James couldn't take it anymore. he made sure no one was looking and
he put a sphere on the teleportation pad. Then it was gone. He
walked back into the crowd and watched as the sphere took video
from his tablet.
Daphnes asked Kioiki, "What do you mean?" He sensed what James had
done, but brushed it aside. 'I just Aleph doesn't notice and get
upset!' He said to himself, knowing Aleph saw and was probably mad
James watched on the tablet and made the sphere move to the other
side of the ship. He saw all the pirates and was in awe "Those look
so realistic" he thought.

"Nosy child. Not waiting to see what it looks like for himself,
tsk, tsk. Oh well...guess we'll have to teach him a lesson..." The
voice hissed. "Let's see....Oh! I know, heh, heh. Send out the
Shocking Fleas. (Small fleas, that give off electric waves)
"Uhh Daphnes we have a problem!" She whispered as she pulled him
away "Something just happened the stuff gliched and it now says we
released a flock of shocking fleas! Why would he do that?"
Aré's voice rang out as Brooke and Tashiro approached the question
stand. 'You will recieve the Water Orb if you answer this
question correctly: How can you throw a ball as hard as you can and
have it come back to you even if it doesn't hit a hard surface,
there is nothing holding on to it, and no one else catches it or
throws it? Please write your answer on the pad before you.'
"What!" Daphnes hissed. "Oh no! I know! It's because James was
trying to get a look at the holograms, and that did not make him
happy. Why did James do that!" He added groaning.
"I may have the answer, but I'm not too sure about it. It does make
sense though... Does up in the air work for you Brooke?" Tashiro
asked, looking for a better answer than his
Lollita was watching the screenes with unreadable face but inside
her head it was working like a machine ? This trial was far too
alive , like somebody was controling everything . Not a system but
a person ... But thats not her main problem . What if she get in
the trian and they will tell her to kill animal ?! No no and No !
She will never hurt animal , NEVER ! But if she had a humanoid
enemies it would be easier , right ? Maybe she can do something to
make this ´system ´ stawn humanoids instead of animals , yes !
But.. how ?
Daphnes watched Lollita. "Sorry, but you can't!" He called out to
her. "He makes you do things, you don't want to do. And....you
can't change that." He added.
Lollitas eyes sparkled , this is getting interesting "He ? Oh , so
its person after all , some kind of system creature ?! I will just
nicely ask him to give me human enemies instead ! I am sure that he
is nice , maybe he is just bored and he likes to see us playing
games but when he learn that i dont like game he will change it !"
She said with smile on her face , it seems like she dont understand
. She is always trying to see good in everybody and she cant accept
the reality that some people just simply cant be good
Daphnes walked over to her and put his hands on her shoulders.
"Lollita, look up there." He commanded her pointing to a cubical
room hanging from the ceiling. "Up there is a ruthless monster. No
kindness in the grey, dead heart that lies in his chest." He let
this sink in
James felt a little spark on his arm but ignored it. He looked from
the sphere listening to the question through his earbud. "Hmmm" he
thought. Those holograms aren't doing anything bad so maybe we just
need to answer questions?" he thought
Lollita stepped back quickly , almost hitting the wall behind her ,
Daphnes was getting too close and she doesnt trust him , there is
something strange with him "A-Are you sure ? But he is helping us
with these trials , right ? He is helping us to bacome stronger
.... there is little spark inside of everybody" She said , her face
was still smiling but it was more than sure that she doesnt believe
herself. "My parents was always telling me that everybody is nice ,
you just have to get to know them . You dont believe that all
people are nice ?" She asked , waiting for answer
