The Wolf's Heart Of Change

Chapter 14 - Emotions

Having packed all the things he would need into just three bags, he set off towards the nearest airport. He had three days to walk there, though it only took two.

'Him': "One day early. I'm probably going to need that time to rest."

-------

Nova: "We are going on the same day."

'Him': "Yes indeed."

Nova: "What seat are you in?"

'Him': "I don't remember. I'm somewhere in the middle, I think."

Nova: "Me too. How long have you been here?"

'Him': "A while."

Nova: "Did you walk here?"

'Him': "Might have done."

Nova: "I would have driven you here if you'd said."

'Him': "It's fine."

-------

'Him': "Here we are."

Nova: "Yeah. I thought the flight would be boring before I got on the plane but I was wrong."

'Him': "Me too."

Nova: "I guess this is goodbye then."

'Him': "For now."

Nova: "See you again soon?"

'Him': "Yes, see you soon."

Arriving in Utah, 'he' walked as fast as he could to the pizzaplex with three bags. It wasn't too far, luckily, but certainly far enough. Upon arriving, it was strangely quiet. Almost no one about. Going to his hideout, he put the three bags down with the few belongings he had had the last time he was there. He walked around the building, finding none of the band.

'Him': "This is... odd. Maybe they're just out in town or something."

So he left and began to amble around aimlessly. Taking note of the crowd up ahead, he stopped.

'Him': "Uhh... what's happening here? Wait, there's Freddy, Chica, and Monty. Where's Roxanne?"

The whole crowd was staring straight up. Following the gaze, he saw something atop the building they were stood at the base of. It was dark so it was difficult to make out what it was.

'Him': "Whaaa...? ROXY!"

He took off into the building, ignoring the staff asking him to leave and charged up the stairs. Climbing up and up. Making it to the roof and stepping out cautiously, looking around. There she was. Standing at the edge. Roxanne took a deep breath and stepped off the edge of the roof. He leapt forward, grabbing onto her left wrist as she began to fall. Her momentum and weight pulled him over too. The crowd on the floor could do nothing but watch as the pair began to fall. He caught the edge of the roof with his left hand, causing them to stop suddenly. He held on desperately.

Roxy: "What? LET ME GO!"

'Him': "NO!"

Roxy: "I HAVE NOTHING LEFT!"

'Him': "THAT'S NOT TRUE!"

Roxy: "YOU LEFT ME!"

'Him': "I'M HERE NOW!"

Roxy: "IT'S TOO LATE! JUST LET ME GO!

'Him': "IF I LET GO OF ANYTHING, IT WILL BE THE WALL, NOT YOU!"

Roxy: "WHY!? YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT ME!"

'Him': "IF YOU FALL THEN I'M GOING WITH YOU! I HAVE NOTHING LEFT TOO, THAT'S WHY I CAME BACK! I WAS NEVER GONE FOREVER ANYWAY!"
