Different ages... Different personalities
This is the story of the night in Nicosia, a night we will certainly remember.
It all started in this freaking forum.
The Winter Guardians were trying to arrange a meeting.
After 2 weeks of "mature" conversation and consideration, the Guardians decided on the date the 14th of June.
The new members would attend the meeting too and they would get posters for an up-coming event.
And so... the journey begun
The Limassol Guardians Ramona, Panik, Steve and Margarita met with Zef, Isa, Kyriakos (metalboy) in the Red Bicycle.
They were waiting for Eleni who (AS USUAL) was late.
They had some coffee, the new members introduced themselves to each other until Eleni had arrived.
The people got in the 2 cars (Panik's and Zef's) and were on their way to Starbucks, Ledra.
The 2 drivers got their parking tickets and parked in an underground parking near the cafe.
And so the meeting was about to begin, but who makes a meeting with an empty stomach? ... so they went to starbucks and had some mcdonalds and goody's!(starbucks... to eat mcdonalds?)
The "eaters" were done and so the meeting had begun!
People were introduced to each other and then our great leader Peter had a speech.
Peter told the new members that he wants them to be enthusiastic and remember that some times they will have to make some SACRIFICES for the team.
The members continued discussing various topics.
George had later joined the meeting to give his own information for the event.
The meeting went on until 2. Most cafes/restaurants on the place had closed, but we were still there chatting about all sorts of stuff(at least some of us).
It was time to "destroy it"(ora na to dialisoume) and so we were all ready to leave the place.
"How about we go to rocka rolla now and have our drinks?" Zef
"Yeah, let's have some russians! (russian is the name of a vodka mix)" Kyriakos
And so it happened... George, Manic and Eleni said goodbye. Panik, Zef, Kyriakos, Margarita, Ramona and Steve went to the parking place to get their cars and get the hell out of there. However, what they didn't know was that the parking place closed at 1:30. A security guy was there but he couldn't do shit about the matter.
"The parking place will be open tomorrow at 8 in the morning. You have to come back then" Security guy
Apparently he was too dumb to understand the words "we are not from Nicosia".
Panik called George and he came back to find us.
The only thing George could do was to bring us to a hotel to rent a room for the night and that's what he did.
We went to a small hotel and got two rooms. Then we realised that our money wouldn't be enough for the following day.
We needed what we paid the hotel if we wanted to survive.
Also... our adventure instincs were calling us
"We are 6 friends from different towns all alone in the capital... Why stay here when we can hang around and have an adventure?" Panik
(This was probably the most crazy phrase he said that night)
So, this would be the ultimate "sacrifice" for the band... We had to stay out in the dangerous streets of Nicosia and wait until 8 for the parking place to open.
Our eyes had gazed upon a police vehicle. We quickly ran into them and asked for help.
We told them our story and that we needed to get our cars back.
"We can't really do something about it. However, you can go ask at the "Paphos Gate". They might be able to help you." Policeman
He gave us directions to the so called Paphos Gate and so we had a new destination now.
The place was 500 metres away from the vehicle and the ladies were tired. They sat to rest with Steve, while the other 3 went to this Paphos Gate.
We were approaching and we had realised that many dangerous people were hanging around.
We eventually reached the place
Paphos Gate - Police Station - Entrance only for police Vehicles
was written on a sign
"I sure hope one of you is a police vehicle guys" Zef
"Haha, why do they call it Paphos Gate anyway? I mean... we are in Nicosia right?" Panik
We approached the gate. There was a camera on the wall.
"Shall we go in? What if there's an alarm or something?" Panik
"What if there are sniper shooters?" Zef
"Yeah CS in real life!" Kyriakos
Well we all knew that these things dont happen in Cyprus so we went in.
We were walking in the police station and then found some guys in an office.
We told them about the parking place and stuff.
These guys couldn't help either!
"That parking place is a private property. The police can do nothing about it" Policeman
Our last hope had died with the speech of the policeman
We left and started getting angry
"The security guy couldn't help... The police can't help... Europe can't help!(while seeing a european flag)
.... the fucking camera doesn't help either!" Panik
We went back to find the others
We met at Holiday Inn hotel and sat there to think of what to do...
"A guy told us that we shouldn't stay here... Dangerous people walk this street every night" Ramona
"Let's go to a place with other people. No criminal can harm us there" Margarita
Kyriakos and Panik wanted to go at the parking place thinking they could find a phone number or someone else there to help them.
Zef decided to stay with the girls, so Kyriakos, Panik and Steve started for their way to the parking place. On their way they were talking to each other and
laughing about what happened so far. They couldnt believe it.
Going to the parking place was a challenge they didn't know if it would be ok passing near groups of people so they were careful if someone was behind, so they could just turn left or right and get away from them.
Many times on their way to the parking place they had to run, because of drunken foreigners. They couldn't trust them passing near them.
After trying to hide or run away from people who might harm them they got lost in the small roads of Nicosia.
"Fucking Nicosia, How can this shitty place be a capital" Kyriakos
"You are right man, this place is awful" Panik
