Um… well, I got TOA and I was playing it and this big, random fanfic idea popped into my head. All I know is that it's gonna be complicated. So bear with me. Please.

"Hey, Luke, that new employee's coming today."

Luke looked up at his co-worker and took off his glasses; blinking a few times to clear up the sudden strain on his eyes.

"Seriously?"

"Yeah."

He threw up his arms and cheered.

"Yes! He kept his promise!"

His fellow employee stared at him worriedly. Granted, Luke was always a bit out of it, but this was new.

"You know who it is?"

Luke smiled broadly at him.

"Asch emailed me about a month ago, saying he was trying to get this job. I can't believe he pulled it off!"

He cheered again and accidently hit the keyboard, causing a string of unrelated text to appear.

"Dammit, call me again when he's here, okay?" he asked, putting his glasses back on and undoing the damage.

"Um… Got it."

Luke smiled as the other left. After years of waiting, they'd finally pulled it off. His mind drifted to the past. Before they made a promise, before all of the catastrophe that had happened with Mieu, and all the way to when they had first met.

Asch had been right. It really had been a one in a million chance.

And I guess I'm done with the prologue….
