Gathering of the Unlikely [Open]

[Scaith]

"Tch... Tch... Running out of gold... tch... tch..."

A gloomy figure moved out a dark corner. The sun was pretty high up in the air, probably indicating the that it was around midday.

"UUuuuuuughhhhhh Why is it that when I have to go out that the sun is high up?.... Maybe I should wait until noon... yeh... maybe..." Her murmuring was loud.

Scaith stumbled and walked lazily from side to side as if she was drunk (She was not), her ears in lazily hanging to the side. Her expression was one that to any observer would look like she was irritated, coupled with her appearance it did not make for a pretty sight. Messy silvery grey hair, half a scarred face and one red eye open focused on nothing in particular.

"Uuuuuhhhhh I don't want but I need to go out...." She continued to complain.

Scaith was one of those new players and she was one of those that ever since the Apocalypse occurred had shut herself in the city. She did not go out, she did nothing beyond what was necessary for survivable and more importantly did nothing productive. She merely hoarded enough coins to make a living. It was actually pretty sad, but well watching how people had slowly began to improve the quality of life around London was rubbing on her. Yeah, she was actually getting motivated... well slightly...

"Maybe... just maybe its about time I start being useful... hehe maybe someone will notice me for once!" She glanced sideways, watching a group of adventurers happily chatting about their successful trip outside. Scaith sighed, she in that stage of mind that she disliked herself for not being more sociable. She was living but she wasn't doing anything with her life.

"About friggin time I do something!" Scaith exclaimed, she pumped her right fist high in the air. There were a couple of odd looks her way, but her density and lack of social skills made it so that she didn't even register them.

"YEAAAAH!" Then she shouted, this caused some people to start whispering things about her. Again this went unnoticed by Scaith, who now stopped walking and crossed her arms and tilted her head in a thoughtful manner. "But Soloing is scary... I hate getting killed..." Scaith's farming and leveling attempts have been null for her tendency to chew on more than she could handle.

"Maybe I should find someone to party with... But I got no friends~" Scaith continued talking to herself as she resumed her walk toward the main entrance. "I know!"

One hour later

"Kukuku this should work"

Scaith smiled proudly, though to any observer it would look like a devilish smile. Her expression was also scary, though she was trying to put up her most sociable appearance.

The Fox girl held up high a badly made sign board which said.

LONELY FOX GIRL, LOOKING FOR PEOPLE TO HELP HUNT BOARS

"They'll be lining up any time now... Kukukuku"

One hour later

The fox girl was now sitting down in a fetus position. She was also snoring, somewhere along the line of waiting she had fallen asleep. the sign was stuck to the ground.

"Snrrrrrr"

[hikennoice]

A Young boy was passing by when he sees a bunch on people gathering at one place looking at something, and as curious as this guy no one is he got close to the people to see what was happening.

When he reach the crowd, he see what appears to be a Fox Girl on the ground snoring, she was alone and the boy look around to see if some one was with her o if was looking for her.

About an hour later

"Uhh...there is no one around here, is she alone? why is no one with her?" Hiken said to himself wondering why she was alone, and why no one from the crowd before was helping her o wasn't close to her...

"Uhh...oii~" Hiken was staring at that little fox girl snoring on the ground....

"HEY HEY!!!!!! CHEER UP!!!!!"  says him to the Fox Girl trying to cheer her up even that he didn't have clue of what was happening to her (he haven't see the sign) but anyway he was just trying to be "helpfull" to the youg fox gril

"Oiii~ if you need any help with something you can ask me"  said Hiken proudly, and stared at her hoping that she hears his words and accet his help.

[Scaith]

Scaith had at some point nodded off in her sleep. She was dreaming of Rookworst sausages, in this dream the girl was no longer in the game but she was in her tiny room, the courtains shut, her pc being the only source of illumination and she had her plate full of steaming delicious sausages. That was the dream, simple but it made her feel cozy and safe. She really loved those days, those afternoons when she had no homework, no work and she could just sit down, eat trash and watch trashy gore movies. To Scaith that was the life, letting days roll by and she'd be none the wise. Then things started to shake in her dream and BAM she was awake.

Someone was yelling at her. She stood up bolt right, her back straight and her ears standing up, the surprise also was enough that she forgot about her rule of keeping her right eye closed so both red eyes stood at full alert, it was almost like she had been electrocuted. "Huh? Wha? When?" Then she noticed a blond young man with sun glasses staring at her. Scaith blinked several times, her heart was pounding, she nervously fidgeted.

"Ahhhhhh.... someone is talking to me... this is unexpected... I never thought someone would read my sign..." She murmured in a low tone, Scaith had the habit to speak up her thoughts rather than keep them inside her head.

"Waah... what do I do now? ok... breathe... breathee then give it your best shot..."

Scaith took a deep breath, then made an awkward smile though it looked more like a murderer grim.

