"What's wrong dude?" asked Todd.
"I thought I heard a voice behind me," I said, looking behind me. I could have sworn I heard Soni's voice, "I can't go for another round."
"Arrite, dude, but I think I can beat you again."
I got out of the VR simulator and looked around, to see if it really was Soni, or something else. There was 3 people on the couches for the TV to my left, a foozeball game in front of me, and some people getting drinks at the table to my right. And Todd who was now shooting down AI opponents on the VR simulator.
"Kick it!" said one side of the foozeball game in front of me. That must have been what it was. I must have mistaken 'kick' for 'Myk'. I decided to go see what might be on in the movie room.
I went to there, and the movies that were going to be shown were "Greatest Arena Fights in History", "Amazing Battles in the Arena", and "Super-Bot Showdown". What's the difference between the three? I decided this might be a waste of time, so I went down to my dorm to see if there is anything to do there.
I went to the part of Global Cortex that held the dorms. I went into the elevator and pressed the button to level 9, the floor which my room was on. Once on level 9, the chrome doors of the elevator opened and I walked down the hallway to my room. Room number 921. I put the key in the door knob and opened the door.
"Holy shit!" Soni was standing right next to my bed!
I stood there for a few moments in disbelief. Soni smiled and gave me a wave, but didn't say anything. I don't care, Soni is alive again! I approached her, and tried to touch her, but as soon as my hand made contact with her white and pink jumpsuit, she disappeared.

"Finally! This is the first time I beat you!"
"Huh? What? O shit!" I saw my AC in flames. I must have drifted off daydreaming or something.
"Dude, you just stopped doing anything halfway through!" Todd said.
"Sorry, I was thinking," I replied, "I gotta go."
I took off the VR helmet and headed back to my dorm. I don't even think its possible to daydream during even the most boring AC battle, especially if you're the pilot.
I went up to my dorm, and took a shower. I'm actually still very clean, but a hot shower can take my minds off of things. Why did I have such a weird daydream? Especially during an AC battle? All these thoughts crossed my mind as the sound of running water calmed my mind. Then my computer gave a beep.
"Incoming call," I heard over the shower. Wonder who it could be.
I got out of the shower, dried myself off and wrapped the towel around me. I went to my computer and turned on the monitor. The screen opened up and Lynn was video-calling me.
"Whoa! Wait a sec! I'm not completely dressed!" Lynn smiled and gave a light giggle. Why are girls always like that?
"Hehe, it's ok, I just wanted to talk to you."
"Alright, well, what's up?" I went into my bedroom and put on some clothes.
"Well, I just want to say the other night was amazing, and I was wondering if you want to get together some time."
"That sound's great! Hey, I'm having an arena battle tomorrow, so maybe you can come down here and watch?"
"An arena battle? I don't really like those." Damn.
"Umm, well, how about a date afterwards?"
"Well, I guess so, just don't get hurt, I don't want to be all by myself. See you later!" Alright! This chick cares about me a lot!
I pressed the end button to end the call.
