What do I do now...?

Hikaru wondered and looked around aimlessly.

They'll find me if I'm not careful...But why do they want to find me...?

She frowned and ran from the Chaos Gate, if she stayed there, she would be seen by the ones that were searching for her...to terminate her.

( kyo and urthwyte nodded indicating that they understood what marth had said. Kyo sent an email to a system admin and Urthyte began to walk around town searching for Hikaru and asking people if they had seen her yet.)

Arthur opened the BBS and began to write a new topic:

Hacker Discovered

I met a player in Δ server's root town who could use a shield that I've never seen before-and I've been playing a LONG TIME. I checked it out, and sure enough, noone is supposed to have access to that skill yet. Not only that, but I took a second look using a software I have, and her cheek markings look exactly like Kite's. We all know that dothacker's appearance is impossible to duplicate. So I'm pretty sure this player is editing her data illegally.
Has anyone seen a player like this running around? She's a multiweapon dressed in black, and has silver hair.

After typing in the message, he posted it, and then returned to the game and sent a Flash mail to Kyo: "Have you told your friend what the abomination looks like yet, so he can describe her? If you haven't, let him know that he can get her description from the new post I put on the message board. Anyway, I'm going to wait for a little bit until others have had a chance to respond."

(kyo responded to marth's flash mail)

"yeah he knows don't worry about it"

(Urthwyte continued to ask.)

((Hikaru you should say where you went so we can get the RP moving along)

[marthwmaster]

((Maybe she's alright with us choosing the keywords. I suggest the area name Λ Hidden Mother's Paradise. I know the area doesn't exist in the videogame, but I'm sure more keywords have been added in the 5 years after.))

((She's in Carmina Gardelica, the root town))

[marthwmaster]

Pulling the mouse towards him, Arthur scrolled down the page to read the replies, which were many. Most were vague and useless. He shifted his eyes to the corner of his screen. Almost nine o’ clock. He would be expecting her to call very soon, but he figured there would be time enough to check on some of these rumors. One of them caught his attention:

Yea ive seen her shes in carmina gadelica ur right she does look a bit like kite but i dunno well anyway gl finding her

After putting the FMD back on, he logged in and went to Λ server.

[Kite_2000]

Hikaru twitched, this wasn't good. She could be found any minute...She ran back to the Chaos Gate, and then looked around. She needed to hide...

"but where..."

[marthwmaster]

The music for which Carmina Gadelica was famous flooded Marth's ears as he started picking up clues to the abomination's whereabouts. Whistling to the tune as he strolled down the busy streets, he picked up his staff and held it behind his head, resting it on his shoulders, much the same way a heavy blade would hold her sword.
Finally the wavemaster came to an old mansion. This was where she was said to be located. Then he approached the door, and was about to turn the knob, but then

~"eien sagasu kimi wa utsurigi na yume mibito..."

Arthur pulled off his FMD again and picked up the phone. "Hello? You're ready? Okay, I'm leaving now. Can't wait to see you." He clicked the phone shut and replaced it, then went back into the game as Marth, sending another Flash mail: "Hey Kyo. I'm afraid I must abandon the search temporarily, but I shall return tomorrow morning at the latest (GMT 10:00). I'm in Carmina Gadelica, the rich song of Gael, where the abomination was said to be found. Try and keep her on her toes until the sys admin responds to your message, and good luck."
