Gazing through the car door window at the Los Angeles skyline, Marcy’s lips curled into a bright smile. She was filled with glee; being able to have fun again was not something she expected to happen. Her thoughts changed from happiness to fear. She began to worry about when the effects of the drink would wear off once again and transform her back into Mark.

“Earth to Marcy! Hello!” Marcy’s mind returned to reality when she heard the voice of her friend and neighbor: Lisa. Lisa, the same person who created the drink, chuckled with a smile before continuing, “Thought you were lobotomized for a sec.” Marcy giggled is response moving her jet black hair out of her vision,

“Sorry. It’s just wild. Being out.” Lisa cocked one eyebrow which Marcy noticed so she quickly backed it up, “I-In the city! I live in farm country so being in LA is just crazy.” Successfully lying to her friend. Lisa nodded as she continued to drive through the city at dusk,

“I know the feeling. I’m from Oregon. I used to just visit here for business and on my first visit, I was blown away. Thanks to a few raises I got the money to move here. Woop woop! What about you, girl? You thinking about moving here?” The question made Marcy freeze and become distant,

“Umm…I don’t know…”
Soon the duo parked in front of a bowling alley. After taking a quick glance at the neon sign for the alley, Marcy grinned then looked to Lisa,

“Bowling, eh? This should be fun. Haven’t played in ages!” Lisa got out of the car almost in sync with Marcy,

“Then I’ll try not to beat you too hard.” The two walked together towards the door, Marcy gave a harmless nudge whilst chuckling,

“Cocky.” Lisa stuck her tongue at her friend before opening the door for her,

“Ladies first.” Marcy playfully curtsied then stepped inside, Lisa following with her own bright smile. As the two moved through the alley, Marcy couldn’t help but noticed a group of teenagers all watching her Let’s Play episodes of Grim Fandango Remastered upon their smartphones; they were laughing, smiling, and some were audibly commenting,

“Wow, Marciplier’s so funny and cute!” That compliment made the girl blush slightly. The next comment came from a girl,

“She’s so likable! I hope she becomes a permanent thing on the channel. Her and Mark can make a great team!” Marcy had stopped in her tracks to hear and what she did hear made her grin grow wider with joy. Lisa turned back to see her friend watching the teens,

“Man, I think I found my new crush. She’s just as awesome as Markiplier!” Marcy lowered her head and blushed a bit more and this made Lisa walk over and gently nudge her,

“You seem to have fans. That’s awesome, girl. Maybe you should stay in LA a bit more. It’d be great for both fans and your friend.” Marcy thought about it for a bit then looked to Lisa with a smile,

“I…I think I might.” Lisa wrapped her arm around Marcy’s shoulders then guided her down the alley again,

“Come on, Ms. YouTuber. Let’s have some fun.”

“Already am.” The two chuckled as they reached the register,

“Can we get a lane? I’m a size eight and my friend is…” Lisa questioned the employee and Marcy finished,
“I’m an eight too.” Upon getting their bowling shoes, the employee politely said,

“For a couple of beauties like you, I’ll give you Lane 66.” Down the lane, away from the obnoxious and loud bowlers that were present, a lane lit up and pins were placed. Marcy smiled then squealed in delight,

“Woo! Thanks a ton! Seriously!” Marcy showed her gratitude then ran right for the lane which made Lisa chuckle as she followed.
The two girls bowled for a bit whilst chatting with each other. Marcy mostly stayed away from talking about herself and kept the focus on Lisa. On the fifth frame, Lisa was sitting on a chair as Marcy got up to bowl with her yellow bowling ball, they continued their conversation,

“I’ve always loved sodas, energy drinks, and juices. Trying the different tastes and learning how to make them. I learned how to make my own Dr. Pepper with ease.” Marcy rolled her ball and upon collision with the pins, they all got knocked over which made Marcy hop up and down whilst cheering. She giggled then looked to Lisa,

“That’s a personal fave. I’ll have to swing by and ask for some of that homemade Dr. P.” Marcy winked as she returned to the seats. Lisa smiled and gave a thumbs up,

“I’ll start brewing tomorrow. Hey, I just realized that we’ve done nothing but talk about me. Let’s talk about you farm girl! Where’re ya from?” Marcy froze, not knowing how to answer that question. She nervously moved some hair out of her vision then cleared her throat,

“Well…I’m from a small town just about twenty miles from Cincinnati. That’s how I was able to find out about Mark being my brother. We have different mothers. My mother went to a clinic and received seed from Mark’s father and oddly, my mother was also Korean.” Marcy tried her best to come up with her background, she smiled then pointed to the pins,

“You’re up soda girl!” Lisa got up to roll,

“What made you come out to see Mark?” Lisa asked as she grabbed her pink ball,

“Well…Mark went to the hospital not too long ago and I wasn’t sure if he was going to make it or not so I flew out to both meet him…and take care of him.” Lisa rolled her ball and knocked down eight pins,

“You seem like as good a sister as you are a friend.” Lisa winked which made Marcy blush slightly. Once, Lisa’s ball returned, she smiled brightly and rolled once again causing the rest of the pins to be knocked over. At the same time, three men about the same age as the girls approached their lane whilst one of them applauded,
“All strikes and spares. You girls got some skill.” All that emitted from Marcy’s mouth was a quiet,

“Umm…” Lisa noticed Marcy’s nervousness so she came over with a smile,

“Thanks, boys. You guys ain’t so bad either. I saw you down a few lanes.” The man with dark brunette hair fixed planted his hand in his pockets and smirked,

“Well couldn’t help but notice you. Two beautiful women like you? Surprised the whole alley didn’t swarm you.” Marcy smiled as her face turned red,

“That’s sweet.” The black haired man winked to Marcy then licked his lips which made Marcy scoff and roll her eyes,

“Name’s Cal.” Said the first man, “We were wondering if you girls wanted to head the club just down the block.” Lisa looked to Marcy then to Cal,

“I’m down for it, but I go where she wants to go.” The men all looked at Marcy and Marcy had many thoughts go through her head. What does she do? She just wanted to hang with her new friend but men are now asking her on a date. What if they just want to get into bed with her? What if these men are dangerous? Marcy’s mind then thought about Mark and how he let her out once again and this might be her last chance to have fun or even exist so he smiled then stood up,

“You know what? I’m down for it.” The men started cheering and Lisa grinned giving Marcy a nudge. Cal smiled,

“What’s your names, ladies?” Cal asked and so Marcy replied,

“Marcy. Marcy Fischbach.” Lisa introduced herself as well and the other two men introduced themselves as Mike and Jim. After that, the girls paid for their bowling game then left with the men out the door into the city of light.
