Choco-Coco-Latte is sitting on the ground looking at the sky. his eyes are dry after crying. he sighs at the same time that he is asking himself what would happen if Sarah were at his side. there are so many things that went wrong and so many more that he did wrong but his greatest regret in life was the fact that he was seven minutes late. there is no day in which he doesn't asked himself why didn't I arrived on time? at any moment with no regret he would had prefer it to be him instead of her.

Joaquin calls everyone and he tells them to meat in his office in twenty minutes. for the time being Don-Savage and Peace Inn are on their cabin sleeping like corpses (they were so tired for all the extra work that they did last night) Don-Savage left a note on the door outside making clear that if anyone wakes them up they are dead.
Chicken Wrath is on his bed unable to sleep. what happen last night was hard to swallow, everything seemed to be fine and out of nowhere one of the guys he consider a friend killed two of his friends and left Alpha Purple Warrior half death.
Chicken Wrath is staring to had doubts about the other guys and he is staring to question if he should trust anyone at all in this virtual hell. everything happen so fast that Chicken Wrath didn't have time to have a mental breakdown when he was told that he was dead in the real world and that this was his new reality. but now that he has seen how real is this game he is in denial.
Doctor Middle Finger is with Alpha Purple Warrior in the infirmary. Doctor Middle Finger is half asleep. he couldn't sleep in the whole night afraid that Alpha's situation might get worse, or that he would get an infection or that his wounds would reopen. Alpha Purple Warrior is so much better now. he is in a lot of pain but he is not going to die any time soon.
Alpha Purple Warrior is not just feeling the physical pain on the parts were he was wounded, he is also feeling the emotional pain that you feel when you are betrayed and you feel powerless with the tough of not been able to protect anyone, not even your self. last night left some emotional scars that might not heal at all.
Joaquin Fernandez is walking outside of the town. he is walking around trying to find a place to think in silence about the future of the team. is truth that after losing his life in another game he entered in this game with the hopes of finding a way to recover his life. at first he wanted to used the other guys for his own benefit, but at some point he became too closed with them and now he is afraid of losing any of his friends while he calls himself an idiot for been emotionally weak.
Teacher Hero logs in the game and Choco-Coco-Latte explains to him everything that happened last night. Teacher Hero is in shock unable to believe in those words. it was at this moment that he as able to see the true face of humanity the most rotten species in the earth.
the humans might be one of the weakest species in the world in comparison with ferocious beasts like lions or crocodiles jet is the human the one that has created weapons to hunt and killed those stronger beast and is the human the species that keeps killing its own kind and they invent excuses to keep killing their own kind.
Beau is the only reason why Teacher Hero keeps believing that there might be hope for the humans. if wasn't for Beau Teacher Hero would had give up on the future of the humanity along time ago.
Self-Bet is walking inside of Beau's cabin. she looks at him in a corner with a sad face. it is painful for her to see him like that. he is usually so bright but at this moment there are many dark emotions on his heart and he is crying in silence unable to control his emotions. last night he felt powerless and that scared him a lot.
"I know how you are feeling but this is not the right moment to be weak. we need to be strong because things are just going to be harder.... this isn't a world for the weak so you better be strong in order to stay alive."
yields Self-Bet worry for him.
"I know, I know but I am not strong.... it is a miracle that I am still alive. I had pretend to be strong for too long but the truth is that I am a coward and a cheater under the right circumstances."
yields Beau feeling pathetic.
"you know what? I was wrong in having faith on you. I am so sorry I truly believed that you were stronger than you appear to be but in reality a coward can't learn to give one step forward without giving two backwards."
"I am sorry, I am weak and a coward. I can't change so easily so please can you let me be alone for a few minutes so I can think."
later that day everyone went to Joaquin's office. Choco-Coco-Latte was broken but he couldn't miss this meeting. Joaquin waits for the room to be in complete and absolute silence for him to speak.
"okay everyone we all received the announcement so I think is time for us to become the second guild in this twisted and rotten world if we want to take down the traitor and murderer known as the Mad-Matician and his allies this is the time to do it."
said Joaquin with a strong tone of voice.
there was a long silence in the whole room. they all were thinking in many different things before entering in that room, but at this moment everyone was in complete silence with their minds in blank.
