Roristo Park, Country Z, 10:46 pm
"OMG, Natalia is that you! I haven't seen you in forever! Where have you been!" Becky said from the crowd on the sidewalk, at the sitting Natalia in the distance who looked completely dead and devoid of life.
"H-hey… are you okay? Are you sad that you weren't able to kill Jayden Griffith and get the love of your life to like you back? Don't worry! I am sure he will like you eventually! Never give up! And, by the way, are you okay? You don't look so good… Do you need any help?" Becky said with a concerned smile, taking a seat beside her.
"Oh-oh me! Nah! I am okay! I am just really tired and half asleep that's all! Please don't mind my appearance. And, as for Moby Kane, I already got over him. And I don't really care about killing Jayden Griffith anymore either." She replied in a normal tone of voice that did not at all reflect her appearance.
"Oh-okay… If you say so… You seemed pretty obsessed from before! I am glad that you are alright now!" She said with a smile.
"I heard that you were heavily poisoned from falling in a goblin trap. I hope that you are okay!" Natalia said with clear concern in her voice.
"Ohh! That? Don't bother! As you can see, I am completely fine! Fully healed!" Becky said with a chuckle.
"By the way, where have you been for the past 5 days? I have tried contacting you only to receive nothing back. I even tried to call your house to no avail as well. Do you want to talk about something?" Becky said with concern, looking straight in Natalia's dead gray eyes.
"Heh...Well, it's a long story but my family abandoned me for going against their wishes until I "learned my lesson." So, I have been roaming and living on the streets ever since." Natalia casually replied with an awkward chuckle.
"WHATT!! YOU HAVE BEEN LIVING ON THE STREETS FOR 5 DAYS!" She stood up, screaming out loud, grabbing the attention of everyone passing by.
"S-sorry, I didn't mean to blurt that out loud…" Becky said, sitting back down in embarrassment.
"*Sigh*, Yes, I have been living on the streets, getting involved in all kinds of shit to survive… It's a tough life…" Natalia replied.

"What the hell! You know that I am always here for you! You could have asked me to help you and take you in! We are besties after all! I have been living with my family for the past week so I could take you there until the problem with your family is resolved! I am sure they would not mind!" Becky said in clear outrage.
"Thank you for the offer but I will have to decline. I chose to do this on my own and not rely on others. I wanted to take responsibility for my actions and live all alone! I did not want to hide, run away or take the easy way out! That's not the kind of person I am and you know that. I regret nothing! Even when the worst of the worst happened to me by the hands of those gangs I still have no regrets! I have learned valuable lessons in life that I will never forget…" Natalia said with an awkward smile.
"N-Natalia… You have always been there for me in my times of need, always defending me at school… So please, let me help you in your time of need as well… I beg of you to listen to me and let me help you…" Becky said, tears flowing down her face.
At first, Becky started the conversation mostly concerned about her own safety. She thought that she was ignoring her because she was mad at her, putting their friendship in jeopardy which would make her a huge target at school once again. She was scared that she provided her with the wrong information about Jayden and that was why she was unable to kill her and get Moby Kane, making her extremely mad in the process.
So, she tried to do her best to damage control, acting as nice as possible in order to maybe salvage their relationship.
However, as she started to talk to Natalia more and more, she started to realize that she was not mad at her at all and was instead, having an extremely hard time in life as proved by her pale looking face, dead-looking eyes and shabby looking attire.
It made her realize that she had been acting really selfish, treating her best friend like nothing more than a tool than an actual person. Natalia had done so many things to help her survive at school while only asking so little in return. Plus, for as long as she had known her, she had been nothing but an honest and amazing friend, all up until she met and fell in love with that Moby Kane guy which didn't diminish all the good that she had done.

She felt really stupid for her actions. It made her heart crack and fall in pieces to see that the person who had helped her so much was in such a bad state, full of pain and agony while she only thought of herself.
"Hey… Natalia… I am sorry for everything… You have been nothing but an amazing friend to me and I acted really selfishly and wasn't there for you in your time of need. I am really glad that you moved on from Moby Kane which I think was for the best. After all the rumours about him getting a really strong ability, his popularity has skyrocketed immensely, who knows, he might even have his own fan club by now…He's a no-good trouble making manwhore! You don't need a guy like that! If he doesn't like you back then it was his loss! He didn't deserve your love! You have done so much for me and I have done so little back… So please, allow me to help you just this once, come live at my house… Just until you get the problem with your family resolved, my heart can't stand seeing you like this, in such a morbid state..." Becky spoke in a shaky voice, tears still running down her face.
Natalia in front of her who was previously dead-looking had a slight change of expression as her eyes became wide open before she hugged Becky with clear passion.
"You were indeed a great friend… A better friend than a filthy slut like me deserves... Sorry for using you during the exam… I now realize I shouldn't have done that... I was the one who planted that trap you fell in… Not Goblins… It was my fault that any of this was even happening… I have no choice in what I am about to do... I am sorry...."
"So…"
"Die…" She whispered in her ear before Becky felt a piercing pain in her stomach, looking down only to see a knife firmly planted in her gut with blood dripping and gushing out of it like a river.
"W-why… Why did you do this… After everything I've done for you…I thought we were supposed to be… friends..." Becky said with blurry vision, looking at the face of the crying Natalia in front of her before everything went blank.
"MURDER! This girl just killed someone!!" a passerby that witnessed everything that transpired screamed before running away as fast as possible, leading the crowd around him to move and follow his lead.
"Hey lady! Bold of you to just casually commit murder in front of me and such a large crowd! You're under arrest! If you try to resist I will take you down by force and increase the sentence and severity of your crimes!" A police officer that was in the crowd said, slowly approaching Natalia.
"Heh… Well… Finally... This is the end… I can finally die… Oh sweet, sweet death…" She said in the most bliss she had ever felt in her life, her mind and brain still completely broken before pulling out a button from her pockets, putting her hand over it about to press it.
"HEY! LADY! Are you even listening to me! Come quietly and I won't beat your ass to a pulp! You're lucky that I am one of the nicer police officers! Now get your ass..." The police officer continued rambling as Natalia didn't listen or pay him any heed, as the entire world around her looked like a complete blur and sounded like nothing more than static.
"Goodbye, Moby Kane… I will never forget you…" She said with a mellow smile on her face, tightly clenching her fists, tears running down her face, pressing the button that led to a huge explosion for the many bombs hidden on her, leaving absolutely nothing behind of her and Becky's corpse that was still laying on the ground next to her, completely dead with the knife still planted firmly in her gut.

That said this is no fanfiction, but rather my take on the whole story and a far more lewd take as well!
