[center][h1][color=green]Nyna[/color][/h1][/center] [center][h3]&[/h3][/center] [center][h1][color=red]Yasha[/color][/h1][/center] [hr][sup]Collab with: [@13org] (lol) [/sup][hr] On a matter of minutes, everything would be gone. All the time she spent on Yggdrasil, all the enemies, friends, alliances she made, the guilds she participated... To Ha Yun, games weren't only a pastime... they were part of her life, or better yet, it was her second life. She had not only a guild, but a family there. It was interesting how that started... Initially, she was simply RPing with a group of people, a small guild called "Blades of the Darkmoon". They all loved RPing and PVP, but they didn't wanted to simply be a group of crazy guys slaughtering everyone on sight, nor they wanted to be seen as the "bad guys", so they had the idea of using a concept of another game, the concept of a group that went after those who insulted and harmed innocent players and sometimes clearing dungeon bosses due to their massive single target dps. Putting in other words, they were PKers that hunted PKers. All the contracts were role-played. Even people who weren't that interested in RPing did it when talking to them. After some time, they ended up bonding with each other. Ha Yun knew that she wasn't the only one who felt like that. They felt like a real connection, almost like a real family. If one of them was passing through difficult times in real life, he would only need to log in, and the rest of the group would promptly cheer him up. It was funny... Sad, but funny, how people who never saw each other's face, who didn't knew anything about each other, could have a relationship like that, which was hard to find even in the real world. Ha Yun was losing a family, not only her character. It was agonizing to simply stay there, watching that world which brought her so many happy moments, which made her so happy, on it's final moments. In a few minutes, everything would be gone. Pressing the button to see her friend list, she hovered her finger over each one of the names. Momoji, Hardsicked, L0cust... All of them were already gone. She didn't know if she would ever see them again. [color=green]"It was worth it."[/color] She said, with a smile on her face. [color=green]"Good bye, dear brothers and sisters. It would be good to go hunting once more with you guys. I hope we meet each other again."[/color] She said, closing her friends list and opening the status menu, showing her avatar, it's status and equipment. She still remembered when she was creating it. Nyna. She was really adorable. Ha Yun spent a significant time personalizing it, making it look exactly how she wanted. [color=green]"Yup! No use just standing here feeling down. Yasha won't come... will she? She said something about having to work..."[/color] She said to herself, jumping down the small wall she was sitting on. [color=green]"Well, lets end all this the right way, having fun! Nyna deserves a better farewell than that!"[/color] she said to herself, hopping towards the central plaza. It would be better to maybe go to the center of the city, where all the others were reuniting themselves to say their final farewell to that world. [color=red]"Oh~ If it isn't my favorite little bunny!"[/color] A very familiar voice came from behind her. A beautiful, white haired elf, wearing a dark Japanese kimono appeared from behind the wall she was a second ago. The peculiar figure had a white and blue magic rifle on her back. Nyna only knew one person on Yggdrasil that had that strange build and equipment. It was Yasha. Yasha was also a Blade of the Darkmoon, but differently from Nyna, Yasha accepted only elimination contracts. Her coldness and somewhat cruel behavior when hunting were the reason why her karma was lower than the -50 that was the average for the rest of the guild, instead sitting on -100. That and thanks to some... collateral damage and friendly fire accidents on dungeons and when they were hunting bosses, since some of her attacks can affect a rather big area... The rest of the guild quickly learned to run away when Yasha started casting a stronger spell. [color=green]"Yasha!! You really came!"[/color] Nyna said, jumping on Yasha, hugging her. [color=green]"You said you needed to work, didn't you?"