A Collision of Worlds

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov pulls himself up and starts to struggle against Lady Violet, who is actually Mischa. He is surprised by how strong she is.
"You're sick in the head if you think that." He yells at her.

[Mikhael Nadyezhda (Mischa)]

I am surprised by Vossya's sudden outburst, and push him back down, feeling dominant.

"Shhhh..." I say, pinning his wrists behind him, then wrap my lips around his.

[Lady Violet]

I pin him down by the wrists.

"Shhhhhh..."

I bring my lips to his.

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov eyes start to water. He puts his hand through her hair and accepts this. He pulls her close.
"I wish you wouldn't do this Violet. I'm afraid what the others might think."

[Lady Violet]

"That's it Valodya, there is no sense in resisting. I'm glad you see that."

[Mikhael Nadyezhda (Mischa)]

"Violet?"

I sit up, and slowly slide away from him.

"Vossya... Are, are you al-alright..?" I ask, in a somewhat terrified sort of voice.

[Karina Bassarov]

Karina slowly returns to reality. Thump Thump Thump And the hangover continues. She moans and attempts to open her eyes, only to close them again. d**n sunlight and whoever invented it. She attempts to rolls over and groans. She is sore, everywhere. Feels like she was up all night... Wait... Is that snoring? She is almost afraid to roll over so instead she peels the sheet away from herself and pulls it back just as quick. d**n did they...? Frank... Frank wake up... She pokes his leg with her foot, without turning around. She didn't want to face two things : Frank's body, which she hoped wasn't naked, and the sunlight.

[Valodya Bassarov]

"That's right. You should get going before the party finds out."

[Lady Violet]

I pull back and put my clothes back on.

"Of course, what was I thinking? I could be purged. Mischa should be back soon. Have a good day, Valodya."

My image fades out of the room. I was never there to begin with, only in Bassarov's mind. I am actually back at home with Hikari.

[Valodya Bassarov]

Violet teleports away and Mischa reappears in the room. Bassarov grabs Mischa by the shoulders and kisses him.
"What did you see? Thank god she left. You know I am loyal to you. I never even thought of her until the other day. It was all her. I wanted nothing to do with it."

[Mikhael Nadyezhda (Mischa)]

"Whoa, whoa..." I say, now standing beside the bed, and starting to get dressed.

"I think... I think you need some more rest..." I get dressed then head back into my room, trembling and sobbing. What is going on here?

I head into my bathroom and wash my face, not knowing what to do.

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov curls up into a ball on the bed. He calls out to Mischa.
"Lock the windows and doors, this place isn't safe anymore. And please, don't leave me. They're on to me now. They know where I'm weak."

[Mikhael Nadyezhda (Mischa)]

I don't hear his calls over the sound of the running water, and lean against the sink, staring into the mirror for a few minutes, running my hands through my hair.

Half of me is torn between going back into the bedroom, and staying in the bathroom. I stand there idly, and decide nothing.

["Zero" Americanski]

After chain-smoking half a pack I decide that Bassarov and Mischa are probaly done... I walk back to their apartment and listen, but hear nothing. Then I knock on the door.

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov stares at the book he started, laying so harmlessly on the desk. He stares at the book until he becomes sick and dizzy and finally falls asleep.
