A new life started for Eridan, another chance to find the boy who consumed his last life. He was a much more regal person in this life. He was well educated but not very well known. His life soon became an endless cycle. Wake up, get ready for the day, eat, work, come home, eat, sleep. Then it would repeat the next day. And the day after. And the next. It was always the same. Even his dreams. His dreams were always about the boy.
The boy, Sollux, on the other hand was not nearly as regal as Eridan. He was an ordinary student. He was the same way. Wake up, get ready, eat, school, homework, eat, sleep. Over and over and over. And his dreams were the same way. They were always about one thing. Eridan.
But once again. They wouldn't meet in this life. There was a horrible fire at Sollux's school. And unfortunately he couldn't get out in time. And that day Eridan was visiting the area near the school. When Sollux died, Eridan felt like a piece of him was ripped away. He didn't know what it was or why he felt it. But the pain lingered for the rest of that life.
So once again they didn't meet. And poor Eridan was left with the pain of a lifetime. Maybe they can finally meet in the next life. No one really knows though. No one can tell.
