Light shone on my eyes...

I could feel the brightness of the glowing florescent lamb on the ceiling through the transparent gla.s.s of the headgear set.

A voice called for me from the side.

"Rise and shine princess! Fatty brought some Pizza and Cola... also I want my d.a.m.n turn." Four-Eyes was standing on the door of the room crossing his arms.

"Four-Eyes! Help your daddy up." I said as I extended my hand to be pulled again from the chair.

Four-Eyes helped me up but I froze for a second. For some reason I felt rather strange, both my reach and mt height are a bit shorter than what they are supposed to be.

"Will you keep holding my hand, you pervert?"

"... No, you are not my type." I let go of Four-Eyes' hand and tried to ascertain my height again but it all felt rather familiar. I guess it should be my imagination since I just came out of the game.

I walked out of the room and there were some boxes on the dining table stacked on each other...

"My extra cheese, where is it?"

"That one!" Fatty replied.

Yes! Finally... oh! The smell, it's lethal.

I took a slice and bit on it. The flavor invaded my taste buds and made everything feel so magical. It felt like years since I ate this great pizza and felt like a torture. I was having the best foodgasm I had for sixteen years.

"... Sixteen years?" Why did I just think of that?

"Hey, come check that out!" Fatty called.

I followed his line of sight and he was pointing to the advertis.e.m.e.nt on the TV, it was a new pizza restaurant in the city.

"That's nearby!" He said.

What a grand coincidence! Still...

"I think I am all beaten up, I need to be at work tomorrow." I said while trying to enjoy the pizza with as less bad thoughts as possible.

"Tomorrow is Friday, genius!"

"Oh! It is working out well, huh! Still, I guess I want to laze around and game all day."

I am a simple man, it's Friday, I stay in bed.

"Look at that advertis.e.m.e.nt!" Fatty said and I looked at the TV. A gaming advertis.e.m.e.nt?

That's unusual!

I am not really interested in any of that anyway. As long as it is not Skyrim, then it's not worth my time.

I sat on the sofa beside Fatty and started immersing myself in the glorious pizza.

My eyes moved to what Fatty was looking at and he was holding his phone while grinning. I looked at the screen and I saw... Sigh!

"Loli Asian cosplayers?! Just give up, man."

"Fufu! A man must pursue his dreams for life." Fatty said.

"Perv!" I wasn't sure how his head works and I don't want to know.

Let's just focus on this magical pizza!

The most annoying and rude thing in the world is to interrupt someone who is eating such a pizza. I was about to reach the climax with this slice but...

*ring* *ring*

... my food starred ringing!

Should I just curse whoever rang on me?

Let's see... an unknown number... I have a phobia of unknown numbers.

But still...

*click*

"Who's it?"

{h.e.l.lo, sir. I am Siv from the Dare Dragon Group for entertainment. We would like to congratulate you on winning on our yearly selection... we would like to acquire some of your personal information... *click*}

I just hanged up!

"Scammers!"

My mood was ruined by this call. Now I need to calm down.

I kept holding my phone and started looking around. I tapped on the 'Instagram' icon and got ready to enjoy some natural sceneries.

"Fufu! This is what people should see, not like you, Lolicon perv!"

On my phone, a lot of beautiful pics were being viewed.

"Humph! A lolicon and a kittycon!" Four-Eyes came from behind and looked at our screens then snorted in disdain.

"Hey, Four-Eyes! You are still seeing that girl from the morgue?" I asked.

"Holy c.r.a.p! Four-Eyes is dating a morgue lady?" Fatty exclaimed.

"A corpse, man!"

Fatty and I laughed hard at this one.

"Humph! You two are imbeciles. You dare mock me while you two are singles to the bone."

"Tch! What's with this guy and bones?" Fatty clicked his tongue.

"And who said I am single? I, your old daddy, have not one but two beautiful ladies."

This guy dared to dare me? Still too early for him. He would lose his s.h.i.t if he saw the charm of Alina and Jull.

"Humph! All barks but no bites!" Four-Eyes snorted in disdain and sat to watch the TV.

Still, Alina and Jull?

I feel like...

"Hey, when was the last time you had a date?" Fatty didn't let go of Four-Eyes and took the responsibility of cornering the insolent fellow.

The topic switched to dating and an argument erupted.

I noticed something on the TV display and turned up the volume.

"What is that?" Four-Eyes wondered.

"Is that... a dating advertis.e.m.e.nt?" Fatty knitted his brows.

"Strange! Something like that is being aired on an Egyptian TV channel? That's a bit too bold, isn't it?"

It was strange to see a thing like that.

Suddenly, the screen turned blue...

"The broadcast is down?"

"Maybe!"

"Just turn off the d.a.m.n thing and let's head down to the cafe." I stood up from the sofa and put the pizza in the fridge.

"See you later, dear." I closed the fridge and parted with the most wonderful pizza in the world.

