Chapter 7 - A Genius's Rage
Ok, I'm done. I think we get whose POV it is at this point.
*Shoves chair backwards and leaves, slamming the door behind them*
Umm...I hope that wasn't the author....
I pull out my phone real quick...wait.
Why is my phone different?
O.O
Oh my gosh, it's an S5!
Did I get a new phone for Christmas???
Anyways, I used the new fingerprint lock opener thing and clicked on wattpad.
I brought me back to the book and I saw words being typed out.
Ok...who the heck left?
Whatever....
I put the phone back in my pocket and looked around.
We were standing outside the kingdom a few hours from the last chapter.
I seemed to have regained my energy a lot faster than I thought.
Maybe that Irene relic was still in me?
I dunno....
Anyways, everyone but Sky and Kit were here. Kit left her stick somewhere and she and Sky were looking for it.
ilbarker came up to me. "Hey, Becca...how...how exactly are we gonna deal with Jin? Out of all the spirits, despite him only being 3rd of...uh...5 or 7, depending on how you look at it, he's probably going to be the most aggressive."
I nodded. Yeah....
"But, I mean, he...has a hostage or hostages...so...he knows you're coming...right? Maybe he won't be...so aggressive?"
I shrugged. You would think so, but remember, Jess died in the kitchen. The kitchen is right next to the Grand Hall, so she might've heard our convos with the 3 executed. Maybe whoever is doing this just placed the hostages in the room with the ghosts and the ghosts just held them captive. Who knows if they know or not why they have hostages?
I heard the sound of running coming from the direction of the kingdom. I turned and saw Kit and Sky running to us, Sky trying to avoid getting smacked in the face with a wing.
I got distracted for a second because my phone vibrated.
I pulled it out and saw that someone mentioned me....
Mentioned me in Mono Kirby....
Ohhh...what is it?
I checked it out to see that it's fanart for my first Dangan book.
Holy....
Guys, check this out!
Woah! I've never had fanart before!
Now I feel all giddy!
:D
Thanks, Silver!
I put my phone back up and looked back at everyone.
Everyone was now here.
Mk. Everyone grab hands.
We did so and I felt the sensation of flying at hyper speed for a moment before we lay back in the Grand Hall.
And I mean actually lying down.
Everyone had fallen over from the transportation.
Oops. My B.
I rolled my eyes and levitated everyone, including myself, to our feet.
"Sky? Jason?"
I turned, as well as everyone else, to the voice.
It was Ty, and he looked both ecstatic and sad.
I saw Alzakz, Becky, Caleb, and Rebekitah walk over from somewhere down the table to us.
Sky smiled sadly, but Jason look full-on shocked. "What the...Ty?! What happened to you?!" He asked, staring at the burn holes and blackened skin.
Ty looked at himself. "Ah, well, I murdered someone and paid the price. I fell into lava parkouring."
Ty turned to me. "So...what next?"
Caleb walked up to me. I picked him up and held him in my arms. Well...I made a deal with Sky before we came here. I'm honestly surprised I got him to come after all that's happened. He wants to see Jin first. Is that ok?
Ty looked a little disappointed, but he nodded. "Yeah, I can wait."
I smiled at him. Thanks.
I turned to the group. Well...umm...here's the deal. I'm going into the library alone.
I could see ilbarker opening her mouth to protest, but I shook my head. I'm going alone because I don't need any of you guys getting hurt. I'll find a way to stay safe. I don't think he'll kill me.
Caleb hugged my neck tighter. "But...Becca, I don't want you to get hurt! I'll mits you!"
I hugged him back and put him down. I have to, Mr. Caleb. If I don't, we may never get home.
He looked sad, but he sighed. "Ok, Becca. I will stay will allzacks."
I smirked at his mispronunciation and gave him a nudge towards Alzakz.
Alzakz held Caleb's shoulders as he faced me.
I turned to Sky. I'll come out when he's ready. Whatever you do, DON'T COME IN. I don't need any of you hurt.
I turned towards the Grand Hall door and sighed.
Don't die.
I rolled my eyes and walked out and towards the stairs. I went up the stairs and towards the door of the library.
I paused, gathering myself before pushing open the door.
To say the library was a mess would be an underestimate.
Bindings of books, pages, tables...strewn all over the place.
It looked like a massacre to me because I love to read.
;-;
But...something was different.
I could feel my powers being withheld.
Jin sensed me and knew I was here.
But that wasn't it.
No.
The enchantment table was up here.
I approached it cautiously and, just like in Minecraft, it opened up when I could see the inside.
But there were no Standard Galactic symbols.
There was just a person.
A female.
I didn't recognize her, so I knew it was one of my followers.
My readers.
She seemed to be sitting against some kind of wall on the right page, her knees pulled to her chest.
She was rocking back and forth slightly.
Oh no....
Hello? I whispered.
The female jerked her head up and looked in my direction.
She stood up and walked towards me until I could only see her from the waist up. She seemed to be shaking slightly.
She must've lost some of herself from being stuck in there for so long....
Becca?
Words scribbled themselves on the left page.
I nodded. I'm sorry, I don't recognize you. Can you tell me your name?
sparkstream....
spark...I'm sorry you had to be dragged into this. I'm gonna get you outta there.
But how? I'm just ink on a page from your point of view. How could I get free?
Well, I need to f----
Words scribbled swiftly and huge on the page.
DUCK!!!
Without asking why, I ducked.
I heard a whistling sound as something flew directly through where my head had been, crashing into the wall.
I whirled around and got to my feet at the same time, almost falling over.
Jin....
His body was a palish blue, but his white hoodie had become a darkish-brownish-red. I could see his spine hanging loosely to the side of his body.
And his eyes....
