Aki was distracted from her hysteria by the lean frame of a strange entity phasing into her sight. The being looked almost like a... netnavi? After everything she had seen and heard to this point, Aki was sure she had well and truly lost her mind.
—y... Hey! Snap out of it—you're in danger!
Aki stared at the semi-digital creature at a loss for words. Of course she was in danger—that much was clear from the start. But what kind of supernatural force would not only kidnap them from their home, but also shove them inside of some wacko death game? This world seemed to want nothing more than to pile on questions at every turn, and the teen wasn't sure how she would be able handle any more surprises.
Aki opened her mouth to respond, but the glint of green on yellow in the distance caught her eye. And moments later, Suzi's theories were confirmed. A set of viruses were approaching the group on all sides, the most common enemies in the CyberNet. But these were the weakest malware there was by far, the viruses that were used to teach new players the mechanics and waste the time of veterans to the series. And even without any new battlechips or programs, they didn't amount to much more than than a simple pest.
All of these details combined and cemented into one solid fact. They were in a video game, but they all must have still been in some sort of tutorial. With eyes locked on the single shard of the familiar in this foreign world, Aki turned to face the closest pair of helmets.
What are y—No! Don't!
Despite the program's clear warnings, Aki approached the Mettaur.
