Time Of Dying (MCR Black Parade)

3 I'm Back Bitches

11:34 POV

After I ran from the Great Beyond, and encountered a guard, I stayed close by. I watched as the band arrived on the seen. Those fools have no idea what's going on. After I was satisfied with my bit of entertainment, I left my hiding spot and walked in the direction of the band's home.

I had been here a few times in the past. I knew how to get in. There is a brick wall in the back that can be easily climbed. From there there is a sky light above s large room. The sky light can't lock, so getting in would be easy. From then I would confront them.

I landed on the floor of a large, dark, room. I could here in the distance, the front door of the house open and close. I head then coming to this room, so I slipped into the corner and used the shadows to hide.

And in walked, the band, Mother War,. Fear, and Regret.

"But what could have caused it?" Mother War asked. "And did something," Fear started "Or someone, get out." Regret finished.

"Well we can't say. This has never once happened here." Gerard responded.

Seeming to become quite annoyed, Mother War grabbed Gerard by the front of his black jacket. "Well figure it out! The five of you are the oldest souls here, if something like this has never happened before, then we are as good as doomed!" While Mother War was yelling at Gerard, Mikey put a hand on her shoulder to stop her.

"We are not doomed. What ever happened, we will figure it out, and this problem will be resolved. We have a week until the next soul arrives, so we have more than enough time to fix this." He said calmly as Mother War let go. "You better uphold that statement Michael. Because if something happens to the parade, the souls of the damned will instead meet the Devil."

With that Mother War, Fear, and Regret left.

"Damn. We're fucked." Frank said to break the silence. "Hey we don't know that." Ray tried to reason.

"Well we aren't exactly having a jolly good time right now are we?" He retorted. "Dude I'm just trying to this positive here. I'm sure in a week everything will be back to normal and this will be all behind us." Ray stated.

"You're both idiots." Mikey said as they continued to talk back and forth.

Oh this was just so funny to watch from the shadows. I had to hold in my laughter watching them bicker. They have no idea what's really going on.

All while Mikey, Frank, and Ray were talking back and forth, Gerard had his hand on his chin, thinking. I know this because he had his thinking face on. He wore it a lot back when we were friends. He thinks so much, yet tends to have the brain power of a young child. He isn't exactly book smart, yet always knows the right things to say to make you feel as though all your problems just vanished. However he clearly doesn't realize the cause of this problem of his is standing only a few yards away from him.

"Guys," Gerard silenced the others "This may not be as big a problem as we think, but it could also be much worse, let's go to be and talk about this after we've slept on it."

The others simply nodded and walked through the large door to go back to their rooms. Gerard stayed however, standing in the same spot on the floor. Unmoving.

While he stood there and idea came to my mind. My abilities have grown so much in the past two hundred years, with them it might make this go s bit easier.

Gerard POV

What to do, what to do. In three thousand years this had never happened. So why now? What caused it? Who is doing this? How do I stop it? How do-

My thoughts we abruptly stopped by me feeling a painful pressure on my throat. I reach for my neck but nothing was around it, so what was causing this pain? I didn't have time to think as that pressure quickly escalated to full on asphyxiation. I couldn't breath at all and pain radiated up and down my spine and in my lungs.

It only got worse when I was lifted from the ground by whatever was choking me. I clawed at my neck but it did nothing. And my limbs started to go numb as spots began to block my vision. My mind began to shut down, and I eventually stopped struggling and let everything go dark.

11:34

I cackled as I made my way over to a now knocked out Gerard. "Oh yes yes yes!"  However I was interrupted by a small noise.

"Ouch." I heard come from someone I thought I knocked out. "You know of you're gonna knock someone out,you should probably have a better plan." Gerard mumbled as he slowly stood up.

Oh shit

"You see I can't be hurt, any and all damage I take disappears in seconds." He informed as he finished standing up. However since he was facing the other direction, he didn't see that it was me.

It took him a few seconds but when he finally turned around his eyes widened I'm horror.

"You." He gasped.

"Me!" I cheered. "Haha! Did you miss me Gee!? I sure did miss you!" I laughed proudly as he just stood there in shock.

"How?! You can't be here!" He finally said. Yelled more like. I could faintly here that someone was starting to run twords the room.

"Surprise. It truly had been so long. Shall we catch up?" I asked right as someone opened the door. But before they could get more than two steps in I quickly snapped my fingers. And everything around us froze, leaving me and Gerard in a single moment in time.

He quickly looked around to see that the guards that had just opened the door has froze in time. "How did you do that?" He asked looking back at me.

I couldn't help but let out a small laugh. "Well, after spending over two and a half centuries in a pit of nothingness, you pick up a few things." I said happily.

Soon his shocked expression turned slightly sad. "What happened to you?" He said gesturing to my now more disheveled appearance. My dress was now more torn and tattered since the last time he saw me. With parts of the skirt falling off at the seems and one of my sleeves almost completely gone.

"Oh you know, shit happens. The Great Beyond hasn't been to kind to my old attire." I said holding up the sides of my torn skirt.

"No," he said as I dropped my skirt. "Your eye." He pointed at my face in concern.

We don't have any kind of mirrors in the Great Beyond, so I haven't seen my face in a long time.

Confused I looked down at the floor, which was made out of a reflective tile. I looked to see that the white my right eye had turned an almost black color, and what was once an dark blue was now white.

"Oh! Yeah I guess that is slightly concerning. Oh well." I said, not caring much about it. "I'm dead, what the worst that could happen?"
