"Wow... She won again!" Rin said in awe, eyes wide. She looked back to Uraki, who nodded at her.
Rin jumped up suddenly, as though this simple gesture was an electric shock.
"Oh no! It's you match next!" She cried, looking extremely anxious, as though she were the one about to fight, "Oh no! Are you alright?! You're facing a Brandish and you're a Harvest. Brandish use really powerful attacks, right? And Harvests only have light armour like mine, right? Oh no..." She held her hands up nervously to her chin, her wolf tailing swining back and forth anxiously.
"Alright..." she sighed, calming down and stiting back in seat, "Well... good luck! I'll be cheering you on!" she cried cheerfully, beaming at Uraki.

"Thank you," Uraki said and smiled at Rin, then exited the stands of the Arena. She went downstairs and headed into the Waiting Room. She sighed deeply and sat down on the seats provided within the room. She closed her eyes and sighed again. She opened slowly, to find herself in a pitch black area.
Uraki frowned and swuinted again, she saw the silouhette of a figure, once again, outlined in bright red light. The light grew stronger, then finally, Uraki saw the person that she had seen before. It was a black and white armoured Player with silver hair and glowing red eyes. "Who are--" Uraki began, but then the person's features were covered in a red light. She seemed to have molded into some sort of red sphere, then the sphere of light charged straight at Uraki.
Uraki gasped and found herself in the Waiting Room again. A window popped up in front of her face saying:
You have learnt the new skill: TWILIGHT MODE
Uraki frowned and raised an eyebrow, then went into her skills list to find the ability Twilight Mode. She scrolled her cursor over it to see what it did, but this was all that popped up:
1\+3*/;aj/~237+\!
It looked like things were going strange again...

That power..
Zero had noticed a strange thing among the graphics, the world had attempted to nearly fade and yet it stopped. Something had happened and yet he couldn't see it, he was close..yet it hd slipped him, and then she had beaten Dex..a impossible victory.
" Something happened didn't it? " He asked out loud, talking to himself as he looked downwards at the victor; Nephilim.
Perhaps..seems she's struggling..
Struggling? Against what? He stared down at her, the sense of being abondoned growing every second as he sighed and turned to the side. " You're not gonna tell me are you? " He said.
No
How useless, even when he's helping he didn't get any information. Yet, he was interested in her newfound power..this is just the beginning.
" Perhaps..this..is more than just a simple tournament.. " He whispered, the AIDA floating in his hand as it gave off a whaling sound, the same sound ANNA had, yet to him it sounded like a scream..a definite scream he could identify..but he had lost his memories for the moment.

"Now THERE'S a surprising turn of events." Chaos says calmly looking at this upset. "She's quite a few levels below him... but yet she beats him... WITHOUT a weapon..." He says before he stops himself short and thinks to himself, "She has to be a hacker... there's no other logical explanation."
"So... who do you think will win the next fight? Uraki or Nephillim?" Chaos asked Xurik.

_____________________________________________________________
Dark Room
It was silent for a little while. The only noise that could be heard was the sound of the fight coming from the screen, that bearly lit up half of the room.
The man continued to watch over the fight, completely focused on what was occuring. He even began to feel tired and doubted much information would even be gained through the program they set around the arena.
Then...
"What?" The man asked himself in disbelief. Then he smiled slowly and grined. "So....this is what she meant."
The screen became distorted for a little while. Nephilim and Dex were bearly visible. Then when the screen began to work again, the man was surprised to see Dex lying on the ground, defeated.
"That power.....it has awakened."
He saw as both players were transported away from the arena.
===
Just then, the steamgunner from before appeares beside the man on the chair. "We got some....odd data from that character just now."
"What kind of data?" , "We can't seem to decifer it, but it does look suspicious. I don't think she used a hack though. No...it must have been something else."
The man closed his eyes. "I see..."
"We are also trying to figure out if Dex'es sudden loss was due to Nephilim's outbreak of abnormal data."
The man did not respond after that and watched the screen again.
"I'll return when we collect more data, Sir." He said and vanished into the darkness.
____________________________________________________________
Arena (Lumina Cross)
Glace watched in shock as both players vanished from the arena, meaning the battle was over. He stood there for a few seconds making sense of what had just occured.
Wait a sec-....how...was that...possible?
Other players around him were asking the same question. Some even said it was a hack.
"No...I know Nephilim. She wouldn't cheat. Especially if she fighting a friend. Shes not...like that."
But then....what DID happen? All I can remember is Dex rushing towards Nephilim and then.....and then Dex fell. Glace looked down and quickly grew concerned. Hm....whatever happened...I think we'll find out soon enough. Glace thought and looked up at the screen again. Something odd was definetly going on and Glace, as much as everyone else here, wanted to find out exactly what.
Glace sighed and realized Dex would soon be making his way back. Then he'd tell Glace what really happened, that is, if even he knew.

