《Virtual Sword God! 》Chapter 78: Missing?
Advertisement
Finally, it was the day of the match between Eton and Montem. Each one of the VSW members had woken up early today. As they all had trouble sleeping and couldn't help but feel nervous. It was an important day for them that would determine whether all the hard work they had put in would pay off.
Today's match would take place at Montem school so the members didn't need to wake up early but they chose to anyway. The match didn't begin until just after lunch at 1:00 Pm but Alex had asked the team to meet at the school at 9:00 AM.
It was important for the team to be prepared as possible. The more time they had to play the scenario in their head, the less nervous each member would feel. Alex knew this and thought it would be better than the members just staying home all day waiting for the match.
As Novis went to leave the house, Bill managed to catch him just at the door.
"Good luck in today's match bro, take them down."
Novis gave a thumbs up and ran off towards school.

As Alex was grabbing a piece of bread from the kitchen for breakfast his Mum had entered the room.
"Don't you think your spending too much time with this game thing."
"Mum, we made a promise as long as my grades are good, you would let me do what I want."
After saying that Alex quickly put the piece of bread in his mouth and left to head to school.

Dan was currently surrounded by a bunch of kids between the ages of 5 and 10 with all sorts of different hair colours. They were tugging on his shirt and hanging on to his legs screaming at him.

"Take us with you big bro."
"Yeah, we want to cheer for you."
"Don't you guys have homework to do or something," Dan said.
Then a beautiful brown-haired women with round glasses game over to take the kids off Dan one by one.
"Now, now everyone, we can watch the game at home. It's important that we don't distract your big brother, isn't that right?"
All the kids then Nodded in response.
"Thanks, Claire," Dan said.
An older kid who was at the back of the room with red spikey hair then said.
"Will be watching Dan, you better beat them for all of us."
Dan nodded then rushed off to head to school.

It was 9:00 o'clock and just as they had planned each of the members had met up at the school gates. Scarlett was the only one who was running a little behind. As they walked through the school each of the team members couldn't believe what they were looking at.
The school was currently filled with students even though it was a weekend, not only that but several people had banners supporting Montem's VSW club.
"This is amazing, are they all here for us!" Novis said.
Alex was then looking carefully at all the words written on the banners.
"Take a look again Novis."
Novis looked at the banners again then suddenly got depressed. He noticed that none of the banners were actually supporting the VSW club as a group. They were all either banners for Ashley using her nickname monster or Dan.
As soon as the students saw the VSW club members they would wish them good luck on the upcoming match.
The time was currently 9:15 and Scarlett was still currently nowhere to be seen.

"Where is she?" Novis asked.
"I don't know but I'm sure I told her the right time, why don't you try calling her?" Alex replied.
Novis then took out his phone and gave Scarlett a ring. The phone went straight to voicemail.
"That's strange, maybe she forgot to charge it."
"Is she usually late?" Dan asked.
"Who Scarlett?" Novis replied. "Almost never, she's the type of person who thinks getting there on time is late. And being there 15 minutes early is the correct time."
"Did something happen to her?" Ashley said now with a concerned look on her face.
"Maybe she just overslept," Novis said. "I know, I'll quickly run back and see if she just slept in. She might have just gotten no sleep yesterday."
Novis then quickly ran out of the school and back to his neighbourhood. Novis and Scarlett didn't live too far from school. A normal walk would take between 15 to 20 minutes so with Novis running he would be able to half that time, if not even more.
After running back, he finally arrived at the outside of Scarlett's house. Novis approached the door and rang the doorbell. After a few minutes, a middle-aged red haired woman answered the door.
"Oh, Novis what are you doing here? don't you have a big game today or something? I'm sure Scarlett told me this morning."
"Yes, Mrs Springett, I was just wondering if Scarlett had left already or if she was still busy sleeping?"
"Scarlett, she left at 8:30 this morning, didn't you see her?"
Novis then laughed nervously.
"I must have just missed her then, sorry to bother you."
Novis didn't want to worry Scarlett's mum over nothing. He wasn't sure yet what had happened to Scarlett and if he made a big deal over it he would feel truly bad. Novis then quickly ran to school hoping that Scarlett had arrived by now.
Novis then came rushing into the VSW club room. Novis looked around to see if Scarlett was there, but everyone but Scarlett could be seen.
"So, did you find her?" Alex asked.
"No, her mum said Scarlett left at 8:30 this morning."
Everyone then suddenly had a sick feeling in their stomach. Scarlett wasn't the type to back out or run away. She often encouraged others. If Scarlett had already left then something must have happened to her.
"We still have time," Dan said. "Why don't we split up and see if anyone saw her this morning."
Each of the team members then split up to look for their missing team member hoping nothing bad had happened.
