Dinnae even worry aboot it, Ah dinnae ken o' ony LMB stories that continued oan a regular, well paced schedule
Sprocket007 headed to one of his homes and started gathering things he would need for his journey. “Wait wait wait,” he thought to himself, “I’m going to try to save some junky sight because a dude in a sombrero said I should?” Ever since he lost his best friend in JA-17 (Just Action #17 this is a fictional game and any resemblance to any game, running or retired is completely coincidental) server that had a virus in it he had been entirely less confident and adventuress. It’s been said a lot of people died in hey-wire games that year. He sometimes wondered if it was a “coincidence” like the creators of those games said it was. He would probably always be suspicious of those “accidents.” But deep inside he knew this was the right thing to do. Anyway he had nothing else to do except world build. And this sounded interesting. So he kept packing and listened to that small voice instead of all the shouting ones. An hour later he set out on his journey through sights and forums he'd never heard of. As he walked down the street he grew more and more bored and thought seriously about going home. “This whole thing is weird,” he thought to himself, “I should just turn around and go home right now!” But he never did. This is one part of a hero; pushing through, no matter how scared or tired or bored you get. He walked on and after awhile the faces and sights and the smells got more and more unfamiliar. He slept in hotels and walked and rode “mother board” buses (Which are a lot different than ours) for days until one day something peculiar happened.
What happens next? find out in Part Three which is coming soon!
Part three; A helping hand
A man walked up to Sprocket007 and said, “Hey, kid, are you Sprocket007?” " Um, yeah…” he replied wearily. “I’m benboy755,” He said offering a smile, “Con told me about you.” “Who,” Sprocket asked, confused. “Um, never mind,” He said as he scanned the crowd around them, “So, where are you trying to get?” “Here,” He said showing him the address. “You still got a long way to go,” He said, glancing at the address. Sprocket slumped over, every bit of his few days travel draining the energy out of him. He then noticed they were edging towards a café. “Uh, where are we going,” Sprocket asked, getting nervous. “A café,” Replied benboy, watching someone in the crowd. “I know that much,” He said, irritated. He then got pulled inside the café and taken to the back by benboy. “Look,” He said to Sprocket, “You’re in a lot of danger.” Danger? He thought to himself. “Take this Backpack. You need to find someone I know. Her online name is Phantom. You should be able to find her in a JA game.” His stomach lurched at the mention of that game. “And most importantly, do not tell anybody but her you are on this journey. Don’t stop to talk to people and if they ask you what you’re doing you can truthfully say that you’re going to a JA game. Tell her I sent you. Got all that?” “I think so,” He replied. “Repeat the important stuff,” He said, then waited for him to do so. “Okay, One find Phantom in a,” He hesitated, “a JA game. Two don’t tell anybody about my journey and three if I have to talk to someone I can tell them truthfully that I’m going to a JA game. I also should tell her you sent me.” He smiled proudly at completing the list. “Good job,” Rewarded benboy, ignoring the hesitation, “Now, go down this alley and it will bring you out a good bit away from here. It should then be about a two days walk or a one day bus ride to get to the JA platform. Good luck.” And so with him watching Sprocket set out on the second part of his journey. On to the thing he was most scared of. And that fear didn’t disappear now. A second part of a Hero is this; being brave even when you’re scared. How can someone be brave without being scared?
Part Four (Already?!) coming soon!

Part Four; The Just Action Phantom
Btw, I apologize for the change in the way this story is laid out. I changed it because it’s an over-all better layout. Thank you for understanding.
I approached the huge three story building for JA. The bottom floor would be registering and logging in. The second floor would be where you could inter the games and the third floor was where you could shop for merchandise. I approached the building timidly, and slipped inside. I walked up to a desk, and the program looked up from its tablet. “Hi,” I said to it, “I need to log in.” ‘Alright,” it responded, “Password, and username?” “JacksonMissassipy123&4, and Sprocket007,” I responded, shifting nervously. It sat for a second then said, “Verified. Welcome back Sprocket007. To proceed go to the second floor, select the version, and game you would like to play, and enter. You can select a certain server on the pad next to the door or simply enter, and play in a random server. If you have any problems, or questions simply say ‘server help’ and someone will assist you momentarily. Any questions?” “No, thanks,” I responded, then walked to the portal door to the second floor. I walked from door to door looking in the servers for Phantom and finally found her in the third game. I looked into the black void in the doorway. I took a deep breath and walked into the darkness. A second later I was in the server. I was wearing tactical clothes and gear and was holding my sniper rifle. I looked around and realized that I was in the Moscow base. Alright, I thought to myself, let’s find her and get out. Despite what I wanted I ended up playing the game some before I found her. I was in a firefight between my side and the Reds, and we were taking cover in a bluff when I looked over and saw the name-tag over a brown haired woman, and I realized this is the one I was looking for. “Hey! You’re Phantom,” I said to her. She gave me a scrutinizing look and nodded. “I’m Sprocket007,” I said to her as she popped up shot someone and dropped again. “Pleasure,” She said extending her hand for a shake, “How’d you know me?” “Oh right,” I exclaimed, “Benboy sent me. I’m trying to revive some site called, um, The Brick Boards Eternal.” When I mentioned benboy I had her attention and when I told her about the site she gave a sort of wistful smile. “I’ll help you in any way I can. And you said beboy,” She asked, “It’s been forever.” She said the last sentence with a smile to herself. “So I’ll see you after the game?” I asked. “No, you won’t,” She responded, giving me a heart attack, “I’ll meet you in the hallway outside as soon as we can get out.” I nodded and pulled out my tablet and clicked ‘leave game’ and was in the hallway waiting for her to join me, hoping she didn't dessert me. Another part of a Hero is this; holding on to hope no matter how hard it is. Hope can save lives.
Part Five might be delayed, but is still awesome and coming!
