    Yup yup. i think this is the longest chapter yet, but I don't like it that much =/ Oh well, you decide how it is :P
    Oh yes, and Raye Penbar's initials got me thinking... which explains what I did to him in this story xD

    Ban Note - Chapter 4
    The dark realm of the Spammigami had its usual atmosphere; void of life and filled with nothing but dead threads. Voices of the Spammigami echoed all around, gossiping about the latest news.
    “Has anyone seen Remmis around lately?”
    “Perhaps she was serious about dropping her B& Note.”
    “She probably couldn’t get to it before some other member picked it up.”
    “No way! If that was the case, then she’d be forced to follow them until they’re banned…”
    “Yeah, that doesn’t sound like Remmis at all.”
    “But wait a sec; I heard she’s got two B& Notes.”
    “Who knows, I’ll never understand the girl.”

    “So, in order for me to get the eyes of a Spammigami and obtain some 1337 haxor skillz, I’ll have to give you half of my rep points.” Vivi observed.
    “Yes,” Remmis answered. “So what do you say? Do we have a deal?”
    “Remmis… this deal of yours is…”
    Remmis’ amber gaze burned into Vivi’s.
    “Out of the question.”
    Remmis softened her expression in surprise. “Huh? How come?”
    “Let’s get one thing straight,” Vivi explained “I’m going to become an admin someday and rid this forum of phailure, and in order to do that I need to be as popular as I can. Every admin has high rep, except for Xaldin, but he’s a piece of ****. I need to have as much rep as possible, giving it up is unacceptable. I figured even you would have known that much.”
    “Yeah, but I thought I should let you know that the deal exists. Better I tell you this stuff early on so I don’t have to deal with your *****ing later.”
    “This is what you call telling me early on?” Vivi scolded “If you wanted to tell me early on you should’ve said so when me met, or better yet, just include it in the instructions for the B& Note.”
    “Erm… good point.” Remmis said, as a loss for words. He doesn’t seem the slightest bit daunted by the fact that I’m a Spammigami, She thought. He doesn’t suck up to me, and he doesn’t seem to have any trouble giving me a hard time!
    “Any other important details you’d like to tell me… Spammigami?” There was a touch of sarcasm in Vivi’s voice.
    “No… that’s all.”
    “Oh,” Vivi said “That’s a shame.” He let himself fall on his bed, his hands placed idly behind his head. “You know, Remmis, I would have honestly considered the deal if you had granted me your wings instead of eyes. Just the idea of flying freely through the forum sounds very 1337.”
    “You’d stand out if you sprouted wings and started flying…”
    “I’m only kidding,” Vivi assured. “Anyways, if I keep bargaining for wings and eyes, before you know it, I’ll be a real Spammigami.”
    “I wouldn’t worry too much about that, Vivi.” Said Remmis “Even without the eyes, you’re already a worthy Spammigami.” She paused, her expression growing dimmer. “Right now, the world of the Spammigami is slowly rotting. We live a vague and meaningless existence, only banning KHV members because we’re afraid of fading from the site ourselves. We no longer know why we exist. In fact… I doubt we have any meaning at all. Compared to them, Vivi, you’re more of a Spam god then they’ll ever be.”
    “Well, it sounds like I’m doing a lot more work than them... but…” he paused; “I don’t want to be compared to a Spammigami. I’m a regular KHV member trying to use the B& note for the betterment of this forum… But I wouldn’t say the world of the Spammigami is meaningless.”
    “Huh? What do you mean?”
    “Well, think about it. Once a Spammigami like you comes down once every hundred… no, more like every thousand posts, KHV is changed dramatically.” He encouraged “The existence of the Spammigami is extremely significant. If your realm is really rotting as you say it is, then why don’t you use some of what you learn down here when you return?”
    “Well, Vivi…” Remmis said “I never noticed this before, but you’re quite the positive thinker.”
    “Of course,” He agreed “You have to be a positive thinker to even consider using something like the B& Note for things other than your own personal gain.” Vivi began to flip open the pages, realization suddenly crept over him. “That’s it!”
    “What’s up?” Remmis asked.
    “Time for the real deal.”
    “Real deal?”
    “Stop repeating every last thing I say to you in a sentence.”
    “Everything you say to me in a sentence-“
    “SHUT UP, REMMIS. YOU ARE SO ****ING ANNOYING.”
    “Yes Vivi.” She timidly sat back down, cowering.
    “I’ve finally figured how to use the B& Note to my advantage and get the name of the guy who’s been stalking me.” Vivi beamed.
    “What exactly are you planning?” Remmis asked.
    “I’m going to use the rules of the B& Note.” He stated “I’m going to test just how freely I can specify the details of banning.”
    ***​
    “Xaldin,” Ghetto addressed “You’ve received a PM from several other mods on the case. Apparently something about 3 of the 6 n00bs that were killed yesterday displaying odd characteristics before they were banned?”
    “What do you mean?” Xaldin asked “They weren’t just banned for the usual reason?”
    “No, they were all banned for spamming in the spamzone, but directly before it happened, one of them posted a thread with a blank topic, and just posted a still picture of a pentagram. Another left an unexplained post. The third managed to escape the site and ran all the way to another site before he was banned.”

