Sasha trembled, realizing that if anyone found out who it was that got the key, she and her friends would be killed.
Lizzy: "Just hurry up, okay."
Sasha: "Okay, I got it."
Sasha runs back toward her apartment, realizing she has to tell Chase to get out so she can log off.
The Leak
Unknown User 5: "Give us something, some type of information about the player!"
Dev: "Fine. You guys want something? Here."
The Dev links the location of Sasha's apartment but does not expose Sasha's or her friends' usernames.
(In MMO, people cannot break into apartments unless they have a rare spell called the Pick Lock Spell.)
The Mob
Sasha runs back to her apartment and sees a crowd of people, instantly realizing someone found out about the apartment location. In that moment, she thinks she's been caught—that people know her username—but they don't.
Sasha: "I can't be here. If they know my apartment, they have to know my username, I think."
So Sasha runs away, feeling sorry for the new player she left behind to suffer.
People pull Chase out of the apartment.
Unknown User 3: "Give it to me."
Chase: "Give what to you?"
As Chase just woke up from his nap—since the system gave him a notification—he doesn't know what's going on.
Chase: "What's going on? Where's Sasha?"
Matt: "Wait a minute... Sasha?"
Unknown User 4: "You know who he's talking about?"
Matt: "Yes, she comes to my shop often."
Unknown User 1: "This player does not have the item. He's just a beginner, a traveler. I'm guessing that Sasha let him stay here. But that means..."
Matt: "Sasha has the key?!"
Unknown User 1: "Yep."
People grab Chase and bring him outside the apartments, asking him to tell them where Sasha is. Chase screams, saying he doesn't know where Sasha is, when all of a sudden a smoke spell activates, engulfing everything.
Unknown User 2: "What's going on?"
All of a sudden, someone grabs Chase and starts running away.
Riri: "Hi."
Chase: "What's going on?"
Riri: "Just come on! I'm helping you, okay? I'm also a friend of Sasha's."
Chase follows Riri out of town. Thinking they are safe, Riri says, "You're safe now. No one usually comes to this part of town. Are you good?"
Chase: "Yeah, I'm fine, just a little out of breath."
Riri: "Yeah, that happens. But you'll get used to it, noobie."
Chase: "Yeah, ye..."
As Chase is talking, a giant boom happens, with a giant vine coming out of the ground and slamming Riri into the ground.
Chase: "What the hell!"
Chase thinks that he just got Riri killed. Knowing that when a player dies, their account gets deleted, he feels bad, so he runs away, thinking that maybe this game wasn't the best idea.
