The Purple Shard

Chapter 4 [Old]

Aphmau's POV

I wake up as one thought is in my head, I am so sorry Emmalyn... I try to get up but I feel a jerking pain in my right arm and especially my hand, the one I used to grab the shard. It wasn't purple and black but hurt like the Nether. I turn my head only to see Laurence, watching me... Sleep...? Again?... I finally saw the bright shining sun appear in front of my eyes. "Laurance didn't we talk about this? I always disappear like this.." "Wait! I just started to go jumping to conclusions" I laughed which then turned into a cough. I tried to play it off but Laurance didn't believe any of it. "Aphmau, what's wrong?" He asked "nothing nothing just um...." I grabbed my arm. The pressure he out on my arm was too much all I remembered was Laurance running out the door.

Emmalyn POV

Kenmur had been trying for hours trying to cheer me up. Instead he made things worse. "Em..." I told him I was thankful for his help but I needed time alone. He left. And then Katelyn came in. I never really had a bonding with her. She would always be far away from me. I don't even know if she thought I existed."Emmalyn right?" She asked. I nodded my head. She sat down on the chair and pulled her sky blue hair back."Aphmau is dying." I stopped breathing for a second Aphmau is dying? WHY? "Why is she dying?" "Well she is in a deep deep sleep and Zoey cannot wake her up. But she did notice a purple and black substance on her arm." I then hit the table "ZOEY AND I STRICTLY TOLD HER NOT TO ACTIVATE THAT POW-" "but she didn't Laurance says that was went into that dream world. She reappeared coughing and then passed out. We don't know if she is going to make it or not." "What is it in for me? She told me to leave her alone after all...she hates me the last person she wants is me to save her life." "She asked for you specifically... Please come help her" I didn't want to go but my feet made me run faster and faster to Aphmau. The minute I looked at her only 2 words could escape my lips, "Oh no..."

Emmalyn's POV

Her side, overtaken by darkness. Her skin, purple and black emitting particles. Her face, almost completely consumed by this corrupt substance. Her eyes, sparkling even with one completely purple. Worst of all, her right arm, translucent. I could barely see but instead of blood flowing through her veins, there was pitch black liquid in it's place. Yet you could see a faint smile curled on her lips. I cried and cried sitting beside her, Katelyn and Laurance left to let me talk with Aphmau in private.

"Don't cry," she tells me, "At least one of my eyes are purple, my favorite color!"

A chuckle while choking on tears as she attempts to do jazz hands. Instead, she puts her hands down as a clear expression of pain washes of her face.

"I'm fine Emmalyn, don't worry," she says, "it's nothing serio- *Cough*" I didn't know what to do. She was in deep pain I know it but she held that smile "Emmalyn, I felt horrible after the conflict...I just don't want prove to show that my life has another thing to carry...and me! Irene! I don't even look like her..." "APHMAU!" Both of her eyes were purple and she stopped breathing. I cried. I couldn't do anything. I am hoping that my tears would heal her but I knew that couldn't happen.

3rd Person

Aphmau was left in the tree due to the substance on her body. her whole body infected the tree making it purple. Laurance couldn't believe it. His love of his live was dead. He cried for days and days. Soon he left Phoenix Drop to go live with Cadenza in Metelli. Katelyn left as well to find Abby and Emmalyn and Kenmur stayed. Kawaii~Chan was devastated. She dyed her hair gray. Aphmau was a BIG part of everyone's life but she wasn't here anymore. Aphmau was still in body. She was never released.

Aphmau's POV

It was days until I found a way back to my dream world again. It didn't do any good. I missed everyone. I miss Levin and Mal- Then a flash came towards me. "Z-Z-ZOEY?!"