    “What is it, Lead?” Madi asked as a window appeared on her side of the laptop.
    “3 new banned victims who acted slightly different before their deaths. “
    “Different?”
    “I’m sending you the images of the text and pictures they left now.”
    Madi read the post on the screen.

    Madi sur is a ***. I mean,
    Doez she even exist?
    U can’t help but wundr. I sorta wana
    Kno if she haz awesome skillz. Ttly.


    It sounds like this person is a total n00b who questions my existence… and my orientation. She looked confused, and a bit disturbed. It could conceivably be merely the actions of a n00b, but… if Shika can control the time of banning… perhaps he can control the moments leading up to the ban as well? In which case…
    “Xaldin,” Madi addressed “Regarding the most recent victims, I’d like to request that the details of their ban are not released. As far as anyone is concerned, they just got banned for spamming in the spamzone. It’s possible that Shika might be using these n00bs to conduct some sort of test, and if that’s the case we shouldn’t be giving them any easy answers.”
    “U-Understood.” Xaldin agreed.
    “Performing tests on n00bs?” Hissora asked
    “…Dark.” K A I R I added.
    “He’s playing games with people’s lives on this site…” Xaldin said, his rage building.

    If Shika is really using n00bs as experiments… Madi thought, what is he hoping to achieve?
    ***​
    “Take a look at this, Remmis…” Vivi beckoned “The results of yesterday’s six tests have already been uploaded onto Xaldin’s PC. The B& Note is even more useful than I thought!”
    “Whad’ya mean?” Remmis asked.
    “Having escaped from the site, one of them ran to another dying message board that I had specified, and was banned by the admin of that site. Another one posted the exact thread I specified. And the last one made the exact same post that I requested in the notebook. Those 3 did exactly what I wanted them to. For the remaining 3, I purposely wrote impossible circumstances.” He explained “For one, I wrote that one of them would suddenly gain the status of a regular S. mod. However, everyone knows you can’t just suddenly get such a high position, especially when you’re at the stats of a n00b. As a result, they were simply banned for the usual reason.”
    “For the next one, I made him draw an exact picture of Madi’s face in the wall. This also didn’t happen; you can’t draw someone you’ve never seen before. As a result, this person was also banned for spamming in the spamzone.” Vivi grinned “Lastly, I wrote for someone to write a note stating ‘I know that Madi is suspicious of the staff.’ I thought that this one might work, but it didn’t. In other words, if someone doesn’t know a piece of information, obviously they can’t think of it, and so it’d be too unnatural for a person to write it down, meaning they won’t be able to do so. Even the B& Note cannot accomplish the impossible. But, as long as it’s within the realistic limits of what they can do, I can control them as much as I’d like before they’re banned.”
    “I’ve got that much,” Remmis assured “But what’s all this leading up to?”
    “Madi and the staff will never be able to realize my true objectives. Madi will be too busy investigating the mystery of those pictures and messages. Especially that note… that absolutely meaningless dying message…”
    ***​
    If Shika is using n00bs for experimentation… it must be cause they’re about to start something else. If they make a move now, it’s possible that their actions may be picked up by the people I’ve called in… Madi sat in silence, lost in her thoughts. But if there’s another reason they’re doing this, other than to run tests… there could be a message in the pictures and text. Realization crept over Madi. Is this it? She looked closer at the note, reading the first word of every line.
    Madi, doez u kno…

