Hello BE fans and judges! I don't really know what to put in the description of this brilliant one-shot except...enjoy! *bribes judges* (How? It's a secret.)

I'm guessing you're familiar with the Black Equation series if you are reading this right now. This is the epilogue of the last book- "The Gifted Ones," except in Atom's point of view. *WARNING* I highly recommend that you do not read this version of the epilogue if you haven't read the original one yet. You will most likely not understand this if you don't. There's also the point that this contains a lot of spoilers. When I read the original, I absolutely loved it. It may have been confusing to some because it was purposely told by a narrator that didn't understand the events that took place in order to give the readers room to inference on what the author meant between the lines. If you were unsure while reading the original, this may help because it's told in the point of view of Atom, who in my opinion, was the only one that truly understood what happened that day. Hope you enjoy.^-^
