Poker: "Hey there, Arona!~ (・ω・）ノ"

Arona: "Hi, Poker! （＾∇＾）"

Poker: "Why're you up so late?"

Arona: "Oh, its nothing..."

Arona: "Say, you wouldn't know anything about the Dollars, wouldn't you?"

Poker: " ( ﾟдﾟ) ！？"
Poker: "The Dollars?! You mean that sinister online gang rumored to have over a thousand members?"

Arona: "Yeah, them. You know anything about them?"

Poker: "Nothing more than the fact that no one knows who they are. AND the fact that they don't have a leader.. Who knows? Maybe I'm in the Dollars and I don't know it yet... ( ﾟдﾟ)"

>Arona has disconnected.
>Poker has disconnected.

I closed the chatroom window and spun around in my chair.

"Looks like 'Arona' finally has heard about the Dollars.."

I let out a slight smirk and chuckle. I then roll my chair towards my desk and admire the late-city lights.

It hasn't even been a month yet since he moved into this city and he already knows about the Dollars? Things are moving along quite quickly.

"Why the sudden interest in the Dollars? Maybe he was greeted by the Anonymous Messenger?" I giggle to myself and take out my cellphone. I place my cellphone next to my computer mouse.

I let out a huge sigh.

"If only they knew.."

I spring up out my chair and slam my fists on the hard wooden desk.

"If only they knew that I, Ace Matsumura, am the one that invited them to the Dollars! I am the so called 'Anonymous Messenger'! Fear me, world!"

I reach for my cellphone and go through all my sent text messages.

I jump up and down in excitement.

"I am invincible! I have a whole arsenal of pawns to my own disposal. They will obey me because I am Ace Matsumura. I am GOD!"

I walk up to the roof of my apartment and stand on the useless air vent. I look over New Haven City with a smirk on my face.

I then see a familiar figure wearing a yellow scarf and a white hoodie walking on the sidewalk heading west from where I'm standing at.

"It's no one other than the boss of the Royal Pains! What was your name again? Oh yeah! You're my good ol' buddy Matthew Payne!" I call out to Matt but he doesn't seem to hear me

"Matty! Oh, Matty!"

I still don't get a response from him. He seems troubled or something.

I slowly walk back down into my apartment dorm and laugh uncontrollably.

"Wouldn't it be funny if I cause the Royal Pains and the Dollars to have a gang war?"

I laugh even harder and stretch. I fall back in my chair and my kitty, Lucipurr, jumps on my lap.

"There, there. Don't be scared. I won't hurt you. I love you, Lucipurr."

I slowly pet my cat's dark grey fur until he falls asleep in my lap.

The Sun slowly rises over the horizon. I watch the sunrise with Lucipurr purring soundly on my jeans. 

"Such a golden sunrise. I love it. Just as gold as their soon-to-come reactions once the Dollars make their move."

"It's gonna be a perfect live-action performance. And I have the front row seats."
