Fan Fiction ❯ Harlequin's Goodbye ❯ A Painful Flashback ( Chapter 2 )
[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
(a/n: i'm sorry for taking so long to update, i've been having some home problems. I would like to thank Divine Discontent for
reviewing! I would also like to thank my bestest friend in the whole demonic world (even though she's not a demon), Blanket.
She has been the most supportive person that I know. And for this, I thank her. Well, from a review that I have just recently
received, not mentioning any names *glares at the person*, that Serge is OOC, which means out of character (hey, my friend
didn't know!). I would just like to tell you all that that is how it's supposed to be. My apologies for the typing format, it's the
only one that I have that fanfic.net will let me use. Well, on with the story!)
Serge began to think back to when Kid committed suicide. Her reason was the same as Harlequin's reason: Serge
didn't return her love either.
*Flashback Sequence*
"Oi, Serge, what're you waitin' for?" Kid asked Serge, who was leaning against a tree in the Fukai Mori Forest. He
was constantly looking at his watch every five seconds.
"Oh, umm, I was just waiting for Leena to arrive, she's an hour late." He replied, glancing at his Timex watch for at
least the millionth time that day. "We're supposed to have a picnic and then go to the movies to see the premiere of the Korean
manwha 'King of Hell'. It's supposed to be really good. Then, after that, we'll go to the mall to pick out some new manga,
manwha, and the new issue of Shonen Jump." He finished happily, looking at his watch yet again. "But we aren't going anywhere
until she comes. If she doesn't hurry up, by the time she comes here, the sun won't be out anymore and the mall will be closed. I
hope that she comes here soon."
"Oh, I see." Kid answered quietly. "But don't you want to hang out with me? It would be so much fun. We could kick
some serious arse at the arcade! It would be better than you going shopping with Leena and you winding up carrying all of her
stuff. At least with me, you'll have a good time." She added excitedly.
"Gomen, but I have plans with Leena. Maybe some other day?" He said, not really paying attention to her. Since he
wasn't paying attension, he didn't see the hurt expression that was on her face that was caused by his remarks.
"Oh. Yeah, sure." She managed to choke out. How could he be like this? He only loved Leena and could care less
about her? If he didn't care, then why didn't he save and protect her countless times? Why did he help and guide her
throughout her journeys? Was it all just a mask? A disguise? Was he just using her to reclaim his place in his world again? If
so, was that her only purpose in life? To help Serge become one with his world again and then watch him live a happy life with
Leena? If that was how it was supposed to be, then she no longer needed to live. Watching the one that you love, being in love
with another is one of the most heartbreaking things to watch, and she already had her heart broken, she didn't need it
anymore.
Serge stopped looking at his watch momentarily to look up at Kid. "Oh? You're still here, Kid? You might wanna leave
before Leena arrives. She sometimes gets jealous of any other girls, besides her, that talk to me." He stated simply, not even
realizing the effect that his words had taken on Kid.
"Oh, okay. I'll just leave then." She replied to his statement, turning away so that he couldn't see the tears in her
eyes. "Aishiteru, Serge. Goodbye." She confessed her love and said goodbye to Serge forever. All of her pain and suffering
would be over tonight with one, swift cut of her dagger.
The next day, the police came knocking on Serge's door. When Serge opened the door, he was surprised to see the
police standing there.
"Excuse me, sir. Is your name Serge Yokogiru?" (a/n: yokogiru=chross----my reason: cross like in 'chrono cross' ^.^)
"Yes, why? Is there a problem?" Serge asked nervously. What in the seven hells were the cops doing here? Did they
find out that he was the Chrono Trigger? Were they going to take him away?
"Would you happen to know a young woman by the name of Kid Shominno?" Serge nodded his response. "Well, sir,she
umm, committed suicide last night and she had left you her suicide note. She has a powerful binding spell on it so that only you
can read it'a contents." The police officer handed him the folded up piece of parchment paper. He could see a faint red aura
glow around it from the spell, but as soon as he touched it, the aura faded away. 'Kid's aura...' He thought as he took the paper.
"I'm very sorry for your loss, sir. Her body is left in your possession, so do what you wish in terms of funeral."
Serge nodded again, speechless. He opened the note just as the officers pulled out of his driveway and left. (a/n: Shominno=
vulgar-----my reason; a lot of people say that she is a 'vulgar girl' . ^.^).
The note read as follows:
Serge,
I can see that you do not love me. Your heart is for Leena and I respect that. But I can't just sit around for the rest
of my life watching you two living your happy life. I wish you the best of luck with your life and leave you with all of my
possessions. Please do whatever you like with my body for the funeral, but I would prefer to be cremated and have my ashes
thrown off of Cape Howl where we first met. Please take care of yourself. Itsumo aishiteru.
Farewell,
Kid Shominno
Serge finished the note and folded it back up, and then just broke down. His one companion that he had during his
battles and journeys and only friend that he could trust at that time was dead? How could this happen?
"What did I do to the Gods to deserve this?!' He screamed out at no one. "KIIIIIIID!!!!!!" He dropped to his knees
and cried right there for the rest of day.
Serge stood, three days later, on the edge of Cape Howl, with the urn containing Kid's ashes, in his hands.
"I'm sorry for how stupid and arrogant I was to you, Kid. I never realized how much that I really did love you." With
that said, he tossed the ashes over the cliff and watched them fly away. A lone tear slipped down his cheek as he turned to
return home.
*Flashback Ends*
It had been two years since Kid's death and he still wasn't over the fact that she was gone forever, never to return.
He had lost his only friend and now another was going to end her fate the same way? He couldn't let this go any further. He
had to stop her! If she died, then he would only have Leena left and she seemed to be showing signs of cheating on him. But
where could he find her? She was a master of black magic and could have concealed her ki energy. Now he remembered! Unlike
Harlequin, who was a master of black magic, Serge was a master of white magic!! He could cast a tracking spell to find her. He
began gathering the things that he would need to perform the ceremony.
(a/n: Hey, sorry that this chapter was so short, it was just supposed to explain Kid's death a little deeper. Please
review, I would really appreciate it!!! If there are spelling errors, please forgive me, I am using NotePad, so there is no Spell
Check icon. Please please please review and I will put up my other 6 chapters! On chapter 9 I'll need your help, so hurry up &
review so that I can keep updating!!! Later! ^.^ -Pure Evil Youkai
