Take Down Chapter 32: Achieved

You knew exactly which class you wanted to be and immediately clicked on the class listings that popped up in your menu.

Eyes wide with anticipation, you scrolled down till you got to ‘dancer’ and clicked on it.

“This is freedom. This is choosing my own destiny,” you thought as you clicked it and smiled up at Migata through the holographic screen.

Suddenly a whirlwind of colour surrounded you and Migata was blocked from view.

[CLASS CHANGE, STANDBY]

Flashed up in your vision and the sudden confusion that was rising inside you subsided.

“Ok, this is normal then,” you thought as you looked around.

Slowly you were lifted off the ground and you could feel clothes being placed on you, touching you on different parts of your body as the outfit was pieced together.

As the process came to a close you were placed back down again and a:

[CLASS CHANGE SUCCESSFUL]

Sign, popped up to let you know everything had gone according to plan.

You stood there, waiting for the rainbow whirlwind to lift so that you could see Migata again and slowly he came back into view as the multi-coloured mist lifted and evaporated away.

The smile that Migata had on his face changed to more of a jaw-dropped look and his eyes widened significantly as he looked you up and down in your new outfit.

******

A/N: I am leaving the description (colour, style, accessories , etc…) intentionally blank so that you can design your own outfit. Do bear in mind that typical dancer class outfits are often quite revealing and thus the design I will use for descriptive purposes will have a slit up the side of the skirt to reveal a good portion of your thigh 😉

*******

“I’m a dancer now,” you said excitedly, a wide smile on your face.

“Yeah,” he whispered with a blush as his eyes were drawn to your thigh peeking out from the slit in the skirt.

You looked down and held your arms out to check everything and that’s when you suddenly realized that the cloak of invisibility that Migata had put on you had been removed and everyone could see you.

Suddenly feeling very self-conscious, you froze and looked down at the group below, noting the awestruck look on each of their faces.

“Wow,” one guy whispered, “no wonder Migata kept her hidden, she’s gorgeous.”

“Trust you to say that, you’re a guy,” a female character beside him commented.

“Bruh, I’m playing as a male character but in real life, I’m a chick- so step off, I can think another chick is sexy, ok?”

“Oop. My bad. I’m actually a dude in real life so….” the female character replied, the pair bursting into laughter and high-fiving as others ignored them and continued to ogle you.

“You look amazing,” Migata whispered, clearing his throat a little as his voice threatened to break.

“Thanks,” you replied with a small curtesy, “I don’t even know if I’m supposed to do that,” you added with a sheepish chuckle.

“Looked good to me,” Migata said brightly with a smile and a thumbs up, “you ready to regroup?”

You nodded and smiled at him, taking his outstretched hand and walking with him back down to the group.

“So your name is U/N?” one player asked as you approached the group that had been in hiding during the fight.

“Yep,” you replied with a smile.

“So, are you a secret top level player or something? How come we haven’t seen you before?” another asked.

“I swear I saw you deal the last blow.”

“What level are you?”

“Do you stay hidden because you’re too powerful?”

“Have you entered a slave contract with Migata?”

“Are you and Migata together?”

Question after question was thrown at you like rapid fire and it reminded you a little of what it was like back in real life when the scientists would bombard you with questions after an experiment.

“Oooh-Kay,” Migata said with a chuckle as he stepped in front of you and held his hands out, “that’s enough questions for now. U/N, is a new member of our team but that’s all you need to know,” he said with a smile.

“Wow?!” O/N gasped as her and Butterfli3 arrived back on scene, “look at you! It’s like the whole butterfly and cocoon thing!”

You gave her a cheeky smile and twirled around, your outfit flailing slightly as you moved.

“You bet,” you said, holding out the peace sign to her. “I feel so much more nimble on my feet, my movements are fluid. Is this part of being a dancer class?” You thought.

“We should head back to the house,” Butterfli3 interjected, “it’s starting to get late in real time so we need to move quick.”

“Will you guys be ok to find your way back out of here?” O/N asked the remaining players as they still stared at you in wonder.

“Yeah. We’ll be fine,” one of the players said dismissively, “I’ll just use my teleport cube.”

“Ok, cool,” O/N replied, then she turned to Migata who was staring at you, “hey, Mage-man, think you could spell us up and fly us back to the house?”

“Hmm?” he hummed in question, hearing her but not concentrating enough to actually reply properly, “oh, sorry, yes, yes, I can do that.”

“Awesome,” O/N replied with a smirk.

Last farewells were said to the remaining group of players then Migata cast a flying spell on all of you and you lifted off the ground and up into the sky.

“Which way for home?” O/N called over her shoulder to Butterfli3 who was right behind her.

“10 0’clock,” he called, pointing in that direction.

“Gotcha,” she called back, rotating her body in the direction of home as the flying spell picked up speed.

The view was amazing as you all zoomed along and you were so engrossed in watching all the floating islands and various creatures that inhabited each, that you didn’t see Migata gazing at you fondly the whole time. It was only towards the end that he flew closer to your side and reached for your hand, that you became aware of his presence beside you.

You looked over and smiled at him once he had taken your hand in his and gave it a small squeeze of recognition.

Flying didn’t take long and as you alighted on the front doorstep of O/N and Butterfli3’s house you suddenly felt very tired.

“What time is it in the real world?” you asked with a yawn as you followed O/N and Butterfli3 inside with Migata following behind you.

“It’s about 1am,” Butterfli3 replied as he stretched and stifled a yawn, “I have school tomorrow.”

“So do I,” O/N added with a wide yawn

“Put me as 3,” Migata added as well, seeming far more interested in something else to yawn as he walked in behind you.
