Somebody hated me and my guts. Somebody high up. I checked the tip color. Gold. This was from one of the original game coders! There were only four possibilities!
But then it hit me. No, they didn’t hate my guts. They just wanted to see if I had what it took. I had faced down the odds before. I had fought against special items all night. This was just another one. The most powerful, sure, but still, only a special item.
I summoned a lightsaber, which I promptly chucked at his face. He swung the hammer, and obliterated it.
Oh no.
I grabbed out my electric sword. He swung. The weapon disintegrated in my hands.
I had forgotten about this part.
I went through weapon after weapon, beating a hasty retreat, trying to come up with some sort of plan. My armory was dwindling. I had used up over thirty weapons in this match alone.
My spear split in two. I quickly summoned my next weapons. A small pile of boomerangs appeared in my hands. I tucked them under one arms, and then started chucking them. I kept summoning and throwing, summoning and throwing. He waded his way through them, smashing them one after another. His hammer swung in blinding circles, he easily blocked each and every last one.
And then suddenly he stopped. His avatar blinked. Match over. He glanced down, trying to figure out where I had got him.
There was a ninja star poking into his chest.
I grinned at him.
He gave me a black look, and disappeared.
He was gone by the time I got back into the lobby. Skul had fled as well.
The whole warehouse burst into cheers and applause.
“YOU DONE IT!” Mateo crossed the room in one fell-swoop, dumped my laptop onto the cushions and crushed me into a hug. Then he and the other guys hoisted me on their shoulders. I glanced at the TV, where my avatar just stared stupidly at all the others milling around me.
They finally put me down, and gave Celeste her chance. She crushed me into a hug as well, but I got a kiss on the cheek too. I glanced at her. She blushed, and backed off. I grinned at her.
Ever had that moment when everything in your life just seems to be perfect?

Oh... Oh, there was that. It wasn't too bad luckily. I instantly forgot about that part directly after I read it. I was too busy thinking about the fact that your electric sword has been destroyed.

I kept it very mild. Wiped it from your memory. RIP electric sword (2016-2018).

Thanks. Self memory-wiping is a skill few possess. I'm lucky to have it. RIP, we need a tribute topic for it.

You're welCON. The LMBEs are pretty strict on that stuff anyways, so it wasn't like I was going to post anything much worse. That you are. CON you wipe other's memories? I shall have to reforge it.

Oh, that's good. I'm not sure, I've never tried to. Yes, you must. It has to be epic reforging though.
I approve of this story.
