Chapter 12: Therapy, Session 3

I'm sugar high again, baby! Take my advice, twelve candy bars plus six sodas makes for a bitch'n day. Therapy is back! Rogers is in for a loooooong day. Today, he talks to everyone about their problems. As I stated previously, there are two new patients joining in this chapter. Enjoy.

Thom, Jen, Greed, and Kimblee walk into Mr. Rogers's office for the third time. They look over and notice that there are two more desks than usual. As Mr. Rogers enters the room, the door opens and Envy and Ed are pushed inside by Dante and Pride.

Thom looks over at them and exclaims, "Ha, vengeance for yesterday! You guys shouldn't have laughed!"

Envy shoots him a venomous glare and says, "Shut up, Thom."

Ed takes a seat by Thom and Greed, while Envy takes the seat by Jen and Kimblee.

Mr. Rogers smiles at them happily and says, "Hello friends. I'm glad we're together again."

Thom yells, "Screw off, Rogers!"

Rogers frowns and says, "Thomas, do I have to call security again?"

Thom shoots him a malicious look and says, "No."

Rogers smiles again and says, "Now, today I will talk to you about your personal problems. I'd like to ask everyone but Thomas and Greed to wait outside of the room."

After everyone else left, Mr. Rogers turned to the two of them and said, "Now, I'd like to know why you are constantly drinking, smoking, and flirting with loose women."

Thom replies, being a smart ass, "Because it's fun."

Greed nods in agreement.

Rogers said, "Alright, Greed could you please leave the room and ask Jennifer to come in?"

After Greed left and Jen took his seat, Mr. Rogers continued, "Now, we need to talk about your sibling rivalry issues."

Jen says in an irritated tone, "What is there to talk about? We want to kill each other, end of story."

"Okay, Thomas, can you leave and send Zolf in here?"

After he left and Kimblee came in, Rogers said, "Now then, Jennifer, I would like to know why you feel you must always hit Zolf."

"He tries hitting on me so many times that it just gets annoying. It wouldn't bother me so much if he would keep his hands to himself and stop making suggestive statements," she said.

"Well, now I think that we have found the problem in this relationship. Could the two of you go outside and sent Edward and Envy in?"

After they switched, Mr. Rogers continued again. "I heard that you two have problems with your father. Let's talk about that."

Envy snapped back, "Hoenhiem is not my father anymore. He may have been when I was human, but now he is just the guy who created and abandoned me."

Rogers said, "Edward lets hear from you."

Ed said, "That bastard abandoned us and I will never forgive him!"

"We're done now. Envy, could you ask the others to come back in please?"

After everyone had taken their seats, Rogers said, "I'd like you all to go take a lunch break. Be back here in an hour."

After they left the room, Mr. Rogers pulled a tape recorder from his desk drawer and spoke into it, saying, "I have found the roots of everyone's problems. Edward and Envy have abandonment issues with their father. Thomas has a drinking and smoking problem. Jennifer has issues with Zolf. Greed, well, if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all, Rogers."

An hour later, the group returned. Mr. Rogers greeted them cheerfully and said, "I've evaluated you all and I think that I have found solutions to your problems. Thomas, Greed, I propose that the two of you give up smoking, drinking, and loose women until our next session. Edward, Envy, I recommend that the two of you find your father and try to work your abandonment issues out peacefully. Jennifer, I suggest that you and Zolf go out on one date and see how it goes."

The scene ends with Rogers smiling happily and the rest of them with anime bulgy eyes.
