Hey, sorry I haven't uploaded its just that I was playing a lot of Pokémon GO and I was also watching Haikyu! so that slowed down my process. I was also doing a lot of WiFi battles on Pokémon and also I made a video for my YouTube channel, which has the same name as my fanfiction account so check it out if you can. But anyway, sorry it took so long for an upload. I'll try harder.
Okay so SiH does not belong to me, but my characters do.
Well, lets continue from where we left off.
Chapter 25
"Hey kid, can you hear me?" The voice asked.
Lucia's eyes widened as well as filled up with tears.
"Chief?" Lucia questioned, her voice just above a whisper. "I-is that really you?"
"Who do ya think it is? The Easter Bunny?" said the man sarcastically. "That boy Kim tracked me down and told me to turn on the T.V. because he said you was going to die or some shit. What the hell are you up to?"
"Wait, Jefesito c-came an-nd found you?" Lucia asked. "B-but how? I thought he would be busy."
"He ain't busy enough to not come running when you're about to crash to your death!" exclaimed the man. "Now what the hell is going on with you?!"
"I-I'm on a jet and I don't know h-how t-to fly it." Lucia began. "A-and I-I've lost connection with my friends a-and family a-and also s-some of my friends a-are on h-here w-with me a-and-"
"Kid, take a breath or you'll kill yourself even faster!" the man said.
"I-I'm sorry." Lucia said. "B-but I-I'm scared. I don't want to die."
"...You are not afraid of dying." the man said.
"W-what?" Lucia questioned.
"You are not afraid of death. You never were." the man stated. "All you've ever been afraid of is failing, whether that be in school, in love, or whatever. What you're afraid of is failing and having to have other people pay the price of that!"
Lucia started weeping after that because she knew that he was right.
"Th-then what d-do I do?" Lucia asked.
"Don't you remember what I taught you long ago?" the man asked.
"About what?" Lucia asked as tears fell from her eyes.
"About doing something for the sake of others." the man stated.
"U-uuhh...I...ummm..." Lucia thought for a bit, but got nothing.
"...If you can't feel confident doing something for others..." the man began.
"...then, you should do it for yourself first." Lucia finished.
"Correct." the man said. "So just think like that."
"How?" Lucia questioned.
"Alright, repeat after me." the man said. "The world is dark and cruel."
"T-the world I-is dark and cruel." Lucia repeated.
"If I do something, it should be for myself." the man continued.
"I-if I d-do something, it should be for myself." the girl repeated again.
"Good, now keep repeating that and fly that jet back home." the man said.
"The world is dark and cruel. If I do something, it should be for myself. The world is dark and cruel. If I do something, it should be for myself. The world is dark and cruel. If I do something, it should be for myself." Lucia kept repeating that phrase over and over.
The more she said it, the more she was able to focus. With that she started flying the jet back safely. However, the rest of the group on the jet started to feel a little scared, because their leader seemed to be in some sort of trance. Although, the group back in the library was getting goosebumps as they had never seen Lucia act like that.
"W-what the hell is going on?" Anne asked.
"Is Lucia okay? That stuff she is saying sounds pretty bad." Ritsu stated.
"I've never seen her say something like that before." Masamune said.
"I think, I recall Lucia telling me about this tactic when we were younger." Tommy said.
"What do you mean?" Anne questioned.
"Well, when you...left Lucia for the first time, she said that she became really depressed." Tommy began. "She also said she wanted to become better for you, but her friend advised against it and said that she should focus on doing something to make herself feel better and not to please others. That tactic has helped her put more focus into things and try harder."
"So...this is my fault?" Anne questioned, before passing out.
"Anne, are you okay?" Hiyori asked.
"Ummm, maybe its best that she stays unconscious until Lucia is able to bring everyone back." Husky said.
"Yeah, we wouldn't want her to have another panic attack in case something goes wrong." stated Jake.
After he said that all of the adults screamed "WHAT ELSE COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG!?"
After a bit, Tommy began to get a signal again and it looked like Lucia was about to land the plane.
Hyun checked his computer and then showed it to Alejandro.
"Alright, so it seems she's landing the jet in an airport that is five miles from here. You'll probably be there when she lands if you leave right now." Alejandro stated.
While Tommy and the other teen males stayed in the library, the rest left to go to the airport and see the group.
Alright, that is all for now. Do not worry, the story is almost over. I already have my idea for the ending. Y'all are gonna love it. And I'll try to upload again soon, so please be patient. Anyway, review if you can.
Oh and once again SiH is not mine, but my characters are.
Well, see y'all later. Have a good day :)
