"Those poor, poor humans. They have no idea what they have gotten themselves into... but who will be first on our meals? Maybe the boy we threw, he seems like an easy target. Also that woman, we do not need people in this house who could disrupt our plans. She needs to go. The rest can have fun with the others of this house, they wont last long.. no one does here." He creature, a long with a chorus of other voices, began to laugh and scheme on how to kill the players in the best way possible, they were long overdue for a show.

@Telrenya

"Oh Tel! I'm so happy you are alright!" Jomei hugged Telrenya tightly, holding her and not wanting to let go. The ginger let her go and started to lead her off towards the west of the mansion, not saying anything for a moment. "I think I saw a window this way, we might be able to jump to our freedom. We can be safe." Jomei seemed very interested in Telrenya's well being, but also going into this other room. Jomei led Telrenya to the unfinished area of the mansion, the walls painted slightly, and loose boards around, except for one section of the building. "Tel? Oh Tel!" A new voice called from inside the room... a voice she knew all to well.

@Jomei

"Hunny, please I want to be alone for a moment..." She muttered and clung to him, seeming as though she Is getting overwhelmed. She dragged Jomei to a hallway outside of an unfinished section and kissed him softly. "Okay, I'm sorry hunny I just couldn't be around them all." She muttered and sat on the floor, looking at Jomei. "I love you.. you know that right?" She gave a soft smile to him and looked around, almost like she didn't see the shadow slowly forming behind Jomei…

@Ruby

"Ruby! Oh Ruby!" Jevi called to her, waving at her in the hallway of the second floor. She smiled and beckoned the woman over. Jevi seemed alright, but maybe also a little flirtatious. The door to the den slowly started to open and the lights were on, an inviting area. "Ruby follow me. We really need to talk about something important." She winked and slowly walked into the Den, swaying her hips seductively as she did.

@Kairi

A hand slowly brushed Kairi's hair, smiling as she did. "I've missed you Kairi, I think I've made a mistake." Hestia frowned and took Kairi's hands. "Please, can we talk in private? I can't do this in front of everyone, I don't want them to judge." She blushed and dragged Kairi to the Dining Room near the hallway, opposite side where 'Jevi' and Ruby entered. Hestia kissed Kairi's cheek as the two of them entered.

He creature, a long with a chorus of other voices, began to laugh and scheme on how to kill the players in the best way possible, they were long overdue for a show.

"Hello! Hello! Noot!? Oh god Noot! Please tell me you are okay!" Spencer woke up from his throw with a start, not knowing where he was or how he got there. Seeing the dimly lit room and the bookcase next to him sealed what he thought was correct. Back in this mansion... by myself... locked in a room. Wow, this hasn't happened before. He groaned and slowly stood up, looking around the room. He couldn't tell much about the room itself, but he knew that something lived down here.... or something was going to be coming back soon. Spencer got on to wobbly legs and started to slowly walk around the room, not sure exactly where he was going, a little nervous about that to be fair. "Okay... First things first, get out of the basement." He muttered, and a hand landed on his shoulder. "Oh Spencer Spencer Spencer… you aren't leaving." Spencer gasped and turned to see Ryo, but he knew something was wrong. His face was.... altered. He couldn't put a finger on it, but he knew something was wrong. "Nope!" He yelled and turned, running for a hallway he saw. Wait what? People are being imitated now? I hope just to me. He thought to himself grimly.

@Hestia

 "Hestia...." A voice on the wind whispered to the tank, the others paying no mind to it. The woman wouldn't noticed it that much, but a light coming from down the hall was right in her line of sight. The others in her group started walking towards the light, not saying anything but just walking, almost like they were in a trance. "Come on Hestia!" Telrenya said, flashing her a smile as they walked in the Master Bedroom. A cackle could barely be heard along the air of the mansion, but it almost sounded like the creaking of the house itself.

@Jevi @Ryo

The vines slowly fell from the two players Jevi and Ryo, going back to their original place on the walls of the large mansion. The shadow creature watched from the background, annoyed that the third woman was taken as well. "YOU RUINED MY PLANS." The creature screamed, grabbing Jevi by the arms. The creature's eyes changed to a crisp red, the anger uncontrollable for a moment. The creature almost struck Jevi in the chest, but it smiled quickly. "Don't worry your sweet head young woman, I have plans for your weak mind." It giggled and turned to Ryo. "And I have plans for you too, but you should be used to kidnapping shouldn't you?" It asked with another giggle before dissipating into the darkness.

