Lucas closes the e-mail and returns to the game window.
The game freezes and a message prompts.
*Dear Player, you ran out of load. Please top up to continue with your game quests. ROK on!*
"Oh Crap No! I'm nearing level 56!"
Pulling up his hair and scratching his head out of frustration.
He grabs his N7610 Keypad Phone, and texts his best friend, Rick.
*tap tap tap* Typing...
~Hey Man! Cud u pls lend me sum of ur ROK pins. I just ran out of play tym. I'll be lvling up in 5 mins. I'll pay u back, Monday.~
*Sent*
*beep* (SMS tone) Rick replies...
~What a bummer. I just used my last one.~
"Great." Lucas ironically says. He removed his glasses, shuts down his PC, and went to bed.
Weekend passes by and weekday classes resumes. Lucas is a highschool sophomore, he's an average student and a happy go lucky guy.
Mom: Hey sweetie! Hurry up, I hear *Mang Lester's Tricycle coming! Your packed lunch and snacks are already inside your bag.
*Filipino word for the elderly, a.k.a as Manong or Kuya
Lucas: Yes, Mom. Coming.
Mom: By the way, I'm gonna use the Computer later. Your dad will be on the internet. Be home early so you can see him.
Lucas: I'll try, Mom!
*honk honk* Sound of Tricycle horn...
Lucas rushing to get out, grabs his bag and went outside the gate of their house.
He seems to forget something and ran back inside the house.
Lucas: Bye, Mom! I love you.
And went straight back to the three-wheeled vehicle waiting outside.
Mom: Bye, sweetie! I love you too.
*brooooooooooommm!* Engine revs up and went away.
*RINGGGGG!* School bell rings...
Students are going out of their rooms, Most are heading to the cafeteria for lunch.
"Hey Luke! Let's go to the internet cafe I'll trade you in some ROK items." Rick shouts from the corridor.
"Yeah. Alright. Be sure that it's worth it." Lucas answered.
At the Internet Cafe...
Lucas wearing a pair of headphones while playing.
"Oh yeaahh! Reached Level 56!" He excitedly announced inside the enclosed space.
"Ssssshhhhhhhhhhh" the other users in the internet cafe react opposingly to his loud voice.
Lucas looked around apologetic.
"Well done kid..." A mysterious looking man who sat right beside him whispered with a smirk.
The man has a pony tailed hair, well groomed mustache and beard, wears dark glasses, white shirt, and seemed to be of European descent.
*RINGGGG!* school bell rings. End of classes.
Lucas arrives home, he steps inside his bedroom and finds his mom busy, talking to his dad via live chat and overhears the conversation...
"...meaning we can move their early nex year?" His Mom says while talking to the monitor. She did not noticed her son enter the room.
"Yes, all papers are now approved. Get your passports ready." His Dad replied with a glad tone.
"Okay, honey. Excited to see you! I'll tell Luke (Lucas) about it. I'd better get him prepared, he needs time to adjust. I love you! Bye Bye." Kissed her hand and touched the computer screen.

The screen prompted...

Clicks "Yes" button and signs out.
"Oh sweetie, you're here! You weren't able to talk to your Dad." Finally noticing her son.
"It's okay mom. I guess we are really moving to Britain for good?" *Sighhhh*
"Yes, Lucas. Don't you want to see your Dad? You'll meet lots of friends there."
"I want to see Dad, but..."
His mom hugs him...
"Hush my sweetie. I swear you'll enjoy there. Change your clothes, and l'll prepare our dinner."
"Okay, mom." Lucas says lethargically.
That night...
