I'd be a fool to think I was anything he ever needed. He didn't need me; of course he didn't. No one did.
I was sitting on top of a picnic table as I stared out over the river. I wished I could make my mind shut up about that stupid jerk. I didn't want to think about him anymore. I'd be fool to let myself do that.
Although I had been a fool.
Hot, angry tears leaked from my eyes, even though I'd tried so hard to hold them back. I wiped them on my sleeve, but as fast as I did, more came. I slumped over my knees, exasperated. I gave up.
Suddenly, I heard an odd noise. I turned around.
This purply black circle was opening out of thin air. Suddenly, there was a huge, empty suit of armour standing there. It was easily taller than my house.
It was a heartless.
I'd never seen one so close to town, thought they'd warned us about them. I got up and prepared to run. It looked at me.
I shrieked. It jumped and smashed into the table. I had moved away milliseconds before. The table shattered on impact. I threw my arms over my head under the deluge of scraps. I looked back at the thing.
Its hands detached themselves from the body and came after me. One smacked me in the middle of my back as I was running, knocking out all my air and sending me flying into a little tree. The tree cracked with the force.
I dragged myself up on my elbows, gasping for air. I looked at the poor tree I'd just maimed.
It was being supported by two iron bars.
Using strength I didn't know I'd owned, I stood and yanked one bar out of the ground. I turned with my bar poised like a baseball bat, ready to face the thing.
Its hands came at me again. I batted at them, smacking them away right before they hit me.
One hand exploded on contact.
I gasped. I began hammering away at the other one. Soon it blew up too.
"Strike one!" I yelled at the thing, just to make myself feel cool.
It jumped. I lost sight if it. It'd gone.
"Hah!" I laughed. Guess it'd had enough of me…
Suddenly, a shadow passed over the sun. With a sickening lurch, I looked up.
Crunch.
