Chapter six: Regrets covered in Anger
(I really like those comments that are in the story, keep it up { :3}. Now let's get started.)
Jesse's eyes widen in surprise, "I-Ivor!? You remember?"
Ivor looked at Jesse, seeming a little nervous. "Y-y-yes, I g-guess so." Jesse smiled at him, before going up to him and gave a quick hug. Ivor flinched at the sudden hug that Jesse gave him, before he hugged her back. They finally let go of the hug.
"I am so relieved that you remember too." Jesse said to him.
Ivor raised an eyebrow at her before asking her, "Wait. What do you mean by that?"
Jesse responded to his question, "Umm, well... my friends, Olivia and Axel remember as well. You know; about... our adventures."
Ivor nodded his head then stuttered out, "W-well, you do know that this is the day of... you know. The Witherstorm?"
Jesse frowned sadly; she knows that he's right, and that Ivor will have to make the monster again. She also knows that Ivor is really not looking forward to this, because he has told her that he had very bad nightmares and night-terrors about it. He then look back at her and suggested, "Maybe I shouldn't make the Witherstorm."
Jesse's eyes widen in fright, "NO! You have to!" Jesse shouted.
Ivor raised an eyebrow at her before questioned, "And why not?"
Jesse thought about this before explaining, "I-it's because, the truth of the Order of the Stone won't be revealed, my friends and I won't be heroes, and we'll never find the temple. Also we won't be able to stop P.A.M.A. and Hadrian."
Ivor stared at her then sighed, "I... guess you're right about that," he also thought about this before asked, "Hey, Jesse. Do you know why some people remember about all of this but some don't?"
Jesse thought about this for a moment before she theorized, "Well, maybe because it starts with the people who I care about the most, then it will make the other ones remember later on."
Ivor stared at her before asked, "Umm... you care about me?" Jesse shrugged then nodded, "Ya, I-I mean... you are my friend after all."
Ivor lightly smiled at her and said, "W-well it's nice, that you care about me."
Jesse blushed a light pink before chuckling nervously, shuffling her feet from side to side. "Yeah well, umm..."
"Ivor." A voice said from behind her, and it was Petra. Ivor turned to face her and stuttered a bit, "O-oh, there s-she is."
"Sorry I'm late." Petra apologized, standing next to Jesse.
'Actually he was late.' Jesse thought in her head. Petra just shrugged, "But, all good things are worth waiting for."
"Y-yes." Ivor nodded before frowning sadly at Jesse. She felt really bad now.
"I've got the thing you asked for." Petra pointed out to him, before Jesse finished with, "IF, you have what you promised us."
Ivor seemed taken back by how good Jesse's acting was. He quickly shake the thought away, before eyeing at Petra, "Y-you never said that there was an us when we first met; and I don't like surprises."
'Who doesn't?' Jesse thought to herself. Ivor continued talking, "If these are the type of people you associated with, maybe we should call the whole thing off."
Petra's eyes widen in shock and shook her head before facing Jesse, "No, no my friend's alright with that, right Jesse? There's no problem here. Let's not jump to any conclusions."
"I'm cool if he's cool." Jesse smiled at him, telling Petra that she fine with this. Petra nodded at her answer, "It's settled then; Your both cool."
"P-proceed then." Ivor informed her, Petra agreed and gave Ivor her Wither Skull. Ivor stared at the dusty skull, looking rather grim about this being in his hands. Petra then looked at him and said, "I'll take that diamond now."
Ivor looked back at her and nodded, "Oh, y-ya. Take it, you earned it." He then pointed to the chest behind them.
Petra and Jesse turned around to see the chest and walked up to it. Jesse quickly looked back at Ivor and he mouth out, "I'm sorry..." he quickly got out a potion of swiftness and started running.
Petra opened the chest, her expression changed from happy to frustrated, and Jesse said. "Umm.. This isn't a diamond."
"No! It's lapis." Petra growled in anger, turning her head to see that Ivor was gone. "Of all the dirty, rotten tricks to pull."
"Let's go after him." Jesse suggested. Petra agree with that idea and they started running in the direction that Ivor ran.
"Either I'm getting that diamond, or I'm getting my skull back." Petra trying to decide on what to do when they catch him. Jesse then suggested, "Or you can make him pay. Right? Right?"
They continued running till they stopped seeing that they've lost him in the convention.
"Come on, let's split up and try to find him." Petra announced to her before heading out. Jesse nodded and looked around the convention.
Jesse then briefly saw Gabriel walking to the building that held the Key-note. The fans saw him and tried to get to him. "There he is. Gabriel! Gabriel!" A fan shouted out, a few bumped into Jesse before they were stopped by the usher.
Jesse sighed, slightly frowning about the fact that he probably doesn't remember either. She then spotted Lukas by a booth near the DJ.
She hoped that someday, the rest of her friends will remember.

(I really like writing this chapter because I get to write Ivor's lines for this and how he will feel about creating the Witherstorm again. Also he's my favorite character. We'll see what happens in the next chapter. Bye.)