@Teion

Teion was left on the stairs with the penguin, the statue slowly returning back to its original place, but its eyes were closed. Noot waddled and snuggled into Teion's arms, scared. Noot cried silently, missing his dad, but was happy to have his mother with him. Noot looked up and gasped, cowering in fear as a creature walked along the second floor landing, seeing Teion's friends. The creature waved to Teion before walking towards them all, getting ready to attack them all.

@Ryo@Hestia@Jevi@Teion

"Hestia! So help me god You don't know what happens in the mansion." He yelled at her, Ruby following suite with the bashing and yelling at her in a stern voice. Before Spencer could run after her, Teion and Ryo gave Spencer a shock that threw away the sudden panic and fear to happiness. "OH my god FINALLY!" He squeed in excitement and hugged the two of them tightly, so happy that they had finally gotten to get together at last. He knew that there was a tiny bit of pain in the back of his heart, but he knew that would also go away, Ryo's happiness really matters to Spencer, and he knew that this wonderful woman made him happy. Spencer smiled and let go, going back into nervous mode, holding Noot. Noot was playing with the item that Telrenya brought up, the little rubber ducky that Spencer nabbed from the previous mansion before it burned to the ground, grabbing it around the same time that he saved Telrenya from drowning. This is... A lot.... Okay. First things first, Get Ruby and Hestia out of the mansion, or at least safe, we have no idea what could be going on-

Spencer's thoughts got cut off by a deep growl sound resonating from within the mansion. "So nice of you four to come back...… and is this more prey for my feast? Sounds amazing to me... such gracious travelers. You're so sweet to bring others to me, I wont kill you all right off." The voice growled out like a rabid dog, and the forest came to life around them.

Trees seemed to gain sentients, and the path they took seemed to grow other in thick thorns, the trees walking to block the players in. "But I do apologies, you nine will never be leaving here again. Take that in now, because I want you all to suffer like we did." He growled again before going back to silence, the mansion seemed to glow with unsettling energy. "Okay new plan...." He muttered. Spencer gripped his mace and walked into the mansion, looking at Ruby and Hestia. "So, Hestia, welcome to murder mansion. There are traps probably scattered around the mansion, and you decided to enter the mansion, not sure why, but oh well at this point. We were able to break a window out last time and jump to our freedom, so maybe we can get out if there is an attic, but we need to find the entrance to the attic before we meet the creature that lives here, he almost killed us last time." He gave Ruby a look, he knew she remembered setting the mansion on fire with a make shift Molotov cocktail. "And Ruby, you think you can set this place on fire agai-" 

He was cut off by a large creaking noise coming from the second floor, and a chuckle. "Yeah, that will not work." With that, the shadow creature jumped to the floor of the mansion, but it looked different, more like a human. Spencer turned to strike it with his mace, to stun it. But it had other plans. Spencer was grabbed by the throat and thrown down the basement stairs, a loud yelp coming from him. A near by bookshelf landed over the stairs and blocked his escape. "Have fun finding your friend's remains. I'll be back to take seconds." It whispered and reached out to stroke Hestia's hair before vanishing, silence went over the remaining party of 8.

"Hey I might get in them more than I really should, but I can definitely get out of them. I've been trapped in enough to know what I'm doing, I was even able to escape a sand pit, I think I will be okay." He smiled and shrugged. He got the slight aversion for being around him, it seemed like traps and other things really do flock to him. If only they were good traps. If they were good I would have no problem with them at all, but most of the traps I've dealt with are not the best and really poorly made, maybe I will face some good ones, like the Haunted Mansion..... I miss that place, that is where I met everyone. Spencer smiled a bit in memories before Mars's conversation dragged him back to reality. Spencer nodded when Mars brought up his rival, the name still rang in his head. Spencer smiled a bit when he mentioned becoming the god of war. a hard idea to get to, but still it was a possibility if he really tried. "Well with what I have seen, I think you can make it. My plans are just get to know some of the people I've met recently, and hoping to hang out with my guild again, it has been a while since we all saw each other, but I'm not sure when to see them. Also, I'm planning on hopefully getting some more skills and becoming a decent paladin build, my friend Hestia is helping me a bit with that, she's a tank for the frontlines now." He bit his lip, the boss battle coming close was always giving him anxiety. Spencer noticed Mars went into a stance and Spencer got ready to attack anything that needed to come their way. "Quest Boss?" He asked Mars, getting his Shield out.

