In Sickness and Despair pt.7
(The delay was reeeeeeal, sorry guys.) After about two weeks Dune thought about his brother, and if he'll recover. After school he found his friends and asked "You sure Niko'll recover?" Dune asked the group curiously.
Hey, we beat up the guy causing it in a supernatural world. I think we've done as much as we can. We just gotta wait. Morikazu leans against a wall, crossing his arms.
"I suppose..." Dune sighs, "Won't a sudden recovery be suspicious? Like, wouldn't people think some weird shit is going down?"
A sudden recovery is a sudden recovery. There ain't any problem with that. Ya know how when you get sick, you're suddenly much better one day? You could just play it off as that.
"But it's still pretty fucking suspicious." "Most people don't up and recover near instantly from something seemingly fatal." "You won't find a doctorate on me though." Eito shrugs and drinks some soda.
"I agree with Eito. But so the thing is. When someone gets ill it's our job to go to the phone and defeat the demon making him sick." Dune says piecing it all together. "I guess we're doctors now..." Dune jokes "But last night I had this weird dream..."
"Oh boy..." Eito pulls two other soda cans and chucks them at Dune and Morikazu. "Feel free to tell us."
Dune grabs the soda. "I don't remember it all but I remember... I was in a blue hospital room. There was a strange long nosed man. He told me, I saved one from himself."
"That sounds...Interesting..." Eito takes a moment to process it before shrugging. "Well, it's not too strange considering our circumstances..."
"Tomorrow is the day of Niko's scheduled death. I suppose we just have to wait. I mean, there might be some shit going down, but that's besides the point." Dune sighs, clearly anticipating the next day, hoping his brother will live through the circumstances.
"Well, no matter what, we did all we could." Eito shrugs as he leans back onto a wall. "We can only hope for the best." "But you know..."
"Hmm?" Dune asks curious to listen to his friend.
"Since it seems we're gonna stick together for now, we can't just be no name nobodies!" Eito seems to be getting very excited. "We need a team name!"
"Oh shit, you're right!" Dune says thinking "How about. Oh damn this is tough.." Dune seems to not be able to think of one.
"The Saviours? No, too preachy..." "The Phantom Doctors? No, that's just plain stupid..." "Uh..." Eito flutters his eyes as he tries to think of a name. "Damnit."
"Let's sleep on it." Dune says still thinking.
"Sure." Eito sighs and goes back to drinking his soda.
Due heads back home and gets some sleep
Eito heads home and marathons some trashy anime series before going to bed.
The next day an assembly is held at the gym of the school. There in the gym, Niko is standing tall. "Holy shit. it worked." Dune says quietly
"It did..." Eito smirks as he sees the result of their work. Considering everything, he felt he was allowed to be a little smug. "We are amazing."
Niko starts speaking. "I apologize for the uproar. As the head of the student council. I have made choices I regret." Niko continues as Dune thinks to himself. "I have also committed multiple crimes. With no halt either, I wholeheartedly apolo--" Niko gets cut off as he grabs where his heart would be as a black ooze drips from his face. He eventually appears to look up as he speaks with this, disgusting look. "Dune. Hel--" Niko drops down as students start running and panicking. Dune just has a blank look on his face.
D-dammit... Morikazu makes his way towards Dune, shoving some of the panicked students out of the way to get a better view of Niko. Musta been his Shadow not keeping his word. Or someone else. Or... Gah! We gotta check that other place out! He pulls out his phone, looking wildly for a more secluded place.
Dune pulls out his phone as well, once trying to enter the keywords the nav says "This destination does not exist anymore. Shadow eliminated." Dune panics. "What the effing hell!?!?" He yells trying again and again as it keeps saying that message.
So... it's over then. Morikazu grits his teeth and puts his phone away. I ain't exactly trustin' that Shadow, but someone like me mighta went in and did it intentionally... Gah, we ain't got any idea who, though! With a growl, he begins to walk away, hands stuffed into his pockets.
Even in these circumstances Dune listens during class. After school Dune gets called to the office. A minute later Dun is outside with tears running down his eyes.
Eito is pacing around, throwing his backpack to the ground in rage. "RAAAGH!" He stomps the ground. "I KNEW IT!I SAID NOT TO ATTACK HIM BECAUSE IT COULD KILL HIM!" "GOD FUCKING DAMNIT!"
"It's no use raging about it now. He's dead. That's that." Dune says "Did we do something wrong?"
"I don't know!" Eito grabs his book bag again and takes a couple moments to calm down. "Either way, what happened in there?"
"They told me his death is indeed confirmed, and that it was a heart attack."
"Fuck me..." Eito sighs and puts his hand on his face. "What now?"
"People might think I killed him.. But he died of a heart attack, is that normal?" OOC: I'm sorry, tomorrow i'll be on longer, I need to go. sry.
Fine by me, I need to sleep.
