Rio Grande City; Campestre
In the east side of Rio Grande City, there is a private neighborhood that only the Elite of Rio Grande City live in, it’s called Campestre, and located in a giant house, a girl is gently opening her eyes…
“Mmmhhpphh” A girl opens her eyes and sees the ceiling, she stretches her body and slowly stands. The girl walks sleepy towards the bathroom, she takes a bath. Combs her hair, puts on some makeup and her glasses.
She looks at the mirror and with an optimistic attitude says; “Okay Victoria, today is going to be your day…”
Victoria Salazar is a 16 years old beautiful girl. She is a little taller, has a well developed body. She has long red hair with a pony tail hanging on her right shoulder.
Victoria walks down the stairs to the kitchen, where her father drinks coffee and reads the newspaper.
“Good morning Daddy…” Victoria with a smile hugs her father.
“Good morning Victoria, did you sleep well?”
Victoria nods in agreement, her father smiles and says; “That’s good to hear.”
Officer Luis Rodriguez (Age 35) is an officer of the Rio Grande City police force, he is the commander, and he has brown skin with short black hair. He has yellow eyes and a mustache, he is wearing casual clothes.
As they eat, Victoria says something that makes Luis spit his coffee; “What did you say? You have a date?”
Victoria, who is very excited, agrees; “That’s right...a date with the hottest guy at school...Uriel…”
“Uriel? I never heard that name before...who is he?”
“He is a transfer student, he just transferred for like a month or so...but he asked me out, we’re going to Las Misiones…”
“Okay...and when will you meet him, is he going to pick you up?”
“What? No...I told him to meet up there because that’s so old fashion…”
Luis sighs; “Ay mija, call me old fashioned but next time, make him come and pick you up okay…”
“Alright papa…” Victoria finishes eating breakfast and gets ready to leave.
She has a very hyperactive personality despite having lost her parents five years ago. Officer Rodriguez was the one who saved her and decided to adopt her.
“Victoria please be careful okay...and promise me that you stay out too late…”
“You worry too much papa...don’t worry…” Victoria kisses his forehead and heads to the door; “BYE BYE”
“Oh I almost forgot…” Victoria grabs a medallion and shuts the door.
Victoria leaves, Officer Rodriguez finishes his breakfast as he keeps thinking:
“Uriel, Uriel...where have I heard that name before…”
Suddenly, memories of the night that the Chupacabras’ attack fly straight to him. Officer Rodriguez drops the coffee as he trembles; “Uriel...that young man...he…”
He stands up and quickly puts his police uniform on saying; “I must protect my daughter, that young man is dangerous…”

Rio Grande City; Las Misiones
12pm on the same day in Las Misiones (The Missions)...Las Misiones mall is a great establishment like any other, has multiple stores, and restaurants….it had two floors and a movie theatre… Located in the food court, Victoria waits patiently for the arrival of her beloved date…

The students from Sun City don't have class but the ones in Rio Grande City do...that's why the mall is very empty at that hour...
Victoria wears a short white skirt and a red blouse that shows her curvy body. She sends text with her phone and looks at her social media while she waits.
“So let me get this straight...you have been texting Victoria using my name as an alias...you convinced her that I will have a date with her?”
Tiwa apologizes; “That’s right...I’m sorry, but it was the only thing I could do...I figured out that she has my medium and she has a crush on you…”
Uriel sighs and says; “Well I guess it’s fine, I did make you transform as me and you lost your medium because of me…”
“Yeah...so try and be a gentleman, have fun with her...meanwhile, I will camouflage myself and try to take the medium, after I successfully retrieved it, I will give you a signal...got it…”
“You know that nothing always goes as planned, okay…” Uriel says to Tiwa, Tiwa slaps his back saying:
“Don’t worry, everything will be fine…now go on, you casanova…”
Tiwa pushes Uriel, Uriel walks towards Victoria, he takes a deep breath and thinks:
“I guess I have no choice…”
Uriel decides to walk towards Victoria.
"Yes...now that he agreed, I just need to find an opening…" Tiwa takes out a medium, the medium is a green bracelet in the shape of a serpent; " Okay...Jana...camouflage…"
"Right...Mistress Tiwa…" Tiwa slowly turns invisible. Meanwhile, Victoria looks at her cell phone and sighs:
“It's been 10 minutes...I guess he…"
"Sorry for the wait...did you wait long?" Uriel appears behind her and grabs her shoulder, Victoria panics:
"Waahhh...Uriel, I didn't see you coming…"
"Well, you were looking at your cell phone…"
"Own...that's right...silly me…" Victoria laughs nervously.
