Ceremony

Lulu had just woken up, he stretched, still lying on his bed yawning. He turned over and suddenly noticed something peeking from his door. His eyes were still blurry from just waking up, so he squinted and looked harder. Slowly, it started to come into focus, it was a head.

“ARRGH!” Lulu yelped in shock.

“What!?” his mom asked, confused, her messy hair sticking out, clearly, she had just woken up too.

“Mom!? What are you doing there!? I thought it was a ghost!”

“I just wanted to ask did your school tell you anything about a ceremony today?”

Lulu grabbed his phone and checked. “Noo…”

“Wanna go check it out and eat outside?”

“Oook”

**

They on the car, both wearing black, passed by the school, they looked out the window and saw there’s indeed a ceremony, a lot of people gathering, some holding flowers, some crying.

“Ohh there is,” mom said softly, then she said, “let’s go eat first and buy some flowers.”

“Mm,” Lulu replied as he kept looking at the school, watching all the people and the flowers, feeling sad.

**

Lulu and his mom now at the school, both holding flower banquets. There’s a broad set up showing pictures of the deceased students. Lulu didn’t know any of them, but still, seeing so many people cry, seeing the sadness in the air, he felt deeply sorry. Before he realized, a small tear rolled out, he quickly wiped it away.

Then quietly, Lulu and his mom stepped forward, placed their banquets down, and prayed for them.

“Let’s go home…” mom said softly with a warm smile.

“Mm…” Lulu replied quietly.

**

They got back home. Lulu went to take a bath, then afterward, he sat down and opened Dungeon Challengers.

He’s inside the fulgurite dungeon alone. He opened his friend list, there were four friend, Rainy, Chu, Sae, and Velkhar. But none of them were online right now.

Suddenly, a player wearing a full black cloak, completely covering his whole body, and a black mask appeared right in front of Lulu and typed “Leave Rainy alone.”

Lulu right clicked the player:

Hour: Private

Name: Anonymous

Gender: Male

Relationship: Single

Coin: Private

Status: shhhhh

“Why?” Lulu replied.

“Do you know about the Anonymous gang?” Anonymous typed.

“Yeah…”

“Good, because I’m part of the Anonymous gang. So don’t ask why, just listen to me and do as I say kid, becasue if u don’t listen, I will hack ur mom bank account. Do u understand? Lucien”

Lulu’s eyes widened, heart pounding, shocked and scared. He quickly typed, “OK, please don’t hack my mom’s bank account…”

“Good boy. So what I want u to do is delete this game, and also, tell Rainy u hate her. Don’t tell her anything about me and u. Just ignore her after u tell her u hate her, and disappear. Do u understand? If u don’t do as I say, say byebye to ur mom bank account.”

“Okok…” Lulu typed, hands shaking.

“Good boy”

Then, the anonymous suddenly stabbed Lulu’s character with a knife. It killed Lulu instantly.

Lulu quickly logged out of the game immediately. Trembling, he did what anonymous said, he deleted the game and send the I hate u message to rainy.

He couldn’t send it at first, shaking, but for his mom’s bank account safety, he sent it.

Afterward, Lulu crawled into his bed, wrapped himself tightly in his blanket. All the heavy feelings from today, the sadness, the fear, piled on top of him. He cried quietly.

**

Hours passed, lulu still laying on his bed depressed, his phone dinged, he slowly picked it up and looked, it’s message from rainy, she typed “why?” lulu stared at it for a while, then put his phone back, pulled his blanket and hide inside again.

**

Rainy walked alone in the Fulgurite dungeon, wondering what happened to Lulu. She opened her friend list and noticed Sae was online in her packed list. Rainy quickly messaged Sae, “Did Lulu say he hate u?”

“No?!” Sae replied.

“He said that to me…”

“Why?! U two fight?!”

“No…”

“Then why?”

“Idk.. I asked why, but he didn’t replied…”

“I’ll try talk to him” sae typed.

