Mini's PoV

I let out a drunken giggle while some of the guys have a drinking contest. The contestants are Nogla, Terrorizer, Delirious, Wildcat, and Marcel. "I'm betting on Nogla!" Lui exclaims with the voice of a small child. "I-I-I've got money o-on Basically!" Droidd stutters in a goofy Mexican accent. "You've got this, Delirious!" Vanoss cheers. "C'mon Terrorizer!" Moo routes. Who should I route for? Well, there's only one person left to route for... "You can do it, Wildcat! I believe in you!" I shout, fist pumping the air.
       They're all going pretty strong, but Delirious begins to slow down his chugging. He stops and sways in his seat. "Delirious is out!" Moo announces. A few more drinks in and Marcel and Wildcat both slow down. "Uh oh! Who's going to get out next?! Basically or Wildcat?!" Lui asks no one in particular. Answering his question, Marcel stops drinking a few minutes before Wildcat. "Alright! It's down to the two Irishmen!" Vanoss exclaims, staring at the showdown. The two battle for a few minutes until Nogla stops. Terrorizer jumps out of his seat with a victorious smile plastered on his face. "And the winner is... Terrorizer!!!" Moo shouts with glee, grabbing Terrorizer's hand and holding it up in the air.
       Lui yawns and stretches his arms. "I'm tired. I think I'm going to log off. Let's give each other our numbers so we can keep in touch with each other outside of the game and figure out who's getting on when." Lui states, typing his cell phone number in the guild chat. We all do the same and screen shot the numbers before people begin to log off, their bodies turning into pixels and disappearing into thin air.
       Everyone logs out but me and Tyler. We look at each other and smile. "Welcome to the family, Mini." He slurs. "Thank you." I hiccup with a giggle. "I'll see you tomorrow." Wildcat states as his body slowly turns into pixels. "Yeah, see you tomorrow." I say, logging off. As both of our bodies turn into pixels, we never break eye contact with each other. I sit up in my bed and take the console off, examining the screen shot of everyone's numbers. I grab my phone and insert all of the numbers in my contacts before laying down and falling asleep, not caring to put my pajamas on.

*Timeskip to the end of Mini's school day*

       I stare out of the window, ignoring the lesson Mr.Wrecker is giving us like I always do. I smile when the bell rings, signifying the end of the school day and the beginning of my day in Evolution. Well, time to go get beaten up by Tyler and then act like absolutely nothing happened when I log on in the game. Yay... I grab my things and walk out of the classroom. I walk to my locker and put everything up, grabbing my book bag and preparing for the worst.
       "Tyler! What the fuck are you doing?!" The voice of one of Tyler's friends boom. I turn in the direction of the conversation to see Tyler rushing to leave. He tries to run away, but one of his friends grabs the back of his shirt. "C'mon guys! Let me go! I'm busy today!" He growls as he struggles to get away. "That's never stopped you from roughing up Craig! Aren't you going to fuck with him a bit before you go?" One of the bullies ask. "Grr, maybe another day! I want to meet up with my friends!" Tyler answers. "We are your friends!" One of the boys huff. Before they could pester Tyler any longer, he escapes their grasp and takes off. His friends... He's talking about us... He's talking about me... I shake my head from my thoughts and quickly leave the campus.

*Timeskip to whenever Mini logs on*

       I stretch my limbs with a yawn, feeling hunger bubble up in my stomach. I roll out of bed and make sure my hood is covering my face before I quietly make my way to the kitchen. How come I feel like I just woke up and crave breakfast even though I've been awake all day? This game is too fucking realistic! Jeez! I fix two plates of bacon, eggs, and pancakes, placing both of them at the kitchen table before fixing us both a glass of milk. I sit in the chair, waiting on Wildcat to log on and get down here before I eat.
       I hear a loud groan followed by a thump coming from Wildcat's room. They have hangovers in this game too?! The fuck?! Wildcat's heavy footsteps echo throughout the house. I look in the direction of the noise to see a grumpy Wildcat approaching the table. He looks at the food I fixed us and his mood turns from grumpy to excited. "Fuck yes! Thanks, Mini!" He smiles, taking a seat in front of me and digging in. I return his smile and eat, sneaking a few glances at Wildcat every once in a while. Once we finish, Wildcat pulls up the guild chat, so I do the same.

H2ODelirious: No! Fuck you guys!

Vanoss: C'mon! Please, Delirious! I want to know!

LuiCalibre: Yeah! You know you want to!

Wildcat: The fuck is goin' on here?!

Terrorizer: Oh nothing, Delirious is just being a little bitch

H2ODelirious: Fuck you! You're the bitch!

MiniLadd: ????

SilentDroidd: They're trying to get Delirious to take off his mask and tell us his name

Moo Snuckle: Yeah, but he doesn't want to and the guys are pestering him about it

Vanoss: We're not pestering him! We're just repeatedly trying to convince him to show us who he is...

H2ODelirious: SAME DIFFERENCE!!!

Wildcat: Alright, alright! Calm down. What are we planning on doing today?

BasicallyIDoWRK: Well, before this shit started we were talking about visiting the quest board and fighting a boss.

DaithiDeNogla: Yeah, we better hurry up and go before all of the quests are gone.

Vanoss: Fine...

H2ODelirious: Yes! Finally!

Vanoss: This isn't over, Delirious ;*

H2ODelirious: ;~;

       Wildcat and I both log off of the guild chat and give each other a goofy smile. "You ready for your first boss battle?" Wildcat asks me with a cocky, over-confident grin. "Fuck yeah I am!" I exclaim, returning his cocky expression. With that, the two of us race out the door towards the quest board.

(I know this chapter wasn't that interesting, but it'll get more exciting. I've got a lot planned for this book and I can only hope that you guys are as excited as I am to see how this story turns out! Thank you so much for reading and possibly enjoying my shitty book!)
