Violet Smith

Violet entered the shop once again and headed straight towards James' counter. "I got two more for you today, James," she said as she gently laid a set of bright red armor and a handkerchief on his counter. "I'll be back after lunch. Just send me a message once you finish the job." She filled out two forms for the item identifications. Then she quickly turned and left, heading straight towards the sandwich shop across the street. 

As soon as she stepped outside, her loyal companion, Dahlia the midnight black leopard, joined her in her trip to the sandwich shop.

As Violet buried her face in the midnight black fur of the, she heard a blip alert sound. She raised her eyes and looked up at her display. A new achievement popped up in front of her. "Congratulations! Training Your Friend quest has been completed. Dahlia the leopard has now learned the Familiar Mastery: Accuracy skill. You shall now gain +1 ACC when fighting with your companion." 

Violet jumped up, her body fully healed, and exclaimed with excitement, "We did it Dahlia! Yes!" Dahlia roared happily and nuzzled Violet's leg happily. Violet laughed and pet her black cat companion. Then she heard the cat's stomach rumble. "Haha, let's head back to town. I'll buy us both nice juicy steaks to celebrate today." Dahlia purred excitedly and followed after the young woman as they both trekked through the jungle, heading back towards the main town on the third floor. 

Today had been a good day for the pair.

3/3 Successful trainings!

"You're in my territory now, boy," the mysterious man said, pressing the muzzle of his gun against the temple of young Violet. 

"Watch out!" she heard young Violet yell as the sound of a gunshot echoed in her head. Before she could see the bloody scene that happened next, she woke up in a cold sweat with Dahlia licking the tears from her cheeks. Her black leopard companion must have sensed that something was wrong and woken her up. Violet took a few moments to calm down, slowing her breathing and trying to clear her mind. "It's going to be okay, it's going to be okay..." she mumbled to herself until her heart rate had settled back to a normal rate. 

Once she had recovered, she looked over and smiled at Dahlia, "Thank you, girl. Seems we're growing that close already." She wrapped her arms around the leopard and buried her face in the thick black coat of her companion.  

All the while, their boss -- the mysterious man -- laughed and smiled, seemingly pleased at the spectacle. Once Michael had finished with the thugs, he turned his attention back to the man and his captive. The woman managed to cry out, "Run! Please run!" before the man slapped his hand across her mouth and beat her aside the head once more. She didn't make a sound as she faced the abuse. 

While the mysterious man had his attention faced towards the girl, Michael drew out his own gun from a trench coat pocket. "Let her go," he said coldly as he aimed the weapon at the man. The mysterious man only laughed as the young Violet began to squirm, her eyes growing wide as she stared behind Michael, the man she loved. Dream Violet turned to where her younger counterpart was looking, and she froze in fear as she saw a masked man with a gun pointed towards the back of Michael's head. 

Michael drew in a breath as the man hit the woman. "Please, stop. Take me. Not her," he began to plead. His voice was strong, but Violet could hear the faint quivers of fear. 

The mysterious man laughed again as his two thugs stepped forward in sync. "Ah, Michael. You were always a hard one to catch, but now I finally have you caught. You see, this little cat right here just couldn't resist the chase of one of my little mice." He laughed deeply, creepily. The "little cat" he was referring to was the woman her was holding. A younger Violet. 

Violet felt tears roll down her cheeks as she saw the thugs attach the white-haired man. They came at him with crowbars, but he managed to dodge their attacks and fight back. After a few minutes of struggling, he had beaten them down so that they could not fight nor even pick themselves up. 

In front of her stood the man, his back still facing her. But in front of the man stood two thugs from a rival gang. They were standing in front another man that held a gun to a woman's head. The woman was struggling and cursing, but there was nothing she could do to get out of the man's hold. Without even seeing her face, Violet knew right away who the woman was. It was her. Her eyes grew wide, and she couldn't move. All she could do was watch. 

The man's voice reached her ears in an echoed and distorted way. "Let her go!" he yelled, his voice and body language tense. "You want me. Not her." 

