Manta sat up and started to wring out her hair. It was so thick and long that that task alone took another few minutes. "Yup! Also be careful around treasure chests... There are probably some trapped ones." She stood up and glanced around. There was only one hallway, but it seemed to go on forever, with lts of doors at seemingly random intervals on either side. "alets go!"

Manta ran out of the city, not even looking to see if Destiny was following her. She made her way east for a few minutes until she came to what was literally a hole in the ground. It was hidden by bushes but was revealed when Manta chopped them down. Inside the hole it was pitch black, and there was no way to tell how deep it went. "Come on" She jumped into the hole, just barely fitting with her arms by her sides. A few seconds later there came a loud splash. "Come on down. The waters warm!" Inside the hole was what appeared to be a dungeon. There were torches in the walls that sputtered with eery blue flame. Manta climbed out of the pool and lay on the chiseled stone floor, waiting for Destiny.

Manta walked up to the guild meeting place. It appeared that she was very late. "Sorry im late!" She sat down and glanced around. She didnt quite know what they were talking about, but she didnt want to interupt to ask. There seemed to be a slight lull in the conversation so she decided to announce what she wanted to do to help the guild. "Id like to help make potions for guild storage to help out with battles etcetera."

Manta listened as he explained further about the mob. She unsheathed her sword nervously, her smile shrinking bit by bit. Then the ground shook. Apparenly they were being attacked anyway. They didnt even have to go anywhere. How convenient... She still didnt understand what they were doing. "Hey. Sousuke... Are we switching out or are we all just attacking?" She glanced arpund nervously.

(yup)

Rewards:400col (total)

Pyro: 150

Destiny: 150

Manta: 100

Manta was just heading out of the city when she saw Destiny. She had been wanting someone to go hunting with and this was her chance. She ran over and yanked her to her feet before running off, Dragging Destiny behind her. "Come on. I heard about this cool cave dungeon ting infested with werewolve and treasure! If we dont hurry it will all be gone!"

Manta stood up as well. "I have to be goinggoo. See you later Pyro. And you too Destiny!" She called out as she headed for the exit. She was glad that that conversation was over. She had been starting to get nervous.

Manta stared at Pyro who was sitting there with a mug on her head. Then Destiny did some weird ballerina dive behind a counter. was Manta high? Was it possible to be kissed sensless? and to see hallucinations too? Well it was definately worth it if so. She sighed and relaxed in her chair. That had been the best thing shed ever done. She decided to just ignore the hallucinations. Or if they happened to be real... Well if they did then Manta was going to prank them so hard they never left their houses again for fear of embarrassment. Just for interrupting her first kiss.

(Lets try to keep this pg-13...)

Manta's face turned red like a tomato and it felt like her ears were on fire. She was so embarrassed. Now all she could think about were shirtless guys. She wondered what Sousuke would look like without a shirt. She shook her head and turned back to the other two, her face still the color of a tomato. "I-i-i-i-i." She said, all of a sudden developing the stutters.

Manta kissed him back. It felt like they had been made for each other. It was literally a earthshaking kiss. She felt her knees go weak and she was glad she was sitting down. She could feel her heart pumping like crazy. It just seemed so right. She wasn't about to break the kiss, even if people were watching them. She was sure they were, even though she couldn't tell because her eyes were closed.

".... I'd rather not fill in the blanks." Manta said. She didn't feel like being turned on for the whole day. She blushed and looked away from the table, away from Pyro and Destiny. She didn't want them to see her blushing.

Her breath quickened slightly when he told her to close her eyes. She closed them and puckered her lips so slightly that it was almost unnoticeable. Apparently all she had had to do was mention them kissing. Her heart pounded in her chest, feeling like it was going to shoot out any second.

"Well... Six packs are very sexy..." Manta finished her drink and set it down on the table. Was this what friends did when they hung out together? She assumed so. It was... Nice. She hadn't had any real life friends, and most of her friends in VRMMOs were more of acquaintances, people to help her reach her goal. A better word to describe them would be contacts.