Dex had left the waiting room and walked to the stands where everyone else was sitting.
...how?...That thought just kept repeating itself in Dex's head.
He randomly sat down in a seat and was getting strange looks from the players around him.
Well might as well watch the next fight...see what happens.

Ao's lower lip departed from the upper while his eyes flickered a bit wider as if trying to take in everything that occured in the last second.
"S-such speed." He caught his voice in his throat and stopped his shock dead. Never had he seen a man or woman, high level or not, move with such an elegance. Such a grace. Such a terrifying flash of power. In that moment, that single attack Ao loved her.. And hated her. Such a move, was it illegal? No, Ao struck the thought from his mind immediatly. It was too cunning for some common hacker to perform. This was something more.. Something higher. Ao knew he had to meet her, if only to catch a glimpse of what made her like this.. It was almost as if she was the personification of his quest. Yes, that would be it.. This woman would be his first step.
"I need to meet her.." But how? His outer and inner dialouge meshed into singular fluid thought. "How...?"

Nephilim paced the waiting, deep in thought about not only what she'd apparently done to Dex, but as to what had happened the moment she'd got into the room...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~5 minutes earlier~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nephilim gated into the room and sighed. "What did I do back there..? All I remember is pain and then that sound... Was it a glitch? And why can't I remember what happened?!" She stopped pacing now. "WHAT DID I DO!?!?" She yelled angrily. The room went black at the same time the "A" note sounded. Her eyes went wide and she looked around fearfully at first. She turned to figure two figures. Both stood together, each having three wings on one side of their bodies. Both stood featureless; The left one solid white and the right one nearly invisible as it was pitch black. "What are you?"
"..." Both raised a hand at her and two balls of...something formed at their hands. Nephilim started to back away and to run as the ball grew to the size of her chest. But then, just where would she run to? She was still surrounded by a void of black with nowhere to go. She watched as they fired them and both hit her, encasing her and bringing her low levels of pain. Her body ached as streams of data flew from the two into her character before the sphere absorbed into her. The figured faded and the moment she touched the ground she was back in the room.
She looked at herself and the room. "What?"
"What are these? I can't use most of them. And what does it mean, 'Can't be activated in with current form?' This is getting weirder by the minute..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She knew it was useless to worry over it now. She had two new attacks she could use and equipped them to her skill trigger for later use. A look at the board showed her to be nearly 4x the level of Uragi, her friend and next foe. As if to worsen things, Uraki was a Harvester against a Brandish. That in itself was a bad match-up. "I can't see how I can lose. But, since I beat someone I should have lost to, I'm not taking any changes." Her first order of business was to customize her weapons and armor in preparation as she waited for the match to begin.

Applegate smiled at the forever setting sun infront of him remain still. 'This place... will never change, huh?' Echoed through my mind. 'My parents death... what happened that day?' I thought back to the moment I saw the wreck. 'Mother? Father? Brother? They were all dead. All my fault... If I hadve told my sister to bring the car in for breaks... none of this would have happened.' I felt a tear shed in real life as did Applegate in-game. Emotional break downs like this were common for me when i played the world, because it was my brother that forced me to start playing. I felt my sadness grow to anger. 'Who... Where... When... This was so stupid. Why was I crying... I couldnt change the past now could I? Maybe this was destiny, but if it was... why was mrs. destiny so cruel to me...'
I held my hand against my sword open handed as I was pulled towards the sun. 'It was so attractive... just like this.'