Meanwhile, everyone went to his room and started changing. I who finished dressing and started making my hair noticed something in my brush.

I pulled it out and looked closely at it...

"A red hair?"

How did this come here?

I walked out of the room holding the red hair in my hand...

"That is... a red hair?" Four-Eyes held his gla.s.ses to ascertain from what he saw.

"No no no no no! Don't tell me... you are really dating?" Fatty was shocked.

"No, neither Alina nor Jull should... have..."

What am I saying?

What am I thinking about?

"Hey, it's just a red hair! No biggie. Let's go." Four-Eyes said and walked out.

Fatty seemed to have agreed with him and followed. I followed too.

"Sigh! The h.e.l.l elevator!"

The most hateful thing about this world. We just crammed ourselves in and pressed on 'G'.

*Elevator Music*

As we finally walked out if the elevator, I looked around for a bit.

"Where is that cat?"

"It probably got chased away again." Four-Eyes said.

"Yeah, the smell!" Fatty replied.

"Tch! Insolent human beings."

"Here he goes again." They looked at each other and sighed.

"I mean, there is a Butcher shop right next to the entrance. Can't they just leave the cat alone?"

"Life can't be perfect, man. Let's go." I was pushed outside the building's entrance and walked in the street.

It was around 8 PM and the street was full of people. In the summer, Alexandria never sleeps.

We headed directly to the cafe and took our usual seats on the pavement. I ordered coffee and sat to enjoy the place.

"So, tomorrow is Friday... any plans, gentlemen?" Fatty asked.

Friday, huh? I would always go hunt with Nefert.i.ti on Fridays.

"I think we should go to the cinema. A new movie that made some high ratings will be viewed from tomorrow till the next week?"

"Where?"

"San Stefano Cinema!"

"Man, this place is too fancy. And we can't go there like this, we need a date each."

"How miserable!"

"What else?"

"The pizza shop! It's nearby in Camp Chezar."

"I don't want to go!"

"Why? There is some new coffee shop there too."

"Camp Chezar is expensive and if it is about coffee then Faruq's Caffee Shop is the best place and a historical site at that." I said.

"Guess you are right."

"We can just go and hang around the Citadel of Qaitbay and eat ice cream while hara.s.sing couples." I said.

They laughed but Fatty shook his head.

"No, man! I don't think we can go there anymore."

"Why?"

"Don't you know? The gov has taken over the area to make a new project."

"A new project?"

"Yep, some wealthy investor from some wealthy part of the world came and gave the gov some money so he can take over all the places around the citadel."

"Come on! You can't be serious. Every good beach was given to investors. The Citadel now?" I was really annoyed by the fact.

"Well, you know their motto, 'Long live Egypt, but give us all your money'."

Well, it sucks!

"Just like that dumba.s.s Korir!"

If I remember... it was... like...

Why do I keep forgetting what I was trying to think about?

"OVER HERE!" I heard a voice and looked towards it.

A strange grey skinned woman... no, a very familiar grey skinned woman was making some glow out of her hand and following it.

Behind her was another large woman.

As they walked, they seemed to not be noticed or even hindered by the crowd.

"I can't see him!" The large woman was looking around.

"He is close! So close!" The grey skinned woman was looking at the glow in her hand and clenching on her teeth.

I absentmindedly stood up and walked to them. I felt a lot of familiarity from that grey skinned woman. She is so familiar as if we are connected to each other. So I just walked to her.

I wasn't sure how but the people around increased so much. It felt like I am in a flowing stream of people. I pushed forward but the people kept walking opposite to me.

The grey skinned woman was also not focused on me.

"I.. am.. here!" I tried to call.

"Here!" I called again.

She turned around and was looking for something on the other direction.

Dammit! What should I...

I pushed with all my power and reached forward...

"NURINA!"

I called her name.

She turned around and looked at me. Her eyes were opened wide when she saw me and reached her hand out to me.

Just as our hands touched each other...

"Huh?"

... everything became black!

It wasn't just black. I looked at my body and could see myself clearly.

More to that! I remember now!

I know who I am...

Still, there is a problem! My other half is missing...

The h.e.l.l!

"So you noticed!" A voice spoke.

I turned around and so nothing.

"Wh, Who's there?"

I didn't recognize the speaker.

"You really aren't that brave, huh?" The voice said.

My heart was beating so fast... I was nervous.

I felt a change is s.p.a.ce around me and looked at the direction the change came from.

I saw two more people here...

One of them was a red haired child that was holding his head from pain.

The other one was a huge young man with a very familiar face but his colors seemed a bit in a negative effect.

"Truth be told, I was focusing on the main host soul, not the medium. But who would have thought that the main host soul only had this little control! Truly wonderful. I think I picked wisely this time." The huge negative colored man spoke to himself. His voice was the one that spoke to me a little while ago.

What the h.e.l.l is going on here?
