Chapter 57: Plan in motion
Jennifer nodded calmly. \'You can\'t lie to me, Mira\' she thought inwardly removing her windbreaker coat. She placed it on the couch.
"Why would Michael leave you alone?" She asked taking a sit beside Mira.
"That is the secret." Mira smiled.
"Oh wow, what is this secret you have been keeping from me?"
"No. No. No. Tell me why you didn\'t visit your best friend for a whole five years?" Mira asked with pouted lips.
"Aww... I\'m sorry for that bestie, As you already know. My Dad bought a house in clear sky street..."
"Clear sky street? Where is that?" Mira asked with a raised brow.
"Oh Mira, sky street is just 100 miles from here, even though it is close by I couldn\'t..." She sighed.
"...I am sorry for not visiting sooner, it\'s just that 3 years ago I lost my parents--"
"Lost your parents? Did uncle and aunty..."
Jennifer nodded slowly. Mira was stunned for a second, Next moment; she hugged Jennifer\'s waist tightly.
"I am so sorry bestie, it might have been hard for you"
Jennifer smiled, stroking Mira\'s hair. "Thank you, Mira, Now forget all that and tell me the secret. The suspense is killing me--"
"--I have a question." Mira cut her off. "Do you still have a crush on my brother?" She asked sitting comfortably.
"Huh? What?! I..." Jennifer was speechless, she wasn\'t expecting this question.
"Come on! Answer me bestie."
"What are you asking Mira? That\'s all in the past."
"So you are saying you don\'t have a crush on my brother?" Mira asked. "When we went out for lunch, everyone gathered around us in the restaurant. Mostly men and women... I asked you the question because most of the ladies were asking if he has a girlfriend. You don\'t know, but my brother is so handsome now."
"Really? I heard he had a girlfriend. What is her name again?" Jennifer thought for a moment.
"You mean Sara?" Mira asked.
"Yes, what about her? Are they not together anymore?"
"She is Dead." Mira revealed with a straight expression.
"Dead?" Jennifer was stunned. "How?"
"To know that and the secret, you need to buy me an ice cream." She said with a cunning smile.
"You still love ice cream?" Jennifer asked in mild surprised.
"Yes, there is a man who sells ice cream in the neighborhood. Brother always buys from him, Let go!" Mira stood up.
Jennifer nodded with a chuckled. "OK then, let go."
The two walked outside to buy ice cream.

[Skull guild\'s building.]
In a small hall, 20 people stood calmly with different weapons hanging on their backs and waists. They all had grim expression on their faces after hearing the opponent guild.
"Don\'t be scared all of you, our guild is stronger than the Shadow guild. We are stronger than them, let show them why they are below us on the Guilds\' ranking board!!" The guild master yelled.
The 20 people, both males and females were silent slowly moving their gaze from one member to another.
The guild master frowned slightly seeing their expression, He turned to his vice who just shrugged also confused.
After a moment of awkward silence, A member raised his hand. "A question, guild master"
"Go ahead." Said the guild master with a smile.
"Thank you. I just want to say, the Shadow guild have at least 4 bronze medal 2 stars holders. There\'s news that a LV20 player have joined them, their guild master is a Bronze medal 3 stars and also a LV25--"
"--Thanks for reminding us, what is your question?" The guild master asked in a dark tone.
This fool was just using another way to tell them how incompetent they were towards the Shadow guild.
"No offense, but we only have 2 bronze medal 2 and 3 stars holders, which are you and the vice. Both of you might be able to hold on, but what about the rest of us? We are just bronze medal 1 stars, none of us are even above LV15."
The guild master was silent. \'This fool don\'t even have a question, but all the things he said is the truth.\' He scoffed.
"You are right, the Shadow guild have more powerful members than us, but I have a plan."
"A plan?"
"What Is this plan?"
"Can it help us win against the Shadow guild?"
"Let listen to the plan."
Everyone stared at the guild master, waiting to hear his plan.
"Ahem." The guild master cleared his throat. "The plan is pretty simple, there is a Gold medal holder in blackwater neighborhood. And that is the exact location I chose for the Guild War battle."
The members frowned slightly.
"What are you saying guild master?"
"Yes, what about the people?"
"Don\'t talk about the people, what about the cops?"
"Yes guild master, Guild War can result to players using skills. You know it\'s against the law if a player harm a Non-player for no reason."
"Calm down all of you, our vice guild master here have built a wooden fence around the field. No one will get hurt, and I have already dealt with the cops."
The guild members weren\'t settled with this plan. Ameria\'s president built a huge Guild War Arena outside the city for things Like this, They just have to pay for the entry fee; that all.
The guild master sighed. "I am only choosing the neighborhood because of the gold medal player."
"Gold medal player?"
"Who is this Gold medal holder?"
"How can a gold medal player help us against the Shadow guild?"
"If this gold medal player can join our guild, we will be boosted to top 50 at most."
"Yeah, but why will a gold medal player join us? Our guild don\'t have anything they need."
"Calm down everyone! She won\'t join us, but we\'ll use her anger against the Shadow guild!." The guild master yelled.
The members only heard one word from that sentence. "Did he just said "She"?"
