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

Chapter 94: Truth and Flashbacks

Kyle's POV

"I'm worried about you! I really think you need to see Kaylee and tell her the truth! You're not okay right now, and it'll only get worse if you don't get help!"

"I said I'm fine! I don't need help! So just leave me alone!"

"That wraps up our discussion," Kaylee said, smiling. "Thank you for coming."

I nodded, getting up from my seat. "Thank you," I said, my mouth completely dry.

I handed her the twenty-five dollars I owed her and started to head outside.

"Kyle,"

I turned around.

"You're a bright kid," Kaylee told me. "And my office is always open for you if you need to vent out your frustrations." She then smiled. "I'm glad you stopped by today."

I nodded, not trusting myself to speak.

I stepped outside, out of the warmth of a fire and into the coldness of a gloomy day.

My phone buzzed and I pulled out the gray phone and read the message.

Reaper: How was the therapy session?

I grinned. I didn't expect Razer to text me, especially with his new job of reaping souls.

Quickly, I texted a response back.

RoadRunner: Good, you busy?

Reaper: Nah, I'm free. Want to chat?

RoadRunner: Sure, see you in ten minutes

Reaper: Coolio

It only took me about three minutes to locate Razer.

He had that creepy face covering on, and his new scythe was on his back, wickedly sharp.

I knew that he must've finished his job, and I wondered who's soul he reaped this time.

"Sorry," he said, and his outfit changed so he had a bandana over his mouth and his scythe turned into dual katanas.

"So," I said. "Who was the unfortunate soul this time?"

"A pig who tried to escape the Underworld," Razer replied. "I dealt with him fairly quickly."

It didn't take a big brain to realize that the Undead Prince was also the Reaper.

I was just glad that he was my friend.

"How's Herobrine and Null?" I asked, feeling a bit awkward asking about them.

The Undead Prince just shrugged. "They're fine," he said. "I mean... we're not on the best terms anymore. I mean... Meeps and I... we were closer when it was just the four of us."

[Flashback]

Razer's POV

"So," Meeps said. "What's the plan? Wait, do we even have a plan?!"

The three of us turned to stare at our leader.

Herobrine stood there, pondering over Meeps' question for a few minutes.

"Well... we could..." Herobrine stuttered. "First we... umm... hmmm... we... uh..."

"That's it," Meeps deadpanned. "We're gonna die."

"Don't worry!" Herobrine said. "I have a plan!"

"Yup," I agreed. "We're gonna die."

Herobrine began to scribble something on a piece of paper. 

After a few moments, he passed the paper to us and we read it.

We gett sumthing yu wanting. Surnder now or you will dead. PS: Trie to fiyte us and you will dead too.

"Wow boss!" Meeps said awkwardly. "I didn't know you could write so well!"

Meanwhile Null was studying the paper, trying to figure out what it meant.

"Of course I can!" He snapped. "I never went to school anyways!"

"Oh God..." I said under my breath, exchanging a look with Meeps.

[End of flashback]

Kyle's POV

Razer was smiling fondly, as if he remembered the memories he had.

Something was bothering me however.

"Hey Razer?" I asked.

The young man looked up.

"Do you hate me?" I asked. "For what I did to you?"

Razer began to tug at his sleeve. 

"No, I don't hate you," he finally said. "Trust me; when I first saw you... I saw the same person I was. Somebody struggling to fit in, not belonging anywhere."

I flinched as my friend continued.

"But it still hurts," he said. "To look at Alex and remembering fire and the smoke, you know what I mean? I hate him so much, and I don't think I'll ever forgive him for destroying what could have been."

And I could see it in his eyes. The memory of fire, the bodies turning into ashes... Razer screaming...

And Alex laughing... as he held a flint and steel in his hand.

Razer is still bitter about this.

He might still try to get his revenge...

He's the Reaper now, who knows what he can do?

All of a sudden, I felt scared.

Not for Alex, but for Razer.

Yoooooooo!

I just figured out how I can bring Meeps back despite her data being completely destroyed! 

If you want Meeps to return say yes.

And I need ppl to reply to this.
