Mother5: Black Oblivion

Book Two: The Flat Zone

Chapter Four: All in Good Time

"Oh god, here she comes…"

"Ugh, just look at her!"

"What a beast…"

"Beast is an understatement…"

Age 15, Silvia surely changed in an eight year absence of Bowie, glaring red eyes, her innocent dress was gone and replaced with a matching jean jacket, shorts, a purple and yellow striped shirt, and a pair of purple sneakers.

'Idiots….' Silvia scoffed pulling on her graduation gown.

"It's amazing to see you here Silvia!" a girl laughed. "I mean graduation of all things!"

"…Yeah, I get my work done, unlike other people…." she snorted back "Seeing how you're repeating the school year…" the girl blushed in rage.

"You…!" laughing, Silvia exited the changing room.

xoxoxox

So graduation went off with out a hitch, someone pulled a tick and pinned the blame on Silvia, she din't even deny it, if she tried people would of argued that she did it and she would have been stranded in the sun for longer. So she said she did it then left the ceremony all together.

xoxoxox

Tiredly, Hisoka stumbled home, he ended up spending most of his day down in the inn's bar and Silvia had to help him back to the ranch. The adult smiled.

"You're so sweet Silvia" she laughed, as if she was mocking herself.

"I'm anything but that sir…"

"Nonsense…" Silvia only shook her head and helped him to his room. Hisoka took his boots off, placed his hat on his nightstand and flopped down on to the familiar bed. Silvia exited the room, outside the door was Elisabeth of ten, she smiled at her elder sister.

"Hi sis!" Silvia kneeled down to her younger sister to hug her.

"Oh, hello, how are you?"

"Good! You got a letter by the way!" Elisabeth handed a purple envelop to her sister, which she gladly accepted.

Dear Silvia,

Sorry it's been a while since I've wrote to you, but being the lead singer of a band does keep you busy! Well, I've managed to make it big in the big city! The people of Daisy Fields love our band! So encased inside is your cut of the pay and a backstage pass if you ever decide to see one of our shows! Well see you later! Hah, I mean write you later!

From Ashleigh of HotStop!

Silvia looked at the money, a few hundred dollars. She sighed. Silvia never understood why Ashleigh would seen her all this money… pushing that aside Silvia went to her room, to store it away with all the rest. With joy relief Silvia flopped her self onto her bed,

"Now what…?" she sighed "I graduated from school, what's left…?"

Annoyed, she covered her eyes with her arm, "Arg… I don't have any career path, and I wanna get the heck outta this town… ugh, what to do?!" after five minutes of flailing on her bed, Silvia sighed.

"I…"

BOOOOOM!!

"….Hate my life…" with a heavy sigh Silvia pulled her self from her bed, she looked out a window, a fire, she glared "Awesome, another fire, fan-freakin-tastic…" she reached for her cracked hockey stick by her door. Grumbling and mumbling she stomped down stairs.

"Sis, what's going on?"

"No idea, but, I'm gonna figure out…"

"Isn't that dangerous?" Silvia paused, she turned to her sister and smirked.

"Maybe…"

xoxoxox

Villagers were horrified, this girl had fire emerging from her fingers, laughing as she burned livestock and villagers, alive. Silvia ran into town square, her eyes narrowed.

"You…" the blond stopped, she smiled innocently.

"Oh, why Silvia it's been years…"

"Eight whole, empty and lonely years thanks to you…"

"Oh, now, now, no need to be sore…" a few villagers were puzzled, what could these two be talking about?

"You warped this village into a hell hole…"

"So?"

"So!? Peoples lives are not toys, you are you even here?! You took my parents and robbed me of my only friend… What is there left to take!?"

"Well… There is your life…" the girl sighed, she pouted disappointingly "But that's what my boss wants…"

"…I see, you know what?"

"What? What's soooo amazing you gotta tell me?"

"I'm gonna kill you, I swear I'll kill you… I will avenge all of them…"

"Oh I'd like to see that…" the girl smirked and disappeared in a mass of flames. Silvia glared at the spot where the blond girl floated, clouds roared and it began to rain, just like those eight years ago.

