Time is a complicated thing
~Penguin's POV~
It's been about five minutes since Seto left, I've been counting down the time since he left.
Suddenly, Seto teleports in, falling to the ground. "H-help!" He yells.
Summer hears this and comes in "what happened!?"
"Did you save them?" I ask.
He looks at me sadly, "Y-yes...but I think I made it worse for myself...I was in a car accident..." Seto quickly grabs his stomach in pain, looking at it he sees a piece of metal sticking out. "Penguin... You were right...I shouldn't have done that..."
Suddenly I feel pain everywhere and scream, falling to the ground.
I look over at Seto who tries to pull out the metal only to scream in pain and fall over. "I-I can't heal with it still in me..."
"Penguin? What's wrong? Why are you hurting!?" Summer asks, obviously confused by the situation.
I shake my head, "I don't know..."
Seto looks at Sean, "Sean...I...I need you to pull it out...please, it hurts..." He pleads.
Sean looks at him before pulling it out mercilessly, Seto screams in pain, blood pouring out of the wound before he passes out.
Summer grabs some bandages and goes over to him, she quickly wraps it around his waist before looking at me. "Does anyone else really want to know what happened? Because I do... "
I want to answer her but the pain keeps getting worse and I cant seem to concentrate."Why do I hurt everywhere?"
Summer looks at me confused, Sean looks at me and suddenly becomes panicked, "You have glass everywhere Penguin!
"Glass? How did you get glass everywhere?" Summer asks.
I look down at my hands and see I'm slowly fading away, "What's happening?!" Summer yells.
"I don't know..." I answer her.
~Flashback Seto's POV~
I sat in the car deeply upset. Penguin had bugged her parents enough and she was allowed to come hang out with me. We were driving and obviously my dad was drunk. He was about to hit two kids before a car came out of nowhere and hit us. A piece of metal hit my gut. I screamed in pain, but Penguin got the worst of it. Most of the windows hit her, so she was covered in glass. The two kids were fine and so was the other car. Penguin whispered to me before dying, "Make sure they are happy."
~Flashback over Summer's POV~
"What do we do!?" I yell looking at Penguin who is slowly disappearing.
"Someone needs to go back and fix this..." Seto, who just woke up, says. He sits up leaning against the couch for support.
"I'll do it." Sean volunteers.
"Are you sure?" Seto looks at him concerned.
Sean nods his head, Seto sighs before his eyes turn purple, "Just remember, don't let your past self see you, okay?"
"Okay." He says answers plainly.
"Πάρε με στο παρελθόν." Seto says out loud, soon Sean disappears and we are left here to play the waiting game.
~Sean's POV~
I close my eyes when he says the spell and when I open them I'm in a different place. I'm not at the scene of the car crash though, no, I'm at Penguin's house. Penguin is outside the front door talking to her parents, convincing them to let her go with Seto who is patiently waiting by the sidewalk.
"Hey Penguin!" I go up to her, she quickly turns around and smiles at me.
"Oh, hey Sean!" She greets me.
I quickly think of an excuse for her not to go, "Penguin, Avery is hurt, and she wants to see you. Now"
"Oh, is she okay? Where is she?" She asks in concern.
"She's in the hospital, you should go see her right now!" I yell.
Penguin looks at her parents and they nod to tell her to go, she looks at Seto who gives her a sad but understanding look, "Maybe I can come over next time?"
Seto smiles, "Okay Penguin, bye...I hope your friend is okay." He says before getting in the car, his Dad angrily yells at him for making him wait for so long.
"Alright, lets go see Avery!" Penguin exclaims.
"Actually, I have to do something quick, you go on ahead and I'll meet you there okay?" I tell her.
Penguin shrugs before starting to walk away, "Oh and Penguin...remember that if you ever hear voices in your head...don't freak out...and don't judge people by the way they act, sometimes they act that way for a reason."
Penguin looks at me confused, "Okay? You act as if this is the last time I'm going to see you." She laughs, "Bye Sean!" She walks off towards the hospital.
I sigh before running off to the site of the crash, and I get there right in time to see the car slide sideways and hit Avery and young me before flipping over till it stops on its side. Running over to the car I immediately open the door to the back seat, Seto weakly squirms around trying to get out the door but fails. Carefully, I drag him out trying not to hurt him anymore than he already is. His 'Dad' gets out, looks at me and Seto before running off.
Asshole.
Seto looks at me confused, "Sean..." He turns his head gently to the side to look at the two now dead kids then back at me, "H-How are you..."
"Doesn't matter. What happened, why did the car flip?" I ask while helping him sit up.
"I don't know..." He flinches when I touch his arm, "Everything hurts..." He says quietly.
I gently lay him back now, hearing the sirens in the distance tells me I don't have long.
"Am I going to die..." Seto looks at me sadly, his eyes filling with tears.
I shake my head, "No, you won't." I stand up and back away from him.
"Please don't leave me..." His hand reaches out for me, I back up more and his hand falls down on the ground and his eyes slowly close.
I sigh, purple sparks suddenly consume my vision, closing them quickly before opening them to see I'm back in the living room. Penguin is sitting on the couch next to Seto who is still reading his book, Penguin bothering him about the volume of the TV. Summer is in the kitchen, acting as if nothing happened.
Did it happen? What did I even do...I don't remember.
Seto smiles, still looking at his book, "Of course it happened."
I look at him confused, "What?" Seto looks up from his book at me.
"Oh, nothing." He says standing up, closing his book, "Time is...funny. When you go back and change just one thing it's like starting a book from that point you changed, and soon...a new book is created."
"Okay...?" I tell him, not completely understanding everything he said.
Seto starts walking away, but not before whispering something, "It's best you don't remember this, any of you."
"CAKE!" Summer yells before running in and tackling Penguin, both of them fall off the couch, I laugh at them.
I wonder what he meant? What am I supposed to remember...?
~Seto's POV~
It doesn't matter if they don't remember, anyways, I was being stupid. My emotions got to me and I did something stupid like normal. Nothing will matter soon anyways, we're all going to die in the end. Everyone leaves, everyone dies...and our story will end.
A/N There we go! A little short story for everyone to get to know Penguin and Sean a little bit better :) now, this idea was from a roleplay I did with penguinfan28 so it's not all my idea and she wrote a lot of it! Unfortunately, I couldn't find the roleplay for the second chapter so I had to go with what I remembered, so....yeah XD and I added my own My Ssundee twist on it at the end :3 please don't be mad! I know 'someone', you know who you are, gets a bit mad when I put that there, Lulz XD Don't worry! I was thinking of you when I typed it :3 hehe.
