Chap. 4: How Far Do I Need To Go?

Morty lay in his bed after his surgery, all alone. He longed to see Will, but he couldn't. He was going home that day, and waited for Eusine to arrive. He smiled, plotting wheat he would do when he got back. No sooner did he think it when he heard the jingle of car keys. Eusine poked his head in.

"Ready to go?" the Suicune-fanatic asked.

"Yeah."

Morty stood, leaning on Eusine's shoulder. He smiled.

Later, when he got back, Eusine sat in the living room with a book on legendary Pokemon. Morty sat in his room, with a pen and paper. He wrote a brief message, then dug under his bed. He took a quick gulp of alcohol, then pulled out a small black bag.

Eusine sat in a chair and heard the loud earsplitting bang that followed. He sat up, his 'paternal' instincts kicking in.

"Morty!" he squeaked.

He ran into Morty's room, and what he saw took a few seconds to register. Morty was facedown on the bed, with a bottle of whiskey by his side. What made Eusine scream, however, was the gun still in Morty's hand. His head oozed dark, sticky blood all over the pillow. Eusine trembled.

"Morty....no.....NO!" he cried out. He saw the note, and picked it up to read it.

"'...I'll love Will until I die....'" He read. "I thought he was over him! My god.....I need to call Karen!"

"He....WHAT?!" Karen hollered. Tears streamed down her face. Will stood nearby.

"What happened?" he asked. Karen hushed him.

"I'll tell him, Eusine. Thanks......bye."

Will approached Karen, looking frightened.

"Is it about Morty?" he asked.

"Will....Morty killed himself."

In a state of pure shock, Will screamed. He ran out of Karen's room, through Bruno's and Koga's, and into his own room. There, he threw himself onto his bed and began sobbing his eyes out.

"He can't be gone! He can't leave me!" Will sobbed.

"He said he'd love you until he died." Karen sadly informed him.

"Kiss my ass, bitch." Will snapped.

"Will!" Karen gasped.

"Karen, let the boy cry it out." Koga told her, putting a hand on her shoulder.

"Poor Will, though. Can you imagine how he must feel?"

"Indeed. And imagine is all I can do. He must be devastated."

"Shove it up your ass, ninja-boy." Will growled.

"Someone's cranky." Bruno said from behind the other two.

"Bruno!" Karen said, elbowing him in the nads. "Will's boyfriend just committed suicide!"

"Morty?!" Bruno gasped. "No way! Oh, Will...."

"Don't try to comfort me! It doesn't matter anymore!" Will screamed into his pillow. "Get out! Everyone! Right now!"

"Emergency meeting in my room, guys...." Karen said.
