and more like the culprit everyday." he said as he took a swing at me.
Luckily he's a amateur so i just rolled under it and went through the doors.
"I'll handle this." Blablob walked in front of the other members in the doorway and held up his crossbow.
He fired a shot but it missed. "Dang it!" He takes a closer aim and fires off another shot as I ducked between two buildings.
"That's alright." Suyo began "He can't leave the city. We'll find him eventually."
Chapter 3
"I want this over with before it gets out of hand." Suyo told Blab
It was not much longer after Blab's failure to
"Your not thinking-"
"Yes. Send him in." Suyo interrupted
"Ahh I finally get to kill Card. This will be fun." Shaderixian's voice came from the ceiling.
"No. Use of lethal force is to be reserved only for if the situation calls for it. You are to bring him back alive if possible." Suyo corrected as a man stepped through the portal and levitated to the floor.
"Heh right." Shade said as he walked out the doors.
I finally arrived at my house. Not the smartest place to be but I figured they wouldn't mount a attack till morning.
"Well what are you going to do?" Mariox64 asked after I told him and Red about the meeting.
"Well first I need to rest, in the morning we'll head somewhere safer." I said taking my place on one of the mats.
"What do you mean 'we'?" Mariox began "I kinda like it here. This is your problem not mine. I'll help some but your on your own."
"Don't say that Mario! Ace needs us."
"It's fine Red, he's right. You don't have to help anymore then you want to. But we can leave that matter for the morning." I said and rolled over onto my side.
Mariox and Red both took there spots laying on the two mats beside me.
"Wait, what if they send 'him' tonight?" Red asked with a concerned look on his face.
"Hmm. That could prove to be a problem. Though he must still follow the king's restrictions. But it's best to forget that for now." I had said not to worry. And while they no longer did, I began to.
Shade stood in front of the stone house with a grin on his face "I hope you don't make this to easy. "
"Don't worry I wouldn't think of it."
"Hmm? So you don't want to endanger the petty humans. Lets see how that works out." With the grin still on his face he lit his lighter and tossed onto the straw roof. "I'd say you have 15 minutes or so before they suffocate. Think you can last that long?"
"I should be asking you the same question. I must admit I have been looking forward to this myself. PREPARE YOURSELF DEMON!!!" As I said those words I rushed forward, sword in hand. A direct hit into his heart.
"Mwhahahahaha! You forget Card. My heart is on the other side!" In the last few words he grabbed my neck and lifted me off the ground. "Your making this to easy. Come on show me what you've got!"
With those words I put my feet on his chest, grabbed my sword and back flipped out of his grip ripping the upper half of his body in two.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
The boy woke up from his nightmare panting. He grabbed his head and calmed himself down.
"Wait. What's that smell?"
It was the faint smell of smoke. As he began to cough he reached for the steel door that was the only way out of the stone room. On the other side a hallway lay before him. After looking both ways he opts to go right.
"HELLLLOOOOO!? IS ANYBODY HERE!?" He received no answer but he wasn't to surprised.
At the end of the hall was a corner that led to another hall with a hall just of to the right up a little ways.
"What? Is this place some kind of maze?" He had been walking through the many half for a while now but came to no door.
"There it is! That's the fight I've been looking for." The two halves of his body simply morphed back together as if they were a liquid.
"Oh swordsmanship isn't the only trick up my sleeve." I said with a grin, then I began to morph into a dark cloud.
"Trying to hide in the ashes of your friends are you? Well that's fine I'll just go watch them die because you were to cowardly to save them."
"I'm not hiding." I appeared behind Shade with my sword to his throat.
"Oh good show but I'm afraid I've just been given orders to finish this. Changing to restriction level 3. May God have mercy on your soul."
"Funny time to speak of God." After I said those words I realized I was now tied to a pole. And besides the black floor everything was now a red purgatory.
"It's almost to bad really, under level 4 you would've put up a rather good fight I believe. You are now in the deepest recesses of my mind, whatever I want to happen, happens."
"Ah but you forget your not the only one in this mind Kimonio."
Shade began to back up holding his hand tightly on his head "Wha- What did you say?"
"Hmm? Is that... a arrow? It's pointing this way" The boy said and began walking down the hall the arrow had directed him to. At the end of the hall was another arrow pointing the way. By now the smell of smoke was gone.
"I believe you heard me Kim. Why don't you come out and play Kim. It would be rather fun don't you think Kim?"
"No don't! Stop it THIS IS MY MIND!"
Arrow after arrow he walked through that maze until he finally found a door. A large smile came across is face as he saw the blinding light shining from the other side.
"Ah there you are Kim." I said walking up to where Shade once stood. Everything was now back to normal "Mind helping me rescue my friends from that building?"