**

Lulu’s phone dinged again. He looked at it and saw a message from Sae, “lulu, why do u hate rainy?”

“Sorry, it’s for my mom bank account safety…” lulu replied.

“What?!?”

“A hacker told me to said that to rainy, if I don’t do as he said, he gonna hack my mom bank account”

“Tell me anything u know about the hacker, I’ll protect u”

Seeing Sae’s message gave Lulu hope.

“He play dungeon challengers too, that where we meet, his name is anonymous, his profile is mostly private, and he said he’s from the anonymous gang, that all I know about him..”

“Does he wore a black cloak and a black mask and has a knife?!?!”

“YES! U KNOW HIM?!”

“HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA”

“??!?”

“u are so innocent and pure hahahhaha, who ever he is, he’s no hacker capable of hacking bank lmao”

“What really!? But he know my real name, and he could kill me, instantly too”

“It could be because someone tell him ur name or he heard it somewhere? Or u tell him about it and forgot?” Sae typed, then she added “ that hack he’s using it’s a hack everyone can use and learn in Mytube HAHAHA”

“Ohhhh…”

“That hacker definitely love rainy and jealous that ur closer to her, so he tried to make u get away from her lmao” Sae typed.

“So my mom bank account is safe?”

“Definitely won’t be hacked by that anonymous kid that I can guarantee u”

Lulu reliefs , then he typed “what kind of hack is that?”

“It’s a hack that give u cloak that allowed u to go invisible, flying, run fast, high hp and high durability and a knife that can kill anything in an instant”

“Ohhh, why no admin ban him?!”

“Probably because they didn’t know he existed right now, admin are human too, they can’t see everywhere at the same time, If u report him, then he definitely will get ban”

“Ohhh!”

“But don’t report him yet” sae typed

“Why?”

“Because I want to do something that make him feel very uncomfortable before getting him ban, it’s more fun and satisfying that way right!!”

“YEAH”

A message from Rainy, “HAHAHAHAHHAA” she typed

“😢” lulu replied.

“It’s okay, someone tried to do that to me too before” Rainy typed ,then she added “but I didn’t get fooled tho HAHAHHA”

“I FEEL SO STUPID!! HAHAHA,” Lulu laughed in real life as he typed that.

“HAHAHHA”

Rainy voice call lulu, he accept it.

“Why u accept my call?? U don’t care about ur mom bank account?” Rainy said

“STOPP HAHAHAHAH,” Lulu embarrassedly replied, hiding in his blanket while curling up, with the hand holding the phone outside the blanket.

“HAHAHAHHA,” Rainy laughed.

“HAHAHHAA,” Lulu getting out of his blanket and laughed too.

Sae created a group in Thiscord and invited Rainy, Lulu and Velkhar.

“Wanna group call here and talk about the plan?” Sae type.

“Sure” rainy replied.

Then Rainy and Lulu ended the voice call and joined the group call.

“Wait! Rainy is here Lulu, are you sure you wanna be here now?” Sae said.

“I KNOW I’M STUPID, OKAY?!” Lulu replied.

“HAHAHAHAHAHA!” everyone laughed at Lulu.

“HAHAHAHAUUUGHH!” Lulu laughed, embarrassed and mad, pressing his face into his pillow. Then he said, “Let’s talk about the plan already!!”

“Ahahaha, okay, okay, let’s stop and get to the point already,” Sae said as she slowly stopped laughing, with Rainy and Velkhar doing the same.

“So my plan is… uh…” Sae thinking. “Let Lulu and Rainy be together to lure him out, then Rainy says she hates him and prefers Lulu more. Then we’ll blast out and kill him, and then report him. What do you think? Want to add any ideas?” Sae asked.

“Hahahah” Rainy and Lulu laughed.

“Shouldn’t we find out what his main account is first?” Velkhar said.

“Oh, yeah, right! It’s pointless just banning that hack account,” Sae replied.

