Dreamer's Kingdom: Dominic's Quest

Arc 1: The Unknowing Hero

Chapter 4

The end of Normal days P3 - Welcoming Attack

At the field,

Dominic looked at the area before him. The area was a large underground dungeon with water falls that can barely be seen from a distance. He turned around to see a waterfall right behind him. Dominic blinked at the sight of the area, having only one word to describe his thoughts.

"Wow. This is pretty cool." Dominic trailed off, looking around the cave.

"Well, that's pretty much how [The World] is like! Even after a while, it's still has that same charm it always has." Silabus said.

"Really? I wonder how it keeps its charm?" Dominic said.

"That's probably a secret only CC Corp knows." Gaspard said.

"CC Corp?" Dominic questioned, which was bad move. Silabus and Gaspard looked at Dominic surprised.

"You don't know CC Corp?" Gaspard exclaimed. Dominic shook his head and said, "Sorry, I don't pay much attention to Company names."

Gaspard and Silabus looked at each other before Silabus said, "Well, I guess you were so excited to play [The World RX], you didn't pay attention to the Company name on the box."

"Y-yeah. You could say I was. I once saw my friends playing the old versions and I decided to sneak a peek and since then, I've wanted to play it, but I couldn't when I heard it crashed." Dominic lied. Deep inside, Dominic was thinking, 'Please believe it! I honestly don't know what's going on in my life anymore! I doubt anyone is going believe a REAL person is DIRECTLY INSIDE the game! Not in a million years anyone will believe it! Wait, could this be a dream? Please for the love of God, let this be a dream!'

"Oh, R1 and R2? Yeah, I guess anyone would want to play [The World] after seeing those versions. And also, It was R1 that crashed." Silabus said.

"Yeah, because of fire some guy named Jyotaro it caused. I heard he was driven by some sort of trance when he caused it." Gaspard said.

"Oh, I see." Dominic said, processing the new information. Dominic had been here for a few seconds and already he's learning [The World] is causing major problems in the real world. Dominic soon concluded he was going to see some problems inside the game.

"Well, on the Beast Statue! You're not going to learn how to enjoy [The World] by standing here anyway." Silabus said. Dominic nodded and followed him as soon as they started to walk towards dungeon.

Elsewhere in Dungeon,

Tokio rubbed his head as Sora helped him to his feet. Both of them were inside a cave based dungeon.

"Man, what hit me?" Tokio thought out loud.

"I think I did." Sora replied.

"What makes you say that?" Tokio asked. Sora replied, "I think I landed on you when we arrived."

"Oh yeah. Now I remember. I just hope Dominic didn't get crushed by us." Tokio said.

"Um, I think don't think Dominic's with us." Sora said as she looked around. Tokio immediately jumped in surprise and started to look around himself.

"WHERE'S DOMINIC?" Tokio yelled at the top of his lungs, causing Sora to cover her ears. She then muttered about how Makoto was lucky that he wasn't affected by it.

"C-calm down, Kuryuu-san. I'm sure Dominic will be fine by the time we find him. Hopefully..." Sora muttered the last part to herself. Tokio calmed down

"Hope so. I really don't want to the little guy to experience his first PK." Tokio said, unaware of a player was approaching him from behind.

"PK? Who's getting PK'd?" The player asked from behind Tokio. Tokio jolted in surprise and looked behind him to see a girl that looked similar to Kite, but with few differences. Her hair was long and tied in large twin tails, the wave symbol on her cap was slightly to the left, a small brown arm bag was on her left arm, she wore no undershirt under her vest which was a top that showed off her midriff, puffy short shorts, black thigh-high socks, and brown boots.

"Um, we were just talking about a friend of ours. He just started the World and we, um, kinda got separated. We were just worried about me being PK'd on his first time." Tokio said. Sora nodded in agreement in the background.

"Really! This is bad! Let's find him before those PKers do!" She exclaimed, alarming Tokio and Sora.

"Sakuya! Who are you talking to?" A feminine voice called out. Tokio and Sora turned to see two people that resembled two familiar people.

One of them was young man that deeply resembled a certain Blade master. He was in silver armor with gold linings, which formed an 'X' on the breast plate, and the armored legs and arms were a bluish violet tone. But like the girl Sakuya, there were differences, like there was silver armor with gold linings over the bluish violet armored arms, his hair was in a similar style but had a few strands that pointed up in the air like four antennas in a row, and he didn't have wings on his back.

The other one was a young woman that deeply resembled Blackrose, but like the other two, there were differences. Her hair was long and was tied in a ponytail that reached her calf and the rose that is on the left side of her head.

"Tobias! Mary! I ran in to these two and they said they were looking for a friend that they lost track of and they were afraid he would get PK'd." Sakuya said, earning a sweatdrop from both Tokio and Sora who both thought, 'You didn't have to say it like that...'

"Is that so?" Tobias questioned. Tokio nodded, having a feeling the search was going to be a little...lively.

"So, where did you last saw him?" Mary asked, causing Tokio and Sora to freeze.

"Um, We, uh, lost him in..." Sora said, making it look like she was trying to remember.

"In Mac Anu! He decided to wonder around and we last saw him head for the Chaos Gate!" Tokio said quickly. Tobias and Mary looked at him suspiciously for a bit, skeptical of his story. Sakuya, however, was different.

"Eh! He wondered off to an area on his own?" Sakuya said, earning strange looks from Tobias and Mary. Tokio and Sora mentally sighed in relief and sweatdropped.

"Oh jeez, Sakuya..." Mary muttered to herself, face-palming at Sakuya's assumption.

"If that's the case, then let's find him." Tobias said, knowing Sakuya wasn't to let it go.

"Well, thanks! I owe you guys a lot for it." Tokio said as he thought, 'A lot more than you think...'

"Well, shall we go off?" Tobias said, taking the lead. Everyone else followed Tobias as he said, "Besides, finding a Noob in this area isn't so hard."

Back with Dominic,

"ACHOO!" Dominic sneezed, alarming the unsuspecting Silabus and Gaspard.

"Odaijini. (AN: 'Bless you' in Japanese. I used Google Translate for this, so It undoubtedly must have a mixed or messed up translation)" Gaspard said as he turned to see Dominic rubbing his nose with his sleeve.

"Thanks." Dominic said. Dominic looked around the area much to Silabus and Gaspard's confusion.

"Um, Is something wrong?" Silabus asked.

"Well, I just have this feeling somebody's talking about me." Dominic said, confusing them even more.

