Sorry this was so late everyone. Usually I start writing and I'll just keep going and going. Then when I finally stop I'll go back and cut about a third of it, I like to keep what I write neat and smooth. Anyways this time I cut about eighty percent of it. For some reason I just couldn't stop every other sentence from rhyming with the one before it. This whole chapter sounded like a long corny poem. I have the next chapter completed already. I'm not sure how many people actually read my fanfic but if you would like I'll post it by Thursday night.
Once again if anyone has a good idea for this chapters name please let me hear it.

As I was running to the Eager Beaver I couldn’t help but have a huge grin on my face. I know I must have looked extremely creepy, maybe even scary but I couldn’t help it. I didn’t really care either, all I could think about was that all the time, effort, and planning was about to bear fruit. I have been waiting for this moment for far too long.
After I finally arrived at the Eager Beaver I stood in front of doorway trying my hardest to calm down and put on my best poker face. As I entered I was immediately greeted with a smiling face and a cute voice “Hello and welcome to…” It wasn’t long before Elizabeth noticed it was me, it was fairly easy to tell when she figured it out by her attitude. It had changed completely “What are you doing here?” I ignored the question while walking towards the counter, while I was walking I asked, “Where’s your father?”
“I asked you a question first and how many times do I have to tell you?” Her voice gradually became angrier as she continued “You can’t be here!” I replied in a sarcastic and nonchalant way, “I hear what you’re saying but in my defense I don’t really give a damn.” She was starting to get really pissed you could see it on her face. “Oh so help me Freya, I’m gonna kill em, I’m gonna kill em!” Seeing her like this brought a smile to my face. I kind of wanted to see how far I could push her, so I said “Why don’t you just calm down and do something that’s befitting your place in society, I know how about you make me a sandwich?”. “EEEGGHHHHH!!!!” she screamed as she threw a mug at me.
“Sound of mug exploding on wall!” I dodged it easily like a true zen master, I was so efficient and precise in the way I moved my body that there were no wasted movements. After all the training I had gone through in the game and in real life it was a feat that I could easily do. How I did that was by not moving at all.
She didn’t even get close, she had terrible aim. She was off by at least twenty feet. “Ohhh noooo” I said in a sarcastic tone “Look now there’s a mess, hold on I’ll get someone to clean it.” I looked around even though she was obviously the only other person in the room. After shrugging I said while trying not to laugh “Oh well looks like you’re going to have to do it. Well it’s only natural you are a woman after all.”
“EEEGGHHHHH!!!!!! I’M GONNA KILL YOU, I’M GONNA KILL YOU DEAD!!!!!” she screamed even louder than before. An extremely strong pressure, an overwhelming killing intent filled the room. It was so strong I was having trouble breathing, my body wasn’t listening to me I couldn’t move. The room fell completely silent. All I could here was my own heart beat. I looked at Elizabeth thinking I made a grave mistake, but upon looking at her terrified face I could tell that this pressure wasn’t her doing.
She looked so scared that she was at the point where tears where building up in her eyes.
A creaking noise could be heard coming from the doorway that lead to the second floor. Every few seconds there was some type of creaking noise. The sound of the creaking was getting closer and closer. Whatever was making the noise was coming down the stairs. As it got closer the overwhelming pressure increased. I could tell that it was near the last few steps. Then I heard something a bit different, something unexpected.

“PPfff”…”Hahahahahahahaha!!!” down stumbled her father laughing his ass off. “I see you’re just as bad as your father when it comes to women.” He said while grinning and trying to stop laughing. Then he continued “You guys take me back. It’s like watching how your father and Jessica use to fight.” “Mom knew his dad?” Elizabeth asked. “Her moms Jessica! Wait that means you and Jessica got together?” I said dumbfounded, that statement caught me completely off guard. Replying to his daughter Derek said, “Yeah honey, all three of us use to travel together.” Then he looked over at me and asked, “You know about Jessica? Ha-ha that makes me happy, your father must have talked about us.”
I was now full of questions and I wanted answers. “So that means you two got together? Wait where is she? I haven’t seen her around, how ha” I noticed as I was talking that the mood in the room had completely changed, it was now gloomy and depressing. After I stopped talking the room fell into an awkward silence.
Derek was the first to say anything, “Wow now that I’ve taken a good look at you, you seem much stronger and you even got yourself a proper weapon.” I could tell he was trying to change the mood. “Yes I even completed the basic training.” I said. You could see the surprise on Derek’s face, then he replied “What really, you did that in only a month? It took me almost four.” I couldn’t help but smile “I heard it was six.” “Eh, ugh, well,” Derek was stumbling on his own words. Then Elizabeth chimed in “Pfff, it’s nothing to be proud of there have been tens of thousands of people that have done it, even I did it.”
What she had just said surprised me. She didn’t seem like the type to do something like that. Derek then said “It’s not that he completed it, it’s the speed with which he completed it. Plus the only reason you completed it was because I sent you there for a couple of hours every weekend since you were eight. It took you over six years to complete it.” You could easily see that she was a little ticked off by what he just said. “It’s doesn’t matter how long it takes as long as you get it done.” She said with a bit of an attitude.”
~Wow she is just like her mother. I’m surprised that I didn’t notice sooner. The color of her eyes and hair, the way her hair flows elegantly, her pink and slightly plumb lips. Even the way her attitude changes so easily. Though, the dead giveaways are obviously her hotheadedness and stubborn personality.~
“Actually I’m quite surprised you completed the basic training. You don’t look it one bit.” As I was saying this to Elisabeth, she was getting upset. “Are you trying to start another fight!?” “No I think you have misunderstood. I mean you’re so breathtakingly beautiful, I would have never guessed that someone that had even a fraction of your beauty had undergone such strict training, it’s quite impressive” As I was talking she started blushing, by the time I was done she had her hands up to her face. I could tell she was about to say something when her father interrupted. “Okay that’s enough of that!”
“So it seems you made good on your end of the deal here’s the key.” Derek said while handing me a mithril key.