“But how do we find him??” Lulu said.

“I think I know who it is, but I’m not very sure…” Rainy said.

“Wow! What the heck?! I just realized your voice is so sexy, Rainy. I feel like I’m about to turn lesbian…” Sae said.

“Hahahhaa” Rainy and Lulu laughed.

“ So, who is it, Rainy?” Sae asked.

“It’s a guy named Kelvin. He’s been nonstop trying to make people believe I’m his girlfriend. He even created a fake account of me chatting about love and sex with him in Thiscord. I’ve told him to stop, but he said he’ll only stop if I be his girlfriend or show him my nude,” Rainy said.

“SERIOUSLY?! IT’S DEFINITELY HIM!!! But just in case it’s not, let’s try to make him expose himself first. Like, say something to him like…” Sae said, then she used a funny voice and tone and went, “WoOw… last time I saw a hacker kill someone, it made me fall in love at first sight, because my type is hackers. Just to see if he would reveal his secret identity.”

“HAHAHA!” Lulu laughed.

“HAHAHAHA, okayokay! Let’s try that!” Rainy laughed.

“Okay! Let’s go!!” Sae said.

Lulu restored Dungeon Challengers from the bin and logged into the game.

**

They are in game now.

“Is he online?” Sae asked

“I’m looking” rainy said as she looked at her friendlist.

Suddenly, Lulu yelled, “HES HERE HES HERE!”

**

Inside the hospital in Sahanah Kingdom, Lulu and Anonymous were staring at each other.

“Where?!” Rainy said.

“In the hospital in Sahanah Kingdom,” Lulu replied.

“I’m coming!” Rainy said.

“Wait, wait, wait!! Don’t go!” Sae said. “Lulu, are you talking with him right now?”

“He’s talking to me right now, he said why am I here, and gave me 10 sec to leave now,” Lulu said.

“What did you reply?” Sae asked.

“I didn’t type anything yet.”

“Ok, tell him, why are you doing this to me? Is it because you think I like Rainy?” Sae said. “Tell me what he replies.”

“Ok,” Lulu replied, then typed as Sae said.

“Ur not?” Anonymous typed.

“He said ur not question mark,” Lulu said.

“Reply, yeah, because she has someone she’s interested in already,” Sae said.

And Lulu did as Sae said and replied that.

“What? Who?!?” Anonymous typed.

“He replied what who question mark,” Lulu said.

“Tell him that it’s a guy named Kelvin,” Sae said.

Lulu replied that, then Anonymous immediately disappeared.

“He disappeared!” Lulu said.

“He just disappeared? He didn’t reply anything after you told him it’s Kelvin?!” Sae said.

“Yeah, he just gone,” Lulu replied.

“HAHAHA, YEAH, IT’S DEFINITELY HIM! HE’S DEFINITELY LOGGING INTO HIS ACCOUNT NOW TO TALK WITH RAINY,” Sae said.

“HAHAHA” everyone laughed.

After a few second pass by.

“AHAHAHA, IT IS HIM! He DM’d me saying, heyyy, how are you, you know I liked you, why didn’t you just tell me that you’re interested in me?” Rainy said.

“AHHAHAHHAA” everyone laughed.

“WHAT SHOULD I SAY?” Rainy asked.

“UHH, okay, say, Because I’m too shy… oh by the way, do you know how to hack in this game?” Sae said.

Rainy replied that.

“He said yeah, he knows how to!” Rainy said.

“Okok! Now report him and write in the report: he’s a hacker, but don’t ban him yet, because me and my friends want to punish him first,” Sae said. “Then find a place and tell him to show you his hack there.”

“Ok!” Rainy replied.

After a few minutes, Rainy exclaimed, “In Lavand! At the Death Volcano!”

“OK, LET’S GO KILL HIM! Bae, you go get Lulu,” Sae said.

“K,” Velkhar replied.

