It was just another normal late Saturday afternoon. Marc sat in front of his computer, grinding away and trying to level up in World of Warcraft. Across from him, sitting at her own computer was his girlfriend Ashley, who was also grinding away at the same game. Occasionally, Ashley would growl and let out a little curse when a swarm of monsters would attack her. Of course, Marc would be right there to have her back and keep her character alive.

“You know,” Marc said, “maybe we should find another area to play. You know, one that you wont constantly get your character raped.”

“No,” said Ashley as she glanced at her boyfriend from behind her glasses with her piercing green eyes. “This area is perfect. The monsters are just the right level to allow me to level up even faster for the dungeon raid tonight.”

“Alright,” Marc said with a sigh and brushed his shaggy brown hair out of his face. He knew better than to argue with her when she was as determined like she was. Plus, he knew that tonight’s raid was an important one. Everyone in their guild had spent nearly a month prepping for it, and if they couldn’t pull it off… Well, Marc didn’t want to think about how some of his guild mates might take it.