"Now that it has taken us so god dang long to actually get together and hang out, I just want to say hi!" Spencer looked at the group around him, Noot having a field day with running around to everyone and getting to know them all, also asking for a lot of attention and love, he is his father's son after all. "Now, I know it has been really long since we saw each other, so I was thinking, why don't we go back to where it all began? Also.... Anyone hear from Kimi? I asked her if she could come and she said maybe, didn't really give me a straight answer." She is busy lately, so I'm not surprised if she got caught up with something, but I do miss her a lot. Same with Piera..... I barely know her so that would be a bit weird to say I miss her, but she seemed really cool! Wonder what she has been up to. Spencer ignored his thoughts of his guild mates who weren't around, and looked around at everyone.

"Now I know 'Where it all began' sounds a bit ominous and weird, but Telrenya, Jomei, and Ruby should know what I mean, especially with what floor we are on." He smiled at the other three original HDA members, hoping they are catching what he means. "Now, when this guild started, I was still level 1, but I ran into a few higher levels one fateful day when I got locked inside a mansion, some of you might know what I'm talking about with some stories, but the rest of you have a bit of catching up to do. And with that, follow me!" Spencer felt like a very strange tour guide, but he didn't care. He MISSED them all so much, he would be as weird as he needed to be in order to get them all here.

The group began to walk the path that Spencer took to get to the mansion, alike the one the other three members took when Jomei won the first mansion. Spencer was giving snippets of information as they walked, taking over his tour guide role as they approached what Spencer thought was going to be a pile of ashes..... that is what he thought. "Oh no, Kayaba you've GOT to be kidding." He muttered and looked up, the Nightmare Mansion was back. "Jomei, Tel, Ruby... We have a problem.... It's in the same place but it looks..." He trailed off, this wasn't the small two story mansion they had found before.... Something was going on in this game, and it seemed the creature was not done with them yet. "SO uhhh. This isn't suppose to be here." He said to the rest of the group, both super anxious and nervous, but also a tad bit excited.

Spencer bit his lip when the group was finished killing the creature. Spencer walked up to Hestia and gave her a shallow smile. "S-sorry for just dipping out like that.. I knew I wasn't going to be any help, and I didn't just want to stand around with no ability to do anything and possibly get in everyone's way, but I will get better." He smiled at her softly and walked with Hestia and the gang, also including Itzal. "H-Hi, I don't think we have ever met, but my name is Spencer." He looked at the man and gave her a small smile and wave. He was a bit uncomfortable with the sudden inclusion of a random person thrown into the mix. Well, it will probably be a while before I ever.. ever do anything for a dungeon in a while. It just is so boring and also very difficult to deal with, but I know I will need to in the future, it helps with getting materials and Col, also a lot of experience, I know I'm just a level 16 player, but I know I will start to get stronger... I have to.

Spencer watched as the cave guardian slowly lumbered out of its hiding place and approached the two players. Spencer was a tad bit put off by the creature's appearance, but its stats weren't that bad, except for the first attack, and his attacks could really help with taking out the monster's health. Spencer gripped his mace tighter and looked over to Tyonis taking the safeguard potion the quest before gave to him. Spencer nodded a bit, happy that Tyonis was protecting himself. Spencer took a small step forward, it seemed to be only focused on Tyonis, so this was his chance. Spencer dashed forward and struck it hard in the back, the sound echoing off the dark cave's walls. The beast let out a mighty roar and quickly turned to face Spencer, the hate mechanic was now turned on his. Spencer bit his lip and got into a fighting stance, ready to take on whatever it was that was going to happen.

"Cybernetic eyes sounds painful, and if any sci-fi movie has taught me anything, is that they will get hacked and used to spy on you." He shrugged and smiled at Tyonis, the pair becoming closer friends, and they were also getting closer and closer to fighting this beast, what ever it was. I wonder if either of us will get seriously injured... I mean Tyonis does have the item right now to block the first attack, so I think the two of us will be okay for this fight, my HP I think can handle to first attack for sure, might just be a little stressful to keep moving on. He thought to himself for a moment, snapping out of his thoughts when Tyonis yelled something out about it being a trap, and ushering Spencer to get his mace ready. Spencer nodded and drew it, crouching a bit lower and looking for a movement. There was nothing for a moment, and Spencer was ready to tell Tyonis there might not be anything, but then something started to come. A loud rumbling noise from the darkness. "I think we found the monster." He said and looked at the solider.

