Kali stared at the row of syringes, reading each carefully, and surveying her options. White Wizard...Samurai...Morph...Shadowmancer...Psychotic...Manipulator.
What the hell kind of power was psychotic? Was she gonna end up like Spaz over there if she took it... She snickered at the thought then looked at the first. She really had no idea in hell what a White Wizard was to tell the truth. Samurai...those guys were pretty cool, and she DID have a sword she had no idea how to use....but Morph....that could mean morphing...but into what , she didn't know. Shadowmancer, well that was like a shadow magey thingy, right? Bah, she had no idea what a Shadowmancer was... Manipulator...manipulator of what? Wow, they weren't very specific were they...
So far, she had ruled out White Wizard and Shadowmancer, and was slowly ruling out Samurai against her brain's wishes. Curiosity was pulling her now. Morph...what did that mean...and Psychotic, what the hell was that? She was torn, and bit her lip. Her curiosity had gotten her into this mess. She couldn't listen to it now. This would be much easier if she knew what the ******** everything was! She ran her fingers through her fiery locks, sighing.
"The hell is a W-18F file form...and where can I get one...it'd be damn useful right about now." She muttered under her breath, staring at the rack.

Yellow matter custard dripping from a dead dog's eye.
Twitch.
I am the eggman.
Twitch.
They are the eggmen.
Twitch.
"I AM THE WALRUS!!" Spaz shouted, his eyes glazed over and spittle flying from his lips, "GOO GOO G'JOOB!!"
Grabbing a random syringe--the one labled Monk--Spaz stabbed it into his side through his shirt and injected the contents, then followed with the black shot. Tossing the vials aside, he dropped to one knee and clutched his head as his body twitched convulsively.
"I am he as you are he, as you are me and we are all together." He droned, teeth clenched.

"Oh god! Spa-" She was about to go over to see if he was okay, but decided against it. Spaz was nuts...twitching and drooling on the floor...she decided it would be safer over here. But back to her decision! Which, sucked because she had been dragged brutally out of her train of thought by Spaz's little outburst. Shaking her head she looked back at the cart, chewing her lip. She would have to decide fast...

He felt...a sudden calm wash over him...
All his anxiety, his random images, flashes of pop-culture and other utter distractions...they soon seemed to organize themselves...
What the hell?
He felt ******** great! All the mindless chatter...all the...the...brainfarting...
It was gone.
In awe, he looked with new perspective at his surroundings....in truth, he hadn't changed much. He was still awesome ol' Spaz...but this Monk thing...it made him feel much more useful.
Wow.

Serenity.
It had always just been a word to Spaz, one that sounded kinda like spaghetti. But now, he understood. His mind was now tranquil, like a grassy field, instead of the seething maelstrom of thoughts it had been before. True, stray thoughts did drift through, like the occasional thunderstorm, but Spaz could just push them aside now and ignore them.
Look at him, making poetic comparisons. That was new. In fact, he felt like tracing patterns in some sand and writing a haiku about grass and flowing water.
Very Zen.
"Hey Kali, look!" Spaz exclaimed, rising to his feet. "Look, my brain is working! Smooothe..." He made a wavy motion with his hand.
Well, kinda Zen.

"Oh my gosh, alert the media!" She joked, attempting a smile as she stared at the cart, stopping only for a second to look at Spaz.
Eenie...
Meenie...
Minie...
Mo.
She reached out her hand and grabbed the Syringe labelled Manipulator. Pulling up her sleeve she pushed it into her arm and injected it, hissing in pain as the chemicals brushed her muscles. She dropped the needle to the floor, clutching her arm because it hurt like a freaking b***h. She had never liked needles in the first place...

The pain lasted for a few moments, then disappeared. Relapses came and went in waves...but it was nothing that serious. To tell the truth, she really didn't feel that differently...
Well, it was time for the black shot...

She shook her arm then looked over at Spaz. He really did look calm...

Something looked different about her to Spaz...where her old arm socket was...a light fuscia wisp now trailed out...like the tail end of a ghost.
Was it his imagination? There weren't any fingers or anything, but it did seem like she had some kind of spectre-like attachment there.

((Aww, man. Which was MY right job?))
Well that was interesting. What was the deal with that arm? He'd never really paid attention before, but now it made him wonder. Phantom limbs he'd heard of, but that was just sensations, right? This was... well, it was like she had a real phantom arm. Eh, best not to think about it. Weird stuff seemed to be happening a lot lately. He was wearing a time traveling boot, for god's sake.
"Use the black shot too, Kali. It'll heal ya." Speaking of which, the cut on Spaz's back and the headache he'd had before were totally gone. Plus, he felt like he'd just had a good night's sleep. That was actually pretty damn amazing, if you thought about it.
"Hey computer, can we get a couple of those black ones to go?" Couldn't hurt to ask...

[You picked it. Hence, the serenity, functionality and level up.]
The computer gave two broken chuckles.
Ha. Ha. No, you cannot. Are you both ready to proceed to further preparations?

"I is, readier than a mass-murderer at a chainsaw convention." Spaz replied with a grin, enjoying his newfound clarity of mind. He still kept his mannerisms and odd speech patterns though; old habits were hard to break.

"Well duh." She put her hand on her hip after taking the second shot, staring into the blackness of the room. "And hurry up all ready, geeze..." She picked up all of the stuff, then stood, and waited.

The holoscreen continued.
First, you are all to recieve a "biocodec". This is a holoscreen device that can either be carried or implanted into your body. The screen is tuned in with your body's particualr life essence, and will act as a reference and..."scorecard" for your statistics, progress, and skills as you journey on.
Furthermore, Kali will recieve one Dagger and cotton clothing, whereas Spaz will receive heavy clothing.
I'll also point out that it will be impossible to wield that shotgun anymore, Spaz. Only Kali may equip that, seeing as how you shall fight with your hands from now on. You may employ it when need be, but bear in mind that it will no longer be extremely effective.
May I deliver these items now?

"Sure, knock yourself out." Spaz replied to the computer... computeress..., a little annoyed that he had to give up his new toy so soon. He pulled the strap off his shoulder and offered the boomstick to Kali. "Here, you're probably better with it than me anyway."
