Lust for Power

I did not think something that insane could happen, I stood there watching my best pal destroying someone, while ruining his own life. I don’t think it was all just for revenge.

That amulet ate his soul, and he let it.

It was only right after he disappeared, Roon being sent to the hospital right now, I don’t think he’ll ever walk again, although he was really a prick, I don’t think he deserved to be crippled for life, but then again I don’t know. I went outside and bought some soda, I was still trembling from the adrenaline. Everyone’s still in a panic, classes were suspended, although no one wanted to make an official report to spread any unnecessary panic. It was also a little too incredible for anyone to believe anyway. I drank my soda straight from the bottle while I was sitting on the store’s ledge out front when out of nowhere a whole sheet of pad paper just dropped in front of me, there were words written in a very familiar messy hand writing. It read:

“Ter, you piece of shit, can’t believe you was just staring slack jawed the whole time I was raising hell back there xD” I kinda chuckled inside but I looked around to see if Aer was around, no trace. I read on, I was still trembling, I spilled my soda. “Look, I’m sorry man, now I can’t show my face around here no more, uhn, well, I don’t think I can right now, not that I’m scared anyone would see me, I wouldn’t know how to look you, or Sen in eye anymore and just mess around like I’m not some kind of monster. Speaking of Senna, I’m leavin her in your hands, I kno u a perv bruh, but I know youre a good man, you don’t have to like her, but if you do I don’t mind, also, please don’t tell her I really liked her, she doesn’t have to--- I just, if possible help her forget me, do it for me. I’ll leave my mom a letter too, you can stop by at my place anytime. Just don’t look for me, one day we’ll see eachother again, I’m always just around, man, you know that. And I will shit on the world like how it shits on itself and how it shat on us. Yes, with this power, and overtime, I will only have more. Still, take care of yourself man, and Senna..”

I didn’t know what to say, I folded the paper, kept it with me, and finished my drink before I went to check on Senna, who was actually doing better than I was from the shock. All I understand is, that idiot Aries threw everything away, all for his stupid lust for power.