"You're a musician? I wish I was good with singing or my voice. I'm meh at both, but music always is a favorite thing of mine." He smiled a bit and shrugged, he knew his musical ability wa severely limited, but that didn't bother him at all. This guy seems cool, I think the two of us would get a long quite well in the real world, I hope at least. I hope I'm not reading into it and he actually doesn't really like me but is just acting nice to be friendly. He sighed a bit and tried to force the not-so-nice thoughts out of his head and calm himself down a bit. When Shi asked him about Sign Language, his face lit up just a bit. "Well, it all started when I was watching a TV and it had a few deaf characters. At that point i knew Sign existed and I know like some of the alphabet, but that was it. However, as time progressed, I started to like non-verbal communication more and more, so it became a tiny bit of a hobby, but then it slowly grew to something I actually wanted to do in college."

"Hey, I don't try to get myself stuck in these situations, it kind of just happens. But look at it like this, all these things that I have been through prove to be some great stories and memories that I have made with people." He smiled and shrugged. He knew that he was pretty rare in terms of getting caught in so many trapped dungeons and things like that, so it was pretty weird to go through everything that he had, but he almost enjoyed it all, he got closer to some people during it which was very nice. When Mars talked about a bear who knew kung fo, Spencer laughed a bit until he saw Mars's serious face. "How in the hell.." He breathed, then heard the name that Mars said. " Wait Pinball? I recognize that name for some reason... I don't know why but I think I met him before." He muttered and looked around, trying to grasp at the memories of this man. Nothing was coming up, but he kept thinking fo the name Silver instead. He shrugged to himself and pushed the thoughts away, the journey of the two of them still continuing. Spencer looked around for a moment and then his eyes went back to his traveling companion. "So Mars, what are you plans for the next few days? Also what is your goal in SAO?"

Spencer watched the carnage of the beast and the players around him, and he slowly started to back up. He was genuinely worried for his life and the others, but he knew that there was nothing he could do. Maybe I'll just step back from all of this, I really don't want to get in anyones way. He felt a bit cowardly, and he knew that him acting like this kind of pushes forward the idea of him being weaker than everyone else, but he knew that he wasn't really helping out by standing around. Spencer decided to try to disengage from the battle, hoping that the monster would possibly not target Spencer. Luckily his prayers were answered and he was able to get away safely. "God I feel awful for running, but I can't let myself die, and they brought me alone, and I'm not dying in front of them no thank you ma'am, I'll be their cheerleader basically, not able to do much, but still here to help the best that I can." He muttered to himself and watched on.

Spencer smiled a tad bit sadly at Faye, he really did feel for the kid. Just last year he felt the same way he did. Being around so many higher levels just made him feel like he was never going to be good enough to fight and help out in battles. It really ate at him sometimes when he was around his guild, they were always going to be higher levels than him no matter what he did, and it really was starting to get to him, but knowing that he could help someone that was in his past situation right now, that made it feel a little better. But as the newer and more dangerous Nepent came closer, Spencer got ready to defend Faye. "Just let me know when you want to strike and I'll move out of the way for you." He smiled at him and got his mace ready. Spencer charged forward, but one of the vines shot out and knicked Spencer on the shoulder. He grimaced and kept running striking with his mace first, knocking the creature into the air, and then forward, slamming it with his shield and hitting it against the tree. The creature let out a mighty roar and disintegrated into blue crystals. "S-sorry, I guess I really didn't give you a chance to show your stuff."

"Hmm, I could tell the story about the haunted mansion." He muttered after Mars was done talking. He gave Mars a look and nodded. "I know, haunted things in this game? It wasn't as much haunted as it was just really really creepy and dangerous. It started with me being trapped inside of a mansion, with traps scattered everywhere. I had no idea where I was or why I was trapped, but for a while I could not get out at all. Then came along three players Jomei, Ruby, and Telrenya. Jomei won the mansion from an NPC, so when he accepted it, it locked it, with me inside. When they showed up, I had already messed with a lot of the traps in the house. I was locked away from them, and they started to get split up. I found Telrenya upstairs, almost drowning to death locked in the room, then I met Jomei and Ruby soon after. There apparently was an immortal object living in the basement that could only be killed by the traps (well we found that out later) and it started to attack us. We were able to save ourselves by tricking it into the traps and escaping out of the window, before we jumped out the window we set the mansion on fire. So that was pretty intense.... Hmm there's also how I got attacked by a mimic in an underground section of Floor 4... Got lost in caves on Floor 21... Ran from Zombies in a Pryamid.... Almost froze to death in an ice cave...... Wow my life is a lot more intense than I realized."

