A/N: Enjoy

Stelle POV

Me, Himeko and March were standing in front of Misha, as he revealed his true name....

Misha: Mikhail Char Legwork, or simply..... Misha

He smiled, tilting his head

Misha: If you prefer, you can call me by a more familiar name, the Watchmaker

March: So, you're the Watchmaker himself?

He shook his head, his smile slowly fading

Misha: Unfortunately, that legendary figure is no more. I'm only a reflection of his life... Or what 'he' saw me

Himeko: 'He'? Who is that 'He', if you don't mind me asking

Misha: It's a name the express is familiar with. His name was Y/N L/N

Our eyes grew wide, as we stayed silent

Stelle: He.... knew Y/N?

March: But how?! Y/N is still young!

Misha: Because-

Himeko: It's not the same Y/N....

Misha: Yes. However, even if they're not the same, they behave the same. Blunt, confident, funny, caring, joyful.....

A nostalgic smile found itself on his face, as he chuckled

Misha: He truly was a troublemaker though

Stelle: Could you.... tell us how he was?

Misha: How about I show you instead?

He smiled, before walking through a door, that closed itself right after

March: Should we....

Himeko: Stelle, the choice is yours. We will respect it, no matter what

Stelle: .....

I walked forward, before opening the door, blinded by the light

When I recovered my view, I was back in the express?

Stelle: What the...?

Pom-Pom: Hey! I told you already to stop eating that on the couch!

Turning around, I saw Pom-Pom, scolding someone, as that person was..

Stelle: Y/N?

Y/N(?): Huh?! You said it was ok last week! And now you're changing your mind?!

Pom-Pom: I don't care! That, or you clean it yourself!

Y/N(?): Alright Alright! I'm going to clean it

Pom-Pom: Thank yo-

Y/N(?): Sike! MIKHAIL, GIVE ME SOME MORE FROM YOUR STASH!

He ran off, laughing, as Pom-Pom was fuming

Pom-Pom: These 2 seriously! They will never grow up!

The scene changed, as now, Y/N was on the sofa, along Mikhail, a man who was standing on the side, a girl sitting at the table, and Pom-Pom, as they were holding cups

Y/N(?): Alright! I have some big news for everyone! 

Mikhail: Oh? It's quite rare that you of all people make an announcement

Girl: It's going to be trouble, isn't it?

Y/N(?): Shut up, Razalina, I'm having my moment

Man: Your moments always bring disaster...

Y/N(?): Huh?! Since when I bring disaster, Tiernan?! 

Mikhail: Because you always do stupid things.....

Y/N(?): That's why I always prefered Pom-Pom

Pom-Pom: I knew it! Hehe!

Razalina/Tiernan: Huh?!

Mikhail chuckled, as Y/N looked at them, smiling

Y/N(?): I have to part ways with you guys 

There was silence, as they couldn't believe their ear

Razalina: Nope, totally not happeneing

Tiernan: As if we're going to let you leave like that

Mikhail: ....

Y/N(?): I knew.... a group similar to ours. We went through a lot of hardship, fought against a universal calamity, and grew closer, like family... But my only regret, was that I never was able to tell them goodbye 

He got up, and extended his cup forward, smiling

Y/N(?): And now, I have the possibility to say goodbye to people I can consider as friends. I will not make the same mistake again 

They stayed silent, before Tiernan extended his cup too

Tiernan: Then you better not forget us, understood?

And right after, it was Razalina

Razalina: And you better pay us a visit, clear?! We won't take no as an answer!

The conductor was next, as he spoke up, his voice shaky

Pom-Pom: You're always welcome to get back here! Because after all!

The last one extended his cup, a gentle smile on his face

Mikhail: The express is a family you can consider yourself in

Y/N(?): Heh.... Then, let's cheer for the next destination you 3 will save: The land of dreams! 

They all cheered, and yelled

Astral Express: Cheers!

Y/N(?): Oh, by the way Mikhail, not gonna lie, I always saw you as a big kid 

Mikhail: Wha-?

Y/N(?): And so, your name is now Misha! 

Tiernan smiled, while Razalina laughed loudly

Razalina: It sounds so cute it's funny! Hahahahahaha!

Y/N(?): I know right?! Hahahahaha 

They both were laughing at his expense, as Mikhail's eyes were twitching in annoyance

Mikhail: Cut it off you 2...

Y/N(?): Misha sounds like the name of an errand boy! 

Razalina: Go fetch us some drinks, 'Misha'!

Mikhail: Shut it you 2!

Y/N(?) took the hat of Misha, and place it on his head, playfully rough

Y/N(?): Remember to always move forward, kid! Or else, I'm coming from the depth of the cosmos to kick your ass!

The scene slowly faded away with their laugh, as now, I saw Mikhail, alongside Gallagher

Gallagher: Old man, who is that 'Y/N' guy you've sent an invitation to?

Mikhail: Ah, it's an old friend of mine.... We parted ways before we arrived in Penacony... He was quite the man, you know? Always bringing trouble, always making pranks and making fun of others... Hehe, he even nicknamed me "Misha" as a joke....

Gallagher: He was quite the figure huh?

Mikhail smiled, but it was a sad smile

Mikhail: Yes... He was walking a path different than the nameless... Yet, he helped us out when he gained nothing to it... He's a strong one, able to surpass the schackles of destiny, by his own will...

The scene blacked out, as I looked forward, and see Y/N(?), walking forward

Mikhail: He changed many worlds with his attitude... Some love him, some hate him... Some even think he's not human... But they all changed for the better because of him...

I walked forward, toward Y/N(?), trying to catch up

Mikhail: The path in front of him is one of desolation and destruction...

The scenary changed, as in front of us was a zone of war, as I could hear the screams and fights all around

Mikhail: But he always find a way to brighten them all up... And changed their path to the better...

When Y/N(?) stepped forward, the scenary changed again, into a park, filled with life, as people were enjoying their moment, happy

Mikhail: His curse is one to be alone forever... 

We were back in the black void, as Y/N was standing, alone

Mikhail: But it doesn't mean people will not try to stay by his side....

Figures appeard at his side, chatting and laughing, as a light appeard in front of them

Mikhail: Because after all.... In the depth of our soul....

Y/N(?) turn around, before doing a peace sign, smiling happily, his eyes closed 

The voices of a lot of people echoed, as they all said the same thing

All: We are all Y/N L/N!

My eyes slowly opened, as I looked at Sunday who was waiting for my answer, as I smiled

Stelle: Y/N is someone dear to me... He always did his very best to help us, no matter what... He decided to look after me, even if he gained nothing but trouble....

Clockie appeard behind me, spinning, with a smile

Stelle: We don't know the burden he's carrying, and how much it affect him, since only him can handle it...

Firefly, March and Himeko walked forward, as the hat of Mikhail appeard in my hands

Stelle: "Trailblazing" means taking paths your predecessors foreswore, and venturing even further... The Penacony of Mikhail's dream, does not belong to "Order"

I put the hat on, with a smile on my face

Stelle: And I shall forge the path onward, so I can become someone's Y/N can be proud of

The gaze of Harmony fell upon us for a second, as I closed my eyes

Y/N, I'm sorry for being a burden at some times... I was acting as a child all this time, because I cared for you... I almost acted out of character sometimes to catch your attention. But after everything I saw thanks to Mikhail.... I need to grow

I need to be someone better, someone you can consider a closed one

I need to be myself

Narrator POV

Meanwhile, Y/N was walking around the street of Penacony, before he raised his head, and looked to a direction, with a proud smile

Y/N: Heh.... It seems she's doing her best, so I have to do it too.....

He smirked, walking forward, toward his next destination