[/color] Nyna asked, still hugging her. [color=red]"Well... I am working ;-P"[/color] she answered. [color=red]"Didn't I said to you that my company was working on making a DMMO? They were inspired by Yggdrasil and it's huge success. Well... I might had some small hand on all this... Mainly convincing them to make a new game for me to play! ;-P"[/color] Yasha said, laughing. While it was true that Akane was supposed to be working, asking the other players about what would they like to see in a new DMMO, she felt like it was terribly inappropriate to do so in that situation. Sure, Akane Hikawa was a businesswoman and had responsibilities towards the company, but Yasha was not. Yasha was a Blade of the Darkmoon, she was a player, and just like every other Yggdrasil player, was there to bid her final farewells to the game in a big party. [color=red]"But today I'm here as Yasha, and not as Akane. I knew you would feel sad if I you were the only guild member online on Yggdrasil's last day. Oh, and before I forget, here's my email. I hope to meet you again in another game."[/color] Yasha said hugging her back and pushing her back a little bit. [color=green]"Sure will do!! I look forward to playing with you again. I was going to the central plaza to have a bit of fun before everything ends, what do you say?"[/color] Nyna asked her, grabbing her hand and enthusiastically pushing her towards the central plaza. [color=green]"And by having some fun I don't mean PvP... So behave yourself, 'kay?"[/color] Nyna said, giggling. [color=red]"Oh, please~! I am an angel... I would never do something like sending a duel invitation to someone in the middle of the plaza and then watch as it desperately searches for me amongst the thousands of other people there..."[/color] Yasha said, laughing. [color=green]"Seriously though, I have something that may help lifting the moods around here."[/color] Yasha said, with a mischievous smile. Getting the Requiem Aeternam from her back and pointing it up, Yasha began casting a spell. Even after owning that rifle for so long, Yasha was still surprised on how such a thing existed... It was able to literally modify all her attacks, even abilities. It was also incredibly surprising on how the game treated it's special abilities. By using an offensive spell and modifying it to be harmless, such as casting Living Magic Artillery Shell with the Encased Shell and Fragmentation modifiers, housing a simple spell like 'flare' and adding a little bit of elemental energy to give it color it would result in a beautiful firework like effect. And it was even possible to use such skill inside safe zones, due to it not causing any damage. [color=red]"Thanks for everything! FAREWELL YGGDRASIL!"[/color] Yasha shouted after the spell finished casting. A noticeable streak of blue greenish mana lightened up the sky, passing just above the central plaza and exploding in a beautiful white and blue firework effect. [color=green]"WHOOOAA!!"[/color] Nyna said, jumping and clapping her hands, amused. [color=green]"I never get tired of seeing that!! It's so pretty!!"[/color] Nyna said, smiling. [color=red]"It's been fun... Everything was so fun. Hunting with you guys, clearing dungeons, farming, the GvGs... The times I killed you accidentally incide dungeons..."[/color] Yasha said, resting her rifle on her shoulders and laughing. [color=red]"Our tale here is ending. This is the final chapter of this story. But I'm sure that there are still a lot of other games where we can write new stories, create new lives for ourselves. Lets go, Nyna. Maybe we can still take a nice screenshot with the other players on the central plaza as a recordation."[/color] Yasha said, smiling. [color=green]"Okay! Lets do a cute pose as well, shall we? :-3"[/color] Nyna replied before calmly walking towards the central plaza. There were only a few minutes left, both Nyna and Yasha were decided to enjoy them. [color=green]"I wish we could save our avatars to use on other games though T__T I really liked this one..."[/color] Nyna said, as they walked towards the other players. [color=red]"SCREENSHOT IN 5...4...3..."[/color] Yasha shouted, holding her rifle in a pose as many other players started forming a line, making their own poses. [color=red]"2...1..." [/color] [u][b][color=6ecff6]"THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!!"[/color][/b][/u] Yasha, Nyna and many other players said together. [color=green]"Hey, Yasha, send me this screenshot by email, kay?"[/color] Nyna said, getting out of her bunny like pose. [color=red]"I'm certainly keeping this one as well."[/color] Yasha said, looking up. It was sad, but Yggdrasil was finally shutting down...
