I found myself wandering around the root town for hours, not knowing what to do. Sure, I wanted revenge, but how was I supposed to do that when everytime I moved I ran into something. At this rate, the only way I would get revenge was if I fell on it.

Well, that's not exactly what happened, but pretty close. As I walked or made an attempt to I stumbled as usual and fell onto a pile of pink fluff.

"Whoa! Are you okay?" The fluff ball asked.

I sat up and rubbed my head. "Yeah, I think so..."

"Wow, you must be a noob!" He cried.

I froze as several eyes turned towards me. Great, the stupid puff ball made me look like an idiot. I was tempted to reach down and throw him in the river, when a familiar voice distracted me.

"Hey, Gaspard, who is this cute girl?"

I moved my target over to him. His name was Kuhn. For a second, as I stared at his immensely good looks, my jaw dropped.

Then I realized that I heard the voice twice.

"Shut up T-" I was about to say his real name, but I doubted that he wanted it flashed onto the web, so I stopped and hissed: "Kuhn."

Kuhn must have heard the echo as well because he frowned for a second as Tomonari reached over to touch my shoulder. I smacked his hand away. I was still a bit upset at him.

"Do you two know each other?" Gaspard asked.

"Kind of. I work for her father." He said.

"Worked." I hissed back.

Tomonari and Kuhn both sighed. "Are you going to get over it?"

"Not until he's back." I hissed to Tomonari.

Gaspard stared at us. "Is this another one of your girlfriends?" He asked.

I growled deeply at him and reached down.

Tomonari stared at me while I stared at the dinner I was making mindlessly. Both of us were thinking about what I had done earlier. Each time I heard Gaspards words I flinched, and my dicing went wrong.

"You have to admit it was funny."

I flinched again and sliced my finger open. "Shit!"

Tomonari looked over at me, but I glared and ran to clean it up. God, I was such a klutz! Tomonari must think that I-

My eyes widened as I stopped that train of thought. I sounded like a little teenager idolizing some boy. Ugh, gross. I hated girls like that.

"Damn." I hissed as I bandaged it and looked at my face. It was swollen and bruised. It seriously made me want to throw up.

I thought about Gaspard's face for a second, as I drop kicked him into the water. I almost laughed when I saw his wet form up on the platform.

I shut the light off and slammed the door shut behind me, walking out to find that Tomonari was now dicing...well! My heart twanged for a second as I thought about him being able to cook, one of my five dating qualities.

"Hey, I hope you don't mind me cooking." He said.

I shook my head and walked into the kitchen. "It makes things easier." I mumbled as I put the fish into fry.

Ugh!! How could I possibly like this guy?!

"I have a question for you." He began.

I looked up at him for a second and barely managed to hang onto my hating side. "What?" I hissed.

"Where did you learn to kick like that."

I smiled a bit. "I've taken soccer since I was ten. It started out as an anger outlet because of my mother, then I grew to like it."

"What position?"

"Keeper."

He nodded. "Cool."

Aww damn, this guy was so awesome! He had just qualified for the second mark on my list.

Tomonari's phone began to ring, so he excused himself to answer it. I nodded and started seasoning the fish.

As I was doing so, I heard some yelling coming from the other room and sighed. Poor guy was going through a lot.

"Dammit!" Tomonari hissed as he walked back in. "I hate CC Corp so much."

Three.

"Why?"

"They're always allowing sacrifices to be made, especially for G.U.! We Epitaph Users can't go on like this."

I dropped my spatula and stared at him. My legs started to get weak, and then began to shake. Before I knew it, I had fallen on the ground and whimpered. I didn't pay attention to the attention I was bringing to me, I just focused on that one word. Epitaph.

And then another word.

Karin.
