Soul Eater Post

chapter 16

The next morning we met in the sitting area of the hotel.

"Everyone ready? We will walk a little, find either a hotel or a place to camp then make it to the airship port." I started.

Everyone nodded. We made our way out and started heading towards the port.

"Should we stop and get something to eat before getting too far?" Tsubaki suggested.

"I am ok with that." Kid agreed.

"Same." Everyone agreed.

Everyone nodded. We found a small diner not too far from the hotel. We sat for a little while discussing how we were going to get there and arguing with Dragedge again about the airship. A few hours later we resumed our walk.

"It's going to be another two or so days to get there." I continued.

I coughed a little. 'Why can't I shake this?' I thought to myself.

"You're still not feeling good?" Hatori asked.

"I can't seem to shake this one. It's bad." I responded.

"I am not looking forward to that." Dragedge whined.

"We are all well aware of that." I responded, flicking him.

We noticed a crowd of people running.

"What's happening?" Black Star asked, grabbing one of the people running.

"The warehouse is being attacked." They responded, pointing to a large building.

We looked at eachother and started running towards the warehouse. I called my father and got word of a kishin in the area. We were given the go ahead to take care of it.

"We don'tdont know how strong this kishin is or if he is alone. We need to be careful." I reminded everyone.

Everyone nodded. We opened the door. After entering one of the rooms I noticed a familiar smell. We opened the door cautiously. The gas hit me like a freight train.

"Hatori, Dragedge..." is all I was able to get out before my mind went foggy.

I stumbled a little. Dragedge recognized it instantly. Everyone else looked worried and confused.

"Crap." He exclaimed.

"What's wrong? Grim, are you ok?" Victor asked.

I couldn't answer. I fell to my knees.

"It's the same gas as before..." Dragedge continued.

I could hear what was going around me but couldn't respond.

"We need to air out the warehouse and find the witch and kishin immediately. Hatori, and Victor stay with her, it's about to get bad, Kid if you want you can stay too. The rest come with me. We need to be fast." Dragedge instructed.

Everyone nodded.

'I woke up on the ground, everything was white and foggy. I could hear someone calling my name.

"Grim!" I heard in the distance. Following the voice, I saw Kid looking around.

"Kid." I sighed with relief.

The closer I walked the further he felt away from me. Suddenly he vanished, leaving behind a pool of what looked like blood. Confused and panicking, I ran around trying to figure out what was happening. I saw another figure in the distance. Hesitating, I walked closer, it was Dragedge. He was smiling. As I walked closer he too vanished the same way as Kid. Tearing up I felt bits of madness shoot from my body. I ran for what felt like an hour, screaming, crying hoping for anyone to hear me. Felt a chill flow through my body, through the tears and madness I saw yet another figure. Fearing the outcome I decided to stand still. As he came closer to view my breath left my body. It was my old friend Jet.'
