You enter your apartment after a long day at work. Dropping your briefcase near the kitchen island you start to make coffee. As you watch the drip and smell the aroma of Italian dark roast you hear a giggle from your bedroom. You know that laughter. You inwardly groan. Its been two years since you last heard that sound. And you know the brat who makes it. Erin Marie Douglas, 32 years old. Socialite, flirt, and the heiress to the Douglas billions. She comes and goes without rhyme or reason. Flitting in and out of your life like a brash butterfly.

Its the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and you're at your small town's 4th of July parade. Your enjoying the sights while eating a hot dog. Then the reenactors come past all dress in Continental Army uniforms on a hot July day. Leading them is a pretty woman who is all smiles as she rides a chestnut horse. "Hey, that's the librarian," a young boy says, "that's Ms Liberty!" You watch as she starts to pass by and you see the sweat pouring down her face. Without thinking, you step forward and offer her an unopened water bottle.

You're on a dark, desert highway. A cool wind is in your hair as you walk along the burm of the road. You don't remember how you arrived here but recall abandoning your vehicle a while back. There's a warm smell in the air, but you can't seem to identify the scent. Then you see the huge hotel over the next hill. It's all lit up as if calling you towards it. You find yourself staggering down the driveway which is flanked by bushes trimmed into figures. A man holding a mug. A woman dancing. Some strange beast. Those are just some of the shrubbery. You see the hotel doors open and a woman standing there lifting up a candle.

You were hired to guard Timon the Merchant's wagontrain as it passes throught a narrow slice of Orc territory. It's you and nineteen other warriors and five lazy moving wagons. The first league into the thick forest along a winding, narrow dirt road was without incident. But as the sun began to dip towards the horizon, that changed. Gerald, the leader of the guards, toppled off his horse, a victim of a well-thrown thrown spear. Then the warband of orcs charged. You fought well slaying at least two of the orcs but were eventually outnumbered. Something struck your horse and it reared up tossing you off. You don't remember landing. You wake up bound to a thick stake and through bleary eyes notice this particular band or orcs are all female. Not a male in sight. The warband leader, you can tell by her tattoos, approaches you.

You're at the Fall Gala and as you mill about the crowd you wonder about how much money is represented on this room. Oil tycoons, crypto millionaires, businessmen and women, all parade around in finery. "Ladies and gentlemen," a man's voice cuts through the conversations, "please welcome our patron, Ms Filomena Thompson!" A huge round of polite applause happens as a beautiful, older woman descends the marble stairs. "Can you believe she's 75 years old," a woman next to you gushes to her date. Women gasp and men adjust their bow ties. Ms Thompson is grace and elegance in physical form. People line up to greet her. Then her sharp eyes fall on you.

You walk into the cafe and see Katrina at her usual table. You sigh. She looks upset and its not hard to understand why. From the first time you two met, Katrina declared you were only her friend and nothing more. You were upset it but accepted it. Now things have changed. You met Amy. Amy is the opposite of Katrina in every way. Light to Katrina's darkness. You and Amy went out on a date last night and Katrina started blowing up your phone. "Where are you?" she texted, "Tell me you're not with her. This isn't fair!" Now things have come to a head and the battleground is the same cafe where you first met Katrina.

You open your eyes and gasp. You're on a train... in Japan. You're wearing the uniform of a male high school student. You look to your left and see yourself. You're young and handsome. But that's not the most incredible part. You're inside an anime. A high school rom-com anime. And you know the girl... well, character... looking at you. Its Akane Hoshino from 'School Days Romance Mix-Up'. Then you realize your the other main character, Ken Ishimor, a 18 year old! Let the romance and comedy fly!!

You enter the club and have to elbow your way through a crowd to get near the bar. Just as you give your drink order to the bartender you hear a slap off to your right. Turning in that direction you see a well-dressed man holding a hand to his red, stinging cheek. In front of him is a furious redhead. The man turns and retreats but you hear him say, "Damn, it was just a joke." The woman sees you staring and stomps over to you.

"Bean There Done That" is a new coffee shop on the west side of the city near the university. You decided to try it out on a Saturday morning. The smell of roasted coffee beans brewing fills the air as you enter. Its busy, probably due to being a new place. The staff is cheerful and helpful and you get your coffee. Looking around there doesn't seem to be a place to sit due to the crowd. Then you spot an open table. But there is someone there. She has short black hair and tortoise shell glasses. Her nose, as they say, is buried in a book. Not a tablet or her phone, and actual book. You approach and have to clear your throat twice to get her attention.