"Huh, what do you mean by that?" Gaspard asked. Dominic looked around the area for a bit until he stopped and said, "You know what? Never mind, it was probably my imagination."

"Well, shall we continue to go through the dungeon?" Silabus asked. Dominic nodded and the group was off. On the way to the end of the dungeon, Silabus, Gaspard, and Dominic encountered several monsters along the way. For Silabus and Gaspard, they were easy to take out. Dominic, had a different story. Dominic, having no weapon, looked around for something while he was in the dungeon. Luckily, Silabus opened a treasure chest along the way and handed the item to Dominic. The item was a wooden staff, a weapon that suit Dominic, who was a bit more of a long range fighter than close range. Silabus and Gaspard assumed Dominic was a Tribal Grappler after Dominic 'equipped' the weapon. Dominic asked what a Martial Striker is while using the excuse he didn't read the manual. They told him a Martial Striker was like its sibling job, the Tribal Grappler, but they use a kind of fighting style that requires a staff/spear based weapon instead of a fist based one. Dominic had leveled up two levels as well.

"Aw come on!" Dominic whined as they ran into a another group of monsters. The group of said monsters were a group of Goblin Rookies. Silabus whipped out his sword, Blade Fern, Gaspard whipped out his Grimoire, Magic Amber, and Dominic pulled out his staff, Learn Apprentice.

"Get ready!" Silabus said as he charged in and strikes the first Goblin. Gaspard unleashed fire spells on two of them while Dominic struggles with defeating just one.

"Come on! Hold still!" Dominic complained as he tried to whack a Goblin with his staff. But the Goblin Rookie kept dodging. Irritated, Dominic dashed at the Goblin, held the staff like a baseball bat, and swung for his life, whacking the Goblin towards the barrier near Silabus who had finished off a Goblin before he went for the one that was whacked against the wall.

"Nice one, Dominic!" Gaspard cheered in the distance. Dominic scratched his head sheepishly.

"Ogre sword!" Silabus cried as he used the level four skill on the Goblin Rookie. The Goblin hit the barrier again before it fell to the ground and faded away, defeated.

"Alright! That takes care of them!" Dominic said as he put away the staff. Dominic then suddenly glowed gold, much to his surprise.

"Hey, you leveled up! Good for you!" Silabus said.

"Man, I just can't get used to that..." Dominic thought out loud.

"Don't worry. I was surprised myself when I leveled up for the first time." Gaspard said with a hint of embarrassment.

"Thanks for the support." Dominic said before thinking, 'Good thing I'm not the only one who'd get surprised by it.'

He then looked at Silabus and Gaspard and asked, "Where to?"

"Well, the dungeon is fairly short, so we're not to far from the beast statue." Silabus answered.

"So, to the Beast statue?" Dominic questioned.

"Yep! Off we go! :D" Silabus and Gaspard said.

-5 minutes Later-

"There it is, the Beast statue." Silabus said as he lead Dominic to the statue. The large statue was carved from brown stone and looked like a Divine Beast. Dominic stared at the statue, stunned by how incredible it looked.

"Whoa..." Dominic trailed off, entranced by how cool the Beast Statue looked.

"Look! The Treasure!" Gaspard said, pointed at the treasure right in front of the statue.

"What's that?" Dominic asked.

"That's the treasure offering. It's pretty much the whole objective for many players whenever they go to a Dungeon." Silabus answered.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Open it!" Gaspard said enthusiastically as he led Dominic over to the treasure. Dominic timidly walked over to the treasure chest, knelled down, and tapped open the chest with his staff (AN:Whenever Dominic finds a treasure chest, he'll open the same Sora did in KH1).

{!} Dominic has obtained Brave Bracelet!{!}

"Well, we got the treasure! Let's head back!" Silabus said.

"Are you getting the hang of this, Dominic?" Gaspard asked. Dominic nodded and said, "Yeah, thanks to you guys!"

"No problem! It's what we of Canard do!" Gaspard said.

"Canard?" Dominic questioned as he walked over to the nearby Platform.

"Oh, It's a guild! See, guilds are comprised of individuals that come together and form their own group. Basically, a guild is like a club!" Silabus answered.

"Oh, I see." Dominic said.

"Dominic!/Dominic-San!" A familiar pair of voices cried out. Dominic turned around only to be tackled to the ground by a thankful and relieved Tokio.

"T-Tokio!" Dominic gasped out as he was being crushed by Tokio's bear-hug.

"Dominic! Are you okay! Did you run into any PKs? Come on tell me! DON'T LEAVE ME IN THE DARK!" Tokio exclaimed, causing everyone else to sweatdrop at the sight. Little did Tokio know that he was squeezing the life out of Dominic.

"Um, Kuryuu-San? You choking Dominic-San." Sora said, pointing to Dominic, who's face was blue from the lack of air.

"OH MY GOD! DOMINIC!" Tokio screeched as he let go, who began breathing precious oxygen. Everyone sweat dropped again at the scene.

"Um, Tokio? Is Dominic your friend?" Silabus asked, breaking the awkwardness of the scene.

"Yeah! We lost him in Mac Anu awhile ago when he went to look around." Tokio said, still going with the story he thought up of.

"Oh, really? We found him laying on the ground when this weird green light appeared." Gaspard said, catching Dominic and Tobias' attention.

"You never told me that." Dominic said as he got all the air back in his lungs.

"Oh, we thought it was a glitch." Silabus said. Tobias eyed Dominic for a bit, much to his discomfort when Dominic noticed.

"W-what?" He asked.

"Nothing, I just have a feeling it's going to get interesting with you around." Tobias said.

"Eh?" Dominic said, confused by what she meant. Dominic then noticed that Tobias looked similar to a certain character along with his friends.

"So, who are you guys?" Dominic asked.

"My name is Sakuya and I'm here to help you!" Sakuya said.

"My name is Tobias. Nice to meet you all." Tobias said casually.

"I'm Mary. Please to meet you guys." Mary said.

"Well, we've done our part so we'll be off." Mary said.

"Eh? What part?" Gaspard said.

"We were just helping those two look a friend." Tobias said as he jerked a thumb towards the unlikely trio.

"Oh, I see." Silabus said.

"Thanks again!" Sora said as she bowed towards the three.

"Oh it's nothing! It's the right thing to do! Plus it was fun!" Sakuya said.

"Well, like we said, we owe you guys." Tokio said.

"I'm aware of that. We'll be- hmm?" Tobias started before he noticed Dominic's appearance.

