LU 257 - Nekane 2

War. War never changes.

First, a war over my mental health, my brother trying to take over Spawn and now this. I can never get a decent break in my life. I wake up on the battle field to find Space and Vice discussing with the head honchos of the rebelion, Ore, Kearly and Vert, discussing about the war.

How foolish of me now to get involved.

I stand up. I try to cool things down somewhat, have the 2 sides have a civil discussion, but I guess not because they have a "Gentleman's Duel" to decide it, and what do you know the losers of the war lose again. Vice tries to get a contract going, they don't like it. Space and Vice walk away, and the rebels start conversation with me. I don't actually care who takes over Spawn, or who keeps it. The empire never bothered me anyways, didn't meddle with my business. I only helped because I felt bad for Luca trying to blow the whole town up. But either way I decide to listen. Maybe it benefits me, a bunch of talking yata yata its a blur to me now. I offer to be the public figure as mayor while they pull the strings from the back, they ask why they should agree. It doesn't matter now, I didn't really care. Space walks over and says that they will peacefully leave, and that the rebels get control over the Spawn.

They don't agree, and threaten him.

At this point Space and Vice have nothing on the table. Vice tries to write the contract again, differently. Space decides to come back and just talk... and then he drops it.

Vice? This whole time? An ex kidnapper? You mean to tell me I was supplying an EX KIDNAPPERS FUCKING EMPIRE? madness. It's fine, it's fine, calm yourself Nekane. You have seen worse, and maybe they moved on from their ways, and apparently they kidnapped their now son? Weird.

Anyways, Vice comes back and says here's the contract, and still no ones signs it. Space just thinks he and Vice should leave. Finally we all agree, but before he goes he shows us something. A giant red mass, peculiar, and it was so close to my soon to be bank and lab I dont know how I missed it,. Mouths all over, demands a sacrifice to get the... the person inside out?

Who's inside?

Chizzy.

This whole time? The whole god damn time? Chizzy, the person who made me feel good about my life. Who made me realize there was maybe more to life then pain and sorrow, gone for weeks, in a fucking mass, and Space put them down there?

Why...

WHY!!!

How many timese will this happen in my life time.

How many times will I learn something that pushes me deeper and deeper into the void.

HOW MANY FUCKING TIMES WILL THE GODS PUNCH ME DOWN AND BEAT ME, ME INTO SUBMISSION BEFORE THEY FINALLY GET ME TO GIVE UP, AND DROP TO MY KNEES AND BEG!?

Space could have just said this to someone, maybe someone would have helped him BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! He has to keep his pride to himself and not have all of Spawn shit on him for his mistakes, own up to it man. Just say you fucked up and try and fix it, instead of lying about it.

I'm happy he's gone now. Maybe the rebels were right, this whole empire and town was built on lies.

I try to strike up the deal again. Maybe me being mayor might fix this town.

Me, Vert and Kearly go into the police station, and we discuss.

The rebels will be the Government and the Governor, I will be the mayor. They said that me being mayor is a good idea since I know the town, I agree really.

We all leave, and I get to work.
