Chapter 2

Camron finished earlier then his dad due to him having to close down the shop and clean up, walking out the shop holding the gaming gear Camron ran home as fast as he could.

"Im going to my room, please get me for dinner"

"Okay, should be in an hour"

Once he heard his mothers timings Camron went to his bed and put the gear back on login in and arriving back in the training area. Looking round and seeing only one person standing net to a bucket of wooden weapons Camron made his way there.

"What weapon would you like" The man called out. Camron inspected to buckets of wooden weapons and noticed it was a variety of swords and a few bows and arrows. "You are here to learn the feeling and movements of the system. After going through the basic you will be shown a list of starting villages to go to"

Camron went through the swords picking the larges and longest one and treated it like a staff, performing his stances and attacking the dummy in front. Slowly the movements where getting smoother and smoother until it was close to how Camron would perform in the real world.

"Good, seem you have the basics down" The man said walking to Camron "There are 4 villages you can go to, 2 of them are solely humans and the other 2 are a mixture of the races. Where would you like to go"

A screen appeared in front of Camron with 4 different options, he didn't care about the options or the names and picked the first one that appeared.

"You have chosen "Greys Village" this is a mixed race one so has a variety of different tasks to be completed, up until level 5 you can pick and change your job but when you reach that level the only way to change is to get a Job Class change. Good luck and have fun"

A bolt of lighting flew down and struck Camron, when the light disappeared he was standing in the middle of a town square. In front of Camron there was a large fountain and behind it stores and markets. There where other users walking round interacting with each other and NPC's as well, looking round Camron saw a group of people on ragged brown clothes heading to an open area. Looking at his own clothes and seeing that they where the same he followed at a distance and saw it lead to an open training ground like the one he just left. Unlike the prior training area there where different types of weapons for Camron to pick from, looking at them there was nothing similar to a staff.

"Is there a problem, lad" an old gentle man with a small walking stick came and asked Camron.

"Im looking for a staff, do you have any Mr...."

"Mr Reeds and we dont. You are able to make your own if you want" Mr Reed said holding 2 long swords and putting them near each other.

"Thank you, are these the only material"

"In the shed theres a lot of broken or worn down ones you can have" Mr Reed used his stick to point to a small shed.

"Thank you again"

Camron made his way there opening the door and saw a lot of broken swords, bows and items he couldn't recognise due to how broken they where. Emptying them all out onto the floor Camron started organising them into sizes and then looked at the stronger material. Once their was a large amount strong Camron started seeing which would fit better and not break apart.

"This reminds me of making my Bo Staff at home"

The first one failed as the binding on the wood weren't strong enough causing it to fall apart after Camron's 2 strike, the second one had stronger binding but the materials selected had a creak down the middle causing it to shatter after hitting the dummy.

"Even though ive failed both times this is fun" Camron though putting away the rest of the wood and logging out for dinner.

"Hows the game Cam"

"It feels like real life" He said walking in

"Make sure you still study"

"I will"

"Also your Dad has something to say when hes done washing"

As Camron helped set the table his dad came walking in, all of them sat down and enjoyed the rarity of having some meat for dinner.

"I was taking to your Mum, and we think it would be best to allow you take some time of helping in the store"

"Why, im fine working there and doing school work"

"We know, but dont you think you should be doing something for yourself like playing the game console"

Camron instantly know his parents wouldnt take no for an answer.

"Ill work the weekend, and thats the only way ill give up the week days"

"I thought you would say that, thats fine you can work in the morning"

They finished dinner and Camron made his way back to his room and put the gear back on, this time he didnt fly through the environment but saw the same hut he was in when he logged out. Signing back in Camron spent some time finishing his staff before looking round at all the left over wood and opting to play around with them, making daggers improving swords and other odd bits.

Camron was enjoying building weapons so much that he didnt realise how much time had mast until the sky started turning dark, putting everything back into the hut and taking the best pole Camron started exploring the area.

Looking around the lights where slowly starting to turn on revealing a different environment to the busy streets from earlier, before he could start anything he hear the cries of a kid.

"Can someone help...Ive broken my dads watch..." a small kid was calling by the side a light, several users where walking past muttering about how it was an impossible talk. Ignoring that Camron walked up.

"I can help, if you show me the watch"

"Really.... Here"

[Crying Child task started.

Repair the watch of the crying child

Reward: Depends on the repair]

Holding out his hands the boy handed Camron a bundle of springs and gears from a broken pocket watch. Lying it flat on the ground Camron started to slowly inspect each part and slowly cleaned all the lint from it. Holding up the actual watch to the light he started to fit each bit together like he had done before for Miss Sin.

"Do you have any other bits, theres a few cogs missing"

The boy looked around before running to the curb and grabbing some cogs and running back to Camron.

"These, that should be all"

After taking it all apart, cleaning the new cogs Camron started again.

[Mission completed

Follow Jonny for the reward]

Jonny the crying boy jumped up and down holding the watch, before stopping and dragging Camron away.

"Come meet my Dad, he'll reward you for this" Jonny said turning round looking at Camron "It was a family hair loam from his great great great....i forgot how many great's"

letting go of his hand Camron followed to get his first reward in the game. Jonny lead him to a house close to the wall leading out side the village.

"Is your Dad someone important"

"Hes the Chief of the guards"

Before Camron could say anything he felt a sense of danger and stopped moving just in time for a large man to appear out of the shadows. The man had light blond hair and a short beard, everything about the man looked like it was the limit of a human body.

"What are you doing with my son"

"Dad, he helped me to fix the watch here see"

Jonny handed his dad the watch and the sense of danger and everything he felt immediately disappeared.

"Whats your name"

"Ca...Grim" he corrected

"Well Grim, Im Kane, come inside and have something to eat. As a thank you please take this"

Kane grabbed something from inside the bag on his shoulder and through it to him.
