Blazing Skies
VIII- Ashes
The Void. Surprisingly nice place to hang out, oddly enough. Despite the fact that it looks like something out of a Kubrick movie, it’s amazingly easy to maneuver, once you get the gist of it. I’m currently orbiting what I assume to be a variant of some Power Rangers world. Which one, I have no frickin clue. But that’s the least of my concerns.
“Ben… cast me aside? Why… Why would he do this to me? I thought I found a friend among the Displaced… But he thinks I’m a monster… Me! I didn’t mean to hurt him… I just wanted… to see another Displaced that I could honestly meet with, and be friendly to. The Makuta’s scary… and I know he’s just playing games with me… I can’t relate with those Puella Magi girls… But you were the only Displaced I could connect to...”
“I just… I just wanted a friend, damnit! Mi dispiace! Mi dispiace! I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I never wanted to hurt him! I lost my cool! I won’t do it again! I promise! Please, Ben! PLEASE! DON’T LEAVE ME ALONE! BE MY FRIEND! DON’T LET HER HURT ME! DON’T ABANDON ME!” I look out at the Void. “ARE YOU JUST GONNA LET ME ROT HERE? HUH? WELL, HOW ABOUT THIS? INCINERATE!” I burn the Void.
I hear nothing.
“FIRE BLAST!” Silence.
“DON’T IGNORE ME! BURN! SCREAM! DO SOMETHING! JUST… PAY ATTENTION TO ME! LISTEN TO ME! DIE! DIE, DIE, DIE!”
The Void isn’t phased.
“WHY WON’T YOU LISTEN TO ME? AM I NOT STRONG ENOUGH? HUH? THEN I’LL BECOME STRONG ENOUGH! I’LL BE THE STRONGEST THERE EVER WAS! I’LL BE SO STRONG THAT NOBODY CAN IGNORE ME! I’LL ANNIHILATE EVERYTHING THAT STANDS IN MY WAY! STARTING WITH THOSE WRETCHED PRINCESSES! I’LL GROW SO STRONG THAT NOTHING CAN BEAT ME! I WON’T STOP! SO, C’MON! I’LL TAKE ON THE WHOLE UNIVERSE IF I HAVE TO!”
Silence. It’s taunting me, I know it is!
“YOU WANNA GO? HUH? I’LL TAKE YOU ON! I’LL DO IT! I’LL BEAT DOWN THOSE STUPID PRINCESSES NO MATTER WHAT! I WILL WIN! I’LL KILL THEM! I’LL KILL THEM AND EVERYONE ELSE! NOTHING CAN STOP ME!”
I’ll just wait… Yes, I’ll just wait. I’ll wait until the time is right, to get my revenge. I’ll get them… Yes, I will get them… I’ll get them all… Then nobody can look down on me. I’ll be the strongest. The strongest there ever could be. Everyone will respect me, for once. I’ll be a real figure of power. I’ll be a warrior. Yes, I’ll just wait. Just… wait…
Whew! I was beginning to think you forgot! Also, did I miss that update with Ben, or was it not posted yet?
So you know, you have permission to post that crossover with Ben already. I'm not gonna be able to get to that point for a while, especially not with how my readers voted.
6168935 Not posted yet. But worry not, I shall be fixing that soon enough.
6168936 Seriously? Well, I was more or less waiting on you. It'll be ready in about a day or two. Maybe more. I have Destiny, Bloodborne, and other games to play with my BRAND NEW PS4 *FANGASMS INTENSELY*
Sorry 'bout that. Anyways, yeah. I'll do it.
6169484 And 15 weeks later, still nothing is posted.
Also, you don't post links to the appropriate chapters, so we have to read through other people's fics in their entireties just to get to the one chapter we want to read with Geo in it. Not a good idea at all.
Also, I don't think Geo is anywhere in that Ben 10 fic.
So, umm.
Where's the first crossover chapter with Gilgamesh? It's been over a month and a half.
Let alone the actual crossover chapters after that first bout.
6662249 … Sorry, been really busy lately. It's almost ready.
6662824 Thank you.
That was all I wanted to know.