An echoing, harsh laugh echoed in the alley. It came from the man with the gun who was holding the struggling woman. "Oh, Michael. Glad of you to come see us. We were waiting with you." He paused his speech as the woman's struggling grew stronger. "Stop it, you little ****," he said to her as struck her across the side of the face with his gun. 

Violet's chest slowly rose and fell as her breathing slowed, her mind clearing as she fell slowly into the land of dreams. 

In front of her stood a man with short white hair. His back was facing towards her, and he was wearing a black trench coat, black pants, and black sneakers. Violet squinted her eyes, trying to get a better look at the man, but the dream made her vision blurry around the edges. She tried to call out to the man, but her vocal chords didn't work. The man began to move forward, so she quickly followed after, keeping a safe distance. 

As the man turned a corner into an alleyway, she heard screaming. It was her screaming. Her eyes grew wide as she remembered what was about to happen. Her heart raced as she rounded the corner after the man, but it skipped a beat as she saw the scene play out in front of her. 

While laying there with the leopard's head resting on her chest, Violet decided to check the quest progress and stats of her familiar. She brought up the quest window on her display. Hm, still at only 2 out of 3 trainings completed successfully, she thought to herself, frowning. It seemed that the last fight hadn't helped her companion's skills increase at all either. She sighed and laid her head back on her folded right arm after she closed all the extra display windows. 

As she lay there, she closed her eyes and tried to move the muscles in her left arm. She was able to move a few digits, but that was about all the range of motion she had with the appendage. It seemed she would need to rest a bit longer for her arm to heal fully. This was fine with her as it gave her time to refresh her energy and rest her mind.

With one last flick of her wrist, Violet threw her blade at the forehead of the snake. It struck right in the middle, the enemy bursting into pixels and her dagger dropping to the floor along with the loot dropped by the beast. The battle finished and her adrenaline dying down, Violet collapsed to the floor, breathing heavily. Dahlia rushed over, licking the woman's wounds and mewling softly. Violet rested on the ground for a few moments, letting her wounds heal. The pain in her left arm still persisted as she lay there while the pain in her leg became a lesser burden. Dahlia lay down next to her partner, her head resting on the young woman's chest. Violet managed a pained smile as she felt the heavy head of her companion on top of her. She moved her right hand and began to pet the black leopard, and Dahlia began to purr.

Breathing in deeply and trying to calm herself, Violet noticed the snake begin to ready itself for another attack. It appeared to have finally recovered from the shock of the previous attacks it had sustained. It's tongue flicking out from between its exposed fangs, the large beast began to circle around the woman, enclosing her between its body and beginning to close in. As its coils tightened, Violet gathered her strength and waited for the right moment. Right as the coils were about to touch her skin, she leaped into the air and out of the anaconda's grasp. Once she hit the ground, she was already mentally prepared for the pain. It only made her pause for a millisecond before she activated another sword art and dashed quickly around the beast's coils, stabbing into them repeatedly. The giant anaconda lashed out its tail, trying to strike the offending party, but Violet easily jumped over its tail as the beast's movements began to slow. This was due to the injuries the enemy had sustained. It's HP rested at a mere 2 points out of a total 100.

Giant Anaconda: 8 - (3 * 2) = 2/100 HP | 30 DMG

Violet had a twisted grin on her face. Twisted due to the dull ache she felt throughout the left side of her body. The attack on her left leg hadn't broken the bone, so she could still move without too much difficulty as long as she blocked out the pain. While the snake tossed its head, distracted by the piercing pain in its left eye, Violet dodged forward, running along the length of the beast's 10 foot body. She stabbed deeply into the sides of the beast, causing it to convulse and hiss out in pain. As Violet lept away from the thrashing of the angry snake, she barely managed to avoid getting slapped by its muscular tail. As she landed from her backwards jump, Violet cried out. She had landed on the injured leg, further worsening the wound by just a little bit. But the pain was still there, and she could no longer keep her mind off of the horrible sensation.

