Dawn's Destiny

Forbidden Rage and Sadness ~ Chapter 75

Marth and Ephraim smiled in excitedness as Kazuha and Yae Miko slammed onto the ground hard. The bomb instantly exploded in the process.

"WHAT A GLORIOUS SCENE!! AHAHAHAH!!! HAHAHA!!! THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!" Marth laughed as the two drove toward where the bomb exploded. All you could see was nothing. Their bodies immediately perished from the explosion.

Ephraim laughed, "Dead... dead like they deserve to be..." Marth smiled manically and proceeded to laugh as hard as he could. "Yes... the heroes have less and less members, soon we'll crush them down and MURDER THEM ALL!!"

"DAMN RIGHT EPHRAIM! YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT BUSINESS WE ARE TALKING ABOUT!" Marth laughed as the two high fived. Then they got on the bus and drove off trying to find the bus again. Mario managed to camouflage the bus somewhere and watched in horror as Kazuha and Yae Miko's communicator symbols went red.

"No..."

"What?! WHAT?!?" Mario slammed his head on the wheel as the rest of the heroes checked their communicators. They looked at one another in horror as they noticed their signals went red as well.

Chrom screamed, "NOOOOOOOOO!!!! WHY!!!!" He slammed his head against the seat and instantly began to cry. The heroes looked over at Chrom.

"Chrom!"

"SHUT IT!! WHY AM I THE ONLY PERSON WHO FEELS REMORSE FOR THOSE WE LOSE?!!? ARE YOU GUYS SIMPLY PEOPLE WHO DON'T FEEL ANYTHING!?"

"Chrom we feel what you're feeling-"

"If you knew you would be acting the same. I don't care what excuses any of you heroes give, I'm tired of you guys not even giving a single damn feeling to those we keep losing, you should all be ASHAMED!"

Alear took a deep breath and went to Chrom explaining, "We share the same feelings with one another, but letting those feelings get the best of us isn't going to change anything. We're only going to be weighed down more and more."

Chrom replied, "You're absolutely wrong, there's no reason for you TO BOTTLE UP THOSE EMOTIONS WITHIN YOU! You are absolutely not happy with yourself and you NEVER WILL BE AT THIS RATE! The best way to prove yourself strong is by proving that you DON'T bottle your emotions. It's unhealthy for all of us."

"Chrom, don't you realize that we have no choice-"

"I'm done."

"WHAT?!" Chrom took off his communicator on the ground and threw it onto the ground. "Chrom you cannot be serious right now?!" Byleth walked up to Chrom as he immediately slapped him out of his face.

Chrom explained, "If you guys can't prove yourselves to be worthy of the title of being heroes. I have no right to be with you." The heroes watched as Chrom jumped off the bus. All of them dashed after him trying to explain their reasons as to why they needed him.

"Chrom! You have no idea how much of a big mistake you're making! We need you at all costs! We can't lose you yet!"

"I don't care what ANY of you say, this is unhealthy for me to be around people WHO DO NOT LET THEIR EMOTIONS OUT. You guys are all wonderful people, but not even I feel welcomed. I feel outcasted, I feel different. Forget it, we're done," Chrom replied. He looked at his bracelet Claude gave him and took a deep breath.

Alear sighed, "Chrom... we love you as we love you as family... please for the love of Michael... don't leave us."

"I have no choice, I need to get healthier. I know how much you guys love me. I just... can't anymore. I can't deal with this anymore. From the bottom of my heart, I cannot deal with this anymore. It's becoming tiring for me. I just... want it to be over," Chrom whispered. Slowly walking away from the bus.

Alear screamed, "CHROMMMMMMMMMM!!! DON'T YOU DARE LEAVE US!!!!!!!"

"CHROM COME BACK!!!"

"CHROM!!!!!!!" Chrom silenced the voices away from him as he continued walking away. Then he looked down at his watch. Pausing before it.

Time whispered, "Chrom you can't be making this decision. You know how much they mean to you and me. We have to do this for Dawn-"

"I can't Time,"

"WHAT?!"

"I can't... I don't have the courage, the energy... Why did you choose me? I can't guide them, not in this state... I'm sorry but I can't... no matter what you ask of me, I can't..." Chrom took off the necklace and threw it on the ground.

Time screamed, "CHROM!!!" Then he slammed his foot on the watch. It instantly broke as Chrom fell down onto the ground in tears.

"I... I can't... do it... anymore..."
