"Muriel!" Smoer turned her head. Lisa ran to her. "Mind that I come this afternoon to finish our project?" "Sure, come when you want." "Cool! I'll get some lunch, take my stuff and come to you then." Smoer smiled and drove away with her bike. When she arrived at home she ran upstairs and put her computer on. Flyff opened. David her eyes looked into hers. "Good afternoon." said David. Smoer blushed. Then she shaked her head. David was an online character, nothing more. "I'll be offline this afternoon." said Smoer. "Working at that project again?" asked David. Smoer nodded. "It's the last time, we should be finished after today." "At what hour is that classmate coming?" asked David. "I... don't really know. She said she'd get lunch and come." David took Smoer her hand. "Time enough to take a short walk then." David and Smoer walked over the hills of Azria. They talked about everything that came up in their minds. Again, Smoer felt great. David was great to talk with. She felt finaly a sort of... happiness. Smoer smiled and let the sun light her face. Sudden the doorbell rang. "David, I think my classmate arrived." She heared her mom opening the door and then she heared someone walking on the stairs. Smoer realised that she didn't had time to close Flyff before Lisa came in her room. "I'm on follow. I can't close Flyff anymore." said Smoer fast, then she turned off the screen. On that moment Lisa came in her room. "Hi!" said Lisa. Smoer felt relieved. Lisa didn't see what she was doing on the computer. Smoer didn't know why she wanted to hide that she played Flyff, but it felt better to hide it. Smoer left her computer and worked on the project with Lisa. The afternoon passed fast, and the project got finished. "Muriel, maybe we can add some extra information, like funny facts, at the end of our project. It's not dinnertime yet so I can stay a bit longer." "How will we find that extra information?" asked Smoer. "I'm sure we'll find something on the internet. Mind that I use your computer?" Smoer hesistated. "Well..." Lisa got up and walked to Smoer her pc. Then she put the screen on. Smoer hold her breath. "Cool." said Lisa. "Flyff isn't it? I play that game too!" Smoer looked surprised to Lisa. "Really?" Lisa laughed "Yes!" Sudden she hesistated. "Weird... I know Infinty too." Lisa put herself down. "And the others who walk around there..." Smoer came closer to the computer. Lisa turned quiet. "Y-you... You are Smoer?" asked Lisa quiet.
Smoer was quiet for a while. Sudden all puzzlepieces came on their place. Every afternoon that she was offline, Neocro was gone for schoolwork too. Neocro always came back 5 minutes after Lisa left Smoer her house. "Neocro..." murmeled Smoer. The two girls looked to eachother, both a bit confused. Sudden Lisa started to laugh. "Well, what a coincidence." smoer didn't know how to react. Neocro, a girl who she has been friend with for a long time in this game, was someone from her class. Someone where she has spended alot afternoons with, working on a project, without knowing who her true self was.
Neocro appeared on the hill. Smoer saw her but turned her head. Everyone greeted Neocro, except Smoer. "Smoer, Neocro is there!" said MrBored when he noticed Smoer didn't great Neocro. "I know..." said Smoer. She looked to Smoer and the two girls started to smile. "I met her already today." The others didn't get what was going on. It didn't look like the girls were goingt to tell it either. "Let's keep it secret for a while." said Neocro when she left. Smoer agreed with her. It was already a secret for so long, there was no need to tell it yet. Neocro started to train, like all the other members of Twilight Dentifrice. Lari didn't say any word about going to Ghosts of the forgotten Princes. Sven decided to take that job for him. "When are we going to the Princes?" complained he. "There is no hurry, Sven." said MrBored calm. "This monsters still give alot experience." "I'm just tired of this place, we've been here already for so long." "And you'll spend even a longer time at Princes." said Toro who sat aside. Sven groaned. "I didn't know that the path to be a True Hero was that boring." Toro laughed. "That's what you make from it." "Hi David," said Neocro. "Tell us more about your past. That makes the training less boring." David nodded.