"I want to be part of this guild. I want to destroy the soul and body of Mad-Matician."
said Choco-Coco-Latte looking in front of him with rage.
"then it is already decided. we are keeping the name Unit Zero. since now we are a guild and we most think and act as one."
said Joaquin smirking.
[announcement: members of Bravo-Holly Mommy-One and Unit Zero are now part of the second guild and they are keeping the name Unit Zero with ten members.]
[announcement: The Happy Face Cult is the third guild with fifteen members]
[announcement: Cupcakes Anonymously Smoking, Skull Breaking Silence, Hardcore-Rock-Bitches, Wed Dreamers, and Mortal Cowards are now guilds]
[announcement: Morality&Justice is the last guild to be formed]
[announcement: there are 9 guilds in total. wait till chapter 5 ends to learn the importance that the guilds would take in the next chapters of the game]
at the moment Sweet Linda (former member of H-R-B) is meeting with the Mad-Matician a fellow member of Skull Breaking Silence. in their guild they are forced to wear masks to not be recognized by spies or enemies. it might be a bit extreme to wear masks all the time but it has its benefits to be part of a guild that gives too much freedom to its members.
Sweet Linda fears for her safety after learning what Mad-Matician did to his former teammates (is not that she is afraid that he would try to hurt her but is more like she is afraid that his former teammates would retaliate towards the whole guild instead of a single person) Mad-Matician believes to be stronger so he isn't afraid.
Mad-Matician became friends with Choco-Coco-Latte a few weeks before getting stuck inside of the game so he doesn't know about his past nor about what Choco-Coco-Latte is capable of doing. in his mind Choco-Coco-Latte is just a weak softy who made it this far with help of the other two and who without anyone is incapable of surviving on his own. but what Mad-Matician doesn't know is that when someone does wrong to the people he cares about Choco-Coco-Latte becomes a monster.
"since day one the members of Unit Zero had shown to be more than capable so if they come after us for you fault, we are going to let you deal with it on your own."
"why is that everyone gives too much credit to that bunch of losers. with the eyes closed I could easily take down the whole group. they are not worth our time nor we should waste our saliva in them. instead we should talk about a more serious matter which is Man with no Face and his 'Curse' which can be a drawback for us."
"at the moment is convenient for us to be at the shadow of Western Legends. I heard that everyone in their guild is a monster as well is the Happy Face Cult, if you want to stay alive I recommend you to stay away from those groups also wasn't you the one who wanted to serve Man with no Face not so long ago. you were even dragging yourself for an opportunity to be on his side."
"yes that is true, I won't deny it. jet I can't stop thinking that he has a really dangerous 'Curse' that allows him to see the future, and if in that future that he sees either of us becomes an obstacle or worthless..... it wouldn't be hard for him to erased us out of the equation without our knowledge."
"what are you talking about? had you become insane Mr. brains? we are allies and he is no mad man, so how is that you are so sure about his intentions or desires to killed those whom are of more convenience to him alive."
"is because I am a smart man that I can put myself on his shoes and think clearly. his 'Curse' allows him to see the future so if in one out of ten visions he has, he sees someone becoming a danger to him the most logical thing for him to do is killing that person rather than risking his own life by giving that person the benefit of the doubt. there shouldn't be any person with a 'curse' like that, because those whom can see their own future get wrapped in madness.... it isn't necessary for a man like that to die to experience death when they see it so often on their own visions."
"with that example is enough for me to see how hard must be for him to stay sane, I don't know if at the moment I feel pity or genuine sorrow to think that a human can live to experience more than one death."
"that is why we are in danger and we must be ready with a solution, because is not a matter of if he would eventually get rid of us..... but a matter of when."
Hades is in his throne on the underworld. the Ferryman kneels in front of him and he informs him that Man with no Face wants to speak with him. Hades looks at him with rage. Hades is a Deity who doesn't trust in others especially mortals who can easily die and who would do anything in order to survived, for him mortals are nothing more than rats running with their tail in between their legs submerging in the dirt if it is possible for them to survived.
the Ferryman knows his master so well that he knows what he is thinking at this moment. jet he can't comprehend why is that his master is interested in a mortal like Man with no Face, a mortal that can be dangerous if they aren't careful enough around of him, a mortal who doesn't responds to the sight of blood and death.
