a party. a wild party that everyone was invited to. and i was on the outside of it. outside, lost, not nessecarially uninvited - like i said, everyone was invited.

everyone. including one of my nemeses.

slowly, i walked in. everyone was having a jolly good time, drinking and dancing. i was sure i could smell a touch of ecstasy. maybe heroin. it was sickening. as soon as i walked in, i just as quickly wanted to talk out.

but no. instead, i hid out, running upstairs into one of the elevators. (this was a tall building) i knew my nemesis was around... we could sense each other. she was probably as eager to avoid me as i was to avoid her. but alas, that wasn't how the game worked.

i stopped at the 6th floor and got my bastard sword. i opened the elevator door and standing in front of me was... me. well, not exactly me.

it's an extremely long story.

it was very awkward at first meeting marina - supposedly, a parallel universe version of myself. when you come from a parallel universe there tend to be a few opposites - namely, she's ridiculously evil. i still wonder if there's any way to turn her good, but for now that's not important. what is important is that i won this battle, or i would die under the hands of her.

marina got out her bullshit sword about the same time as i did, and the two clashed, the sound of it ringing through our ears. marina only smiled as she faced me, and i smiled too. while we were enemies, there was a sense of fun in our battles.
