SWEET HOME OHIO

(INTERLUDE #4) CHAPTER 52- FINAL SHOWDOWN

No way...

This shouldn't be true...

But when I entered her house...

HAZEL- No...

I was late...

HAZEL- Crystal!!!!!!!!!!

I rushed towards her and fell on my knees...

HAZEL- Crystal... wake up... You can't go like this... What you did to yourself... C'mon... wake up...

I was late to realise the blood leaking off his back... She... No way she tried to kill herself...

I was unable to stop my tears from what I saw...

RONIN- Hazel!!

ENZO- Oh shi-

ASAHI- God...

MARCO- No way...

XENA- Crystal?!?

YENA- Omg...

EMILY- Damn...

KEN- Oh no...

NAIRA- (O_O)

HAZEL- (sobs) Wake up..... Please... You have promised me that we will not give up...

RONIN- How...

ENZO- Guys, I found this...

XENA- A note?

ASAHI- It must be a letter...

RONIN- Open it...

ENZO- Yea... Look...

(everyone reading the letter)

RONIN- Hello friends, if you are reading this, you might be angry at me right now, especially you Ronin, since I broke your promise again...

MARCO- I know this is quite unpredictable for everyone, but I took this step since I was against it. But I couldn't stand it anymore...

ENZO- I was constantly degrading myself and continued feeling guilty for ruining someone's life...

ASAHI- The reality turned so toxic that I was unable to face it...

XENA- I started losing myself when I saw my closest friend Ronin turn cold over me, I was feeling like I ruined his life...

YENA- That even hurt me more when I started getting those old memories back when we used to be more happy together...

EMILY- Day by day, I kept losing focus on everything, stopped eating and lost interaction...

KEN- I know I did a crime by killing myself, but this will give me a chance to restore my mistakes and I could start a better life in my next rebirth...

NAIRA- This was our journey, and I hope you all will do great in your life. Thank you for being supportive till now. Yours truly, Crystal...

HAZEL- (sobs) I shouldn't have trusted you... I never expected you could do this to me... I stopped harming myself because you told me to... And now... What am I looking at...? Huh???? Why?? Why did you do this to me??

RONIN- Hazel...

ENZO- I am feeling bad for him...

ASAHI- (felt something) Uh... 

KEN- What happened?

ASAHI- I feel something odd from him...

MARCO- Huh?
