Chapter 6

 

            He had waited this day with dread for months, and now, it was finally upon them. Somehow, today, his Father would diec

            Red shivered. He hoped it would be a quick deathc

            Lance was immune to the effects of depression that were hanging over Red though, so he cheerfully suggested that they head to Vermillion beach.

            Why not? It was hot summer againc

            And if this was his last day here, he might as well enjoy itc

 

            They bought lemonade from a boy running a stand, and despite the fact that it was overly sugared, enjoyed it. The sun was bright and there were no clouds. It was a picture perfect day.

            Red tried to enjoy it, but his stomach had twisted itself into knots and he was feeling twitchy.

            He had to watch the one he loved die, and there would be no way to prevent it!

 

            It happened out of the blue. There was no way to explain it. Somehow, that blast of lightning had arced out of the sky, aiming right for him, and Lance had pushed him out of the way was gotten hit instead.

            It was so clichéd, but it still tore at his heart.

            It wasnft fairc

            So that was why his Father did not live in the futurec

 

            Still, as he felt the strange shimmery feeling of time regaining normal strength moving through his body, he had to admit that he did not regret this choice.

            It was better to have lived and loved, even if only for a sort time, than to have never loved at all.

            One thing still nagged at his mind though, but it was rapidly slipping awayc

            Well, it mattered little. He had other things to worry about now. There were battles to fight, and paperwork to do. His vacation was over.

 

            Did you see what you wanted? Serebii asked upon his return.

            gYes.h Red sighed. gYou are free now.h

            Serebii vanished in a series of green sparkles, glad that Red had not questioned her about paradoxes. She had no desire to explain, not in this life.

            It was over.

 

            It hurt, yes, Red decided, but this was a love society would not have tolerated in any case. There was nothing to be done for it, and he would not be making any more trips into the past.

            He had enjoyed those months – that was no lie, and he was sure that Father – Lance – had loved him too, really loved him.

            He would be content with that.

            Maybe, hefd find someone in his own time, but that could come later.
