[center][h1][color=aqua]Umichi[/color][/h1][/center] Running to the edge of the town, Umichi stopped, looking at the situation calmly. He took a deep breath, the sight before him, unbelievable. Players were stuck outside of town, with monsters swarming over them. It was like the safe zone stopped players from entering as well. [i]What the f***? A new bug? A new glitch? What is happening? No beta player had any of this on the sites. Sh!t![/i] his thoughts panicked. While trying to breath calmly, Suki spoke up to him, [color=f6989d]"What is this?"[/color] She breathed in horror, her suspicions slowly becoming confirmed, she looked to Umichi, terrified, [color=f6989d]"What do we do?"[/color] Taking a deep breath he replied, [color=aqua]"We do whatever we can. Wait here for a quick moment."[/color] His voice seemed calmed, but anxiety was hinted within. People in front of him were inches from death, but panicking now would just make matters worse. Running towards the closest person he could, Umichi reached into a bag and pulled out a teleport crystal. Reaching out, he could make out of the safe zone with his hand, he attempted to pull someone in, but to avail it did not work. Swapping hands, he handed them a teleport crystal. [color=aqua]"Use this teleportation crystal. NOW!"[/color] he ordered, leaving them no room to think. Holding the crystal up, they called out, [b]"Teleport!"[/b]. A bright light appeared, and they disappeared before appearing visibly in the town center. Umichi shouted out with all his might, [color=aqua]"EVERYONE WHO HAS A TELEPORTATION CRYSTAL, USE IT! ANYONE WITH SHIELDS!! FORM A LINE AND PUSH BACK THE MONSTERS!!!"[/color] Taking a deep breath, he turned to Suki. [color=aqua]"Get as many teleportation crystals as possible, not everyone will have one. I am going to pull as many monsters away as possible."[/color] Giving little room for argument, Umichi jumped up and onto someone's shoulder and stepped on people's shoulders to get to the monsters, changing his skill [b]<>[/b] to [b]<>[/b] while he was running. Although Umichi's stats, level and weapon were high enough that he could kill most of the types of enemies with a regular strike, there were far too many to take them all on at once, But if he could just relieve the people enough to buy sometime, then surely that would be enough. Taking one last leap, he charged through the monsters, diving with his [u]Anneal Blade[/u] out in front, stabbing into a couple of wolves. As the wolves shattered, more monsters would appear and be stabbed. Before he could make it to the ground, Umichi was attacked by roots. Unable to dodge, he pulled his arm back, guarding and being flung off. After flying around, swinging the blade, and being flung around some more, he finally landed on the ground. He may have taken care of ten of them, but it was nowhere near enough. He wasn't seriously injured, but his health bar took a decent shock, even though he had guarded most of the attacks. But since he was on solid ground, he would be able to take down more and get hit much less. Slicing through monster after monster, he finally started to get a number of the monsters aggroed to himself. It was probably only about 15-20% of the monsters, but it was still a fairly large amount. Taking distance, he used hit and run tactics to slowly diminish the group he had pulled, and to lose as little health as possible. It was lucky that in the game one's stamina was generally better than in real life, and Umichi had quite a bit of stamina, but even then, he was getting tired as he was finishing off the first group he pulled away, ready to check the rest of the players and monsters. Seeing if he needed to fight more, or if he bought enough time or not.
