A FAMILIAR SITUATION
Suddenly it's bright, I take in my surroundings. That gorilla sits up on the top of the partially constructed Empire building with the woman I love (I know I love her because when I move near her, hearts appear), I must save her! I begin my climb up the building, when a barrel comes my way; I would jump, but I'm halted by a sense of déjà vu. There's no way something as specific as this happened more than once in my life... what life? Did I have a life? I'm a carpenter right? I think I'm a carpenter, don't remember any training... anything outside of this situation really, who even is that woman? Who's the-
The barrel collides with me and I feel my life drain, I fall back, a halo hovers above my head as it all goes dark. I wish I knew what was going on.
