Inside the virtual reality game, Scarlett and Ashley were at the bottom lane, facing off against the two boys. One of them was an archer type like Scarlett. While the other warrior held to scimitar blades.When the two met and locked in combat, the Woo Woo players were surprised by how strong Ashley actually was. She was not only able to attack well but knew the right time to dodge the arrow shots and attack at the same time.
This caused pressure for the Woo Woo team and the girls managed to push them back to their tower. But while they were retreating, Scarlett managed to get a shot in hitting the Woo Woo"s Archer"s leg. The crowd outside seeing this cheered in response.
The Woo Woo archer then decided to head back to their castle to get some first aid supplies. The game had a basic first Aid kit that could only be used at the castle. The main reason for heading back would be to take painkillers.
This would allow your warrior to fight through the pain and play as if they weren"t injured but their health points would still take a hit. An example of this would be this very case.
The Woo Woo player took an arrow to the leg. Once the arrow had been pulled out it caused the Warrior to have a slight limp and made him move slower around the map but it was not a fatal blow and didn"t do much damage.
In this situation it would be ideal for the player to head back to the castle to take the painkillers, allowing them to walk and run like normal again.
While the Woo Woo archer headed back to the castle, it meant they only had one player defending their tower. Ashley and Scarlett were getting excited and so was the crowd outside. They continued to push forward and were slowly taking down the tower.
Some time had pa.s.sed and any second now, the Archer would come back.
"Be on the lookout." Scarlett said, "The archer could come back any second now, if they come behind us, we"re going to be trapped."
Some more time had pa.s.sed and that was when Scarlett had realised her mistake.
"Oh no!"

Instead of going back to the bottom lane. The Woo Woo team player had decided to go through the forest and wait for the right time to attack Frank.
Initially, the Woo Woo players were surprised by how skilful the Montem players were. They were meant to be Bronze players but they all fought on the gold level. However, unlike the teams before them, Woo Woo had done their research.
Woo Woo had watched Montem"s games and quickly found out why they were all bronze players. They didn"t know how to play the game, they were just good fighters.
Back at top lane, Novis and Dan had just received the notification.
"c.r.a.p they got Frank," Novis said. "What do we do, should we go mid and protect the tower?"
Just as Novis had said those words, the two players on Woo Woo"s team had moved into the forest.
"I think they"re going for the mid-tower, we should follow them," Novis said.
"But what if they"re going bottom to group up against the girls?" Dan asked.
"Maybe just one of us go mid then."
"And if all five of them come out, we"ll be dead in seconds."
There were too many choices, too many things the Woo Woo team could do and they had grown to accustomed to relying on Alex to make all the decisions. Just now were they realising how important it was to make the right call.
In the end, Novis and Dan decided to head to mid together. They had already lost one player, if they split up now, they felt like it would only be harder for them to make a comeback.
When the two of them had reached the middle lane, There was no one to be seen which meant that they had decided to get rid of Scarlett and Ashley at the bottom.
"Come on let"s pick up the pace," Novis said.
The two of them were a little behind the others and knew they wouldn"t reach their teammates in time but were hoping they could last long enough for Novis and Dan to get there.
Dan was running slightly ahead of Novis through the forest and that"s when Novis spotted something come out from the corner of his eye. Novis flung out his chain blade and managed to just knock out the arrow in the air before it hit Dan.
More arrows started to fly out from their right side, Novis started swinging his two-chain blades in a circular motion creating a s.h.i.+eld-like effect.
"Keep running Dan, they need you." Novis said.
Dan didn"t hesitate and continued to run while Noivs would deal with the Archer.
Back at the bottom lane, even though Ashley and Scarlett were close to taking the tower after the announcement of Frank"s death, Scarlett felt like it was best for them to play it safe. The two of them decided to head back and stay close to their tower.
That"s when Krang the hammer wielder had come through the forest to help out their duel scimitar warrior.
"We need to take one of them down before the others get here," Ashley said.
"But it too risky," Scarlett replied.
"But when their whole team gets here, we"ll be dead before Dan and Novis even make it." Ashley replied, "Scarlett trust me."
Scarlett had no choice, after all, Ashley was right and so many times before she had been able to pull through for them.
Ashley moved slightly forward and started to combat the hammer user Krang. Her fast movements made it easier for her to cause multiple wounds. While Scarlett made sure to keep the Scimitar user a distance away with her arrows.
They only needed to continue this up for a few more moments and then the two teams would even up the playing field. The Krang user was getting fed up and started to use his spin skill to spin away.
It was hard for Ashley to get close when this skill was being used as there was a high chance of her getting hurt. So she decided to move forward and chase Krang, waiting for his skill to end.
Finally, the skill had ended and Ashley Leapt in for the final blow, that"s when a crossbow came shooting out from the side and hit Ashley dead in the chest.
Ashley had been cautious waiting for the Bow and arrow player, she was confident in her skills at dodging any arrow that would come out at her. But this wasn"t a regular arrow, it had come from a crossbow which was faster. Something Ashley hadn"t experienced before.
This was the difference in experience between the two teams.
