The Good Loser
The name I used here in this world should be quite familiar.
Misogi Kumagawa.
Of course that's not my real name in any manner, I'm not even Japanese. My parents in this world were, however. It was when I was 7 that I started to get some of my real memories back, I… didn't take the fact that I was stuck here well. My parents in this world were actually quite afraid of me, even though I didn't want to worry them. Despite not being real, well… no I guess maybe they were real in a sense. Just not real to me. I didn't want to make them feel shitty about themselves, they did raise me after all.
I snap my fingers and another color fades away from the world.
If this was going to be the end of this story, why not make it go out with a bang?
Green. Blue. Red. Yellow. Purple. Orange. Brown.
And then so on and so forth until just two remained.
White and Black.
Now the whole world was going to look like one big manga scene happening all at once, it's actually very interesting to see things like this.
My real name is Jay.
No, I won't tell you my last name, after all I have to preserve some sort of anonymity. And I think just telling you my first name is more than enough, it means I view you as important enough to acknowledge that I care what you all think.
I genuinely hope that you don't think any less of me for spilling forth a little bit of emotion towards the end, I learned quite a bit about myself. I have certain values and certain things to look forward to after this all comes to a close, what those things are… well even I don't know yet. I like the mystery element, to spoil myself would simply ruin my chance at having some fun.
Yeah, I think that the surprise will be much nicer if I don't do the equivalent of peeking before it's ready.
Anyways, I have to admit… these last ten days had been rather interesting. I can only wonder if it was because of me, or was it because of the circumstances that lead me to this point, that this last week or so had been very interesting. I wonder if the next journey will be nearly as interesting, my eyes are a bit heavy honestly.
I… had fun. I enjoyed it all while it lasted, I really did. Even for all of my own issues.
Heh, though, I suppose it doesn't really matter in the end.
It's all just… Fiction.
My eyes close as I move on.
I make sure the world around me is fixed, all the colors going back to their proper place at the last possible moment, I'm not that much of a dick… though I make sure that all villains will have to wear pink for about the next 20 years, and yes I mean all villains. Heroes instead get hot pink, jut to be fair. Anyways, I'm not going to die, not today. However, I won't exactly be here either… I'll instead be somewhere else. This was practically the only possible way to save this world from outright vanishing. Let's hope it works.
It's not really a perfect win, but I can accept this loss if it works.
I ascend as the world around me distorts.
I wake up.
What do I see?
The end of the world.