Uraki sighed and looked at the swirling gate which teleported a Player to the platform. "Here goes nothing..." she said quietly to herself and disappeared in a flurry of light green rings. Her screen went blank for a moment with text on the bottom right hand corner of her screen with the words 'The World'R:2 in blue.
Suddenly, the darkness disappeared and Uraki found herself on the Arena Platform. She drew her staff and gripped it tightly with her hands. She inhaled deeply, then exhaled. She was getting nervous and her head was hurting again. She knew she would be defeated easily...but she knew, even so: she had to try.
The cheers and murmurs of the crowd echoed around her as she waited for Nephilim to appear.
-In the Stands-
"Hey...is that...a Harvest?!"
"What the hell is a Harvest doing fighting a Brandish?"
"She's gonna get PWNed!"
"Haha, that kid thinks she stands a chance?"
"Level 21?! Is this some kind of a joke?"
"Talk about a one hit KO this is gonna be."
"This is gonna end faster than the second match!"
"Wow...she entered this event thinking she could win?"
The conversations between different Players all filled the Arena. It seemed the Players were surprised that such a low level Player-a Harvest at that, had 'entered' the event.

Rin jumped up as Uraki appeared on the arena platform. She once again stood on tip-toe, leaning over the edge of the stands to get a better view.
The crowd suddenly burst with the sounds of people muttering about the Uraki. How could a level 21 Harvest win against a level 45 Brandish? They were all talking about how she would deffinately loose.
Rin turned around and glared at group of players, who were laughing about the situation.
"Well what makes you think she won't win?!" the tiny Multi-Weapon asked them angrily, though she was shaking as she said it, still feeling shy.
She turned around again and leant back over the edge.
"Uraki-san! Do your best! You can do it!" she called loudly, hoping her small voice could be heard over the jeers of the other players.

Nephilim looked up and concluded the things she was doing. Her weapon customization was complete and ready to screw Uraki. She didn't have the things to make the armor she wanted, but that would just have to do. She made one final glance over her stuff and moved to the swirling gate that would take her to the platform.
Soon, Nephilim found herself looking directly at Uraki and pulled out her weapon. It wasn't the large axe from before, but was a large Falchion-like blade though still the same attack type. Concentrate! I have no change of losing.... So why do I feel so worried? It's not as if Uraki could smite me in one shot. She shook off the feeling and looked once more to her friend. "Hello, Uraki. It's been three months, Though I must say that wasn't expecting to see you again like this." Nephilim smiled and readied her weapon. "This weapon isn't merciful. If you survive the first shot, you'll be Poisoned and Cursed. I don't have to say what will happen after that. Good luck, Uraki. I'm sorry I can't be merciful to you."
The moment the match started Nephilim was running across the arena and swinging the first blow.

