@Tracyarmav@KatherinWinter Sorry for the very, very late response. I've had another family problem pop up, and it needed to be dealt with. I will make sure to join in once Halloween has passed! :D

@Cat

Sorry you had crap to deal with, but that's life... *shrugs* welcome back!

EDIT: Okay, dinning room massacre set for T minus five... and counting. >:D

Side Quest - Sword Art Online

Cin grinned nodding an looking around for a new target. Instead he saw another group of players running along farming the path... and osik, this time their was someone else on the path. A hooded figure hurrying to get to the next town before dark, oblivious to the group approaching from behind. Cin Vhetin snarls as the group closes around the lone figure, clearly bullying the player. They hadn't noticed Cin or Tsu, standing just inside the trees to side of the path on a slight rise. Cin hated bullies, and this time he could finally fight back, and it looked like these chumps were a couple levels behind him and Tsu anyway, so the six of them wouldn't be that much hassle right? He glances at Tsu, looking for the signal to jump the group.

We can take these punks, you with me?

Cin charges forward just behind Tsu, and to his left, slamming the Halberd's ax head down into the monster before jabbing it with the spear tip, in a short combo that nicked a large chunk of the monster's health away. Cin then darted back as the monster turned to face him, and swing at him with sharp claws. Tumbling into a backwards roll down the slight slope, Cin stayed just out of reach, and manged to come up back on his feet swinging his massive weapon around for another strike at the monster should it follow him down slope. His health bar was nearly full again by now, clearly his investment in the Con stat was paying off, as was the Str investments, allowing him to wield such a hefty weapon with relative ease. Cin loved the rush of adrenaline that came with every fight and the high that came from besting yet another monster. Having Tsu here served to further boost his confidence, and serve as a safety net of sorts, allowing Cin to play a little more recklessly than he might otherwise dare to play.

"Yeah, I can't use it, and I need the pots way more than I need the cash, so it yours mate."

I move the item from my inventory, sending it to Tsu and accepting the four health pots. I consider popping one now, but now that we're working together I'm confident enough that I decide to save them in case I really need them. I look around and see more mobs spawning and mark one, indicating I was ready to go when you were, though I wait in case you wanted to try the shield on or something. I grin eagerly and ready my Halberd to strike, but watch you, ready to let you take the lead on this attack. You had demonstrated that you knew how to read the monsters better than I did, so I was content to follow your lead in combat.

@Yunagi Ouch, that's a pretty rough day. Take your time, your post quality more than makes up for any delay in its arrival.

By show of raised appendage, who wants to slaughter the guards as demonstration of skills attained? (and maybe to be a douche to Vlad)

Animal Army

grr, okay it's just kinda annoying... Where on the map are we then?

Animal Army

@Kryosky First post has a map. None of the rooms are labeled correctly but the lay out is what the facility would be.
@Tracyarmav There would be ten guards in the room.

@KatherinWinter

umm, that map isn't legible for me, is it just my browser being stupid again?

"Hahaha, you might say that. I got a little cocky and picked a fight with a monster three levels higher than me. It was close, but I beat it. And I'm about to open the loot box to see what it dropped.

I select the loot box and am somewhat disappointed, as I receive only a single item. Even worse, it's a shield. I can't use those unless I switch to some tiny little toy of a weapon, and I wasn't about to do that. I'd really come to love my Halberd, though I'd need a new one in a few more levels. Sighing dejectedly I offer the shield to you, since I can't use it. I don't notice that it is a rare item, never having seen one before, but even if I had noticed I'd still give it to you if you wanted it.

Awww, it's just a shield. I can't even use those... Hey Tsu can you use this? I'll trade you a potion or two, I kinda had to burn my last three on killing this monster.

Cin admit's sheepishly. He had been hoping to get some really good boots or gloves but he figured if Tsu could use the shield it'd be worth the three potions it took to kill the monster, and he did still have the very nice experience reward from the kill. Cin hadn't given much thought to what to do when Tsu arrived, but he wanted to continue leveling and working towards the boss and the next level of SAO. It probably wouldn't hurt to find a few more team mates along the way either. Thoughts of tomorrow stirred in his sub consciousness but or now only now resided in the focus of his mind.
