|Weak Hero| Change the Fate's Design

Chapter 21

"Who are you?" Silver demanded.

"My name is Alistair Rei," The teen introduced himself. "I am a member of the Dimensional Travel Agency. You are Donald Na of Universe A-00001," He pointed at Kingsley. "And you are Kingsley Kwan of Universe A-00001,"

"What do you mean by 'these two dimensional anomalies are going to be sent back to their own dimension'?" Kyrie questioned. "Silver and I both died in our universe and were reincarnated into this universe,"

"The two of you were never meant to reincarnate into Universe S-01014," Alistair revealed. "Donald Na was supposed to stay dead in that universe. You, Kingsley, were never supposed to commit suicide. You were supposed to continue the Union until you eventually get murdered too,"

"Then why do Silver Yeon and Kyrie Kwan exist?" Gray spoke up.

"It's because of the dimensional instability that sent them here in the first place," Alistair answered. "We didn't immediately notice the dimensional instabilities because we were preoccupied with fixing other problems at the time,"

"I don't want to go back," Silver refused. "This universe is my home now. These people are my family and my friends,"

"If Silver's staying then I'm staying too," Kyrie added.

"You two don't get a choice," Alistair took out a spherical device. "Everyone else, back up,"

"No," Ben protectively stepped in front of Silver and Kyrie. "They're our friends and they don't want to go with you,"

"It's not up to them to decide if they stay or not," Alistair attempted to walk past Ben, but Ben blocked his path.

"Normally I don't like ganging up on people like Manwol," Jake said. "But given how you're a guy with the ability to travel between universes, you've got to be pretty strong,"

While Alistair was glancing between Ben, Alex, Gerard, Gray, Silver, Kyrie, Rowan, Eugene, Jake, and Jimmy, Jimmy took the chance to lunge for the spherical device. Alistair expected this tossed the device into the air and punched Jimmy in the face. 

But before the fight could continue, Ben, Alex, Gerard, Gray, Rowan, Eugene, and Donald were suddenly hit by another painful vision. All of them fell to their knees and cried out in pain.

Donald limped down the road, allowing the bitterness of a piece of dark chocolate to coat his mouth. He wasn't sure where he was going and his body felt so exhausted from fighting three battles within such a short time, but he kept on walking.

Then he spotted him upon the overpass: the White Mamba. Donald couldn't help but feel joy upon seeing him. He grinned as he called up to him, "HEY! WHITE MAMBA!"

The Eungang all paused and saw Donald standing in the middle of the road below. "What?" Ben exclaimed. "Donald Na!?" The entire group was confused.

"Is he alone?"

"Isn't that Donald Na?"

"Why is he still here?"

"Get down here!" Donald shouted to Gray. "Let's go again!"

"Please..."

Gray could hear the hidden meaning behind Donald's words.

"Please stop me..."

Ben noticed how Donald looked even more injured than when they had last seen him not even an hour ago. "Why does he look like that?"

"He's covered in blood," Rowan added. "But he's standing in the middle of the road..."

"You didn't answer my question!"

"If anyone can do it, it's you,"

Gray heard the rumbling of the loud engine and the truck's honking. His eyes widened in horror. "DONALD! GET OUT OF THE WAY!"

"I said..." Donald took a few steps forward. "Let's fight again,"

"Please...you have to...stop me...White Mamba..."

"GET OUT IF THE WAY DONALD—"

It was too late. Donald Na was struck by the truck and sent flying for a few seconds. In that brief moment, Donald wondered, 'Huh? Why am I...floating? White Mamba, why are you looking at me like that?' He didn't immediately understand Gray's horrified expression. 'Oh, I see. Gray...do you think maybe...if we'd met sooner...we...could have been...friends?'

Another world flashed into his mind. It was a world where he wasn't covered in disgusting tattoos. It was a world where he wasn't a gang leader. It was a world where he was friends with Gray and attended the same high school as him.

Donald's body crashed down onto the asphalt with a loud thud, blood pooling around his head. "Donald..." Gray said in a strained voice. "You idiot..."

"See?" Alistair pointed out to everyone. "This is why those two can't stay here. The memories of Universe A-00001 are leaking into the minds of their Universe S-01014 counterparts!"

Silver clenched his fists. He hated how much pain he had seen his brother and friends in. They were literally screaming. Even though Donald had broken off their friendship, Silver was still concerned about him too.

"Kyrie," Silver said. "We should go back,"

"You'll be dead in that universe!" Kyrie argued.

"I know but these guys are suffering because of us," Silver told him. "Donald probably won't get anymore visions once he reaches the memory of my death," He didn't know what vision they had just witnessed. "And Kingsley will most likely stop getting visions once he reaches your eventual death. Assuming no one else has a short life in our world, these guys will constantly be getting painful visions,"

"Silver, don't go!" Gray grabbed Silver's arm. "You're my brother!" He had already lost Stephen. At least with Stephen, he could eventually reunite with him after he found out where he was. But if Silver and Kyrie left, they'd be gone for good.

"Thank you for being my brother, Gray," Silver smiled sadly. "And everyone else, thank you for being my friends,"

"Silver, Kyrie," Ben and the rest of the Eungang stood back up. "The two of you don't have to go. We just need to beat this guy up and anyone else from that Dimensional Agency who tries to take you guys away!"

Silver and Kyrie (as well as Donald and Kingsley) stood by and watched as they fought. Alistair skillfully dodge and blocked while punching and kicking his opponents. Silver hated this. "Even if they defeat Alistair, they'll just continue sending more people after us. It's futile," 'Is this the frustration Alex felt when Ben fought me in middle school in our original world?'

The sound of metal breaking as if it were glass silenced everyone. Gerard had managed to kick the spherical object out of Alistair's hand. Rowan had attempted to catch it but was too late. The device now laid broken on the ground.

"That's not good," Alistair said as a green light enveloped everyone.

And now it's back to Universe A-00001! Just to clarify, A-00001 is not the Canon Universe. That would be the Core Universe, A-00000. A-00001 is just nearly identical to canon with only minor differences such as something being a different shade of color than canon.