    “Alright,” Said Vivi. “Let’s get down to buisness.”
    “Hm? What’s up?”
    “A couple of days ago, this n00b named Ducky spammed the site with constant threads. They were all pointless topics, not making much sense at all. He got a few warnings and escaped without being banned. I’ll use him.” Vivi pulled out a cell phone and began to dial a number, still talking with Remmis as he did so. “It’s slightly last minute, but I’m sure it won’t be much of a problem. I’ll try asking a few people.”
    “’A few people?’”
    “What did I tell you about that repeating the last line problem you have?” Vivi scolded her “Anyways… You’ll soon find out I’m a pretty popular guy, Remmis.”
    ***
    The sun in the downtown part of the Spamzone’s streets shone brighter than ever on the quiet, but bustling board. Vivi walked through the brisk air, Remmis following behind him as usual. Vivi looked behind him, only to see the guy who had been tailing him for the past couple of days. Good, he’s still following me. He thought, this whole thing would be pointless if he wasn’t tailing me. Vivi looked ahead of himself to see a quiet bus top with a young woman standing in front of it. He smiled as he made out the figure of Catch the Rain, otherwise known as CtR. She waved to him and called out his name as he casually walked towards her.
    “A date, huh?” Remmis said, giggling softly.
    “Yeah,” Vivi replied. “No matter how you look at it, it’s just a normal date. Even the guy who’s following me can see that.”
    “But it isn’t just a date, is it?” Remmis grinned, her amber gaze fixed on Vivi. “You mentioned something about figuring out a way to find out your stalker’s name. What the hell are you planning?”
    “Huh? Didn’t you see what I wrote in the B& Note? I explained it in great detail…”
    “Doing that would take all the fun out of it.”
    “In that case,” Vivi said as he got closer and closer to CtR, “Just sit back and watch.”
    “Sorry…” Vivi spoke softly to CtR “Did I keep you waiting?”
    “No, not at all!” CtR said, running towards Vivi “Anyways, I haven’t been to Movies and Media section since I joined this place!” she pulled him in for a hug “And the best part is, I have you all to myself!” Vivi blushed slightly and turned away from CtR.

    On the weekdays, he goes to staff school and cram school at night. If it’s a weekend, he goes out on a date. Vivi’s Dark Side, member #20 – no need for suspicion. At any rate, I’ll be finished with my surveillance today.