There was an awkward silence for a moment. Victoria is really nervous as she asks:
" So...uhmm...do you want to walk around?"Uriel asks Victoria, "Sure…" Victoria says with excitement. Tiwa, who is invisible, tries to grab her purse; "Almost there…" But Victoria grabs her purse and stands up:
"Damn it...so close…"
Uriel and Victoria walk around the mall, Victoria looks at Uriel and tries to grab his hand:
"If only...I could...slowly…"
Uriel turns around and sees her; "Is something wrong?"
(GYYYAHHH)
Victoria moves away as she is surprised; "Victoria?"
Victoria quickly comes to her senses; "No...no, everything is alright…"
Uriel and Victoria walked around the mall, looking at stores...pet shops and restaurants until they arrived at the movie theater…
"Oh look...that movie is so romantic…" Victoria says as she looks at the poster fascinated, Uriel stands next to her and asks; "Do you want to watch it?"
"Really?" Victoria asks with excitement, Uriel nods with a little smile. Uriel and Victoria, who is grabbing his arm, head to the movie theater. Tiwa who is following them notices and says; "Excellent...nice thinking Uriel…"
Tiwa follows them to the Theater….
At the cinema...Uriel and Victoria watch a movie together, there aren't a lot of people because it is a romantic movie...meanwhile, Tiwa slowly approaches Victoria…

“This is so romantic, right Uriel?” Victoria says as she looks at the movie, Uriel nods in agreement as he also looks at the movie. He slowly moves his eyes to his left as he knows that Tiwa, who is invisible, is moving behind them.
A small piece of paper slowly drops into Uriel’s hand that says:
DISTRACT HER….I’LL MAKE MY MOVE…
Uriel looks at the invisible Tiwa and shakes his head. In order to distract Victoria, Uriel holds her hand.
“What are you doing?” Victoria asks embarrassedly; “I just thought you were cold that’s all…” Uriel replies, causing Victoria to look at him with heart shaped eyes.
(GGGYYAAHHHH)
Tiwa uses the opportunity to slowly grab her purse and search for her medium as she thinks; “Where is it...it must be here, somewhere…”
“I need to go to the restroom…” Victoria grabs her purse and runs to the restroom. Tiwa is left with her arm stretched; “WAAIITT…”
“Did you get it?” Uriel asks Tiwa, she turns visible and shakes her head. Uriel sighs and says:
“Then go get it in the bathroom now…”
Tiwa turns invisible once more and runs to the bathroom.
At the bathroom, Victoria washes her hands and she looks at the mirror, she notices that she is very red and thinks:
“GGYYYAAHH...I’M SO EMBARRASSED RIGHT NOW...I THINK I CAN END UP KISSING HIM…”
(BBOOOMM)
The door of a toilet opens by itself, Victoria turns around and says; “Who’s there…” Suddenly, her purse fell into the ground causing the things she had inside to come out. Tiwa, who is invisible, searches for the medium, however, she notices it’s not there.
“WHERE IS MY MEDIUM...ZUNI…”
Victoria hears the voice of Tiwa and with a face full of shock, stands up; “WHO IS THERE...THIS ISN’T FUNNY…”
The door of the bathroom opens by itself. Victoria screamed and runs outside. Tiwa turns visible again and sighs; “If it’s not there, then where is it?”
(GGGYYAAHHHH)
Uriel hears Victoria screaming and with great speed runs towards her. He arrives at the women's bathroom where he sees Victoria sitting on the ground scared. Uriel quickly asks:
“What happened?”
“Uriel, there is a ghost in the bathroom” Victoria replies as she hugs Uriel. Uriel notices Tiwa, who has a piece of paper that says:
MEDIUM NOT IN THE PURSE...MEDIUM IN HER PERSON…
Uriel sighs once more and grabs Victoria’s hand; “Let’s go outside…”
***************************************************************************
Uriel took Victoria to the food court where he got her an ice cream cone in order for her to calm herself....
“Are you feeling better?” Uriel asks Victoria who has tears in her eyes and nods in agreement.