"W-what?" Dominic said, becoming more uncomfortable and insecure by the second.

"Your PC, is it modded?" Tobias questioned. Mary and Sakuya noticed Dominic's 'PC' as well.

"What's with your PC? Did you input a cheat on it?" Mary questioned.

"Are you a Hacker?" Sakuya asked.

"Mod? Cheat? Hacker?" Dominic repeated the words, confused. Silabus noticed this and decided to cut in.

"Well, his PC is actually a new version that CC Corp is thinking up. I think they mailed him a Beta version." Silabus said. Tobias and Mary arched an eyebrow and looked at Dominic's dumbfounded expression, not even noticing Sakuya was circling around him, examining his PC. They started having doubts, but their suspicion didn't lessen.

"Well, we're off. Sakuya, let's go!" Tobias said as he and Mary walked over to the Platform. Sakuya jolt and ran towards them. Dominic watched them go off as Tobias and Mary were the first to disappear. Sakuya didn't go, instead she turned around and walked over to Dominic.

"Dominic. Is that how your PC looks? Are you sure it's not hacked?" Sakuya asked.

"Um, Y-yeah. I honestly don't know much about what CC Corp did to this PC." Dominic lied, but Sakuya seem to believe it.

"Okay, just wanted to know. It's not fun if your PC's hacked. Well, bye bye!" Sakuya said as she warped to town. Dominic sighed in relief that it was over.

"Wow, it looks like they'll keep an eye on Dominic. Better sharpen up on making up stories." Tokio muttered. Everyone walked over to to the Platform and warped back to town.

With Dominic's friends,

"Did you find him?" Megumi asked as she walked out of the room.

"No sign of him, Tokio, or Sora! Dammit, just where the hell are they?" Xiros said. Mike and Kairi walked inside the Inn minutes later.

"Any luck?" Xiros asked.

"Nada." Mike bluntly answered. Lucy and Jake walked in seconds later.

"What about-?" Mike started.

"We got nothing..." Jake said.

"Well, they have to be somewhere!" Xiros said irritably.

"I know they're somewhere around here, but where?" Megumi said, gaining everyone's attention.

"How do you know?" Jake asked.

(BGM beginning cue: Dissidia: A Brief Respite)

"Well, when we were little, I spent a lot of time with Dominic. Through the time we spent together, I felt...I felt a bond forming between us. That would always tell me when Dominic was feeling happy or down in the dumps, and I always did I feel was right to do, depending on how he's feeling." Megumi answered. Everyone listened intently as she said that, feeling like they had a bond similar to hers.

"I know how that feels." Xiros said, catching Megumi by surprise.

"I too, feel that same bond form between us when Dominic came over to play with me and Xiros when we were little. To me, Dominic feels like a little brother to me." Mike said.

"Yeah, I get that same feeling whenever I'm around the little guy. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside." Jake said.

"Well, life wouldn't be the same without Dominic." Lucy said.

"Well, Dominic is the reason our lives have gotten lively, what not with us meeting on that day." Mika said.

"Oh yeah! The District school field trip four years ago! Wildest day of mah life!" Jake exclaimed in joy. Everyone else nodded in agreement.

"It was definitely lively that day." Mika said, reminiscing on that day.

"Then again, we met Dominic, Xiros, and Mike that day, so it's fitting." Lucy said.

"Good times, Good times..." Jake said. Everyone sighed as they remembered that day.

(BGM ending cue: Dissidia: A Brief Respite)

That silence was soon interrupted by a "Ahem..." from Kairi. Everyone turned to her to see a displeased expression on her face.

"Well, since you love to reminisce on how Dominic met you all," Kairi started, "HOW ABOUT YOU TRY TO FIND HIM FOR MORE REMINISCING ON YOUR OWN TIME!"

"Yeesh, lady! Chill out! We're just as worried about Dominic as you are!" Lucy said.

"Well, then at least help me find him!" Kairi retorted.

"Well, Dominic-Sama can't be far!" Xiros said.

"Eh? Dominic's gone?" Kai said as he walked into the Inn with Shin, Ryu, Terra, Kite, and Blackrose right behind him.

"Well, pretty much!" Jake said.

"Where's Sora and Tokio?" Kite asked as he and Ryu walked into the room.

"Tokio took out a black disk and they suddenly disappeared."

"Did they seriously disappeared?" Blackrose asked, skeptical.

"They can't be far. I know Tokio and with teleportation spells, he NEVER gets that far." Shin lament.

"SPELLS! AS IN FIRAGA, THUNDERGA, AND ALL THAT?" Lucy exclaimed, remembering the few times she played Final Fantasy with Dominic.

"Yes, the very same." Terra said.

"Still, is it true that Dominic's gone?" Kai asked.

"Yeah! No thanks to you!" Kairi retorted.

"Huh, what did I do?" Kai asked, confused at the hostility towards him.

"It's all because of that stupid dream he had and now all of this shit is happening to him because of you!" Kairi accused.

"Well, I only asked him for help. He didn't have help me if he didn't want to." Kai said.

"Dominic's been through enough in his life and you suddenly want to put him through more misery? Why don't just get Dominic back to us and get the hell out of here! Find someone who'll actually give a damn about what you and your stupid friends are going through!" Kairi said.

"Oi Kairi! That's enough! You're just stressed out about Dominic being missing." Megumi said, attempting to calm down her sister.

"NO! I'm just about sick of this shit! Why Dominic? Why him? Dominic is only an innocent boy! Why bring him into all of this! I don't care if you need his help to find whatever the hell you're looking, but find someone other than Dominic! Dominic...is all we have after our parents passed away." Kairi was wide eyed at the sudden info of Dominic's past. "He was devastated when they passed away. He...wouldn't even do anything. He wouldn't talk, smile, laugh, or look at anyone. He...didn't even bother eating."

Kai was silent as was everyone else as they listened.

"It was only till Grandpa and Grandma had decided to speak to him. They did all they could do for Dominic to return to his usual self. I was...I was glad when Dominic started to be the Dominic I knew. I promised myself since then, I will NEVER let Dominic feel that misery again!" Kairi said.

"Kairi..." Megumi trailed off.

"I didn't know...he suffered losing them like that." Terra said.

"Guess there are things we really don't know about him." Blackrose murmured.

"Harsh..." Shin said.

'Just met Dominic a while ago and already we have something we have in common...' Kai thought. Everyone else was silent, absorbing the new info they got about Dominic.

"Okay, I'm off." Kai said, breaking the silence. A good majority of the group looked at him as if he had gone insane.

