when your heart's on fire.

Instead of going to Sentosa as planned, suddenly, unexpectedly, we (6D) were whisked into the world of Fisherstory.

I couldn't remember how it really happened. When I gained consciousness later, surprisingly I was back at school and the day seemed as normal as any other day.

I was, as usual, feeling pissed off by Alex and reading my goddamn book which is my source of survival for surviving in class after PSLE. Since I don't play UNO or Stress or whatever crap.

My gosh I'm such a boring person, I don't like to play many games. And I can't understand Archie Comics. ><

Back to the point.

I don't know why people love Maplestory (or Miplestory as my cousin used to say and we joked it into Nipplestory) so much, but the boys were talking about it in front of me. They were going on about some Ah Kua Land (where I expect alot of sissy Ang Kong Kias flirting with their trademark "aiyo"s).

And then there was an earthquake.

It wasn't severe or destructive at first, just the Earth shaking like a lullaby and instantly childhood memories started to overwhelm me. Of course, typical me, I started belting out the rock version of "Rock-a-bye Baby".

Then, owing to my powerful, commanding voice (since I'm the Queen of Styrofoam. Some of you might know this inside-joke =D), the earthquake turned us 360 degrees around and I found myself in the so-called Ah Kua Road.

It came as quite a shock to me. Not only didn't I see Ah Kuas with pink hankerchiefs, I actually saw FISHES!

Our Princess Siew Boon was completely mesmerized by the wonders of the world, but unfortunately, her happiness was short-lived. Within seconds, her puny little head was bitten off by some Level 1 Worm version of Snail.

Queen Miss Lin was completely devastated. She fell to her knees and grieved for her poor daughter, with Queen Mother Mdm Kamisa trying her best to comfort her. Queen Mother Mdm Kamisa and Queen Miss Jan Lin (ok I know they are smiling)

Upon seeing this tragic drama unfold in front of them, Ultimate Five knew something had to be done QUICK to protect the rest of the princes and princesses, including the Queen and the Queen Mother of Fisherstory. We quickly brandished our swords from their sheaths and without half a slash, the worms went dead.

This picture depicts the eternally brave ULTIMATE FIVE!
Due to the rapid speed in which Fisherstory is progressing, fourth job advancement was introduced a year ago.
1st Row: Yan Ting the Dark Knight
2nd Row (from left): Carrissa the Arch Mage of Ice/Lightning, Yoke Kay the Bishop
3rd Row (from left): Yan Ying the Shadower, Odelia the Crossbow Master

However, we were lost at what to do.
"But how do we get back to the real world?" My sister, the worrisome Yan Ting (Dark Knight) asked.
"Oh not to worry, my dear, we'll find away out somehow...Somehow..." I (Shadower) replied, deep in thought.

"Not to worry, brave young fighters. We are here to help," two high-pitched squeaky voices echoed in our ears. We spun around in shock. Right before our very eyes were Mother Teresa Miss Soon and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi Lin Lao Shi (k in actual reality they are both Chinese)!
"Oh we heard that you have made great contributions to the world!" Yoke Kay (Bishop) started to get overexcited and kept bowing to them.
Both Mother Teresa Miss Soon and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi Lin Lao Shi were so pleased by this that they gave her the gift of Healing, much to the envy of the rest of Ultimate Five.

"Oh please, just shut up with your crap, Yoke Kay," Odelia (Crossbow Master) and Carrissa (Arch Mage of Ice/Lightning) rolled their eyes and said in unison. "Oh yes, what can you do to help us now, Mother Teresa Miss Soon and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi Lin Lao Shi?"

"There's nothing much we can do to help, we're apologetic of this," Mother Teresa Miss Soon said. "But we can tell you that in order for 6D to be whisked back into the real world again, Ultimate Five MUST DEFEAT the Level 180 Monster, the Shark version of Big Toad."

"He has been going around killing innocent Fisherers for the past few years, and at the rate he is going, Fisherstory will cease to become extinct," Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi Lin Lao Shi continued. "We need Ultimate Five to bring Fisherstory to peace, once and for all."

"But...Why us?" Yoke Kay asked.

"Because you people are The Chosen Ones, according to the Fisherstory Ocean God. 'Nobody can defeat Big Toad other than Ultimate Five,' he said, 'Not even me.' That's why you'll have to help us," Mother Teresa Miss Soon replied. "Big Toad guards a special portal which will bring you back to the real world. Defeat him and you'll be granted entry."

"But-" my sister started.

"We'll do it," I interrupted. "We don't have a choice, Yan Ting."

Mother Teresa Miss Soon and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi Lin Lao Shi fully-equipped us with armours, weapons and potions, making us feel braver and more prepared than before. After bidding a quick fare-well, we set out with the rest of 6D.

Our second monster wasn't too hard. Just the Level 20 Fish version of Blue mushroom.
Hero summoned: Odelia the Crossbow Master.

Next we came across the Level 40 Fish version of King Slime.
Hero summoned: Carrissa the Arch Mage of Ice/Lightning, leaving a distinctive print on the ground.

Our next crisis was Level 60 dunnowhatshit version of Ice Golem.
Hero summoned: Yoke Kay the Bishop.

Our next target definitely looks sweet, but never judge a book by it's cover! Deep down inside its heart is black. VERY BLACK.

Nothing else but the Level 75 version of Taurospear.
Hero summoned: My sister, Yan Ting the Dark Knight.

The next disaster we had to face was the Level 1o0 Stingray version of Crimson Balrog.
Hero summoned: Yan Ying the Shadower.

