================================================
~ "The Blue Bar Incident" ~
Seth and Takakura entered the Blue Bar. Griffin and Muffy were behind the counter, and Kassey, Patrick, Grant, and Hardy were ordering drinks and socializing.
"Griffin, my man!" Seth said. "Gimmie a Moon Trip!"
"Comin' up!" Griffin said. He grabbed a glass.
Seth and Takakura took seats by Patrick and Kassey.
"Hows it going, young 'un?" Patrick asked.
"Just fine, thank you," Seth responded, smiling.
Takakura ordered a red punch. He got his faster, as red punch wasn't so hard to make.
Seth watched as he drank it. "Thirsty guy, huh?"
Takakura sighed. "Yup. Hard day, going up that mountain delivering your stuff."
"Yeah, I guess so."
Seth took his Moon Trip from Griffin, and payed up. He drank deeply, when he heard a door opening. He lowered his glass to see Murrey enter the bar.
Murrey did not look too healthy. His face was even redder, some spots of purple were visible as well. His hair was bushy, it looked like some clumps had fallen out. His eyes were red, and pupils were as small as ants.
"...Murrey?" Seth said.
Hardy took a look at Murrey. "Oh, dear. Everyone, step back..."
Griffin looked at Murrey. "What the hell?"
Seth approached Murrey cautiously. "Murrey..."
"Seth, get away from him," Hardy warned.
"Murrey... are you okay? Do you need help?"
"Seth!" Hardy said. "I'm warning you, get away from him."
Seth took a step closer.
"Seth, get the hell away from him!" Muffy shouted.
Seth got closer.
"Murrey- AAAGH!"
Murrey bit Seth hard on the hand as he reached for him. He pushed Seth out of the way, knocking him into a wall, and his head hit a shelf, knocking it down.
Murrey jumped onto the counter. Griffin pulled out a shotgun and aimed it at Murrey. Murrey, sensing danger, pushed him as he pulled the trigger. The shotgun went off, hitting Takakura in the shoulder.
Seth didn't believe his eyes. "Takakura!"
Murrey grabbed the shotgun, and he and Griffin both pulled it towards each other. Hardy knelt by Takakura and grabbed his medical supplies.
Murrey had won over the fight for the shotgun, but there was a price to pay. WHACK! Griffin punched him in the face. He stumbled, almost falling off the counter, and fired his shotgun. This time the blast struck Muffy in the chest.
Seth looked up to see Muffy fall against a cabinet.
"Muffy!!!!" He shouted.
Griffin had grabbed the shotgun when Murrey fell off the counter. Griffin aimed it down at Murrey, and fired it.
Seth ran over to Muffy's body. Hardy observed her.
"She's... dead..."
Seth felt a sudden pain, and fell unconcious...
---
"Is he okay?"
"I don't know. He hasn't woken up."
"I feel sorry for him... with his girlfriend... and all..."
"Yeah... you know what if feels like, right?"
"Yes... back when Nina died..."
Seth awoke. He found himself in Hardy's house, which was originally Galen and Nina's until Nina had died. He sat up and looked around.
"Ahh! Where am I? Where's Muffy? Where's Takakura? Please tell me they're alive..."
Galen was sitting on a couch next to a bed, which had Takakura asleep in it. Doctor Hardy quickly rushed over to Seth.
"Seth! Its me, Hardy! Calm down."
"I can't! I need to see Muffy!"
Hardy sighed. "You won't be... seeing Muffy anytime soon."
"You don't mean..."
Hardy nodded sadly. "She died."
The words echoed in Seth's head like in a cave. A glass in his emotions shattered.
"No... it can't be... but we... we were gonna get... married..."
Seth fell back in his bed sobbing uncontrollably, covering his eyes with his hands. The person he was engaged with, the person he loved with all his heart, Muffy... was dead...