Laola walked unsure to David, scared to scare David again. "David... I'm a Hamba." David took a deep breath. He had an idea from what was coming. "Hambas have alot tasks on earth. If they don't complete them, they can't turn into a real God." Laola hesistated. "One of those tasks is... to help a younger Hamba." David shook his head. The part that was coming was the part he didn't want to hear. "I found you, David. A young Hamba that needs help. You need a teacher and... I need you." David closed his eyes and shook his head even heavyer. "I'm not a Hamba!" screamed David. Laola sighted. "I'm going to be a Hero, a True Hero! Just like Souleater!" "David... You're chosen to be a God. Take that chance." tried Laola. "No!" screamed David. "I want to be a Hero!" "But you can't..." said Souleater. David turned his head to Souleater. "What do you mean with that?" Souleater stared into the fire. "Like Heroes can't be Gods, Hambas can't be True Heroes..." "You are lieing!" shouted David. "Laola, tell him he's lieing!" "He found it out himself. He wants to be a Hamba." David looked to Souleater and Laola. "Why are you doing this to me?" asked David. "We're just telling you the truth, David." said Laola. "There is nothing to change about this. You'll be a God and Souleater will be a True Hero. Fate has chosen that." David sighted. So he was a Hamba, he'd never be a True Hero. "What now?" said David after a while. "Let me teach you, David." David sighted.
"You story doesn't motivate the training." said Sven. Lari glared at him. "I got another way to make you train slower." A net appeared out of her sword and landed over Sven. Sven sweared. "Want to see my Asal?" Lari laughed. "Try first to come here." Smoer smiled. It took Lari just one day to recover from the storm. She was back the old one now, except that she didn't complain anymore about going to Princes. Smoer looked to David. He sat near Toro now, staring to the ground. Smoer sighted. David told them something right now that he never told them before. He doesn't, or didn't, want to be a God. He wants to be a True Hero, like they all want. And now she also understooth why he told her that she was a Hamba. He needed to find a young Hamba, to teach. For once Smoer wished she wàs a Hamba, so she could help him. But deep in her heart she knew she wasn't. She never did unexpected high dammage. She also never fainted. The only thing that could link her to a Hamba was the fact that she knew alot. But that was cause she liked to read, and learn. Sudden she felt like someone was looking to her. When Smoer turned around she saw Neocro. As soon Neocro saw that Smoer saw her, she turned her head back to the monsters. Smoer sighted again.
Neocro saw Smoer looking worried to David. Smoer was real, she was a real person. She met her, too. The others around her, they were real too. Sam, Lari, Sven, MrBored, Toro, Foloya, ... David. Yes, David too. Altough he was a God. Who decided this? Who decided that David would be a Hamba and Souleater a Hero? Then Neocro looked to Toro. Toro, he was a real person too. Neocro smiled. This people around her, they were friends ingame but... also real friends cause they were all real people, like her and Smoer. Neocro swinged her yoyos to a Mutant Augu. Madrigal was a mysterious world, and she was proud to live in it. Sudden she heared Sam shouting. "Run, Lari. You took too many monsters!" "I'll be fine!" shouted Lari back. "I can't keep on healing on this speed, Lari." said Sam back. Lari growled. "Fine, Foloya? Mind helping?" As soon she said that, fire arrows flied to the monsters who where running after Larimar. Sam smiled. Lari was easier after the storm. She listened more to her. The monsters died. 'Level up!' Appeared on Sam her screen. Sam smiled. This place was good.
David stared to the book in front of him. He sighted. This was already the seventh day that he had to read books. All the time he had to read books. Life as a Hamba was boring. He sighted and watched outside the window. Sudden he started to smile. Souleater was coming. David jumped of his chair and ran to the door to greet his friend. When he wanted to open the door he hesistated. He heared Laola and Souleater talking. "I'm going to Mas Mines. My father will be busy in Darkon 3, near volcano, and he told me I couldn't go with him. He said I should try to find things out on my own." "Your father is a wise man. Will you take someone with you?" asked Laola. "I don't know..." said Souleater. "I can't find someone who I want with me. The others of my age are mostly not as strong as me. And I don't want to take someone older as me with me, cause they'll feel like protecting me." "That's right..." said Laola. "You'll have to go alone then." said Laola. "No!" said David. He opened the door and ran outside. "I'll go with you!" The two looked surprised. "Were you listening at the door, David?" asked Laola. "Please, can I come with you, Souleater?" asked David, avoiding Laola her question. Souleater smiled. "Don't you have to read books?" David glared. "Is everything about beeing Hamba reading books?" "No." said Laola. "It's also knowing your world. If Souleater agrees, you can go with him." "And I agree." said Souleater. "I'd like to have someone wise near me." David smiled happy.
