Chapter 4: The Note
A few days after the fight with Nash I didn't go over to see him nor did I talk to him. The things he said kept playing in my mind over and over again, I almost lost it and cried at work. I just wanted things to go back to the way they were but it was to late for that now. I didn't want to burden my friends and family with my troubles so I hide most of the time in my room, eventually the pain becomes to much for me to bare. I write a note to my family and to Nash.
To My Dear Family: I'm sorry to have to do to this to you but I can't stay here and burden you with the weight of my problems. I promise to come back if I'm ever able to, please don't go looking or calling for me for you will get no response. Take care of yourselves in my absence.
To Nash: I'm sorry for what happened but we can never see each other again for I would only make things worse for you...
With my note written I leave it on my bed along with my phone and lapis, placing both objects beside the note. I fade into the shadows and to the Underworld where all demons roam.
From there my life takes a complete 180 on me. I start to drink more in the hopes that my sadness will go away but it doesn't help, I only succeed in getting myself half drunk. I also get into more fights to take my anger and frustration out on other demons, that kinda helps but not really. Since I have no place to stay I'm forced to take shelter in an abandoned shed in the middle of the woods. Where I separate from Embers, and brake down crying again.
"What did I do wrong?!" I cry out but I don't except anyone to answer me.
Embers hugs me trying to calm me down.
"I can't do anything right, all I'm good for is upsetting and hurting the people I care for the most." I cry into Embers's chest like a child.
"None of this is your fault Dumon, Nash just doesn't understand what he's doing." Embers says in a caring tone.
*Embers POV*
Seeing Dumon like this because of Nash accusing him of something he didn't do is pissing me off. I've never seen my human half as upset as he is right now, I want to go back and beat an apology out of him for putting Dumon through so much emotional distress but I can't do that right now. Dumon is unstable enough as it is, I can't afford to risk leaving him alone and have some other demon try and hurt him.
I try to calm him down the best I can and eventually he falls asleep in my arms. I cradle and hold him close, whispering to him that it's not his fault for what happened.
*3rd POV*
In the World of Corruption Nash is still steaming in anger and the other emperors have no real idea why. If they try to talk to him about it he just tells them to leave him alone. They do as they're told and leave him alone. In Barain World Don Thousand and his emperors have noticed that Dumon hasn't come out of his room but they don't think anything of it at first. After a few days Nash cools off realizing what he was accusing Dumon of was stupid and tries to contact him but he doesn't get any response.
Nash calls Don Thousand who tells him that neither he nor the other emperors have seen Dumon and thought that he had snuck off to go see him. Nash makes the excuse that he hasn't been able to see him because of work so he hasn't seen him either. Hours later the note is found along with Dumon's phone and lapis, Don readers the note and has the unfortunate honor of telling the others that Dumon has run away from home being upset about something according to the last feelings his lapis held.
The other emperors bombard Don with questions on what happened to him and if he said in the note where he would be. But Don has no answers for them and sends the note off to Nash, asking him if something had happened between them.
