“There is no need to hide your words from these people!” Anarchy called loudly, making a grand sweeping gesture with his arm, “let your true wishes be known!”
“Anarchy_Lord, I must insist,” Butterfli3 said, his tone starting to show signs of his patience running thin.
Anarchy must had picked up on this because with a huff he pushed through the people towards where Butterfli3 was still perched up on the wagon seat and looked up at him.
“Make it quick,” the fanatical player said sharply, “I have important business to attend to.”
Butterfli3 handed you the reins and jumped down beside Anarchy.
“And I have a duty to stop that important business,” your man said lowly, looking past Anarchy as he spoke, “follow me.”
He headed off down the street on foot with Anarchy following and you turned the wagon and followed the pair a short way behind.
“Anarchy,” Butterfli3 called over his shoulder to the male player, “I know you’ve been releasing monsters on levels they don’t belong on.”
Anarchy let out a low, eerie chuckle as he walked a bit faster and came up beside Butterfli3.
“It is all going to plan, my lord,” he said with a sneer.
Butterfli3 shot his arm out across Anarchy’s chest and spun to face the deluded player.
“Why are you doing this? Why do you talk like I’m a part of it? What is your goal here?” Butterfli3 asked lowly as he stood facing off with the mysterious man.
Anarchy looked confused at Butterfli3’s questions and furrowed his brows.
“I thought this would please you? YOU of all people would understand this the most?” he said with a slightly angry yet perplexed look on his face.
“I do NOT understand this the most!” Butterfli3 replied angrily, “you are disrupting
players games and livelihood’s here. You need to stop this.”
Anarchy froze and his eyes widened. “You’re one of them?” he whispered, “I thought you would be different.”
“You’re going to have to explain yourself,” Butterfli3 replied, “I don’t know where you’re coming from.”
“But you’re one of the few players who actually plays RFO for its intended purpose?” Anarchy shot back, “you’re not angered by those who aren’t taking this game seriously?”
“No?” Butterfli3 replied, “everyone in this game has a right to play the game how they want to play it. Not everyone has to be fighting monsters and leveling up?”
“Yes, they do!” Anarchy suddenly screamed, “how dare they frolic around and waste time!”
“That’s their prerogative!” Butterfli3 shot back, “if they want to spend their time having fun in RFO then they are welcome to, there are no rules about how the game is to be played.”
“That’s why there SHOULD have been rules!” Anarchy snapped, “If I hadn’t been unlawfully dismissed from the programming team this game would have been SO much better!”
“….you were part of the RFO programming team?” Butterfli3 almost stuttered.
“Yes,” Anarchy replied bitterly, “but the rest of the team didn’t agree with my philosophy. They had the same ideals as you- everyone being free to do what they want to do in the game, whereas I wanted to enforce laws! EVERYONE Would have to fight for their lives and strive for greatness!” he said manic excitement, “if they sat idly, a monster would be assigned to them to torment them daily until they leveled up,” he cackled, “but no,”
he continued, his face darkening, “they called me delusional and sick. Then plotted against me and had me dismissed from the team but I won.” His laugh deepened into a crazed guttural sound. “I will make this game how I wanted it and it will be PERFECT!”
Butterfli3 was slightly shocked and stood there gawking at Anarchy before speaking again.
“So you’ve been programming higher level monsters onto the lower levels to wipe out those that aren’t strong enough to fight it?” he asked.
“It’s called ‘survival of the fittest’ and so far, it’s working beautifully,” Anarchy replied lowly with a smirk.
“How are you programming them? They glitch and have strange algoriths. Is that part of your plan too?” Butterfli3 asked, confused.
“I hacked the programming system and inserted my own codes, but unfortunately not everything matches up so that’s why the monsters glitch,” Anarchy sighed, “the system recognizes that something is wrong but can’t quite delete my codes because I have made the monsters as close to Al as possible. They learn as they fight, GLORIOUS isn’t it?” he sneered.
Butterfli3 stepped back with fear. “You’re insane,” he whispered.
“Join me.” Anarchy said with an evil sneer, “you are the number one player, you understand the way of RFO. We could wipe out the entire idle population and start again! Create a race of strong fighters that are ready for battle!”
“I refuse,” Butterfli3 replied sharply, “Infact, I challenge you to a duel. If I win, you cease this nonsense and never mess with the RFO programming again and if you win…I’ll join you in your quest.”
Anarchy roared laughing. “I LIKE YOU!! This is indeed the true mark of a man! I will accept your duel because in need you on my team.”
“Oh, I don’t intend to lose?” Butterfli3 said lowly, “my intention is to stop you.”
“Let’s see you try,” Anarchy said with a smirk, “and since you’re going to be defeated I will let you make the terms and conditions.” He added magnanimously.
“Two days time, level 15, 6pm game time, in the arena,” Butterfli3 replied confidently.
“Done deal,” Anarchy said as he stepped to the side and walked past Butterfli3, “when you’re on the ground, dying, watch me as I take your fox lady and make her my own.”
Butterfli3 gasped silently and spun to say something to Anarchy but he had vanished into thin air.
The minute the creepily player had vanished, you jumped off the wagon and ran over to your man, throwing your arms around him.
“Butterfli3,” you called with fear rising in your voice as he caught you in his embrace. “I…I didn’t hear all of that but I heard him say something about me at the end right before he evaporated. Is he going to do something to me?”
“No, O/N, I will never let him do anything to you, you have my word, as long as I am by your side you will be safe. And trust me when I say that I will be by your side…forever.”
You sighed with relief and he leaned his head down to kiss you, his lips moving confidently this time and you parted your mouth slightly as his warm tongue entered between your lips.
Tilting your heads slightly, you both enjoyed the most passionate kiss you had ever shared.
“I will never let you come to any harm,” Butterfli3 promised again after pulling back from the kiss.
