 Jonathan Harker has nineteen years old and is a games fanatic, he's a professional poker player. His whole world collapsed ten years ago, but Mina saved him from the suffering. However, he distracts himself with games. What I'm going to tell you isn't a story... is a real fact that changed Jonathan's life.

  On April 6th of 2014, in an elegant bar in London, there were Jonathan and his girlfriend, Mina. She is a very beautiful girl of eighteen years old. She's the only person that Jonathan has but, he doesn't remember anything of what she likes or the especial dates.

"I didn't tell you... today I have a poker game with a foreigner. Well, I think so because anybody know him" said Jonathan, but Mina didn't say anything."Do you want to eat ice cream?" Jonathan asked. "I want a café" she said a little bit angry. "Oh right. You don't like sweet food, I forget it" Jonathan said confused. "Don't worry. You only remember your poker games" Mina looked disappointed. "Don't be like that, you know that poker is my life. Oh, I'm not saying that you're not important it's only that... ". "Jonathan, today is my birthday"she shed a tear and running she left the bar. "Oh god. Stop! Mina!"Jonathan tried to follow her but, he lost her in the crowd. "How did I forget that? Agh" He said disappointed of himself.

 After that, Jonathan didn't call Mina because he thought that she was very angry, or maybe it's because he had an important poker game which he had to attend. He went to the Poker House, where all the professionals go to compete. There Jonathan was going to play with someone called Drac. Anyone knew who he was or where he was from, but he said that he can beat everyone there. So, Jonathan wanted to win and make him feel ridiculous. The strange man was tall, he had about nineteen years old (or so it seems). He had short black hair and green eyes.

 "Hi friend, ready to lose your life?" asked Drac

"Hi friend, ready to lose your life?" asked Drac. "What did you say?" Jonathan was confused again. "Haha, are you scared because I'm going to be the winner?"  The eyes of the mystery man started to shine; his green eyes turned red. "Who are you?" He was surprised. "I'm your worst nightmare" he whispered. But Jonathan didn't hear that. The game started and Jonathan was a little bit nervous, but he didn't know why. The both were intelligent and incredibly good players. However, this time Jonathan looked like an amateur. They were so focused. In one moment, everything indicated that Jonathan was going to win but, Drac made a play that defined the game; he won. Jonathan couldn't understand that. He didn't lose to anyone for four years. "It couldn't be possible! He couldn't have win!" he was thinking. "Well...this defines everything" said the winner. "What do you mean?" said Jonathan. "Hey, you lose so, you have to follow me now". "Wait! I want a rematch!", Jonathan was so furious. "You will have your rematch if you follow me". Next, Jonathan was following an unknown person to a forest. "Where are we going?" He wondered on the way. It was suspicious. However, he wanted a rematch.

 After thirty minutes walking in the dark forest, Jonathan asked "Are you sure that this is the way?"

 After thirty minutes walking in the dark forest, Jonathan asked "Are you sure that this is the way?". The man stopped walking and said "Of course, we arrived". And he hit Jonathan on the head. Then, Jonathan fell unconscious.

 When Jonathan opened his eyes, he was in a dark room. There weren't lights and he had his hands and feet tied. He was so scared and all was strange, the room was in completely silence. Since a familiar voice broke the silence. "Hi buddy, this is a good night, isn't it?". A light went on and illuminated Jonathan. "What do you want from me?!" Jonathan said angry. "What do I want from you?". The man talking went under the light showing his face, he was Drac. "Well it's a good question. But I don't want to talk about me. You know, today is a very special day. It's the birthday of a beautiful girl...". "What?!" said Jonathan worried. "Don't you remember? Today is the birthday of your girlfriend...What was her name? Ah... Mina". "Mina! Don't touch her!!! I advise you, if you hurt her I will...". "You will what? hahahah...your jokes are so funny buddy. Today you have luck, because I'm in good mood. Why don't we wish to your special girl the happy birthday HAHAHAH!". And the lights turned off again. "LET'S GET THE PARTY STARTED! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
