Chapter 195: Facing My Regrets Part 2 (2/2)
Destiny flinched rolling over, hiding her face. ”You're right… Marco… What the hell do I do without you?! I'm lost.”
Alton threw his sword away sighing. ”The better question is, what would Sam do?”
”She would probably beat us both up for fighting. She was always like that… Alton?”
”Yes.”
”I've changed my mind. I want to live. For Marco, for Sam.”
”Good… That's good.”
Destiny sat up, rubbing her face. ”I'm not quite sure what to do, to be honest. I always had the idea of running away and starting again. But now I'm clueless.”
”Streaming is always an option?” Jinx suggests.
Both her and Alton laugh. ”Streaming was never your strongest skill, was it?”
Destiny sniffed, losing her breath. ”No… I got banned three times for breach of services… Sam would give me hell for it.”
”Do something you want to do. Something new. You've got a second chance Destiny don't waste it.”
Destiny stood up, walking past everyone. ”I don't think I can ever forgive you for what you did… And something tells me you wouldn't want my forgiveness regardless. Tell me, can you beat him? Your father?”
”I can. I have to.”
”Ok. Take that son of a bitch down. For everyone at Sunset Peak. For Marco Sam and myself. And for you too Alton…”
Alton watched Destiny walk into the blizzard vanishing from sight. He smiled, faintly nodding. ”It's a promise.”
”What now? At this rate, Team Rhapsody might already be fighting Ragnar.”
”Help any survivors,” Alton whispered. ”You've done more than enough for me. Both of you, thank you so much for everything. I can take it from here. This is my fight and mine alone.”
”We understand. We believe in you, Alton.”
”Good luck, dude. Not that you need it. Show your old man who's boss.”
Diego and Jinx ran off to aid the others. Alton looked up at the wall seeing the storm intensifies. Gripping his fists, he began running to his fate, yelling out. ”Hang on just a little longer team. I'm coming!”
