After the conversation with Namine at the Stadium, I head home.
Lately, for some odd reason, my Soul Dew has been glowing on and off, occasionally becoming very bright. I hope it doesn't disturb the neighborhood... I always think to myself when it happens. I'm still not sure I'd like people in my house just yet...
When I arrive, the Soul Dew is glowing very brightly again, lighting up the deep purple shades I so naïvely put up over the front door window. I quickly unlock the door and rush inside. It glows a little brighter. It must sense my presence...
As I walk over towards it, it stops and grows dim, as if it's running low on energy and can't retain its normal color. ...Maybe not; hmmm... I hope it wasn't glowing too long...
I dress into something a bit less casual, and think about what happened earlier today. Namine seemed so nice, and willing to help me, yet I kind of rushed out her... Why can't my mind just take a break on occasions, so I can relax...?
I sigh.
I hesitate on what I want to do: call and apologize, or finish what I need to get done.
After quite some time debating the pros and cons of each, I decide to go with my gut and call Namine.
I take out my phone and go to my history, select Namine, and press 'talk'.

Rage quitting isn't a good thing, but it is one thing I needed to do. So when my phone rings I frown before answer it, "Hello, Miss Namine LeBeau speaking... How may I help you?"

"Hello...? This is Steven. I just wanted to apologize about earlier. My mind wouldn't stop messing with me and I just couldn't deal with the stress it was causing... I'm very sorry I left so all of a sudden on you — Going back, you asked if I wanted to join you...What did you mean by 'join'...? Did you mean the Network, or... something else?"
Already, my mind is up to its no good, and starts playing the scene back into my head.
I try my best to ignore it.

"Its alright... And I... Believe the Network... Although, now that I think about it... I ever stepped a fine line... Why don't you give Neku a call? Or I'll have him call you?" I'm really not in a good right now... The last thing I need is someone feeling guilty for me!

My mind starts going at it again; this time, thinking specifically about everything Namine fit into our conversation about the Network.
I'm actually starting to get a headache.
"Oh... uhh... That's right; the Network..."
The headache suddenly gets worse.
"Umm... Okay; would you do that for me? Tha——..."
My nerves seem to just, give up, on me; and the next thing I know, I'm on the floor, drifting into unconsciousness, my phone still connected to Namine, lying beside me...

"That what? THAT WHAT?" I pause a moment, mind registering the clatter that had happened. "Shit. Steven! STEVEN!?" No answer is received and a much stronger word slips from my lips before I hang up, cursing up a storm.
"Crap! What the hell do I do? What do I do?!" Panic sets in on me as I pace quickly. "I need to find a way to find him. I need to find him, what if something happened to him?! Oh my gawd, oh my gawd, OH MY FRICKEN GOD!"
What do I do!?!?!?!?!?!?
"Alright, calm down Namine, calm down," I force myself to take deep breaths. "Loosing your head won't help Mr. Stone... You've gotta think clearly... UGH! I should of asked for his address!" Face palming I walk over to wall and bang my head into it repetitively.
"Come on, think, think... OH! I can ask the info guy for help~" And with that I'm racing off to find that dang office I've been spending a heck of a lot of time searching for... Today will hopefully be my lucky day~.
((Well Brandy, she'll get there............ sometime.))

As Steven lies unconscious on the floor, his pet bird, Skarmory, wonders what's going on.
After a bit of thought, it flies off out the window.
((Okay... So a bit of thinking took place... And I've decided to add an additional part to the scene. ^-^' ))

After some time of drifting through the stream of unconsciousness, I come to; dazed, head throbbing.
Wha--What just happened? I think to myself...
You fell unconscious, a voice inside my head said. I look around as if someone had said something aloud. Metagross was staring at me with contented eyes. Not sure what caused it, but you were on the phone with Namine, and then fell to the ground. -- Skarmory flew off out the window, and hasn't yet returned; most likely looking for help.
"Oh," I mutter, forgetting I didn't have to say it aloud.
Our best bet would be to get you out of the house. You're constantly here; usually contemplating. Maybe that's what caused it. Thinking a little too much.
But I couldn't help it this time, for some reason... I pause and then rethink what I should do, Okay. Let's go... But where to start first?
I'm not quite sure. Even I cannot foresee what other's intentions are.
"Well then, let's just take a walk."
Or rather, you take a walk. What do you think people would think about me walking, or floating, around?
"You're right, as always."
I am not always right. But I do think often about my options, just as you do.
I leave, unsure where to go, and what to do.
