__The name of the online game is fictional, and so is the adress, character name, hotmail account and etc.__

I just got back from school and one of my friends told me about a online game called "Fantasy Realm". It was a anime-designed online game where you create your avatar/toon character and do quests to level up and get coins.

It seemed harmless at the time. It asked for your first and last name, credit card number, username, password, adress and etc.

First Name: Jayson Last Name: Sollivan Desired Username (Used for login and forum name purposes): KillerFang

The name "KillerFang" went red and a note popped up saying: That username is already in use. Try Again" So, I tried Fire_dragon. Taken. Ice_Dragon. Taken. Fire_'n'_ Ice. Username may only contain a-z and numbers 1-9. Fire_n_Ice. Taken, Then, thousands of username failiures later, I finally got one.

First Name: Jayson Last Name: Sollivan Desired Username (Used for login and forum name purposes): cantseemtogetausername123 Email: thestealthyninja123@hotmail.com Account Details

Card Number: ### ##### ## ##### # Card Holders Name: Derrick Sollivan

I sneaked my dads credit card out of his wallet, knowing that he wouldnt let me use it.

Security Code: ######

And finally, Address.

Street: 14 Cornelious Street Country: United States State: Mumbert

I clicked onto "Sign Up" and waited for the bar to load. The game was free, and was risk-free, as far as I knew. Apparently I knew nothing, at the time.

I created my character and picked my race. The races were: Magical Beings, who specialized in magic and in healing friendly members. Warriors, who specialized in the art of sword combat. Archers, who weilded the bow and arrow, and were better at fighting from a distance. Were's, who, if the gender was male, could transform i either a tiger, lion, or wolf. Whichever you chose, but also specialised in one-on-one combat, but instead, weilded a battle-axe or hammer. But for female weres, a fox, demoness, and kitty-tiger.

I chose were's, and I chose to be the tiger.

I completed quests, hit many levels, and met people. I was currently level 32, and I was chatting to: xX_Creature_of_the_night_Xx who was a female magical being. Her name was Samantha and was 14 years old. I trusted her and told her my age, also 14, and told her my first name only. We had great fun, completing quests and helping eachother kill monsters. I also made friends with: BloodBone

Then, one day while playing Fantasy Realm, my computer just crashed. I tried switching it on and off, but the screen remained the same, old, blacksreen which reflected my worried face. I never thought much of it. I would come home from school, told by Brian to add him as a friend, under: dfhgfhddsdfdf A username which came about when he ran out of username ideas and just hit random key's.

I tried my computer again, and it successfully swithed on. A smile ripped itself across my glowing face. When I tried to log on, it said "Username or password could not be found" and under it were two links. Forgot Password? and Login is not working.

I did not click on any yet, I just tried typing my password in very slowly, making sure to press on the keys very hard. "Username or password could not be found"

Suddenly, I heard my dad yelling downstairs. Curiousity getting the better of me, I walked downstairs. My dad was sitting on the couch, his face burined into his hands, him bending over so he faced the floor. My mother was giving Cortez, my brother, a stern look. Oh, did I mention I have a brother? He was 13. I heard my dad let out a shaky sigh. He stood up and made his way over to the kitchen island, where my mother was. I walked into the kitchen as well.

"CORTEZ! HOW DARE YOU DO TAKE THAT FROM YOUR FATHER!" Yelled my mom. "Take what?" I asked, but they all ignored me.

"IT WAS NOT YOURS TO TAKE, AND THANKS TO YOU, YOUR FATHERS EMPTY!"

"What are you people talking about?" I asked again, still no stinkin' reply. I folded my arms.

Cortez snapped his head up, probably for the second time because he said "For the onehundreath time, I. didnt. TAKE IT!" He yelled back. See? He said "onehundreath" he must have said it more than once.

My dad soon spoke up. Well, YELLED up anyway... "CORTEZ! I KNOW YOU HAVE PLAYED A GAME RECENTLY! I SAW A USERNAME AND PASSWORD WRITTEN ONTO A NAPKIN, WHICH WAS SITTING ON THE LOUNGE COFFEE TABLE!"

I un-folded my arms, slowly coming to terms with what they were yelling- Uh, I mean "talking" about. Cortez threw his arms into the air. "WHAT USERNAME AND PASSWORD?! WHAT GAME?! I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!"

"FANTASY REALM! I SAW THE NAME OF IT WRITTEN ABOVE THE USERNAME AND PASSWORD!"

My eyes widened. Uh-oh... I tried to sneak out of the room and act like I wasnt trying to sneak out. My mother and father both looked at me.

"Was it you who did this, Jayson?" I pretended to be offended. "What?! NO! Of course not!" My mom walked over to me. "Jayson." she started "I gave birth to the two of you, and Cortez doesnt have the face of someone lieing. But YOU do..." she said.

Then, i just broke down. I told her about everything. From my friends telling me about the game all the way to my computer crashing.

"IM SO SORRY!" I pleaded. "I DIDNT MEAN TO! THE GAME LOOKED SO COOL AND IT WAS FREE!"

My fathers account was hacked into and thousands of dollars was stolen. Money my parents, I quote, "Worked hard for" un-quote.

My dad and mother yelled at me, while Cortez went up to his room to escape the mayhem. I was grounded for 3 months. I felt really guilty. My parents were disappointed in me, thats for sure.

One day, when I arrived home there was a car I have never seen before parked across the road in front of Lilith's house. A girl in my class.

I walked inside and went upstairs. I went onto my computer just to do one more thing. I logged onto my account. Clicked on the button which represented the "Options" and I slowly dragged my cursour onto "Delete Account" with one click, this cursed account will be gone.

//Click//.

A box popped up. It read: Are you sure you want to delete your account? I clicked ont othe "Yes" box. And it was gone. Probably not forever. But it was gone.

Home alone and with nothing to do, I went downstairs. I saw a person with a black hood over his head standing in the kitchen. I freaked. I screamed and screamed and screamed. But my mouth was muffled by the persons hand. His hood fell off revealing a evil man smirking. "Hello, cant seem to get a username 123." He said, in a mysterious way. My eyes widened, I was too scared to say anything. "I'm blood bone..." I screamed again, but it was barely audible. Especially to the neighbours. I heard the scrapping of metal then somethign being shoved into my side. Tears streamed down my face. My side went numb and blood bone dropped me to the ground. Leaving me to reminisce about the stupid game known as Fantasy Realm. Soon, the numb feeling started to spread down my side, across my hip, and down to my left leg. Soon, my whole body was numb. Blood bone already left in the strange car I saw when I got home.

I barely had enough energy or will power to whimper and make myself cry so I can drown in my own pathetic tears. There were black spots flashing around the corners of my eyes. The became bigger, then, they didnt bother to flash away. They remained. Growing bigger and bigger 'till I could only see darkness.

I remembered what I did to dad. How much sorrow I caused him by my own stupidity. I am naive. Blood bone must have hacked the account.

Soon, I was too weak to think, and I was too exhausted to cry anymore. The last thing I ever heard was the scream of my mother, and the last thing I felt was her had stroking my soft brown hair.
