BANG!
I heard the explosion from.. ah, what was it those scientists called it? Oh yes, light years. I heard it light years away. I got up from the comfy red couch and I ran to my window. I saw a small light in the distance. It faded away, and I then turned back around, finding that the house I was just in had disappeared. That was because I willed it to disappear. I was floating in space again, drifting through the stars. Shit. What just happened? I wondered. That seemed pretty far away, but still. I need to get away. My cover could be blown. I couldn't let myself be discovered. I began to fly the opposite direction of which the explosion came from. As I was making progress and distancing myself from the explosion, the thoughts in my head were racing. I couldn't hold onto a single thought, before it evolved (or should I say devolve?) into something else completely differently. My mind finally settled on bringing the past up. The sound of the explosion probably triggered that. Since I was given godly powers, I was able to survive when the world was ending. Even though I didn't feel bad when I took from survivor's supplies, I could still hear their cries and see their tear-streaked and dirt-encrusted faces; begging me to stop. Hey, it was every man for himself. Later on, I taught myself how to manifest certain things. It was only the essentials at first. Food, water, toilet paper, ect. Hell, even toilet paper was a luxury. I remembered looking up at the now red-stained sky and thinking, "What the fuck are you doing up there Yukiteru? I died for a reason, and you're just going to let humanity die out?" I mean, I know I killed lots of people before, but it's not like I was gonna destroy the whole fuckin' world! Well anyway, the world finally fell apart, and I was there to see the whole thing go down. With Deus' powers, I flew off and secluded myself into a house of my very own, complete with all the necessities. I had managed to learn how to manifest bigger things, though it cost me almost all of my energy. The only reason I didn't go bug Yukiteru, or God or whatever the hell he is, is because I knew Murmur was with him. And I knew that poor kid was unstable, what with his girlfriend committing suicide in front of him and all. That confused boy could kill me if he wanted to. All he had to do was order Murmur to do it, and I'd be as good as dead. No, I couldn't risk it. So in the meantime, I decided to retreat to my den and think about how I could go about killing the kid. If he wasn't going to fix this world, I was. Besides, he needed to be put out of his miser-
Thud!
I hadn't even noticed where I was going, until I flew right into something. I instinctively lashed out with the only weapon I had available; my hands. I threw a punch, but my fist got caught. I looked up to see that psychotic bitch with her stupid pink hair, blocking my fist. What the hell is she even doing here? I thought she was dead! Whatever. Didn't matter. I tried to punch her again with my other hand, but she caught that one too. Just what I was hoping for. I pulled my arms apart, causing her to fall forward and get closer to me. Her head bobbed down for the slightest of seconds, and in that moment, I brought my knee up as hard as I could. It hit home with a loud smack! Yuno's guard was brought down, and I managed to break free from her iron grip. I shot upward and was staring at her from above.
"I thought you killed yourself, you little prick!" I yelled at her. As I was staring at her, I realized something was wrong. Her hair was not pink, as I thought it was. It was a light purple. And her skin tone was slightly darker, too. I realized that this was not the dreaded crazy girl, but Murmur, taking Yuno's form. Great. I don't have to worry about that insane girl anymore. No, I have to deal with this demon now. "Oi! You're not Yuno! It's you!" I narrowed my eyes. "Murmur! Care to explain why you're dressed up like that?" I referred to "that" as her outfit with a wave of my hand.
"Listen, you can't speak a word of this to Yukiteru. He'll go crazy. Might even destroy the world he just created. Look, I know you don't want to be seen by Yukiteru. Let's make a compromise. You don't tell him that his precious "Yuno" is me, and I don't tell him that you're still lurking around here. Got it?~" Murmur calmly replied. I was about to object, when I heard a distressed call coming not too far from where we were.
"Yuno! Are you here?!" Yukiteru was flying around aimlessly, searching for his "Yuno". I could tell he was about to break down again from how his voice was cracking, and even from afar, I could see his flushed face and disheveled mess that was his hair. He spotted the girl he was looking for, and he flew right into her, causing her to topple over. "Yuno! What happened? I thought you left me again.." Tears were rolling down his cheeks now. "Yuno" caressed and comforted him, explaining that the force of the explosion caused her to fly back. The sight just sickened me, knowing who Yuno really was, and I let out an involuntary sneer. At this, Yukiteru whipped his head back toward my direction. Shit. I stood still, waiting for any sort of reaction to come. He might rage and charge at me, for reasons unknown, or he might embrace me, also for reasons unknown. I was bracing for impact, trying to expect the unexpected. None of that happened, though. He just seemed to stare straight past me, as if I wasn't even there.
"Yuno? Did you.. did you happen to hear someone..?" Yukiteru questioned her. His eyes were still on me, or rather, just looking in my general direction. I looked at Murmur for answers. She silently put one finger to her lips, signaling me to be quiet, before she turned to Yukiteru and gave her reply.
"You must be imagining things, Yuki. I didn't hear anything." Murmur then proceeded to kiss the God on the cheek.
"You must be right. There's no one left out here but me and you." He agreed, sounding less than convinced. "And Murmur." He added as an afterthought. Yukiteru and the fake Yuno got up and started to fly away. Murmur even managed to wink at me when Yukiteru was looking the other way. Whatever. Guess I can go home for now.
AN: I know this didn't explain as much as I wanted it to, but I plan to elaborate more next chapter. I've kinda been rushing this because I just wanna get to the good part already *wink* Anyways, your reviews are greatly appreciated! Thanks!
