Welcome to Gaia! ::

~smoke begins to come from, seemingly, nowhere. The smoke becomes a heavy smog, and then a shadow moves out of the smog. The shadow then distorts itself and morphs into the man you see now. You can't tell what he looks like, becaus he is wearing a hooded robe and a mask. He says something which you can hardly make out. Then you realize what he said~

"76"

~He then removes his mask to reveal a human face, that looks normal except for one thing. On his face, is a wicked grin. He then places the mask back on his face, and steps back into the smog.The smoke begins to disappear, but you can still see him. He turns and faces you, while the smog begins to move about him. He stares into your eyes the entire time, almost like he is staring into your soul. You can't seem to move your eyes away. The smog consumes him, and you can hear laughter. Not the normal kind of laughter, either. The psychotic laughter that can pierce into the very depths of your mind and embed itself into you for an eternity. The smog begins to vanish, and finally when it does, there is no trace of the masked man. The only trace that he ever appeared, is the laughter that still echoes throughout your body.
Then you realize that you can move again, and you try to continue on, even though you can never forget his green-eyed stare. It almost looked like he was saying "Help Me." You shrug it off and walk away to carry on your battle of the genders.~