"Where are you going?" Lucy asked.

"Where else? [The World], of course." Kai said.

With Dominic,

Dominic warped back into Mac Anu with Tokio and Sora, but not before saying goodbye to Gaspard and Silabus before gaining their member address.

"That was eventful! I didn't know you had friends with you and it look like you're already making friends!" Silabus said.

"Well, if you want to know a little about the game, just say the word!" Gaspard said.

{!} Dominic has gained Silabus and Gaspard's Member Addresses!{!}

"Okay, I will! Bye!" Dominic said, waving to the duo. Silabus and Gaspard then logged off.

"Well, that went better than I thought." Tokio said.

"Honestly, it was close that you managed to come up with a decent story." Sora said.

"Well, he did had to say something someone would believe. Just telling them that I'm a real person directly inside the game would think we were nutcases." Dominic said.

"Well, I'm surprised that few guys believed me. Then again, after what they went through, I guess they WOULD believe it." Tokio muttered.

"SO, what now? I'm inside the game so I have to do something." Dominic said.

"Well, how bout a quest?" Tokio suggested.

"If there's a low level quest for us." Dominic lament.

"Well, I really didn't take on any quests, so we'll be good for the most part." Tokio said.

"Hope so..." Dominic muttered, "So, what quest should we take?"

"Hmmm, how bout one guarantee to raise your level up?" Tokio said.

"Huh?" Dominic said, confused. Well, he was confused for a bit before he realized he was low leveled.

"Well, one meant for my level. Me and Sora will take care of everything while you heal us in the back." Tokio said, earning a 'whut' face from Sora and Dominic.

"You can't be serious. I'll obviously die..." Dominic lament.

"No you won't! Me and Sora are here to back you up!" Tokio said, placing an arm on Sora's shoulders.

'Still I'm doubting...' Dominic thought.

"You could say that again..." A voice in Dominic's head said, starling the poor boy.

"What the?" Dominic exclaimed as he looked around. Sora and Tokio seem confused by Dominic's sudden outburst.

"Dominic-san? What's wrong?" Sora asked.

"Did you hear that?" Dominic asked, referring to the voice in his head.

"Hear what? We heard nothing." Tokio said.

"H-huh?" Dominic stuttered. He couldn't believe it, no one heard the voice. Only he did and possibly only him. He was the only one who could hear the voice in his head. Dominic then thought he was probably going crazy with the insanity that has been happening to him recently, but he doubt it was the case.

"Anyway, putting that aside, let's go!" Tokio said storming off to the Quest shop.

"Kuryuy-san! Wait!" Sora said, grabbing Dominic's hand and running after the hyperactive redhead. Dominic didn't make any sort of resistance, hell he didn't even bother to move on his own. He was too indulged into who or what the voice in his head was and what it meant.

Elsewhere in the worlds,

"You..." A young man with blonde spiky hair said as he looked, no GLARED, at the man before him. He was wearing a sleeveless zipped-down turtleneck sweater with black cloth covering his left arm and leg, and his boots were different, his pauldron had a Fenrir emblem on it. Wielded fully assembled fusion swords, he glared at the man before him.

"Good to see you again, Cloud." The man said. The man had long, silver hair, and wore a black trench coat with an ornate belt decorated with beads, a bracelet similar to the bracelet on his right wrist, and silver pauldrons. Underneath his coat are white and lavender sashes. He wielded a seven foot long katana , which was noted to be ridiculously long, with ease.

The two warriors stood on the grounds of contemporary town, its very inhabitants absent. They most likely hiding from the silver haired man when he demolished a small part of the part a short while ago. Giant craters, ruined buildings, and fires covering anywhere distinguishable.

"Sephiroth, what are you doing?" Cloud questioned as he looked at the 'man' before him. The man merely chuckled a cruel and unforgiving chuckle, much to his irritation as he kept on glaring at him.

"Hmmph, I was merely asking the petty Humans here where this claimed 'Divine Jewel' is." Sephiroth said, his tone filled a mix of sarcasm and cruelty.

"Divine Jewel? You mean the God Crystal." Cloud corrected.

"Ah, yes. The God Crystal. A crystal with unfathomable power. Power to crush everything, to end it all, and the power overwhelming enough to slay even God himself. Mother will be more than pleased." Sephiroth said, entranced by the facts that were spewing out of his mouth. Cloud scowled at the mention of Sephiroth's Mother. One of the monsters that created the one he was facing.

"You know Cloud," He began, giving Cloud his usual poker face, much to the blonde's disdain, "I've never knew that the child you had with you, could be a threat to Mother. I wonder...how will his power be if he was a child of a true and proper Mother." He finished as he adopted his battle stance.

Cloud's eyes widen when he realized what Sephiroth meant. He instantly placed his in battle position and glared at Sephiroth even more than usual.

"How dare you." Cloud said as he glared harder his nemesis. Sephiroth merely chuckled and said, "Well, if you're that eager, then I'll show you...true perfection."

"Perfection? I doubt that is what I'm facing." Cloud shot back.

"Really? Well, guess I shouldn't have held back so much." He retorted with arrogance staining his tone.

They both stood there, unwavering, waiting for the timing for their destiny's wheel to start moving as the two stared down at each other. In perfect unison, since their instinct to kill had prompted them, they dashed towards one another, their swords clashing in a hail of sparks as the former SOLDIER General and the Imaginary SOLDIER clashed. The result seem to the be the ground before them vibrating from their power.

Elsewhere on the world,

Down the street from the fight, two people stood in an alleyway, feeling the vibration of the ground below them.

"What the hell! Kat, what was that?" The first one, obviously male, asked. He was a young man that about either seventeen or eighteen. He had black hair with the sides of his head shaved and the hair at the back of his head white, and his eye color seems to be grey-blue. His attire consists of a black 3/4 length leather hooded jacket with red interior linings and the British Union flag sewn on the left arm, a gray tank top, black fingerless gloves, black faded jeans, black military boots, and a necklace reminiscent of a bone with a red jewel attached.

"I-I don't know, Dante. It seems to coming from up the street." The second one, obviously female, said. She was young woman that seem to be sixteen or seventeen. She wore a lavender hoodie with orange graffiti paint that acts as a second short sleeved shirt , which she keeps up over her head, hiding her short brown hair. She has several long necklaces with silver pendants, and wears black short short jeans with knee-high black boots. She has a stencils tube slung over her back, used in her tagging with spray paint that hangs off her waist. She has several mystic-designed tattoos on her arms and a star shaped one on her forehead. The hood may be covering her head but you could still see her dark eye shadow and dull blue eyes like that of a female wolf.

