Frank and D-11 went to go find the guy with the quest... but they had forgotten where he was.
"Ok, let's try this way" Frank said as he pulled up the town map. "Ok, I'm the blue dot, but are you the green dot or the gray dot?" Frank asked.

Meanwhile, Toz was off on a solo adventure to define his personality so that later arcs could focus on character development rather than establishment... but that is far too meta.
"Off I go to get some exp!"
"How do you pronounce that? Is it ex pee? Eek spee?" It was Striker, Toz's wisecracking coyote familiar, who had been invisible next to him the entire time.
"I just said it! You should know how to pronounce it!"
"The readers didn't hear you say it!"
"Ugh..."

Meanwhile, Frank was off on a quest himself. It was a simple delivery, but worth 1200 gold and 500 exp, so it was worth it. On the way, he ran into an interesting guild of characters, who not everybody here is familiar with, but they fit perfectly in this universe.
"Oh hello there, I'm Frank; who are you?"
"I am Roy Greenhilt, and these are my friends, the order of the..."
"Attack!!" Said the short guy with the daggers in the green shirt. Frank stopped him with his targe.
"Hey! I'm not an enemy!" Frank said.
"He is not an enemy, don't you see? We can be filled with glee! With glee!" As the guy with the blonde hair started singing.
"Uh...does he do that a lot?" Frank asked
"More often than you think". Roy Greenhilt said as he face palmed.

While Toz was laughing; he got the reference.
Suddenly, a evil skeleton, a goblin with a red cape, a shadowed figure with a pink umbrella, and several red cockroaches showed up.
"More references!" Toz chuckled, as the shadowed figure began saying "Gate? What gate?"

"Well, there's At The Gates. That's a metal band, known for their album Slaughter of the Soul, and the song 'Blinded By Fear'."

Actually, frank hadn't left D-11; while neither of them were paying attention, they wound up separating in the forest.
"The plan is working perfectly!" The leader of the group said. With D-11 separated, the eight men leaped out and ambushed him.
"Give us your money and stuff and we won't kill you!" The leader said.
"Never!" D-11 said. Just then, green, rectangular bars appeared over everyone's heads.
"What are those?" One grunt asked.
"They're health bars; it means we're in battle now." Another explained.
"I got him!" The grunt with a bow and arrow said. He fired an arrow right at D-11's heart.
"Bull's eye!" He said.
"Ah, you got me! You got...huh?" To d-11's surprise, the arrow disintegrated and a red "-14" appeared over the health bar, and a bit of it turned red.
"Dang it! I hate health bar based combat; it's so annoying". One of the guys fumed.
"Who cares? Attack!" And the eight guys charged at d-11.

One of these numbers appeared over each of the bad guys heads. But they still stood.
"Darn it! Now I hate health bar based combat too!" D-11 replied.
"Well now you're finished!" As the eight of them charged in for the attack.

In a strange world where nothing made sense. As he began falling up, he passed through an asteroid field and imagined himself riding a magical flying green unicorn. but then, a cannon appeared out of no where, and blasted him back into reality.
When he awoke, his head was throbbing, and he was in a bath tub full of ice.
"Huh? Oh no! Does this mean... no, still have my kidney. What the heck happened?" He asked himself.

"I'll tell you what happened," said a feminine-sounding voice. Eyes looked up. "Who are you?" he asked. "My name is Xex." |

While D-11 tried to make sense of what happened, In the mean time, Frank had completed his delivery.
"Mission Complete; 500 XP, 122 gold" a voice said.
"yes!" Frank said.
Back at the bathtub, D-11 was trying to make sense of what happened.

It turned out he wasn't in a bathtub, he was in a river by a railway line.
"You're name is.... Xex?"
