Lan Yu quickly copy and paste the address into her Internet Explorer and wait for the page to load, hands trembling. After a few seconds, the page finally finished loading and facing her is the most recent blog entry, titled:
Goh Lan Yu
She feels a jolt to her head, but she struggles to read on.
'The setting of the story is present day, 2005 as I write this, or whatever era is it when you read this, Singapore...'
As she continues, Lan Yu feels that she's looking at someone's discontinued life from JC to this present moment. This person and this life seems familiar. This person is her, this life is her life!
Head starting to ache...
Suddenly, she has a feeling that someone else is looking at her and her life. Then she realises that someone is also her.
Dizzy...
As Lan Yu looks into her screen, she can feel an infinite number of hers looking at herselves, and the world begin to spins.
Darkness.

At this point of time, this joker, Jiefeng, also know as Intercept Wind, was at his Woodlands HDB in his room listening to 933 and writing his blog/short story. This point of time: 20 Jun 2005, 10.17pm. He is laughing and feeling quite please with himself. Laughing because he thinks the story he writes is damn cock. Feeling quite please because he is finally almost finish with the story.
Actually, he has thought of lots of small and interesting scenes to be put into his story. One of the scenarios is that he wants to tell Lan Yu through MSN that though he's 'God', creator, writer or whatever, he's a slacker. In fact, he's so slack that Lan Yu's world only consists of Lan Yu, the things in her room, and lastly, her room. Lan Yu walks to the door and hesitates. Eventually she summons enough courage and opens the door. Emptiness, darkness, nothing. The living room she was familiar with isn't there...
Aaaaahhhhhh!
Jiefeng thinks that this scene would describe his personality pretty well. However he can't think of how to continue from there, so in the end he has no choice but to use the current 'see his blog' ending. Still, he thinks that the scene is quite good, if only he can include it in the story somehow. Add some 'parallel universes' element, perhaps?
Anyway, he's still laughing at his own cock story, though he feels a bit guilty also. Maybe he's a bit too mean to put Lan Yu through so much torment, since she's his HC 'junior' after all. Well, too bad he can't think of a happier ending.
Finally, he's going to end the story here, so as not to bore his reader to death, if they were not bore to death already. After he clicks the 'Publish Entry' button, he decides to go kitchen to get a drink. However, when he opens the door of his air-conditioned room, he can't believe his eyes. Outside his room, where the living room supposed to be, there is...
Emptiness, darkness, nothing.