"Well, whatever it is, it's obviously damn big!" Dante said. He walked over to the source of the rumbling, but was stopped by Kat.

"What, Dante!" She cried out.

"I know, be careful. Don't worry Kat, aren't I always careful?" He said in cocky tone of voice.

"Are you sure? Whatever caused that must of been a Demon or something else on a different level. I-I just-!" She said before Dante placed an index on her lips, instinctively made her cheeks go red.

"Shhh. We'll talk later." Dante said before he leaped from the concrete ground to a nearby building.

Kat watched as he was now off to the source of the vibration, praying that he'd be safe. "Please spirits...keep him safe...keep him safe...as he journeys to hell."

Back to the fight,

"Slow!" He mocked as he swung the sword again, unleashing a storm of slashes on Cloud's direction. Cloud instantly blocked the first few slashes that would connect with him, dodged another five slashes with effort, but three slashes had got him.

"Hmm, It seems you can see Masamune. That..makes it more entertaining." Sephiroth said before he released energy slashes at Cloud, who blocked by instinct and countered with a blade beam of his own rushing towards Sephiroth. Sephiroth jumped over the beam and gracefully landed before launching more energy slashes towards Cloud.

"Braver!" Cloud exclaimed as he dove against the energy slashes as sword blazed in a pale blue light. Sephiroth took five paces back from the approaching blade and countered, knocking Cloud a good distance away from him.

"Pathetic." Sephiroth commented. Cloud landed on his feet and dashed towards him. Before Sephiroth had a chance to strike, Cloud jumped over him in the air, landed on his feet, and launch a vertical slash at Sephiroth, who blocked it with his bare hand. The impact of the blade and Sephiroth's hand was a steel blade against a hard rock. Cloud grunted in disdain at the result and jumped back into a nearby building and prepared himself for the next hit. Or so he thought until he saw Sephiroth had disappeared.

"Vanish!" Before Cloud had a chance to turn around, he felt a lightning fast slash at his back. He grunted as pure pain flowed through his body as he skidded across the hard concrete and crashed into an abandoned shop. Cloud landed on an aisle filled with snacks. They did little effort in softening his landing.

Sephiroth laughed at the sight of Cloud, powerless before him. Cloud leapt out of the building, swooped down and slash at the former general with with great speed. Sephiroth took the brunt of the attack and was sent flying to a random building nearby. Sephiroth, though had taken the brunt of the attack, shrugged off the pain, adjusted himself in the air at the right angle, and landed on the wall of the building like a cat, perfectly on his feet. Sephiroth grinned his usual troll-like grin at the chocobo head.

Cloud's eye twitched at the sight of the familiar grin of his, irritated that he wasn't effected by the attack. As usual, Sephiroth teleported and descended on the roof of the shop Cloud had crashed into.

"Confident, aren't you? Though it seems, the edge you had in our previous battles has gone away with the winds of despair." Sephiroth began. "Can you feel it? The feeling creeping under your skin?"

"The only I feel under my skin is you and the misery you brought with you." Cloud shot back.

As the two stared down at each other, Dante had leapt on a nearby building and saw the two warriors.

"Whoa! Who are these guys?" He asked no one in particular, "Whoa, Those are HUGE swords." He said as he saw their swords, mesmerized by the size and length and of them.

"Might as well see what's their deal." Dante said as he leapt over to see a closer look of the fight.

Back with Dominic,

"So what was this quest again?" Dominic asked as he followed Sora and Tokio through the shrine-based dungeon.

"We have to get the treasure at the end of this dungeon." Sora answered.

"I know this is a level 5 quest, but they can at least make it a little more actiony." Tokio said.

"Actiony? Is that even a word?" Sora said.

"I doubt it is." Dominic lament.

"Hey! I'm trying to be a little optimistic here!" Tokio exclaimed.

"How exactly?" Sora questioned.

"Well...the mission will probably get a little boring. SO far, I haven't see a single monster around here." Tokio said. Tokio's words were true. So far, they haven't see a single monster on the dungeon level. And they were halfway finish on the first floor.

"There'll probably be some on the second floor. This IS a three floor dungeon." Dominic said.

"Yeah, but it kinda ruins the fun a little." Tokio said.

"...Tokio..." Dominic sighed.

"Well, it'll be over before we know anyway. We just got to get the treasure at the end of this." Sora said. The trio stepped out of the temple and seem to be outside.

"Yeah good point. No use complaining about the lack of enemies on the first floor." Tokio said as he walked towards the misty gate. walking towards it, they were transported on the second floor soon enough.

"Woo-hoo! Let's go beat some monsters!" Tokio said as he dashed off.

"Tokio! Stop running off like that!" Dominic said as he and Sora ran after him. Little did they know, that they were being watched from a distance.

Some time later...

"Take this!" Tokio shouted as he landed the final blow on a Level 7 Goblin Mage. It fell seconds later before evaporating into nothing.

"Ha, that's done." Sora said as she put away her weapons.

"Yeah, after facing like 30 monsters on the way." Dominic murmured to himself.

"Well, seems like the action is here to stay!" Tokio shouted victoriously.

"What to do with him..." Dominic and Sora muttered.

"How bout you get rid of him?" A voice said. The trio jolted up and turned to see a group of players walking towards them. One of them was a Edge Punisher in white loose clothing and red hair, another was a Harvest Cleric with light blue clothing and gray hair, and the last was a Lord Partizan in large gold armor with a silver visor.

"Um, can we help you?" Dominic asked.

"Yes, you can. We were just looking for a little...entertainment." The red hair said. The way he said the said the last part made a chill crawl up Dominic's spine.

"Entertainment? Um, what...kind of entertainment?" Dominic asked, though he felt he was going to regret it.

"Oh, just a little hunting here and there. Nothing special." The Harvest Cleric said casually. Dominic's intuition had started telling to run.

"For what?" Sora asked.

"Hmm, I have a question for you." The Lord Partizan said, referring to Dominic, "Have you started playing [The World]?"

"Um, just for a couple hours..." Dominic said, remembering the two hours of wondering around, leveling himself up.

"Well, a Noob. What a pleasure...TO PK YOU!" The red shouted, pulling out his oversized sword and swinging it at Dominic's side. Dominic instantly leapt back a couple feet away from the sword. Said sword looked like a mixture of a claymore and a chainsaw. Dominic sweat in fear from the colossal size and image of the sword. It seem to be 4/5 the size of Cloud's sword and that thing was huge as hell.

