Chapter 49; Goodbye Dr Death Defying..
-In memory of our beloved My Chemical Romance, I would like to dedicate this chapter to them as a small gift. They have helped me and so many other people through so many things and I wish I could thank them in person for that amazing feat.
I miss them, I won’t lie. I cried so much when I found out they were gone, not because they were done exactly, more because others wouldn’t have more music from them, maybe others had just found them.
I wish I could give every single one of them a hug and say Thank You from all of us, but I wouldn’t be able to do that. I would cry too much, even though I promised them I wouldn’t.
I sent my letter to Gerard a little while ago, I don’t know if he’s got it yet or whatever, but I hope he sees it and understands how much he meant to all of us.
Thank You My Chemical Romance, not for being a band, my favourite band, but for being my life.<3 x x

-Ray’s P.O.V-
Gerard, Mikey, Frank and I looked down at him, he looked so peaceful. We all had tears in our eyes at the very elderly man in the chair that we all knew as Dr Death Defying. There was a tape in the CD player and I clicked play.
“Killjoys, I’m sorry.” said Dr D on the tape. “I have had a terrible illness for a while now, and I’m sorry I never told you. I had to be strong for myself and for all of you; I know that it is time for me to go on with my life, to the next part of my life anyway.”
He had been quite ill lately, we just didn’t know, we thought it was just his old age. The tape continued;
“I hope that we can all meet in the afterlife with our masks finally off and everything back to normal in the world. Things may get tough but you all need to stay strong and keep your heads high, for me. I hope that one day you will all forgive me for not telling you guys about my illness, I just didn’t see how it could help things, I knew it definitely wouldn’t.”
I sniffled as more tears went down my face, we could have helped him. We would have done anything within our power to help Dr Death like he would have for any of us.
“I’m sorry for leaving you guys like this, but I know that I am going to die any time now. Please lead good and happy eyes, and die with your masks on if you have too.”
I looked over at his corpse and he was smiling with his goggles over his eyes, I smiled.
“I have had a long and happy life bringing you guys up as if you were my own and I know that you will carry on. Also, I’m sorry that I couldn’t live up to my name… Keep My Chemical Romance and the killjoys alive and never lose faith, alright? Dr Death Defying signing off….. For the final time.”
I let out a small sob as the guys looked at Dr D. He looked happy, maybe it was his time, but it wasn’t our time to lose him yet.
“We will stay strong, Dr Death, We promise.”
Gerard sobbed as he hugged Mikey into a tight hug, I tore them apart and dragged Frank over so we would have a group hug. We cried together quietly before we told the others. Dr Death Defying was our father figure and he loved all of us, We would remember him forever.
-A Few Days Later-
We carried him out into the desert, with the hole already dug for his final resting place. Gerard, Frank, Mikey and I carried out his casket, the girls sobbed as we lowered him into the hole. I felt empty, we all did, he helped all of us so much and we just couldn’t get over the fact that he was actually gone. Gerard stepped forward;
“We have written a song, just for Dr Death Defying. We hope that he would have liked it as much as we like it.”
We got ready with our instruments and Ella played the violin introduction to start us off. We gave each other one more encouraging look before I started to strum my guitar.
So long to all of my friends,
Everyone of them met tragic ends,
With every passing day,
I’d be lying if I didn’t say,
That I miss them all tonight…
And if they only knew what I would say,
If I could be with you tonight…
I would sing you to sleep,
Never let them take the light behind your eyes…
One day, I’ll lose this fight…
As we fade in the dark, just remember you will always burn as
Bright
Be strong, and hold my hand.
Time becomes for us, you’ll understand.
We’ll say goodbye today,
And we’re sorry how it all ends this way…
If you promise not to cry, then I will tell you just
What I would say
If I could be with you tonight,
I would sing you to sleep,
Never let them take the light behind your eyes.
I’ll fail and lose this fight,
Never fade in the dark
Just remember that you will always burn as bright.
The light behind your eyes….the light behind your-
Sometimes we must grow stronger and,
You can’t be stronger in the dark.
When I’m here, no longer, you must be stronger
And if I could be with you tonight,
I would sing you to sleep,
Never let them take the light behind your eyes.
I failed and lost this fight,
Never fade in the dark,
Just remember you will always burn as bright.
The light behind your eyes…the light behind your eyes…the light behind
Your eyes…the light behind your eyes…
The light behind your eyes…the light behind your eyes…the light behind
Your eyes…the light behind your….the light behind your eyes…
The light behind…
Everyone was crying and everyone would miss him.
Goodbye, Dr Death Defying. We love you, We miss you and We will carry on.