“Uriel, do you believe in ghosts?” Victoria asks Uriel. Uriel doesn’t respond, Victoria looks down and says; “You think I’m crazy right?”
“No...I do believe in them...Victoria by any chance, are you carrying something that is not yours?”
Victoria remembers the medallion, she takes it out and says; “I have this...Uriel, it’s yours right?”
Tiwa notices and says; “Zuni…”
“That’s right, it belonged to my Grandpa...I lost it when I saved you that night…”
“I...already knew...I have been keeping it safe until you accepted going on a date with me…”
“I understand…”
Victoria looks at Uriel with shyness and asks; “Uriel...do you hate me?”
“Why do you ask?”
“It’s just that when we met...you treated me badly and all of a sudden, we are on a date...I think you just want to get revenge because of the way I treat Alejandro…”
Uriel looks at the transparent ceiling and replies; “I don’t hate you…”
Victoria changes her expression to a surprised one; “Really?”
“That’s right...but let me ask you...why do you hate Alejandro so much?”
“It’s because...he often makes me remember my parents…”
“Your parents?”
Victoria stands up and walks a little, she turns around and begins to explain; “Five years ago...on the night of the Borderland Catastrophe...my parents died…”
Uriel opens his eyes wider, Victoria continues to speak; “My parents died because a building fell on top of them...I was adopted by the chief of the police of Rio Grande City...I don’t hate Alejandro...in fact...we used to be friends...but he got obsessed in finding out the truth of that night that he made very uncomfortable questions...that’s why…”
“I see...well, you are not the only one who lost everything that night…” Uriel says to Victoria, Victoria looks at Uriel and asks; “Did you lose someone as well…”
“I lost my father...and my memories…”
“Your memories?” Victoria gets closer to Uriel, Uriel avoids looking at her thinking; “Victoria, it was because of me..that you lost your parents…”
“I’m sorry…” Uriel apologizes to Victoria, Victoria shakes her head; “No...I’m sorry…”
"Victoria, please stop being mean with Alejandro...he is my friend...and I do not tolerate people who act ill against him…"
Victoria smiles; "Okay, I won't...promise…"
"What?" Uriel looks confused, Victoria chuckles; " I said, I forgive Alejandro...if it makes you happy...I will be his friend again…"
"So fast...this girl didn't hesitate at all…" Uriel thinks to himself as he begins to laugh; " You're a strange one...you know that…"
"I could say the same…"
Both of them chuckle, Victoria, feeling anxious begins to play with her fingers; “So...uhmm...I wanted to ask you...if you could...please be...my...boy….”
“There you are hija…” Suddenly, a man wearing a police uniform appears behind Victoria, surprising her.
“PAPA'' Victoria reacts with surprise. Officer Rodriguez looks at Uriel and says:
“So, this is your date?”
“Y-Y-Yes...why are you here?”
“What? It’s only natural for a father to worry about his daughter right?”
Officer Rodriguez takes out a bill and says; “Victoria, can you please bring me a lemonade?”
“But Papa…”
Please, when you bring it...I will be going, I promise…”
“Oh alright…” Victoria grabs the bill and apologizes to Uriel. After she goes for the lemonade, Officer Rodriguez grabs Uriel’s shoulder; “Follow me…”

Bitter
The story of a girl who finds her life is not what she wanted. So she gets another one. Schedule: Story has been completed. Book One is available free on Amazon and EPUB. Books Two to Five are out now. Final Book out soon. Chapters will be around 500-1000 words. This will not change so if you don't like reading very short chapters wait till the end of the week or even end of the month. This many chapters a week isn't easy to pull off so please bear that in mind. This is a VRMMORPG story, but the ones I've read tend to use VR as an excuse to get into a fantasy world and then don't really play up the game aspect other than pulling up a status screen every now and then. To me, MMOs are about more than the fantasy setting. Bugs, exploits, devs who don't understand their own game, OP classes, over the top nerfs, p2w, ridiculous RNG, cash shop fiasco, lockboxes, raging players, broken mechanics, limited bag space, tedious crafting and above all that, a company trying to squeeze money out if its playerbase while pretending they're just in the business of having fun. Of course, then there's the orcs and elves. This story is about finding yourself in a completely immersive fantasy game, but it's also about what a game like that would really be like.
