Note: This is a dramatization. I did not actually feel this kind of intensity with emotions. I felt that it would be a good writing exercise to write it as if it were so.

Today, I thought, would just be another ordinary day, but oh was i gravely mistaken, as some unexpected events have occurred to make this day deviate from its normal path.
This morning, I woke up around the usual time, and I promptly began my quotidian routine that I perform every morning: brushing my teeth, eating breakfast, showering, and surfing TL for a while. The day progressed normally, like any one of my normal summer days would, as I procrastinated from doing my summer homework by playing console video games, followed by watching the Daily Show and the Colbert Report back to back.
Finally, night arrived, and this was when fate struck another blow at me. I was watching some SC2 streams when my cousin messaged me and asked me to play a little BW. Being someone who enjoys a nice, fun game of BW, I gladly accept my cousin's invitation to a game. I went to get my BW disc from my dektop (which was where I usually play it on, but it is now devoid of internet, so now I must use my laptop to play.), but when I opened the CD tray, I could not believe what I saw.
Nothing! I saw no trace of a BW disc in the CD tray.
"My word!" I said with a surprised look on my face, "My disc is not here! Where could it have possibly gone?!"
Thus, I began frantically searching my desk, hoping that I put it there and forgot, but to no avail. I expanded my search to the rest of my room, searching even my laptop, hoping i put it there by mistake, but again to no avail.
Then, a random, but distrustful thought entered my mind, "My parents! Of course! They believe that I am addicted to the game (Which I'm not...i go on iccup once a week for like 2 hours at most), so they took the disc away and left me to suffer!" The more I thought this evil thought, the stronger its presence became in my mind. Eventually, I confronted my parents on this grave matter. Unfortunately, they did nothing with the disc, and my search continued.
Eventually, I gave up my search for my beloved BW disc, and sat down on my bed. I gave one long sigh, and then looked up to my ceiling.
"Why have the Gods torn me apart from my BW disc?! What foul sin did I commit to deserve such a cruel fate? If you are listening to me right now, I promise you Gods that I will break this fate! I will continue searching across the land until I find my disc! I will be reunited with my disc, even if I have to bring you Gods down myself!"
Then, I donned my armor, and from my closet, I took out my blades, ready to begin my quest to take down the Gods in order to retrieve my beloved brood war disc.
Now I stand in the realm of the Gods as I am blogging about this. I can't return to the earth world until my mission is complete.

tl;dr: I lost my broodwar disk. I've searched everywhere I thought it could be, and I can't find it. Now I'm sad. =(

If you download the installer from battle.net and burn it to a disc and draw a lurker on the disc your problems will be solved.
