Description
This was all too shocking for me. I really thought that wishing I was never born would help everyone. I thought Yusei would still have his successful dueling career. Mikage would have been a lot happier and in general everything would be better. But at that point I had seen a beaten down, out of work Carly and a bitter, bruised Mikage. This was just so unbelievable, I was bordering on demanding everything be changed back. But I needed to know what happened to everyone else, surely something good came out of the wish or even in the future for them they would have better lives?
Well it didn't seem like that so far as our next stop was the facility, New Domino's maximum security prison. Scooby teleported me there, utilizing another one of her powers. When she teleported me into the middle of the it, I just stood in shock when I realized where we were. I phased through the walls, looking around the giant fortress. I knew Yusei said the place was enormous when he was there...but I just didn't know it was like this. The place was practically a huge towers with cell doors lining the walls, bridges on all the floors of this place, it really gave an isolated, somewhat trapped feeling. I turned to Scooby who was by my foot and looked at her baffled.
"Wait...all of my friends are in prison?" I asked her confused. The cat shook her head.
"No, just a few of them. In fact here comes one now!" Scooby exclaimed. I looked around and I immediately saw someone on a stretcher being pushed by some medics.
"Get this man to a hospital right away!" One of the medics shouted.
"The end of the female section of the prison is straight ahead, it leads directly to the parking where the ambulance it! Come on!" The other medic called out yelled as they ran the stretcher directly through me.
When they phased through me, I looked down to see who they were carrying. On the stretcher laid a man with very light blue hair and a stoic expression similar to Yusei. Kiryu...
When the medics passed through me I just kept staring at the stretcher in disbelief, Kiryu did say he almost died in prison, but was it really because of me? I thought that can't be and looked back at the cat with critical eyes.
"Scooby, explain that. How the hell did I cause the death of Kiryu?"
"Easy, without you, Godwin's plan never went into motion meaning he never had a use for someone like Kiryu." I continued to watch the medics try to get the man the attention he needs. I was actually really worried for his life right there, I wanted to do more...but I was basically a ghost and couldn't do anything...like with Mikage.
"Also your next friend is in the cell behind us." I turned around and indeed there was a cell straight ahead. I was actually very fearful about looking inside and seeing who it was and what condition that person could be in. I was already horrified by the dying body of Kiryu so I took my time when walking towards the cell. Scooby followed behind, walking as slowly as I did. Looking around the prison and judging by what the medic said, I was in the female section of the prison. Some of the inmates were out and while I knew they couldn't seem me, I still felt intimidated by the stares they were giving across the room to other inmates. I understand now how Yusei must have felt when he was sent here.
When I reached the cell door, I took a deep breath and slowly walked through the door with Scooby following. I looked inside the cell and saw a body on the bed, resting it seemed. I couldn't see much as the person was lying down and I was watching her from behind so I couldn't see much. I walked further into the cell to see who it was and when I turned my head to see who it was, the answer to who it was shocked me.
This prisoner was wearing the standard orange jumpsuit which I remember were recently implemented in the Facility and wore a silver hairpiece in the front of her hair. Her hair speaking of which, was a rose like color and was fairly short. Her eyes were very cat like and looked very fierce. There was no mistaking it, it was Aki Izayoi.
Scooby pounced onto the bed, walking around on it. I just looked at Aki shocked and confused. Aki would never commit a crime, I may not have gotten along with her often but I remember she was sweet and very brave. Of course she may have started out vicious but that all changed, what happened?
"How the hell did she end up here?" I asked in disbelief. Aki just turned on her bed no doubt trying to get comfortable on the probably cold and uncomfortable prison bed. She got in a position where she was curled up and her back was facing me. Poor girl, what happened that got her in a place like this?
"Well you know how Aki was the "Black Rose Witch" and she worked for Divine?" I nodded my head. The cat stretched out on the bed, probably tired from showing me all of this.
"Well thanks to you never existing, she and Divine both got caught. And due to special devices attached to them, their ability to use their powers has been negated." The cat explained. I started to look at Scooby less shocked then when I had looked at Aki and more annoyed though I still was confused.
"Wouldn't that be more of Yusei's purpose? Where do I fit in?" I asked rather rudely and Scooby just rolled her eyes.
"Well think about it! Yusei came to New Domino to get back his card and defeat you didn't he? Without you, he had no reason to sneak into the city and thus, never met Aki!" The cat explained rather bitterly to me. It made more sense though I still kept my critical expression.