Uraki had no time to respond to anything. Before she knew it, she saw Nephilim charging towards her with a large weapon. Her eyes widened, she knew she had to dodge or run or anything...but she couldn't move.
=-=-=-=-=-=-
The girl was shaking as she held her controller. Her mouth was slightly open and sweat trickled down the side of her head. She suddenly jerked to the right and moved with her controller.
=-=-=-=-=-=-
Uraki jumped to the right, just being missed getting hit by the massive weapon in Nephilim's hands. But even so, she was grazed and already, her HP had dropped to 17. She twitched and cast Ap Do on herself to become quicker. She was Poisoned and Cursed, just as Nephilim told her she would be...but, almost within a split second, Uraki had used a healing spell on herself and her HP rose to the normal level, then straight after that, she cured herself of her status allignments.
Nephilim readied her weapon once more and pointed it at Uraki. "You can't get attacked, then run and heal forever, Uraki. This is going to end now!" She shouted and charged at the Harvest, her weapon pointed straight in Uraki's direction.
Uraki panicked, Nephilim was right. She couldn't continue like this, but nor could she give up. Uraki jumped to the side again, then opened her skills window.
Something...anything...give me something I can fight with...!!
Uraki's new skill caught her eye. She didn't hesitate to scroll her cursor over it and click it. During this small amount of time, Nephilim had already charged at Uraki once again and her weapon nearly made contact with Uraki's character body...
Twilight Mode: Activated
Suddenly, a huge explosion of light sent Nephilim flying backwards, to the other side of the Arena. A sphere of crimson light had engulfed the small Harvest and was spinning around her. There was another flash of light, this time, it was bright crimson. A glowing figure stood where Uraki once was, light covered the figure's body, so it's features were unseen.
The figure looked like it was drawing something from behind itself, then it swung it's arm and the glowing lights around it fell off it into small spheres and faded. The figure was a tall, black and white clad female. She had shoulder length silver hair with a fringe that covered her right eye and her left eye glowed bright red.
The figure held a scythe in her right hand, but it was like nothing Nephilim had seen before. It was a weapon that probably didn't even exist in the game. Mumbles and murmurs of Players filled the Arena, the battle was disturbed by this new person's entrance.
Suddenly, the screen closed in onto the female and displayed her information.
Challenger Name: Hikaru
Level 133
Multi Weapon
"I hope you are prepared, Nephilim. For you...are now my opponent," Hikaru said in a clear, yet dark voice that echoed through the whole Arena. She gripped her scythe and prepared to defend and attack.
From the expression of the strange Player who was now known as Hikaru, Nephilim knew she wasn't joking around. But even so, there were too many questions to ask for this battle to continue as smoothly as it would. What was going on?

From the expression of the strange Player who was now known as Hikaru, Nephilim knew she wasn't joking around. But even so, there were too many questions to ask for this battle to continue as smoothly as it would. What was going on?

He had watched the unusual pair up and wondered himself how a harvest would fair up against a brandish..not to mention to level difference. " It's too vast..she'll lose.. " He whispered, knowing the outcome as fast as everybody else.
The seed is sprouting..it was so small back then
Seed? What was the AIDA talking about? Zero looked down at Uraki, wondering about her past history. He had realized something them, AIDA had overtaken her before..he remembered now..the AIDA had seen everything inside of her. " Then that means.. " He had watched the battle start, suddenly growing interested as he took steps forward and watched intently.
Once the abttle started, everything seemed calm and normal..Uraki was knocked and healed herself. She was gonna lose this one badly and nothing could save her..
Something within Zero had pulsed, the skill Uraki had used changed everything. The wind that was blowing his cloak had stopped, then went the opposite direction..the code within the game had suddenly been changed.
Once the transformation had happened to Uraki, everybody was in the same state; shocked..even Zero had been supprised by the sudden turn in the battle.
" Is this a joke!? What happened to Uraki! "
" Did she hack her character!? "
" That's not fair! "
The shouts and complains from the players increased, they had started booing the battle at the level difference between the 2 players and what had happened.
Such a beautiful rose..growing amongst the corpses
Zero had wondered what to do, the sudden skill she had used to cause this. He'd have to report to 'Him' later on but, for now he only wanted to watch the battle. He wouldn't interfere yet.
" How's the angel going to react..? " He whispered, looking over at Nephilim.

"Hmmm. . . what was that?" the dark knight speaks, looking over his right shoulder. Completely ignoring the PKK who was struggling to get free from his grip around his neck.
A sudden wave of powerful energy had just passed by and Myraaddel felt it like a huge gust of wind in a storm. What really got the Brandish's attention was the fact the source of this power was nearly as strong as him. But that was impossible, no one was as strong as him. There's not a player alive who can come close to him.
'Unless. . .' Myraaddel thought as a sinister grin comes across his lips. "URAKI!!"
His fingers come together and crush the player's neck. Myraaddel drops the body and doesn't bother to infect it with an AIDA. That didn't matter to the dark knight now.
He turns around to the direction where he detected the source. This had to be Uraki, there wasn't any other person who could contain this power. But just how exactly did she get this power? The bracelet. . . no it doesn't contain energy at this magnitude. An AIDA maybe? But he doesn't remember infecting her with it, so how did obtain this power?
There was only one way to find out, and standing here wasn't helping.
"I've finally found you. . . ."