"Done. Now what?" I inquired. Ultimate Five exchanged glances and shrugged. We had never felt so lost before, so unsure at what to do.

"I guess we should just...Continue walking?" Yoke Kay asked, her eyes darting to the tunnel in front of her.

"Nope. Too dark. Nope. No way. No way," Yan Ting said firmly.

"Urgh, stop being such a baby," Carrissa teased and rolled her eyes to heaven, "and just GO."

"But-" my sister started.

"No other choice. We must go," Odelia concluded without hesitation.

The journey to Big Toad's shrine was a long walk and we defeated alot of other monsters on our way. Our energy was pretty much drained, but fortunately Yoke Kay the Bishop could recuperate us.

But before we knew it, one of the princes, Nicholas Yong, let out a gayed high-pitched scream and collapsed onto the floor, while the rest of the royal family screamed in terror, obviously traumatized by what had happened. Queen Miss Lin looked like she was about to faint.

Ultimate Five spun around and gasped. Towering over us was the Level 152 dunnowhatcrap version of Bodyguard A!

As everyone knows, I'm way braver than Hercules, and therefore I led the group. However, that thought didn't stay long as when the monster gave me a slash, I writhed around in pain on the floor and screamed in sheer agony.

And of course, that was just a joke. When the monster gave me a slash, I casted a spell on him. Like, DUH! So typical.

The rest of Ultimate Five joined in as well, and soon the scene was rainbow+sparkles-filled. Of course we couldn't see anything because the chaos that reigned was too...Chaotic?

A few minutes later, what was left of the monster was nothing but it's lifeless corpse and a pool of blood surrounding it.

And so we continued our journey. Duh again.

This time we met the dunnowhatthehell version of Bodyguard B.

Fortunately, no members of the royal family was killed in this action. This monster was slightly harder to defeat than the previous one, but we managed to succeed in the end.

"They say...After both bodyguards...Will be Big Toad..." my sister announced, sounding like her heart was caught in her mouth.

I rolled my eyes to higher-than-heaven and started to boast, "No problem for ME. I'm like the most powerful creature on Earth, no arguements here."

Everyone gazed at me with pure admiration. YAY.

I didn't have much time to enjoy all the attention, because in front of me appeared a... ?!?!!??!

"What the @#$%^&*() is that?!" Odelia asked.

"HAHAHAHAA!!!" I laughed madly. "So teeny-tiny! Piece of-"

Before I could finish my sentence, the ?!??!! version of Feudal Lord used its tail to smack my mouth.

...And blood gushed out? Fortunately, my dear Bishop could cure me fast enough and the battle started. It is such a shame to announce that we took hours to fight that teeny-tiny piece of shit.

Finally, it collapsed onto the floor, dead. Whoops of triumph were heard, but not for long.

The ?!??!?! version of Feudal Lord transformed into the Level 180 Shark version of BIG TOAD!!!

"AHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!" 6D screamed and I rolled my eyes to higher-than-high-heaven again.

"Such a bunch of babies," Carrissa retorted. "It's so obvious we can defeat it."

The ferocious battle raged. Dodge, attack, jump, run, cast spell... Repetition, again and again.

"Ok my mistake!! It's impossible to defeat!!" Carrissa yelled in the midst of the chaos, after 7 hours into battle. "It keeps recharging back to full health!"

"That's because you keep talking and you're not concentrating on fighting," I snapped. "So shut up."

And you see, owing to my intelligence (which is so obviously higher than Bill Gate's) and theory that Carrissa kept talking and was not concentrating on fighting, we finally managed to defeat Big Toad. Well after I casted a spell to make her shut up of course.

We walked a few more kilometres and we came face to face with not one, BUT TWO portals. All we did was stare. And stare. And stare.

"Mother Teresa Miss Soon told me that one of the two will bring us back to the real world," Yoke Kay piped up.

"And what will happen if we enter the wrong one?" Odelia asked. Well actually Carrissa wanted to ask but she was so afraid of the Superior Yan Ying that she continued to shut up.

Yoke Kay took a deep breath and said, "Fisherstory will be no more. And we will...Perish together."

Nobody replied to that, and everyone kept staring at the portals. Finally, I said, "The second one."

Everyone turned to look at me.

"Why are you so sure?" Yoke Kay asked.

"Because I always have my own way. I say that one MEANS IT WILL BE THAT ONE," me aka spoilt brat said.

We were in a quandary. After much deliberation, and as no one else had any better idea, we decided to go along with mine. Seconds later we found ourself back in 6D classroom.

See. I told you my instincts are fantabulous.

----------------------------------------------------------

Entirely fictional story. =)

OK I KNOW THE ABOVE IS SUPER LAME + SUPER CRAP.

But then I couldn't think of something more interesting.

Seriously my writing skills are going down the drain, my creativity is getting limited since I sacrificed writing stories (not that kind of story like the above) for PSLE since January.

FAQ Section:

Q: Do you play Maple?

A: Used to. Now I don't like Maple.

Q: Can you sell me your account?

A: NO.

Q: Why?

A: NO REASON.

Q: What level is your Maple character?

A: I stopped at Level 33 (and shut up about "SO NOOB!!" because I don't give a crap about what you think)

OK DONE HERE. SO PLEASE DON'T FLAME MY TAGBOARD WITH MAPLE STUFF BECAUSE I AM NOT INTERESTED. Or audi or gunz or getamped or gunbound or pangya or whatever.

DotA and Warcraft are welcomed. =)

Thankyouverymuch.
