*Ding,Ding*
The bell rings indicating the end of the date. "Maybe I'll see you around sometime?" She says as she gets up from the table. "Yeah, of course." I mutter to myself as she walks away. For those of you who don't know "See you around" is speed dating lingo for "You're a sweet guy but.... you're not my type." I'm not too disappointed though honestly, it wouldn't have worked out, she's a Capricorn. Don't know what I'm talking about? Here's a quick rundown of just the basics.

When you are born, you're born under one of twelve sun signs. I personally am an Aries, the first sign of the zodiacal new year. But you could be any of eleven more such as Cancer, Libra, Taurus etc. Each sign has varying compatibilities both friendly and romantically with the other signs. This is determined by each signs personality traits. Some signs are reckless and carefree while others are cautious and like to plan ahead. That's not to o say however you don't have traits other signs generally have. Aries are usually adventures (me) but I've met some other Aries who think eating different cereals for breakfast is terrifying!

You want to be careful of who you date though, if you and your current "significant other" are incompatible you will be in for a rough ride. This is mainly because your personalities could clash together so horribly that your relationship could cause a downward spiral in your life! There are a few exceptions to this rule but it's better to be safe than sorry.

I get up to move tables when a stunning woman in red sits down across from me. I immediately sit back down transfixed by her tourmaline like eyes. "Redd Wells?" She asks setting her small pastel pink coin purse on the table. "Yeah, that's me." I say noticing her wavy ebony hair falling like a shimmering waterfall to her chest. "My name is Carmen, Carmen Sicopi." As she tells me her name I notice that that her arm has a couple of claw marks on them that look relatively new. I gesture towards it and she looks down to the wound. "It's nothing important, in a couple of minutes you are going to have to move tables in order to find a new date. When you do, I want you to sit with that lady in the lime green dress." "Which one?" I ask looking around. "There are three, one is wearing a strapless dress with her hair in a bun. The other has bright red hair and looks like she has a mermaids tail. The final chick is wearing sunglasses and has her hair in a ponytail. Interesting hair color too, it looks emerald green!"

As I finished giving the descriptions my "date" looked frozen. Her face was a statuesque picture of fear. "What's the matter?" I inquire as the color slowly drains from her face. "There are three?!" She exclaims as she regains her composure. I look around the room again. "Scratch that, another one just got out of the restroom, her nails are super long and look like she artistically splattered crimson nail paint on them." "Damn it!" Carmen mutters as she reaches in the coin purse and pulls something out. "Why do you need a mirror?" I ask as she looks into it. "We're all in grave danger!" She cries out pulling a crossbow from the purse. That's when all hell broke loose.
