Description Continue to be John:

You continue to be John of course, you don't have any special powers that allows you to
change shape, but that would be really cool.

You are currently driving in a cab back towards your shop. You've been on a minor tour
for a month, and Veronica has managed the shop flawlessly in your absence by herself. She
has proven time and time again that she is a star employee, if not a little rude to the
customers at times. However you do not care because she gets the job done and is a great
friend to you.

Your relationship with Veronica has only grown (if that's possible) while she continues
to work at the HaHa-Torium. You've both learn to appreciate each other's strengths and
weakness, but Veronica denies having anything; however you know better, and you both know
how to compliment each other's assets.

You both are probably the best of friends you could ever want. This is perfectly
acceptable because you've read that no inter-office relationship should exceed that. She
tells you about how she spends her nights (which is usually spent dating or some other
bragging activity), and you talk about . . . okay your life quite frankly is not that
interesting.

You see from inside the cab that the store is currently empty except for Veronica being
bored at the cash register. It doesn't surprise you that it's slow today; you've been
having waves of business on and off.

You pay the cab fare and wish the driver a good day. Then you turn to your shop and walk
forward.

You enter your shop and watch as Veronica immediately lights up.

"John! You're finally here! It's 8een so long without you."

You chuckle, "Now Veronica, don't tell me you were that lonely without me."

She smirks back at you, "Of course not, I just miss not 8eing able to take br8ks."

You get a little embarrassed by her answer "Oh, well I'm here now, so do you want to take
a break?"

She politely (you think) laughs at you, "Silly Pupa," which is her strange pet name for you when she thinks you're acting like a child; you'd rather not ask where she got the name from. "Of course I missed you, 8ut just a little. Now why don't you tell faaaaaaaa8ulous Veronica all a8out your trip."

And you do, obviously Veronica inserts at times actions that she would have done instead
of what actually happens, but you don't mind. You know that Veronica listens better to
you than any other person that she's been close too.

That is why you are close friends.

Veronica excuses herself after your talk to go check on some supplies in the back of the store. You are now alone at the register.

You wait over ten minutes before any action happens.

Just then you hear your shop's door ding. You look over and see a rugged man walk into
the store who's just a little older than you. He has scars all over his face and a purple
streak of hair within his black. He seems to be cautiously examining the entire store
before going too far in.  

You recognize him as a full grown hooligan, but you know better than to assume that he is
as such. Besides, Veronica always handles the difficult customers and she isn't here
right now, so you have to deal with him.

You're just going to have to hope for the best that he isn't trouble.

"Hello good sir," you say as you address the man, "How may I help you on this fine
evening?"

He does a quick look over at you and decides that you are of no danger,"Yeah, I'm looking
for someone, is there anyone else here?"

You start getting a little nervous, "Uhh, only my fellow employee, but she's checking
inventory right now."

"That's alright," he replies, "I can wwait."

You don't know what to do and you are running out of options, you hate dealing with these
kinds of customers. "Well are you interested in purchasing any items?"

"Shut up, are you really going to be this fucking annoying?"

You back away sensing that this guy means business. "Excuse me sir?" you stammer.

"Look asshole, I'm looking for Veron-" he falls straight to the ground with a little
blood bleeding from the back of his head.

You look up and see Veronica breathing heavily over the man holding a trick mechanical
chair that falls back when sat on for only $7.99. She looks at you more scared than you
have ever seen her.

"Why did you do that!?"

She slowly hides the chair behind her, "I don't know what you mean John."

You can't believe this, "Bu-but there's a bleeding unconscious man on my store's floor!
Veronica, I want to know why you almost killed him!"

Veronica leans the chair on a shelf and walks over in your direction, "I didn't kill him.
8esides would you trust him?"

"I don't know him Veronica! And you can't just knock someone out if they're slightly
suspicious!"

"Well I know him John! And I know he's dangerous, so try to 8e gr8ful."

You calm down a little, "You know this man?"

She avoids your eyes, "Veronica, please tell me. I need to know."

Veronica stares into your eyes a little ashamed, "John . . . he's my-" You hear two loud
bangs, and Veronica stops talking and falls into your arms. You look behind her and see
the man is barely awake holding a gun pointing at Veronica. He faints again while you try
to figure out what just happened.

"Wha-What!?" You keeping looking around to find some sort of explanation for this mess, but you are unsuccessful. Veronica was shot in the left arm, and slightly grazed in the
left eye. She is losing a lot of blood, and her life is slipping through your fingers.

What do you do?

You try to remember what to do, but your mind keeps blanking.

Then out of nowhere, a man walks into your store, sees two people bleeding and unconscious, and tries to walk back outside again. You call him before he leaves to go get help. He's hesitant but complies.

You look back at Veronica as her breathing becomes strained and set yourself to save her life.

You hope you are lucky enough to save her.

Yeah, I haven't worked on mine since before thanksgiving, but that's only because the holidays and finals threw me off schedule. I'm planning to start back up either this week or New Years. And I've kind of started a new fanfic that's taking up the majority of my time, though I haven't really announced that one yet.

CuddleFish124 In reply to lolpopcorn13 [2011-12-28 18:32:05 +0000 UTC]

It's called "The One I Long For". It's a fanfic for the anime D.Gray-man (which is AWESOME but then again that's just me) and is mainly a romance between two characters but there's more to it than that. Anyway I've been writing it since April and uploading a chapter almost every week, so putting it on an unplanned hiatus was kind of stupid on my part. Anyway if you're interested I made a trailer for it. [link]

Yay? (The show or my story? Or both?) (Also I don't know if the "hmm I'm going to need to look into this some more." is a good "hmm I'm going to need to look into this some more." or a neutral/mildly curious "hmm I'm going to need to look into this some more." XDDDDD)

I'm not familiar with the anime so I need to watch the video, then check on what the anime is about. Then read your story depending on my curiosity.

Pretty good all in all. I'm impressed that you made a video about it.

Thank you! Yeah I don't know why I made a video, but I really liked the song and it really encompassed what my fic is all about. Anyway thanks for looking at it!

Holy crap dude. That was intense I'm shaking.
She lost her left eye and arm? *hmmm* *shot*
The writers have done applaudingly well. Reward them with no cookies. *or not* *wwhatevver*

lolpopcorn13 In reply to SpongeyYoshi [2011-12-17 20:36:23 +0000 UTC]

haha, the writers are getting celery as a reward from all of these cookies. Also to clarify if it wasn't clear, her eye is still fine the bullet just hit the side of it.

I don't want her to lose that eye, but it would be fun.

I don't know how bullets work.

SpongeyYoshi In reply to lolpopcorn13 [2011-12-19 01:28:15 +0000 UTC]

Hopefully the celery energizes their brains enough to write in some more characters of equal awesomity. Cause, ya know what happens if they can't. *holds up razor sharp cookies*

Very awesome and I can see why you oranchnily thought for Tavros being the one to shoot her. But can't really grib the idea of him going through it (or something like that) But very awesome. ]:)

Tavros is just too freaking nice, and I have no idea why I didn't think of Eridan before. When I decided that Tavros just couldn't fit the picture, I then thought of just making up a character. But all my characters that are important are based off the story, so I was up to that idea.

And now we know how Vriska dies. Maybe.
