The forest

[You'll catch a cold if you sleep there Mercury~ So wake up~]

Mercury twitched before he let out a groan as he rolled over onto his back, then he spoke out into the empty, cold night air

"Hey there Party…"

[Hehe… Looks like you got done in again~ How pathetic~]

"Yeah… Well… I have no excuse…"

Mercury sat up and felt his shirt, it was damp with his own blood and there was a hole on the front and the back of it, then he muttered

"Well, that sucked…"

[So? What are you going to do about it?~]

Mercury thought for a moment before he spoke

"I'm going to get even, kill me and your days are numbered… No matter if you are a street orphan or a king"

[Finally, you have grown some backbone~]

"Yeah well, I am pissed that's all…"

[Well then, my time is up, be sure to visit a temple sometime Mercury~]

"Yeah see you Party…"