“But can we even hurt him?” Lulu asked.

“Of course we can, the system treats them as monsters, that’s why they can hurt us and we can hurt them too,” Sae explained.

“Ohhh,” Lulu replied, then he saw Velkhar with his unicorn come and pick him up, and they flew away into the sky, with Sae in the distance riding her cute bird.

**

Rainy, riding her dragon, saw Anonymous near the Death Volcano. The ground here was dark, and there were many dark spires, some tall, some short. Only Rainy and Anonymous were here. She landed in front of him and typed, “Kelvin?”

“Yes,” he replied. “Rainy.”

“Ya?”

“After I show you my hack, can you show me your nude in return?”

“Uhhhh, but I’m too shy…” Rainy replied, then she said in voice chat, “Where you guys at now? I don’t think I could wait any longer to kill this pervert already, he asked me to show him my nude in return!!”

“We’re there soon!! Hold your anger for a little bit longer!!” Sae said.

Kelvin typed, “It’s okay, don’t be shy, these are normal thing couple do”

“But I’m scared,” Rainy replied. “What if you post it online?”

“I promise I won’t, no way I’ll show other people my sweetheart’s beautiful body.”

“RELEASE YOUR BLACK SMOKE NOW, RAINY!” Sae yelled.

Rainy immediately released her black smoke. She also summoned her bats and wolves and charged up her fireball. Then, falling from the sky was Sae. Sae yelled “ARGHH!” as she fell, landing in the smoke and freezing the surroundings with her axe. Velkhar shot a ball of wind into the smoke from above while riding his unicorn. The wind blew the smoke away, revealing only Sae, Rainy, and her bats, Kelvin was nowhere to be seen.

Then they saw Rainy’s wolves running to somewhere.

Then Lulu saw the wolves suddenly running back toward Rainy and Sae’s direction from above. Lulu quickly aimed and shot a fire arrow in front of the wolves, it hit the invisible Kelvin.

“WOW!” Sae and Rainy were amazed.

“Nice shot!” Velkhar said, also amazed.

“Hehe,” Lulu felt proud and smirked.

The burning effect kept revealing Kelvin, he was holding his deathly knife. Rainy fired her huge explosive fireball at Kelvin, BOOOOOM! Kelvin ran out from the smoke very fast to Sae and got hit by Lulu’s arrow and Velkar wind slashes right away. Sae sent a freeze slash while Rainy kept spamming her fireballs at Kelvin.

Kelvin wasn’t stopped by those attacks, he continued tanking it and running very fast forward. As he was about to get closer to Sae, Velkhar flew his unicorn and landed in front of her, releasing his flash light, blinding Kelvin, who then got hit by Lulu’s arrow again. Kelvin quickly flew away to escape, but as he was flying off, A very fast flame descending from above, slammed into Kelvin, and drove him into the ground, BAAAAAAAANNNG.

It was Admin Flamy.

“Wuohoho!” they all were amazed as they watched Flamy attack Kelvin.

Flamy released an extremely hot fire, burning Kelvin whole, turned him to ash. Then Flamy flew to them and typed, “Thanks for the report and your justice behavior,” then rewarded them each one tournament coin.

“THANK YOU SO MWACK!!” Sae typed as she said, “Wuohohoho!” while holding the TC coin.

“THX,” Rainy and Lulu typed.

“Thx,” Velkhar typed.

“Have fun!!” Flamy replied. Then she flew away into the sky very fast, so fast it broke the sound barrier three times.

“Wow…” Lulu and Rainy said as they were amazed at Flamy’s speed.

Suddenly, Chu flew by in the sky on her dragon. “What are u guys doing in a place like this? U guys thought there were monsters to farm here?! HAHAHAHA SO STUPID” she typed.

“We just hunted down a hacker together and earned one TC!” Sae replied.

“WHAT!!! WHY NOBODY INVITE ME?!!! I WANNA HUNT HACKERS TOO!!
