Mikaru waved his sword wildly while the swordsmanoid dodged every strike. Once Mikaru got rythm into his strikes, he hit the swordsmanoid. The monster finally got a nick at his rythm and started to dodge the blows now the swordsmanoid attacked and knocked Mikaru on his feet. Mikaru's sword was 3 feet away from him (out of reach). Mikaru stumbled to his sword and lifted it up just in time to block a strike.

"AAHH--AAA--AAAAAAAAAHHH" He screamed in a stumbled voice. At the exact moment he hit (and killed) the swordsmanoid, he fainted.

When he awoke, he stumbled straight to the blue treasure box. As he opened it, a deep gas slithered out and as soon as Mikaru took a breath, he was struck by a stronger poisen. After the poisen passed, he hurried to the treasure box. Inside was a health potion and an antidote. He quickly drank both, antidote first. He wondered why an antidote and a health potion was there. It was a mystery to soon be discovered.

Mitaru was playing in an arcade when he found an old virtual game in a dusty corner that looked like it hadn't been used in decades. He put on the VR visor, stuck in a few tokens and started playing. The game felt so real to him.

Mitaru finally wanted to go home and stop playing. He reached over his head but the VR visor wasn't there. He paniced. After Mitaru calmed down, he checked his pockets to see if he had any supplies. Mitaru had some tokens, some washed cards, a pocket knife, and some crushed crackers. He had also bought a basic sword at the blacksmith down the road. Mitaru showed him a token and the blacksmith thought it was some sort of rare money. Mitaru gave him a couple tokens and he taught Mitaru two magic moves: Repth and Juk Rom.

After walking for hours, Mitaru ate his crackers. They were hard to eat because they were so crushed. By nightfall, he was led to a small den. He gathered some dried up wood that was laying around and tried to make a fire....though, it didnt turn out well. He tried to make a fire but it was too hard. He slept the nightby huddling in the clothes on his back.

In the morning, Mitaru got up and felt a rumble in his stomache. He ignored it and kept on traveling. After about 2 hours he came to a stand in the middle of a dessert-like place. He ran up to it as fast as he could. As soon as Mitaru was about three feet away, he came across an overwhelming smell. As he inched closer, he could make out a string-like thing holding a "not-so-perfect" oval with four circles hanging out of it in the dark stand. He got a bit closer and saw that the string-like thing was a pink tail, the "not-so-perfect" oval was a grey, furry body and the small circles were limbs...it was a dead rat hanging from its tail!

Then the stand owner asked," how may I help you.

Mikaru replied,"why...are you...selling dead...rats..?" The smell was so powerful he could barely speak.

"Well" said the stand owner,"This here is food. I'd be glad to share it with you. Take it or leave it."

Mikaru thought hard about eating a dead rat. He hadn't eaten for about a day.

Ascir - June 13, 2003 11:27 AM (GMT)
Mitaru 's hunger took him over but he still wasn't half crazy so he asked,"do you sell any other food items" trying to sound smart.

The stand owner replied,"no, but I've been hunting all day and this rat is only a couple hours old."

"uhhhhh...I'll take it"said Mitaru.

So they sat there, eating their lunch. All of a sudden, there was a small bump in the ground getting bigger and bigger be the second. Once the sand dune was about 6 feet tall, it started advancing towards them.

"w-w-what is th-that " Mitaru stammered.

"It's a...it's a....SAND LION...RUN!!"Shouted the stand owner.

So we ran as fast as we could into no where. Mitaru started to feel bloated. He still ran though. They started to make out a giant wall up ahead. Mitaru knew it was there only chance so he ran faster speeding ahead of the stand owner.

All of a sudden, Mitaru fell and was met face to face with a sand lion. Out of a chance of luck, mitaru noticed his sword on a split second before he crashed into the sand lion. He pulled it out but it was to late, the sand lion had already plowed him.

He couldn't breath. Everytime Mitaru tried, he sucked in sand. He tried as hard as he could but still couldn't get out. He didn't have much time. He lifted a hand out of the sand and felt...air! He lifted the other hand up and pushed the sand aside. He finally got out gasping for air. He looked for the giant wall but didn't see it. The stand owner was gone too. All of a sudden he noticed that his sword...it was gone! Mitaru thought he had left it in the sand so he dug a giant hole using most all of his energy. He still didn't see it. He couldn't believe it, his sword...gone. He only had three more tokens left, no where to spend them, no shade, and worst of all, no energy.

