Rendezvous With Time

They both ran as fast as they could, but it didn't seem like it was fast enough. The pack was slowly gaining on them, and they didn't have much time left before the gap between the predator and the prey would disappear. They needed to do something....something desperate...

Patrick and Ibis planned today to be a perfect outing. For the last 6 months, they had seen each other maybe three or four times each month...that is, if they were lucky...

Patrick was the lead singer of a band called "The Agony of Victory". They had just gotten themselves a record deal, after months and months of agonizing tours to promote their first demo. After their last tour date in Detroit, they were discovered by Columbia Records, and negotiated a contract that would give Patricks' band the chance to record their debut album. In less than a week, the band would compile all of their songs together, along with all the lyrics that could potentially become a song, so that they could record it in the studio that has been given to them for a specified amount of time. Things were going no where but up for Patrick.

Ibis (pronounced E-Bees) just graduated from Michigan State University two years ago with a Masters degree in Virology and Immunology, and currently works for a scientific research center that identifies viruses and their mutations and figures out a way to reverse their affect on humans, thus destroying the virus. Recently, there have been a new wave of mutated/adapted viruses giving Ibis and her colleagues a lot to work on.

Today though....today was different. Both Patrick and Ibis took a week off from the band, and work, to spend some time with each other. It didn't even seem like the two were married. The 'flame' of the marriage was fading fast, with the amount of time they spent with each other, but they both hoped, especially Ibis, that this week would rekindle that flame.

Who would have known that this day would test their love for each other, to the very limit...


OOC: It isn't open yet...after I get to the actual plot, which should be within the next post. Do NOT, I repeat DO NOT post in here without t-gramming me to be invited. This is an invite-only RP.
