Embers of Eternity (Book 8 of the Keyblade Legends Rainimator Fanfic Series)

Chapter 34: Pika! No!

Amman's POV

"Come on Pika!" I said. "You've been up there for the past hour and a half!"

"It's what the Overseer wants," he reminded me.

"I know!" I replied. "But I want to talk to you!"

Pika glared at me. "You have got to be kidding me," he said.

"What?!" I asked.

"Do you not care about our master?" Pika asked me, climbing down so we were on the same platform.

"The Overseer? Moonlark? Who cares about them!" I asked. "We don't need some dictator keeping us in check. We're here for the chaos! We'll keep the conflict going! It's great!"

"Is this all about you Amman?" Pika asked. "Are you really that selfish?!"

I was shocked by this accusation.

"No!" I replied. "I'm not being selfish! This is for you also, Pika! Ever since Ben. T. died, I wanted to-"

"See what I mean?!" Pika yelled, not even letting me finish. "You think everything is about you!"

"That's not true!" I shouted. "Take that all back right now!'

 "Just admit it, Amman!" Pika snapped. "You're selfish, just admit it already!"

"SHUT UP!" I screamed and without thinking, I swung my iron sword.

Blood splattered everywhere from Pika's stomach.

Pika looked down, his face full of surprise.

Then he lifted his head up, eyes full of shock.

His mouth moved, as if he wanted to say something, but no words came out.

Horrified, I stared at Pika as he went completely limp.

"PIKA!" I screamed in despair. "NO!"

I dropped the sword and Pika's body crashed onto the ground.

I stared at the blood pouring from my friend as I realized, with tears in my eyes, that I just killed another friend forever.

Well, I guess that this is what you deserve after trying to disobey me. The Overseer spoke in my mind.

"SHUT UP, STUPID!" I screamed.
