A/N- when Ivan uses "Mind Read" it is indicated by a "~" at the opening and close of the session...thank you!

Scene: Alexandrea

ENTER FMV (a bunch of Nobly Noble Nobles are walking down the street. We then see a small boy by the age of 14, wearing enormous clown shoes, sporting a big steeped hat and a robe that covers his body. His name is Ivan- a black mage. He looks down but after a shadow covers himself and the Nobly Noble Nobles. The shadow comes from the Tolbi-bound Ship in the air...The big musical score starts the ship flies magnificently to Alexandrea Castle and the words "GOLDEN FANTASY IX" appears) END FMV

(Ivan is walking down the street taking in the sights and commenting on how horrible the city looks despite what it said on the Travel Brochure. But due to his clown shoes, he falls. The Silly Little girl approaches )

Silly Little Girl (SLG): excuth me mithter but you dropped your thicketh.

Ivan: er...th-thank you

(he gets up and walks over to the ticket stand where the infamous Karst is awaiting him with ::Evil music:: the look of...Black Death...)

Karst: (looking at a Teen Magazine): what do you want, peon?

Ivan: heeeeeeey! that isn't very nice!!

Karst: (notices Ivan) well look who it is... (looks at a card that says "how to be nice to people without loosing your evil dignity") How... may...I-I-I H-h-h-help y-y-y-y-y-y-y-you? (tries to make a nice face, that looks terrible)

Ivan: that sounds like your hiding something... because you sound nicer than usual... MIND READ!!!

I cant believe that I, the great Karst, president of the Torture now and still look pretty club and honorary member of the Proxian League of the Obsessive Mars Adepts is to sit here and look like a loser reading a stupid magazine.
