Chapter 13

(Are we finally getting somewhat close to the ending of Battle Tendency, or at least the halfway point? Perhaps, either way, I hope you keep on enjoying this. Also, take this drawing. Fun fact; a good way to tell if Narcissistic Cannibal is in control of M/n is if you can see his pupils or not. No pupils means his stand is in control. I like to think this is what Bluford saw when he hurt M/n by crushing his skull. Smoke changing his ichor to red blood all while he remained smiling, no visible damage besides for a bloody nose.)

Title: If you were in my shoes, you'd walk the same damn miles I do!

"To me, you are still nothing more than a little mortal who is just like a hundred thousand other little mortal men hoping for the world. Had you not been the first and only thing I'd seen, been the person I fell in love with, then I'd have no need of you. And you, on your part, must have no need of me. It's clear in your reactions that you fear me. Don't you? To you, well, I am little more than a monster that threatens you. But if you tame me, little master, then we shall need each other beyond everything. Wouldn't that be wonderful? To me, you are already the most unique thing in the world, but, to you, I could be something unique in the world. If you tame me, it will be as if the sun rises for us alone. I know the sound of you, your heart, your steps, your breath, and you differ from all the others. Another mortal won't send my heart aflutter the way you do. I howl to no god, no celestial body, and the stars hold no sway over me. Is that not sad? But you have the stars in your eyes the moment I saw them. Think how lovely it'll be when you tame me. The sky, which remains outside my mind, will be a constant reminder of you and what you meant to me.

Please, little master, there is no way to rid me of you, so tame me!"

Joseph groaned, hand rubbing at his shoulder blades, while his eyes remained focused on the god walking ahead of him. M/n had finally changed back from his god form and, given how much he was mumbling to himself, he was clearly trying to plan out his conversation with Santana. Since he kept on grimacing, Joseph had the distinct feeling that it wouldn't go well.

"I think I used my head a little bit too much last time."

"Oh, why?" Tilting his head, the god spun on his heels to be walking backwards. Joseph rolled his shoulders with another groan, causing M/n to tap his heels and stop walking for a moment. "Did you tear something?"

"Maybe. My shoulders are real sore...they just feel so heavy."

"I think I have some oils that could be massaged into them to get rid of the tension."

"Do you really? Or are you just hoping to get me alone in the showers?"

"That offer was a kindness, not a requirement, trickster. Do you want oils or not?"

"I'll behave...for now."

"...?" The god sighed in annoyance. "I'll take what I can get."

My mother's been calling for me, poor dear, for I have no plans of answering. The sea, my mother, calls and weeps for me whilst I am left mesmerized by the stars. The sea will end up screaming, howling, beckoning, yelling, all for me, yet it becomes drowned and washed out in the wake of the celestials.

They will always shine a thousand times brighter than the glimmer of the ocean.

"The sun's risen." Lisa Lisa whispered out, thumb running over the center of the red stone, yet the warmth produced by the gem did nothing to comfort her nerves. Her mind ran through the many possibilities. Even in the sun's light, she felt as if she was drowning in the heat of a volcano, but she refused to falter. "The tests are ending, and soon the two students, Caesar and Jojo, will be making their way back here. I'll receive the results and we'll be one step closer to the final confrontation. That is all."