( I was unaware there was a two handed boost... They should probably put that in the rule book... Also I forgot to say that my last dice roll got a 10 on CD. So I got 1 hp back from my battle healing skill, basically negating the bleed for that turn)

Manta slipped in closer to him, before striking like a  manta ray. Or like a cobra. Either one of those analogies worked. She stabbed him in the chest and then pulled away, mind fully focused on the battle at hand, not even noticing the crowd that had surrounded them and was cheering like crazy.

Manta: 11/15

Argumail: 7/11

"There doesnt need to be an occasion does there? It's just a date. Where a guy and a girl meet up and talk... And possibly kiss..." She said it as casually as she could. She knew she had to wait until the right moment to use "the kissy face" as Akio had called it. She hoped she wouldn't regret taking his advice. She didn't know how to get to the point that she wanted too. .... Maybe she should tell him to kiss her? No... That was just weird...

Manta went inside. It appeared that he, thankfully, wasn't allergic to chocolate. Oh wait, it didn't matter, they were in a VRMMO. She still forgot sometimes. She went in and waited in line for a minute or so before ordering two extra large hot chocolates with extra whipped cream and extra marshmallows. They came out within the minute. The cafe really did have great service. She payed for the drinks with her own money. Sousuke had payed last time so she was going to pay this time. She went and found a nice two seat table and sat down, before placing one of the hot chocolates on the other side of the table for Sousuke. It was literally towering with whipped cream and marshmallows, almost to the point of insanity.

(Would only do 2 damage because of my damage mitigation)

Manta grunted as she was thrown to the ground, but she wasn't about to just lie there and let him hit her again. She got to her feet and circled for a second before swinging her blade at his neck. She misjudged and missed by a millimeter though. She backed up and went on the defensive.

Manta: 12/15 (Im not quite sure how bleeding works... How many turns does it last?)

Liam: 9/11

Manta hadn't really thought that far ahead. She stuttered a bit. "W-well....." There was a long pause. "We're going to a cafe and were going to get some hot chocolate." She finally decided on something. Just watch him be allergic to chocolate... She thought to herself.

Manta decided that if she was going to give him the majority of the payment first, that he might as well give it all. She transferred the nine materials to him as well as the 200 col. "Here you go. Thank you. Oh, and can you try to make it quickly? I have a duel in a few days." She glanced over at him once and smiled before walking out of the shop. She would return later to check up on the progress.

(I guess we'll just go without any posting order)

"Hey Sousuke! Im taking you out on a date!" She declared, smiling mischievously at him before starting to walk away. She had decided that it was time to "take hold of the reigns" or whatever the saying was. It wasn't that she needed to have her first kiss soon, it was just that she wanted to have it so that she could brag about it. And plus, Sousuke looked really kissable.

Manta sat in her usual spot on the fountain. Once again it was nearing sunset, but that was still a few hours to come. She had just pmed Sousuke to see if wanted to hang out. She had some tips from Akio, her newest friend about how to get a guy to kiss you, and she was all set to try it out. But in her own way. She wanted her first kiss to be special. She did have a prank planned for him, but she decided she wanted to save it for later.

Manta started to wonder what she was doing there... A good three hits would kill her! Permanently. Her buffs ought to help her out though. She slipped off Sousuke's back and moved to stand next to him. "As I asked before, what about monster grenades? Do those work?" She smiled, trying to show a brave face when in reality she was terrified. This creature seemed to be amazingly powerful, almost like a floor boss. Especially it's counter attacks. That was basically a death sentence to anyone who was based solely on offensive capabilities. Good thing she had been working on her battle healing ability.

Manta sprinted forward, dragging the tip of her sword in the ground dramatically before swiping it in front of her, slicing one of the tusks off. Apparently it was the wrong tusk to cut off as the other one stabbed her in the leg, leaving a glowing red mark. Her smile got slightly smaller as she concentrated on what she was doing. She raised her sword again to chop down on it's head but it moved away too fast.

Manta:14/15

She swung her sward at it and missed, throwing her off balance. She fell to the ground, just missing the swipe of the boars razor sharp tusk. She stood back up and swung her sword wildly, the blade slicing into the boar three times violently. She took a step back and prepared to charge forward.

Boar: 5/8
