Goodbye Cannot Be If You Never Belonged

Me: o.0 Whoo-boy. Been a LONG time since I last updated. Damn Pre-Calculus homework.
David: Haha!! I'm only in Algebra 2!!
Me: Yeah, and you still suck at it to. Like how Bit sucks at being tactful.
Bit: ;_; Why am I suddenly brought into this???
Me: Because it seemed like the damn thing to do at the time alright?
Bit: *nods dumbly*
Me: I thought as much. I do not own Camelot, Golden Sun, Nintendo, or Zoids. Bon Appetite!
I look down in to the valley. The wind blows through my hair, smelling of last night's rain and the heavy scent of woods, toying with me and inviting me to come and race it to the ends of Angara. But nothing was ever to be so. Two days ago the unthinkable happened. Powerful objects that we never even knew existed had been stolen from beneath our noses by some strange passerby's that had mysteriously appeared from the outside world. From beyond the grand gate.
I was to pass through that accursed gate today. Pass through to a world that I did not belong to. Even here, in my hometown, I got the distinct feeling that I did not belong. Everyone here was calm, patient, and reflective. They kept legends and myths alive amongst themselves, telling them to their children over and over until the children remembered word for word. Even I had been subjected to this torture. Our entire community was mostly Venus Adepts. The only people I know or have met that were like me are my family and Jenna.
Jenna. I miss her so badly. She was spirited away those bastards two days ago, when we walked up to Mt. Aleph. I have no idea how we could have been so stupid and careless to not realize that something was wrong. It was partly Jenna's fault, pushing Isaac to accept. He probably had a feeling that this would happen. He's some sort of prophet, a herald, or even a goddamn saint. He's perfect. But that's off my subject.
I glance around at the townsfolk that I had known my entire life. All are totally calm except my parents, making me feel even more alien amongst these patient, wise people. I had no right, with my short temper, loud ways, and sheer idiocy, to disrupt their normal, story reciting lives. Maybe it's people like me that tell secrets to thieves like. . .like. . .hell, I can't pronounce their names. Macaroni and Sauce? Retardi and Taurus? Fuck this shit. I hate it all, it should have never happened.
I don't belong here with these sacred people, and I don't belong amongst the outside world either. Who knows how I might fuck everything up? Touch that little button that activates that trap that you knew was there Garet. Yeah, I can see that happening. "Stupid Garet Kills Town Hero During Quest to Save World" right on the fucking front of Angara Monthly, dammit.
But then again, I will do anything to get back the person who understands me the most. Not that I'm saying Isaac doesn't, but he can't provide the same thing Jenna can: the experience. I look over at Isaac. As usual his face is wiped of all thought and feeling remaining steadfastly tacit. How can he be so goddamn calm?! His last family isn't here to see him off and he's leaving his childhood home! How? Me, I'm about to break into tears! How dammit, how?
He looks over toward me and reads my face like the open book it is, "Because it's the right thing to do. Show them confidence in what you're doing, give them hope. Truthfully, I feel like shitting my pants right now, I'm so scared." I chuckled. Such a rare thing, Isaac's humor. I nodded my agreement and, like Isaac, put on a fake mask that I knew I'd be wearing for a very long time.
A/N: Please review! It would be wonderful if you did! I'll even accept the flames from hell! Cookie? *holds cookie out to reader*
