Chapter 21.5: Grayson, I Will be Myself

              I was sitting in my room thinking about a lot of things. I had recently went to a summer camp and discovered a person didn't have to be defined by binary rules. I had talked to Rhyme about this as well. She agreed with me on this. I told her I preferred to use they/them as my pronouns. She was pleased with me for telling her what pronouns I preferred. Then, the whole realm fights happened where I meet up with Jesa. She saved me, and I came out to her. She was very grateful and thanked me. Anyway, Rhyme then helped me come up with a name that I would be comformtable with. We had a board, an earse, and some markers.

"Alright, what about Persephone?" she asked she drew the name on the board.

"I don't want the main of someone who was kidnapped and forced to stay some place for half of their life" I answered her.

She quickly earsed the board and drew another name. I wonder if she had a list of names.

"What about Homura?" she asked as she finished the name.

"No...." I replied concerned.

How did she even think of that name? Where did that name come from? Rhyme earsed the name and went back to the board. She snapped her fingers and wrote something down.

"What about G?!" she said proudly.

This is going to be a long day. It was aboubt time for lunch when had gotten half way through the freaken list she made. Rhyme looked tired and sat down in a chair. I looked at her list and went over the names she had selected. None of these were good... What is her fascination with gods and goddess? Wait a minute, why does she have my family name on this sheet? I looked at my name and saw Grayson. That... sounds amazing. It sounds strong, and it's between the colors black and white on the spectrum!

"Grayson" I said to myself.

Yes, this is it! Rhyme looked up at me curiously.

She titled her head, "Is that the name you want?"

I nodded at her excitedly. She squealed in delight as she hugged me. Oh, this is great! I then thought about my friends. Would they still be my friends after I told them who I really was? Rhyme noticed I was quiet.

"Hey, if they are your friends, then they will definitely listened to you and accept you" she reassured me.

I nodded at her. She's right. My friends are pretty open minded. I was about to head out and help them, but I saw my pexrodiot wand glow a bit. I wonder what was going on. I just checked on my realm. Is something going on? I rushed out of the room while Rhyme slept on the ground. I walked to the commons and found Preselzee fighting off someone in a black coat! Oh my, who is he? Whoever he was, he was strong. He drew back his keyblade and shattered Preselzee's gem lance! She quickly grabs her gem as he kicks her away! Preselzee was knocked to a wall as she held her stomach.

"I'll get you for that" she said annoyed.

"Preselzee, are you ok?!" I asked her as I ran to her side.

"Not too bad. Don't worry. This guy is just a pushover" she said to me in a relaxed tone, "Though he must've to use the dark corridors to get here, because the keyholes are still damaged"

I helped her up as we faced the guy in the black coat. He raised his keyblade and created a dark sphere. I was about to pull my wand out, but he cast the spell over us! We were surrounded in darkness. What did he do? Preselzee sighed as we saw the scene changed in front of us. We were in the theater, but it was another Preselzee talking to Mira while Todd and Jay were practicing their lines for a play.

"Hey, Mira can I please talk to you about something?" she asked her nervously.

I actually never saw Preselzee that nervous before. Preselzee was clutching her arm as she looked at the scene. The Preselzee in the scene and Mira walked away from Todd and Jay.

"So, what did you want to talk about?" Mira asked with a smile.

"I want to go on a date with you" Preselzee said quickly.

Mira's eyes were wide a bit as Preselzee looked at her.

"I'm so sorry, Preselzee. I just don't share the same feelings for you, because I do not like girls" Mira answered as she went back to Todd.

The scene changed yet again to the work out room. She was stretching her legs while Keenan was running on the trendmill. Preselzee gazed a bit him a bit with a smile on her face while Keenan was focused on his run. Then it hit me.

I looked at Preselzee surprised, "Are you bisexual?"

She gave me a small smile as she answered weakly "Yeah..."

We heard someone laughing in the distance. The scene changed again to Preselzee being mocked by the rest of the Dreamers. She was shaking at the site of this nightmare.

"Have you told the Dreamers?" I asked her worriedly.

"No..." she answered as she just starred at the scene.

I wanted to help her, but then I turned around and saw a scene. Oh no... It was me. I was nervous to tell my friends about who I wanted to be. I sat down and began to panic. The laugh grew darker and darker as we saw our worst fears. What if our friends couldn't accept us for who we are?

"You two need to stop thinking like this!" a young boy shouted over us.

Preselzee recognized this voice and looked around.

"We worked together on this! I still see you as my friend and that will not change!" Rhyme shouted seriously.

"But what if they can't accept that and refuse to see us as who we want to be?" Preselzee asked nervously.

"Garmadon wouldn't want you to worry about that! When you told us who you preferred, we were happy for you! Your friends wouldn't see you differently!" the boy shouted strongly.

The nightmares were fading. Something is happening. I looked up at the scene before me. I know for a fact that Krystka, Mikala, and Jesa wouldn't hurt me but accept me for me. Jesa did accept me for me! I stood up and faced the scene before. This wasn't real. It's a nightmare and not my life! The nightmare shattered before me. I defeated it! Preselzee was surprised as she looked at the scene.

"Come on, Preselzee! Our friends wouldn't see nor treat us differently! This isn't real! It's a nightmare!" I shouted as I ran towards her.

I am her knight. I better do my job properly. I gripped my wand and cast a light spell on the nightmare. The nightmare vanished before her. She shook her head and looked around.

"Thanks, Phoebe. I needed that. Now, let's get out of here" Preselzee said as she made her gem transformed back to a lance.

"It's Grayson actually" I told her.

Preselzee was surprised a bit, but she smiled at me, "Alright, Gray! Let's shatter this fake nightmare!"

She slammed her lance on the ground and made four giant crystals rose from the ground. We stood back to back as I cast a light spell on one of the giant crystals. The light shined brightly in the crystal and went to the three other crystals. The light shined brightly and shattered the nightmare around us!

"Alright Vanitas, where are you?" Preselzee asked annoyed.

I didn't see Rhyme around here. Where is she? Preselzee took out a dagger from her bag and threw it at a shadow. The shadow tried to jump away, but the dagger was able to cut his side.

"Gah!" he shouted as he stepped into the light.

The dagger flew back to Preselzee as she walked over to him.

"What are you doing here?" she asked annoyed.

"I'll get you for this. You and my brother" he said as he vanished in darkness.

She sighed when he disappeared. She then walked back to me.

"You're ok, right?" she asked me.

"Yeah. Thanks" I answered her.

"No. Thank you for helping me. I needed that. Now, I've got to tell a few people something important about me" she said with a smile as she ran out of the room.

Rhyem ran out of my room and ran towards me. She looked very worried.

"Are you ok?! I had this nightmare where someone tried to hurt you!" Rhyme shouted in a panic.

"I'm ok. Thank you. Oh! I've got to send a message to my friends!" I shouted as I ran back to my room.

Rhyme followed me while having a confused look on her face. I opened my laptop and went on Instagram. That nightmare actually taught me to embrace who I am and trust my friends. I know for a fact my friends will accept me for who I am. I began to type up who I was. I am Grayson, a non binary person!