Even with one arm limp and unable to move, Violet was still a force to be reckoned with. Even while at a disadvantage, she was not to be taken lightly. In her real life, she had been in similar and worse situations to this and had still managed to escape -- even if some of those get-aways were by a narrow margin. Gritting her teeth, she ignored the pain as she focused on the target in front of her. The snake's slitted green eyes met her own, holding pure anger and animosity in their depths. 

Once again, the snake jolted forward, aiming for the woman's head. However, at the last second, the snake dodged to the left and grabbed hold of Violet's left leg, trying to throw her off balance and slow her down. Violet didn't cry out this time as she slammed her blade into snake's left eye once more. This barrage of attacks seemed to be even more painful as the snake let the woman go quickly and backed away. 

Violet: 119 - (30 - 14) = 103/180 HP | 12 - 4 + 2 = 10/18 EN | 3 DMG | 14 MIT | BLEED | 1 EVA | 1 RECOVERY | KEEN (actived) | LIGHT MOMENTUM (deactivated)

Giant Anaconda: 32 - (3 * 4) = 20/100 HP | 30 DMG

The anger and frustration of the snake only quickened its movements -- making it nearly as fast (if not faster) than Violet. With lightening speed, the giant snake grabbed hold of Violet around her already injured arm and threw her into a the broad trunk of a tree a few feet away. With a loud thud, Violet's back hit the trunk, and she fell to the ground. At the last second, she managed to land and roll, mitigating the damage from the fall as well as allowing her to dodge another attempt at an attack by the large beast. 

Rolling to her feet, Violet backed away slowly from the giant snake. Her left arm hang uselessly at her side, damaged from the two attacks. She grimaced as she felt pain shoot up the appendage. The game may have blocked most of the nerves, but some pain could still be felt. 

With the state of her left arm being as it was, she took up a defensive position once more and waited for the beast to attack.

Now, Violet had seen some things in her day. But somehow, the image of the snake throwing back up its partially digested meal was enough to make her gag and look away. Her reaction allowed the snake an ample opening to come down and bite down on her left arm as the woman had turned away to hold her mouth and try not to look at the disgusting display in front of her. 

As the snake's fangs entered and pierced through her left arm, Violet let out a scream of surprise and brought her right hand holding her dagger down onto the snake, stabbing it in the left eye and into its skull four more times. Luckily for the snake, its skull was too thick for the blade to pierce through. However, its eye was another matter. 

The snake drew back its head and twisted around in confusion and agony as it felt the blood pour from its eye and still-open wounds. After a few moments, it realized that its left eye had been irreparably damaged, and it let a shaking hiss of anger and confusion.

The few bits of sunlight that managed to make its way through the thick canopy of the jungle glistened off the deep green scales of the anaconda. On the underside of its coils, Violet noticed the snack was a lighter green, nearly white color. It would be considered beautiful in a different setting where the snake was smaller, more docile, and where it was not eating an animal whole. Slowly, Violet crept up to the large snack. Once she was roughly 5 feet away, she dashed forward and used her sword art to dash in and thrust four times into the thick scales of the snake. The bleed enchantment on her dagger managed to activate as well, leaving the wounds gaping open as the young woman jumped back and out of the snake's reach. 

Caught off guard with half its meal digested, the giant snake was left with no choice but to disgustingly regurgitate its meal to ready itself for battle. In a matter of seconds, the half digested body of the once whole ram lay to the side of the forest floor.

After about 15 minutes or so of walking, Violet heard a shriek of a dying animal and then heard a large crunch. Dahlia and Violet immediately crouched down, and Violet drew out her dagger, prepared to face an enemy that could jump out from anywhere at any moment. After a few seconds of waiting and listening to the continued crunching of bones, Violet decided that the pair were not in imminent danger and began to creep forward. 

Peeking out from behind a thick grouping of vines and bushes, Violet spotted what appeared to be a large anaconda (similar to the one she faced when on her finding a familiar quest) coiled around what appeared to be the back half of a ram. The crushing sound was caused by the constriction of the anaconda's sides and internal structures as it swallowed the entire thing whole. While eating, the anaconda was known to be quite defenseless in the real world, so Violet decided to take a shot at this monstrosity while it was occupied.

