Illusion - A DextremeAU's Story

Chapter 1: 2023

It has been 4 years since the erasure. B-17 bomber had won, every living entity in the universe was erased from existence. Except for one person. A cobalt haired, bandana wearing, sword wielding robloxian. Xed. He was wearing a black leather jacket, dark green pants with 2 lines, one was red and the other was blue. He had a scar on his face after a previous fight. He is 20 years old as of now. Yet he still remembers that day as if it just happened. Xed tried as hard as he could to beat the robotic nightmare but failed and watched the people he knew and loved slowly vanish right in his arms. He lost all his emotional sanity that day and was no longer the hero he used to be. He was now just a wandering survivor, trying to live for another day. The robloxian was walking through a city, finding items for his benefit. Such as first aid, nonperishable foods, and water. He looked at a locket, showing his friends and allies. James, Storm, Yeh, Gadget, all of them were gone. He closed the locket as he let out a sad sigh. The robloxian made his way back into what was left of his home. Battered down and seemingly abandoned. As he sat down on his couch to rest, something happened. He found himself in a burning hellscape, multiple bodies were all around him. Some were his best friends like James and Zeraora. Xed looked terrified. He tried walking away but bumped into a charred carcass, it was his. Xed felt like he was unable to breathe. But then, he saw a figure walking through the fire. B-17. "The despair you're feeling is delicious for me. But it's not enough." He spoke. Xed had no idea what he was talking about. Suddenly, he felt something grab his shoulder, something cold. He looked back and saw something that made his eyes widen in pure dread. It was Gadget, but he was crying "Why?" Gadget said with a sad tone. Xed shed a tear as his heart shattered. "I-I tried my hardest, but." Before he could say anything else, B-17 appeared behind the red wolf and grabbed him by the head and forced him to look up. Suddenly, Gadget went through a sudden shift in his appearance. Now his irises and pupils disappeared, his fur was a more desaturated color of red, and his crystal blue tears became a deep blood red. "NO!" Xed yelled as he reached out... to the roof of his house. The robloxian quickly realized it none of it happened, it was just a dream. Yet, he could not stop crying. He looked back at the golden locket around his neck, his arm shaking. "What can I do now... I have nothing and no one. There must be something I can do... right?" Xed quickly realized he was losing his mind and plunged his head downward in sorrow. He knows there is no logical way that he can bring everybody he let down back. But suddenly he heard a piece of paper slide through his door. He knew exactly who sent it, yet still opened it. "Watching your useless crying is getting dull. If you really want another chance to save everybody once more, Meet me at the Archipelago 13 miles away from here." From, the only other sentient being here. Xed stared at the paper for a full minute. "I know he's playing me..." He stated. He lowered his arm holding the paper. "But he's right." He sighed. "Fuck it." Xed thought to himself as he got his katana and his bandana. As he was putting on his leather jacket once more, he saw his old fedora. He had a determined look and grabbed the fedora, putting it on his head. Xed opened the door and was ready to face the one who took everything away from him one final time.
