Who: Ken and Shinjiro and then Minato and then everyone else involved? : D? Where: Cherrygrove When: YESTERDAY NIGHT Summary: ... bad things happen. Rating: M for Mature, like P3. Log: ( And all the bright stars came out and shone in his defense. )
As if he had missed his train to school, this was the thought running through Shinjiro's mind as he headed towards the spot on the beach Ken had requested they meet. It wasn't just because it had taken him some time to give Minako his Pokemon, nor was it because he'd then had to drug her to make sure she didn't follow him.
He'd known from the start, from the day he arrived, he was on borrowed time. From the beginning, he'd known at some point, this little vacation had to come to an end. He was late for his death, and it was about time he stopped keeping the reaper waiting.
But before he could cross that bridge, first... First there was Ken to deal with. And there he was, alone on the beach.
Ken didn't turn around, listening for half a moment to the soft rush of waves. He closed his eyes, hand clenching hard on the wooden handle of the knife (which shone unpleasantly in the moonlight). This wasn't time for reminiscing and doubts. This was the time to move and finally finish the story that had begun more than two years ago, under a green moon.
"You came." His voice was harsh--more so than that of a normal child. Of course it still had that high pitch of a boy who hadn't yet met with puberty, but it dark enough to make up for that. Finally, he turned to Shinjiro. "I'm a few months late, now, and I would have preferred to meet during the Dark Hour. But that doesn't matter. You know why we're here."
Shinjiro was silent. He knew all of that. He also knew, or at least suspected, that Ken would have preffered that they'd been right on the dot, on October 4th. But with this crazy ass world getting in the way of that... well, it couldn't he helped.
He closed his eyes and looked down, raising a hand to feel in his coat. He'd left his pocket watch behind this time too. He'd heard what had - or what could have - happened. He'd gotten his extra time out of it, but now... No extra chances. No continues.
He opened his eyes again, waiting for Ken to continue. He had no intentions of defending what he did, and no intentions to try to get Ken to change his mind - not for his own sake, at least.
"I don't know if it was fortunate or unfortunate that Team Rocket brought you here, too. I hated it for a little while... but now I'm kind of glad they did." His stomach is twisting uncomfortably. Something inside of him nagged that he wasn't a killer, and there was no way he could actually do this. He shoved that feeling aside. "Do you know... when my mom died... they called it an accident? They set it up like a drunk driver crashed into my house.
"Nobody ever believed me about what really happened. You murdered her!"
