Short Story / The Beginning ((Part 3)) (Analysis)

I went back to our meeting point and found I was back there before Rev. I sighed and looked around the park and then back at the knife I had attached to my side. No one needed to see the knife that would undoubtedly come in handy in the near future.

“ I don’t understand why all of this has to happen now. I didn’t choose to be my fathers son, hell I didn’t even choose to be the person I have become, but I did choose to take revenge for my mother and my girlfriend and I will do it.” I said re-reading to note that the people who had killed my father left to me. One line stuck out more than any. ‘We’re going to have alot of fun with you first though, but dont worry you’ll die in the end…everyone does.’ I knew that everyone died, so why did these fiends…these subhuman swine have to screw around with my head. I hadn’t done anything to them, all I had done was lived and loved.

My thoughts swirled around in my head like an angry bee searching for someone to sting. All of the thoughts made my blood boil and I realized that I needed some form of release. I smiled when I realized right now all I wanted was a good fight to get rid of some of my pent up energy. I stood there with my sadistic smile thinking about all of the things I could do with the knife Rev gave me until I felt a hand on my shoulder.

“It’s nice to see you smiling, Skid, but really you’re scaring the people walking down the street with that one. Let’s get going. I have someone that were going to go meet. I believe that he will be the only one to tell us what’s really happening.” I nodded when Rev had finished and followed him out of the city. He didn’t look back at me or even say a word for what felt like hours, but when he did speak again I became angry.

“Skid, I know you want to figure all of this out, to avenge your mother and Mika but tell me is it all going to really be worth it? You’ll get your revenge and feel like you’ve done something amazing for what, a minute? What about after that? Are you really going to feel like living when you’re done? Once you’re revenge has been carried out, will….will you even need me anymore?” Rev asked his usualy strong and unwavering voice came out of his mouth in nothing more than a shallow defeated whisper. He didn’t look at me, he kept his eyes straight ahead looking around in the darkness for something.

“ All of it will be worth it when I know those bastards have paid for ruining my life.” I said looking at him with a quizzical look, knowing full well that he wasn’t looking at me. I couldn’t figure out why he sounded so forlorn, and I didn’t think that now was truly the time to try and figure it out.

Rev made an exasperated sound and looked to the side into the forest, he gave a funny half smile that I could see was being faked, but again I didn’t question him. He had always been my best friend and I knew that he would be able to help me.

He turned and looked at me nodding in the direction of an odd green light, I nodded my understanding and ran into the woods keeping my eyes right on that little green light.

“I’m glad you didn’t stick around, Skid. You don’t need to see me like this. No one needs to see me cry. Better yet no one needs to know I am in love with the only person I trust. I love you…..Skid.”
