Chapter 9:Troubled Memories
Ray's Point of View
I stared at the ground as we walked to east,thinking about what might lay ahead of us.Monsters,the Masamune,some kind of alien,or even the man that had burned our hometown.There were so many possibilities,that I was actually scared.
"What's wrong?"I heard someone ask,though I didn't care who it was.
"Nothing...,"I muttered.
Another voice said it at the same time time.I looked up to see who it was and saw Sarah smiling at me.
"You used to always say that when we asked you that question when we were little.You'd always mope around for a few days,we'd ask what was wrong,and you'd say 'Nothing...'.You can tell us what's on your mind,you know?"she asked.
"...Whatever...,"I replied and looked back down.
"Jerk...,"she muttered in a playful tone.
"Would you both please shut up.He obviously does not want to tell what is wrong so leave it be,"Zapland said in irritated voice.
I stopped paying attention to anything except the ground.
*~You're weak.~*
I shook my head.
*~You don't deserve to be my son!~*
I clutched my head in my hand.Someone asked me if I was okay.
*~You'll never be strong.Look at you!Always crying when you can't do anything about the pain around you!~*
"Shut up,"I growled,holding my head in both hands.
*~That's why you see your town burning to the ground!You can't stop it...you know you can't!And what do you do?You cry!~*
I fell to my knees,"SHUT UP!!"
*~And to think that you have MY blood flowing through your veins.What an embarrassment!~*
"Leave me alone!!!"I shouted.
*~You can't win.You're too weak.Keep this as a memento of our little meeting.~*
The scar I had on my left arm started to glow as I felt steel cut through it again.The voice I heard belonged to the man that gave me that scar.When the pain ended,I completely collapsed and everything went dark.
----------
I opened my eyes and regretted it.Bright lights were shining directly at me.
"I see you're awake now...I was worried."
"Argh...Mind turning the lights down or something?"I asked.
"Don't worry about it,you'll see normally soon."
"Ugh..What happened to me?"I questioned,not caring who I was talking to.
"Well,first you started shouting 'shut up',then you collapsed.Trunks and Zapland had to carry you the rest of the way."
I blinked a few times and my sight started to return to normal,"Rest of the way?"
"We made it through the caves Nono was talking about.We're in Angelo Town now."(A/N:Anyone ever played the game 'Final Fantasy 8'?Angelo is the name of Rinoa's dog,and probably a few other things from different games/real life things.I'm not sure exactly where the name originally came from.)
Finally,my sight returned to normal and I turned my head to the source of the voice to see Sarah.
"You don't know how beautiful you are to a guy who just woke up from being unconscious,"I joked.
She laughed and came a little closer,"I'm sure you want to know exactly where you are,right?"
I nodded.
"We're in the house of some doctor that was kind enough to take us in.We had to get you to the nearest place to rest since Trunks and Zapland were getting tired of carrying you,"she said,"What was going on with you anyway?"
I shook my head,"Bad memories...Real bad memories."
"That can be a good thing.It means you're starting to remember things,"she stated.
I sat up from my laying position and rubbed my head
"I'm glad you're all right,"she said,"...I was really worried."
I turned my head and smirked,"Why?After all,I was a 'jerk' to you,right?"
"Let's just say that I'm not one to hold grudges,"she laughed.
I heard footsteps near the room and someone walked in.It was Trunks.
"Did I interrupt anything?"he asked.
We both shook our heads.
"Good.I'd hate to have interrupted a romantic conversation,"he said with a smirk.
I felt my face get warm,'Shut up!'
'Well,it's true,'he thought.
"Hm?Oh,you're awake!"
I looked behind Trunks and saw a man wearing a white coat walking towards the room.He seemed elderly,his hair and light beard having become grey.
'That's the doctor this house belongs to,'Trunks informed me through his thoughts.
"Your friends were woried.Especially your girlfriend,"the doctor.
Sarah and I both blushed.
"N-N-No!She's not my g-girlfriend!"I exclaimed,my face getting hotter by the second.
"Oh?Well,that's a shame.You two make a cute couple,"he stated.
From how hot my face felt,I thought they could have discovered a new shade of red if they looked at me.
"Please,come into the living room.I'm sure your friends would like to see that you're okay,"the doctor said and walked out.
I took a short moment to look at what I had been sitting on.It was just a regular white sofa.I stood up and we walked out of the room.
