The Story So Far...

You are:

Serenity Dancer! The graceful powerhouse of the Serenity Arts, living up to the dream of dancing the night away with her friends instead of being the career dead-ended R- R...

… Well, your real name escapes you right now, for some reason. Your head is feeling weirdly fuzzy in general at the moment, in fact. That's not a good sign, like, at all.

You know who you are, and you know your mission - to kick the ass of any Desire who dares cross your path! But everything else is kinda... liquid... right now. You scrunch up your face and try to think through the haze, but all you remember is some lady with star-shaped sunglasses, and a few distant notes of a strange melody...

"God dammnit Lauren," you mutter as you try to soothe your headache with your hand. All of this is absolutely your leader's fault somehow. You know it was, even if you don't remember how.

You'll have to get her back for that later.

For now... Where the heck are you?

Behind you, the white barrier of a Serenity Seal shimmers. Uh. Hm. Good, that's good to see if there's an active Desire here somewhere. But where's the rest of your team? And where's the Desire herself? All you see in front of you is a hallway, a closed door at the end. Kinda eerie, really.

Okay, you've got a few choices here. Obviously, choice number 1 is you can turn around and head back out through the seal. You've clearly been compromised somehow, and as much as that hurts your pride, maybe you should retreat and work that out before you do something reckless.

Choice number 2 is try to find your teammates, of course. Even if they've been turned into enemy minions, you can probably squeeze some info out of them before you kick them into lala-land.

Choice number 3 is seek out the Desire - just shoot straight for the end zone and try to get lucky. You think you're strong enough to pull that off, but it's definitely risky.

Or you could get creative. Maybe try to find a way to restore your memory, or locate hostages... You're a Serenity, and no one's around to tell you what to do! Be your own boss, Dancer! Today might be the day you prove yourself to everyone! Or, uh... Well, no need to think about the opposite, really. Confidence! That's the key to moving on.

(Choosing your Goal as Dancer will determine how you go about the next section - choose wisely!