"Well maybe I want to be blind, did the game ever thing about that?" He laughed a bit and walked along the cave, not sure exactly what this was going to entail. He knew that it shouldn't be that difficult at the beginning, but he still was not looking forward to having to defeat all these other creatures. Hmm that enemy seems actually kind of difficult, kind of worrisome if you ask me, but I think the two of us can survive it, we are already half way done with all of this, we can make. Spencer psyched himself up a bit internally while Tyonis read off everything the book wrote about. Spencer approached more of the cave, and saw some light in the distance. "I think the gem is coming up soon. And I respect a snarky book, not everything has to be taken seriously, unlike that monster it described. It seems a bit difficult to fight, but I think we will have it handled." He smiled at Tyonis and the pair continued to walk down the cave path, the entrance being swallowed by darkness.

"Welp, too late now." He laughed when Tyonis commented on the comment Spencer sent out about the darkness. Spencer entered into the cave behind Tyonis, and almost got hit to the ground by bats. Spencer gasped and ducked down quickly, the birds flying over head. Spencer looked back at them and looked around, a bit irritated that that just happened. "You're right. Loud and annoying that is for sure." He muttered and looked around, getting ready to go into the darkness. The blackness felt like it was oozing all around them, and it was becoming difficult to feel comfortable as the pair started to venture even farther.

When Tyonis brought up the gem, and he shrugged. "Probably going to be glowing on a pedastol with a break of sunlight on it, these quests are definitely not for the super critical and intelligent, they are very simple." He muttered and looked around, dragging his hand along the wall as the two of them walked, he didn't want to run into it.

Spencer smiled and sat down on the sand, feeling satisfied that the Shark was going to bleed out and die in the sand so they didn't have to deal with it anymore. Spencer yawned a bit and looked up at the sun, Noot was snuggled against Spencer still, the man forgetting the penguin was there. "Noot! Are you okay?!" He said and pulled his penguin out, holding him in front of him, he got instantly worried for the adorable little bird, thinking he could have seriously hurt him. The penguin nooted happily and clung to Spencer's arm, waddling up it and jumping on to his shoulder, kissing his cheek. Spencer chuckled a bit and hugged the penguin, he loved how adorable he was sometimes, well all the time. Spencer got up form his sitting position on the desert floor, and walked towards Neo, holstering his mace, and putting his shield back on to his back. "So Neo, want to start heading back to the main area? I think we are done with this now."

Sand Shark, Bled to death.

"Nice to meet you Mars, and you too Vereox." He smiled and bent down a bit to wave at the familiar before getting back up and walking towards the direction of where they need to go, towards the butcher of the sands. He seems a bit prideful. Which I mean isn't that bad, just hoping that it doesn't get too bad where it pisses me off. I don't think it will get to that point though, which is nice to know. He thought to himself for a moment before continuing his walk with a more absent minded mind set. Spencer sighed and used his umbrella to block the light and felt Noot get on to his shoulder and snuggle into the fabric, being protected from the sun's harmful rays. "So Mars, how has your time on this game went? It took me a while to really start working on myself and leveling myself up. However, I did join a guild and even got a shop going, which is really nice. But I wish I was a lot higher leveled than I am now, little annoying that almost everyone I know is so much higher leveled than I am." He grumbled a bit in annoyance and walked towards the destination. "Also, how did you come upon your familiar? I haven't seen many like him and it is very interesting."

Spencer watched as the Shark came out of the attack it just landed, trying to swim away from the two of them for a breather. Neo, blessed be her, wasn't not having it at all. She came flying through and slashed at the shark, knocking it prone half in the sand. Spencer beamed brightly at her and ran forward while it was laying there for a moment, slamming hard down on to the beast. The shark roared in pain and slowly started to move again, burrowing itself into the ground again, but if it stayed down there for to long, it was going to die no matter what it did. "Neo, I think you just signed its death warrant. The thing has bleed on it, now no matter what it does, it will bleed out and die, nice work." He smiled at Neo and gave her a little applause, laughing a tiny bit. She seems to be a good fighter and a good teammate, I hope me and her can get to quest again together sometime soon.