While walking through the thick jungle, Violet decided to look for a treasure chest she'd heard about that was located somewhere on the floor. She knew its general location was in the middle of the giant floor, so she headed North towards the middle of the map. After about an hour of so of walking, she reached an open field patch of dirt in the middle of the jungle where no trees grew. She had heard that this was where the treasure was located. It was rumored that somewhere in this empty patch of land there was buried a cursed chest. This curse prevented anything from growing around where the chest was buried. Of course, Violet had little belief in curses and the like, so she began to set to work immediately. After roughly another hour or so of searching to no avail, Violet finally gave up and settled back in to walking though the jungle, looking for powerful enough enemies to fight.

Vandrin mentioned that he didn't mind making new friends. To this, Violet nodded in agreement. She wasn't too popular on having a lot of friends, but a few close ones were nice at times -- like a nice safety net to fall onto during tough times. Back in the real world, she had had a few safety nets, though in a different way: she was on the run half the time after finished a job, so she always needed somewhere to wait it out a few days or so. That was how she had met Loraine. They had both used the same safe house after separate missions. During their three days of hiding, they grew close and promised to see each other again one day. Violet couldn't help but smile to herself. Turns out they had run into each other again -- and now they were stuck in the same hell hole. Though, she thought to herself as her eyes met Vandrin's and a slight flush came to her cheeks, maybe it's a little less of a hell hole with him around. 

She listened closely as Vandrin spoke about his day. He mentioned trying to find quests that didn't put him in danger, and Violet's eyes automatically went to the player status bar above his head. Level 5. She frowned. Only a few levels below herself, but she knew just a few levels made a great difference between the chances of life and death on a seemingly each beginner's quest. "If you like, I can accompany you on some quests. Then you can meet my new familiar." She smiled and giggled. "She might be a little protective when you first meet her, but don't worry. Her bark is worse than her bite." Then she took a moment to think about her day. "Let's see... Ah, I went out into the snow on floor 3 and had a lovely time hunting in the snow. The eery silence and quiet of that floor is... alluring." She didn't know how to describe it, but it felt like time was stopped when she was busy tracking a boar or deer on that floor. All she could here (if there weren't large monsters nearby) was the wind blowing through the trees. Besides the quiet wind, it was silent, the sound seemingly absorbed by the deep snow. 

"Maybe you should join me for a hunt on floor 3 once you get stronger." A grin came to her lips. "I'm sure we would have plenty of fun together." 

@Vandrin

Violet smiled as Vandrin held the door at for her. What a gentleman, she giggled to herself. Once they had both stepped inside, they sat down, and an NPC waitress approached them. She was a familiar face in this large game world. Violet looked up at her, and a soft smile came to her mouth and eyes (a rare expression for the woman). "Hi, Lola," she addressed the waitress. "I'll have my usual. Steak medium-rare and put some of Loraine's special gravy on the mashed potatoes." The NPC quickly jotted this down on a notepad she held out in front of her pink and white apron. As the waitress turned to take Vandrin's order, Violet quickly said, "Oh, and let Loraine know I'll be here this evening." The NPC smiled and nodded her head. "I will, ma'am." 

Once Vandrin had ordered, Violet explained her connection to the owner of the diner. "Loraine and I go back before the game world. She was an American who I happened to do a few jobs with in the United States. Fun gal. Very neat and thorough." She smiled to herself, looking into the past as she took a sip of her water. "I'm selfishly glad she's stuck here with me. It gives me at least one familiar face." She giggled and blushed, turning her attention back to her date. "Ah, and here I am being selfish again. Talking about myself." She cleared her throat before saying, "How was your day?" Small talk was not her forte, but she was trying her best at it. 

@Vandrin

Violet looked at the clock on her display. 6:50 PM. "Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t..." she muttered to herself as she threw open her menus and started throwing clothes about. She had expected for her hunting session to only take a good part of the early afternoon, but she had become absorbed in the adventure and danger. Before she knew it, the clock was at 6:00 and she had been roughly an hour away from her apartment. She had managed to sprint at full speed and made it to the second story room over a tavern with 10 minutes to spare. Now to throw off her armor and throw on something... at least a little more presentable. As she flipped through the few pieces of clothing she had in game, she finally decided on a shorter navy blue, pleated skirt with a white v-neck shirt and a short navy-blue jacket that fell to just below her midriff. 

