Please read & review. It's better than double chocolate malts!

So as I was browsing the forums, I came across the info for the episode next week. The thread was already up to 11 pages when I started reading through it. It had been up for a couple of weeks. Well, then I found out what was going to be happening. My poor Bobby! What were they doing to him? As if he didn't already make me want to hug him and make him feel better, they have to go do something like this… sigh And someone put up pictures too… Oh dear oh dear. Well I just don't know how I'm going to make it till next week. The wait is usually bad enough, but this is awfulness. I figured I'd just listen to some music and have a lie-down and hopefully feel better in a bit.
After a few minutes though, I knew that wasn't going to work. Not at all. Blame it on Dragonforce, blame it on too much anime, blame it on me being just that crazy, but I couldn't let it go. So I got up and went to the mirror. I gazed into it, and asked for Zillah to come and talk to me. I heard her stretch and yawn, like a big cat, and ten times more deadly. "What do you want?"
"I need your help."
"You need lots of help, the kind I'm not good at."
"Come on, please?"
"What do you need this time?"
I sketched out the situation to her, to which she replied, "I know I live in your head and all, but you have seriously LOST it this time. It's fictional, you know that right?"
"Well… technically… but… Well I mean you of all people know how what we think is so solid really isn't."
She sighed heavily. "Damn it. You're messing with stuff you shouldn't you know. Turning reality inside out isn't something you do just because you're all hot and bothered over someone who's not real. This is yet another reason why I am so happy to have no sex drive."
"Keep up with that & I'll give you one."
"You can try but you and I both know it'll never stick. You're the borderline nympho. So how do you expect me to accomplish this mission? There is the whole issue of me not having my very own physical body."
"You can use mine."
"Yeah right, like you'd ever let me do that."
"Yes I will." I looked hard into the mirror, looking past my own eyes and into hers, lurking in the back. "I freely give you use of my body until this task is accomplished. After such time it will be returned to my control. Are we agreed?"
"If that means no interference from you until the job is done, we are."
"Then it is a deal." I felt my awareness slip backwards like falling into a trance almost. I could still see and hear clearly, and I could speak to Zillah if I needed to, but conscious control of my body was gone. And as a side benefit, so were many of the concerns that go with it. I was just along for the ride.

Hey thanks for reading the first chapter. I hope you stick with the rest of the story. It's probably a good bit different from the kind of stuff you'd think of when you think LOCI, but if you're into fantasy stories or just plain weirdness, I think you'll like it. Please review for me! Thank you.