"But wouldn't Yusei surely...." I begun to ask but then the shocked expression returned as my eyes grew wide. Scooby just looked at me confused which I don't blame her for.
"Scooby...what happened to Yusei?" The cat looked at me with a noticeably worried expression. She sighed and looked up at me rather sad looking eyes.
"Do you really want to know Jack?" I nodded my head. "Jack...I don't know if you should really see it...I...look I really don't want to show you it." she replied nervously. I looked at Scooby with bitter eyes.
"I need to know Scooby, so just take me there and I don't care about how horrible it's going to be." The cat sighed and looked at me with those worried eyes and sighed.
"...you will." The cat's eyes begun to glow again meaning she was no doubt using the same magic that teleported us to the Facility. The bright flash of light covered us and blinded me for a bit. I needed to know what happened to my long time friend.
When the flash of light disappeared, I opened my eyes to see I was at the entrance of the Satellite where the connection between the Daedalus Bridge and the main road of the Satellite should be...should being the keyword. The bridge was nowhere in sight, It's not even that I was in the right place, it should be right here, it would be hard to spot a bridge that went on for miles in my opinion.
I looked around the city and saw that city looked the same as when I was a kid. Junk in the streets, buildings wearing out and trash everywhere. It was shocking how much things had gone back to the way they were originally. Also the street was flooded with snow unlike in New Domino were the streets were plowed. There was not a soul on the street making the whole place seem like a ghost town. I looked down towards Scooby.
"So where is Yusei?" I asked her. She looked miserably at the ground and started walking forward. I slowly followed her while I looked around at the practically abandoned city. I knew people were inside but with all the scrap lying around on the street, I felt like I was the only survivor of some sort of apocalypse. I couldn't feel the cold temperature considering my ghost like state, but the world around made me feel...so cold. The walk was not any better as Scooby was completely silent and when I asked questions about Yusei, she just remained silent.
Eventually after walking for so long we came to what appeared to be a graveyard. It was the most clean part of the city so far but it could not add a more grim atmosphere than the atmosphere that was formed when we were walking through the city. Scooby ran quickly inside with me attempting to catch up to her. Why would she be this frantic inside of a graveyard, what was inside. My eyes then widened, putting the pieces together.
Scooby stopped at one of the grave stones and I stopped there immediately as well. On the grave laid flowers for whoever it belong to. I got on my knees to better read the stone. It read:
Here lies Crow Hogan, friend, joker, courageous boy. Then it showed the date of his death and I noticed he was only ten years old when he died!
My hands were shaking as I stood there looking upon his grave. I reached out for it to see if it was real or not, but my hand just phased through it. I was close to shedding a tear, the others were in awful shape but none of them were dead, let alone died at an age so young! Scooby walked over near me and sighed looking at the grave.
"How...Not even how does it link to me...Just how..." I said, a whine showing within my voice as I restrained myself.
"When you two were kids, you saved his life from an accident where you saved him from scrap collapsing on him. You managed to get both you and Crow out of there. But without you..." I held my hand up, signaling her to stop.
"It's ok...I know how now...but I...if this is Crow than where is..?" I suddenly heard footsteps coming into the cemetery. I turned around, thinking it was someone who possibly ran the cemetery or something like that. However, in front of me stood the person I was least ready for. When I saw who he was and the condition he was, I was quite frankly, horrified. Yusei Fudo.
Just the look of him alone is a complete contradiction to how I usually saw Yusei or how other people knew him. His face instead of the strong, stoic expression he tended to wear he instead of a face that looked like he was going to burst into tears any second. His face was dirty and scarred and even his hair was very distorted unlike the clean cut style I usually saw him with. His jacket looked ripped and torn as if a wild animal had attacked him. But the worst was how his muscles and stomach looked. He looked near emaciated with his skinnier than usually arms and what appeared to be his rib cage poking into his skin even through his shirt. When I thought about what Yusei could possibly be like in this alternate universe, this was the last thing I expected to see...and wanted to see.
When I saw him I stepped back a bit and covered my mouth. Before it was for gasping but in this case, I legitimately felt sick looking at his body. He walked weakly over to Crow's grave almost as if he were about to collapse on the ground. I turned to Scooby still keeping the shock while Scooby just looked at Yusei depressed.
"How...how on earth did Yusei end up like...that?" Scooby sighed and looked at me with saddened eyes, a complete contrast to the cat who was normally snarky or bitter.
