::He paced back and forth, his boots making a sharp clicking sound as they meet the tiled floor, his mind a whirlwind of thoughts, and voices. He was only a short time from possible the highest point in his career yet. The challenge had gone as he thought it would, many words spoken, many feelings now, that would never die. Eros he couldn't care less about, but hurting Mystik, still made his eyes
water, but not now, the time for crying was over.
He remembered his words from the night before, "Not now, but I'll not be far away," he had said. The dwarf was rubbing it in his face, finally a gasket had blown, and he wouldn't take anymore, when the challenge was over, he would deal with that problem.
The words he had promised also coming to him, he had to change now, situations the old Meth needed to deal with had popped up, but his word was to change, and by god, he would change, that was one of the few things he had ever said, that meant a damn to him.
The whirlwind in his mind continued, he went from crying, to anger, to frustration, and back. His own Armageddon, had began.::
