"Now Rebecca, just remember whatever happens in there, we love you, now go get'em girl!" Rebecca rolled her eyes as her fathers grandstanding finally came to an end. "And don't think I didn't see that young lady! You might be a teenager now but I can still ground you!" She stuck her tongue out at him and a wide grin plastered itself on his face. Now it was her mothers turn, less of the pep talk with her mum, they hugged it out for a moment in which she leaned in to whisper in Rebecca's ear. "Good luck hun, you'll do us proud" Uncharacteristically her mother had a few tears in her eyes. Rebecca, taken in by the atmosphere gave her mum a final squeeze and let go. "I'll be top of the leaderboards with in a year! Don't worry about me!" She grabbed the package that had arrived in the post and ran upstairs. Her parents watched in silence, once the surprisingly loud sound of their daughter running upstairs had ceased they gave each other a worried glance. Rebecca lay on the bed in her tiny pocket room, the room was small but the space was all hers, which more than made up for its size. She took a deep breath and mentally prepared herself, this would be her first time into DGO, if she could do well, if she could break records then she'd have everything, money, a career, whatever she wanted! She could see the world outside the estate! She followed that daydream for a while, imagining all the new and crazy places she would visit. Eventually she came back to reality and tense with expectation she closed her eyes and focused trying to find the network that would take her into DGO. At first she couldnt sense anything, everything felt normal and normal up until now didn't involve DGO, as the first feelings of doubt began to creep into her mind she felt it. [center] 3 2 1 [/center] She opened her eyes, spread out before her was a city the like of which she had never seen before, a thick mist filled every street and people armed with swords and staffs, axes and hammers strolled casually by. She might have stood there gawking for hours had not a message appeared in the air above her head. [hr] [h1][u][center][b]Welcome, Havoc[/b][/center][/u][/h1] [hr] A huge grin gripped her face as she took in the name... her name. 'Havoc' What a name! After she'd calmed down she remembered the interface, if she remembered correctly you just had to... yep there we go. A small panel opened up by her hand and she scrolled down it looking at all the menus. The first tab she opened was simply labelled 'Havoc', in-front of her a hologram of a darkhaired woman with some crazy cape and a huge sword appeared. "This is..." She reached behind her and felt the fluttering cape. She almost jumped on the spot, so excited was she. "I'm a bad-ass!" She immediately regretted her outburst as several people turned to look at her, her cheeks went red and she stared at the floor until she was sure they'd moved on. Next she looked at the 'Skills' Menu, after examining it and discovering that she was a Warrior class she expanded a sub-tab named 'Abilities' and discovered her first ability. [i]Refraction(Passive): 11% of damage dealt to Havoc is dealt to all enemies engaged with Havoc. i.e Havoc takes 100 Damage, an AoE 11 damage nuke is applied around Havoc. [/i] She nodded along as she read. "alright.." She was distracted from her musings as a small ping sounded and a tab named 'Inbox' flashed yellow. She clicked onto it and discovered she had a new message! She wondered who would be sending her a message so soon as she opened the message. The Black king recruiting... did she dare join such a notorious guild? She sat down and leaned on her elbows, again she drew odd looks from the passing crowd but this time she didn't take notice, so deep in thought was she. She couldn't just be a member of the herd, she had to stand out, had to win but how could she do that? The Black king recruiting.. surely this was the beginning of grand events and where else to stand out than at such events? But which side to choose? In the end her decision was made not by her own decisions but by her parents, they had joined the 'normal' guilds and it had gotten them nowhere, time to take a risk, who dares wins and all that. With a movement so sudden it belayed the thought put into it she pressed reply. [hr] Level: 1 EXP: 0 Next Level EXP: 10,000 [hr]
