GEOVRU: Repticatch

EPILOGUE

Adrakenn and I walked out of the airport terminal and onto the street in front of us. We made our way to the train platform, casually conversing about our break, and what we did over it. She told me about how she had met someone, got together with him and how she swears that he's the one. I told her about how I hadn't done much but look up this year's game and spend time with my family. I didn't complain though. I honestly wanted to meet this guy. The two of us leaned up against a pole labeled 'Platform G' The second the train arrived, the two of us climbed on and sat down in a section by ourselves. Not many people seemed to notice me, at least not as Mödare, but that was part of the glory of me choosing not to use that title from last year, I wasn't bothered.

"Hey, Mödare?" Adrakenn started saying, breaking the silence. I looked over to her. She had restyled her hair for the third time since summer started. Instead of her shoulder length mess she had last year, she had grown it out a little and curled it slightly, however she still bore her signature antenna that always stuck out on the top of her scalp.

"Yeah?" I also had changed my appearance. I had let down my hair from its pony tail and let it drop. I had also cut it to just a little shorter than my mid back. My bangs were parted to the side and the black beret instead of the bow I used to sport. I had bought myself some new clothes as well; my coat was nothing more special than a hoodie with false fur on all the hems. I wore a skirt instead of dark skinny jeans and boots that reached just below my knees, also with false fur at the top. The leggings I wore kept the rest of my legs from getting cold, and my old thick scarf was replaced with a fancier, more girly one. There was only one thing that hadn't changed, the old bag that my mother gave to me. I had held onto this thing since high school, and I wasn't letting it go.

"Do you think this year is going to be any different from last year?" she asked, looking outside the window as the tram sped off. I too looked out the window and thought to myself.

So much had changed over the past few months, mostly inside of me, but I knew that there was only going to be even more change on the outside. The world was going through so much at this time. War, so much war, and people were even beginning to think about cancelling the production of the Atomiton. This news almost shocked me, but when I sat down and listened to their arguments, I couldn't help but believe them. Maybe we weren't supposed to have these crazy computers inside our heads. Especially with all the controversial stuff it had caused, like mind control, and even some people's heads exploding. I shook the violent image out of my head and looked back at Amy.

"Nah... it's probably gonna be the same."
