[center]Donny Yang - Arms Slave[/center]

Arms Slave kept Corpse Collector's attention, but for how long he can do that, he wasn't sure. She didn't seem to need to reload and she's already shoot holes into two of his remaining shields, forcing him down to one tower shield and a few weapons. He still had two open hands but he was saving them for his Chain Catches. He needed something, anything, to create an opening for him so he could go for a crippling shot on Corpse Collector. After that he'd just need to keep up the pressure on her until she's killed, but seeing that she has infinite ammo and could possibly teleport, there wasn't a lot of options left for Arms Slave. The way he saw it right now, the only thing left to do was die, which would suck.

It was than that he saw something fall from the skies, Smitten Kitten. He remembered her from before, but wondered what she was doing here of all places. [b]"Is she trying to join the Black King too?"[/b] He didn't have much time to ask questions when he noticed that she cast some sort of spell at Corpse Collector. He didn't know what she did, but for just a moment, Corpse Collector wasn't shooting at him. This would have to be his opening. He shot his chains at Corpse Collector and noted that she couldn't move. Fine with him; if she wasn't going to him, he'd come to her. He pulled on the chains and they began to retract, pulling his body towards Corpse Collector. He had his Rapier and another sword out, both poised to impale her through the chest. Even if she was a 9th level assassin, he was coming at her with such force to such a weak part of her body he was sure this was a certain kill.

[b]"You're finished."[/b] With a final input, Retsu severed Corpse Collector's connection to the Deep Ground database. It would appear to have done nothing, but now Corpse Collector can't alter her character information any more than a normal player could. Additional, Retsu also rendered Corpse Collector's stats to a much weaker level, weaker than what she would be even at her normal level. But that wasn't the last nail into her coffin. She ran a new program Retsu had installed into the Deep Ground mainframe that would surely confuse Corpse Collector, more so since she was the only one who could see it. Retsu dubbed the problem "Happy Birthday".

Soon Corpse Collector's vision would be blocked by various pop-up messages congratulating her on all the years spent playing Deep Ground, the contributions she made and memories shared. The messages spoke how sad it would be to see her go, but hoped that she had fun and will find a place for herself in the future. It also tallied up her score from Deep Ground, which Retsu had altered to show that she scored zeros across the board. Despite what would have been considered and utter failure, the messages continued to pop up to give her faux compliments for her actions and words of support. But in all the mess, there was one thing that Corpse Collector should really worry about.

"You're free to play for as long as you'd like, but unfortunately once you log out you character will be retired and you will no longer be able to continue to play as [i]Corpse Collector[/i]. But her memory will live on just as you will! Happy [b][i]19th[/b][/i] Birthday!"

Dark Wraith moved in now that Corpse Collector would no longer be able to cheat her way to a victory. However from the looks of things, Arms Slave was about to land the definitive death blow on Corpse Collector. In the event that he doesn't however, Dark Wraith had two of her undead Thralls move into position to intercept her and smack her down with their strongest moves, while Dark Wraith stayed out of sight to ensure that this plan works out as well as she'd hope.