Spencer turned just in time to watch as Faye fell to the forest ground. Spencer gasped and ran forward, using his shield to block any possible attacks. "Are you okay?" He looked closely at Faye, making sure he wasn't hurt. Spencer then turned to the Nepent who was charging an attack at the fallen boy. Spencer grimaced and charged forward, slamming his mace down on to its head. The mace cleaned right through its body, killing it on contact. Spencer's mace went through and struck the ground with a loud thud, the blue crystals dancing through the air and making his eyes glisten softly. Spencer holstered his mace and started to help Faye up, wiping some of the mud off of the man's shirt. "Are you feeling okay?" He said and bent down to look at the man at eye level.

Before he could say much more, he heard another noise, a bit more angry and deep in sounding. Spencer bit his lip and slowly turned to whatever it could be, but it was almost like the creatures the two of them had just fought... almost like them, but more evil. Spencer quickly got to his feet and held his shield it, the boss monster was starting to come towards them, making Spencer very nervous, but he knew he could take it. If it hits me more than once I can take it, I just need to make sure Faye stays safe, this thing could really hurt him.

ID: 102717 BD: 6 (3x4 = 12 Damage)

Spencer regarded the familiar with a soft smile, it seemed a bit prideful and full of itself, but it still seemed a bit cute. Noot came around from behind the player and looked up at the man, giving him a slow look. Noot waddled up to Spencer and sat on his foot. Spencer looked at the player for a moment, he never got a name from him. It seemed as though Noot didn't particularly like the man with the fire breathing familiar, which made Spencer a tad bit on edge. "Y-yeah I did, I didn't see much of a point of not using my real name, seemed a bit weird to go by a different name than the one I was born with." He shrugged and smiled a little bit at the man. "And my build is just a tank, well I beginning to start that build, I'm still a low level." He replied and looked at the quest the man was offering for him to look at. It was indeed the quest he was going to be taking with hopefully someone, he was just worried to be taking it with him is all. I wonder why he didn't give me his name, seems a bit weird to not reply with a name when you are also given a name.... Hmm maybe I can drag it out of him. Spencer thought of how bringing it up to him, but just decided to right out and ask him. "By the way I don't think I caught your name. My familiar's name is also Noot, my penguin." He smiled at the man, trying to show him that he is a good person and wont do any harm to him.

Spencer watched as Neo was able to make a successful attack on the creature, causing its HP to lower a bit more, causing it to run underground quickly. Spencer gave a fast thumbs up to Neo, showing her that he thinks she is doing a good job. Spencer then tried to follow the sand, but another cave in of the sand happened. Spencer slid down fast and the sand behind him erupted with the shark behind it, colliding with Spencer. Spencer gasped loudly and flew into another dune, but luckily his thorns worked on the shark. It slithered away with even more HP gone, it was starting to seem a bit more frantic, like it was getting closer and close to dying, which is what Spencer was liking to see. Okay, we kill this thing, the quest is over, then we can be done! Maybe I'll do a bit more on this floor before I leave, maybe take care of another quest, not sure which one though, there are a few I haven't done yet.

After getting done helping Neo with the quest the two of them were doing, Spencer was wondering what he should do next. It seemed as though he was in a social frenzy, doing quests and adventures with other people, and just getting out there a bit more. It was nice knowing that he was able to make some more friends, like Neo, Faye, and get closer to Calypso. However, he was still trying to think about whether or not he should be on the look out for anyone else he could potentially travel and adventure with. Hmm, I've heard there is one more quest on this floor that I could do, but I know that it is a bit more difficult, maybe I can find a good damage dealer to help even the playing field and push the tides. I wonder where I could find someone like that. His thoughts were cut off when he looked around to spot another player, who seemed closer to his level that others. He got a tad bit excited and started to walk forward, hoping that he could get in a good word and maybe make another friend/ questing partner. He stopped short  because he didn't know exactly what to say, so he hoped the super friendly approach would work a bit. "Hey, I'm Spencer. I was wondering if you might want to go questing? I know this is random, you just seem like someone around my level that could be a good ally to have."

Spencer watched as Neo kept her eyes trained on the ground in front of her and around her, checking for the shark. Spencer had his eyes doing mostly the same thing, trying to find the shark. However, it seemed to have gone under ground for the time being and protect itself, probably because it realized that it wasn't hitting them and didn't want to get hurt anymore, the AI probably updating its tactics in order to figure out the best plan of action of fighting the two players. Okay, it is underground for the time being, what to do now. Just protect Neo, Noot, and myself. Make sure that no other payers get harmed during all of this, and just be safe. He sighed a bit at the last statement. The two of them were fighting a shark that can swim through sand at high speeds and evade our attacks. And we have a little pet along with us, it was not going to be that safe. Well safe as I can make it I suppose.
