Side Quest - Sword Art Online

Cinera chuckled a little, looking at the girl. Actually... she was pretty adorable. Her fox tail and ears seemed a bit strange, but something about them had almost a calming effect on her worried heart. Things were so crazy around here, and yet this girl was getting so enthusiastic about playing the game. She was a true gamer... and honestly, quite a bit like Cinera, herself. Had this not been a VR game (or a life and death situation), she would have been just as excited about it all.

"Wow... quite a haul you got there," Cinera replied, genuinely impressed. They had only been playing this game for, what, a day? Not even? She had managed to gain quite a bit of gold, in that time. Then, nervously, she glanced down at her hands. "But aren't you... concerned? I mean, it's not like we can really stay in this world forever, right? We should do something to try and get out of here..." An ache grew in her chest as she wrapped her cloak tighter around herself. Things were hopeless... she knew that. But somehow, she wanted them to tell her that there was some kind of hope. Her family had to be home waiting for her, by now. Or they would be. Hopefully. Maybe.

If she were being honest though, shopkeeping would probably what she was most suited to. During the beta test, she had trained her avatar as an animal tamer, which was not a very strong skill for fighting. It could be, but it was dangerous. Cinera had been attacked so many times trying to bend animals to her will. Plus, she had noticed that the monsters were even stronger on the way up here than they had been in the beta test... There was no way in hell that she would be able to train any of them. At least not for a very long time; she just didn't have the knack for it. Yes, the best option might just be to settle down and wait for help to shut down the game or something.

Cinera was pulled from her thoughts when Sapphira mentioned her not seeming like the type to fight. "No, I am," She corrected her, quickly. "Actually, I'm one of the best melee players in my region. But... I'm not very accustomed to virtual reality gaming." This admission made her feel a bit afraid for herself. Hopefully nobody would hear and take advantage of that. Sapphira seemed trustworthy enough, especially if she was offering to let Cine be her apprentice. "I honestly have no idea what I'm doing... It's only been a few hours since the announcement. Aren't you scared that we might never get out? Even a little?"

Kimmy was surprised to hear a voice beside her, and without thinking she turned to see where it came from. She was immediately greeted by a damp wall of cloth next to her face, at which she quickly took a timid step back. Rather than a wall, she was greeted by the sight of a man whose chest was at the same level with her eyes. He was tall... Although, she was pretty short, herself. Her eyes quickly flickered up to see the face of this new stranger, who she discovered was actually addressing her. That was strange...

Just to be sure, she took a couple quick glances around before looking back up at him. Most people just stayed away from her, out of fear. Maybe this big guy just didn't have anything to be afraid of... But Kimmy wasn't sure what she should say to him. "Uhm... Hello," She replied timidly, her cheeks once again flushing bright red in stark contrast to her pale skin. "Hahah... It must be obvious. That I'm a freshman, I mean..." A meek, polite smile crossed her small lips. Her quiet, shy voice could barely be heard among all of the talking.

"My name is Kimmy. It's nice to meet you."

Wow... Her first introduction at her new school. Kimmy felt a sort of thrill inside her chest at the thought of it. Normally she would speak with the teacher before anyone... What sort of things did people like to talk about? Oddly enough, the first thing that popped into her mind was vampires. He would just think I am one. I'm pretty hopeless if those stupid rumors are all I can think about, aren't I...? Despite all of this, her bright red eyes looked straight into his, as she tried very hard to not seem nervous or odd. Hopefully it wasn't creeping him out. Maybe she did have a chance at making friends, this year.

Before she could say anything else, though, the tour guide called her name out. She quickly raised her fragile hand in the air to notify him of her presence, and then turned her attention back to Gideon. What a polite stranger. High school was like a whole different world, all right. A small headache built up as she thought about all of this. The first day was always a strain on her body... but she was more than prepared for that.

"AAAAAAUUUUUGHHH!!!"

Cinera screamed loudly as she turned to the newcomer, jumping back a bit. Her heart was racing, katana already drawn and ready to strike whatever it was that had poked her. This world had her on edge; she was out of her element, and she would die if anything hurt her too badly. It was like something out of a bad horror movie, where something would be lurking in the shadows to reach out and snatch her. Much to her surprise, though, instead of a monster come to kill her it was a young girl that stood in front of her.

It took a minute for Cinera to realize what she was doing. "O-Oh! I'm so sorry!" She exclaimed, quickly returning her katana to its sheath on her hip. Her cheeks flushed bright red. What a stupid mistake to make to someone who was being so polite to her. The girl even asked her why she was sad. Although that's kind of an obvious question, considering the circumstances... "Uhm... I'm okay... E-Everything's fine..." She stuttered, unconvincingly. Her hand reached up to quickly tuck one of her wild locks behind her ear, realizing that the hood had fallen from her head to now hang on her shoulders.

"You, uhm... You surprised me, just now... I'm sorry..." Cinera finally managed a real apology. A tiny, relieved smile crossed her pink lips. "What are you doing out here all by yourself? Were you looking for the town, too?"

@OldManWong Honestly y'all, don't worry about speedposting. If it's going too quick I'll tell you so. But if there is at least one post in-between your posts, you're fine. :)

Will YOU Survive?

@czechmate46 Well... To be honest, I don't like revealing personal info online, so a lot of it is made up, aside from skills/abilities haha. I wanted it to still be realistic though, so I'm glad it was lol!

Will YOU Survive?

Name: Destiny
Age: 25
Skills/abilities: Very basic staff fighting and fencing skills, but otherwise nothing special.
Disadvantages/flaws: Pretty low stamina; can run fast, but not for very long. Bad far-sighted vision.
Weapons: Wooden cosplay sword and a small metal dagger.
Gear: A large backpack with several water bottles and a refillable one, a small pot, some canned fruits and veggies, loaf of bread, Halloween candy, band-aids, various medicines, a thermometer, a can opener, a lighter, a flashlight, some extra AA batteries, 4 extra kitchen knives, and a blanket tied up on top (all things from around her home that she threw quickly in a bag).
Personality: She is very quiet and unsure of herself, a lot of the time. Low self-esteem, but she tries to make things better by smiling through it all. She also is very good at organizing and planning things - very much a quiet intellectual. Wants to be a leader, has the know-how, but is usually too quiet or lacks the confidence to make her ideas heard.
Bio: Lives in a busy town in a small apartment with her husband. No kids. Living pretty decently, but in a bad neighborhood (that only got worse after the virus spread). They have the same job, but she was at home when everything went to hell. He was at work. Destiny would normally stay inside and cower, but after awhile she couldn't stand the thought of waiting for Dustin - her husband - to get home. She has decided to take her chance to go looking for him at the office, only a 20 minute walk from home.
Anything rad about you that you want to include: Nothing I can think of.
