Line 1:
It started about three weeks ago. I was a big Nintendo fan, and so were my friends. We each had 3DS systems, and would StreetPass each other each morning on our way to school via the most crowded bus in North America. I would usually get about eight people on at a time, because not too many people even brought their systems to High School, they might get lost or stolen.
Line 5:
I kind of wish it had been. Anyways, we were riding to school, and chatting about the new hit game "Fire Emblem Awakening". This was an incredibly well designed game where you played as a master tactician in the Fire Emblem universe, and helped a Prince named Chrom make the right decisions as he defended his kingdom and conquered various forts to the west. If you paired units together with others, they could build "Support Relationships" eventually leading to marriage, each time executed through a brief exchange of dialogue.

Her name was Tharja, and she was a dark mage who openly stalked the Avatar, cursing people who interfered in their interactions. She would constantly make up excuses to be in their presence, but overall I felt it was kind of cute, even if she was supposed to be the creepy character. She had the whole "Evil Mage" act going, but she was a decent character.
Eager to get the "Morgan" character, I allowed her to marry the Avatar, causing a brief confession screen to pop up showing her thrust into the
The next day, I StreetPassed some new guy on the way to the bus stop. His mii was a blank, default male with the name "Tharja" and a black shirt. I figured it was a joke or a fanboy, though I was suspicious at his greeting. The smiley little mii would come to mine in the StreetPass mii plaza and say "I found you". I ignored it and went on to Awakening, where I found that not surprisingly, "Tharja" had appeared on the map.
Line 15:
I looked over his units and found only his Avatar, the blank Default male with the white hair and plain expression. The only unit was the male Avatar, once again named Tharja and armed with a single tome labeled "Love". When I challenged him I got the quote "I found you". Weirded out, I dispatched the guy in an instant and decided to move on. Things got stranger.
The following morning I found "Tharja again in my neighborhood, this time with his Unit and Mine. He had defeated and recruited my character, and the two were each using tomes labeled "Love". I had been turned from a Grandmaster class to a sorcerer, as had his unit. I challenged him again, and got the quote "Let me love you". I visited the mii plaza and got the
I showed it to the guys on the bus, because this whole business was starting to creep me out. They shrugged it off, and suggested I try to keep an eye out for anybody with a system. I played through a little more, my visits with "Tharja" became more frequent with the quotes changing from "Let me love you" to "Where do you go"? I eventually got used to his visits, even starting to enjoy them, they were sort of funny.
I only got freaked out when I got a SwapNote from the guy, who it seemed had gotten my number somehow. It read "Please
This led to me chatting with and eventually developing a bit of a crush on a girl named "Chloe". I played the game less, and began to see her more, until I got a little blinking blue light on my 3DS.
I opened the SwapNote and saw a photograph taken from one end of my bus of Chloe and I chatting. I had no idea where the photo had been taken, but
"Dude, I think you should give Chloe a call,
I called her up and got her parents, who told me some strange guy, looking to be about 16ish, same as me, had apparently followed her around downtown the previous day before finding her in private and beating her, with a large hoodie pulled over his head and strung to hide his face. There was no explanation for the guy, only that he had escaped into the crowd without a trace. She had survived, but they said her injuries were serious and it looked like somebody had really messed up her bones. I got really concerned, and asked if I could talk to her but was greeted by a
It seemed I would not be able to go see her. I headed down to the plaza to get her a card and some flowers, anything to help show we were sorry for her, but as I walked out of the shop I got a little green light from my 3DS, which I had been using for MP3. I opened SwapNote to find Tharja, who I
The next page of the note read "You backed out. Good night". With that, my system stalled for a minute, as if lagging before the screens went black. It had been bricked, and even when I tried to view the back-ups from my SD card I found nothing. I remembered exactly what the loon had said, and then I remembered the confession quote:
"I
I decided to sell my game, and I