Mikaru looked for the nearest tree or rock for shade. All he saw was a peice of wood and a wet spot. He then glanced back at the wet spot and thought,"there must be water somewhere if there is a wet spot here". So he ran up to the wet spot and looked for water. There was no water from what he could see. Then he glanced back at the wet spot and muttered in a sharp, quiet voice,"...dinner".

Mikaru had dug underground until there was no more water (about three feet). He had slept in the ditch he had made.


Ascir - June 18, 2003 11:31 PM (GMT)
At about noon time the next day, Mikaru came across a town with a sign across the front gate reading: MAC ANU. Mikaru ran toward the civalized group with increasingly speed. He had one thought and only one thought... a sword. So, after talking to many people, he found the weapon shop.

He walked into the store ringing the bell attached to the door breaking a pure silence. Mikaru Punded the counter with his fist and a drunk looking guy came out of the "STAFF" room. Mikaru told him how he lost his sword and the drunk guy stood with a confused look on his face."So ye's wants a new sword" He asked with an unsturdiness in his voice.

"Umm...yeah I guess so." Mikaru replied

"uhh.. okes, heres ye gos" And handed Miakaru a dirty looking sword. It was light and looked exactly like his other sword. He ran out and washed at the nearest stream. It looked good as new!

Mikaru had heard about a warping sytem called the Chaos Gate. After talking to a few experienced explorers, learning a few keywords and about gating out, Mikaru thought he would try using the Chaos Gate.

He had walked around for about 20 minutes until he found the Chaos Gate. He shouted out "BURSTING PASSED OVER AQUA FIELD!!" and was instantly warped to a greenish looking field.

Mikaru slashed the air several times to get the hang of using his sword as a weapon. It was hard but he got used to slashing straight and returning to his stance to block.

He looked around for a "dungeon" as the explorers called it. They said most have torches lighting stairs stright into a crypt. While Mikaru was looking for the dungeon, he noticed yellow orbs everywhere. He was nervous approching one. All of a sudden, several pairs of floating swords popped out of the yellow orb. He looked directly at them and beside them was a tag saying "Disco Knives". So mikaru drew his sword carfully and shouted "CROSS SLASH!!" and slashed at one just noticing and a pair of knives dissapeared into data.
"One down, two to go." Mikaru whispered in a cold sharp voice while striking at a pair of disco knives. Surprisingly, he missed and fell to the cold, hard ground. The disco knives slashed him until he couldn't take it anymore. He stumbled to his feet and shouted "JUK ROM!!" in the loudest voice he could. One of the Disco Knives dissapeared into data but the last remained hard a strong. Mikaru started running toward it with amazing agility. With his sword drawn and the element of anger on his side, he slashed with intense fury and missed but that only got him more berserked.

"AAAAAHHHHHHHH" After slashing one last time, the last of the disco knives disappeared into data.

After wiping a drip of cold sweat from his face, he walked off looking for a dungeon.

Ascir - June 19, 2003 06:59 PM (GMT)
Mikaru had found the dungeon not long after he had killed those enemys. He used repth to heal himself and remembered not to go near the yellow orbs unless he was ready.

Mikaru drew his sword as he stepped into the torch-lit crypt. He heard sounds of screaming and swords clanging as he entered. When he was about 30 feet away from the entrance (inside), the dungeon fell silent. He kept walking even though he was scared stiff. At the end of that hallway, there was a door leading to the left and a door to the right. He chose to go to the left. Right when he opened the door into a room, he noticed that there was another glimmering yellow orb. He approched it carfully. The doors all of a sudden shut tight. Out of the orb came a deadly moth (so the tag said) and another pair of disco knives. Because he had bad memories of disco knives (and none of deadly moths) he approched the disco knives first, listening to his anger. He slashed at the disco knives and hit them, but they weren't killed yet. He shouted "CROSS SL-" but felt a sting in his right shoulder before he could finish. He looked over his right shoulder and had noticed the deadly moth's giant wings. He swung at the deadly moth just in time to feel the pierce of the disco knives. "I'm being double teamed" mikaru thought, "I better act quick".