"What?! No way!"
"How'd she do that?!"
"Hey! Whats going on?"
Several players had gathered behind and infront of glace, all starring up at the screen as the battle went on.
"I can't....believe it...." Glace whispered to himself and took a step back. Who is she? And where did Uraki go? He thought and gulped.
Glace began to shake a little and noticed his hands were starting to gather with sweat while they gripped the controller. He knew this entire tournament didn't make even the slighest of sense possible. Why was it held? Why chose three people from the LOCKED inccident? Why did Nephilm win Dex and....and what happened to Uraki?
All these questions rushed in inside Glace'es mind. It made his head hurt and he inhaled and exhaled to calm himself. He knew something was going on.
Only the ones who opened this event know the answers.Glace thought. Only the system administrators. Only they know.
Glace focused in the fight, anxious to find out what was going to happen next.

"Hikaru...."
That name echoed inside the man's mind for several seconds. There was something about her that caught his attention. Something else rather than her appearance being an act of a possible hack or some other illegal action. Something about that girl made the man feel....cold. He almost felt like he had already known her for a really long time.
Immediatly, a blade brandier appeared from within the darkness and walked up besides the man. He had a faint smile on his face.
"Unbeleivable....." he said. "To think that we could obtain so much information with this one event. Ha! It was almost too easy."
The man slightly frowned. "Too easy is correct. However, I doubt this is all there is to it. I'm thinking....this is only the beginning."
"True."
Both stayed quiet for a while, waiting to see what Nephilim's next action would be.
"What data have you gathered on this....Hikaru?" The man asked.
"Hm? Well, not much, Sir. Her entire data structure is as strange as Nephilim's sudden outbreak of data. In fact, we are suspecting that there has to be a connection between them. Uraki and Nephilim. Both their characters hold data that is undeciferable at the moment. However....if Uraki was able to change her character data....maybe Nephilim might also be able to change her character data. But....besides that, nothing we can be certain of."
"I see....hm.....well, you should start to prepare yourself. Your going up against one of them in the final round.....then you'll have to activate the program to it's fullest. Then we can gather even more data on either Nephilim....or Uraki's Hikaru."
"Y-yes.....of course."
The blade brandier turned and paused for a moment, almost as if he wanted to say something, but he said nothing and continued into the darkness.
The man positioned himself better on his seat and watched the screen again.
"How'd she do that?!"

"Hikaru...?"
Like everyone else in the stadium, Ao was stunned. That Uraki.. Was the Harvest just an outer shell over this Multiweapon? Some sly trick of a dirty hacker that just wanted to win the event? If so.. Then why weren't the Admins stopping it? If this was such a huge event of The World, one would think the higher ups would have been watching.
No... Something else was going on. The Brandish and now this Multiweapon. This wasn't just a normal tournament, Ao knew that. These people were gathered together for a specific reason... But what? Such strong people in one small area, but it was also in the wide open so nothing too crucial could happen, right? .. Wait, was that it? Was the answer this simple...
"It's a cage...?" Ao couldn't tell if his voice had even carried over the awe-struck spectators, not like he even noticed though. "It's just a large cage.. And they're nothing but lab rats." Ao found himself looking deeply into the screen in front of him. "They just walked in completly oblivious.. These players are being tested, maybe even forced to bring out these powers.. And now that they have.. Will the latch on their cage come crashing down...?"
He found his eyes wondering higher now, to the black sky dotted in white. "... What's going on, I wonder..."

Like the many other spectators in the stands, Dex was watching the match with interest.
"Hikaru?...So this must be Uraki's true power. This is interesting."
Some where nearby he heard a player reveal his own thoughts.
"Hmm, lab rats huh? Sorta makes sense, but I doubt whoever's held this tournament is experimenting own Uraki and Nephlim, no....they had to have had this power before and fighting each of us has revealed it...but I wonder why whoever did this wanted that."
