Loki Admin: The Selkirk Rex Legacy

by Usyra

This is the untold adventure of a Ghoul who had a significant impact in the lives of Yugi and his friends, written in the first person. Completed at last, now with a closing theme after the last chapter.

21. Closing: Man in the Middle

Usyra: Thanks for sticking around. I thought we'd close things off with a song. I know that you won't hear us singing, but I felt the need to add this since it goes so well with my story. It's a little number by the Bee Gees from their last great record "This is where I came in", sung by the late Maurice Gibb. As we sing, feel free to imagine any montage you want. Take it away, Loki.

Loki: Sure thing. Ladies and gents…Man in the Middle. A-one, a-two, a-you-know-what-to-do…

You've got a plan that could never go wrong
You took advantage and the damage done
It all comes back to me baby
It all comes back to me

I played the fool and I went off the track
And when I think of all it cost
When the die was cast
You know I had to be crazy
You know I had to be

I've been telling lies
And you forgive me but my heart still cries
And you can understand

I'm just the man in the middle
Of a complicated plan
No one to show me the signs
I'm just a creature of habit
In a complicated world
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide

I know I let you down in so many ways
I know that sorry doesn't tell you
What you need me to say
But, I would die for you baby
Yes, I would die for you

I've been in disguise
And you forgive me and our love will rise
And you can understand

I'm just the man in the middle
Of a complicated plan
No one to show me the light
Ah, yes, I'm weary from battle
But I've just begun to fight
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide

I'm just the man in the middle
Of a complicated plan
No one to show me the signs
I'm just a creature of habit
In a complicated world
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide

I'm just the man in the middle
Of a complicated plan
No one to show me the light
Ah, yes, I'm weary from battle
But I've just begun to fight
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide

I'm just the man in the middle
The only man
The fool of a man in the middle
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide

I'm just the man
The only man
That stupid man
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide

Usyra: Well, that was fun, wasn't it?

Loki: Pathetic! You should've told me you sucked at playing the keyboard.

Usyra: What? No I don't!

Loki: Just because you can write about how good you are, it doesn't mean you are. I don't mind doing this after our next adventure, but I'm moving you to bass. (Storms off)

Usyra: …Even from my own characters, I get no respect.
