“Yes, I am coming tomorrow”, said a young man on his phone, “You don’t need to worry”.
“Oh brother, by the way Danny is also coming tomorrow.”, said a young women over the phone.“Are you finally a couple little sis?”, he asked in a sarcastic tone.
“What, no! You know that it is not like that. We are just best friends, and she also has someone she likes and he is a man.”
“Yes yes I know.”, he said, “Also I still have work to do so I have to hang up.”
“Yea I know you still have a lot of work to do for your ‘little’ project. You did not even say what it is about. Huh, ... but don’t forget about tomorrow, bye.”
“I won’t forget so don’t worry and bye little sis until tomorrow.”
After this word the young man hanged up and put his phone into his pockets. He is currently sitting in a small office with a computer in front of him. His looks are above average, even thought he always says that he looks average. He has a sightly muscular physic from doing sport regularly in his free time, and with 1.80 meters (~5’11”) he had an average height. He has dark brown hair. The only thing that stands out are his eyes. Most of his iris are gray but there is a small cycle of purple around his pupils.
“Was that your little sister Allen?”, asked a rough voice on the other side of the desk.
“Yes it was my little sis, Daniel. I have to go to my parents place tomorrow for her birthday.”, Allen said.
“So how far is the code for the project, you know how the boss is.” Daniel said. He looks like a rough fellow but if you knew him you would know he couldn’t hurt anybody. Daniel has brown hair and green eyes. He is full of muscles and with his height of 2 meters (~6’7”) he looks really intimidating.
“It should be ready after I add one more function. So about an hour.”
“Thats great new, finally the boss won’t ask about it every time someones is near him. Also do you have something planned for next weekend?”
“No I don’t have anything planned. What are you going to do?”
“I and some friends are going parachuting and I want to ask if you would like to come with us.”
“Parachuting hmm. Yea that sound great I will come with you.”
“Great I will send you the details after work”
And so both of them started to work on the project again.

5 hours later the work day was over.
“Finally the day is over”, said Daniel.
“It was not that bad”, replied Allen.
“Says the workaholic.”
“…”, Allen just looks at Daniel with a oppressive gaze.
“Anyway good day!”, Daniel said before he left hurriedly.
Allen just shakes his head before he let the office to go to his apartment. He rented the apartment recently so that he could life closer to his workplace, so he doesn’t have to travel 2 hours a day to the office.
Outside it was a sunny Friday evening. Even thought it was mid June it was not to hot and with a light breeze it was nice to just take a walk.
After 5 minutes someone walked into him. That person was strangle dressed for this time of year with a large overcoat so that you could see nothing of the person within.
“It’s you”, the stranger starts to scream, “I have finally found you.”
“Who are you and what do you want from me?” asked Allen nicely.
“It’s because of you that she does not like me. You made her forget about me. Oh my Princess why did you forget about me for this person.”
“What are you talking about?”, even thought Allen asked he did not get an answer as the stranger took a pistol from under his coat and pointed it at him.
“Wow no need to take a gun out. And who are you talking about.”
Meanwhile the other people around notice what is happening and some of them began to flee. Most other started to ran after the stranger shoots one bullet into the air and points again on Allen.
“Oh my beautiful princess. Oh my one and only Marie. You took her from me you made her fell in love with you. She does not want to talk with me anymore and all is your fault. If you do not exist anymore she will come back to me and she will only be mine”, the stranger said with a crazy look in his eyes.
‘Marie, Marie do I even know someone named Marie’, Allen thought while cursing the other party. And then he remembers a person named Marie. He met her in a bar about two weeks ago and they and her friends began to talk. He learned a bit about her but not much, but one of the thins he noticed was that she was always looking around with a fearful gaze. As I asked about it one of her friends said that she had a crazed stalker who would always say she was his property and that only he can have her.
“Are you talking about a girl with blond hair and blue eyes. If you are I have only met her once in an bar.”
“Yes that is my Princess and you defiled her with your presence and god knows what you did after that.”
“What are you talking about I left with them because they where too drunk to do anything and I only brought them to one of there homes and left after that.” Allen started talking faster after he noticed someone sneaking behind the stranger.
I don’t care you have to be dead for her to be mine again.” And the stranger shoot the gun while pointing on Allen’s head.
As Allen saw that the stranger was shortly before firing he tried to jump on the side while thinking ‘Can today get even worse’.
*Bang*
*Ding*
It was as if time moved slower after he heard the sound of the gun firing and he know he would not survive this. But he was confused about what the second sound was.
Then he saw letters forming in front of him and that read.
[Welcome beings of Earth the allotted time before your integration has passed and you are now fully fledged members of the Multiverse. Welcome to the Sys…]
Before he could even finish reading not to mention to compare what he read the bullet hit his head and went though his brain. The final thing he saw was another line of text.
[You have died]
And everything went black.