"REPTH!!" Miakru shouted to restore most of his health. He still felt the sting of poisen from the deadly moth. Just as Mikaru caught his breath (while dodging a blow from the deadly moth), he thought of an idea. He rounded up the monsters up and jumped between them. Mikaru held his sword out and spun in a circle. The disco knives fell first because they were weakend. But since the moth was flying, he couldn't hit it.

"This time" he thought, "I'll finish" and just as the moth was aiming for the next strike, Mikaru shouted, "CROSS SLASH!!". The moth fell to the ground and dissapeared into data. The doors just then opened and the yellow orb vanished.

Mikaru crept through the next door to see that there was no yellow orb. In fact, there was a dead silence that was broken every few seconds by the echo of Mikaru's feet. This room had only two doors (as the last room), the one behind him, and one to the right. He decided he was to far to go back. As he stepped into the next room, he fell to his knees. The poisen had struck him again. After the poisen passed, he peered at this room. It had a door to the left, and one straight ahead. Mikaru, after many thought, had decided to go left.

This room was a trap. There was only one door (behind him), an orb, and a blue treasure box. Out of the orb, popped a swordsmanoid. Just as the monster aproched him, he was struck by poisen again. After two strikes from the swordsmanoid, Mikaru rose. He shouted, "REPTH!!"...but nothing happend. He wasn't sure what happend, but he understood that if he was hit a couple more times by the monster, he would die. Mikaru ran to the door...it was locked! Mikaru knew he had to fight the monster and there was nothing he could do.

Ascir - June 19, 2003 11:43 PM (GMT)
Once Mikaru was back to the room with the door to the left and the door straight ahead. He darted to the door that was straight ahead (or in his case, to the left, if you think about it). He peered through the keyhole and saw a yellow orb in front of a statue... and in front of the statue was a treasure box.

Mikaru opened the door into the giant room. The room seemed like Mikaru was trying to get a treasure from behind a sleeping dragon.

Out of the glimmering orb tossed a mad grass with two swordsmanoids gaurding it. By now Mikaru's magic points were fully replenished (He looked at his tag to see what had gone wrong when he tried to use repth and found out that he had 0 magic points. Mikaru had waited outside the door for them to replenish).

"JUK ROM!!" He shouted starting the fierce battle. He aimed for the mad grass but ended up hitting one of the swordsmanoids. He ran at Mikaru. Mikaru drew his sword and tried to block the intense attack but it was to powerful and Mikaru plunged to the ground. The swordsmanoid had just started cutting up Mikaru's arms, when the other joined. He was being sliced and dashed to the ground. All of a sudden Mikaru found the streghnth in him to pull his sword to a block. Both sword pushed against his single sword. It had become a battle of streghnth at that point. With one hand one the handle grip and the other on the side of the blade pushing upward, he stood up. Once he was well on his feet (still pushing against the two swords), he withdrew his sword causing both swordsmanoids to fall to the ground. He swiftly pulled his sword above his head and pulled it down with all his streghnth and sliced a swordsmanoid in half in time to get knocked down by the other. Mikaru stood up and jumped to the side using his reflexes to dodges the one's attack. Mikaru swiftly turned around and slashed at the monster. It also swiftly blocked the attack.

"CROSS SLASH!!" Mikaru yelled and even though the swordsmanoid blocked it, he flew to the ground and mikaru repeated what he had done to the last monster.

By now Mikaru was tired. So with the last of his magic points, he chanted weakly, "Juk..rom" and blew the mad grass to 1/3 health. The madgrass started gnawing at Mikaru's ankles and mikaru slashed at the mad grass until it it disappeared into data.

Then, Mikaru glanced around and remembered the treasure. He dragged himself to the treasure and found

..........(treasure here)..........


Mikaru then waited for his magic points to rise and used repth as soon as possible. Once he was at full health using the same strategey, he ran out of the dungeon, carrying his new treasures, remembering how auful the battles were to make him run faster. He followed the exact route to the enterance in which he had came. Once he was at the enterance, he laughed at his fears and gated out......

P.S: I don't have many sources to the game and of course I haven't gotten the game yet. Please keep that in mind.
