The arena was a complete mad house.
Trart and Volnado still hadn’t made their way through the crowds to get back to
the rest of the group. The rest of the end of the world club had done some cool
stuff, but nothing that had made them the envy of the entire player base. Bob,
Blackout, and Stygian watched in awe as the arena cheered for their
achievement.
Sezario and The Matriarch flew
down to the arena floor from their box seats. Sezario walked up to Torcano. “Congratulations
on your victory.” He said holding out his hand to shake.
Torcano looks down at his feet. “I
don’t feel like a winner.” He admitted.
Zezario gave a knowing smile. “Why?
What ever could you mean?” He asked almost sarcastically.
The Matriarch hit him in the
shoulder. “Don’t be mean.” She scolded.
Torcano looked up cluing into the
oddness of the situation. “Wait, how did you get onto the arena floor?” He
asked.
Sezario shrugged. “I created the
game, I can pretty much go where ever I like.” He answered nonchalantly.
Bob and Blackout both dropped
their jaws. “SPIRITWALKER!!!” They shouted practically into his
face.
He nodded. “Durring working hours, speaking of working.” He turned his attention back to Torcano. “You want your job back kid?” He asked.
Torcano gave a bittersweet smile.
“I appreciate the offer, and I genuinely don’t want to be rude, but no, thank
you.” He replied.
Sezario nodded. “No worries, game
was meant to be played, you know?” He smiled. Everyone nodded at this.
Trart and Volnado join the group.
For a moment there is a dense, uncomfortable silence. No one in the group knows
where to begin. Frustrated, Trart finally steps forward and does and impersonation
of Volnado. “look bro, I’m sorry I was such a dick all those years.” Trart
steps next to Torcano and impersonates him. “I’m sorry too, I should have let
you know how much it bothered me a long time ago, and I’m sorry I turned into
such a douche.” Another step over and he takes on Bob’s stance and voice. “Awwwwe,
I apologize for snapping at you all the time Torcano and I apologise to the
group for constantly leaving this ‘love/hate’ thing we're doing, in the air
for so long.” Another step and he ends up next to Stygian and does his best impersonation
“I missed you guy’s soooo much! I don’t have anything to apologize for I just
wanted to be a part of the moment!” Finally he ends up next to Blackout. “Believe
it or not, I’m perfectly comfortable with who I am. None of this was my fault
and I’ll never let any of you forget it.” He then stepped back to his empty
space in the circle. “Whelp, now that that’s out of the way lets go run The Sea
of Ever Burning Fury, YAAAAAAAAAAAY!” He broke into a full run for the arena
gate. The rest of the group looked around the circle at each other. Volnado
shrugged and then broke off to follow Trart.