    “But Vivi, didn’t you say that you weren’t going to do anything special until your staff exams were over?”
    “Yeah, well, screw my priorities.”
    “Eee! Vivi, your lack of interest is so hot!”
    Vivi started at CtR, not saying anything. He looked out the window, and waited. The bus continued to glide down the road smoothly, couples scattered across it and enjoying themselves. Today, KHV had a wonderful mood to it, one different than usual. Vivi could sense the man who was following him sitting directly behind him on the bus. Everything was going perfectly. Suddenly, the bus came to a halt. Another forum member walked onto the bus, an ominous glare in his eyes.
    He’s here! Vivi thought, beaming. Seven passengers excluding him, no one’s in the way… everything should go smoothly.
    Suddenly, Vivi saw a large golden item form in the member’s hands. A large hammer—the word ‘B&’ written clearly on it. He raised it high above his head, threatening the other passengers.
    “574y 1n y0ur 53475 0r y0u'r3 4|| b4nn3d!” he shouted.
    Not everyone on the bus spoke fluent 1337, but most of them knew what he was saying just by the look on his face and the fire in his eyes. He raised the BanHammer and threatened the bus driver.
    A hijacking? Vivi’s stalker thought. At a time like this?!
    “K33p 17 d0wn!” The hijacker shouted “1'|| b4n 4ny0n3 wh0 7r135 70 m0v3!” He turned to the driver. “H3y, dr1v3r. Y0u kn0w 7h3 numb3r 70 7h3 M0v135 4nd M3d14 53c710n. C4|| 3m!”
    “Um… sure…” She picked up the phone “This is 2Foxxie4U… Yes, I quit being a news anchor. What? Driving busses around for no particular reason seemed funner at the time! Dammit, stop questioning my choices! I’m on bus 124, and I’ve been hijacked. No, I’m not fighting back; the guy’s got a BanHammer!”
    “61v3 17 h3r3!” The hijacker said, grabbing the phone. “Y0u h34rd wh475 601n6 0n, n0w |1573n up! 1 w4n7 4 53c710n4| m0d 1n 4 c4r 70 br1n6 m3 4|| 0f 7h3 r3p p01n75 7h3y 34rn3d y3573rd4y. M4k3 17 2 bu5 570p5 4w4y fr0m 7h3 M0v135 4nd M3d14 53c710n, 1f y0u 7ry 4ny7h1n6 funny, 1'|| b4n 3v3ry0n3 h3r3!” he threw the phone on the ground and crushed it with his foot.
    CtR stood next to Vivi, her eyes closed and her hands clasped. She whimpered in fear at the situation as Vivi held a note in front of her, making sure to go unnoticed by the hijacker.
    Kay, don’t be scared. As soon as he turns around, I’m going to grab the gun from his hands.
    The man who had been following Vivi suddenly spoe to him for the first time.
    “lol… that’s risky. U shundt do it cause if he rly doez turn aroudn I can taek it frum him.
    Ooc: I lik naruto”
    Vivi quickly ignored the horrible accent of the person speaking to him and began to write yet another note.
    “ur stupid. I meen its not lik he can here us over the enginez.” The man said.
    Vivi crushed the note without speaking and put it in his pocket.
    “And how can we be sure you’re not an accomplice?” Vivi accused.
    “A-An accomplice?” CtR asked
    “Yes, I’ve read about this before. The first guy goes on the bus and hijacks it, while a second one gets on at a different stop, sits in the very back of the bus and pretends to be a hostage, so in case anything bad happens, he can take over the situation.” Vivi explained. He looked at CtR, who had a terrified expression on her face. “What’s the matter?”
    “You… you really think he’s one of them?” She asked
    The stalker tensed; I don’t have a choice… he thought. There’s no way Vivi is Shika. If he was, then he’d just ban this guy right now.
    “hear’s sum proff. Itz mein.
    Ooc: I stol it frm my frend :) lol” He said.
    Vivi looked down to see a badly-made, but still real ID. It read ‘departmentz of investimagashen: OFFICIAL ROLE-PLAY REGULAR”
    So that’s who Madi’s been using to investigate the staff! Vivi observed. His name’s… FinalForm.
    A grin slowly crept on to Vivi’s face.
    “I trust you,” Vivi assured, “And for the time being I won’t bother asking what a Role-Player is doing outside of that dump you call a section.”
    Vivi watched at the hijacker taunted the scared passengers, waving the BanHammer around like it was some sort of toy. It’s alright, he’s not gonna do anything to us. Suddenly, Vivi reached into his pocket, making sure the note he had written before to Finalform ‘accidentally' fell out of his pocket. He reached over to pick it up, only to be noticed by the hijacker.
    “H0|d 17 r16h7 7h3r3, y0u |177|3 punk!” He screamed and walked over towards Vivi; who froze immediately. “Y0u 5m4r7455!” The hijacker said, picking up the note. Realizing it actually had nothing other than the bustop number and destination written on it, he threw it on the ground. He turned around, disappointed that it wasn’t any good, and walked towards the front of the bus.
    Got you. Vivi smiled.
    The hijacker turned around once, his eyes widening as he backed up and trembled in fear. He began screaming in an entirely different tone. The hate and spite that he once harbored now turned into horror and fear for his life as he gazed apon the tall, dark, horrifying creature standing hunched over in front of him.
    “W-Wh0 7h3 h3|| 4r3 y0u?!” he screamed in terror.
    Remmis, who was ‘watching the show’ like Vivi instructed her to, quickly became aware of what was going on and started to talk to the hijacker. “Hmmm? You mean you can actually see me?”
    “D0n'7 m355 w17h m3!!” The hijacker screamed. “D0n'7 m0v3! 1'|| b4n y0u, y0u fr34k!”
    “lol funneh, he’s ttly hallucinating.” Finalform said. “HAY GUISE DUCK UR HEDZ! THIS IS GONNA GET PRETTI ACTIONY~”
    Everyone in the bus immediately got down. Vivi put his arm over CtR and held on to her as the craziness continued.
    “Oh, I get it now.” Remmis observed “That note that supposedly had nothing important on it was actually a page of the B& Note that Vivi had ripped out… and since you’ve touched it, you can see me. That’s so clever!” She said, walking closer and closer towards the hijacker, making him back up in fear. He began swinging the ban hammer furiously as Remmis, but it just went through her transparent body.
    “Sorry pal, I’m a Spammigami. You can’t ban me.” She taunted “Vivi sure thought this out… though I guess I shouldn’t have expected any less from the top student in the country. He even used this incident as a way to get the name of the guy who’s been stalking him… gotta give him credit!”
    FinalForm got out of his seat in attempt to chase the hijacker, but this was no longer needed. The hijacker immediately clutched Foxxie by the shoulders and ordered her to let him get off the bus; she came to a stop as he ran off in fear, but did not notice the busy traffic of KH-vids he was bounding towards. The hijacker ran directly into the streets. There was an ear-piercing screech as everyone on the bus closed their eyes, which was quickly followed by the sickening splatter of the impact.
    Vivi watched as the hijacker vanished from the site forever, the only thing being his BanHammer, left behind. Vivi couldn’t help but smile as he watched the man fade.
    Ducky – Unintentional Deletion
    Boards the 11:31 AM bus, bound for Movies & Media with a BanHammer and attempts to hijack it. Sees a horrific phantom and flees from the bus in fear. Jumps of the bus at 11:45 and is forever deleted from the site.
    The B& Note never fails…
    Vivi smiled. You will be next… FinalForm!

    No you're not! You can write AND draw, that's what a comic artist needs if working alone. You're way better off than me, I have no creativity - it's always fanart of other's creations, never my own.

    Haha, you're perfectly creative! Your one of the best damn artists on this site, and even if it is fanart, you always manage to make it your own :P Plus, inspiration doesn't always just flood into your mind-- you gotta have other creations motivating you to do something yourself =D
