Yeah sorry for the delay, you know me, busy busy lazy lazy. You guys know the drill. This chapter is a love-it/hate-it situation, depending on your views of the game Im introducing a crossover for, my other favorite online game… more about that later. So, without any further ado, chapter seven.

Riella wiped at her eyes again, and picked up Blasts wizard wand, that wasnt good, it hadnt made it into the portal with him, and he would no doubt be missing it. His rucksack was there too, could he even survive without any items or magic? Magicians never were the roughin it types. Slipping the wand and her communicator back in a pocket, under plates of armor, Riella bottled up her woes to stand and turn to face the soft footsteps on the plastic behind her, who she saw was far from anybody she wouldve guessed. The bandit stopped walking a good ten paces away from her, to return his dagger to a large sheath at his waist and regard her carefully. She didnt give him any longer than that.
Shard! she roared, rushing in, your guild is responsible for this! she growled, slashing out at him with her Traus. The bandit had his dagger out again in a flash, blocking her blow with the hilt of the blade, and stepping back out of reach.
Hang on, I- he tried to begin, but she lunged at him again.
Youll pay for my friends and your crimes! she raged, slashing and thrusting forward as he dodged back, to the side, again and again, but to no avail, he was too fast.
Can I get a word in here, I just- Riella had jumped back to grab a weapon of greater range, and Shard stepped back as she hefted the Red Sign for a swing.
Hey, hang on! Put me down! it protested, as she swung it off her shoulder with force, the bandit ducking, then jumping, then darksighting to avoid beheadment. Appearing beside her to wrench the unhappy sign from her hands, and slam it down upright beside him, he raised his dagger again to hold her sword back from his face.
