'Its all my fault... Its all my fault... it's all my fault' Juno repeated in her head over and over while curling up in a ball. 'I hurt grace by ignoring that quest... This never would have happened if I had took whatever that was seriously.' Juno though while crying letting guilt wash over her. 'I'm so sorry Grace' She thought while staring at her phone in a daze.
~Trial quest failed now creating system helper~
A robotic voice was heard in Junos mind, as a small spirit like existence appeared infront of her. Juno's eyes dilated looking at this floating spirit. It was very small, seeming as if it could fit in the palm of her hands if she reached out to it. The small spirit was translucent but gave off a light hue of green. "W... what are you..?" Juno mumbled under her breath. "I am the system helper" A voice echoed in Junos mind. The voice was small and wispy with a slightly high pitched voice making it seem cute yet helpless. Juno closed her eyes trying to shut the system out of her mind. 'I don't want another quest... I just want to rest right now...' She thought as she tried to just stop thinking altogether. ~System hibernation mode enabled~ A small robotic voice said as Juno fell asleep.
A few hours passed as she slept with no disturbances. Her mind silent and dreamless, as she rested quietly escaping reality.
*BANG*
A loud abrupt sound startled Juno awake. The sound appeared to be coming from downstairs. Sitting up, from the shock of being woken up, she looked around the room frantically. Taking a few breaths she soon settled down and glanced at the clock by her door. '8:00 pm... Was that mom in the kitchen..? I thought dinner would be ready by now... It's not like I eat with them though... What was that sound though did something happen?... Maybe... I should go and check it out.' Juno thought getting out of bed. With light steps she snuck down stairs and made her way to the kitchen door. Peaking in she saw her mom cleaning a dish. Her dad was just a few steps behind her leaning against the kitchen island.
"What more do you want me to do Sophia..?" He said as he stared at his wife's back. "I don't know... I just can't stand to look at her anymore..." She said with a soft voice staring intently at the glass she was cleaning. Hearing her answer his brow began to furrow together. With a small sigh he began to press his fingers against his furrowed brow. "Shes only 15 years old... Just wait three more years and she will be gone... okay?" He said in a soft voice. "I hate the sight of her shane..." She said as she tightened her grip on the glass she was cleaning. He went silent staring at her quietly. The silence was dreadful as the atmosphere just got worse. After a few minutes Shane began to speak. "Don't be like this Sophia... I always ignore her like you want me too. Are you still mad at me about what happened? It was so long ago and I can't change the past... I know I messed up back then, but honestly Sophia I believe I've done more then enough to make up for it." He paused not getting a reply. "Fine... Be like that... Its to late to get rid of her now though, you know that better then me... I'll leave you alone now." He said leaving the kitchen and walking to the dining room. Sophia continued to clean the dishes in complete silence, unaware of Juno presence.
'were... they talking about me..?' Juno thought as she wore a sad smile. Leaning against the wall she lowered her head in silence. 'I really am just in the way of everyone... I wonder... Would Grace... be better off without me..? I know everyone else would be...' Juno thought as she began to cry without realizing. Sliding down she sat limply on the ground. staring at the wall in a daze she kept crying silently. Her eyes looked empty as they glazed over. 'If I didn't have Grace... I don't think I would have last this long...' She thought as her emotions became more unstable. 'Someone that important... Because of me... She...' Juno thought as her vision began to blur from the tears. ~Host emotions unstable... forcefully ending hibernation~ The familiar robotic voice rang in Juno's mind. The small spirit appeared once again infront of Juno. "Hello host. The system is up and running again and the trial quest is finished. The practice is over... Meaning it is time for the real main quest." The small voice said ignoring Juno's mental state. "I will explain what you need to know soon. For now just accept the quest screen that is about to pop up." The small spirit said staring at the crying juno with no remorse.
~Main quest~
Mission: Main mission will be given once host has entered mission location. {Accept quest to enter mission location}
Reward: Unknown
Failure: Unknown
Time limit: Unknown
*Accept/Rejecte*
'Mission location..? Does this mean that if I accept... I will be taken away from here..? This will take me somewhere far away? If that's the case...' Juno thought staring at the accept button in a daze. 'The only person that might have missed me was... Grace... and I don't think I could bring myself to face her right now...' Juno thought as in her daze. 'Mom can't stand the sight of me... everyone ignores me... and the only person that gave me a little bit of light went through something terrible because of me...' Juno thought bringing her trembling finger towards the accept button. 'I don't care where it is... Anywhere would be better then here right now... anywhere...' She thought hitting accept on the floating screen. The world began to spin getting darker and darker. Her limbs became heavy as her body fell on the ground and she fell unconscious.