"Aw, he dodged your attack Rinzar. Well, since you missed, can I have a turn?" The Cleric asked as she took out a staff. Said staff was angelic in appearance and had adorable white wings on the side.

"Shut it, Krily! I can definitely take this Noob to his grave!" Rinzar said.

"Don't be such a party pooper, Rinzar." Krily said.

"Can we get this over this? I have an appointment to attend to in twenty minutes." The Lord Partizan said as he took out his weapon. It was a mixture of a regular drill and a evil looking Halberd. In short, it creeped Dominic to no end.

"Dominic! RUN!" Tokio said as he charged the Lord Partizan down and began going for Krily. Sora held off Rinzar, which wasn't easy, allowing the young boy to run deeper into the dungeon.

Elsewhere in the worlds,

Zane Horizon walked through the dark halls of a castle. The walls were pure white and gave the feeling of serenity, but underneath the walls was pure malice and evil. He walked past the white marble pillars as he approached the door ahead of him. The doors were large and seem to have twin monsters carved on each door. Zane pushed the doors open and walked in the room, which was dark yet dimly lighted. He could see a small group of people ahead of him and he could tell from the positions of their heads they were looking at him.

"Why, hello Zane. I do hope your mission was a success." One of the people said.

"Sorry, it wasn't." Zane said. This earned a scoff from them.

"And why wasn't it?" Another asked.

"Where's the boy?" Another one asked.

"I got interrupted by few people, one of them happened to be a Half Esper." Zane answered.

"The Cosmos Warriors." A deep voice said.

"Yep. Them, the Dot hackers, A martial Artist, and the God Crystal Wielder." Zane said.

"Ugh, those urchins? Why If I see those pieces of shit, I'LL DESTROY THEM!" A feminine voice said in rage.

"Hey! Leave some for me! I LOVE destroying!" An insane voice said.

"Oh brother. Are you sure you're even doing your job right? Come on, Relius could do better than that!" A mocking voice said.

"...Yeah, like to see that." A deep voice said.

"You wanna start something? Cause I REALLY like to rip your guts out!" The mocking voice said.

"Come and try, weakling..." The deep voice taunted.

"ENOUGH!" A figure said as it stepped out the shadows, revealing a man with long, wild blonde hair wearing a purple crown with a snake head emerging form it, regal gold and purple armor decorated with small spikes, purple and white stripes, and demonic faces including the one on his back obscured by his hair and an elegant purple cape.

"Mateus. I apologize for the failure of my mission."

"Don't be. Even a miscalculation like the Cosmos' warriors intervention is counted in my plan to rule everything." Mateus said.

"Well, so you had a back up plan, did you?" Zane questioned.

"A ruler must ALWAYS have another plan when one has failed." Mateus retorted.

"Hehe, good point. So I guess you don't mind, enlightening us on it." Zane said.

"Gladly." Mateus said with a smug smile.

"I just hope it's useful." A soft and young voice murmured.

Back with Dante,

Dante landed among the city rubble, watching the two warriors duke it out. Dante noticed the blond one was slightly injured, but can manage to fight off the silver hair warrior.

"Hmm, a guy going all out on an injury guy? I really don't like those odds." He said as he whipped out his guns, one black, one white, and pointed them at Sephiroth. While the design philosophy used in making the weapons look like a mix of reality and fantasy, the twin pistols' actions resembled Desert Eagles as the grips look like clumps of metal fashioned into sharp points. Near the bore of each pistol are engravings of scroll-work and each also sporting a ring hammer.

Without a second thought, Dante pulled the trigger and the bullets rapidly at lightning speed came towards Sephiroth. Sephiroth saw the bullets coming from the corner of his eye and dodged without effort. Landing gracefully on the ground, Sephiroth looked at Dante with a mild amusement at his effort.

"Hmm, I wonder who are you and how are you able to shoot those bullets at that speed?" Sephiroth asked, though his tone showing he didn't care much.

"My name? Well, my name is Dante. But you can call me Dante the Demon hunter. Has a nice fuck you to it, don't you think?" Dante said, earning a surprised look from Cloud.

"You're...Dante?" Cloud asked.

"Yeah, what bout it?" Dante said.

"...Never mind. I'll tell you later." Cloud said, still surprised to know that his savior's name was Dante.

"Oookay. Moving on. Saw your battle not to far from here and I was wonder if I could join in on the fun?" Dante said as he grabbed his sword behind his back. Said sword was a bluish silver-colored claymore. The blade was long and double-edged with the forward-facing edge curving outward to form the guard.

"Depends. How strong are you..." Sephiroth started before he vanished and reappeared behind Dante, much to his surprise, "...To last against me?"

The sound of steel clashing echoed seconds later. Dante had managed to block the attack in time, lucky him. Sephiroth 'humphed' in amusement.

"Not bad. But, it will take more than luck to save you." Sephiroth said.

"Oh really? You wanna prove it? Cause I'm up for a challenge!" Dante said as his blade pushed backed Sephiroth's and Dante began attacking. Dante started with three swings, one for Sephiroth's left side, one for his right, and the third one for his chest. All three were blocked without effort. Dante swung his sword two times, both were blocked, before having it transform into something else. it transformed in what appear to be a black and red battleaxe. The red blade is large and curves over some of the shaft. The grip is the same his sword, showing it had shape shifting abilities. The battleaxe gave off a sinister feeling with a glow to match. Said battleaxe hit Sephiroth dead on, stunning him for a bit before it came again, only harder and slow. The third one was the slowest, allowing Sephirtoh to recover but not fast enough to dodge the final strike. Sephiroth was airborne seconds later as the last attack hit the ground, HARD. Dante smirked in victory at that. Sephiroth adjusted himself in the air and landed safely on a battered Taxi.

"Impressive. It seems your sword has some...interesting abilities." Sephiroth said as he watched the battleaxe transform back into a sword.

"Just showing what Arbiter can do. Rebellion knows some other tricks, if you're still amused to hear." Dante said.

"humphed, such arrogance. I'm actually surprised that Mundus hasn't killed you yet." Sephiroth said, hitting a nerve in Dante.

"Who him? Please, he sends the weak pieces of shit to try and kill me. And look at me, tough and ready to kick ass anytime I want to." Dante said with a hint of pride and arrogance.

"Really? Well, then enlighten me." Sephirtoh said as he got his battle pose.

