How long can one ignore the voices in their head?

Nine years. To Mark, that was the limit. 

For the majority of his life, Mark White has been fighting a constant battle for his sanity. The voices in his head pushed him toward madness one whisper at a time, and the music he used to ward against them was gradually losing its effects. 
As his mental state slowly deteriorated, Mark spent more of his time working on a game he had been developing and lamenting his lack of romantic experience. 

One night, the voices dealt him a powerful blow, bringing their battle to an end. To his surprise, Mark won the battle, but that came at a great cost.

The voices might have disappeared, but a visual hallucination arrived to replace them, taking the form of a character from his game: Maids VS Apocalypse. Little did he know that the real apocalypse was already coming for him.

Maids VS Apocalypse

"This… this was… a really bad… idea…"

Mark forced the words out between labored breaths. His vision blurred and the world around him swayed. A cold breeze helped him regain some vitality, but it wasn't enough to get him back into top shape.

"Hahaha… really, Newbie," Alex's voice came from his right. "How long has it been since you last had some practice?"

"Practice?" Ramsay's voice came from the left. The only practice he had in the last two years was walking to the train station!"

Though there were no falsehoods in the Sergeant's statement, it managed to anger Mark nonetheless. Sports were never his thing, and ever since he started living on his own, the only times he went out were either to buy groceries or go to school.

No bullying the newbie.
