I woke up in the middle of the night, breathing heavily. I had another nightmare, the same one I've been having since they died. "It's your fault!" Poison screaming voice rang through my head. My nightmare playing through my head. Poison standing in front of me looking angry. "It's your fault that we're dead. We died because of you!" He screamed at me. "If you just paid more attention you wouldn't have been taken and then we didn't have to come after you! We could have lived! If it wasn't for you being so reckless we would still herex" Blood started to run down his face and a wound appeared in his head. "We would still be alive." He said quietly before dropping to the ground, lifeless.

I sat up in my bed, pushing me legs up against my chest holding it closely to me and crying into my knees. Guilt consuming me. It was all my fault. If I had focused more on my surroundings, I wouldn't have been caught and they would still be alive. My thoughts were interrupted when Missile Kid walked in and sat on my bed, looking at me with sad eyes. I took her into my arms and hugged her tightly and she hugged me back crying into my shoulder. Dr. D thought it wasn't good for me to be alone so Missile Kid was staying with me.

"We should get some sleep we have a big day tomorrow." I said after a stopped crying. She nodded in agreement. "Can I sleep here with you tonight?" She asked. "Of course you can." I said smiling softly at her. I shifted to one side of the bed to make room for her. She moved next to me and I pulled the covers over us holding her close to me. Her breathing slowed and I knew she fell asleep, I was just staring at the ceiling.

We were going to Battery City tomorrow, to BL/ind headquarters. We were going to save the world. We were going to free the people. All the Killjoys were going to fight against Better Living Industries. They would fight against the dracs and the S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W units and Missile Kid and I will go after Korse with a few other Killjoys. Tomorrow was the day we would go to war. I was worried. Not for myself but for Missile Kid. I felt myself start to drift and my eyes feeling heavier as I finally surrendered to sleep.

We were in BL/ind headquarters. We fought like hell to get here. There were so many of them. It was the place where all the dracs came from after all. Luckily dracs weren't the smartest or most skilled so we managed to fight through them easily enough. The killjoys that came with me were fighting the dracs while I made my way to Korse. He was mine to finish. Missile Kid was needed somewhere else in the building. I navigated the hallways, determined to find Korse and end him. He was going to pay for taking my family from me.

I finally reached the door I knew he was behind. This door was the only thing standing between me and Korse, the only thing keeping him alive but not for long. I knew the door was locked so I used all the force I could muster and rammed myself against the door. It took a few tries but I knocked it open. I was met with Korse. He had a sickening grin plastered on his face. "I had a feeling that you would show up." He said, his grin never leaving his face. I looked at him with so much hatred burning in my eyes. "Now that you're here, what are you planning to do?" He asked as he stretched his arms out besides him, gesturing to the room we were in. "What do you think?" I growled out. "You're here to kill me." He laughed and moved closer to me before continuing. "You want to avenge your little friends because I killed them." He said with a huge smirk that made my blood boil. How dare he find this funny.

"You're a sick monster." I spat. "Now you're going to pay." I was seething at this point. He won't be laughing when I put a bullet in his skull. In a swift movement I pulled my ray gun out and pointed it at his head. I was standing right in front of him now, my gun pressed under his chin, just like what he did when he pointed his gun at Poison. He just kept smirking at me. It only pissed me off more. "What are smiling about?" I asked with venom dripping from my words. "I have a little surprised for you." He said looking rather pleased with himself, knowing something I didn't.

I looked at him in confusion when he called out. I couldn't believe what I saw next. There, in front of me, stood all four killjoys. My family, who I thought died.