An angel in heaven was crying…

xoxoxox

It was silent at the table the next morning, Hisoka was annoyed by the fact that Silvia wouldn't explain the reason why she was bandaged up. So the three humans sat at the table in silence. Spike, the one puppy Bowie clamed for himself all those years ago, looked over at Silvia as Buton, but looking young as ever, sat in her lap, asleep. Loud clanking of a knife and fork snapped everyone attention, all turned to Silvia.

"Hisoka, I'm leaving the village."

"W-what?! Why are you leaving? Is it the villagers? They've never bothered you before so why now Silvia?! Why?!"

"There is something important I need to do… I have to do this." the adult stared down the elder girl who stared back, who looked ready to jump out the nearby window if he refused.

"...When? When do you plan to go?"

"As soon as I pack…" the man sighed watching her stand up and walk away

"Even if I said no, you would still go, wouldn't you?"

"Yes sir."

"Ugh, I'm not going to stop you, but Silvia…" she paused "Just be careful…"

"We'll see about that…" off to her room, Silvia reached under her bed to find a simple purple bag, she packed only the bear necessities. Spare clothes, a sleeping bag, asthma spray, her money, and grabbing her cracked hockey stick she went back down stairs for the final thing, food.

Hisoka was at the counter, apparently wrapping food items, Silvia waited a moment or two before acting her self. Quickly she grabbed an apple, a bottle of milk from the fridge to realize the worst thing possible, the last slice of cake was missing.

"NO!" she yelled in horror "Not the cake! Who ate it?!"

"No one," Hisoka sighed "I packed it in this boxed lunch I made for you." Silvia blinked

"You did…?"

"Of course… now, take care."

"Huh?"

"Be careful of course." the adult reached over to pat her on the head, Silvia blinked awkwardly.

"Uh, okay…"

"Big sis!" Silvia turned back to her sister, in Elisabeth's arms was a teddy bear. Not any teddy bear, the last gift from their parents, the one possession she held dearly. Elisabeth handed the bear over.

"Wha… Elisabeth? Why are you giving this to me?"

"So, you don't forget me!"

"Elisabeth…. I wont forget you. So keep Jeffykins." the younger girl's eyes watered up

"B-b-but… I want you to take him…" with that near in tear face on her sister, she couldn't say no.

"Alright, I'll take it Jeffykins with me…"

"Yay!" the white haired girl giggled and jumped around. "Now take good care of him!"

"Right…" soon as she reached for the door knob again there was the clashing of nails against the wooden floor. Silvia turned around, it was Buton and Spike. "What? You two wanna come along too?" the animals nodded "Whatever, it's your decision…" Silvia sighed and opened the front door, Buton and Spike following. They left the ranch, the villagers stopped repairs to look at her, as usual they glared at her presents, some oddly looked worried, weirdly they were outside the usual circle that worried about her. Although it went over her head as she trudge into that dreaded forest.

xoxoxox

Spike stopped, he got into a defensive position, one he used many times to protect the livestock of the ranch, he growled

"What is it?"

'Cat…' she gave the dog a look, stupid cats and dog with their dumb animal rivalry…

The cat was unfazed by the threading huge dog, it laughed at it's present?

"Did that cat… just laugh?"

"Laugh did I? Oh surely I did." Silvia's left eye twitched "As you can plainly see, I am no ordinary cat…"

"Clearly…"

"Don't be so rude." the black cat scoffed it's blue eyes narrowing at Silvia. "So… may I record your adventure?"

"What…?" the cat jumped over Spike and landed before Silvia, it just stood there.

"Alright, I'm done recording, be on your way…" and the cat disappeared hopping into to the trees. Silvia only stared,

"What the… no, don't even bother…" continuing on her way Silvia took notice of a beehive sitting on the ground, she walked past it but stupidly, Buton tackled it. "Buton! What the heck?!" the bees were clearly displeased with what the boar did to their home and went in for the kill. The boar scattered away, grunting Silvia swung her hockey stick, crippling a few bees. Bees swarmed Spike, as if he dint even notice he casually swung his tail, crippling a good number of the enemy bees.

"Die bees! Die!!" they clearly weren't pleased with them and Silvia, knowing this wasn't going to end well she took Buton and ran out of there. Far, far, far away from the bees, Silvia sighed heavily.

"Buton! That was stupid… Buton?" she looked around for her boar to find I glaring at another beehive and ready to tackle that one. "OH MY GOD! NO! BUTON NO!"
