Chapter 1: Long forgotten memories.
Part 1: The Unstoppable Fire.
"Oh, where am I?" questioned a voice in the darkness, Bard's voice, "Ah, I'm in a dream. This place is freakin' dark for dream." Suddenly a fire rose up in front of Bard and in the madness of the fire he saw himself when he was very young, holding his younger brother, Johann.
"Mommy! Daddy!" cried out Johann struggling in the arms of young Bard. "Come on Johann! Let it go! We've got to get out of here!", "Na! I don't wanna! Mommy!" Young Bard somehow managed to pick up Johann in such a way that he couldn't move anymore.
Young Bard (I keep saying 'Young' cause otherwise you might get him confused with the "old" Bard who's watching the memories) ran to the forest with Johann on his back as they watched the house crumble to nothingness.
Once in the forest, they cried and cried till they slowly fell asleep.
The next day, they've decided to live in the forest feeding on animals, fish, plants and fruits, they also had a lake nearby and sticks, stones and fire were their only weapons.
They were happy as they slowly forgot the fire that was still burning alight in their memories. But, of course, happiness doesn't last forever.
Young Bard just arrived in the camp after collecting some wood for the fire, when he suddenly heard a scream of horror nearby. He ran to the spot where the scream came and there, he saw something horrible.
Carnage was written all over the place. There were people who had their insides tore out, their heads smashed on the earth or trees, and some had missing parts of their bodies. Young Bard started pucking, a lot.
Then he heard another scream, a very familiar scream, Johann's scream. Young Bard ran as fast as he could till he arrived to the point where he saw the person who made this massive murder and Johann lifted above the ground, strangled by the man.
The man was a very strange person, he was as black as the darkness surrounding them, red glowing crimson eyes and a devilish smile that showed how dreadful he was. Just by the looks of him, Bard knew what he was, a demon.
"Hey you there! Drop that boy immediately!" shouted the young Bard. "And may I know who you might be?" said the demon with his dark and metallic voice. Bard was to scared to respond, the demon narrowed his eyes and said "Pff, your lucky I'm not interested in you, otherwise you'd already be dead 'Bard'…" The demon said Bard's name with a touch of amusement and disgust. In the twinkling of an eye, Bard was sent flying across the field and crashed into a tree, as the demon started feeding on poor Johann. "Noooo! Please let me-…" and then nothing. A dead silence.
The sun started to rise as Bard crawled up to Johann. Johann's eyes and heart were torn out and nowhere to be found. Young Bard wept and wept and somehow he had fallen asleep. When he woke up, it was near late afternoon. He rose up and before he left, he gave a goodbye kiss on Johann's forehead and whispered to him "May you have a nice life in heaven bro."
When young Bard disappeared, something amazing happened. The "crime" scene suddenly turned into a beautiful meadow of flowers. The dead bodies all turned into animals and the only body left was Johann's. A shinigami appeared near the body and gave Johann a new heart and shinigami eyes. Johann's eyes fluttered wide open when he heard his own heart beating, "Who are you?" asked the boy. "Hiii~, I'm Eugene Ferh, a shinigami.""A whaaat?""A death god." Eugene's grin was now a huge smile that Johann thought his face must hurt. "Why did you revive me Mr. Ferh?" questioned the boy. "Ahh~, but that is my job, orders are orders boy." Eugene was still smiling his wide grin.
"Now, your name is Johann, right~?" he sang. "Yes?""Wrong! Your name is Ronald Knox now, Okay?" "Uhh, okay, guess so… But Mr. Ferh, I can't see clearly, all I see is your face…" "Ahhh, right! Here!" The shinigami handed Jo-*coughs* Ronald a pair of cheap glasses, "Ah, it's cheap but at least I can see…" "Hin hin (right, 'Hin hin' is a chuckle ok?), now come with me to the shinigami world, there, you shall start your training…" A portal opened up near Eugene and Ronald took a step forward and stopped, "Can I do one more thing before I go?" "Suuurree~, do whatever you want." Ronald took a deep breath and started to make a paper plane with a document he found on the ground. In the paper plane he put his favorite flower, a dandelion.
Then he whistled a four note song as he threw the paper plane in the air, it went right towards the camp. The mocking birds sang Ronald's tune over and over again. Before he left he wrote on the earth 'I love you Bard, goodbye 3'.
Young Bard was in a river washing all the blood off him, "Ugh, the fire in my memories is unstoppable, I can't get Death out of my head." He was shaking his head violently when he heard something land near him. It was a paper plane with a dandelion, "Ha, these are all the stuff that Johann loves, I wonder who could have done it?" thought young Bard. Then he heard the mockingbirds, "That's Johann's favorite tune!" Young Bard dressed up as fast as he could and ran to the murder field, there was nothing, no more bodies, no more blood, young Bard felt quite happy at this sight. That's when he spotted Johann/Ronald's message, 'I love you Bard, goodbye 3'. Young Bard had tears in his eyes but shook them away, "Ah I'm so happy," thought young Bard, "He's still alive, but how?" Now that was a question he couldn't answer, but he was just too happy.
"Ahhrrgg, when is this going to end!" cried out the 'old' Bard as the memories faded away to darkness, "When is this dream going to end!"