"Alright then! Well, hope you like getting ass kicked, motherfucker!" Dante said as his sword transformed into a scythe. Said scythe was light blue in color and had a long and curved blade coming off the tip of the snaith at its heel. The snaith of the scythe looks to be made out of wood, and it has two grips protruding from opposite ends that resemble whittled branches. The scythe gave off a peaceful feeling with a glow to match.

"Dante...Is that really you? Or are you..." Cloud muttered as he watched him fight off Sephiroth.

Back with Dominic,

Dominic ignored the nearby monsters and ran towards the doors in the dungeon and ran into the final floor of the dungeon. While doing so, he analysis his situation. Sora and Tokio were fighting off the PKers who were trying to kill him and his level was a measly 11. Dominic managed to see their levels. Their levels seem to be either 23 or 25. He was physically sweating at the damage they can cause if they managed to get their hands on him. Dismissing the thought out of fear, Dominic stopped when he saw a metal barred door in front of him.

"At a time like this! I got killers on my trails and a metal door comes to block my path!" Dominic complained. He looked at the door with a glare before he realized he was glaring at a door just for being in his way. He sighed as he regain his bearings and examined the door.

"How do you open this thing?" Dominic questioned as he examined it. The door seem to be lock tightly, but Dominic had a feeling that something has to unlock it. He then hear a little voice squeak. Dominic turned around to see a small little purple creature. It was small in size and was four legged.

It had a small blue orb glowing between it's cat-like ears. It had two white dots, supposedly it's eyes, and a cute smile that looked like a 'W'. Dominic watched the little creature sway side from side as if it was doing a little dance. Dominic chuckled at the dance, feeling light. Possibly feeling cheerful despite of his situation. Dominic stopped chuckling after a good two minutes and remembered the door behind him. Dominic suddenly had a thought and was hoping that it would work.

Dominic calmly walked over the the tiny creature, showing that he wasn't going to harm it, bent down to it's height and, with hope in his voice, asked,"Um, Is it okay if you show me how to open the door?" Dominic said, pointing to the metal door. The little creature stared at Dominic for a bit before scampered off, leaving him behind.

"Hey wait!" Dominic pleaded as he watch it leave. "...You could've just said no." He turned to face the gate and walked a few steps towards it, dumbfounded on how to unlock it. He then hears a chorus of squeaks and turns around to see several more of the creatures, about fifteen or more. They scampered near Dominic and released the orbs on their heads with then floated towards Dominic. Dominic placed his arms open and the orbs went flying around him as he closed his arms, catching the orbs and holding them like it was a baby. Dominic looked at the orbs he managed to catched and was amazed at the amount he had in his arms. There seem to be around twenty of them.

"Um, t-thanks." Dominic said meekly.

The little creatures then scampered off into the dungeon until they were out of view. Dominic walked towards the door and let the rest up to the orbs as fifteen of them vanished and the door opened. Dominic smirked as he placed the orbs in his inventory. The door was wide open and Dominic and go further into the dungeon. As he went through Dominic saw something familiar in the distance.

"Is that...? It is! The Beast Statue!" He exclaimed as he approached it. Still as large as he last saw it, Dominic sighed as he felt safety. He then looked back, hoping that Sora and Tokio were safe. Dominic thought about going to see but decided against it. He would ripped to shreds at his level, so he had only one opinion: Wait for them to arrive. Dominic sighed, knowing that was the only opinion left and complied.

A good ten minutes later...

Dominic was completely bored out of his mind. Ten long minutes and no sign of the two. Dominic had checked his stats and both Sora and Tokio were still alive. Low on health, but alive. Dominic had the thought of them running towards him with those PKs right behind them. He hoped that it wouldn't happen and shook his head to dismiss the thought.

"You look like you could use some help." The same voice in Dominic's head said, starling the boy once again.

"Who's there!" Dominic said as he looked around the area.

"You can't find me physically, ya know." The voice said.

"W-who are you?" Dominic asked.

"Well, I honestly have no name. I'm a part of your psyche, so, give me a name!" The voice said. Dominic had a 'WTH' look on his face.

"Are you serious?" Dominic said.

"Pretty much. It would just get annoying calling me 'Voice'. Not much of a name ya know." It responded. Dominic nodded in agreement as he saw it's point. "SO, name. Give it to me."

"...Um, how about...Maria?" Dominic suggested.

"I have an answer for that. It's called...DEUUEAUGH!" The voice said, perfectly imitating the SpongeBob Meme.

"You didn't have to be mean about it." Dominic said.

"Well, SORRY, it's just in my nature." The voice replied. "But enough of that. Name. Me want. Nao nao NAO!"

"Okay! Okay! Sheesh. How about Abigail?" Dominic suggested.

"UGH!" The voice grunted in disapproval.

"Lizzy?"Dominic tried again.

"EW!" The voice squealed in disgust.

"Sarah?" Dominic suggested again.

"Try again..." It lamented.

"...How about..." Dominic started,"...Chiyo? It means 'a thousand generations'." Dominic suggested.

"...I guess that'll work. Don't the mention of being a thousand years old, but I can live with the name." It said.

"Well, that's taken care of..." Dominic stared, "Mind telling me why you're in my head?"

"...Well, remember that necklace you got this morning?" Chiyo asked.

"Yes. What of it?" Dominic said, not exactly catching on.

"Well, the necklace is actually a sanctuary for me to rest in. At least, that's what I had planned until this little son of a bitch trapped me in."Chiyo said.

"Trap? What do you mean?" Dominic asked.

"Well, not all of us God Crystal spirits were naturally created with it. Some of us were either sealed or forced inside it." Chiyo responded.

"God Crystal?" Dominic asked as the new word echoed in his mind. Chiyo was about to answer until the sound of footsteps were heard. Dominic looked in the direction of the footsteps and hoped it was Sora and Tokio. His hopes were partially answered.

"SORA! TOKIO!" Dominic cried as he saw his friends battered and beaten. Dominic mentally complimented that for a game, it was looking convincing enough to be real life. Dismissing the comment, Dominic watched as the PKers from earlier carry his friends.

"Well, took us long enough to find you." Rinzar said as he threw Sora across the ground. She skidded a few feet just in front of Dominic.

"Indeed. A waste of time it seemed, but it went without a problem." The Lord Partizan said as he threw Tokio across the ground. He skidded a decent amount of feet before hitting the railing.

"Ghh..." He grunted as he awoke from unconsciousness and managed to sit up. "W-what happened? My head felt like it was ran over by a truck..."

