Flat-Brim Samurai Chapter 57
A car pulled up to where the boys were staying VMMMMMM CLICK BEEP. A text sounded from Apollo's phone 'I'm here' and a smile crossed his face ,"Time to go home boys," ,"""YEAH!!!"" They ran out of the building, Apollo moving faster than the rest. Apollo ran up to his mom and gave her a very tender and loving hug ,"I missed you mom," ,"I missed you too, I'm so happy you're safe." ,"So are we going home or are we just going to hug all day long?" Noah said ,"Alright, we can leave now," Apollo replied, grinning with all of his teeth, ear to ear.
Car to airport to airplane, each movement they took to go home felt comforting. By the time they got to the airport it was already mid day. They got on the flight and felt the coldness of the soft cushions they got to sit on. They all breathed sighs of relief after relaxing all their muscles. All 4 immediately fell asleep. Ella looked over and saw her son and his friends passed out, she was comforted seeing this kinship.
,"Alright guys, time to wake up," Ella said to the four drowsy kids. Eyes glazed over, they all got up and just started moving where she said to go. They moved outside of the airport and looked out at the night sky, it was a calming feeling moving home whilst everyone was asleep. It was as if life was only moving for them at this moment and it felt great. They got in Ella's car and drove off to move back home. Cias was asleep, Devan turned on his music, Noah got out his grip trainer and Apollo was just looking outside at the blurred lights of the highway.
Ella dropped off Noah, Devan, and then Cias before it was time for her and her son to go home. She looked at the mirror and glanced once more at her son ,"You know I was really worried about you," ,"I know mom, I'm sorry," ,"No, this was something you had to do, my worry wouldn't have gotten you anywhere, I apologize," ,"You don't need to do that mom, I need to apologize for doing this to YOU." They both stopped talking and were solace that both were so understanding of the other's way of thinking. When they finally went inside he saw his father and sister sleeping on the couch seemingly waiting for his arrival back home. He was happy to see that his family cared about him, he turned to Ella ,"Goodnight mom, I love you," ,"I love you too Apollo."
In an infinite wasteland of burning, endless torment, pain, regret, rage and torture a man stood. ,"So this is hell in this Nexus," ??? said to himself. He looked around ,"Each time it's just less interesting, but the differences are always unique." ??? walked over to an ocean of boiling poison and blood, he walked right in without so much as his skin feeling any of the effect of the poison nor the heat. He kept walking down and saw the souls of the tormented clawing for the surface, a freedom that they would never get. What they saw as a few meters was celestial infinities of space nearly no one could ever reach.
,"This is a nice bath, but I need to grab what I need and get out of here," the man stretched out his senses and found the 4 men he was looking for. Using his power, he raised his hand in front of himself and commanded the souls to come forth. In an instant the 4 souls were looking at ??? in a voided cloak, grimacing. Looking at the man, they saw his misdeeds in every essence of his being. The man's aura shown mountains of bodies nobody could begin to count. These endless figures, transfigured and maimed they tried to convince themselves were fake, were talking to them ,"HELP US," ,"JUST KILL ME," ,"GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!" This horrific display convinced them that these were real people. To the utmost, they could only think one thing (This man is death and destruction incarnate). ,"I'm trying my best," the man replied. Terror inflicted on their astral entities continued as they got put into ???'s Storage Space. ,"Now we're finally starting to spice this story up."
