Chapter 3: Friendship
In Scarlett's house, the red feathered bird comes into kitchen with two mugs of hot chocolate for her and Justin. "Enjoy, Grammama's recipe."
"Oh!" Justin takes it and sips, enjoying the taste and all. "Man, this interior is nice! Wonder what house is this?"
"It's just a normal brick house."
"Ah. You know, I was also thinking, I even thought of Red at first..."
Scarlett stopped of surprise from hearing the bird's name. "Red?!"
"What?"
"I know him...he's a..." She blushes deeply. "…more of a special friend."
Justin was noticing this too. "Yeah... I bet he might be noticing it now..."
"Noticing what?"
"The ship- wait..."
He put down the cup on the table and looked outside the window. Sure enough, it's Red, who is curious over the ship. "What..."
He noticed it was near his house...
o-O
"Now I remember."
Then, Justin remembers a moment in his head. "I was supposed to tell you about the original revision of that story..."
Scarlett looks out the window as Justin tells her… "Because...
sigh
It was the PIGS that have used me as their guinea pig.
He falls onto his knees again, feeling more pain than ever. "No...
I can't..."
She rushes over and helps him up. "It's always these dark flashbacks that keep coming to me-"
Then, both Scarlett and Justin get the same perspective, experiencing through the flashback on how he got injected, and tested on, through the ENTIRE experience. Even feeling the actions too...
A few minutes later, it was back to reality. Scarlett's eyes widen horror as she sees the things he did.
Justin then speaks again. "All this time, it was a trap...
A trap I easily fell for."
Chapter 4: The Black Spark's First Use
Then, Justin senses a presence coming closer. Scarlett slams her door shut. "Hide now."
Justin was kinda scared. "What is it?!"
"Pig agents."
"FUCK..." He went to then hide in a hidden shelter under the floor.
Scarlett waits for the pigs to pass by, while Justin tries to hide his presence.
The Pig Agents bang on the door, and Scarlett answers, "Piss off, I already told your slimy boss my answer is no."
...
It was all silence, for now…
But it was broken a few minutes later, when the sound of Scarlett screaming, and grunting as the sound of a struggle is heard from above.
! "That's it. If it has to be done..."
Justin then gets up from the floor shelter and hits the pigs with the Black Spark, freeing Scarlett from their clutches.
"...so be it..."
The pigs were surprised over Justin, and were like, "What the fuck is this freak?!"
Now, they're about to witness the stages of the Black Spark. First off, their abilities and weapons get nulled...
"My gun's not working!" One of them tries to fire his gun, but can't.
Then, the vision changes. For Scarlett, Justin looked normal. But to the pigs, he was like a demon. A god of death. "You͠ r̕e͘all͜y̷ ̧sho̡uld̛n't ̵h̛av̧e h̨u r͢t ͝h͢er..̡.̧"
Scarlett backed up in fear, but Justin uses his telepathy. "Scarlett. Don't be afraid of me... I'm still here with you..."
"They've learned their lesson, you can stop now...!"
Justin sees them start to leave. Then, he got to calm down. "UGH... THANK FUCKING GOD..." She notices Scarlett acting differently…
"Scarlett...?
It's okay. They'll be gone." But Scarlett was shaking like a leaf. So, he come closer, and tried to calm her down with some gentle rubs. "There, there...
Don't be scared. They'll be gone. Out of existance, that is."
Outside, Red hears some pig screams as the moment arrives. First stage happens with the rotting, then the second being pulled into the black abyss, and then, the flashbang. Luckily, nobody else noticed. Only Red, Chuck, Bomb, Scarlett, and Justin noticed it.
"It's okay..."
He hugs her.
…
But no matter what Justin had tried, she is silent.
sigh
"I'm sorry it was like this..."
Scarlett was already scarred for the rest of her life… "I don't know what to say..."
Justin then gets up. "I'll let you think it over for now, best friend..." She leaves her alone for now as he go upstairs, and makes his room with his bag. After it was made, he goes in, and locks the door inside.
He then lies down on his bed, and puts the tablet next to him, and the AI activates.
Nolia: It had to be done, Justin...
"Yes, Nolia. I'm afraid for her safety, as well as the others..."
"It's just... It's scary..."
Nolia: At least now the pig agents there are gone.
"Yeah... Might as well have to get some shut-eye for now..." He then starts to fall asleep for the night...
Chapter 5: "Red" Alert
The next morning, Justin was sleeping, and hears knocking on his window first. He wakes up slowly, to see that Red is knocking his window.
"Huh..? Red...?
Is it really you..?"
He wakes up to see it was actually Red clinging onto his window from outside, knocking.
"Hang on, bud..." He gets up and slides the window open for him to climb in.
"Justin, we need to talk, and I mean TALK." He sounded concerned about what happened.
"Well, come in here. At least Scarlett doesn't notice the door outside this room just yet...
And hey, Red..." He hugs him as he brings him inside, and slides the window closed.
"Look, Justin, we got trouble; King Leonard is coming back pretty soon.
He's after Scarlett I just know it."
Justin was stunned. "Oh my god..." Then…
!
He remembered. "Now I remember who I am..."
"What? Already?"
"Well, you know the news about a certain someone coming over, that is the president of a republic, and also happens to have a popular island as part of the country?"
"Yeah...?" Red was kinda confused.
"The fact is, I kinda messed up on me being a gryphon, somewhat. Yes, I can be that too..."
"You can change bodies?"
"Well, kinda so, to suit the mood. Technology these days.
But, the truth is, Red..." He looks deep into his eyes…
"Justin?"
Then, he reveals his big secret. "...I'm the president of the Republic of Rovia. And I am named Justin. You are looking at a famous political figure right now."
Red was amazed at what had just been revealed. "WHAT?!"
Even Red's loud shock of surprise actually managed to make Scarlett hear it from downstairs. "Yes. I'm what they call President Justin." By the time it was heard, Scarlett rushes upstairs and slams the door open. "Hello, Scarlett!-"
Red interrupts. "Don't give her that innocent look, Justin, tell her what you told me!"
Justin stands up and clears his throat. "Scarlett. I am Justin, founder and first president of the Republic of Rovia."
"…What?"
She glared at him. "Why didn't you tell me that before?!"
Justin then explains. "Well, I wanted to hide my identity, because as you know, I had to come up with a way to make Piggy Island a special administative region, making them part of Rovia, but has their own laws to add to it as well. Kinda like Quebec in Canada, for example."
"Well, thanks for letting me know last minute, Justin, or should I say your excellency?!" Scarlett storms out, in pure disgust.
...
That was quite a pure insult.
An extreme insult that made Justin fall on his knees, crying.
Nolia: Justin, look at what you did. Now she's going to hate you for that, VERY badly.
"It really is..."
He gets up and slides the window open, ready to jump out and flee in isolation.
"Nolia. If you need me, you'll know I'll be far. Away from this mess."
Nolia: sniff of sadness I will, Justin...
He then gets ready to jump, and he says one final word before running away...
"Nevermore."
He then jumps and then runs far, away from the place...
"JUSTIN WAIT!" Red was trying to catch up to Justin, who was flooded with emotional pain. A pain he now regrets to be alive for.
But it was too late, as he was already gone, out of Bird Island, dashing away with his boat, leaving his bag and Nolia behind…
