Location: Home / / VelvetLies' Short Story
I had to stop for a moment, and wonder if I was on
drugs. As, I paused, I realized that wasn't the case.
Again, a strange message scrolled by on my screen.
How long since the last one? 15 minutes?
Better watch your back! Smarty has just been robbed!
Who was it before? Bremen. Didn't think much of it then.
He's always getting into something. Maybe it was some sort
of weird AQ thing I'd never understand. 20 minutes later,
Another message. Then angry confusion on another channel. The
targets of the message began saying pretty much the same thing-
Wtf is my bank account only a few K?
And then on gossip. Some newb: I just got 260M from the janitor
at the bank!
Within 10 minutes, another player had been robbed. Mild chaos
errupted at the bank, and Freggle was the first to kill the
janitor. This time it was 68M. But why was the janitor robbing
people? Does the money have to be given back? Filt was the first
to figure it out.
The bank accounts were drained as soon as someone completed a GQ.
Then, I started to wonder if Lasher was on drugs. I sat in the bank,
telling myself I wasn't really thinking about trying to steal someones
money, but it was kind of tempting...besides, I was curious to know
why. When the janitor popped, on of the crowd listened to the janitor.
He grumbled a strange message, that the point of a global quest isn't
to reward the best bots. But why does the janitor care? Must be all
the trash he has to pick up. Was he right though? We'll never know,
though, because Filt managed to save the day, restoring sanity again
to Aardwolf.
And then some punk PK'ed me and I didn't care anymore.