"Tokio! Are you okay?" Dominic asked.

"Never better. Despite of the headache I got." He said as he rubbed his head.

"Well, now that all of you are in place, we can get on with the show." Rinzar said.

"Finally. I was getting tired of this game of Cat and Mouse." The Lord Partizan said.

"Aw! But SAd0, I always love a game of Cat and Mouse with my prey." Krily said.

"Well, I don't. I have an appointment with my boss in eight minutes and I prefer not to be late." SAd0 Said.

"Don't worry. We'll make this as quick and enjoyable as we can. I call dibs on the shorty!" Rinzar said, referring to Dominic.

"Wait what, me!" Dominic said in a panic.

"AW! I wanted to PK him! Take the stupid red head instead!" Krily said.

"Can't. SAd0 already got dibs on him." Rinzar said.

"Then get the Twin Blade! I just want to PK the timid Noob!" Krily said.

"I'm right here, you know." Dominic said.

"SHUT UP!" Rinzar and Krily said in prefect unison.

"Look, I'll take the Noob and you get the Twin Blade!" Rinzar commanded.

"NO! I want to get the Noob! You get the Twin Blade!" Krily shot back.

"No you!" Rinzar said.

"YOU!" Krily said.

"YOU!"

"NO YOU!"

"YOU GET THE TWIN BLADE!"

"NO YOU GET THE TWIN BLADE!"

"NO YOU!"

"YOU FIRST!"

"ENOUGH!" SAd0 screeched, tired of their childish argument. "Why don't you two settle it with Rock, Paper, Scissors? That way, It's easier to decide who gets who."

"...Good idea!" Krily said.

"Fine. But I'm going to win!" Rinzar said.

"Really? If you're really going win like you said you will, then this round will be enough for you?" Krily taunted.

"One round is all I need!"He declared. They both then huddled up and glared at each other before they started.

"Rock, Paper, Scissors! SHOOT!" They all shouted. Rinzar had Scissors and Krily...had Rock.

"SONOVABITCH! ARRGH!" Rinzar cried in frustration.

"YAY! I get the Noob! Now if you excuse me..." Krily said as she took out her staff and left Rinzar to his frustrations.

"Well, it can't be all bad, right?" I'll just revive at the place where I last saved, right?" Dominic said to himself.

"Yeah, no." Chiyo lament.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Dominic asked.

"Well, that would happen if you were relying on that fancy black disc your red head friend used." Chiyo said.

"What do you mean by that?" Dominic asked.

"Well, I'll make this blunt. Since you're unknowingly relying on me on your disk, that puts you in a different situation. Meaning IF you die in the game, you're dead for real." Chiyo said bluntly.

"WAIT WHAT!" Dominic hissed.

"It seems you realize the situation you're in. Good, I love to see the look of fear on my prey's face." She said before she chanted a spell, "LEI ZAS!"

As soon as she said it, a bright ray of light shot forward at Dominic, who dodge rolled out of the way.

"Vak Don!" She shouts out another spell, causing fire balls fell from the sky and attempt to strike the young boy, but he eluded them at the last second.

"Rue Kruz!" She shouts out another. A small puddle of water appeared below Dominic and before he knew it, it shot up like a geyser, taking 30% of his health. Dominic landed on his back and in retrospect, it was not pleasant despite of the ground being virtual data.

"Ow..." Dominic groaned as he slowly and painfully got up to his feet. For a game, it really knows how to give out pure pain.

"Does it hurt? Good, because it's not going to end soon if you're hoping for that!" Krily started before she chanted another spell, "Ani Zot!"

Before Dominic knew it, a portal of darkness appeared below and before he had time to react, insect like arms and a centipede slithered out, taking out 40% of his health. Dominic weakly got on all fours, the pain pulsing in every fiber of his body.

"Hey Krily! Can you hurry it up? I got a meeting to attend to." SAd0 said.

"Don't worry, SAd0. It will be over before you know it after this!" Krily said. Dominic started sweating at that. She was going to finish it. If it hits, It's all over. Fear made was in Dominic's mind. He would die if it hit him completely.

"I DON'T WANT TO DIE! I DON'T WANT TO DIE!" Dominic said over and again as he shield himself from the upcoming spell.

"Hang on, Kid! I'll-!" Chiyo started before a miracle happened. Before Krily had the chance to finish the spell, a black haze engulfed the entire room in an instant. Visibility was zero for either side. Dominic didn't know what happened, but he was saved.

"Quick! Don't let them away!" Dominic heard Rinzar shout. He started sweating at that.

"Dominic! I'll save you!" He head Tokio declared. Dominic sweatdropped at that.

Before Dominic had a chance to move, he felt a hand on his shoulder. Dominic turned to see a man with blue hair and orange sunglasses. he wore mostly blue and white with bits of leather in the middle. Dominic saw that he had a strange cylinder-like container on his left arm, leaving him to wonder what's inside it.

"Uh.." Dominic stuttered out, unable to find the words the words.

"Let's go. It won't long before the haze clears." He said. Dominic nodded and followed. But not before alerting Tokio of where he is, getting the treasure thus completing the quest, and picking up Sora's recently awaken figure. At the moment they reach the Chaos Gate, Tokio appeared, less battered up than he was before.

"Let's go." The man said as he touched the gate. They then disappeared in a a blue spiral of light.

The haze cleared, but it showed the PKs that Dominic and his friends had escaped. Rinzar let every single detail of the very sight before him sink into his brain before he released two words to describe his rage.

"DAAAAAMMIT AAAAALLLLLLLLL!" He punched the ground in frustration several times.

In Mac Anu,

Dominic released a sigh of relief at the event that happened. Dominic was just glad it was over with. And it was thanks to the mysterious man that appeared at the last second.

"Thanks for saving us." Dominic said to the said man.

"It was only right to do so. It would be terrible if your first day on [The World] was an unpleasant one." He said.

"Well, it would be if you hadn't come." Dominic said.

"Yeah, thanks again." Sora said.

"You're welcome. Now if you excuse, I have business to attend to." He said before he walked away.

"Hmm, nice guy. He seem familiar for some reason." Tokio said.

"What do you mean?" Dominic asked.

"...Never mind. Probably some other Player I saw." Tokio said.

"Is that so?" Dominic murmured.

"Idiot..." Chiyo said in his head.

'You said it...' Dominic thought. While the trio were speaking with other, the man looked at them from a distance. Just before he turned and walked out the door, these words escaped his mouth.

"Welcome...to [The World]."
