shinigaru warped into (delta) blue haired loser and looked around at the, now much more real, graphics. 'man, how long has it been? it feels like years have gone by since 'the world' shut down...but has it really only been a few months?' shinigaru closed his eyes and listened to the rustling of the leaves and grass.
'kaze, will you ever return?' he opened his eyes and walked around feeling his shoes scrape through the grass kicking up some blades. he smelt the air, it smelt, good. "this is all so much more real; i guess that was the idea" shinigaru said to himself as he came upon a group of monsters. "welp only one way to find out how real this game really is."
shinigaru launched himself on the three goblins with a sneak attack and started shooting them to oblivion with his dg-z dual guns. "so this is what dual guns feel like" he said reloading then opening up on the remaining two monsters as one fell and turned black. then suddenly one charged up and hit him with a super attack. ", this whole "real" thing might not be the best idea." then he shot at them until the were close together and used his only reaction command so far to finish both of them off. "heh, that was easier than i thought." he said as he watched his exp. rise.

((it's been 2 years. read the welcome table.)) Spiral arrived at a randomly created Area. it was (delta) Blue Haired Loser. he wondered fleetingly what they were smoking when they included that last Keyword. looking around with curiosity he wondered what level area this was. he remembered somewhere in that manual that randomly generated Keywords are tapered to the PC's level, but he couldn't remember. walking forward he felt the air passing over his skin as a breeze rustled the leaves and tiny blades of grass. is this how Kaze felt constantly? he asked himself ruefully. The mundane of the here-and-now was slithering up his ankles, threatening to suffocate him. He shook it off as he broke into a dash across the field.
He suddenly Wished Collosus was there to talk to about the old days. even though neither of them accepted those Kestral days, and even though both of them regretted them, he was the only one in this new world that he could talk to about anything. And then the other things...there was no one. He suddenly heard battle sounds. clashing and knashing around the bend. He ran around the plateau to find that the battle fence was just dissipating.
an Player was standing there that seemed to have taken advantage of the newest multi-class. There were much of those yet in this world, due to the stat deficiencies they shared with the Adept rouges, and due to the other classes that new players thought were stronger; therefore more effective and funner to play. indeed; the stronger players were funner to play sometimes. He looked at the person. Due to his class choice he might have played in R:1 or R:2. he sighed. more nostalgia for the heavy hearted. He walked up to the character like Kaze to a data anomoly, and tapped him on the shoulder. "Nice choice of PC body." he struck up conversation, bored and running from thought.

shinigaru felt something touch his shoulder then heard someone compliment his pc. he spun around and saw that it was blade brandier. he looked into the eyes of the new player, 'those eyes, they seem...familiar. no, couldn't be' he thought to himself then realized he hadn't said anything to this player yet. "oh, um, thanks. yours is cool too...spiral?" he said moving his mouse over the player's pc. "blade brandier huh? awesome, i was considering that."
shinigaru felt a gust of wind rustle his hair and clothes. he whipped out his DG-Z and spun them on his forefingers in a very "wild wild west" sort of way. then he pointed them at the pc and grinned, "pretty cool, huh?" he put them away not wanting to get into a fight. "i can't wait to level up and get the rest of my weapons." he said trying to start some more conversation.

"yeah. It's a random name, but I like it." he saw that the user's name was Shinigaru, but neglected to say anything. he seemed familiar the way he spoke, but Spiral didn't say anything. he might have just been another member of Kestral. maybe someone he'd PKed? regardless he didn't know enough about this guy to jump to those kinds of conclusions. "yeah, I was a Twin Blade in R:2 and wanted to try something new."
There was a gust of wind, and shinigaru showed off his DG-Z with a sort of John wayne finesse. he had seen them before, but not in this revision. "yeah...I like swords my self. That's the only problem with Adept rogues and Exotic Wielders. The anticipation is killer." he nodded in agreement. he scratched the back of his head with a embarased expression, not sure of what to say next. then he thought of something. "have you heard of the item "wings of Catharsis?"

((sorry, to tired for a post longer than a paragraph))
"wings...of catharsis? no what's it do?" shinigaru asked genuinely curious. "does it make you fly?" he asked sarcastically folding his arms and shifting his weight from foot to foot. 'i can' thelp but feel that i know this person from somewhere. oh well, maybe i'm being paranoid'

((Lame)) "no. they don't make you fly...I don't think. I don't really know what they do." Spiral admitted. thinking about why he was doing this. "to tell you the truth I don't know anything about them. I'm just trying to find them. it's an Item that Aust is looking for. you don't know who Aust is...do you?" he asked, cocking his head. "ofcourse you don't. Aust is the AI that watches over my Guild, the agents of Catharsis. he told me to look for it. I guess I don't know what else to do, so I'm doing what he says for the time being."

shinigaru reached out of instinct for where his gun used to be that he had used to erase data enomolies. 'wow, even though it's been so long...the instinct still remains. weird.' he looked at spiral "hm, so you have an AI in your guild? doesn't that get kinda weird, you know, having it float around." he looked at him and thought that he could be someone from R:2. 'maybe, maybe not'

"wierd doesn't begin to describe it." Spiral comented sarcastically. "he talks constatly in riddles so it's hard to understand what he's saying. hm..." Spiral thought for a minute before responding. he shifted his weight on his hips, and continued. "you sound like you know something of AIs. were you in R:2 or just heard about it...or something...?" he fumbled, not sure how to initiate that conversation.

"yes, i played in R:2 and also i..." shinigaru thought of mentioning the emerald knights, but didn't. "never mind. so, you seem like you've been playing for a while. you and R:1-er or R:2-er?"

"Yeah. I played alittle in R:1. but mostly just R:2. I was a PK, though, a Chaotic PK." Spiral thought of how PK was nowhere near his current personality. Suzu had changed him alot... "but not anymore. I saw the error of my ways...most of us did. just a little too late I think." He didn't know if he should mention his username. they probably didn't know each other.

"well good thing we're not like we were in R:2, we might not have gotten along so well." he thought thinking back to his battles with kaze and that other character...what was his name? 'mustang? no, bronco? no, dangit, what was his name?!' "anyway, that doesn't matter; it's in the past. so what made you change your mind about being a PK?"

Spiral smiled wryly. "I met a special Character. do you remember that Gates phenomanon back towards the end of R:2? during that time I found Knight. He was an interesting character." Spiral wondered if this character knew Knight, but he doubted it. The World was a big place. then again...Knight was all over the place; a busy guy.

'Knight!?! this guy knew who knight was, and if he knew knight...' "yeah, i remember that all to well. when that was going on i made some mistakes. i joined C.C.Corp and was corrupt with power; the power to destroy "the world". but i changed my ways. anyway, enough about me..." he said coming off his trip down memory lane and back to the present. "...did you ever run into a Player Character named Kaze?"

Spiral's eyes opened wide. he jumped backwards suddenly and pulled out his sword. "Kisuke!" he couldn't be wrong about this. that selfish bastard joey Kisuke!! if he was still with C.C. Corp there was a good chance he knew exactly who he was. this could be bad. "If you're so changed, prove it!!"

shinigaru jumped back and pulled out his DG-Z at the sound of his old name. "first, explain: how do you know who i was?" shinigaru looked into the eyes of the player. 'obviously this guy knew me as well. he does seem very familiar. a chaotic PK? that i knew...THAT'S IT!' "Stalion!"
