Soul Fusion Online

Instead of going home, Tom stayed to get things set up for the interview. He already had many things he wished to ask. Without needing a script, and since this was an interview about the player themselves, it did not need to be strict on how it was done.

Of course, this meant that Yuki also had to get prepared, but because she was going to appear on Holo Vision, Trisha and Tina whisked her off to get ready. When it was time for the interview, Yuki was pushed out wearing a low cut, purple dress and a purple face mask to match along with her hair styled up, making her very cute. Trisha matched her well with a black dress and a black mask. "Trisha, was the dress even needed?"

"Everyone must know how cute my Yuki is and how they will never ever be able to have her because she belongs to me!" Trisha said with a cheeky smile.

Yuki could only smile and let her have her way. As they arrived in the garden where the interview was going to take place, Tom's eyes fell on Yuki, and he went completely speechless. He couldn't help but be captivated by Yuki's delicate features, and how good she looked in the dress she was wearing. She looked like a whole different person when she dressed up as a girl.

"Ahem… Tom, if you stare any longer, I will need to call the police." Trisha raised an eyebrow as she caught Tom staring at her Yuki.

"Ah… sorry. I was truly stunned. She is like a whole different person." Tom replied honestly.

Trisha smiled and felt proud instead of jealous at this. She raised her nose in the air as she said: "She is my Yuki after all!"

"Okay, enough of the embarrassing talk. Let's get the interview started." Yuki just wanted to get the interview over with.

"Right, if you girls can, please sit. Although I guess that should be you saying this since it is your house after all." Tom chuckled and also took a seat. Trisha sat down and removed her mask, and Yukie rolled up next to her and also removed her mask as well.

There were two chairs and then Yuki in her wheelchair. Yuki could have hidden her disability, but she did not wish to do so. She wanted to use this chance to show that anything is possible if you put your mind to it. Behind them was a large holo vision screen with a big logo of Soul Fusion Online on it.

The cameraman gave the signal, and the interview began. "Hello to all of those who are watching. We are coming to you live from Soul Fusion Online's top player's house. Ryu and his partner Chi. Although I guess I should say her since Ryu is in fact not a man but a girl."

Tom seemed rather comfortable while speaking in front of the camera. He had stood up and was doing his best to hype up the viewers. They decided to go with a live broadcast due to the suddenness of it all. Surprisingly the broadcast stations were more than willing to allow them to cut into the normal broadcasting.

"Now then, let us get down to the interview, shall we?" Tom smiled and sat back down, and turned to Yuki. "Your name is Yuki, am I correct?"

"Mmm… Yuki Watts. I used to go by Chiasaka Yuki. But after my mother adopted me, I took on her last name." Yuki had to make it clear what her new last name was because she had registered her old last name with the company and had no way of changing it.

"And the lovely lady at your side is Princess Trisha Evergreen, am I correct?" Tom asked.

"Yes, I am Yuki's fiancee," Trisha replied proudly in a clear voice.

"Haha, you seem to love Yuki very much." Tom couldn't help but smile at these two. He felt their relationship was very pure. "Now, Yuki, what originally made you want to play Soul Fusion Online?"

"Well, it was kind of a last resort or maybe out of desperation. As I said before, I was adopted by my wonderful and loving mother, Tina Watts. But that was only when I was already eighteen. I grew up in orphanages and was, at that time, working my way through college. I lived in a cesspool for Neo addicts at the time, so rent was cheap, but as someone with no background and no ability to really get a decent paying job, I worked crappy side jobs. Sadly I was let go one day all because the owner's daughter decided to switch the schedule for a time I was unable to be there without my prior knowledge.

"I am sure you can figure out how that went. On my way home, I heard about Soul Fusion Online when I saw a newscast on an HV in a store as I walked by. I really have no idea what I was thinking. With so little money and nothing to really go on, I saw it as my last hope when I heard people could make money in SFO. I had rent to pay and needed to eat as well. Luckily I had a scholarship, or I would not have been able to enter college.

"But Soul Fusion Online changed my life. Because of this game, I was able to get myself out of poverty. I am not saying it would work for everyone, but for me, it was as if I had a guardian angel looking down at me." At the mention of guardian angel Yuki's lips curled up into a gentle smile, causing both Trisha and Tom as well as the viewers to get lost in her beautiful smile. It was a genuine smile that no one would be able to fake. "Ah, excuse me… You see, I lost a dear friend of mine during that time. A lot of my determination to get to where I am now is because of her. The rest would be because of Trisha and my mother and their futures if anything were to happen to me. I mean, I have already been shot in the head once."

Yuki wanted people to know her, the real her. The reason she is the way she is and why people should never give up on their dreams. Dreams were something that was meant to be followed. And as long as you continue working hard through all the hardships and struggles, never losing sight of your goal you can eventually make it. You can eventually reach your goal.