He was enraged to see me. He was literally insane with rage. This was what I'd been worrying about.
"YOU!!" He yelled, throwing another table at me.
I ducked out of the way as the table hit where I'd been standing.
I saw spark duck out of the way just as the book closed, no longer sensing my presence.
Jin, wait, I---
"NO!! I DON'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO ANYTHING YOU HAVE TO SAY!!"
He launched a crapload of books at me.
I managed to dodge most of them, but a couple latched onto my legs, sending me sprawling.
Jin, please, let me ex----
I covered my face as a table was thrown directly at me.
I couldn't move due to the paperback books wrapped around my ankles.
I was beginning to panic at this point.
However, through the panic, I remembered something my dad always said when listening to the Harry Potter books.
Umm...readers, just throwing this out there, slight Harry Potter spoiler below.
'They need to stop trying to get them to listen and just say what they need to say. Throw the truth out and make them listen. Say Sirius didn't kill Harry's parents. That'll get their attention.'
Stop trying to make him listen and just say what needs to be said....
I HAVE SKY!! I yelled.
Everything seemed to freeze.
"What...?"
I...I have Sky. He's here.
Jin stared at me for a moment before snarling and throwing his hand up and at a bookshelf.
I went flying and landed against the bookshelf HARD. I could barely breath for a moment. I was stuck against the bookshelf, unable to move.
He floated up to me. "You lie. You're just trying to survive. Let me tell you this. YOU. DON'T. DESERVE. TO LIVE."
He raised his other hand out to somewhere and brought it towards me.
A piece of broken table flew up and "landed" in his hand.
He looked at it and at me.
Jin, no, wait, he's here, he's just downstairs....
"No. I don't know how you got here, but you shouldn't have come here if you valued your life. You separated me from my love. Now I will separate you from all the you love."
He pulled the stabby thing back and prepared to launch it right at my face.
*SLAM*
"JIN, STOP!"
Jin paused, the table piece freezing.
"That voice...." He muttered.
Without releasing me, he turned to the door.
There stood Sky, breathing hard.
"Jin...please...don't...."
Jin looked at him and at me.
"But...she...she separated us.... All the others are together and we're apart."
Sky took a few deep breaths. "I know. She came to my kingdom. I acted the same way until she told me what she was doing. She's fixing her mistakes. Please...let her down...."
I just stared at the scene.
Why had he come up here?
Yes, he saved my life, but I didn't want them getting hurt.
Jin looked at me for the longest time before releasing me.
I fell to the floor, landing on my knees.
Oww....
Jin floated down next to me and dropped the table piece.
"BECCA!!"
I looked up swiftly to see Caleb collide with me, knocking me over.
"No...no...never do that again...please...."
I laid there in shock for a moment before hugging him back.
Jin looked to Sky.
They stared silently at each other before Jin flew to him, giving him a ghost hug.
"Sky.... You're really here...."
I sat up, holding Caleb in my arms.
The rest of the gang walked through the door and straight to me.
"Becca, are you insane?! You knew he'd be hostile!" ilbarker scolded.
I sighed. Exactly. Too hostile. I did consider for a moment to let Sky go to him first, but...after thinking about my conversation with Pewdiplier, I realized that...he might attack Sky without knowing what he was doing. I wanted to at least let him get some rage out before seeing Sky. I didn't want him to...kill Sky....
"You really need to tone it down for a while, to be honest." Kit pointed out.
I sighed again and stood up. Well, let's at least send Jin on.
I walked over to Jin and Sky.
Jin...?
He turned to me. He looked calmer, more collected.
"Becca...I'm sorry. I overheard you talking over there. You really...do care about us, don't you?"
I rubbed the back of my head. That's a vague question. I do care about you guys, but I also care for the people you all are holding as hostages.
Jin looked to the enchantment table and stared as if he had never seen it before.
Maybe he never has due to his blind rage.
"Ohh...yes. Her. She just kinda...appeared and I just...trapped her in there. It felt almost...forced."
He waved his hand at the enchantment table.
The book flew open and I caught a glimpse of spark before the pages came flying from the book.
Every single one.
The flew around until that had gathered in a sphere shape.
It lowered itself to the ground and dissolved, revealing spark in the flesh.
spark looked dazed and scared.
"SPARK!" ilbarker exclaimed, giving her friend a ilbarker hug.
"Hey, no, she's MY friend! What the heck, author?!" Cassia said angrily, crushing both ilbarker and spark in a Cassia hug.
spark was still frozen for a moment before blinking and hugging back, a dazed look still in her eye. I did see a small smile on her face, though.
That's good, at least.
Jin looked to me and to Sky. "Sky...I...I just wanted to say...."
Sky smirked. "What, that ya love me? I hope so, cuz I was gonna say that to you. I love you, Jin, and don't you ever forget it."
Jin smiled, tears appearing in the corners of his eyes.
"I...I love you too, Sky...."
He let out a long sigh and glowed brighter.
"This...this is it...."
He looked to Sky one last time. "Sky...we'll meet again in the afterlife.... Goodbye."
Sky looked super sad. "...Goodbye, Jin...."
Jin closed his eyes and disappeared in a small flash of light.
Sky stared at the spot Jin used to be before falling to his knees, tears falling down his face.
But he was half-smiling.
I placed a hand on his shoulder. Sky...? Do you need a moment alone?
He nodded.
I turned to the gang and levitated them all slightly to get their attention quietly.
I pointed to the doorway and walked out, the rest, minus Sky, following behind.
Well...umm...this was an eventful chapter, Hyperfans!
Seems we've gained yet another person to our group.
But how many more are here?
WHO all is still being held here against their will?
I...I guess we'll see later.
Smash that vote button at hyper speeds, Hyperfans!
-Becca <3
