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

Mark noticed the subtle displeasure in his maid's soon after she returned to his side. He thought nothing of it at first only to change his mind soon after they started moving again. Before he could say anything, however, Elya spoke out first.

"Hey, don't let it bother you." She said. "That thing had a lot more time to train."

Just like him, Lara had yet to get the chance to raise her stats and because of that, she was far from reaching her full potential even though she had already leveled up nineteen times.

Knowing that changed how one looks at the previous battle. Being able to stand her ground against a far more powerful spoke of her superior skills and fighting prowess. If they had been equal in terms of stats, there was no doubt that she would've come out as the winner.

"I understand…" Lara said after a brief silence. "What bothers me are those cuffs he used."

Franco seemed to know something as he spoke up without looking back.

Get in.