"Ahem! Y-ye-yes!" Scaith looked nervously at the sides, she was really terrible at this whole being social thing... she really was. It didn't help that she was caught by surprise.

"I... A.... I'm L-looking for p-people to P-p-p-party with!"

"Kuku-ku... I w-was thi-thinking! t-that it would be nice.

Scaith took another deep breath, she was slowly overcoming the shock of speaking to another person. Mentally she was pumped up, it had been a while... well no it was actually the first time she tried to talk to someone in here, mostly she would just lurk and watch people from a corner, listen to what they talk about then watch how the would slowly shuffled away from her, though she really had no clue why the would do that.

"I'm... ehm... level one... a-and... well... yo-you see... it... scary to ehm... kill monsters alone..."

"So... ehm I need help..." She smiled, though again it was a creepy smile from a scarred fox eared girl.

[hikennoice]

Hiken was just looking at that little Fox Eared Girl trying to say something and mumbling to herself

"She looks kinda funny and cute doing that" said Hiken to himself in a middle-tone voice, as he was trying to hear what she was saying.

"She said something about a party i guess, yeah i think thats waht she said"

Hiken approached to the Fox Girl so he can hear well what she had to say, and slowly started to walk to her and comfirm that she wanted to make a party for leveling up, "this may be a pretty good idea" he thought

"Well i'm a level 1 too so we can make a party and go together to kill some goblins and stuff, if you are ok with it" said the young blonde man to her with a big smile on his face and laughing a little, after all he was a pretty energetic boy full of courage but and with great spirit, but that spirit have got him in trouble before (he got the aggro of more mobs than he can handle, because he didn't have much damage).

"SOOO!!! Whats your name??? Mine is Hikennoice but you can call me Hiken for shorter, or nii-san as you like (this one said him from himself in his mind but with a little smile on his face like he was planing something) and what is your class? i'm an all migthy GUARDIAN!!!!!! SO I'LL PROTEC YOU WITH MY LIFE AND YOU WILL HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT!!!!" said Hiken to the little Fox Eared Girl making all kinda of gestures and funny postures while smileing widely and giggling.

[Scaith]

Scaith heard his "whispering" and thought of him weird, not really realizing that she was just doing the same thing as him. Scaith showed him an awkward smile, when he praised her idea. Of course it was a good idea, leveling up was of course a good one. It was about time people like her, started doing proactive things. She couldn't sit by any longer, feeling useless and feeling lonesome had gotten to her. This was a new world! The type that she had wished for, a place to start anew. But here she had been just sitting, sulking and watching how the world moved on without her, just like in the real world. This gnawing feeling irked her and at long last she had it with it. She remembered an old phrase she read in a book one, "there is no day like the present".

"I think so to..." She replied, inwardly cursing herself for not being able to speak properly. That guy was really a bad match up to her, but she couldn't turn him away. She needed help and she got it, she had to stop complaining and start, she could finally start. It was also a blessing when he said he was level one, heck she couldn't ask for a better companion. But she was nervous, scared...
"Ehm... the name is Scaith... G-good to meet y-you..." She replied when Hiken introduced himself. "Gaaaaah what kind of introduction is that! What is wrong with me"

"I'm a S-sw-swashbuckler... level one li-like you... EEK!" Scaith Jumped back startled with his sudden outburst.

"D-don't you have friends you r-r-rather party with?" She asked timidly, then imaginary like she punched herself in the gut. "Whyyyy did I say that!? She whispered, or rather talked to herself in a very low voice.

[hikennoice]

"Well nice to meet you too Scaith!"  said the boy with an energetic voice and a big smile.

"So you are a swashbuckler..." the boy made a little pause kinda like thinking what class was that he had a troubles remember all the classes and stuff.

After a that short pause the boy finally started to talk again, "Ahh!!! swashbuckler yeah i remember thtat class!! That is pretty awesome, i thought that a small girl like you would be a cleric or something, or an assasin, yeah you have the look of an assasin". The boy giggles a little while saying all that.


The boy was all enthusiastic to party with a swashbuckler, "Well i don't have any friends here, i wasn't able to talk to anybody since a haven't spent that much time in the game, i was looking to all of the classes and finally decided to be a GUARDIAN!!...so i think you could be my frist friend here, as you can see i'm a very friendly person!" 

The boy who didn't have any friends to party with him because all the people who saw him aggro waves and waves of minios didn't want to be near him because they called him "dangerous" and the boy was alone almost all the time, so he was excited to have someone to talk to and to be with him.

Then the boy got close to the young fox eared girl and with a big big smile told her "SO! I HOPE WE CAN GET ALONG AND CAN BE FRIENDS AND NOT JUST PARTY BUDIES SCAITH!" this words were so outloud that all the people who was near by could hear what he was saying. "you just let me be the tank and all will be ok, so dont worry i'll protect you with my life (literally, the boy said laughing) you get it? because i have to (the boy laugh again a little)".
