Welcome to Gaia! ::

if only is was that simple..he stopped walking...they are the lingering souls of the first 3 i killed my father who was killed by me when i was born and my mother who comitted suicide when she first saw me..and my older brother who tried to kill me when he was entrusted to raise me...he continued to walk away...they torture me trying to make me end the lives of those i care for...they will pay

Jon looked down.

"I see you've had it hard too. I killed my father when he came at me with a shotgun one night. My mother tried to stop him, but he hit her on the head and she died in a coma four months later. I've not had it easy, being bounced around from foster home to foster home either." Jon walked a bit closer.

"You'd think that I'd be bitter to the point of wanting to go on a mass murdering spree as well...but I just can't do that. I vowed to never hurt a single human being after what I did to my father. I, too, have heard the voices. I've fought them off successfully. They barely torment me, now. I wouldn't let them win then, and I won't let them win now." Jon looked back up, a big smile on his face.

"You can fight it too. I know you can."

Jon didn't let his gaze leave the other for a moment.

"Shion!"

"coming? Im not stopping.. IF he wants to kill.. How many people for my sake il let him!"
Shion stopped and looked back
"Im bored with this.. coming or not.. i dont mind leaving you behind"

"please.. Just leave him alone.."
Shions face frowned as she rushed out fo the town alone
"its not like i hate him.. i just dont want grim geting hurt.. and if im neer him i think i make it worse.. So im leaving.."
Shion covers her eyes trying hard not to cry to hard
"im.. going to give up.."

Jon's face softened a bit at the sight of Shion crying once again.

"Oh jeez, don't cry Shion. I don't want to kill him. I honestly think I can get through to him. Didn't you see the way he responded to what I said? I honestly think I might have gotten somewhere. Even if it was very little, it was still something." Jon smiled.

"I have a feeling he might be okay. But we need to hurry to the next town before he does. I don't want another town full of corpses."

Jon's stomach growled in response to that.

"Guess my stomach's complaining too, huh?" He chuckled.

"Let's go. We're both far better off on a full stomach." Jon decided to stay in town just a bit more, until they found something to eat.

"I'm sure there are stores in this town. Nobody's alive, I do not think they'll mind if we help ourselves...do you?"
