I must've fallen asleep, because Sora was gently shaking me to wake up. I got scared and I jumped. "Easy, Sonic," He said. I look at him. "We have arrived at our destination." He helps me up and out of the car. I turned around see a massive mansion that looked like it survived three nuclear wars. It was so old. "The inside is much better, trust me." He helps me towards the porch, up the stairs, and to the door. He opened it and all I could say was that he was right. Holy Mobius... I was in absolute awe when Sora called out someone. "Ryuzaki? Are you here?" Right then, a figure emerged from behind a couch. A human. He turned and my god he was creepy. He ought to be autistic... (Be sure you support the Autistics!!) He jumped off the couch and turned to face Sora and I. Definitely autistic. He has black hair, pale-ish skin, big black eyes, a white long sleeve shirt, navy blue jeans, but no shoes or socks. He went to me. That only made me more nervous than I already am. "Don't worry, Ryuzaki," Sora said to the guy. "He has no idea about Kira or anything. Plus, remember that Kira is dead now." The guy named Ryuzaki lowered his tension. "I know...I was just making sure he is a good guy." He walked to the nearest chair, stood on it, then squatted down. A very odd way of sitting...must be part of his Autisim... "He is...just...shy.." Ryuzaki then put his thumb on his lips. "You hesitated," he said. "It's true," I say. "I'm just shy and...nervous." He looks at me for a minute, then grunts. "Shyness may only mean you have something to hide..." he says. I look away towards Sora. "Then again, shyness is also a similar thing to nervousness. So it's either you are shy and hiding something, or just nervous." He's right... "A bit of both, actually," I say. "The reason why I'm shy is because of my identity. The reason why I'm nervous is because I've only been in the 'Underworld' for only four hours." I must've triggered something in him, because he is right in front of me again.
"If your identity resembles the name of Sonic then there is no need to hide," He said. "I...Yeah...but this is the thing...I am Sonic...but my appearance resembles Nominatus..." I confess. "How can this be?" He asked. "I killed him..." I admit. "Not to worry," a voice said. I turn to see Reo come out wearing a robe if some sort, and a similar one on his arm. "Here, we all kill out bad guys. You're not the only ones. And most likely, you have a moderate case of insanity." I nod. "I do..." Ryuzaki puts his hand on my shoulder. Reo came to me as well, handed me the spare robe, and spoke, "We are all insane, we all kill. It's normal here." Ryuzaki helped me to my 'new room', and helped me get my robe on. "What robe is this?" I asked out of curiosity. "It is a Kimono," He replied. "A Japanese robe." I say nothing as put it on. "Sonic, please sit down," he told me. He must've noticed that something was bothering me, so I did, and he 'sat' next to me. "I believe it is high time I tell you this," he said. I look at him. "I know you don't personally know them, but I will tell you this. Jeff here has killed his own family from insanity. LJ killed his first victim after he abandoned and betrayed him. We all have a story to tell, the reason why our insanity exists." He's, once again, right... I look away but he gestures me to look at him again. I do so with threatening tears. He hugs me and I hug back, wanting to cry out of sympathy and fear. "Let it out, Sonic. Let it go," he said. I hesitated, but eventually cried. Loudly. "I miss them...I miss my friends!...I-I wanna go home!!..." I slurred as I cried into Ryuzaki's chest. I heard someone come in. "The new one, I guess?" A raspy voice spoke. "Yes," Ryuzaki responded. "He is still adjusting and he is still scared of everything at the moment." The other figure shuffled over to the bed and began to rub my back. I turn to see the guy. Another human, but this one looks inhuman. Pale, no eyelids, an unusually wide smile, and jet black hair. "W-Who...?" The stopped rubbing my back for a minute to answer. "I'm Jeff." The same guy that killed his family?...Must be... "Did he wake LJ up?" Ryuzaki asked. "He's been up so no," Jeff replied. "Where is he then?"
"He's either at his carnival or out killing." Jeff continued stroking my back to soothe my distress. I lean in and sigh. "I guess I'll be here for a while, huh?" I quiver. "Yeah, But not forever," Jeff replied. Well crap...Thirty minutes later, L left and soon came back with a tray that had a bowl, chopsticks, fork, a glass of something and a napkin, and placed it on my lap. I was next to Jeff, who was dozed. L put down a sleep mask and adjusted his hair. "First things first," he muttered. He gave me the cup and helped me drink it. After a couple sips, I ask, "What is this?" He put it down. "Sencha tea," he replied. "It'll help you heal." I continue sipping with his help. Soon I was done and started eating the soup. At least the soup is something familiar... After fifteen minutes, I was done. "Get some rest," L spoke. "It's time for bed." I nod and lean into Jeff's shoulder. L put the covers over me and left as he turns off the light. I sigh and close my eyes.
