Sebastien was sitting on the floor in his bedroom later that night. He had dug out a folder of pictures that Will had drawn out of his desk drawer. The boy was sure he had more papers floating around somewhere but he didn't have the energy to search for them.
He'd been staring at the same picture for the past ten minutes. It was his absolute favorite Will had drawn.
There were five people, DND characters to be exact, all drawn in different stances with amazing detail. They were facing a giant two-headed snake. The character drawn as Sebastien, who was the party's druid, was in a fighting stance but his hands were out with the palms up. A green glow surrounded him and vines were dancing around his feet. As a druid, Sebastien's character had a special connection with plants, allowing him to wield their powers.
Sebastien smiled sadly. His eyes landed on Will's character, which was positioned next to Dustin's. All the blonde boy could think about was that he would never see his best friend again, and it was killing him.
--------------------
It was around 8:00 the next morning and Dakota, who was supposed to be in school, was walking up the street to Jonathan's house. He offered to go with the boy and his mother to do all the things they had to do today. Which was to see Will's body and go to the funeral home to pick out a casket. Jonathan graciously agreed, wanting the moral support.
Dakota had finally made it as the small family was leaving the house.
"Hey." Dakota waved, adjusting the bag that was slung over his shoulder.
"Hey, Koda. Ready?" Jonathan asked softly.
Dakota nodded, walking up to the car. He climbed in the back, not wanting to impose more than he already has.
"Hey, Ms. Byers. How's it going?" Dakota breathed out.
Joyce glanced back at him and Dakota could see the pain in her eyes. "Hi, Dakota." Was all she said back.
Since Dakota wasn't family, he wasn't allowed back with Jonathan and Joyce. So, he sat in the waiting room with Chief.
"I'm pretty sure they're racist." Dakota slumped down in his chair.
