" do you think people that did equal bad and good in their life go to heaven or hell ? , or do they have to flip a coin or something to decide their fate ? " Rick asked Racko
" I WOULD ANSWER IF WE WEREN'T RUNNING FOR OUR DAMN LIVES RIGHT NOW ! DON'T YOU HAVE SITUATIONAL AWARENESS OR SOMETHING DUDE ?!? " Racko said running beside Rick
" We I am kind of coming to terms with the fact they were are most likely gonna die a greusome death while screaming our lungs out , so I'm not phased out... " Rick said accepting his fate
" HEY ! Look at me ! We are gonna survive this ! We're gonna sell our god-damn tablets , get rich and rule the server , you got it ?! " Racko said trying to raise Rick's spirit
Then suddenly Racko spotted something in the distance.
" HEY LOOK THATS THE SPAWN AREA, I SEE IT !!!! " Racko said pointing forwards
" OH YEAH THATS THE SPAWN ! WE MIGHT ACTUALLY SURVIVE !!!! " Rick said as hope apeared in his eyes
" Just one final push , don't let those legs slow down !!!! " Racko said as a smile of relief appeared on his face
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" This leaf is bitter in taste , I think I have seen this leaf somewhere in real life , I will do a little research once I get out this game . " The leader of the gaming clan thought
He had gathered some small but valuable information about the world on his little outside excursion. Like for example he noticed that there was much wildlife in the world apart from insects and birds or rather there was no wildlife of interest in the spawn.
he also noticed that the pain sensation in the game was numbed , not as much as the industry average which was 80% but somewhere between 40 to 50% and there was no option to turn if off.
He also looked at a bunch of trees, plants and bushes in the area and planned to look them up to see if they were inspired by the real world and had some uses to help him in the game world like being a medicinal herb.
" Have been out for about an hour , should probably get some good sleep before next day starts " he thought
CRASH !
suddenly someone crashed into him at full speed , knocking the both of them onto the ground.
" WHO THE HELL WAS THAT ! CAN'T YOU SEE WHERE YOUR GOING ! DAMN CYCLOPS" He shouted at the other guy
" Oh I'm really sorry , I Just didn't see you there I didn't mean to hurt you I'm sorry " Rick said as he apologized felling really bad for his actions
" It doesn't matter if meant it or not , I got hurt the same , why the hell were you running like a mad-man either way ? " He asked Rick
" HEY RICK ! where did you go ! " Racko called out to him
" I'm here Racko ! , I just crashed into someone , don't worry I'm fine " Rick said " and I'm Rick, not the best first impression but nice to meet you ... Randow person ? What's your name so by the way ? " Rick said as he extended a hand to him
" Just call me boss or leader , that's what everyone else does " he said ,he brushed Rick's hand away and got up on his own " I'm not that weak to require someone's hand to get up "
" But your not our boss nor leader so why should we call you that , look man if you have a embarassing name just say we won't make fun of you, Promise ! " Racko said interjecting
" No I don't have a embarassing name... Ahh screw it I'm not some famous celebrity, name's Trevor " Trevor did not want to engage in pointless conversation
" Well we don't have time right now Trevor start running right this moment ! Or else you're dead ! " Racko said warning him about the tribals
" Who are you running from I don't see , nor hear anything coming our way ? " Trevor said confused , he then brushed some dirt that got on his clothes
" Wait , now that he mentions it I also haven't heard the tribals for quite some time " Rick said as he looked around for the tribals
" Yeah because they stopped at a cave we saw earlier don't you remember ? , that's why I'm saying to run so we can get as far as possible from them " Racko said
" Wait a minute whatn tribals and what cave ! Are you referring to the cave near the spawn or some other cave you found on the way ?! " Trevor asked in a sharp tone
" The one near spawn ? Why , you left your stuff there ? " Racko asked
As soon as Trevor heard him say that he started sprinting towards the direction of the cave without a second thought.
" HEY THATS THE DIRECTION OF THE CAVE ! YOU WANNA DIE OR SOMETHING ?!? GOD-DAMN IT , RICK FOLLOW ME !!" Racko said as he too started running behind Trevor trying to stop from going to the cave
" Ah shit we're gonna die " Rick thought as he followed behind Racko
" Shit ! shit ! shit ! why the hell in the middle of the night ! I shouldn't worry too much as I said people to stand guard they will at the least won't be slaughtered in their sleep " a multitude of thoughts sprang into his mind as uncertainty clouded his mind
" HEY LOOK TREVOR MAYBE THE TRIBALS DIDN'T ENTER YOUR CAVE AND STEAL YOUR STUFF ! JUST DON'T GO IN THAT DIRECTION THOSE TRIBALS WILL RIP YOU TO SHREDS " Racko shouted from behind him
" Screw off ! I don't need someone to tell me what to do and what not to do got that ? " Trevor fired back
" I CAN'T JUST LET SOMEONE GO INTO THEIR DEATH , AND ESPECIALLY NOT IF THEY DO IT RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME ! " Racko also fired back
" why am I stuck between a suicidal person and a person trying to save that suicidal person by also committing sucide?!?! " Rick thought as he unwantingly followed behind
Trevor and Racko continued to argue , Racko wanting Trevor to stop and save his life , but Trevor just started to ignore him and continued running, but as they got closer and closer to the cave they started hearing shouts and screams.
As Trevor dashed out of the clearing to the entrance of the cave his saw his most feared scenario playing out...
He saw in the crystal moonlight about 4 dozen men spread out in the forest floor , their shouts and screams apparent as they engaged in blood and gore filled fights...
Most of the people were fighting with their preferred tool , some used the axe because of its sharpness, some used the hammer because of its blunt force and some just fought with their good old hands. The tribals also did not back down and continued to fight.
" Shit ! At this rate even if we win the battle most of if not all the team memebrs has to log off because of injuries ! No ! I can't afford the waste in time ! " Trevor thought
" HEY THE BOSS CAME ! " Someone shouted among the chaos
Suddenly all the players eyes turned to look at their boss , while the tribals also looked at this new face.
" I SAID SLOW DOWN YOU SUICIDAL MANI- " Racko shouted from behind as he leaped out of the bushes to meet Trevor " uhh... What the hell is going on ?!?! "
" Guys I think we are about to reach the cave we should all st- " Rick said as he too leaped out to meet both Trevor and Racko , Rick was too dumbfounded to even say anything after seeing the chaos unfold
" Rororo voryto mytoko !!! " A tribal shouted while he pointed at Trevor
Suddenly without a second thought two tribals made a run straight towards Trevor.
" They're targetting you boss ! Be careful" one of the players shouted
" You two shit-heads said you won't let me kill myself huh ? I assume if want to do that you gotta help me out with these tribals " he said as he took his axe out of his belt
" I don't think that's how saving people goes ,but I can't just run away now after having come soo far just to save your ass can I ? " Racko said as he pulled his hammer out
" We could have absolutely avoided this situation if both of you weren't numb skulls ! Well it's no use over crying spilled milk now is it huh ? " Rick said as he got in a boxing stance
" lucky for you guys I've been practicing boxing for 2 years , so i think I can hold my own ! "
