@TheNoCoKid

Can search for me an image for my character? I'm not satisfied with what I'm using.
Sorry for taking a while but yes I'm still here.

@Xaltwind

Glad you liked it
The clock's ticking was the only sound that could be heard across the room. The room was quite cold but the sole occupant of the room was not bothered.

Assignments done, his reports had already been written and printed, his part for their group assignment...

...he still needs to wait for everyone else's parts but it would be trivially easy once they came.

And with every single schoolwork that requires immediate attention out of the way he could finally go back to his hobbies.

Namely card games, but unfortunately not on motorcycles or virtual reality.

Closing the tabs on his laptop, he quickly opened an application on his computer.

[Dominion Master Online]

[Friend Chat- You are now conversing with EndlessWest]


Pierrotee: You ready?

EndlessWest: Oh, you’re finally online. Ranked is boring now. All Dominions nothing else.

Pierrotee: You’re playing Dominion as well.

EndlessWest: Doesn’t matter, you’re like the only person not going to play it. Worst Meta Ever.

Pierrotee: I’m pretty sure the meta was not that lopsided.

Endless West: You’re the only established player bringing something else. Evrybody else is meta slave.

Pierrotee: cept CapCrown

Endless West: He is a given, praise the meme

Pierrotee: So ready play?

Endless: Yes, already sent decklist and sideboard


It took a minute but he also sent his decklist and sideboard.

He played a few games for a while. He won more games than he lost which is something that worked but didn’t expect.


EndlessWest: Your sideboarding and cold reading was bs, you’re is also very aggressive.

Pierrotee: Need to, can’t let you get a room to breath.

EndlessWest: Need to update my sideboard, can’t let you win easily after all

Pierrotee: easfdtefaweE

EndessWest: Are you alright?


A day later, the community will learn of Pierrotee’s unusual death from a truck that was somehow sent to the second floor of his residence.

As a form of tribute, various players would play a variation of his deck at the tournament he was supposed to play. Many would fall in the group stage, not used to circumventing the deck's drawbacks. But those who played wiselty and boldly found themselves to be unstoppable against others.

With the winner EndlessWest, dedicated his win to him.

But the story of the man who died wasn’t over.

Beyond the physical world, he opened his eyes. Name was forgotten but the man was still there.

Cristina's hunch was soon proven correct as she finally hears the motors of another drone. Admittedly she won't hear it if she was joining everybody else at stopping the attack but she knew what she was searching for this entire time. Just a little turn and right there!

Another drone was flying in the guise of the night sky, silently recording everything that had taken place.

She cut it in half before bringing the pieces back to the rooftop. If everything was accounted for, the military should have the remains of the machine at their custody by the end of this mess.

There was still that familiar buzz from the drones motors, it was weaker and yet at the same time clearer.

One left.

She continued moving around the rooftops finally finding the last of the drones. She was still disappointed that they couldn't fight back.

She might as well toy with it as a finale.

She jumped at the drone, blocking the camera with her face sporting a confident grin as they slowly descended. Soon a ring of Shooting Stars surrounded them before closing in as she somersaults to the ground

Behind her an eye catching explosion erupted, everyone around the area should be looking at her direction right now, it doesn’t matter, it's not like her entire life story was hidden to anyone willing to spare a few moments and connections.

"Mission Complete."

What now?
I'm curious as well especially with uncertainty offered by the character creation.
"Consider it done.”

Cristina smiled and disappeared using her tears and began chasing the drone, she was sure that one of its numerous cameras would see her face. Only for a while though as she begins to jump from one tear to another.

Flight is one of the more annoying things she dealt with throughout her career, her ‘flashes’ can only go so far and she had limited uses for it. It is why when she finally reaches one.

She tends to pin them into the ground and ensure that they will never fly again. She even used one of her Shooting Stars for good measure.

She took a look at the now burning piece of metal, shame that it can’t fight back but a job is a job.

She then decided to take a look at the perimeter of the battlefield making sure that whoever may see her won't have the opportunity to intrude her search for other drones, she knows that whoever is behind this can and will want to milk this incident for all it’s worth. And sending a single drone would either be very arrogant or very stupid.

While the former is plausible someone who planned this attack is definitely not the latter.
Cristina stared at the man’s Noble Arms, three years of ceaseless searching looking at every single lead and purposely diving into scams in hopes for a trail that she can follow. Three years of sleepless nights, backbreaking work and thoughts of everything being for naught and the only thing that she will see was her ashes.

All to be trivialized by a stranger’s Noble Arm, that casual defiance of logic and physics that started her hell, now becoming her guide to what she wished from the start.

“Noble Arms are bullshit.” she muttered and laughed as she hid her face and tears before wiping them out.

She kept her face and emotions in control as she watched the video, she could recognize her sister’s original Noble Arm but what’s with that one on her left arm? Her sister has fallen to the Descent and had probably lost her mind.

She gripped her Noble Arm tighter, she doesn’t want to think about the implications.

“Thank you.” Cristina answered as the hologram closed from their sight, she now had a direction but before she could pursue it, she had a contract to fulfill.

“Cristina Bernardino, Freelancer is reporting for duty, give me your orders.” she gave a mock salute, decorum was if things actually became official.

Cristina didn’t expect this development, she was simply prodding the man for more information but it seems he instead got a realization and decided to take things into his own hands. It sucks that her job disintegrated before her eyes but seeing that light in those eyes. It wasn’t that bad.

She then grabbed Cornelio’s hand and whispered, “I hope you haven’t filled your stomach, the first time tends to empty them.”

She swings Sinagtala and immediately dives into the tear, for Cornelio it would be a surreal sight that he won’t even completely comprehend. For her, it was a near perfect copy of the world if only a little darker.

In this place the chains of logic and physics are weaker allowing her to apply vectors on her body and pass through the walls for the brief moment that she could access it. First they landed on a rooftop allowing the two of them to see what was really happening, whatever it is they have a lot of time to escape due to being in infancy. She then silently grabbed Cornelio once more and moved into the imaginary space a few more times.

Eventually they would be out of reach of the players who had never seen them in the first place.

Cristina believes that she had given the old man and herself enough time to breathe. Entering the Imaginary Space multiple times in quick succession was more taxing than battles that she had entereds after all.

“There I believe that I fulfilled the end of my bargain.” she muttered as she stood up from the bench she was sitting at.

“But I don’t need the money I had saved enough over the years when I begin working.” she muttered before the man could say what she assumed was gratitude. “I have something else to ask, you did your assignment before trying to hire me right?”

She gave herself a nervous smile. “If you did, you should know why I’m still here despite that.”

Nobody wants to put their lives on risk after.

“I’ve been spending three long years trying to find her and yet nothing comes up. If you could help me find her, I’m willing to follow any orders you give me.”