"With Kiryu disappearing and ending up in prison and Crow dying, Yusei has pretty much lost hope really. You, Kiryu and Crow gave him motivation, helped turn him into the guy you knew. However without anyone he has pretty much...given up. He tries to deny it but he caused the hunger you see on himself. He doesn't care anymore." I looked back at my friend and kept the horror but some Scooby's depression spread to me as a sadness mixed with the horror. Yusei stood in front of the grave of Crow looking like he was about to cry.
"Hey Crow...It's Yusei..." He said with a voice signifying he was suffering some sort of illness. He started to dig through his coat pocket and bring out what appeared to be some bread. I prayed he was going to eat it but he just laid it on the grave.
"Here you go man...I know how much you loved sneaking bread from Martha so here is hopefully something nostalgic...." Yusei said, trying to chuckle to seem happier than he actually was. I turned around, I didn't want to look at him in this kind of state. It was too much for me.
Behind me, I just kept hearing him struggle to chuckle. I could hear him sniffle though, meaning he was starting to cry. I never thought Yusei was one to cry but in this kind of world, nothing is familiar to me. He just kept trying to sound happy but the more he tried, the more depressed I became. I wish I could take that bread and force feed it to him, just so that he eats something! But I couldn't.
After a while he stopped trying to force a laugh and he became silent. Too silent, no sniffle, no crying, no laughing, just silence. Even worse, I heard a thud on the ground. When I turned around to see what happened,
Yusei had collapsed on the ground.
"YUSEI!" I yelled running over to him with Scooby following. He had fallen on his side and I turned to the side where his stomach and face where facing me. I looked closely at him and saw something that made me feel like the whole world became silent and everything turned dark.
He was not breathing.
I started panting I got on my knees and inspected him, but could find no reason why he became this state. Scooby was standing near me and I turned to her.
"What's happening?!?" I asked her.
"I'm not sure...I don't know how he died..." I grew very angry and looked at the cat as if I were going to kill her.
"He's not dead! We can save him! You have magic right? DO SOMETHING!" Scooby looked at me very bitterly and stared me into the eyes.
"I CAN'T! My magic does not allow me to tamper with things in this world!" I looked at her with all the anger being replaced by fright and stood up. Scooby looked at me with those still bitter eyes.
"Go away..." Scooby looked at me confused while still bitter.
"What?" The anger returned as I looked at her angrily with full force.
"GO THE FUCK AWAY! IF YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING THEN GO BE SOMEONE ELSE'S GUARDIAN ANGEL! BECAUSE REMEMBER??? I DON'T FRIGGIN EXIST, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE MINE ANYMORE!" I screamed at her.
Scooby looked at me with those cold eyes and not even a single word, her eyes glowed, the flash of light and she disappeared. I didn't focus on her though as I turned back to my friend. I got on my knees and tried to pick him up to carry him to a doctor, but my hands phased through.
"No, No, No! Yusei please get up, you're fine...we can feed you, get you back to health." I tried, denying his death. Yusei made no response. I looked at him with fire raging inside my eyes.
"GET UP! You're fine! We can save you just need to get up!" I yelled at him, he made no response, I forgot he could not hear me, I was just desperate for him to hear me. As my face full of rage continued though, something began falling down my cheeks...something I never thought I could have.
Tears.
Tears began streaming down my face and I even started sniffling a bit. I knelt on the ground, the tears raining down on to the ground.
"Just please...Get up Yusei..." I tried to say but the whining from me crying muted me. Nothing was happening. No one was coming. I just sat there crying.
"Why?...WHY? WHY? WHY? Why did I ever make that stupid wish?!?! " I yelled out as loudly as I could, not even the whining of my voice could mute it.
"I want to live! I want to be with Yusei, Mikage, Aki, Crow, Carly EVERYONE! JUST PLEASE!" I yelled to the top of my lungs, hoping I'd get some response. Nothing, the world was completely silent save for my painful cries.
"Just please...someone out there..." I whined quietly to myself as I shed tears that seemed endless. I couldn't do anything, I felt useless and I was going to be wandering forever as a ghost seeing all my friends die as I watched. I would be living forever...but I'd be trapped with a prison that was this form.
My tears flooded my eyes, to the point I could not see anything. I looked up for anyone that could help Yusei but instead I saw something in the distance that was coming closer.
A white light.
Thank you Scooby82101 for helping to check this over. I tried to make the last part dark and dramatic and possibly bring out some tears. I'm going to upload ch 4 as soon as possible, hopefully tonight.
