Chapter 375: Electric Warrior

I know that it's been a while, but work has been really busy. None of that really matters. I just had to get this off my chest and out in the world. One of my really dear friends and a great guy was mugged and roughed up pretty bad recently on his way home from a friends house and I feel really helpless about the whole thing. On top of that one of our friends was talking to him on his cell phone (the only thing they didn't take) at the time and she had to hear it and had no idea what was going on. Sometimes things just don't make any sense.