The clock now read 6:55. She took a glance in the mirror and smoothed her hair down with her hands. Good enough, she thought to herself as she raced out her door, through the tavern of surprised and bewildered customers, and out onto the main road in the second floor. After a few minutes more of sprinting at full speed, she finally made it to the teleporter. She breathlessly uttered the name of the town on the first floor and was instantly teleported to her destination. As soon as she saw another world materialize in front of her, it was a race to the finish. Right before she rounded the corner that led to the diner, she took only a few seconds to compose herself and try to catch her breath. She smoothed her hair down quickly and walked in a non-hurried pace up to Vandrin, who she was pleased to see had been waiting for her. The clock on her display read 7:00 PM. Right on the dot, she thought to herself, relieved. 

She smiled and casually walked up to the man in front of her. "Glad you could make it," she said, at a loss for words. God, of course he would make it. It was planned prior, she thought to herself. It had been years since she had been on a proper date, and it seemed that words for this situation eluded her. She did her best to keep a casual expression, trying not to display any sign of nervousness. "Would you like to go in?" she gestured towards the door. 

@Vandrin

Suddenly, Violet heard a blip sound and looked at the middle of her display. Above Dahlia's head appeared: "2/3 successful trainings completed to obtain novice level of familiar mastery skill -- accuracy." 

"Huh, would you look at that," Violet muttered, her smile broadening. "Looks like that fight did both of us some good." She glanced down and saw that her leopard companion appeared to be making an attempt at imitating a grin as well -- or however close a leopard can get at achieving such a thing. Violet couldn't help but laugh, amused at the sight and joyful that the pair had nearly fully unlocked the skill of her companion. Violet put a hand under her chin and thought about what to do next. If fighting had worked twice at increasing the training for the familiar mastery, it made sense that the two should find another enemy to fight. 

The small woman decided it was best to head deeper into the forest so that they could find some more enemies to loot and kill. She motioned for Dahlia to follow her as they tread deeper into the thick vines and trees. Hey -- if she was lucky --  maybe Violet could even find some amazing armor.

The bleed effect of her weapon took effect immediately. The giant wasp twitched and cried out in ear-splitting, high-pitching buzzing. Violet winced but did not make the same mistake of bringing her hands up to her ears again. A few seconds of ringing was better than taking the chance of getting taken out by the wasp's final attack. There the two stayed, Violet's hand deep in its stomach, as the wasp's hit points rapidly fell to 0. A final shriek echoed among the branches of the jungle as the wasp's figure burst into pixels and a pile of loot appeared on the ground beneath where it had once been. 

Violet felt herself let out a breath she didn't know she was holding and rest her hands on her hips for a few seconds, refocusing. Dahlia quickly trotted over and rubbed her cheek on the woman's leg. Violet looked down and smiled, reaching down to pet the beast with her left hand as she sheathed her weapon with her right. 

"Alright, now let's get to that loot," Violet said as she picked up some col, materials, and a trinket.

Dahlia took a step toward's Violet, barring her teeth at the giant wasp in front of her. Violet noticed the movement and held her hand out to motion for the large leopard to step any far forward. She gave a lightly-pained smile as she assured her companion that she was alright. "It's alright, girl. I've had worse. Just stay right there so I can end this quickly." Her expression turned to one of pure focus as she switched to a defensive stance. She closely watched the wasp's every move at it buzzed left and right, trying to find an opening of attack. Every time it would try to launch an attack forward, Violet was prepared and merely parried the stinger with her blade. After a few tense minutes, the wasp put too much momentum into one of its deflected attacks and wavered in the air, its balance slightly off. The perfect opportunity for an attack. Violet quickly jumped behind the monster and drove her blade through its abdomen, feeling it penetrate deep into the organs of the beast.
