Saori let out a sigh as she slowly opened her office door waving to the watcher who had been placed outside. "You may go now, I can handle just walking around the city."
The watcher looked at Saori but nodded, after all she was the boss right now. "Just be careful Ma'am."
Saori nodded back to him as she stepped outside onto the night streets, it was midnight real time and now was when the thieves would start acting up. She slowly began to patrol the streets waiting for a thief to show.
Verios walked silently along the road of a abandoned town, his spear clutched tightly in his right hand. The town was familiar, somehow... It was odd, but he knew he had been here before. He paused as he saw a group of figures fighting against a large hoard of skeletons. He continued his slow pace but paused when he saw a skeleton strike down one of the many players that were huddling together fighting the onslaught.
Normally, a skeleton was no problem at all. Even for the lower level players. But this one had taken down a... no.. not a player, a watcher! With a single blow from his sword no less! Verios then looked up to the sky, speeding up his pace as he began to run.
Overhead of the watchers was a large green shapeless form, he took note of it when the watcher was struck down. His body vanished normally, but small data fragments from his disappearing body had raised up into the form.
He now was in a sprint as he watcher three more watchers fall leaving only 4 left. He arrived into the hoard surrounding them slashing them aside with ease. His spear glowing red and cutting them like they were nothing. He made his way to the watchers and paused as he saw Saori leading them. He stepped back as she made eye contact with him and yelled something. He replied with a few words as he hacked away at some more skeletons.
The last 3 regular watchers attempted to cut a path forward, Saori pointing at them and yelling again. They paused but too late as 8 skeletons attacked them all at once disconnecting every last one of them. The fragments of data slowly raised to the form as it began to take shape, it shot out a blue line at Saori..................
Verios woke up in a heavy sweat looking about in a panic, he noticed his whereabouts and calmed down some breathing heavily.
"A dream.... It was a dream...?" He paused for the first time, questioning this power he was given. "I can dream... here?" He then shook his head slowly trying to get rid of the dream. "Why was Saori in it... and... he paused and placed a hand on his spear. "I mustn't think of such things..." He let out a sigh as he leaned on his arms once more....
