"Pimple face?" I may not have had the most perfect skin, but I got more girls than you," retorted Kevin.

"Yeah, sure you did, Kevin. But that's only because my girlfriends stayed with me longer than a week," said Brian.

"They only stayed with you longer than a week because they only saw you once a day, after a few weeks, they couldn't stand the sight of you."

"Sure whatever. What was that gay award you won? Best look? What the hell is that?" asked Brian.

"It means I have the best style."

"Best style my @$$. You wore a skirt on national television. Real style buddy."

"Well, Jenny seemed to like my style."

"Jenny, why do you always have to bring up Jenny?"

"You're just mad because she liked me better than you," said Kevin.

"She did not. You just wanted to show me up, so you stole my girlfriend."

"I didn't steal her, she came of her own free will. She obviously has good taste, because she choose me over you," said Kevin.

"Taste? That girl must have had no taste, because if she did, she would have chosen me," said Brian.

"Yeah, sure Brian. She was looking for someone older and more sophisticated, like me, not basketball-playing pain in the @$$."

"More sophisticated? What dream world are you living in? In high school, you were a dumb jock. You were into cheerleaders, your football buddies, and your precious, precious game."

"The only club you were in was the glee club. That's an appealing trait to a mature woman."

"Well, I'm glad I was in the glee club. I at least have some solos."

"So, where should we go?" asked AJ. The three of them were standing back in the hallway with the desk in the 'Souls Wing' of the End of the World.

"Let's split up," said Sebrena. "I'll go to Soul Mates Anonymous, because, if I to the Lost Souls of Witches Room, I may run into some old friends, get to talking, and then we won't be leaving for an extra hour or so."

"Oh, but I wanted to go to Soul Mates Anonymous," said AJ. "I mean, if there are women there without soul mates, I can lie."

"Fine, you can come, that is if Nick doesn't mind," said Sebrena.

"It's fine. I'll head to the Lost Souls Section. But if I find Serafina, how will I be able to tell you?"

"Umm . . . we'll meet back here in an hour, if you can't find her. If you aren't here, we'll assume that you either found her or you're dead," said Sebrena.

"That's a . . . comforting thought," said Nick. Sebrena and AJ started to walk down the hallway to the SMA.

"So . . ." started AJ. "What do you think we'll find in there?"

"I don't know, maybe someone saying 'Hello, my name is Bob, and I have a soul mate'," replied Sebrena.

"Well, this is it. Let's see what's behind Door Number One," said AJ, opening the door. The room it opened into was huge, filled with people sitting in chairs. Up on a stage stood a man with a microphone. Sebrena and AJ moved to one side, and stood in the back. AJ began to flip through a program.

"Would anyone like to tell us why they're here?" asked the man onstage.

"I would," said a man in the crowd, standing up.

"Well, tell us your name, and us why you're here."

"Hello, my name is Bob, and I have a soul mate," he said. Sebrena looked shocked and whispered to AJ.

"I don't think we'll find Serafina in here. Let's check one of the other rooms."

"But after the seminar, there's going to be complementary champagne!"

"Look, we don't have time to sit through the seminar. We have to find Serafina's soul. That was the point of coming here. If we find her, maybe I'll bring you back someday. Come on, let's go."

"But . . . complementary champagne!" whined AJ. "And finger foods!"

"Look, we'll come back later. Right now, we have to go." Sebrena grabbed AJ's arm and pulled him into one of the adjoining rooms.

"According to the pamphlet, this is the Soul Mates Only room. Spirits of couples come here to chat with other couples. Only couples that are soul mates are allowed to enter. Basically, it's a gossip room," explained AJ.

"Well, let's hope they let down their security, because otherwise . . ." Sebrena shivered. "I don't want to think about it. I don't think Serafina's going to be in here. Let's check out the next room."

"Oh, there's finger foods in here too!"

"You have a one track mind don't you?" asked Sebrena, pulling AJ out of the room, through the large seminar room, and into another room. "What is this room?"

"Maybe I could read it if I didn't have such an empty stomach," said AJ.

"Oh, stop whining and tell me what the room is," said Sebrena, getting frustrated. AJ stubbornly shook his head. "Look, there's a snack table over there, and complementary champagne. If you tell me what the room is, I'll go look for Serafina, and you can eat, alright?"

"I'll agree to that. This is . . . the Soul-Mate-Less room. All the spirits in here are in desperate need for a soul mate. So part of their subconscious drifts in here, hoping to find their soul mate. I think I like this room," said AJ, looking up from the pamphlet. "I can eat a little, mingle a little . . ."

Sebrena shook her head in disgust, and walked away, leaving AJ at the refreshment table with several women.

Let's see. Serafina . . . dum dee dum dee dum . . . I don't see her anywhere, and this is the last room in the SMA. She must not be here. I better tell AJ. What is he doing now? thought Sebrena, looking over to where AJ was. He was drinking champagne and talking to a woman that was twice his age. All of a sudden, the woman got up, and walked away, a disgusted look on her face.

Sebrena began to quietly laugh, but AJ heard it, and turned towards her.

"What'd I say?"
