[I'll take over Demortayse now...as nobody has control over the real world and cannot see what's going on]
Demortayse (
well, I'm not roleplaying him that long...so we'll just leave him with his username) had logged out in quite a hurry after being informed by a moderator about the status of his friend Mesmer. He got his bicycle out of his garage and quickly cycled over to Mesmer's home. What he saw wasn't good at all. The door had been knocked down. The glass that had been in it was all over the ground. Careful not to cut himself, he rushed into the main room and found nobody. In fact, in the thorough search of the house, he found no trace at all of Mesmer. He even looked in the refrigerator. He was leaving the house when something in the living room caught his eye. It was some components for some device. On closer inspection, he discovered that it was a part of a simulator helmet. Nearby, there was a bat lying in a small almost miniscule pool of blood.
Shuddering, he left the house quickly. When he was safe at home again, he called the police and reported a possible kidnapping. He was just about to log back onto Interface to contact the moderator when he heard a sound coming from the front door. As he reached it, the door burst open and standing there was somebody holding a knife. Faster than he could see, the knifepoint was at his throat.
The person said angrily, "How did you know about the user Mesmer's accident?"
Demortayse gulped and said, "A moderator told me."
The person asked, "You're the user Demortayse, right?"
He asked, "How would you know something like that?"
The person smiled menacingly and said, "I hacked into his character profile and from there, hacked into those of all of the people on the friend's list. From there on, I needed only the names and ages and other sorts to access the world database."
"Whyare you doing this?"
"Mesmer saw something something he shouldn't have on Interface. He may have told somebody. I can't be certain..."
Demortayse said, "Well, I don't know anything about it."
The person continued, "Better safe than sorry...I've sent an assassin after that character Sungiver the Appraiser. It won't be long before Mesmer and all his friends are dead. Oh and I'll let you see your friend one last time. GRIST!"
Another man appeared with an unconscious body. It must have been Mesmer. Thinking quickly, Demortayse began backing away to where he knew he kept a metal staff.
The first person shifted his attention back to Demortayse and asked suspiciously, "What do you think you're doing?"
Then he lunged with the knife. Demortayse barely managed to reach the staff in time and club the knife wielder. The other man growled and pulled out a gun, while holding Mesmer in the other arm. Suddenly, Mesmer's arm shot up and connected with the man's chin. The man sank to the floor as did Mesmer. Demortayse wondered if it had just been something in the game that triggered it because on further investigation, Mesmer was still unconscious.
He had to get to a safe place to log back into Interface and warn Sungiver. However, he had to contact all of Mesmer's other friends too. They were all in danger. There was a safe uploading link at an Interface administration building downtown. He knew he couldn't get there riding the bicycle. Glancing down, he noticed a set of keys by the knife wielder. He smiled, picked them up, and walked outside, trying to carry Mesmer.
About an hour later, he was there. He explained the situation to some of the security guards and later the manager of the building and got access to one of the safety room loading points.
Minutes later, he was back in the Interface moderation agency. He rushed into Agrioth's office and she looked up at him.
"So?"
"I need to contact Sungiver now. Somebody's trying to kill all of Mesmer's friends."
"What? That's not possible! Not unless, they hacked in...Oh no...that was the breach in security yesterday. This isn't good."
"Of course it isn't. Let's go!"
"Right."
Agrioth put a hand on Demortayse and said, "I doubt I should be doing this but....this is a special circumstance."
Then, they teleported back to Sungiver's castle.
Demortayse said, "I found Mesmer. He's alive...barely. I also found out, somebody's been hired to kill you Sungiver...in the real world."
[oh my gosh this is long...X.x If I need to change something...do tell...]
