Location- City of the Cosmos
POV- Narcissus

     I sat in my bed with Clico passed out asleep. He needed the rest. I got up out of bed after a few morning breaths and decided to brew myself a drink. Whilst doing that I went back into the bathroom and threw on a black and purple shirt and some beautifully designed black cargos. I put on a necklace filled with ambrite. Ambrite was one of my favorite minerals. Purple and golden.

     I looked at myself in the mirror and fixed my hair. I left it to be wavy today but slightly gelled to keep the luxury look. My eyes still had the purple spots in them that I loved. A gorgeous gorgeous man indeed.

      I'm not sure where Antonio was. I told him before he left that he could use my card and get something for himself. Like a drink or something. He deserved it for how he's treated me lately. I tidied up my clothes and put some socks on to wander around the rooms. I sprayed a bit of cologne on and went to grab my brew. It had a sweet but bitter scent to it. Just like the usual.

I took my sips slowly and looked out at the cityscape and floating trains speeding through the air. I really liked the City of the Cosmos, even though there was danger there was peace as well.

I might go down to the floor below mine and play some cards or a game of tech chess. All were Earth games that I found to be quite fun. This was my empire and I decided what I would do with it. I grabbed my brew and decided to open the door and head down towards the game floor. I waited in the elevator and listened to the peaceful tunes that played.

     I walked out of the elevator and walked over to one of the tables.

    "What game will it be today?" said one of the servers.

    "Cards," I said politely.

    "And your partner of choice?" He had his notepad and pen.

    "I'm not sure. Just find someone will you?" I said while sipping my brew.

     "Right away sir," the server said while heading off.

     My brew began to run cold. I would have to ask the server for some more. I looked around and saw my server come back a few minutes later. There was a person by him. A person in armor. He was a tall man. Not as tall as I was. To the average person however, he was fairly tall. He had longer hair than me though and a dark look to him. He carried his helmet in his right arm. He had two long sets of braids with pink going towards the ends going down his chest.

He had a spark of pink in his eyes. He looked down at me in my chair with a dark stare. I stood up to his face and stared at him right back.

"Got a problem?" I asked darkly.

"No," he said with a dark voice.

     We both didn't speak for awhile and sat down.

     The server broke the silence.

     "Well what can I get for both of you?" the server asked.

     "A bittersweet brew, thanks," I said annoyed.

      "Oh—- Right away sir," the server said walking off.

     We sat there waiting in silence.

     "What's your name?" The man asked.

     "Narcissus, yours?" I replied while giving him the same glare.

     "Abanus," he replied. "What's your status?"

     "King I suppose. I rule this place," I replied giving him an egotistical look.
