The Simulation [Inactive]

Atlas stared at himself confused by Droids statement, but what he said was true his body was swarmed by a light sage colored mist. The same as when he first entered the game, but didn't think of his stats instead he walked towards Droid holding out a hand.


"Good job.." He mumbled but meant it.
 
Atlases glow slowly disappeared into the air,


"My stats where improved, perhaps my strength..I don't really care at the moment. You alright?" He truly didn't care about himself, he hoped that the Droid though bit living was alright.
 
"Yes... I am... Alright." said Droid. A screen appeared on his arm.


LOW OIL


"Now I am not. Do you have any oil?" he asked Atlas. If he ran out of oil, he would shut down. He forgot to tell Archer that.
 
Rakia leapt down with ease, a little cat like herself. Fluffy remained content in her arms. "Hey.. um.. We should probably stick together. You know.. so if the game glitches again or something we wont get damaged." She said with a lopsided smirk.
 
Atlas bit his lower lip, and though he knew he contained no oil he patted his pockets.


"No, but I don't see the problem in perhaps getting some." He then turned to Rakia with a small nod, "As well we must find oil for Droid.." He informed her dimly.
 
"Where can we find oil though?" asked Archer as he slightly swayed because of his sleepiness.


Then he noticed Rakia smirking. He mentally gulped.
 
Rakia nodded, smiling awkwardly. She saw Archer sway and grabbed his shoulder, keeping him upright. She was pretty exhausted herself but she hadn't had her heart act up for at least and hour now so she was doing good. "Maybe the city. They've got some cool looking places.
 
Atlas looked over at Rakia, wiping an eye as if it'd take away his own sleepiness.


"We'd most likely need money, or I could think up a plan for if we where to commit thievery." He mumbled casually, as if it was a normal topic.
 
Droid nodded his head slowly. "There is oil in the city but I cannot go in there because the polibots might force me into another job." he said. He opened his hand and a map of the city appeared. He gave it to Atlas. "The oil is located at the Motobot Workshop. Do not worry about payment. The owner of the workshop is too lazy to care." he said.
 
Rakia smiled widely. "We don't need sleep yet.. right? We can keep going! To the town! Don't worry droid. You chill and relax a bit. We've got this covered?" She was happy just to keep going. Anything to get her mind off of the scenario. In fact she was slightly desperate to do so.
 
Atlas stared at the map then up at Droid, giving a curt nod.


"It means, rest. Don't move to much if you are low on oil. We'll be back don't worry..." Perhaps he liked Droid because Atlas was like an android himself, socially indifferent and unallowed to show emotion. He memorized the location of the store and placed it in his pocket,


"We should leave earlier then later.."
 
"Er.. relax. Not be cold but just enjoy yourself leisurely? God.. by the end of all this, either Im gonna get a vocabulary or you will get stupid." Rakia stated, a bit awkwardly. She started off, attempting to run there. She was sure that pace wouldn't last but she would rather not run into trouble. "Comon Atlas. Gotta get moving or else we ourselves will be needing the help."
 
Atlas nodded a farewell to Droid then sped after the others silently, slowing when he jogged beside Rakia.


"Soon we'll come to river and when we reach it there should be a bridge that we may cross then we may continue running forward without other interruptions. We should come to the store soon." He informed her, without looking at her his eyes watching the distance.
 
When they reached the river and bridge, Rakia panted heavily. She couldn't help but be disappointed as it seemed she was stuck with her normal stamina in the game. "Flipping stats.." She mumbled breathily. She paused, pointing to the bridge, then continued running. Hopefully her stat would raise after this. "Yep.. m-matter of time.. right?"
 
Atlas nodded quietly, his pace not slowing at the least. He then took this time to really look at his stats, and much like he had desired his strength had increased. Only by one yes, but six was better then five. One of his hands swept his bangs out from in front of his crystal blue eyes. Just in time to spot a town in the distance which slowly grew in size over the horizon.
 
Archer sat down on the grass and rested his head on a rock.


"So bored..." he muttered as he played with his bow. He wondered if his bow had anymore glow colors.


As if on cue, his bow glowed a dark shade of purple. "This better be cool..."
 
Rakia saw the town and sped up, excitedly. She sprinted there without other thought, to see characters roaming and doing their own quests. She finally got to a building, to feel her chest do flips. Rakia grabbed hold of the wall and slid down to her knee, waiting for breathing to work again. While doing so, she marveled at the world she entered. The hover taxis and strange distorted buildings.
 
Atlas slowed down, letting out a small huff of air casually as though it had been nothing. Then turned to Rakia setting a hand on her shoulder,


"You okay...." He whispered, looking at her for a moment waiting for a response then up at the extraordinary town.
 
Rakia nodded, panting until she felt relief. It took a while though, nearly two minutes this time of feeling like a goldfish outside its bowl. "G-good to go... lets hurry so they aren't left long.." She said breathily, getting back up and walking now.
 
Atlas nodded and held out a hand for her to take, her expression a bit amusing to him.


"Don't collapse when we go running back, though you seem light I wouldn't enjoy running with you on my back I can imagine...." He bit his lower lip, hoping she wasn't offended in anyway.
 
Rakia frowned deeply at his words. She nodded, looking ahead. "Okay." She said simply, without any snappy comeback. Her eyes searched the streets for their destination.
 
Atlas let out a small sigh before turning and looking down the road,


"Well, it should be just down the road..." He informed her before beginning to walk down himself, looking behind him to make sure she was following.
 
Rakia tried keeping pep in her step to stay close behind but it was hard. It wasn't like she had the longest legs. "There. I see it." She said, pointing out the shop. "Droid better be happy Im letting him off the hook for the whole Arkia thing and going out of my way." She said, haughtily, but then looked to Atlas and laughed. "And you too.. going out of your way I mean."
