[SP-F6] Lightning Strikes Twice

[Saix 0]

Well, Amazon was certainly more boring than the name might have suggested. Where were the powerful warrior women? So far, Floor 6 was looking pretty boring. But then again, so had Floor 5, and even if there were no powerful warrior women in this horribly misnamed village; it was still better than hot sun, swirling sand, and oh yeah lot's of sand. Dressed in his layered red coat with his polished rapier on his hip, Saix took a moment to settle down on the outskirts of the ruins that made up the village, seating himself on a fallen tree and listening to the sounds of the rain forest as he sipped absentmindedly from his water skin.

This must be what it was like way back in the day, when people were still exploring new places, encountering native life, and killing it for loot... Yeah, now that he thought about it, all this MMO stuff really seemed to explain how history really worked. Of course, teachers probably wouldn't be thrilled to realize that if they really wanted the little bastards to pay attention in class all they needed to do was switch up the lingo, maybe drop a game reference every now and again. Oh well, the continuing decline of the education system wasn't really all that important in this world.

A rustling nearby caught his attention, and he peered speculatively into the heavy vegetation. He was on the very outskirts of the village, so local wildlife, aka monsters, shouldn't be an issue. That likely meant another player was nosing about. That shouldn't really be a cause for concern, but things in SAO hadn't gone down quite the way Kayaba Akahiko had planned. Saix supposed that showed how 'smart' the supposed genius really was. Kayaba had not taken into account the average hormone driven MMO player's need for PVP, and shortly after being trapped in this digital prison the player killing had begun. Now the so called 'red' players were a constant threat. Ensuring his sword was ready to be drawn, Saix waited for the approaching disturbance to come into view.
