"he got himself killed... He finally got himself killed..."
[b]john repeats to himself, he sits in his wooden cabin and dons the mask of his predecessors. He picks up the corpse and walks toward the pit in the center of the town. He throws the corpse in to the Hole and covers it in lighter fluid, finally setting it ablaze.[/b]
"See you on the day of the dead, brother..."
[b]he speaks to the Shepards over an intercom the next day[/b]
"as you have likely heard... Shepard aka, Lucas, has been killed by one of the few remaining fear mongers. I, being next of kin, and at his request, have been appointed as the new king of the Shepards..."
[b]he lays back on a torn and nearly ruined couch and turns on a TV, trying to take his mind off of what the hell had just gone down.[/b]

"Yup." Roger replies.
-
"Hehe.. Awesome.. Aight, who needs to be killed now, me?"
-
"No, Nightmare and Darkmind."
-
"What can they do now? Their kinda... Stuck"
-
"Well Darkmind is using a servant to gather the Shards of the crystal, if it is restored they can both return."
-
"Whatever, I'll just kill him at the cost of my own life, not a big deal." [b]he begins to sharpen Shepards sword [/b]
-
She smacks him.
-
[b]a red hand mark surfaces on his face[/b] "What? I'm not gonna lie to you Tara." [b]wheatley looks shocked [/b]
-
Tears are already welling up in her eyes. "You and Lucas are the most selfless people I have ever met. Just DONT TREAT LIFE LIKE A PASSING TREND!"
-
[b]his voice remains calm[/b] "It's gonna happen tara.. I've gotta be ready for it"
-
[b]he remains calm, as not to emotionally hurt Tara [/b] "I don't care about myself, you guys are FAR more important than us, so it's all good, I'll glady die killing good ol daydream, especially for you guys"
-
Suddenly she kisses him.
-
[b]he seems taken aback by this, and blushes deeply, Wheatley laughing in the background. He kisses her again[/b] "Why?"
-
"I just... Roger isn't real!" She blurts out.
-
"What? Tara are you okay?"
-
She falls to the ground in tears. "I m-made him with my magic to keep me company." He vanishes. "I was so happy when I met Mute, but...we never quite clicked. There was always doubt in me and I hated it. I tried to ignore it but..."
-
"Mute may be dead, Roger may be fake... But I'm still here, and I always will be." [b]he holds his hand out to help her up[/b]
-
"I'm... I'm sorry Tara. Mute may die, Roger may be a hallucination, but I'm still here.. And I always will be." [b]he holds his hand out, to help her up[/b]
-
"I'm the last of a species that is billions a d billions of years old." She grasps his hand. "I've always been so alone John."
-
"As have I, tara... As have I..." [b]he pulls her to her feet[/b]
-
"It is the duty of my people to keep the barrier between here and the Avatar plane protected." She sighs. "I don't think I can do it alone. But I don't want you to get hurt either."
-
[b]he smirks at "I don't want you to get hurt"[/b] "No Tara... I'll help as much as I can, but I can't tell you that if nightmare strikes at us again, I'm the one dying to protect you guys."
-
She sniffles before going into deep thought. After a few minutes she exclaims. That's it! We need to find one of the shards.!"
-
"The one that one dude wants?! Don't kill me for something minor, tara."
-
"That's just it, without all the pieces, it doesn't work. If we find one and then go back to the home of my people, we will all be safe."
